2.3 Application for Options under the Scheme shall be made in such form as the Board may require and shall be accompanied by the application form for a Savings Contract which has been signed by the applicant. Subject to the limits set out in Rule 2.5, such application shall also specify whether, for the purpose of determining the number of Shares over which an Option is to be granted, the amount the applicant wishes to save each month under the Savings Contract and shall authorise the Participating Company by which such employee is from time to time employed to deduct such amount (or such lesser amount as is appropriate to the reduced amount determined in accordance with Rule 3) from his pay.

2.4 The amount for which Shares may be acquired under any Option shall be as nearly as possible (without involving fractions of a Share) equal to but shall not exceed the Repayment (as reduced pursuant to Rule 3, where appropriate) of the Participant under the Savings Contract entered into by him in connection with the grant of that Option.

2.5 The minimum monthly contribution payable under a Savings Contract by a Participant shall be the Minimum Contribution. The aggregate of any Participant’s Monthly Contributions under all Savings Contracts shall not exceed the Maximum Contribution.

2.6 Each application for an Option shall provide that, in the event of excess applications, each application shall be deemed to have been modified or withdrawn in accordance with the steps taken by the Board to scale down applications pursuant to Rule 3.

2.7 Each application shall be deemed to be for an Option over the largest whole number of Shares which can be acquired at the Option Price with the Repayment under the Savings Contract entered into in connection with the Option.

2.8 On any occasion on which the Board invites applications for Options, the Board may in its discretion determine and announce the minimum and maximum level of contributions which may be paid (which contribution levels shall not be less or more than the respective such amounts as are permitted at the date of invitation by law, the Scheme or by the relevant Savings Contract) and/or the maximum number of Shares in respect of which Options will be granted in response to applications made pursuant to the invitations issued on that occasion.

3. SCALING DOWN

3.1 If valid applications are received for a total number of Shares in excess of any maximum number of Shares determined by the Board pursuant to Rule 2, or any limitation under Rule 5, the Board shall scale down applications, at its absolute discretion, by carrying out the following successive steps:

(a) in respect of each election for a Savings Contract with a Three Year Maturity Date, the Repayment shall be deemed not to include the relevant bonus; and

(b) so far as necessary, the proposed monthly contributions shall be reduced pro rata to the excess over such amount as the Board shall determine for this purpose, being not less than the Minimum Contribution; and

6

(c) so far as necessary, (but subject to Rule 3.2 below), applications shall be selected by lot until the number of Shares available equals or exceeds such total number of Shares applied for.

3.2 If the number of Shares available is insufficient to enable an Option based on Monthly Contributions of the Minimum Contribution a month to be granted to each Eligible Employee making a valid application, the Board may, as an alternative to selecting by lot, determine in its absolute discretion that no Options shall be granted.

3.3 If, in applying the scaling down provisions contained in this Rule 3, Options cannot be granted within the 30 day period referred to in Rule 4.3 below, the Board may extend that period by 12 days regardless of the expiry of the relevant Invitation Period.

4. GRANT OF OPTIONS

4.1 No Option shall be granted to any person if at the Date of Grant that person shall have ceased to be an Eligible Employee.

4.2 No Option shall be granted to any person at any time when he has, or has within the preceding 12 months had a Material Interest in a Close Company being either the Company or a company which has Control of the Company or is a member of a consortium which owns such a company.

4.3 Within 30 days of any Dealing Day by reference to which the Option Price was fixed (which date shall be within an Invitation Period) the Board may, subject to Rule 3 above, grant to each Eligible Employee who has submitted a valid application an Option in respect of the number of Shares for which application has been deemed to be made under Rule 2.7.

4.4 The Company shall issue to each Participant an option certificate in such form (not inconsistent with the provisions of the Scheme) as the Board may from time to time prescribe. Each such option certificate shall specify the Date of Grant of the Option, the number and class of Shares over which the Option is granted, the Option Price and the Maturity Date.

4.5 Except as otherwise provided in these Rules, every Option shall be personal to the Participant to whom it is granted and shall not be transferable.

4.6 No amount shall be paid in respect of the grant of an Option.

5. LIMITATIONS ON GRANTS OF OPTIONS

5.1 The number of Shares for which Options may be granted under the Scheme in any period of ten successive years shall not, when added to the number of Shares which shall have been or remain to be issued during the same period under share schemes which are required to be made available to all employees of the Company, exceed such number of Shares as represents five per cent, of the issued ordinary share capital of the Company.

5.2 In determining the above limits no account shall be taken of any Shares where the right to acquire such Shares was released, lapsed or otherwise has become incapable of exercise.

8.2 In the event of a Participant failing to exercise an Option pursuant to Rule 8.1 within 6 months of being first required or entitled to do so, such Option shall be deemed to have lapsed.

