	3.3.1	The Board is authorised to issue all or any of the authorised but unissued preferred shares from time to time in one or more classes or series, and to fix for each such class or series such voting power, full or
limited, or no voting power, and such designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or
resolutions adopted by the Board providing for the issuance of such class or series, including, without limitation, the authority, prior to the issuance thereof, to fix: 

 

	 	a)	the number of shares to constitute such series and the distinctive designations thereof; 

  

	 	b)	the dividend rate or rates to which such shares shall be entitled and the restrictions, limitations and conditions upon the payment of such dividends, whether dividends shall be cumulative or non-cumulative and, if
cumulative, the date or dates from which dividends shall accumulate, the dates on which dividends, if declared, shall be payable, and the preferences or relations to the dividends payable on any other series of preferred shares; 

 

	 	c)	whether or not such series shall be redeemable, and if so, the limitations and restrictions with respect to such redemptions, the manner of selecting shares of such series for redemption if less than all shares are to
be redeemed, the redemption price and the amount, if any, in addition to any accrued dividends thereon, which the holder of shares of such series shall be entitled to receive upon the redemption thereof; 

  
 16 

	 	d)	subject to the Acts, the terms, conditions, and amount of any sinking fund provided for the purchase or redemption of the shares in the series; 

 

	 	e)	the amount in addition to any accrued dividends thereon which the holders of shares of such series shall be entitled to receive upon the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the
corporation, which amount may vary depending on whether such liquidation, dissolution, or winding up is voluntary or involuntary and, if voluntary, may vary at different dates; 

 

	 	f)	subject to the Acts, whether or not the shares of such series shall be subject to the operation of a purchase, retirement or sinking fund, and, if so, whether such purchase, retirement or sinking fund shall be
cumulative or non-cumulative, the extent and the manner in which such fund shall be applied to the purchase or redemption of the shares of such series for retirement or to other corporate purposes and the terms and provisions relative to the
operation thereof; 

  

	 	g)	whether or not the shares of such series shall be convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or classes, or of any other series of the same class, and if so convertible or exchangeable, the price
or prices or the rate or rates of conversion or exchange and the method, if any, for adjusting the same; 

  

	 	h)	the voting powers, if any, of such series in addition to the voting powers provided by law; except that such powers shall not include the right to have more than one vote per share; 

 

	 	i)	any other preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and qualifications, limitations, or restrictions thereof as shall not be inconsistent with law or with this article.

  

	  	Notwithstanding the fixing of the number of shares constituting a particular series upon the issuance thereof, the Board of Directors may at any time thereafter, subject to the Acts, authorise the issuance of additional
shares of the same series, or decrease the number of shares constituting such series (but not below the number of shares of such series then outstanding). The Board may at any time before the allotment of any preferred share by further resolution in
any way amend the designations, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations or restrictions, or vary or revoke the designations of such preferred shares. 

  

	3.3.2	All shares of any one series of preferred shares shall be identical with all other shares of the same series except that shares of any one series issued at different times may differ as to the dates from which dividends
thereon shall be cumulative; and all series shall rank equally and be identical in all respects, except as permitted by the foregoing provisions of article 3.3.1. 

  
 17 

	3.3.3  (a)	The holders of preferred shares shall be entitled to receive cash dividends when and as declared by the Board of Directors at such rate per share per annum, cumulatively if so provided, and with such preferences, as
shall have been fixed by the Board of Directors, before any dividends shall be paid upon or declared and set apart for the ordinary shares or any other class of share ranking junior to the preferred shares, and such dividends on each series of the
preferred shares shall cumulate, if at all, from and after the dates fixed by the Board of Directors with respect to such cumulation. Accrued dividends shall bear no interest. 

 

	 	(b)	If dividends on the preferred shares are not declared in full then dividends shall be declared ratably on all shares of each series of equal preference in proportion to the respective unpaid cumulative dividends, if
any, to the end of the then current dividend period. No ratable distribution shall be declared or set apart for payment with respect to any series until accumulated dividends in arrears in full have been declared and paid on any series senior in
preference. 

  

	 	(c)	Unless dividends on all outstanding shares of series of the preferred shares having cumulative dividend rights shall have been fully paid for all past dividend periods, and unless all required sinking fund payments, if
any, shall have been made or provided for, no dividend (except a dividend payable in ordinary shares or in any other class of share ranking junior to the preferred shares) shall be paid upon or declared and set apart for the ordinary shares or any
other class of share ranking junior to the preferred shares. 

  

	 	(d)	Subject to the foregoing provisions, the Board of Directors may declare and pay dividends on the ordinary shares and on any class of share ranking junior to the preferred shares, to the extent permitted by law, after
full dividends for the current dividend period, and, in the case or preferred shares having cumulative dividend rights after all prior dividends have been paid or declared and set apart for payment, the holders of the ordinary shares shall be
entitled, to the exclusion of the holders of the preferred shares, to all further dividends declared and paid in such current dividend period 

  

	3.3.4	 In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntary or involuntary, before any payment or distribution of the
assets of the Company shall be made to or set apart for the holders of shares of any class or classes of shares of the Company ranking junior to the preferred shares, the holders of the shares of each series or the preferred shares shall be entitled
to receive payment of the amount per share fixed in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors providing for the issuance of the shares of such series, plus an 

  
 18 

	 	
amount equal to all dividends accrued thereon to the date of final distribution to such holders; but they shall be entitled to no further payment. If, upon any liquidation, dissolution or winding
up of the Company, the assets of the Company, or proceeds thereof, distributable among the holders of the shares of the preferred shares shall be insufficient to pay in full the preferential amount aforesaid, then such assets, or the proceeds
thereof, shall be distributed among such holders rateably in accordance with the respective amount which would be payable on such shares if all amounts payable thereon were paid in full. For the purposes of this article 3.3.4, the sale, conveyance,
exchange, or transfer (for cash, shares of stock, securities or other consideration) of all or substantially all of the property or assets of the Company or a consolidation or merger of the Company with one or more companies shall not be deemed to
be a dissolution, liquidation or winding up, voluntary or involuntary. 

  

	3.3.5	Redemption: 

  

	 	(a)	Subject to the express terms of each series and to the provisions of Part XI of the 1990 Act, the Company (i) may from time to time redeem all or any part of the preferred shares of any series at the time in issue
at the option of the Board at the applicable redemption price for such series fixed in accordance with the provisions of article 3.3.1, or (ii) shall from time to time make redemptions of the preferred shares as may be required to fulfil the
requirements of any sinking fund provided for shares of such series at the applicable sinking fund redemption price fixed in accordance with the provisions of article 3.3.1, together in each case with accrued and unpaid dividends to the redemption
date. 

  

	 	(b)	Shares of any series of preferred shares which have been issued and reacquired in any manner by the Company (excluding shares purchased and cancelled and shares which, if convertible or exchangeable, have been converted
into or exchanged for shares of any other class or classes) shall be restored to the status of authorised and unissued preferred shares and may be reissued as a part of the series of which they were originally a part or may be reclassified and
reissued as part of a new series of preferred shares or as part of any other series of preferred shares, all subject to the conditions or restrictions on issuance fixed by the Board of Directors with respect to the shares of any other series of
preferred share. 

  

	3.3.6	 Except as otherwise specifically provided herein or in the authorising resolutions, none of the shares of any series of preferred shares shall be
entitled to any voting rights and the ordinary shares shall have the exclusive right to vote for the election of directors and for all other purposes. So long as any shares of any series of preferred shares are outstanding, the Company shall not,
without the consent of the holders of a majority of the then outstanding shares of preferred shares, irrespective of series, either expressed in writing (to the extent permitted by law) or by their affirmative vote at a meeting called for that
purpose; (i) adopt 

  
 19 

	 	
any amendment to the Articles of Association or take any other action which in any material respect adversely affects any preference, power, special right, or other term of the preferred shares
or the holders thereof; (ii) create or issue any class of stock entitled to any preference over the preferred shares as to the payment of dividends, or the distribution of capital assets, (iii) increase the aggregate number of shares
constituting the authorised preferred shares, or (iv) create or issue any other class of stock entitled to any preference on a parity with the preferred shares as to the payment of dividends or the distribution of capital assets.

  

	3.3.7	If in any case the amounts payable with respect to any obligations to redeem preferred shares are not available in full in the case of all series with respect to which such obligations exist, the number of shares of
each of such series to be redeemed pursuant to any such obligations shall be in proportion to the respective amounts which would be available on account of such obligations if all amounts payable in respect of such series were discharged in full.

  

	3.3.8	Subject to the Acts, the preferred shares may be issued by the Company from time to time for such consideration as may be fixed from time to time by the Board of Directors. Any and all shares for which the consideration
so fixed shall have been paid or delivered shall be deemed fully paid and non-assessable. 

  

	3.3.9	For the purpose of the provisions of this article 3.3 or of any resolution of the Board of Directors providing for the issuance of any series of preferred shares (unless otherwise provided in any such resolution):

  

	 	a)	the term “outstanding”, when used in reference to shares, shall mean issued shares, excluding shares held by the Company and shares called for redemption, funds for the redemption of which shall have been set
aside or deposited in trust; 

  

	 	b)	the amount of dividends “accrued” on any preferred share as at any dividend date shall be deemed to be the amount of any unpaid dividends accumulated thereon to and including such dividend date, whether or not
earned or declared, and the amount of dividends “accrued” on any preferred share as at any date other than a dividend date shall be calculated as the amount of any unpaid dividends accumulated thereon to and including the last preceding
dividend date, whether or not earned or declared, plus an amount equivalent to interest on the involuntary liquidation value of such share at the annual dividend rate fixed for the shares of such series for the period after such last preceding
dividend date to and including the date as of which the calculation is made; and 

  

	 	c)	the term “class or classes of share of the Company ranking junior to the preferred shares” shall mean the ordinary shares of the Company and any other class or classes of share of the Company hereafter
authorised, which shall rank junior to the preferred shares as to dividends or upon liquidation. 

  
 20 

	3.4.    (A)	If an ordinary share is not listed on a recognised stock exchange within the meaning of the 1990 Act, it shall be automatically converted into a Redeemable Share on, and from the time of, the existence or creation of an
agreement, transaction or trade (“arrangement”) between the Company and any person pursuant to which the Company acquires or will acquire ordinary shares, or an interest in ordinary shares, from the relevant person. In these circumstances,
the ordinary share concerned shall have the same characteristics as any other ordinary share in accordance with these articles save that it shall be redeemable in accordance with the arrangement. The acquisition of such ordinary shares in accordance
with this article 3.4(A) by the Company shall constitute the redemption of a Redeemable Share in accordance with Part XI of the 1990 Act. 

  

	 	(B)	If an ordinary share is listed on a recognised stock exchange within the meaning of the 1990 Act, the provisions of clause 3.4(A) above shall apply unless the Board resolves prior to the existence or creation of any
relevant arrangement, that the arrangement concerned is to be treated as an acquisition of shares pursuant to article 4.2 in which case the arrangement shall be so executed. 

 

	3.5     (a)	The holders of the deferred ordinary shares shall not be entitled to receive any dividend or distribution and shall not be entitled to receive notice of, nor to attend, speak or vote at any general meeting of the
Company. On a return of assets, whether on liquidation or otherwise, the deferred ordinary shares shall entitle the holder thereof only to the repayment of the amounts paid up on such shares after repayment of the capital paid up on the ordinary
shares plus the payment of €5,000,000 on each of the ordinary shares and the holders of the deferred ordinary shares (as such) shall not be entitled to any further participation in the assets or profits of the Company. 

 

	 	(b)	The special resolution passed on the date of adoption of these Articles (the “Adoption Date”) shall be deemed to confer irrevocable authority on the Company at any time after the date of adoption of these
Articles: 

  

	 	(i)	to acquire all or any of the fully paid deferred ordinary shares otherwise than for valuable consideration in accordance with section 41(2) of the 1983 Act and without obtaining the sanction of the holders thereof;

  

	 	(ii)	to appoint any person to execute on behalf of the holders and the deferred ordinary shares remaining in issue (if any) a transfer thereof and/or an agreement to transfer the same otherwise than for valuable
consideration to the Company or to such other person as the Company may nominate. 

  
 21 

	 	(iii)	to cancel any acquired deferred ordinary shares; and 

  

	 	(iv)	pending such acquisition and/or transfer and/or cancellation to retain the certificate (if any) for such deferred ordinary shares. 

  

	 	(c)	In accordance with the Companies Acts, the Company may cancel such shares and may reduce the amount of the share capital by the nominal value of the shares so cancelled and the Directors may take such steps as are
requisite to enable the Company to carry out its obligations, insofar as may be permitted under the Companies Acts, in this regard. 

