These share purchases form part of the Company's existing share buy-back programme, details of which were announced on 8 November 2016.

In respect of this programme, which will operate until not later than 28 February 2017, Citigroup Global Markets Limited ("Citigroup") and J&E Davy ("Davy") will make trading decisions in relation to Ryanair's Ordinary Shares and American Depositary Shares repurchased under the buy-back programme independently of, and uninfluenced by, Ryanair.  Any such acquisitions will be effected within certain pre-set parameters, and in accordance with both Ryanair's general authority to repurchase Ordinary Shares and Ordinary Shares underlying American Depositary Shares, and Chapter 9 of the Listing Rules of the Irish Stock Exchange, the applicable laws and regulations of the Irish Stock Exchange and where relevant, those provisions of Market Abuse Regulation 596/2014/EU dealing with buy-back programmes and Rule 10b-18 and Rule 10b-5 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

Following the cancellation of the Ordinary Shares repurchased the Company will have 1,236,819,759 Ordinary Shares in issue. To the extent that further Ordinary Shares (including Ordinary Shares underlying American Depositary Shares) are repurchased under the programme, these will also be cancelled.