If the person referred to in Rule 7.1, 7.2 or 8.1(a) (reading the reference in Rule 7.1 to “proposes to obtain” as “obtains”) is a company (“Acquiring Company”), a Participant may, at any time during the period set out in Rule 9.2, by agreement with the Acquiring Company, release his Option in whole or in part in consideration of the grant to him of a new option (“New Option”) which is equivalent to the Option but which relates to shares (“New Shares”) in:

10

(b) the total market value, immediately before the release of the Option, of the Shares which were subject to the Option is as nearly as may be equal to the total market value, immediately after the grant of the New Option, of the New Shares (market value being determined for this purpose in accordance with section 548 of the Act); and

(c) the total amount payable by a Participant for the acquisition of the New Shares under the New Option is as nearly as may be equal to the total amount that would have been payable by the Option Holder for the acquisition of the Shares under the Option.

10. MANNER OF EXERCISE

10.1 An Option may only be exercised during the periods specified in Rules 6, 7 and 8, and only with monies not exceeding the amount of the Repayment under the Savings Contract entered into in connection therewith as at the date of such exercise. For this purpose, no account shall be taken of such part (if any) of the Repayment of any Monthly Contribution the due date for the payment of which under the Savings Contract arises after the date of the Repayment.

10.2 Exercise shall be by the delivery to the secretary of the Company, or other duly appointed agent, of an option certificate covering the Shares over which the Option is then to be exercised, with the notice of exercise in the prescribed form duly completed and signed by the Participant (or by his duly authorised agent) together with evidence of the Repayment under the Savings Contract and any remittance for the Exercise Price payable, or authority to the Company to withdraw and apply monies equal to the Exercise Price from the Savings Contract, to acquire the Shares over which the Option is to be exercised. The effective date of exercise shall be the date of delivery of the notice of exercise.

10.3 When an Option is exercised only in part, it shall lapse to the extent of the unexercised balance and the balance of the monies in the Savings Contract shall be returned to the Participant.

11. ISSUE OR PURCHASE OF SHARES

11.1 Shares to be issued or purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be allotted or purchased, as applicable within 28 days following the effective date of exercise of the Option.

11.2 Shares to be issued or purchased pursuant to the Scheme will rank pari passu in all respects with the Shares then in issue, except that they will not rank for any rights attaching to Shares by reference to a record date preceding the date of exercise.

11

11.4 Where Shares are to be delivered to a Participant as a consequence of the exercise of an Option, the relevant Shares shall be delivered to the Participant in such manner as the Compensation Committee may in its discretion determine, including but not limited to procuring the issue of DIs representing the relevant Shares to the Participant or its nominee(s) and/or making arrangements for the relevant Shares to be held on behalf of the Participant in any securities settlement system to which the Shares are eligible for admission from time to time.

12. ALTERATION OF CAPITAL

12.1 Subject to the provisions of Rule 8 hereof, in the event of any capitalisation issue, rights issue, sub-division, consolidation or any reduction or other reorganisation of the capital of the Company, the number of Shares composed in any Option, and/or the Option Price therefor may be adjusted by the Board in such manner as it may in its absolute discretion, with the prior written approval of the Revenue Commissioners determine to be appropriate, provided that in the event that any alteration of capital results in the reduction of the Option Price to less than the nominal value of the Shares, the Option Price shall be increased to the nominal value of such Shares.

12.2 All Participants shall be informed of any such variation as soon as practicable thereafter.

13. ADMINISTRATION

13.1 Any notice or other communication made under, or in connection with, the Scheme may be given by personal delivery or by sending the same by email or post, in the case of a company to its registered office and in the case of an individual to his last known address, or, where he is a director or employee of a Participating Company, either to his last known address or to the address of the place of business at which he performs the whole or substantially the whole of the duties of his office or employment or by email to the email address assigned to him in connection with his office or employment (save where an employee is absent from his employment for a period of leave, other than annual leave, during which he will not have access to such email address), and where a notice or other communication is given by post, it shall be deemed to have been received 48 hours after it was put into the post properly addressed and stamped and if sent by email shall be deemed to have been duly given on transmission.

13.2 The Company may distribute to Participants copies of any notice or document normally sent by the Company to the holders of Shares.

13.3 If any option certificate shall be worn out, defaced or lost, it may be replaced on such evidence being provided as the Board may require.

13.4 The Company shall at all times keep available for allotment unissued Shares at least sufficient to satisfy all Options under which Shares may be subscribed.

13.5 The decision of the Board in any dispute relating to an Option or the due exercise thereof or any other matter in respect of the Scheme shall be final and conclusive.

13.6 The costs of introducing and administering the Scheme shall be borne by the Company.

12

14. AMENDMENTS

14.1 Except as described in this Rule 14, the Compensation Committee may, with the prior written approval of the Revenue Commissioners, at any time amend the Rules.

14.2 Without the prior approval of the Company in general meeting, an amendment may not be made for the benefit of existing or future Participant to the Rules of the Scheme relating to:

(a) the persons to whom or for whom securities or other benefits are provided for under the Scheme; or

(b) the limit on the number or amount or other benefits of Shares which may be acquired under the Scheme.

