Due to the limits on numbers, shareholders who travel to the AGM may not be admitted.

Whether or not shareholders are proposing to attend the AGM in person, Wizz Air encourages shareholders to participate in the AGM by voting by proxy to ensure all shareholder votes are counted. The business at the AGM will be curtailed to deal only with proposing and voting on the resolutions set out in the Notice of AGM, with no wider presentations on business performance.

The voting results of all resolutions proposed at the AGM will be published on the Company's website ( http://wizzair.com ) as soon as possible after the conclusion of the AGM .

Furthermore, Maria Kyriacou has informed the Company that she will not be available for re-election at the AGM and she will retire from the Board effective 27 July. Maria was appointed as an independent Non-Executive Director in September 2018.
