amount for such day and the amount so determined shall be deemed to
be appropriate for that day for the purposes of calculating the
maximum price; and if the means of providing the foregoing
information as to dealings and prices by reference to which the
maximum price is to be determined is altered or is replaced by some
other means, then the maximum price shall be determined on the

appropriate for each of the five business days immediately
preceding the day on which such treasury share is re-allotted, as
determined from information published in the Euronext Dublin Daily
Official List (or any successor publication thereto or any
equivalent publication for securities admitted to trading on the
Euronext Growth Market) reporting the business done on each of
those five business days:

offer (but not a bid) price reported, or if there shall not be any
bid or offer price reported, for any particular day, then that day
shall not be treated as a business day for the purposes of this
sub-paragraph (b); provided that if for any reason it shall be
impossible or impracticable to determine an appropriate amount for
any of those five days on the above basis, the Directors may, if
they think fit and having taken into account the prices at which
recent dealings in such shares have taken place, determine an
amount for such day and the amount so determined shall be deemed to
be appropriate for that day for the purposes of calculating the
Appropriate Price; and if the means of providing the foregoing
information as to dealings and prices by reference to which the
Appropriate Price is to be determined is altered or is replaced by
some other means, then the Appropriate Price shall be determined on
