Dear Shareholder

I am writing to inform you that the Annual General Meeting (the 'Meeting') of the Company will be held at 10.00 a.m. on Thursday, 11 February 2016 at Hangar 89, London Luton Airport, Luton, Bedfordshire, LU2 9PF. The formal notice of the Meeting and resolutions to be proposed are set out in Part II on page 10 of this document.

If you would like to vote on the resolutions but cannot come to the Meeting, you can appoint another person as your proxy to exercise all or any of your rights to attend, vote and speak at the Meeting by using one of the methods set out in the notes to the notice of the Meeting.

The purpose of this letter is to explain certain elements of the business to be considered at the Meeting. Resolutions 1 to 17 inclusive are proposed as ordinary resolutions, while Resolutions 18 to 20 inclusive are proposed as special resolutions.

Annual report and accounts for the year ended 30 September 2015 (Resolution 1)

Shareholders will be asked to receive the Annual report and accounts for the year ended 30 September 2015. The Annual report and accounts was published and made available to shareholders on 4 December 2015.

Directors' Remuneration Report (Resolution 2)

Resolution 2 seeks shareholder approval for the Annual Statement by the Chairman of the Remuneration Committee and the Annual Report on Remuneration which can be found on pages 64 to 80 (inclusive) of the Annual report and accounts. The Annual Report on Remuneration gives details of the implementation of the Company's current remuneration policy in terms of the payments and share awards made to the Directors in connection with their performance and that of the Company during the year ended 30 September 2015. This vote is advisory and will not affect the way in which the pay policy has been implemented or the future remuneration that is paid to any Director.

The Company's auditors during the year, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, have audited those parts of the Directors' Remuneration Report that are required to be audited and their report relating to the Directors' Remuneration Report can be found on page 89 of the Annual report and accounts.

At the 2015 Annual General Meeting, the Directors' Remuneration Policy was approved by shareholders. The Directors' Remuneration Policy is not therefore required to be approved at this year's Meeting. The policy will be put to shareholders again no later than the Company's Annual General Meeting in 2018.

Payment of ordinary dividend (Resolution 3)

An ordinary dividend of 55.2 pence per ordinary share for the year ended 30 September 2015 is recommended for payment by the Directors. If shareholders approve the recommended ordinary dividend, this will be paid on Friday, 18 March 2016 to all shareholders who are on the register of members at the close of business at 5.00 p.m. on Friday, 26 February 2016 with an ex-dividend date of Thursday, 25 February 2016. Payments will be made by cheque or BACS (where there is an existing dividend mandate). The ordinary dividend equates to an aggregate distribution to shareholders of approximately £219 million.

Election / re-election of Directors (Resolutions 4 to 13 inclusive)

In accordance with the UK Corporate Governance Code, which provides for all directors of companies forming part of the FTSE 350 to be subject to annual re-election by shareholders, all of the Board is standing for re-election (or in the case of Andrew Findlay, who was appointed as an Executive Director of the Company on 2 October 2015, and Chris Browne, who was appointed as a Non-Executive Director of the Company on 1 January 2016, election) by shareholders at this year's Meeting.

Resolutions 5, 7, and 9 to 13 (inclusive) relate to the election of Chris Browne, and to the re-election of Charles Gurassa, Adèle Anderson, Dr. Andreas Bierwirth, Keith Hamill, Andy Martin and Francois Rubichon who are the Directors that the Board has determined are independent directors for the purposes of the UK Corporate Governance Code (the 'Independent Directors'). Under the Listing Rules, because Sir Stelios Haji-Ioannou, easyGroup Holdings Limited, Polys Haji-Ioannou and Clelia Haji-Ioannou together comprise controlling shareholders of the Company (that is, they exercise or control in concert more than 30% of the voting rights of the Company), the election or re-election of any

Independent Director by shareholders must be approved by a majority vote of both:

(1) the shareholders of the Company; and
(2) the independent shareholders of the Company (that is the shareholders of the Company entitled to vote on the election of Directors who are not controlling shareholders of the Company).