  

	 	(d)	The following provision shall apply in relation to the redemption by the Company of the deferred ordinary shares: 

  

	 	(i)	The Company may, subject to the provisions of the Companies Acts and subject to the following provisions in this Article, redeem all or any of the deferred ordinary shares at any time prior to 1 January 2025;

  

	 	(ii)	The amount payable on any redemption or purchase of deferred ordinary shares effected pursuant to the provisions of this Article and shall be a total of €1.00 for all deferred ordinary shares redeemed by the
Company at any time; 

  

	 	(iii)	The Company shall give the holders of the deferred ordinary shares to be redeemed not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of the date fixed for redemption. Any such notice, and any written communication between
the Company and the holder of the deferred ordinary shares specifying a date for redemption, shall specify the place at which the certificate(s) of such deferred ordinary shares are to be presented for redemption, and upon such date each of the
holders of the deferred ordinary shares concerned shall be bound to deliver to the Company at such place the certificate(s) for those deferred ordinary shares in order that the same may be cancelled and upon such delivery, the Company shall pay to
the holder thereof the amount due in respect of such redemption as hereinbefore provided. If requested, the Company shall also issue a balance certificate for the number of deferred ordinary shares (if any) held by the holder of the deferred
ordinary shares; and 

  

	 	(iv)	Upon the date fixed for redemption, the deferred ordinary shares to be redeemed shall be automatically cancelled irrespective of whether the holders of the deferred ordinary shares have delivered their share
certificate(s) or the amount due to them has been cancelled. 

  
 22 

	 	(e)	Neither the acquisition by the Company otherwise than for valuable consideration of all or any of the deferred ordinary shares nor the redemption thereof nor the cancellation therefor by the Company in accordance with
this Article shall constitute a variation or abrogation of the rights or privileges attached to the deferred ordinary shares and accordingly the deferred ordinary shares or any of them may be so acquired, redeemed and cancelled without any such
consent or sanction on the part of the holders thereof. The rights conferred upon the holders of the deferred ordinary shares shall not be deemed to be varied or abrogated by the creation of further shares ranking in priority thereto or parri
passu therewith. 

  

	4.	Subject to the provisions of Part XI of the 1990 Act and the other provisions of this article, the Company may: 

  

	4.1.	pursuant to section 207 of the 1990 Act, issue any shares of the Company which are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the Company or the member on such terms and in such manner as may be
determined by the Company in general meeting (by Special Resolution) on the recommendation of the Directors; 

  

	4.2.	subject to and in accordance with the provisions of the Acts and without prejudice to any relevant special rights attached to any class of shares pursuant to section 211 of the 1990 Act, acquire any of its own shares
(including any Redeemable Shares and without any obligation to acquire on any pro rata basis as between members or members of the same class) and may cancel any shares so acquired or hold them as treasury shares (as defined in section 209 of the
1990 Act) and may reissue any such shares as shares of any class or classes; or 

  

	4.3.	pursuant to section 210 of the 1990 Act, convert any of its shares into Redeemable Shares. 

  

	5.	Without prejudice to any special rights previously conferred on the Holders of any existing shares or class of shares, any share in the Company may be issued with such preferred or deferred or other special rights or
such restrictions, whether in regard to dividend, voting, return of capital or otherwise, as the Company may from time to time by Ordinary Resolution determine. 

  

	6.	

  

	6.1.	 Without prejudice to the authority conferred on the Directors pursuant to article 3 to issue preferred shares in the capital of the Company, if at any
time the share capital is divided into different classes of shares the rights attached to any class may, whether or not the Company is being wound up, be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the Holders of three- fourths of the issued
shares in that class, or with the sanction of a Special Resolution passed at 

  
 23 

	 	
a separate general meeting of the Holders of the shares of that class, provided that, if the relevant class of Holders has only one Holder, that person present in person or by proxy, shall
constitute the necessary quorum. To every such meeting the provisions of article 52 shall apply. 

  

	6.2.	The redemption or purchase of preferred shares or any class of preferred shares shall not constitute a variation of rights of the preferred Holders where the redemption or purchase of the preferred shares has been
authorised solely by a resolution of the ordinary Holders. 

  

	6.3.	The issue, redemption or purchase of any of the 10,000,000 preferred shares of US$0.0001 each shall not constitute a variation of the rights of the Holders of ordinary shares. 

 

	6.4.	The issue of preferred shares or any class of preferred shares which rank junior to any existing preferred shares or class of preferred shares shall not constitute a variation of the existing preferred shares or class
of preferred shares. 

  

	7.	The rights conferred upon the Holders of the shares of any class issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the shares of that class, be deemed to be
varied by the creation or issue of further shares ranking pari passu therewith. 

  

	8.	

  

	8.1.	Subject to the provisions of these articles relating to new shares, the unissued shares of the Company shall be at the disposal of the Directors, and they may (subject to the provisions of the Acts) allot, grant options
over or otherwise dispose of them to such persons, on such terms and conditions and at such times as they may consider to be in the best interests of the Company and its members, but so that no share shall be issued at a discount save in accordance
with sections 26(5) and 28 of the 1983 Act, and so that, in the case of shares offered to the public for subscription, the amount payable on application on each share shall not be less than one-quarter of the nominal amount of the share and the
whole of any premium thereon. 

  

	8.2.	Subject to any requirement to obtain the approval of members under any laws, regulations or the rules of any stock exchange to which the Company is subject, the Board is authorised, from time to time, in its discretion,
to grant such persons, for such periods and upon such terms as the Board deems advisable, options to purchase or subscribe for such number of shares of any class or classes or of any series of any class as the Board may deem advisable, and to cause
warrants or other appropriate instruments evidencing such options to be issued. 

  
 24 

	8.3.	The Directors are, for the purposes of section 20 of the 1983 Act, generally and unconditionally authorised to exercise all powers of the Company to allot and issue relevant securities (as defined by the said section
20) up to the amount of Company’s authorised share capital and to allot and issue any shares acquired by the Company pursuant to the provisions of Part XI of the 1990 Act and held as treasury shares and this authority shall expire five years
from the date of adoption of these articles of association. 

  

	8.4.	The Directors are hereby empowered pursuant to sections 23 and 24(1) of the 1983 Act to allot equity securities within the meaning of the said section 23 for cash pursuant to the authority conferred by article 8.3 as if
section 23(1) of the said 1983 Act did not apply to any such allotment. The Company may before the expiry of such authority make an offer or agreement which would or might require equity securities to be allotted after such expiry and the Directors
may allot equity securities in pursuance of such an offer or agreement as if the power conferred by this paragraph had not expired. 

  

	8.5.	Nothing in these articles shall preclude the Directors from recognising a renunciation of the allotment of any shares by any allottee in favour of some other person. 

 

	9.	The Company may pay commission to any person in consideration of a person subscribing or agreeing to subscribe, whether absolutely or conditionally, for any shares in the Company or procuring or agreeing to procure
subscriptions, whether absolute or conditional, for any shares in the Company on such terms and subject to such conditions as the Directors may determine, including, without limitation, by paying cash or allotting and issuing fully or partly paid
shares or any combination of the two. The Company may also, on any issue of shares, pay such brokerage as may be lawful. 

  

	10.	Except as required by law, no person shall be recognised by the Company as holding any share upon any trust, and the Company shall not be bound by or be compelled in any way to recognise (even when having notice
thereof) any equitable, contingent, future or partial interest in any share or any interest in any fractional part of a share or (except only as by these articles or by law otherwise provided) any other rights in respect of any share except an
absolute right to the entirety thereof in the Holder. This shall not preclude the Company from requiring the members or a transferee of shares to furnish the Company with information as to the beneficial ownership of any share when such information
is reasonably required by the Company. 

  

	11.	The shares of the Company may be either represented by certificates or, if the conditions of issue of the relevant shares so provide, by uncertificated shares. Except as required by law, the rights and obligations of
the Holders of uncertificated shares and the rights and obligations of the Holders of shares represented by certificates of the same class shall be identical. 

  
 25 

	12.	Such certificates may be under seal. The Board may authorise certificates to be issued with the seal and authorised signature(s) affixed or printed by some method or system of mechanical or electronic process. Any
person claiming a share certificate to have been lost, destroyed or stolen, shall make an affidavit or affirmation of that fact, and if required by the Board shall advertise the same in such manner as the Board may require, and shall give the
Company, its transfer agents and its registrars a bond of indemnity, in form and with one or more sureties satisfactory to the Board or anyone designated by the Board with authority to act thereon, whereupon a new certificate may be executed and
delivered of the same tenor and for the same number of shares as the one alleged to have been lost, destroyed or stolen. 

Disclosure of beneficial ownership 
  

	13.	If at any time the Directors are satisfied that any member, or any other person appearing to be interested in shares held by such member: 

 

	13.1.	(x) has been duly served with a Section 81 Notice and is in default for the prescribed period (as defined in article 13.6(b)) in supplying to the Company the information thereby required; or (y) in purported
compliance with such a notice, has made a statement which is false or inadequate in a material particular, then the Directors may, in their absolute discretion at any time thereafter by notice (a “direction notice”) to such member direct
that: 

  

	 	a)	in respect of the shares in relation to which the default occurred (the “default shares”) the member shall not be entitled to attend or to vote at a general meeting either personally or by proxy or to exercise
any other right conferred by membership in relation to meetings of the Company; and 

  

	 	b)	where the nominal value of the default shares represents at least 0.25 per cent of the nominal value of the issued shares of the class concerned, then the direction notice may additionally direct that:

  

	 	(i)	except in a liquidation of the Company, no payment shall be made of any sums due from the Company on the default shares, whether in respect of capital or dividend or otherwise, and the Company shall not have any
liability to pay interest on any such payment when it is finally paid to the member; 

  

	 	(ii)	no other distribution shall be made on the default shares; and / or 

  

	 	(iii)	no transfer of any of the default shares held by such member shall be registered unless: 

  
 26 

	 	1)	the member is not himself in default as regards supplying the information requested and the transfer when presented for registration is accompanied by a certificate by the member in such form as the Directors may in
their absolute discretion require to the effect that after due and careful enquiry the member is satisfied that no person in default as regards supplying such information is interested in any of the shares the subject of the transfer; or

  

	 	2)	the transfer is an approved transfer (as defined in article 13.6(c)). 

  

	    	The Company shall send to each other person appearing to be interested in the shares the subject of any direction notice a copy of the notice, but the failure or omission by the Company to do so shall not invalidate
such notice. 

  

	13.2.	Where any person appearing to be interested in the default shares has been duly served with a direction notice or copy thereof and the default shares which are the subject of such direction notice are held by an
Approved Nominee, the provisions of this article shall be treated as applying only to such default shares held by the Approved Nominee and not (insofar as such person’s apparent interest is concerned) to any other shares held by the Approved
Nominee. 

  

	13.3.	Where the member upon whom a Section 81 Notice is served is an Approved Nominee acting in its capacity as such, the obligations of the Approved Nominee as a member of the Company shall be limited to disclosing to
the Company such information as has been recorded by it relating to any person appearing to be interested in the shares held by it. 

  

	13.4.	Any direction notice shall cease to have effect: 

  

	 	a)	in relation to any shares which are transferred by such member by means of an approved transfer; or 

  

	 	b)	when the Directors are satisfied that such member, and any other person appealing to be interested in shares held by such member, has given to the Company the information required by the relevant Section 81 Notice.

  

	13.5.	The Directors may at any time give notice cancelling a direction notice. 

  

	13.6.	For the purposes of this article: 

  

	 	a)	a person shall be treated as appearing to be interested in any shares if the member holding such shares has given to the Company a Section 81 Notice which either (a) names such person as being so interested or
(b) fails to establish the identities of all those interested in the shares and (after taking into account the said notification and any other relevant Section 81 Notice) the Company knows or has reasonable cause to believe that the person
in question is or may be interested in the shares; 

  
 27 

	 	b)	the prescribed period is 28 days from the date of service of the said Section 81 Notice unless the nominal value of the default shares represents at least 0.25 per cent of the nominal value of the issued
shares of that class, in which case the prescribed period is 14 days from that date; and 

  

	 	c)	a transfer of shares is an approved transfer if but only if: 

  

	 	(i)	it is a transfer of shares to an offeror by way or in pursuance of acceptance of an offer made to all the Holders (or all the Holders other than the person making the offer and his nominees) of the shares in the Company
to acquire those shares or a specified proportion of them; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the Directors are satisfied that the transfer is made pursuant to a sale of the whole of the beneficial ownership of the shares the subject of the transfer to a party unconnected with the member and with other persons
appearing to be interested in such shares; or 

  

	 	(iii)	the transfer results from a sale made through a stock exchange on which the Company’s shares are normally traded. 

