                           Results of General Meeting

   The Company announces  the voting  results of the  General Meeting  ("GM")
   held earlier today at Hangar 89, London Luton Airport, Luton LU2 9PF. 

    

   The GM  was convened  to consider  a resolution  to approve  the  proposed
   purchase of 56 Airbus A320neo family aircraft and conversion of 18 A320neo
   family aircraft  to  A321neo aircraft,  as  set out  in  the  announcement
   released on 21  June 2022 and  the Circular (including  the Notice of  GM)
   published on 27 June 2022.

    

   The resolution was passed with the requisite majority and the poll results
   are set out below.

    

   Commenting on the General Meeting, easyJet Chair, Stephen Hester said:

    

   “The Board believes  the aircraft purchase  will support positive  returns
   for the  business and  the  delivery of  our strategic  objectives.  We’re
   pleased with  the strong  support that  shareholders have  shown today  by
   approving the resolution.”

      pursuant to
      the 2022
      Amendments

   Notes:

    1. Based on total issued share capital of 758,010,025 ordinary shares.
    2. A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted towards votes
       cast “For” or “Against” a resolution.

    

   The total voting rights of the Company as at Monday, 18 July 2022, such
   date being the last day by which shareholders were required to be
   registered in the register of members in order to be eligible to vote at
   the GM, were 758,010,025.

    

   As set out in the Notice of GM, the Board is ensuring that the Company
   complies with European ownership and control requirements by exercising
   its powers to suspend voting rights of certain UK and non-EU nationals. At
   the time of the GM, the level of ownership by EU persons was 39.9% and
   accordingly, the Company has suspended voting rights in respect of certain
   shares ("Affected Shares") held by non-EU shareholders and the polling
   results noted above reflect these actions. Such Affected Shares continued
   to count in the calculation of issued share capital and total voting
   rights of the Company.

    

   National Storage Mechanism

   In accordance with LR 9.6.2, a copy of the resolution has been submitted
   to the FCA’s National Storage Mechanism and will shortly be available to
   view at  1 https://data.fca.org.uk/#/nsm/nationalstoragemechanism.