Resolutions 5, 7, and 9 to 13 (inclusive) are therefore being proposed as ordinary resolutions which all shareholders may vote on, but in addition the Company will separately count the number of votes cast by independent shareholders in favour of the resolution (as a proportion of the total votes of independent shareholders cast on the resolution) to determine whether the second threshold referred to in (2) above has been met. The Company will announce the results of the resolutions on this basis as well as announcing the results of the ordinary resolutions of all shareholders.

Under the Listing Rules, if a resolution to re-elect an Independent Director is not approved by a majority vote of both the shareholders as a whole and the independent shareholders of the Company at the Annual General Meeting, a further resolution may be put forward to be approved by the shareholders as a whole at a meeting which must be held more than 90 days after the date of the first vote but within 120 days of the first vote. Accordingly, if any of Resolutions 5, 7, and 9 to 13 (inclusive) is not approved by a majority vote of the Company's independent shareholders at the Meeting, the relevant Director(s) will be treated as having been re-elected only for the period from the date of the Meeting until the earlier of: (i) the close of any general meeting of the Company, convened for a date more than 90 days after the Meeting but within 120 days of the Meeting, to propose a further resolution to re-elect him or her; (ii) the date which is 120 days after the

Meeting; and (iii) the date of any announcement by the Board that it does not intend to hold a second vote. In the event that the Director's re-election is approved by a majority vote of all shareholders at a second meeting, the Director will then be re-elected until the next Annual General Meeting.

The Company is also required to provide details of: (i) any previous or existing relationship, transaction or arrangement between an Independent Director and the Company, its Directors, any controlling shareholder or any associate of a controlling shareholder; (ii) why the Company considers the proposed Independent Director will be an effective Director; (iii) how the Company has determined that the proposed Director is an Independent Director; and (iv) the process by which the Company has selected each Independent Director. This is set out below:

Previous/existing relationships: The Company has received confirmation from each of the Independent Directors that, except as disclosed below, there is no existing or previous relationship, transaction or arrangement that the Independent Directors have or have had with the Company, its Directors, any controlling shareholder or any associate of a controlling shareholder.

• The Independent Directors from time to time attend networking or fundraising events with or at the invitation of other Directors but the Board is satisfied that this has no bearing on their independence.

Effectiveness: Biographical details of each of the Directors, who are all seeking re-election, or in the case of Andrew Findlay, seeking election, appear on pages 48 and 51 of the Annual report and accounts. Chris Browne was appointed as a Non-Executive Director with effect from 1 January 2016. Chris was formerly Chief Operating Officer of TUI Airlines and is also a Non-Executive Director at Bovis Homes Group

PLC and sits on its Audit, Remuneration and Nomination committees. Further biographical details of Chris Browne can be found on the Company's website: http://corporate.easyjet.com/. The biographical details set out the experience which each Independent Director has. The Board considers, following a formal external performance evaluation (as referred to on page 61 of the Annual report and accounts), that each Director continues to contribute effectively and to demonstrate commitment to his or her role. This consideration of effectiveness is based on, amongst other things, the business skills, industry experience, business model experiences and other contributions individuals may make (including diversity considerations), both as an individual and also in contributing to the balance of skills, knowledge and capability of the Board as a whole, as well as the commitment of time for Board and committee meetings and other duties.

Independence: Each Independent Director's independence was determined by reference to the relevant provisions of the UK Corporate Governance Code. The Board also considers that each of the Independent Directors is independent in character and judgement and that there are no relationships or circumstance which are likely to affect, or could appear to affect, his/her judgement.

Selection: While the Board's practice is to use external search consultants for appointing Directors, there are occasions where an individual with particular relevant qualifications is identified as a potential candidate to join the Board as a Non-Executive Director. This was the case with Chris Browne and therefore no external search consultancy or open advertising was used. Once the Nomination Committee became aware of her availability, it reviewed her experience and skills and she was interviewed by members of the Board. She was appointed to become a Non-Executive Director with effect from 1 January 2016.