  

	 	d)	Nothing contained in this article shall limit the power of the Company under section 85 of the 1990 Act. 

  

	 	e)	For the purpose of establishing whether or not the terms of any notice served under this article shall have been complied with the decision of the Directors in this regard shall be final and conclusive and shall bind
all persons interested. 

 Lien 
  

	14.	The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on every share (not being a fully paid share) for all moneys (whether immediately payable or not) called or payable at a fixed time or in accordance with the terms of
issue of such share in respect of such share. The Directors may at any time declare any share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this regulation. The Company’s lien on a share shall extend to all dividends payable thereon.

  
 28 

	15.	The Company may sell, in such manner as the Directors think fit, any shares on which the Company has a lien, but no sale shall be made unless a sum in respect of which the lien exists is immediately payable, nor until
the expiration of 14 days after a notice in writing, stating and demanding payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is immediately payable, has been given to the Holder for the time being of the share or the person
entitled thereto by reason of his death or bankruptcy. 

  

	16.	To give effect to any such sale, the Directors may authorise some person to transfer the shares sold to the purchaser thereof. The purchaser shall be registered as the Holder of the shares comprised in any such
transfer, and he shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money nor shall his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the sale. Where a share, which is to be sold as
provided for in article 26, is held in uncertificated form, the Directors may authorise some person to do all that is necessary under the Companies Act, 1990 (Uncertificated Securities) Regulations 1996 to change such share into certificated form
prior to its sale. 

  

	17.	The proceeds of the sale shall be received by the Company and applied in payment of such part of the amount in respect of which the lien exists as is immediately payable, and the residue, if any, shall (subject to a
like lien for sums not immediately payable as existed upon the shares before the sale) be paid to the person entitled to the shares at the date of the sale. 

  

	18.	Whenever any law for the time being of any country, state or place imposes or purports to impose any immediate or future or possible liability upon the Company to make any payment or empowers any government or taxing
authority or government official to require the Company to make any payment in respect of any shares registered in the Register as held either jointly or solely by any Holder or in respect of any dividends, bonuses or other moneys due or payable or
accruing due or which may become due or payable to such Holder by the Company on or in respect of any shares registered as aforesaid or for or on account or in respect of any Holder and whether in consequence of: 

 

	 	a)	the death of such Holder; 

  

	 	b)	the non-payment of any income tax or other tax by such Holder; 

  

	 	c)	the non-payment of any estate, probate, succession, death, stamp, or other duty by the executor or administrator of such Holder or by or out of his estate; or 

 

	 	d)	any other act or thing; 

  

	    	in every such case (except to the extent that the rights conferred upon Holders of any class of shares render the Company liable to make additional payments in respect of sums withheld on account of the foregoing):

  
 29 

	 	a)	the Company shall be fully indemnified by such Holder or his executor or administrator from all liability; 

  

	 	b)	the Company shall have a lien upon all dividends and other moneys payable in respect of the shares registered in the Register as held either jointly or solely by such Holder for all moneys paid or payable by the Company
in respect of such shares or in respect of any dividends or other moneys as aforesaid thereon or for or on account or in respect of such Holder under or in consequence of any such law together with interest at the rate of fifteen percent per annum
thereon from the date of payment to date of repayment and may deduct or set off against such dividends or other moneys payable as aforesaid any moneys paid or payable by the Company as aforesaid together with interest as aforesaid;

  

	 	c)	the Company may recover as a debt due from such Holder or his executor or administrator wherever constituted any moneys paid by the Company under or in consequence of any such law and interest thereon at the rate and
for the period aforesaid in excess of any dividends or other moneys as aforesaid then due or payable by the Company; 

  

	 	d)	the Company may, if any such money is paid or payable by it under any such law as aforesaid, refuse to register a transfer of any shares by any such Holder or his executor or administrator until such money and interest
as aforesaid is set off or deducted as aforesaid, or in case the same exceeds the amount of any such dividends or other moneys as aforesaid then due or payable by the Company, until such excess is paid to the Company. 

 

	 	e)	Subject to the rights conferred upon the Holders of any class of shares, nothing herein contained shall prejudice or affect any right or remedy which any law may confer or purport to confer on the Company and as between
the Company and every such Holder as aforesaid, his estate representative, executor, administrator and estate wheresoever constituted or situate, any right or remedy which such law shall confer or purport to confer on the Company shall be
enforceable by the Company. 

 Calls on shares 

 

	19.	The Directors may from time to time make calls upon the members in respect of any moneys unpaid on their shares (whether on account of the nominal value of the shares or by way of premium) and not by the conditions of
allotment thereof made payable at fixed times or in accordance with such terms of allotment, and each member shall (subject to receiving at least 14 days’ notice specifying the time or times and place of payment) pay to the Company at the time
or times and place so specified the amount called on his shares. A call may be revoked or postponed as the Directors may determine. 

  
 30 

	20.	A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Directors authorising the call was passed and may be required to be paid by instalments. 

 

	21.	The joint Holders of a share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof. 

  

	22.	If a sum called in respect of a share is not paid before or on the day appointed for payment thereof, the person from whom the sum is due shall pay interest on the sum from the day appointed for payment thereof to the
time of actual payment at such rate as the Directors may determine, but the Directors shall be at liberty to waive payment of such interest wholly or in part. 

  

	23.	Any sum which by the terms of issue of a share becomes payable on allotment or at any fixed date, whether on account of the nominal value of the share or by way of premium, shall for the purpose of these regulations be
deemed to be a call duly made and payable on the date on which, by the terms of issue, the same becomes payable, and in case of non-payment all the relevant provisions of these regulations as to payment of interest and expenses, forfeiture or
otherwise, shall apply as if such sum had become payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified. 

  

	24.	The Directors may, on the issue of shares, differentiate between the Holders as to the amount of calls to be paid and the time of payment. 

 

	25.	The Directors may, if they think fit, receive from any member willing to advance the same all or any part of the moneys uncalled and unpaid upon any shares held by him, and upon all or any of the moneys so advanced may
(until the same would, but for such advance, become payable) pay interest at such rate not exceeding (unless the Company in general meeting otherwise directs) fifteen per cent per annum, as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the member
paying such sum in advance. 

 Transfer of Shares 

 

	26.	

  

	26.1.	 Subject to compliance with the Acts and to any applicable restrictions contained in these articles, applicable law, including U.S. securities laws,
and any agreement binding on such Holder as to which the Company is aware, any Holder may transfer all or any of its shares by an instrument of transfer in the usual common form or in any other form or by any other method permissible

  
 31 

	 	
under applicable law, as may be approved by the Directors. The instrument of transfer of any share may be executed for and on behalf of the transferor by the Secretary, Assistant Secretary or any
duly authorised delegate or attorney of the Secretary or Assistant Secretary (whether an individual, a corporation or other body of persons, whether corporate or not, and whether in respect of specific transfers or pursuant to a general standing
authorisation) and the Secretary or Assistant Secretary or a relevant authorised delegate shall be deemed to have been irrevocably appointed agent for the transferor of such share or shares with full power to execute, complete and deliver in the
name of and on behalf of the transferor of such share or shares all such transfers of shares held by the members in the share capital of the Company. Any document which records the name of the transferor, the name of the transferee, the class and
number of shares agreed to be transferred and the date of the agreement to transfer shares, shall, once executed by the transferor or the Secretary or Assistant Secretary or relevant authorised delegate as agent for the transferor, be deemed to be a
proper instrument of transfer for the purposes of section 81 of the Act. The transferor shall be deemed to remain the Holder of the share until the name of the transferee is entered on the Register in respect thereof, and neither the title of the
transferee nor the title of the transferor shall be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the sale should the Directors so determine. 

 

	26.2.	The Company, at its absolute discretion, may, or may procure that a subsidiary of the Company shall, pay Irish stamp duty arising on a transfer of shares on behalf of the transferee of such shares of the Company. If
stamp duty resulting from the transfer of shares in the Company which would otherwise be payable by the transferee is paid by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company on behalf of the transferee, then in those circumstances, the Company shall,
on its behalf or on behalf of its subsidiary (as the case may be), be entitled to (i) seek reimbursement of the stamp duty from the transferee, (ii) set-off the stamp duty liability against any dividends payable to the transferee of those
shares and (iii) claim a first and permanent lien on the shares on which stamp duty has been paid by the Company or its subsidiary for the amount of stamp duty paid. The Company’s lien shall extend to all dividends paid on those shares.

  

	26.3.	Notwithstanding the provisions of these articles and subject to any regulations made under section 239 of the 1990 Act, title to any shares in the Company may also be evidenced and transferred without a written
instrument in accordance with section 239 of the 1990 Act or any regulations made thereunder. The Directors shall have power to permit any class of shares to be held in uncertificated form and to implement any arrangements they think fit for such
evidencing and transfer which accord with such regulations and in particular shall, where appropriate, be entitled to disapply or modify all or part of the provisions in these articles with respect to the requirement for written instruments of
transfer and share certificates (if any), in order to give effect to such regulations. 

  
 32 

	27.	Subject to such of the restrictions of these articles and to such of the conditions of issue of any share warrants as may be applicable, any share warrant may be transferred by instrument in writing in any usual or
common form or any other form which the Directors may approve. 

  

	28.	The Board may in its absolute discretion and without assigning any reason for its decision, decline to register any transfer of any Share which is not a fully paid Share. The Board may also, in its absolute discretion,
and without assigning any reason, refuse to register a transfer of any Share unless: 

  

	 	28.1.	the instrument of transfer is fully and properly completed and is lodged with the Company accompanied by the certificate for the Shares (if any) to which it relates (which shall upon registration of the transfer be
cancelled) and such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer; 

  

	 	28.2.	the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one class of Shares; 

  

	 	28.3.	a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 of the United States of America is in effect with respect to such transfer or such transfer is exempt from registration and, if requested by the Board, a written
opinion from counsel reasonably acceptable to the Board is obtained to the effect that such transfer is exempt from registration; 

  

	 	28.4.	the instrument of transfer is properly stamped (in circumstances where stamping is required); 

  

	 	28.5.	it is satisfied, acting reasonably, that all applicable consents, authorisations, permissions or approvals of any governmental body or agency in Ireland or any other applicable jurisdiction required to be obtained under
relevant law prior to such transfer have been obtained; and 

  

	 	28.6.	it is satisfied, acting reasonably, that the transfer would not violate the terms of any agreement to which the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) and the transferor are party or subject. 

 

	29.	If the Directors refuse to register a transfer they shall, within three months after the date on which the transfer was lodged with the Company, send to the transferee notice of the refusal. 

 

	30.	 In order that the Directors may determine the members entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights or
the members entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of shares, or for the purpose of any 

  
 33 

	 	
other lawful action, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted. If no record date is fixed, the
record date for determining members for such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Directors adopt the resolution relating thereto. 

  

	31.	Registration of transfers may be suspended at such times and for such period, not exceeding in the whole 30 days in each year, as the Directors may from time to time determine subject to the requirements of section 121
of the Act. 

  

	32.	All instruments of transfer shall upon their being lodged with the Company remain the property of the Company and the Company shall be entitled to retain them. 

Transmission of Shares 
  

	33.	In the case of the death of a member, the survivor or survivors, where the deceased was a joint Holder, and the personal representatives of the deceased where he was a sole Holder, shall be the only persons recognised
by the Company as having any title to his interest in the shares; but nothing herein contained shall release the estate of a deceased joint Holder from any liability in respect of any share which had been jointly held by him with other persons. For
greater certainty, where two or more persons are registered as joint Holders of a share or shares, then in the event of the death of any joint Holder or Holders the remaining joint Holder or Holders shall be absolutely entitled to the said share or
shares and the Company shall recognise no claim in respect of the estate of any joint Holder except in the case of the last survivor of such joint Holders. 

  

	34.	Any person becoming entitled to a share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a member may, upon such evidence being produced as may from time to time properly be required by the Directors and subject as herein
provided, elect either to be registered himself as Holder of the share or to have some person nominated by him registered as the transferee thereof, but the Directors shall, in either case, have the same right to decline or suspend registration as
they would have had in the case of a transfer of the shares by that member before his death or bankruptcy, as the case may be. If the person so becoming entitled elects to be registered himself, he shall deliver or send to the Company a notice in
writing signed by him stating that he so elects. If he elects to have another person registered, he shall testify his election by executing to that person a transfer of the share. All the limitations, restrictions and provisions of these articles
relating to the right to transfer and the registration of transfers of shares shall be applicable to any such notice or transfer as aforesaid as if the death or bankruptcy of the member had not occurred and the notice of transfer were a transfer
signed by that member. 

