                           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 approving the purchase of 157
   A320neo family  aircraft and  purchase rights  for a  further 100  A320neo
   family aircraft (the “Proposed Purchase”)  as set out in the  announcement
   released on 12 October 2023 and the Circular (including the Notice of  GM)
   published on 29 November 2023.

    

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

    

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

    

   “The Board believes  the Proposed Purchase  will support positive  returns
   for the business and forms  a core part of  the delivery of our  strategic
   objectives.  We  are  therefore  pleased  with  the  strong  support  that
   shareholders have shown today by approving the transaction.”

      and further
      explained

      Circular)

   Notes:

    1. Based on total issued share capital of 758,010,025 ordinary shares (as
       at 15 December 2023).
    2. A vote withheld is not a vote in law and is not counted towards votes
       cast “For” or “Against” a resolution.
    3. The total voting rights of the Company on 15 December 2023 were
       758,010,025.
    4. 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 35.71% 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