PART I CONTINUED

Auditors (Resolutions 14 and 15)

The Company is required at each general meeting at which the Company's Annual report and accounts for the previous financial year are presented to appoint auditors to hold office until the next such meeting. Following the conclusion of an external audit tender carried out in compliance with the UK Corporate Governance Code in the year ended 30 September 2015, Resolution 14 is recommended by the Board and proposes the re-appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as auditors to the Company. Resolution 15 authorises the Audit Committee to fix the remuneration of the auditors.

Political donations and political expenditure (Resolution 16)

Resolution 16 is designed to deal with rules on political donations and expenditure contained in Part 14 of the Companies Act 2006 (the 'Act') (Sections 362 to 379). Under Section 378 of the Act, a company may not make donations to an EU political party, or other EU political organisation, or to an independent election candidate in the EU, of more than £5,000 in total, or incur any EU political expenditure, without first obtaining the authority of shareholders.

Although the Company does not make and does not intend to make political donations to political parties or political organisations or independent election candidates, or to incur political expenditure, the legislation is very broadly drafted and may catch such activities as funding seminars or functions to which politicians are invited, or may extend to bodies concerned with policy review, law reform and representation of the business community that the Company and its subsidiaries might wish to support. Accordingly, the Directors have decided to put forward this Resolution to renew the authority granted by shareholders at the Annual General Meeting of the Company held on

11 February 2015 to permit political donations and political expenditure in case any of its activities in its normal course of business are caught by the legislation.

This authority will cover the period from the date Resolution 16 is passed until the end of the 2017 Annual General Meeting of the Company, or if earlier, on 11 May 2017. As permitted under the Act, Resolution 16 also covers any political donations made, or any political expenditure incurred, by any subsidiaries of the Company.

Authority of Directors to allot shares (Resolution 17)

Under Section 551 of the Act, the directors of a company are not permitted to allot shares (or grant certain rights over shares) unless authorised to do so by shareholders.

At the last Annual General Meeting of the Company held on 12 February 2015, the Directors were given authority to allot relevant securities within the meaning of Section 551 of the Act up to an aggregate nominal amount of £10,838,107 representing approximately 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital on 11 January 2015, being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of the notice of that Annual General Meeting. This authority expires at the end of this year's Meeting.

The Investment Association ('IA') guidelines on directors' authority to allot shares state that IA members will regard as routine resolutions seeking authority to allot shares representing up to one-third of a company's issued share capital. In light of these guidelines, your Board considers it appropriate that the Directors be granted an authority to allot shares in the capital of the Company and Resolution 17 gives the Directors the necessary authority to allot shares up to an aggregate nominal amount of £10,838,107. This amount is equivalent to approximately 10% of the issued share capital of the Company on

11 January 2016 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this document). The power will last until the end of the 2017 Annual General Meeting of the Company or, if earlier, on 11 May 2017. This authority will be subject to the Company's authorised share capital limit, also taking into account the share capital reserved for issue under the terms of the Company's share option schemes.

The Directors do not have any present intention to exercise this authority. However, the Directors consider it appropriate to maintain the flexibility that this authority provides. It is intended to renew this authority at successive Annual General Meetings. The Company does not currently hold any of its shares in treasury.

Disapplication of pre-emption rights (Resolution 18)

If the Directors wish to exercise the authority under Resolution 17 and offer unissued shares for cash, the Act requires that, unless shareholders have given specific authority for the waiver of their statutory pre-emption rights by way of special resolution, the new shares be offered first to existing shareholders in proportion to their existing shareholdings. In certain circumstances, it may be in the best interests of the Company to allot shares (or to grant rights over shares) for cash without first offering them to existing shareholders in proportion to their holdings. Resolution 18 would authorise the Directors to disapply the strict statutory pre-emption provisions.