  
 34 

	35.	A person becoming entitled to a share by reason of the death or bankruptcy of the Holder shall be entitled to the same dividends and other advantages to which he would be entitled if he were the registered Holder of the
share, except that he shall not, before being registered as a member in respect of the share, be entitled in respect of it to exercise any right conferred by membership in relation to the meetings of the Company, so, however, that the Directors may
at any time give notice requiring such person to elect either to be registered himself or to transfer the share, and if the notice is not complied with within 60 days, the Directors may thereupon withhold payment of all dividends, bonuses or other
moneys payable in respect of the share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with. 

 Forfeiture of Shares

  

	36.	If a member fails to pay any call or installment of a call on the day appointed for payment thereof, the Directors may, at any time thereafter during such time as any part of the call or installment remains unpaid,
serve a notice on him requiring payment of so much of the call or installment as is unpaid together with any interest which may have accrued. 

  

	37.	The notice shall name a further day (not earlier than the expiration of 14 days from the date of service of the notice) on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made, and shall state that, in the
event of non-payment at or before the time appointed, the shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited. 

  

	38.	If the requirements of any such notice as aforesaid are not complied with any shares in respect of which the notice has been given may at any time thereafter, before the payment required by the notice has been made, be
forfeited by a resolution of the Directors to that effect. Such forfeiture shall include all dividends declared in respect of the forfeited shares and not actually paid before the forfeiture. 

 

	39.	A forfeited share shall be deemed to be the property of the Company and may be sold, re-offered or otherwise disposed of either to the person who was, before the forfeiture, the Holder thereof or entitled thereto or to
any other person on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit, and at any time before a sale or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit. 

 

	40.	When any share has been forfeited, notice of the forfeiture shall be served upon the person who was before forfeiture the Holder of the share, but no forfeiture shall be in any manner invalidated by any omission or
neglect to give such notice. 

  

	41.	A person whose shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a member in respect of the forfeited shares, but shall, notwithstanding, remain liable to pay to the Company all moneys which, at the date of forfeiture, were
payable by him to the Company in respect of the shares, but his liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all such moneys in respect of the shares. 

  
 35 

	42.	A statutory declaration that the declarant is a Director or the Secretary, and that a share in the Company has been duly forfeited on the date stated in the declaration, shall be conclusive evidence of the facts therein
stated as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the share. The Company may receive the consideration, if any, given for the share on any sale or disposition thereof and may execute a transfer of the share in favour of the person to whom the
share is sold or disposed of and he shall thereupon be registered as the Holder of the share, and shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall his title to the share be affected by any irregularity or
invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the share. 

  

	43.	The provisions of these articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the nominal value of
the share or by way of premium, as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified. 

  

	44.	The Directors may accept the surrender of any share which the Directors have resolved to have been forfeited upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed and, subject to any such terms and conditions, a surrendered
share shall be treated as if it has been forfeited. 

 Financial assistance 

 

	45.	The Company may give any form of financial assistance which is permitted by the Acts for the purpose of or in connection with a purchase or subscription made or to be made by any person of or for any shares in the
Company or in the Company’s holding company. 

 Alteration of Capital 

 

	46.	The Company may from time to time by Ordinary Resolution increase its authorised share capital by such sum, to be divided into shares of such amount, as the resolution shall prescribe. 

 

	47.	The Company may by Ordinary Resolution: 

  

	47.1.	reduce its authorised share capital; 

  

	47.2.	consolidate and divide all or any of its share capital into shares of larger amount than its existing shares; 

  
 36 

	47.3.	subdivide its existing shares, or any of them, into shares of smaller amount than is fixed by the memorandum of association subject, nevertheless, to section 68(1)(d) of the Act; 

 

	47.4.	make provision for the issue and allotment of shares which do not carry any voting rights; 

  

	47.5.	cancel any shares which, at the date of the passing of the resolution, have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person and reduce the amount of its authorised share capital by the amount of the shares so
cancelled; and 

  

	47.6.	subject to applicable law, change the currency denomination of its share capital. 

 Where any difficulty arises
in regard to any division, consolidation or sub-division under this article 47, the Directors may settle the same as they think expedient and in particular, may arrange for the sale of the shares representing fractions and the distribution of the
net proceeds of sale in due proportion amongst the Holders who would have been entitled to the fractions, and for this purpose the Directors may authorise some person to transfer the shares representing fractions to the purchaser thereof, who shall
not be bound to see to the application of purchase money nor shall his title to the shares be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings related to the sale. 

 

	48.	The Company may by Special Resolution reduce its issued share capital, any capital redemption reserve fund or any share premium account in any manner and with and subject to any incident authorised, and consent
required, by law. 

 General Meetings 
  

	49.	The Company shall in each year hold a general meeting as its annual general meeting in addition to any other meeting in that year, and shall specify the meeting as such in the notices calling it. Not more than 15 months
shall elapse between the date of one annual general meeting of the Company and that of the next. Subject to section 140 of the Act, all general meetings of the Company may be held outside of Ireland, and, in any event, at such place as the Board may
designate. 

  

	50.	All general meetings other than annual general meetings shall be called extraordinary general meetings. 

  

	51.	The Chairman of the Board, or a majority of the Directors may, whenever they think fit, convene an extraordinary general meeting, and extraordinary general meetings shall also be convened on such requisition, or in
default may be convened by such requisitionists, as provided by section 132 of the Act. 

  
 37 

	52.	All provisions of these articles relating to general meetings of the Company shall, mutatis mutandis, apply to every separate general meeting of the Holders of any class of shares in the capital of the Company, except
that: 

  

	52.1.	the necessary quorum shall be one or more persons holding or representing by proxy (whether or not such Holder actually exercises his voting rights in whole, in part or at all at the relevant general meeting) more than
50% of the total issued-voting rights of the relevant class of shares; and 

  

	52.2.	on a poll, each Holder of shares of the class shall have one vote in respect of every share of the class held by him. 

  

	53.	A Director shall be entitled, notwithstanding that he is not a member, to attend and speak at any general meeting and at any separate meeting of the Holders of any class of shares in the Company. 

Notice of General Meetings 
  

	54.	

  

	54.1.	Subject to the provisions of the Acts allowing a general meeting to be called by shorter notice, an annual general meeting, and an extraordinary general meeting called for the passing of a Special Resolution, shall be
called by not less than 21 Clear Days’ notice and all other extraordinary general meetings shall be called by not less than 14 Clear Days’ notice but no more than 60 Clear Days’ notice. 

 

	54.2.	Notice of every general meeting shall be given in any manner permitted by these articles to all Shareholders (other than those who, under the provisions of these articles or the terms of issue of the shares which they
hold, are not entitled to receive such notice from the Company) and to each Director and to the Auditors. 

  

	54.3.	 Any notice convening a general meeting shall specify the time and place of the meeting and, in the case of special business, the general nature of
that business and, in reasonable prominence, that a member entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint a proxy to attend, speak and vote in his place and that a proxy need not be a member of the Company. It shall also give particulars of any
Directors who are to retire at the meeting and of any persons who are recommended by the Directors for election or re-election as Directors at the meeting or in respect of whom notice has been duly given to the Company of the intention to propose
them for election or re-election as Directors at the meeting. Provided that the latter requirement shall only apply where the 

  
 38 

	 	
intention to propose the person has been received by the Company in accordance with the provisions of these articles. Subject to any restrictions imposed on any shares, the notice of the meeting
shall be given to all the Holders of any class of shares of the Company as of the record date set by the Directors other than shares which, under the terms of these articles or the terms of allotment of such shares, are not entitled to receive such
notice from the Company, and to the Directors and the Company’s auditors. 

  

	54.4.	The Board may fix a future time not exceeding 60 days nor less than 10 days preceding any meeting of Shareholders as a record date for the determination of the Shareholders entitled to attend and vote at any such
meeting or any adjournments thereof, and, in such case, only Shareholders of record at the time so fixed shall be entitled to notice of and to vote at such meetings or any adjournment thereof. Subject to section 121 of the Act, the Board may close
the Register against transfers of Shares during the whole or part of the period between the record date so fixed and the date of such meeting or the date to which such meeting is adjourned. If no record date is fixed, the record date for determining
the Shareholders who are entitled to vote at a meeting of Shareholders shall be close of business on the date preceding the day on which notice is given. 

  

	54.5.	The accidental omission to give notice of a meeting to, or, in cases where instruments of proxy are sent out without the notice, the accidental omission to send such instrument of proxy to, or the non-receipt of notice
of a meeting or instrument of proxy by, any person entitled to receive notice shall not invalidate the proceedings at the meeting. 

  

	54.6.	A Holder of shares present, either in person or by proxy, at any meeting of the Company or of the Holders of any class of shares in the Company shall be deemed to have received notice of the meeting and, where required,
of the purposes for which it was called. 

  

	54.7.	Upon request in writing of Shareholders holding such number of shares as is prescribed by section 132 of the Act, delivered to the Office, it shall be the duty of the Directors to convene a general meeting to be held
within two months from the date of the deposit of the requisition in accordance with the section 132 of the Act. If such notice is not given within two months after the delivery of such request, the requisitionists, or any one of them representing
more than one half of the total voting rights of all of them, may themselves convene a meeting, but any meeting so convened shall not be held after the expiration of three months from the said date and any notice of such meeting shall be in
compliance with these articles. 

  
 39 

	55.	

  

	55.1.	The Directors may postpone a general meeting of the members (other than a meeting requisitioned by a member in accordance with section 132 of the Act or where the postponement of which would be contrary to the Acts or a
court order pursuant to the Acts) after it has been convened, and notice of such postponement shall be served in accordance with article 54 upon all members entitled to notice of the meeting so postponed setting out, where the meeting is postponed
to a specific date, notice of the new meeting in accordance with article 54. 

  

	55.2.	The Directors may cancel a general meeting of the members (other than a meeting requisitioned by a member in accordance with section 132 of the Act or where the cancellation of which would be contrary to the Acts or a
court order pursuant to the Acts) after it has been convened, and notice of such cancellation shall be served in accordance with article 54 upon all members entitled to notice of the meeting so cancelled. 

Proceedings at General Meetings 
  

	56.	No business shall be transacted at any general meeting unless a quorum is present at the time when the meeting proceeds to business. Except as otherwise provided in these articles, a quorum shall be one or more persons
holding or representing by proxy (whether or not such Holder actually exercises his voting rights in whole, in part or at all at the relevant general meeting) more than 50% of the total issued voting rights of the Company’s shares. Abstentions
and broker non-votes will be counted as present for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum. 

  

	57.	If within five minutes from the time appointed for a general meeting (or such longer interval as the chairman of the meeting may think fit to allow) a quorum is not present, the meeting, if convened upon the requisition
of members, shall be dissolved. In any other case it shall stand adjourned to such other day and such other time and place as the chairman of the meeting shall determine. The Company shall give not less than five days’ notice of any meeting
adjourned through want of a quorum. 

  

	58.	All business shall be deemed special that is transacted at an extraordinary general meeting, and also all that is transacted at an annual general meeting, with the exception of declaring a dividend, the consideration of
the accounts, balance sheets and the reports of the Directors and auditors, the election of Directors, the re-appointment of the retiring auditors and the fixing of the remuneration of the auditors. 

  
 40 

	59.	

  
  

	59.1	Unless determined by resolution of the Board in accordance with this article 59, no shareholder may participate in a meeting of shareholders by a conference telephone or by other similar communications equipment, and
any shareholder attempting to so participate in any meeting of shareholders shall be deemed not to be present in person at such a meeting. 

  

	59.2	If determined by resolution of the Board, a meeting of the members or any class of Shareholder may be held by means of such telephone, electronic or other communication facilities (including, without limitation of the
foregoing, by telephone or video conferencing) as permit all persons participating in the meeting to communicate with each other simultaneously and instantaneously, and participation in such a meeting shall constitute presence at such meeting.

  

	59.3	In accordance with article 59.2, the Board may make such arrangements as it considers appropriate to enable the members to participate in any general meeting by means of two-way, audio-visual electronic facilities, so
as to permit all persons participating in the meeting to communicate with each other simultaneously and instantaneously, and participation in such a meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting. 

