The purpose of the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) on 28
January 2021 is to seek approval of certain resolutions relating to
the replacement of the CREST system with a system operated by
Euroclear Bank for the electronic settlement of trading in the
Company's shares. Further details are set out in the Notice of EGM,
published on 24 December 2020 and available on our website at

COVID-19 Restrictions
The Company considers the well-being of shareholders, employees
and other stakeholders a top priority and will conduct the EGM in
accordance with the Irish Government's COVID-19 related public
health measures and public health advice, aimed at reducing the
transmission of COVID-19.
As a result of the latest measures put in place by the
Government under the 'Framework for Restrictive Measures',
shareholders should expect the EGM to take place under constrained
circumstances. In particular, the Board is advising that the EGM
will now be held effectively as a closed meeting, as the Company
will not be in a position to allow physical attendance for
shareholders. The Company will ensure that all legal requirements
of the meeting, in accordance with its Articles of Association, are
satisfied with the minimum necessary quorum of three shareholders
which will be facilitated by the Company.
Shareholder Participation
While personal attendance by shareholders will not be
permissible, the Company recognises the importance of continuing
engagement in the lead up to the EGM.
We encourage all shareholders to vote by proxy in advance of the
EGM as described in the published Notice of EGM (available on our
website, together with a Form of Proxy). Proxies must be received
by no later than 10.30 a.m. on Tuesday, 26 January 2021.

Further Updates
We will continue to closely monitor the evolving situation
around the COVID-19 pandemic, including the latest Government and
public health guidance, and how this may affect the arrangements