This would provide the Directors with a degree of flexibility to act in the best interests of the Company so that: (i) the Company can follow normal practice in the event of a rights issue, open offer or other offer of securities in favour of the existing shareholders in proportion to their shareholdings; and (ii) a limited number of shares may be issued for cash to persons other than existing shareholders.

In compliance with the IA guidelines described in Resolution 17 above, this authority will permit the Directors to allot:

(a) shares up to an aggregate nominal amount of £10,838,107 (representing approximately 10% of the Company's issued share capital) on an offer to existing shareholders on a pre-emptive basis (subject to any adjustments, such as for fractional entitlements and overseas shareholders, as the Directors see fit); and
(b) shares up to a maximum aggregate nominal amount of £5,419,053, representing approximately 5% of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 11 January 2016 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this document) otherwise than in connection with an offer to existing shareholders.

The Directors have no present intention of exercising this authority. If given, the authority will expire at the conclusion of the 2017 Annual General Meeting of the Company or 11 May 2017, if earlier.

The Directors confirm their intention to follow the provisions of the Pre-emption Group's Statement of Principles regarding cumulative usage of authorities within a rolling three-year period. These principles provide that companies should not issue shares for cash representing more than 7.5% of the company's issued share capital in any rolling three-year period, other than to existing shareholders, without prior consultation with shareholders.

Your Directors believe that the authority sought in this Resolution is in the best interests of the Company and note that it complies with the IA guidelines and the Pre-emption Group's Statement of Principles.

PART I CONTINUED

Purchase of own shares (Resolution 19)

Resolution 19 gives the Company authority to buy back its own ordinary shares in the market as permitted by the Act. The authority limits the number of shares that could be purchased to a maximum of 39,720,813 representing approximately 10% of the Company's existing issued ordinary share capital as at 11 January 2016 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this document) and sets minimum and maximum prices. This authority will expire at the conclusion of the 2017 Annual General Meeting of the Company, or if earlier, on 11 May 2017.

Your Directors are of the opinion that it would be advantageous for the Company to be in a position to purchase its own shares should such action be deemed appropriate by the Board. The Directors have no present intention of exercising the authority to purchase the Company's ordinary shares but will keep the matter under review, taking into account the financial resources of the Company, the Company's share price and future funding opportunities. The authority will be exercised only if the Directors believe that to do so would result in an increase in earnings per share and would be in the interests of shareholders generally. Other investment opportunities, gearing levels and the overall position of the Company will be taken into account in reaching such a decision. Any purchases of ordinary shares would be by means of market purchases through the London Stock Exchange.

As a result of Sir Stelios, Clelia and Polys Haji-Ioannou and their shareholding vehicles having previously been deemed by the Takeover Panel to be concert parties for the purposes of the Takeover Code, any market purchase would most likely be subject to prior consultation with the Takeover Panel and would be likely to require further shareholder approval. This is because, unless the concert party position is deemed to have changed, a market purchase of the Company's shares would increase the percentage of voting rights in which the Haji-Ioannou concert parties are interested in a situation where they are already interested in at least 30% of the Company's voting rights and so technically trigger a mandatory offer obligation under Rule 9 of the Takeover Code.

Listed companies purchasing their own shares are allowed to hold them in treasury as an alternative to cancelling them. No dividends are paid on shares whilst held in treasury and no voting rights attach to treasury shares.

If Resolution 19 is passed at the Meeting and any purchases were made, it is the Company's present intention that it would cancel all of the shares it may purchase pursuant to the authority granted to it. However, in order to respond properly to the Company's capital requirements and prevailing market conditions, the Directors would need to reassess at the time of any and each actual purchase whether to hold the shares in treasury or cancel them, provided it was permitted to do so.

As at 11 January 2016 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this document), there were warrants and options over 5,825,934 ordinary shares in the capital of the Company representing 1.47% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital. If the authority to purchase the Company's ordinary shares was exercised in full, these warrants and options would represent 1.63% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital.