 

	59.4	The Board may, and at any general meeting or meeting of a class of members, the chairman of such meeting may make any arrangement and impose any requirement as may be reasonable for the purpose of verifying the identity
of members participating by way of electronic facilities, as described in article 59.3. 

  

	59.5	The Shareholders present by way of electronic facilities and entitled to vote shall be counted in the quorum for, and shall be entitled to vote at, the meeting in question if the chairman is satisfied that any
requirement imposed pursuant to article 59.4 has been met. 

  

	60.	No business may be transacted at a meeting of members, other than business that is either proposed by or at the direction of the Directors; proposed at the direction of the High Court of Ireland; proposed at the
direction of the Office of the Director of Corporate Enforcement of Ireland; proposed on the requisition in writing of such number of members as is prescribed by, and is made in accordance with, the relevant provisions of the Acts and, in respect of
an annual general meeting only, these articles; or the chairman of the meeting determines in his absolute and sole discretion that the business may properly be regarded as within the scope of the meeting. For business or nominations to be properly
brought by a member at any general meeting, the member proposing such business must be a Holder of record at the time of giving of the notice provided for in articles 54 and 55 and must be entitled to vote at such meeting and any proposed business
must be a proper matter for member action. 

  
 41 

	61.	

  
  

	61.1.	Subject to the Acts, a resolution may only be put to a vote at a general meeting of the Company if: 

  

	 	a)	it is specified in the notice of the meeting; or

all shareholders. On request of the Chairman of the meeting or a shareholder entitled to vote thereat, the inspectors shall make and execute a written report to the Chairman of the meeting of any of the facts found by them and matters determined by
them. The report is prima facie evidence of the facts stated and of the vote as certified by the inspectors. 

  

	69.	

  

	69.1	 Subject to Section 141 of the Companies Act 1963 and the requirements of the Companies Acts 1963 to 2012, anything which may be done by

 43 

	 	
by all of the shareholders entitled generally to vote at general meetings who at the date of the resolution in writing would be entitled to attend a meeting and vote on the resolution and if
described as a special resolution shall be deemed to be a special resolution or a special resolution of the class, as applicable. Such resolution in writing may be signed in as many counterparts as may be necessary.

to be elected to the Board of Directors of the Company is increased and there is no public announcement by the Company naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased Board of Directors at least 70 days prior to the
first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting, a shareholder’s notice required by this article 73 shall also be considered timely, but only with respect to nominees for any new positions created by such increase, if it shall be

nomination or proposed business, such nomination shall be disregarded and such proposed business shall not be transacted, notwithstanding that proxies in respect of such vote may have been received by the Company. For purposes of articles 72 and 73,
to be considered a qualified representative of the member, a person must be a duly authorised officer, manager or partner of such member or must be authorised by a writing executed by such member or an electronic transmission delivered by such
member to act for such member as proxy at the meeting of member and such person must produce such writing or electronic transmission, or a reliable reproduction of the writing or electronic transmission, at the general meeting of members.

  

	75.	In addition, if the member intends to solicit proxies from the members of the Company, such member shall notify the Company of this intent in accordance with Rule 14a-4 and / or Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act. Any
references in these articles to the Exchange Act or the rules promulgated thereunder are not intended to and shall not limit any requirements applicable to member nominations or proposals as to any other business to be considered pursuant to these
articles and compliance with these articles shall be the exclusive means for a member to make nominations or submit proposals for any other business to be considered at an annual general meeting (other than matters brought properly under and in
compliance with Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, or any successor rule). Nothing in these articles shall be deemed to affect any rights of members to request inclusion of proposals in the Company’s proxy statement pursuant to applicable rules
and regulations under the Exchange Act. 

 Voting, proxies and corporate representatives 

 

	76.	Except where a greater majority is required by the Acts or these articles, any question, business or resolution proposed at any general meeting shall be decided by a simple majority of the votes cast. 

  
 48 

	77.	All resolutions put to the Shareholders will be decided on a poll. 

  

	78.	Votes may be cast on the poll either personally or by proxy. 

  

	79.	A Shareholder entitled to more than one vote on a poll need not use all his votes or cast all the votes he uses in the same way. 

  

	80.	The result of a poll shall, subject to any provisions of these articles or applicable law relating to approval thresholds, be deemed to be the resolution of the meeting. 

 

	81.	When there are joint Holders, the vote of the senior who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint Holders; and for this purpose, seniority shall
be determined by the order in which the names stand in the Register. 

  

	82.	A member of unsound mind, or in respect of whom an order has been made by any court having jurisdiction (whether in Ireland or elsewhere) in matters concerning mental disorder, may vote, by his committee, receiver,
guardian or other person appointed by that court and any such committee, receiver, guardian or other person may vote by proxy. Evidence to the satisfaction of the Directors of the authority of the person claiming to exercise the right to vote shall
be received at the Office or at such other address as is specified in accordance with these articles for the receipt of appointments of proxy, not less than 48 hours before the time appointed for holding the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the
right to vote is to be exercised and in default the right to vote shall not be exercisable. 

  

	83.	No member shall be entitled to vote at any general meeting unless any calls or other sums immediately payable by him in respect of shares in the Company have been paid. 

 

	84.	No objection shall be raised to the qualification of any voter except at the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered, and every vote not disallowed at such meeting shall be valid
for all purposes. Any such objection made in due time shall be referred to the Chairman of the meeting, whose decision shall be final and conclusive. 

  

	85.	If: 

  

	85.1.	any objection shall be raised as to the qualification of any voter; or 

  

	85.2.	any votes have been counted which ought not to have been counted or which might have been rejected; or 

  
 49 

	85.3.	any votes are not counted which out to have been counted, the objection or error shall not vitiate the decision of the meeting or adjourned meeting on any resolution unless the same is raised or pointed out at the
meeting or, as the case may be, the adjourned meeting at which the vote objected to is given or tendered or at which the error occurs. Any objection or error shall be referred to the chairman of the meeting and shall only vitiate the decision of the
meeting on any resolution if the chairman decides that the same may have affected the decision of the meeting. The decision of the chairman on such matters shall be final and conclusive. 

 

	86.	Votes may be given either personally or by proxy. 

  

	87.	Every member entitled to attend and vote at a general meeting may appoint a proxy to attend, speak and vote on his behalf and may appoint more 

 

	88.	than one proxy to attend, speak and vote at the same meeting. The appointment of a proxy shall be in any form which the Directors may approve and, if required by the Company, shall be signed by or on behalf of the
appointor. In relation to written proxies, a body corporate may sign a form of proxy under its common seal or under the hand of a duly authorised officer thereof or in such other manner as the Directors may approve. A proxy need not be a member of
the Company. The appointment of a proxy in electronic or other form shall only be effective in such manner as the Directors may approve. 

  

	87.1	Without limiting the foregoing the Directors may from time to time permit appointments of a proxy to be made by means of an electronic or internet communication or facility and may in a similar manner permit supplements
to, or amendments or revocations of, any such electronic or internet communication or facility to be made. The Directors may in addition prescribe the method of determining the time at which any such electronic or internet communication or facility
is to be treated as received by the Company. The Directors may treat any such electronic or Internet communication or facility which purports to be or is expressed to be sent on behalf of a Holder of a share as sufficient evidence of the authority
of the person sending that instruction to send it on behalf of that Holder. 

  

	88	Proxies shall be delivered or directed to the attention of the Secretary of the Company before the meeting at which such proxies are intended to be voted or at such other place and time as may be specified for that
purpose in or by way of note to the notice convening the meeting. 

  

	89	Any body corporate which is a member of the Company may authorise such person as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or of any class of members of the Company and the person so
authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the body corporate which he represents as that body corporate could exercise if it were an individual member of the Company. The Company may require evidence from the body
corporate of the due authorisation of such person to act as the representative of the relevant body corporate. 

  
 50 

	90	An appointment of proxy relating to more than one meeting (including any adjournment thereof) having once been received by the Company for the purposes of any meeting shall not require to be delivered, deposited or
received again by the Company for the purposes of any subsequent meeting to which it relates. 

  

	91	Receipt by the Company of an appointment of proxy in respect of a meeting shall not preclude a member from attending and voting at the meeting or at any adjournment thereof. An appointment proxy shall be valid, unless
the contrary is stated therein, as well for any adjournment of the meeting as for the meeting to which it relates. A standing proxy shall be valid for all meetings and adjournments thereof or resolutions in writing, as the case may be, until notice
of revocation is received by the Company. Where a standing proxy exists, its operation shall be deemed to have been suspended at any meeting or adjournment thereof at which the Holder is present or in respect to which the Holder has specially
appointed a proxy. The Directors may from time to time require such evidence as it shall deem necessary as to the due execution and continuing validity of any standing proxy and the operation of any such standing proxy shall be deemed to be
suspended until such time as the Directors determine that they have received the requested evidence or other evidence satisfactory to it. 

  

	92	A vote given in accordance with the terms of an appointment of proxy or a resolution authorising a representative to act on behalf of a body corporate shall be valid notwithstanding the death or insanity of the
principal, or the revocation of the appointment of proxy or of the authority under which the proxy was appointed or of the resolution authorising the representative to act or transfer of the share in respect of which the proxy was appointed or the
authorisation of the representative to act was given, provided that no intimation in writing (whether in electronic form or otherwise) of such death, insanity, revocation or transfer shall have been received by the Company at the Office, at least
one hour before the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the appointment of proxy is used or at which the representative acts PROVIDED HOWEVER, that where such intimation is given in electronic form it shall have been received
by the Company at least 24 hours (or such lesser time as the Directors may specify) before the commencement of the meeting. 

  

	93	The Directors may send, at the expense of the Company, by post, electronic mail or otherwise, to the members forms for the appointment of a proxy (with or without stamped envelopes for their return) for use at any
general meeting or at any class meeting, either in blank or nominating any one or more of the Directors or any other persons in the alternative. 

  
 51 

	94	The instrument appointing a proxy shall be deemed to confer authority to demand or join in demanding a poll. 

Directors 
  

	95	The number of Directors shall (subject to: (a) automatic increases to accommodate the exercise of the rights of Holders of any class or series of shares then in issue having special rights to nominate or appoint
Directors in accordance with the terms of issue of such class or series of shares; and / or (b) any resolution passed in accordance with article 121) not be less than two nor more than eleven. The authorised number of directors (within such
fixed maximum and fixed minimum numbers) shall be determined by the Board. The continuing Directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body, provided that if the number of the Directors is reduced below the prescribed minimum the remaining

	97	The Board may from time to time determine that, subject to the requirements of the Acts, all or part of any fees or other remuneration payable to any Director of the Company shall be provided in the form of shares or
other securities of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company, or options or rights to acquire such shares or other securities, on such terms as the Board may decide. 

 

	98	If any Director shall be called upon to perform extra services which in the opinion of the Directors are outside the scope of the ordinary duties of a Director, the Company may remunerate such Director either by a fixed
sum or by a percentage of profits or otherwise as may be determined by a resolution passed at a meeting of the Directors and such remuneration may be either in addition to or in substitution for any other remuneration to which he may be entitled as
a Director. 

  

	99	No shareholding qualification for Directors shall be required. A Director who is not a member of the Company shall nevertheless be entitled to attend and speak at general meetings.

articles to be exercised by the Company in general meeting. No alteration of these articles shall invalidate any prior act of the Board which would have been valid if that alteration had not been made. The powers given by this article shall not be
limited by any special power given to the Board by these articles and, except as otherwise expressly provided in these articles, a meeting of the Board at which a quorum is present shall be competent to exercise all of the powers, authorities and

	103.1	The Board may delegate any of its powers (with power to sub-delegate) to any committee consisting of one or more Directors. The Board may also delegate to any Director such of its powers as it considers desirable to be
exercised by such Director. Any such delegation may be made subject to any conditions the Board may impose, and either collaterally with or to the exclusion of its own powers and may be revoked or altered. Subject to any such conditions, the

ascertaining whether a quorum is present, but the resolution with respect to the contract. transaction or arrangement will fail unless it is approved by a majority of the disinterested Directors voting on the resolution.

	107	 A Director may hold and be remunerated in respect of any other office or place of profit under the Company or any other company in which the Company
may be interested (other than the office of auditor of the Company or any subsidiary thereof) in conjunction with his office of Director for 

  
 54 

	 	
such period and on such terms as to remuneration and otherwise as the Directors may determine, and no Director or intending Director shall be disqualified by his office from contracting or being
interested, directly or indirectly, in any contract or arrangement with the Company or any such other company either with regard to his tenure of any such other office or place of profit or as vendor, purchaser or otherwise nor shall any Director so
contracting or being so interested be liable to account to the Company for any profits and advantages accruing to him from any such contract or arrangement by reason of such Director holding that office or of the fiduciary relationship thereby
established. 

