Update to Virgin Australia's Next Generation Retail Project

Dublin, Ireland, 13 September 2023: Datalex plc ("Datalex", the "Company" or
the "Group") (Euronext Growth Dublin: DLE), announces an update on Virgin
Australia's Next Generation Retail Project.

During the course of the program, Virgin Australia's priorities with respect
to its Next Generation Retail program have changed leading to the decision to
end its program with Datalex and other impacted vendors. The decision was made
following a thorough internal review of the program.

While this is a great disappointment to both Datalex and the Virgin Australia
teams who have worked on this project for over 18 months, the parties have
reached a mutual agreement on the terms of the cancellation.

Datalex recognises that in the rapidly evolving world of airline recovery and
growth, combined with digital change and investment, customers will change
pace and direction from time to time.

Datalex is in the business of Transforming Airline Retail but recognise that
timing is in the hands of our customers, and we respect and understand this.

David Hogarth, Chief Information Officer of Virgin Australia said: "Throughout
our collaboration, both parties worked diligently to achieve shared objectives
outlined in the agreement. As our strategies evolve, we have collectively
agreed to conclude the contract, with mutual respect and understanding. We
remain open to potential future collaborations and value the positive
interactions we've had during our partnership."