Length of notice of general meetings other than AGMs (Resolution 20)

Resolution 20 is a resolution to allow the Company to hold general meetings (other than Annual General Meetings) on 14 days' notice.

The minimum notice period for general meetings of listed companies is 21 days, but companies may reduce this period to 14 days (other than for Annual General Meetings) provided that:

(a) the company offers a facility for shareholders to vote by electronic means. This condition is met if the company has a facility enabling all shareholders to appoint a proxy by means of a website; and
(b) on an annual basis, a shareholders' resolution approving the reduction of the minimum notice period from 21 days to 14 days is passed.

The Board is therefore proposing Resolution 20 as a special resolution to approve 14 days as the minimum period of notice for all general meetings of the Company other than Annual General Meetings. The approval of this Resolution will be effective until the end of the 2017 Annual General Meeting of the Company, when it is intended that the approval will be renewed.

It is widely acknowledged that the ability of companies to hold meetings at short notice is important and commercially desirable in certain circumstances. The Directors realise that this must be balanced against the need for shareholders to have sufficient time to evaluate, investigate and comment upon any issues relating to general meeting motions in particular where the proposals are of such complexity that shareholders require more time to consider their voting decision.

The Board's intention is not therefore to use this shorter notice period other than in limited exceptional circumstances which are time-sensitive, rather than as a matter of routine, and only where the flexibility is merited by the business of the meeting and is thought to be in the interests of shareholders as a whole. The Directors do not have any current intention to exercise this authority but consider it appropriate to ensure that the Company has the appropriate flexibility to respond to all eventualities.

Action to be taken

You will find enclosed a Form of Proxy for use at the Meeting. Please complete, sign and return the enclosed form as soon as possible in accordance with the instructions printed thereon whether or not you intend to be present at the Meeting. Forms of Proxy should be returned so as to be received by the Company's registrars, Equiniti, Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex, BN99 6DA as soon as possible and in any event no later than 10.00 a.m. on 9 February 2016, being 48 hours before the time appointed for the Meeting.

Recommendation

The Board considers that all the resolutions in the notice of the Meeting are likely to promote the success of the Company and are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders as a whole. Your Directors unanimously recommend that you vote in favour of the Resolutions as they intend to do in respect of their own beneficial holdings which amount in aggregate to 394,985 shares representing approximately 0.10% of the existing issued ordinary share capital of the Company as at 11 January 2016, being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this document.

Yours faithfully

John Barton
Chairman

A member can appoint more than one proxy in relation to the Meeting, provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attaching to a different share or shares held by him/her. Completion and submission of an instrument appointing a proxy will not preclude a member from attending and voting in person at the Meeting.

3. A proxy need not be a member of the Company but must attend the Meeting in person to represent you. Your proxy could be the Chairman, another Director of the Company or another person who has agreed to attend to represent you. Your proxy must vote as you instruct and must attend the Meeting for your vote to be counted. Unless you are appointing the Chairman as your proxy, please check with your appointed proxy prior to appointing him/her that he/she intends to attend the Meeting. Details of how to appoint the Chairman or another person as your proxy using the Form of Proxy are set out on the Form of Proxy and in its notes. Appointing a proxy does not preclude you from attending the Meeting and voting in person on any matters in respect of which the proxy or proxies is or are appointed but in the event that and to the extent that you personally vote your shares, your proxy shall not be entitled to vote and any vote cast by your proxy in such circumstances shall be ignored.

4. A Form of Proxy, which may be used to make this appointment of proxy and give proxy instructions, accompanies this notice. To be valid, the Form of Proxy for use at the Meeting: (i) shall be in writing made under the hand of the appointor or of his/her attorney duly authorised in writing or, if the appointor is a corporation, under its common seal or under the hand of some officer or attorney or other person duly authorised in that behalf (and the signature on the appointment of proxy need not be witnessed); and (ii) must be received, together with the power of attorney or other authority (if any) under which it is authenticated, or a certified copy of such authority or in some other way approved by the Board, by the Company's registrars, Equiniti Limited, at Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex BN99 6DA not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the Meeting being not later than 10.00 a.m. on 9 February 2016.