  

	108	So long as, where it is necessary, a Director declares the nature of his interest at the first opportunity at a meeting of the Board or by writing to the Directors, a Director shall not by reason of his office be
accountable to the Company for any benefit which he derives from any office or employment to which these articles allow him to be appointed or from any transaction or arrangement in which these articles allow him to be interested, and no such
transaction or arrangement shall be liable to be avoided on the ground of any interest or benefit. 

  

	109	To the maximum extent permitted from time to time under the laws of Ireland, the Company renounces any interest or expectancy of the Company in, or in being offered an opportunity to participate in, business
opportunities that are from time to time presented to its Directors, officers or members or the affiliates of the foregoing, other than those Directors, officers or members or affiliates who are employees of the Company. No amendment or repeal of
this article shall apply to or have any effect on the liability or alleged liability of any such Director, officer or member or affiliate of the Company for or with respect to any opportunities of which such Director, officer or member or affiliate
becomes aware prior to such amendment or repeal. 

  

	110	The Directors may exercise the voting powers conferred by shares of any other company held or owned by the Company in such manner in all respects as they think fit and in particular they may exercise their voting powers
in favour of any resolution appointing the Directors or any of them as Directors or officers of such other company or providing for the payment of remuneration or pensions to the Directors or officers of such other company. 

 

	111	Any Director may act by himself or his firm in a professional capacity for the Company, and he or his firm shall be entitled to remuneration for professional services as if he were not a Director, but nothing herein
contained shall authorise a Director or his firm to act as auditor for the Company. 

  

	112	All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other negotiable instruments and all receipts for money paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed, as the case may
be, by such person or persons and in such manner as the Directors shall from time to time by resolution determine. No cheque, draft, bill of exchange, or note shall be signed in blank. 

  
 55 

	113	The Directors shall cause minutes to be made in books provided for the purpose: 

  

	 	113.1	of all appointments of officers made by the Directors; 

  

	 	113.2	of the names of the Directors present at each meeting of the Directors and of any committee of the Directors; and 

  

	 	113.3	of all resolutions and proceedings at all meetings of the Company and of the Directors and of committees of Directors.

life assurance scheme or arrangement for the benefit of, and pay, provide for or procure the grant of donations, gratuities, pensions, allowances, benefits or emoluments to any persons (including Directors or other officers) who are or shall have
been at any time in the employment or service of the Company or of any company which is or was a subsidiary of the Company or of the Predecessor in business of the Company or any such subsidiary or holding Company and the wives, widows, families,
relatives or dependants of any such persons. The Directors may also procure the establishment and subsidy of or subscription to and support of any institutions, associations, clubs, funds or trusts calculated to be for the benefit of any such
persons as aforesaid or otherwise to advance the interests and well being of the Company or of any such other Company as aforesaid, or its members, and payments for or towards the insurance of any such persons as aforesaid and subscriptions or
guarantees of money for charitable or benevolent objects or for any exhibition or for any public, general or useful object. Any Director shall be entitled to retain any benefit received by him under this article, subject only, where the Acts
require, to disclosure to the members and the approval of the Company in general meeting. 

 Disqualification of Directors

  

	115	The office of a Director shall be vacated ipso facto if the Director: 

  

	 	115.1	is restricted or disqualified to act as a Director under the provisions of Part VII of the 1990 Act; or 

  

	 	115.2	resigns his office by notice in writing to the Company or in writing offers to resign and the Directors resolve to accept such offer; or 

  
 56 

	 	115.3	is removed from office under article 122. 

 Appointment, rotation and removal of Directors

  

	116	At each annual general meeting of the Company all the Directors shall retire from office and be re-eligible for re-election. In addition, should the Directors schedule an extraordinary general meeting, in its
discretion, the Board may determine that all Directors retire from office and be re-eligible for re-election at any such extraordinary general meeting. A retiring Director shall be eligible to be nominated for re-election at an annual general
meeting and any relevant extraordinary general meeting and will in any case retain office until the close of that meeting. 

  

	117	Upon the resignation or termination of office of any Director, if a new Director shall be appointed to the Board he will be designated to fill the vacancy arising. 

118 
  

	 	118.1	No person shall be appointed a Director, unless nominated in accordance with the provisions of this article 118. Nominations of persons for appointment as Directors may be made: 

 

	 	a)	by the affirmative vote of two-thirds of the Board; or 

  

	 	b)	with respect to election at an annual general meeting, by any Shareholder who holds Ordinary Shares or other shares carrying the general right to vote at general meetings of the Company, who is a Shareholder at the time
of the giving of the notice provided for in article 70 and at the time of the relevant annual general meeting, and who timely complies with the notice procedures set forth in this articles 71 – 73; or 

 

	 	c)	with respect to election at an extraordinary general meeting requisitioned in accordance with section 132 of the Act, by a Shareholder or Shareholders who hold Ordinary Shares or other shares carrying the general right
to vote at general meetings of the Company and who make such nomination in the written requisition of the extraordinary general meeting and in compliance with the other provisions of these articles and the Acts relating to nominations of Directors
and the proper bringing of special business before an extraordinary general meeting; or 

  

	 	d)	by Holders of any class or series of shares in the Company then in issue having special rights to nominate or appoint Directors in accordance with the terms of issue of such class or series, but only to the extent
provided in such terms of issue (sub-clauses (b), (c) and (d) being the exclusive means for a Shareholder to make nominations of persons for election to the Board). 

  
 57 

	 	118.2	For nominations of persons for election as Directors at an extraordinary general meeting to be in proper written form, a Shareholder’s notice must comply with the requirements outlined in articles 72 and 73.

  

	 	118.3	The determination of whether a nomination of a candidate for election as a Director of the Company has been timely and properly brought before such meeting in accordance with this article 118 will be made by the
presiding officer of such meeting. If the presiding officer determines that any nomination has not been timely and properly brought before such meeting, he or she will so declare to the meeting and such defective nomination will be disregarded.

 119 
  

	 	119.1	Subject to articles 95 and 118, and subject to the rights of any holders of any class or series of Shares then in issue having special rights to nominate or appoint Directors in accordance with the terms of issue of
such class or series, Directors shall be appointed as follows: 

  

	 	(a)	by Shareholders by Ordinary Resolution at the annual general meeting in each year or at any extraordinary general meeting called for the purpose in accordance with the other provisions of these articles; or

  

	 	(b)	by the Board in accordance with articles 123 and 134. 

  

	 	119.2	If at any meeting of Shareholders (or on a subsequent poll with respect to business on the agenda for such meeting), resolutions are passed in respect of the election or re-election (as the case may be) of Directors
which would result in the maximum number of Directors fixed in accordance with these articles being exceeded, then those Director(s), in such number as exceeds such maximum fixed number, receiving at that meeting (or on a subsequent poll with
respect to business on the agenda for such meeting) the lowest number of votes in favour of election or re-election (as the case may be) shall, notwithstanding the passing of any resolution in their favour, not be elected or re-elected (as the case
may be) to the Board; provided, that this article shall not limit the rights of holders of any class or series of shares then in issue having special rights to nominate or appoint Directors in accordance with the terms of issue of such class or
series; provided, further that nothing in this article 119 will require or result in the removal of a Director whose election or re-election to the Board was not voted on at such meeting. 

  
 58 

	120	If a Director stands for re-election, he shall be deemed to have been re-elected, unless at such meeting the Ordinary Resolution for the re-election of such Director has been defeated. 

 

	121	The Company may from time to time by Ordinary Resolution increase or reduce the maximum number of Directors. 

  

	122	The Company may, by Ordinary Resolution, of which extended notice has been given in accordance with section 142 of the Act, remove any Director before the expiration of his period of office notwithstanding anything in
these regulations or in any agreement between the Company and such Director. Such removal shall be without prejudice to any claim such Director may have for damages for breach of any contract of service between him and the Company.

  

	123	The Directors may appoint a person who is willing to act to be a Director, either to fill a vacancy or as an additional Director, provided that the appointment does not cause the number of Directors to exceed any number
fixed by or in accordance with these articles as the maximum number of Directors. 

  

	124	The Company may by Ordinary Resolution elect another person in place of a Director removed from office under article 122; and without prejudice to the powers of the Directors under article 123 the Company in general
meeting may elect any person to be a Director either to fill a vacancy or an additional Director, subject to the maximum number of Directors set out in article 95. 

Officers 
  

	125	The Board may elect a chairman of the Board and determine the period for which he is to hold office and may appoint any person (whether or not a Director) to fill the position of president (who may be the same person as
the chairman of the Board). The chairman of the Board shall vacate that office if he vacates his office as a Director (otherwise than by the expiration of his term of office at a general meeting of the Company at which he is re-appointed).

  

	126	The Board may from time to time appoint one or more of its body to hold any office or position with the Company for such period and on such terms as the Board may determine and may revoke or terminate any such
appointment. Any such revocation or termination shall be without prejudice to any claim for damages that such Director may have against the Company or the Company may have against such Director for any breach of any contract of service between him
and the Company that may be involved in such revocation or termination or otherwise. Any person so appointed shall receive such remuneration, if any (whether by way of salary, commission, participation in profits or otherwise), as the Board may
determine. 

  
 59 

	127	In addition, the Board may appoint any person, whether or not he is a Director, to hold such executive or official position (except that of Auditor) as the Board may from time to time determine. The same person may hold
more than one office or executive or official position. 

  

	128	Any person elected or appointed pursuant to articles 126 and 127 shall hold his office or other position for such period and on such terms as the Board may determine and the Board may revoke or vary any such election or
appointment at any time by resolution of the Board. Any such revocation or variation shall be without prejudice to any claim for damages that such person may have against the Company or the Company may have against such person for any breach of any
contract of service between him and the Company which may be involved in such revocation or variation. If any such office or other position becomes vacant for any reason, the vacancy may be filled by the Board. 

 

	129	Except as provided in the Acts or these articles, the powers and duties of any person elected or appointed to any office or executive or official position pursuant to articles 126 and 127 shall be such as are determined
from time to time by the Board. 

  

	130	The use or inclusion of the word “officer” (or similar words) in the title of any executive or other position shall not be deemed to imply that the person holding such executive or other position is an
“officer” of the Company within the meaning of the Acts. 

  

	131	The Secretary (including one or more deputy or assistant secretaries) shall be appointed by the Directors at such remuneration (if any) and upon such terms as it may think fit and any Secretary so appointed may be
removed by the Directors. 

  

	 	131.1	It shall be the duty of the Secretary to make and keep records of the votes, doings and proceedings of all meetings of the members and Board of the Company, and of its committees, and to authenticate records of the
Company. 

  

	 	131.2	A provision of the Acts or these articles requiring or authorising a thing to be done by or to a Director and the Secretary shall not be satisfied by its being done by or to the same person acting both as Director and
as, or in place of, the Secretary. 

 Proceedings of Directors 

132 
  

	 	132.1	The Directors may meet together for the dispatch of business, adjourn and otherwise regulate their meetings as they may think fit. The quorum necessary for the transaction of the business of the Directors shall be a
majority of the Directors in office at the time when the meeting is convened. Questions arising at any meeting shall be decided by a majority vote of Directors present. Each director present and voting shall have one vote. 

  
 60 

	 	132.2	Any Director may participate in a meeting of the Directors by means of telephonic or other similar communication whereby all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other speak, and participation in a meeting
in this manner shall be deemed to constitute presence in person at such meeting and any director may be situated in any part of the world for any such meeting. 

  

	 	132.3	A meeting of the Directors or any committee appointed by the Directors may be held by means of such telephone, electronic or other communication facilities (including, without limiting the foregoing, by telephone or by
video conferencing) as permit all persons participating in the meeting to communicate with each other simultaneously and instantaneously and participation in such a meeting shall constitute presence in person at such meeting. Such a meeting shall be
deemed to take place where the largest group of those Directors participating in the meeting is physically assembled, or, if there is no such group, where the chairman of the meeting then is. 

 

	133	The Chairman, as the case may be, or any two Directors, may, and the Secretary on the requisition of the Chairman, as the case may be, or any two Directors shall, at any time summon a meeting of the Directors.

  

	134	The continuing Directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their number but, if and so long as their number is reduced below the number fixed by or pursuant to these articles as the necessary quorum of Directors,
the continuing Directors or Director may act for the purpose of increasing the number of Directors to that number or of summoning a general meeting of the Company but for no other purpose. 

