Annual General Meeting

9 February 2023

The following resolutions concerning special business were passed at easyJet plc's Annual General Meeting held on 9 February 2023:

Ordinary Resolutions

Resolution 14 - Authority to make Political Donations

THAT in accordance with sections 366 and 367 of the Act, the Company and all companies which are subsidiaries of the Company at the date on which this Resolution 14 is passed or during the period when this Resolution 14 has effect be generally and unconditionally authorised to:

  • (a) make political donations to political parties or independent election candidates not exceeding £5,000 in total;
  • (b) make political donations to political organisations other than political parties not exceeding £5,000 in total; and
  • (c) incur political expenditure not exceeding £5,000 in total,

(as such terms are defined in the Act) during the period beginning with the date of the passing of this Resolution and ending on the earlier of the end of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company or close of business on 8 May 2024 provided that the authorised sum referred to in paragraphs (a), (b) and (c) above, may be comprised of one or more amounts in different currencies which, for the purposes of calculating the said sum, shall be converted into pounds sterling at the exchange rate published in the London edition of the Financial Times on the date on which the relevant donation is made or expenditure incurred (or the first business day thereafter) or, if earlier, on the day on which the Company enters into any contract or undertaking in relation to the same provided that, in any event, the aggregate amount of political donations and political expenditure made or incurred by the Company and its subsidiaries pursuant to this Resolution 14 shall not exceed £15,000.

Resolution 15 - Authority to allot shares

THAT, in substitution for all existing authorities, the directors be generally and unconditionally authorised in accordance with section 551 of the Act to exercise all the powers of the Company to allot shares in the Company or grant rights to subscribe for or to convert any security into shares in the Company:

  • (a) up to an aggregate nominal amount of £68,253,388; and
  • (b) comprising equity securities (as defined in section 560(1) of the Act) up to a further aggregate nominal amount of £68,253,388 in connection with an offer by way of a rights issue,

such authorities to apply until the earlier of the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company or close of business on on 8 May 2024 unless previously renewed, varied or revoked by the Company in general meeting but, in each case, so that the Company may make offers and enter into agreements before the authority expires which would, or might, require shares to be allotted or rights to subscribe for or to convert any security into shares to be granted after the authority expires and the directors may allot shares or grant such rights under any such offer or agreement as if the authority had not expired. References in this Resolution 15 to the nominal amount of rights to subscribe for or to convert any security into shares (including where such rights are referred to as equity securities as defined in section 560(1) of the Act) are to the nominal amount of shares that may be allotted pursuant to the rights.

For the purposes of this Resolution 15 "rights issue" means an offer to:

  • (i) ordinary shareholders in proportion (as nearly as may be practicable) to their existing holdings; and
  • (ii) holders of other equity securities, as required by the rights of those securities or, subject to such rights, as the directors otherwise consider necessary,

to subscribe for further securities by means of the issue of a renounceable letter (or other negotiable document) which may be traded for a period before payment for the securities is due, including an offer to which the directors may impose any limits or restrictions or make any other arrangements which they consider necessary or appropriate to deal with treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates, legal, regulatory or practical problems in, or under the laws of, any territory or any other matter.

    • (i) ordinary shareholders in proportion (as nearly as may be practicable) to their existing holdings; and
    • (ii) people who hold other equity securities if this is required by the rights of those securities or, if the Directors consider it necessary, as permitted by the rights of those securities, and so that the Directors may impose any limits or restrictions and make any arrangements which they consider necessary or appropriate to deal with treasury shares, fractional entitlements, record dates, legal, regulatory or practical problems in, or under the laws of, any territory or any other matter; and

and shall expire upon the earlier of the conclusion of the next Annual General Meeting of the Company or close of business on 8 May 2024, unless previously renewed, varied or revoked by the Company in general meeting, but, in each such case, that the Company may before such expiry make an offer or agreement which would or might require equity securities to be allotted (and/or treasury shares to be sold) after such expiry and the Directors may allot equity securities (and/or sell treasury shares) in pursuance of such offer or agreement as if the power conferred hereby had not expired.