5. A copy of this notice has been sent for information only to persons who have been nominated by a member of the Company to enjoy information rights under Section 146 of the Companies Act 2006 (a 'Nominated Person'). The rights to appoint a proxy cannot be exercised by a Nominated Person; they can only be exercised by the member. However, a Nominated Person

NOTES CONTINUED

may have a right under an agreement between him/her and the member by whom he/she was nominated to be appointed as a proxy for the Meeting or to have someone else so appointed. If a Nominated Person does not have such a right or does not wish to exercise it, he/she may have a right under such an agreement to give instructions to the member as to the exercise of voting rights.

1. If you are a Nominated Person, you have been nominated to receive general shareholder communications directly from the Company but it is important to remember that your main contact in terms of your investment remains as it was (i.e. the registered member of the Company, or perhaps the custodian or broker, who administers the investment on your behalf). Therefore, any changes or queries relating to your personal details and holding (including any administration thereof) must continue to be directed to your existing contact at your investment manager or custodian. The Company cannot guarantee dealing with matters that are directed to it in error. The only exception to this is where the Company, in exercising one of its powers under the Companies Act 2006, writes to you directly for a response.

2. To change your proxy instructions you may return a new Form of Proxy using the methods set out below. Please contact the Company's registrars, Equiniti Limited at Aspect House, Spencer Road, Lancing, West Sussex BN99 6DA if you require another Form of Proxy. The deadline for receipt of proxy appointments (see above) also applies in relation to amended instructions. Any attempt to terminate or amend a proxy appointment received after the relevant deadline will be disregarded. Where two (or more) valid but differing appointments of proxy are received in respect of the same share(s) for use at the same meeting and in respect of the same matter, the one which is last validly received (regardless of its date or of the date of its execution or submission) shall be treated as replacing and revoking the other or others as regards the relevant share(s). If the Company is unable to determine which appointment was last validly received, none of them shall be treated as valid in respect of the relevant share(s).

3. Shareholders who prefer to register the appointment of their proxy electronically via the internet can do so through Equiniti's website at www.sharevote.co.uk where full instructions on the procedure are given. The Voting ID, Task ID and Shareholder Reference Number printed on the Form of Proxy will be required in order to use this electronic proxy appointment system. Alternatively, shareholders who have already registered with Equiniti's online portfolio service, Shareview, can appoint their proxy electronically by logging on to their portfolio at www.shareview.co.uk and then clicking on the link to vote under their easyJet plc holding details. The on-screen instructions give details on how to complete the appointment process. A proxy appointment made electronically will not be valid if sent to any address other than those provided or if received after 10.00 a.m. on Tuesday 9 February 2016.

4. CREST members who wish to appoint a proxy or proxies through the CREST electronic proxy appointment service may do so for the Annual General Meeting to be held on 11 February 2016 and any adjournment(s) thereof by using the procedures described in the CREST Manual on the Euroclear website (www.euroclear.com). CREST personal members or other CREST sponsored members, and those CREST members who have appointed a voting service provider(s), should refer to their CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s), who will be able to take the appropriate action on their behalf.

5. In order for a proxy appointment or instruction made using the CREST service to be valid, the appropriate CREST message (a 'CREST Proxy Instruction') must be properly authenticated in accordance with Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited's specifications and must contain the information required for such instructions, as described in the CREST Manual. The message regardless of whether it constitutes the appointment of a proxy or an amendment to the instruction given to a previously appointed proxy must, in order to be valid, be transmitted so as to be received by the Company's agent (ID RA19) by 10.00 a.m. on Tuesday 9 February 2016 (the latest time for receipt of proxy appointments specified in this notice of Meeting). For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the message by the CREST Applications Host) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the message by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. After this time any change of instructions to proxies appointed through CREST should be communicated to the appointee through other means.

6. CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers should note that Euroclear UK & Ireland Limited does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the input of CREST Proxy Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST personal member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider(s), to procure that his/her CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a message is transmitted by means of the CREST system by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service provider(s) are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

7. The Company may treat as invalid a CREST Proxy Instruction in the circumstances set out in Regulation 35(5)(a) of the Uncertificated Securities Regulations 2001.

8. Please note that the Company takes all reasonable precautions to ensure no viruses are present in any electronic communication it sends out but the Company cannot accept responsibility for loss or damage arising from the opening or use of any email or attachments from the Company and recommends that shareholders subject all messages to virus checking procedures prior to use. Please note that any electronic communication received by the Company that is found to contain any virus will not be accepted.

9. A member of the Company which is a corporation may authorise a person or persons to act as its representative(s) at the Meeting. In accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006, each such representative may exercise (on behalf of the corporation) the same powers as the corporation could exercise if it were an individual member of the Company, provided that they do not do so in relation to the same shares.

10. Members satisfying the thresholds in Section 527 of the Companies Act 2006 can require the Company to publish a statement on its website setting out any matter relating to (a) the audit of the Company's accounts (including the auditor's report and the conduct of the audit) that are to be laid before the Meeting; or (b) any circumstances connected with an auditor of the Company ceasing to hold office since the last Annual General Meeting, that the members propose to raise at the Meeting. The Company cannot require the members requesting the publication to pay its expenses. Any statement placed on the

website must also be sent to the Company's auditors no later than the time it makes its statement available on the website. The business which may be dealt with at the Meeting includes any statement that the Company has been required to publish on its website.

1. The Company must cause to be answered at the Meeting any question relating to the business being dealt with at the Meeting which is put by a member of the Company attending the Meeting, except: (i) if to do so would interfere unduly with the preparation for the Meeting or involve the disclosure of confidential information; or (ii) if the answer has already been given on a website in the form of an answer to a question; or (iii) if it is undesirable in the interests of the Company or the good order of the Meeting that the question be answered.

2. As at 11 January 2016, being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this document, the Company's issued share capital consists of 397,208,133 ordinary shares, carrying one vote each. Therefore the total voting rights in the Company are 397,208,133.

3. Voting on the resolutions will be conducted by way of a poll rather than a show of hands. This is a more transparent method of voting as shareholder votes are to be counted according to the number of shares held. As soon as practicable after the Meeting, the results of the voting at the Meeting and the number of proxy votes cast for and against and the number of votes actively withheld in respect of each resolution will be announced via a Regulatory Information Service and also placed on the Company's website: http://corporate.easyjet.com/.

4. The following information is available on the Company's website (http://corporate.easyjet.com/): (i) the contents of this notice of the Meeting; (ii) details of the total number of shares in respect of which members are entitled to exercise voting rights at the Meeting; and (iii) the following interests which have been disclosed to the Company since 30 September 2015 in accordance with the FCA's Disclosure and Transparency Rules (DTR) (a) Directors' interests under DTR 3.1.2; and (b) the interests of persons with disclosable interests in the Company's issued ordinary shares under DTR 5. If applicable, any members' statements, members' resolutions or members' matters of business received by the Company after the date of this notice will also be made available on the Company's website.

5. Copies of the terms and conditions of appointment of Non-Executive Directors are available for inspection at the registered office of the Company during normal business hours on any weekday and will be available at the place of the Meeting from 15 minutes prior to the commencement of the Meeting until the conclusion thereof.

6. You may not use any electronic address provided in this notice of Meeting to communicate with the Company for any purposes other than those expressly stated.

7. Dividends will be paid by the Company's registrars, Equiniti, in the manner that you have instructed them to make dividend payments, which will be by cheque or direct payment. A tax voucher will be issued or made available on-line. Participants in the easyJet employee share schemes will be sent a separate communication explaining the payment of the ordinary dividend in respect of their shares in employee share schemes.