 

	135	The Board may from time to time designate committees of the Board, with such powers and duties as the Board may decide to confer on such committees, and shall, for those committees and any others provided for herein,
elect a director or directors to serve as the member or members, designating, if it desires, other directors as alternate members who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee. Adequate provision shall be made for
notice to members of all meetings of committees; a majority of the members shall constitute a quorum unless the committee shall consist of one or two members, in which event one member shall constitute a quorum; and all matters shall be determined
by a majority vote of the members present. Action may be taken by any committee without a meeting if all members thereof consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of the proceedings of such committees.

  
 61 

	136	A committee may elect a chairman of its meeting. If no such chairman is elected, or if at any meeting the chairman is not present within five minutes after the time appointed for holding the same, the members present
may choose one of their number to be chairman of the meeting. In the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, the remaining members thereof present at a meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not they constitute a
quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board to act at the meeting in place of such absent or disqualified member. 

  

	137	All acts done by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of Directors or by any person acting as a Director shall, notwithstanding that it be afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of
any such Director or person acting as aforesaid, or that they or any of them were disqualified, he as valid as if every such person had been duly appointed and was qualified to be a Director. 

 

	138	

  

	138.1	Subject to article 138.2 but notwithstanding anything in these articles or in the Acts which might be construed as providing to the contrary, notice of every meeting of the Directors shall be given to all Directors
either by mail not less than 72 hours before the date of the meeting, or by delivering personally or by overnight mail or courier service, or by telegraphing the same at least one day, or by telephone, email, or any other electronic means on not
less than 12 hours’ notice, or on such shorter notice as person or persons calling such meeting may deem necessary or appropriate and which is reasonable in the circumstances. Any director may waive any notice required to be given under these
articles, and the attendance of a director at a meeting shall be deemed to be a waiver by such Director. Notice of the time, place, and purpose of any meeting of the Board of Directors, a committee thereof may be waived by telegram, radiogram,
cablegram, facsimile transmission, electronic mail or other writing by those not present, and entitled to vote thereat, either before or after the holding thereof. 

 

	138.2	The Board of Directors may in its discretion provide for regular meetings of the Board. Notice of regular meetings need not be given. A meeting may be held without notice, and any business may be transacted thereat, if
every Director shall be present, or if those not present waive notice of the meeting in accordance with article 138.1. No notice of any adjourned quorate meeting need be given. 

 

	139	 A resolution or other document in writing (in electronic form or otherwise) signed (whether by electronic signature, advanced electronic signature or
otherwise as approved by the Directors) by all the Directors entitled to receive notice of a meeting of Directors or of a committee of Directors shall be as valid as if it had been passed at a meeting of Directors or (as the case may

  
 62 

	 	
be) a committee of Directors duly convened and held and may consist of several documents in the like form each signed by one or more Directors, and such resolution or other document or documents
when duly signed may be delivered or transmitted (unless the Directors shall otherwise determine either generally or in any specific case) by facsimile transmission, electronic mail or some other similar means of transmitting the contents of
documents. 

 Rights plan 
  

	140	Subject to applicable law, the Board is hereby expressly authorised to adopt any shareholder rights plan or similar plan, agreement or arrangement pursuant to which, under circumstances provided therein, some or all
Shareholders will have rights to acquire Shares or interests in Shares at a discounted price, not being less than the nominal value, upon such terms and conditions as the Board deems expedient and in the best interests of the Company.

 The seal 
  

	141	The Company, in accordance with article 104, may have for use in any territory outside Ireland one or more additional Seals, each of which shall be a duplicate of the Seal with or without the addition on its face of the
name of one or more territories, districts or places where it is to be used and a securities seal as provided for in the Companies (Amendment) Act 1977. 

  

	142	Any Authorised Person may affix the Seal of the Company over his signature alone to any document of the Company required to be authenticated or executed under Seal. Subject to the Acts, any instrument to which a Seal is
affixed shall be signed by one or more Authorised Persons. As used in this article 142, “Authorised Person” means (i) any Director, the Secretary or any Assistant Secretary, and (ii) any other person authorised for such purpose
by the Board from time to time (whether, in the case of this article 142, identified individually or collectively and whether identified by name, title, function or such other criteria as the Board may determine). 

Dividends and reserves 
  

	143	The Company in general meeting may declare dividends, but no dividends shall exceed the amount recommended by the Directors. 

  

	144	The Directors may from time to time pay to the members such dividends as appear to the Directors to be justified by the profits of the Company. 

 

	145	No dividend shall be paid otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of Part IV of the 1983 Act. 

  
 63 

	146	The Directors may, before recommending any dividend, set aside out of the profits of the Company such sums as they think proper as a reserve or reserves which shall, at the discretion of the Directors, be applicable for
any purpose to which the profits of the Company may be properly applied and pending such application may at the like discretion either be employed in the business of the Company or be invested in such investments as the Directors may lawfully
determine. The Directors may also, without placing the same to reserve, carry forward any profits which they may think it prudent not to divide. 

  

	147	Subject to the rights of persons, if any, entitled to shares with special rights as to dividends, all dividends shall be declared and paid in proportion to the nominal value of the capital paid up or credited as paid up
on the shares in respect whereof the dividend is paid, but no amount paid or credited as paid on a share in advance of calls shall be treated for the purposes of this article as paid on the share. All dividends shall be apportioned and paid
proportionately to the nominal value of the capital paid up or credited as paid up on the shares during any portion or portions of the period in respect of which the dividend is paid; but if any share is issued on terms providing that it shall rank
for dividend as from a particular date, such share shall rank for dividend accordingly. 

  

	148	The Directors may deduct from any dividend payable to any member all sums of money (if any) immediately payable by him to the Company on account of calls or otherwise in relation to the shares of the Company.

  

	149	Any general meeting declaring a dividend or bonus and any resolution of the Directors declaring a dividend may direct payment of such dividend or bonus dividend wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets
and in particular of paid up shares, debentures or debenture stocks of any other company or in any one or more of such ways, and the Directors shall give effect to such resolution, and where any difficulty arises in regard to such distribution, the
Directors may settle the same as they think expedient, and in particular may fix the value for distribution of such specific assets or any part thereof and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any members upon the footing of the value
so fixed, in order to adjust the rights of all the parties, and may vest any such specific assets in trustees as may seem expedient to the Directors. 

150 
  

	 	(a)	The Directors may declare and pay dividends in any currency that the Directors in their discretion shall choose. 

  
 64 

	 	(b)	Any dividend or other moneys payable in respect of any share may be paid by cheque or warrant sent by post, at the risk of the person or persons entitled thereto, to the registered address of the Holder or, where there
are joint Holders, to the registered address of that one of the joint Holders who is first named on the members Register or to such person and to such address as the Holder or joint Holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque or warrant shall
be made payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent and payment of the cheque or warrant shall be a good discharge to the Company. Any joint Holder or other person jointly entitled to a share as aforesaid may give receipts for any dividend
or other moneys payable in respect of the share. Any such dividend or other distribution may also be paid by any other method (including payment in a currency other than US$, electronic funds transfer, direct debit, bank transfer or by means of a
relevant system) which the Directors consider appropriate and any member who elects for such method of payment shall be deemed to have accepted all of the risks inherent therein. The debiting of the Company’s account in respect of the relevant
amount shall be evidence of good discharge of the Company’s obligations in respect of any payment made by any such methods. 

  

	151	No dividend shall bear interest against the Company. 

  

	152	If the Directors so resolve, any dividend which has remained unclaimed for six years from the date of its declaration shall be forfeited and cease to remain owing by the Company. The payment by the Directors of any
unclaimed dividend or other moneys payable in respect of a share into a separate account shall not constitute the Company a trustee in respect thereof. 

Accounts 
 153 

 

	 	153.1	The Directors shall cause to be kept proper books of account, whether in the form of documents, electronic form or otherwise, that: 

  

	 	a)	correctly record and explain the transactions of the Company; 

  

	 	b)	will at any time enable the financial position of the Company to be determined with reasonable accuracy; 

  

	 	c)	will enable the Directors to ensure that any balance sheet, profit and loss account or income and expenditure account of the Company complies with the requirements of the Acts; and 

 

	 	d)	will enable the accounts of the Company to be readily and properly audited. 

  
 65 

 Books of account shall be kept on a continuous and consistent basis and entries therein shall be
made in a timely manner and be consistent from year to year. Proper books of account shall not be deemed to be kept if there are not kept such books of account as are necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the Company’s affairs
and to explain its transactions. 
 The Company may send by post, electronic mail or any other means of electronic communication a summary
financial statement to its members or persons nominated by any member. The Company may meet, but shall be under no obligation to meet, any request from any of its members to be sent additional copies of its full report and accounts or summary
financial statement or other communications with its members. 
  

	 	153.2	The books of account shall be kept at the Office or, subject to the provisions of the Acts, at such other place as the Directors think fit and shall be open at all reasonable times to the inspection of the Directors.

  

	 	153.3	In accordance with the provisions of the Acts, the Directors shall cause to be prepared and to be laid before the annual general meeting of the Company from time to time such profit and loss accounts, balance sheets,
group accounts and reports as are required by the Acts to be prepared and laid before such meeting. 

  

	 	153.4	A copy of every balance sheet (including every document required by law to be annexed thereto) which is to be laid before the annual general meeting of the Company together with a copy of the Directors’ report and
Auditors’ report shall be sent by post, electronic mail or any other means of communication (electronic or otherwise), not less than 21 Clear Days before the date of the annual general meeting, to every person entitled under the provisions of
the Acts to receive them; provided that in the case of those documents sent by electronic mail or any other means of electronic communication, such documents shall be sent with the consent of the recipient, to the address of the recipient notified
to the Company by the recipient for such purposes. 

 Capitalisation of profits 

 

	154	 The Directors may resolve to capitalise any part of the amount for the time being standing to the credit of any of the Company’s reserve accounts
or to the credit of the profit and loss account which is not available for distribution by applying such sum in paying up in full unissued shares to be allotted as fully paid bonus shares to those members of the Company who would have been entitled
to that sum if it were distributable and had been distributed by way of dividend (and in the same proportions). In pursuance of any such resolution under this article 154, the Directors shall make all appropriations and applications of the undivided
profits resolved to be capitalised thereby and all allotments and issues of fully paid shares or debentures, if any, and 

  
 66 

	 	
generally shall do all acts and things required to give effect thereto with full power to the Directors to make such provisions as they shall think fit for the case of shares or debentures
becoming distributable in fractions (and, in particular, without prejudice to the generality of the foregoing, either to disregard such fractions or to sell the shares or debentures represented by such fractions and distribute the net proceeds of
such sale to and for the benefit of the Company or to and for the benefit of the members otherwise entitled to such fractions in due proportions) and to authorise any person to enter on behalf of all the members concerned into an agreement with the
Company providing for the allotment to them respectively, credited as fully paid up, of any further shares or debentures to which they may become entitled on such capitalisation or, as the case may require, for the payment up by the application
thereto of their respective proportions of the profits resolved to be capitalised of the amounts remaining unpaid on their existing shares and any agreement made under such authority shall be binding on all such members. 

Amendment of articles 
  

	155	Subject to the provisions of the Acts, the Company may by Special Resolution alter or add to its articles. 

Audit 
  

	156	Auditors shall be appointed and their duties regulated in accordance with sections 160 to 163 of the Act or any statutory amendment thereof. 

Merger mechanism 
  

	157	 Pursuant to the terms of the Merger, at the time the Merger becomes effective (the “Merger Effective Time”), MergerSub shall deposit with
the exchange agent (the “Exchange Agent”) certificates or, at the Company’s option, evidence of shares in book entry form, representing all of the ordinary shares of €0.001 each in the capital of the Company (the “Company
Shares”) in issue immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time (other than the Company Subscriber Shares and the Scheme Shares) and an amount equal to the aggregate cash amount payable to the holders of Perrigo Company common stock being
$0.01 per share. All certificates or evidence of shares in book entry form representing the Company Shares deposited with the Exchange Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Perrigo Exchange
Fund”. As soon as reasonably practicable after the Merger Effective Time and in any event within four business days after the Merger Effective Time, the Company shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each Holder of record of a certificate or
certificates, which immediately prior to the Merger Effective Time represented outstanding Perrigo Shares (the “ Perrigo Certificates”); and to each Holder of record of non-certificated outstanding Perrigo

  
 67 

	 	
Shares represented by book entry (the “ Perrigo Book Entry Shares”), which at the Merger Effective Time were converted into the right to receive, for each such Perrigo Share, one
Company Share (the “Merger Consideration”): 

  

	 	157.1	a letter of transmittal which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and that risk of loss and title to the Perrigo Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Perrigo Certificates to the Exchange Agent
or, in the case of the Perrigo Book Entry Shares, upon adherence to the procedures set forth in the letter of transmittal, and 

  

	 	157.2	instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Perrigo Certificates and the Perrigo Book Entry Shares (as applicable), in exchange for payment and issuance of the Merger Consideration therefor.

