The Return of Cash amounts to €0.2942 per Existing Ordinary Share and is being effected by means of a B Share scheme. This gives Shareholders (other than Restricted Shareholders and ADS Holders, all of whom will receive the B Share Dividend) a choice as to the form in which they receive their proceeds from the Return of Cash - redemption proceeds (the Redemption Option) or dividend income (the B Share Dividend).
 
Shareholders (other than Restricted Shareholders and ADS Holders) who wish to receive the B Share Dividend must complete and return a valid Form of Election or submit a valid USE Instruction (as the case may be) prior to 1.00 p.m. on 5 November, 2015.
 
Shareholders (other than Restricted Shareholders and ADS Holders) who wish to receive their proceeds in the form of a redemption need take no further action as any eligible Shareholders who do not complete and return a Form of Election or submit a valid USE Instruction prior to 1.00 p.m. on 5 November, 2015 will be deemed to have elected for the Redemption Option.
 
In order to try to maintain (subject to market fluctuations) the market price for Ordinary Shares at approximately the same level as immediately prior to the implementation of the Return of Cash, a Capital Reorganisation, entailing a Share Consolidation on the basis of 39 New Ordinary Shares for every 40 Existing Ordinary Shares, is being implemented.
 
Application has been made to the Irish Stock Exchange and the UK Listing Authority for  1,319,320,802 ordinary shares of nominal value €0.006 in the capital of the Company (being the New Ordinary Shares in issue on completion of the Share Consolidation) to be admitted to the Official List of the Irish Stock Exchange and the Official List of the UK Listing Authority and application has been made to the Irish Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange for these New Ordinary Shares to be admitted to trading on the respective main markets for listed securities of the Irish Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange. 
 
The New Ordinary Shares in issue on completion of the Share Consolidation will be equivalent in all material respects to the Existing Ordinary Shares, including as to dividend, voting and other rights.
 
Admission is expected to be effective on 28 October, 2015 at 8.00 a.m. in accordance with the dates set out below.