  

	158	Upon surrender of Perrigo Certificates and / or Perrigo Book Entry Shares (as applicable) for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in
accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the Holder of such Perrigo Certificates or Perrigo Book Entry Shares (as applicable) shall be entitled to receive in exchange
therefore (i) that number of Company Shares into which such Holder’s Perrigo shares represented by such Holder’s properly surrendered Perrigo Certificates or Perrigo Book Entry Shares (as applicable) were converted pursuant to the
Merger, and (ii) a cheque in an amount of US dollars equal to any cash dividends or other distributions that such Holder has a right to receive and the amount of any cash payable in lieu of any fractions of shares in the Company that such
Holder has the right to receive pursuant to the Merger and the amount of any cash payable in accordance with the Merger as referred to in article 157. 

  

	159	 In the event of transfers of ownership of shares of Perrigo common stock which are not registered in the transfer records of Perrigo, the proper
number of Company Shares may be transferred to a person other than the person in whose name the Perrigo Certificate or the Perrigo Book Entry Shares (as applicable) so surrendered is registered, if such Perrigo Certificate or the Perrigo Book Entry
Shares (as applicable) shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the person requesting such transfer shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the transfer of Company Shares to a person other than
the registered Holder of such Perrigo Certificate or Perrigo Book Entry Shares (as applicable) or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of the Exchange Agent that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Any portion of the Perrigo Exchange
Fund which has not been transferred to the Holders of the Perrigo Certificates or the Perrigo Book Entry Shares (as applicable) as of the one year anniversary of the Merger Effective Time, shall be delivered to the Company or its designee, upon
demand, and the Company Shares included therein shall be sold at the best price reasonably obtainable at that time. Any Holder of Perrigo Certificates or Perrigo Book Entry

Shares (as applicable) who has not complied with the applicable exchange procedures or duly completed and validly executed the applicable documents necessary to receive the Merger Consideration,
prior to the one year anniversary of the Merger Effective Time shall thereafter look only to the Company for payment of such Holder’s claim for the Merger Consideration (subject to abandoned property, escheat or other similar applicable laws),
such claim only being a claim for cash equal to the amount of monies received by the Company for sale of the Company Shares to which such Holder had been entitled pursuant to the Merger.

 70 

	 	161.9	Without prejudice to the provisions of articles 161.1(a) and 161.1(b), if at any time by reason of the suspension or curtailment of postal services in any territory, the Company is unable effectively to convene a

 71 

 Winding up 
  

	165	If the Company shall be wound up and the assets available for distribution among the members as such shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the paid up or credited as paid up share capital, such assets shall be
distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the members in proportion to the nominal value of the capital paid up or credited as paid up at the commencement of the winding up on the shares held by them respectively. And if
in a winding up the assets available for distribution among the members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the share capital paid up or credited as paid up at the commencement of the winding up, the excess shall be distributed among
the members in proportion to the nominal value of the capital at the commencement of the winding up paid up or credited as paid up on the said shares held by them respectively. Provided that this article shall not affect the rights of the Holders of
shares issued upon special terms and conditions. 

 166 
  

	 	166.1	In case of a sale by the liquidator under section 260 of the Act, the liquidator may by the contract of sale agree so as to bind all the members for the allotment to the members directly of the proceeds of sale in
proportion to their respective interests in the Company and may further by the contract limit a time at the expiration of which obligations or shares not accepted or required to be sold shall be deemed to have been irrevocably refused and be at the
disposal of the Company, but so that nothing herein contained shall be taken to diminish, prejudice or affect the rights of dissenting members conferred by the said section. 

 

	 	166.2	The power of sale of the liquidator shall include a power to sell wholly or partially for debentures, debenture stock, or other obligations of another company, either then already constituted or about to be constituted
for the purpose of carrying out the sale. 

  

	 	166.3	If the Company is wound up, the liquidator, with the sanction of a Special Resolution and any other sanction required by the Acts, may divide among the members in specie or kind the whole or any part of the assets of
the Company (whether they shall consist of property of the same kind or not), and, for such purpose, may value any assets and determine how the division shall be carried out as between the members or different classes of members. The liquidator,
with the like sanction, may vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as, with the like sanction, he determines, but so that no member shall be compelled to accept any assets upon
which there is a liability. 

 Limitation on liability 

 

	167	To the maximum extent permitted by law, no Director or officer of the Company shall be personally liable to the Company or its Shareholders for monetary damages for his or her acts or omissions save where such acts or
omissions involve negligence, default, breach of duty or breach of trust. 

  
 72 

 Indemnity 

168 
  

	 	168.1	Subject to the provisions of and so far as may be admitted by the Acts, every Director and the Secretary of the Company shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Company against all costs, charges, losses, expenses and
liabilities incurred by him in the execution and discharge of his duties or in relation thereto including any liability incurred by him in defending any proceedings, civil or criminal, which relate to anything done or omitted or alleged to have been
done or omitted by him as an officer or employee of the Company and in which judgment is given in his favour (or the proceedings are otherwise disposed of without any finding or admission of any material breach of duty on his part) or in which he is
acquitted or in connection with any application under any statute for relief from liability in respect of any such act or omission in which relief is granted to him by the Court. 

 

	 	168.2	The Directors shall have power to purchase and maintain for any Director, the Secretary or other employees of the Company insurance against any such liability as referred to in section 200 of the Act. 

 

	 	168.3	As far as is permissible under the Acts, the Company shall indemnify any current or former executive officer of the Company (excluding any present or former Directors of the Company or Secretary of the Company), or any
person who is serving or has served at the request of the Company as a director or executive officer of another company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including any Company subsidiary (each individually, a “Covered Person”),
against any expenses, including attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative, to which he or she was, is, or is threatened to be made a party, or is otherwise involved (a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that he or she is or was a Covered Person; provided, however, that
this provision shall not indemnify any Covered Person against any liability arising out of (a) any fraud or dishonesty in the performance of such Covered Person’s duty to the Company, or (b) such Covered Party’s conscious,
intentional or wilful breach of the obligation to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, this section shall not extend to any matter which would render it void
pursuant to the Acts or to any person holding the office of auditor in relation to the Company. 

  
 73 

	 	168.4	In the case of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by or in the name of the Company, the Company shall indemnify each Covered Person against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually
and reasonably incurred in connection with the defence or the settlement thereof, except no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for fraud or dishonesty
in the performance of his or her duty to the Company, or for conscious, intentional or wilful breach of his or her obligation to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Company, unless and only to the extent that the
High Court of Ireland or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such Covered Person is fairly and reasonably
entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court shall deem proper. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, this section shall not extend to any matter which would render it void pursuant to the Acts or to any person holding the office of
auditor in relation to the Company. 

  

	 	168.5	Any indemnification under this article (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company only as authorised in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the Covered Person is proper in the
circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in this article. Such determination shall be made by the Board. To the extent, however, that any Covered Person has been successful on the merits or otherwise in
defence of any proceeding, or in defence of any claim, issue or matter therein, such Covered Person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith,
without necessity of authorisation in the specific case. 

  

	 	168.6	As far as permissible under the Acts, expenses, including attorneys’ fees, incurred in defending any proceeding for which indemnification is permitted pursuant to this article shall be paid by the Company in
advance of the final disposition of such proceeding upon receipt by the Board of an undertaking by the particular indemnitee to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company
pursuant to these articles. 

  

	 	168.7	 It being the policy of the Company that indemnification of the persons specified in this article shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law,
the indemnification provided by this article shall not be deemed exclusive (i) of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under these articles, any agreement, any insurance purchased by
the Company, vote of members or disinterested directors, or pursuant to the direction (however embodied) of any court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in

  
 74 

	 	
another capacity while holding such office, or (ii) of the power of the Company to indemnify any person who is or was an employee or agent of the Company or of another company, joint
venture, trust or other enterprise which he or she is serving or has served at the request of the Company, to the same extent and in the same situations and subject to the same determinations as are hereinabove set forth. As used in this article,
references to the “Company” include all constituent companies in a consolidation or merger in which the Company or a predecessor to the Company by consolidation or merger was involved. The indemnification provided by this article shall
continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Covered Person and shall inure to the benefit of their heirs, executors, and administrators. 

Untraced Holders 
 169 

 

	 	169.1	The Company shall be entitled to sell at the best price reasonably obtainable any share of a member or any share to which a person is entitled by transmission if and provided that: 

 

	 	a)	for a period of six years (not less than three dividends having been declared and paid) no cheque or warrant sent by the Company through the post in a prepaid letter addressed to the member or to the person entitled by
transmission to the share or stock at his address on the Register or other the last known address given by the member or the person entitled by transmission t o which cheques and warrants are to be sent has been cashed and no communication has been
received by the Company from the member or the person entitled by transmission; and 

  

	 	b)	at the expiration of the said period of six years the Company has given notice by advertisement in a leading Dublin newspaper and a newspaper circulating in the area in which the address referred to in article 169.1(a)
is located of its intention to sell such share or stock; 

  

	 	c)	the Company has not during the further period of three months after the date of the advertisement and prior to the exercise of the power of sale received any communication from the member or person entitled by
transmission; and 

  

	 	d)	if so required by the rules of any securities exchange upon which the shares in question are listed, notice has been given to that exchange of the Company’s intention to make such sale. 

  
 75 

	 	169.2	To the extent necessary in order to comply with any laws or regulations to which the Company is subject in relation to escheatment, abandonment of property or other similar or analogous laws or regulations
(“Applicable Escheatment Laws”), the Company may deal with any share of any member and any unclaimed cash payments relating to such share in any manner which it sees fit, including (but not limited to) transferring or selling such share
and transferring to third parties any unclaimed cash payments relating to such share. 

  

	 	169.3	The Company may only exercise the powers granted to it in this article 169 in circumstances where it has complied with, or procured compliance with, the required procedures (as set out in Applicable Escheatment Laws)
with respect to attempting to identify and locate the relevant member of the Company. 

  

	 	169.4	If during any six year period referred to in article 169.1, further shares have been issued in right of those held at the beginning of such period or of any previously issued during such period and all the other
requirements of this article (other than the requirement that they be in issue for six years) have been satisfied in regard to the further shares, the Company may also sell the further shares. 

 

	 	169.5	To give effect to any such sale the Company may appoint any person to execute as transferor an instrument of transfer of such share and such instrument of transfer shall be as effective as if it had been executed by the
registered Holder of or person entitled by transmission to such share. 

  

	 	169.6	The Company shall account to the member or other person entitled to such share for the net proceeds of such sale by carrying all moneys in respect thereof to a separate account which shall be a permanent debt of the
Company and the Company shall be deemed to be a debtor and not a trustee in respect thereof for such member or other person. Monies carried to such separate account may either be employed in the business of the Company or invested in such
investments (other than shares of the Company or its holding company if any) as the Directors may from time to time think fit. 

Destruction of documents 
  

	170	The Company may destroy: 

  

	 	170.1	any dividend mandate or any variation or cancellation thereof or any notification of change of name or address, at any time after the expiry of two years from the date such mandate variation, cancellation or
notification was recorded by the Company; 

  

	 	170.2	any instrument of transfer of shares which has been registered, at any time after the expiry of six years from the date of registration; 

  
 76 

	 	170.3	all share certificates which have been cancelled at any time after the expiration of one year from the date of cancellation thereof;

	 	170.7	any other document on the basis of which any entry in the Register was made, at any time after the expiry of six years from the date an entry in the Register was first made in respect of it, 

and it shall be presumed conclusively in favour of the Company that every share certificate (if any) so destroyed was a valid certificate duly
and properly sealed and that every instrument of transfer so destroyed was a valid and effective instrument duly and properly registered and that every other document destroyed hereunder was a valid and effective document in accordance with the
recorded particulars thereof in the books or records of the Company provided always that: 
  

	 	a)	the foregoing provisions of this article shall apply only to the destruction of a document in good faith and without express notice to the Company that the preservation of such document was relevant to a claim;

  

	 	b)	nothing contained in this article shall be construed as imposing upon the Company any liability in respect of the destruction of any such document earlier than as aforesaid or in any case where the conditions of proviso
(a) are not fulfilled; and