14.3 An amendment may not adversely affect the rights of an existing Participant except where the amendment has been approved by Participants who together represent the holders of Awards which have the majority of Shares which are the subject all Awards outstanding at such time.

14.4 The Compensation Committee shall have the power to make such amendments and alterations as are required, including the power to create new share based incentive plans and sub plans for Eligible Employees in jurisdictions outside of Ireland, to take account of local restrictions, taxation requirements, exchange control, security laws etc or to take advantage of taxation laws specific to the provision of share based incentive schemes in any jurisdiction.

15. NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS

15.1 During his lifetime only the individual to whom an Option is granted may exercise that Option.

15.2 An Option shall immediately cease to be exercisable if it is transferred or assigned (other than to personal representatives upon the death of the Participant), mortgaged, charged or otherwise disposed of by the Participant.

16. GENERAL

16.1 The Scheme may be terminated at any time by resolution of the Board or by ordinary resolution of the Company in general meeting. The Board may decide to grant no further Options and may suspend the Scheme at any time. Termination of the Scheme shall be without prejudice to the subsisting rights of Participants.

16.2 The rights and obligations of any individual under the terms of his office or employment with the Company or a Participating Company shall not be affected by his participation in the Scheme or any right which he may have to participate therein, and an individual who participates therein shall waive all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of his office or employment with any such company for any reason whatsoever insofar as those rights arise, or may arise, from his ceasing to have rights under or being entitled to exercise any Option under the Scheme as a result of such termination, or from the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements.

13

16.3 These Rules shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, Irish law. The Irish courts will have jurisdiction to settle any dispute in relation to the Scheme. The jurisdiction agreement contained in this Rule is made for the benefit of the Company only, which accordingly retains the right (i) to bring proceedings in any other court of competent jurisdiction; or (ii) to require any dispute to be settled in accordance with Rule 17. By accepting the grant of an Option, a Participant is deemed to have agreed to submit to such jurisdiction.

17. DISPUTES

Any disputes arising hereunder may be referred by the Board to arbitration pursuant to the provisions of the Arbitration Act 2010 and any Participant so affected will submit to such arbitration.

References to a “Rule” in this Appendix 2 shall be to the Rules of the Scheme, except as otherwise expressly provided herein.

21

2. GENERAL

2.1 Options granted to US Taxpayers are intended to be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A pursuant to the short-term deferral exemption described in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the US Treasury Regulations, and the Scheme and any option certificate in respect of an Option granted to a US Taxpayer shall be interpreted, operated and administered in a manner consistent with such intention. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Scheme or any option certificate, payment in respect of any Option hereunder, including the issuance of Shares pursuant to any Option granted under the Scheme, shall be paid or transferred, if at all, to a US Taxpayer within the Short-Term Deferral Period.

2.2 Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, an Option granted under the Scheme to a US Taxpayer shall become vested and exercisable to the extent permitted under the relevant Rule of the Scheme on the earliest to occur of the following events:

(a) the Maturity Date, subject to the US Taxpayer’s continued employment with a Participating Company on such date;

(b) the US Taxpayer’s attainment of the Specified Age, subject to the US Taxpayer’s continued employment with a Participating Company on such date;

(c) the termination of the US Taxpayer’s employment with each Participating Company due to the US Taxpayer’s death or incapacity;

(d) the termination of the US Taxpayer’s employment with each Participating Company due to redundancy;

(e) the US Taxpayer’s ceasing to be eligible to participate in the Scheme due to the occurrence of an event under Rule 6.3(b) or 6.3(c), subject to the US Taxpayer’s continued employment with a Participating Company on such date;

(g) the occurrence of an event under Rule 8, subject to the US Taxpayer’s continued employment with a Participating Company on such date.

Once vested and exercisable as provided above, such Option shall remain exercisable (subject to any applicable dealing or other securities law restrictions) until the earlier of the expiration of the exercise period specified in the relevant option certificate (but not less than thirty (30) days following the termination of the US Taxpayer’s employment or, if shorter, the remaining term of the Option) and the expiration of the Short-Term Deferral Period, and thereafter, such Option shall immediately lapse and automatically be cancelled and cease to have any further legal force or effect whatsoever.

2.3 No setoffs or deductions against any amounts owed to a US Taxpayer by a Participating Company may be made hereunder to the extent that such setoff or deduction would result in adverse tax consequences to the US Taxpayer under Section 409A.

22

2.4 For avoidance of doubt, the Company may decide from time to time whether the monthly contribution to a Savings Account may, provided the prior written consent of the Eligible Employee has been obtained, be deducted from his/her monthly net pay.

2.5 To the extent that any exchange or adjustment of an Option occurs under Rule 9 or Rule 12, respectively, the terms and conditions of any New Option or adjusted Option, as applicable, shall not modify the requirement that such Option shall only be exercisable prior to the expiration of the Short-Term Deferral Period or otherwise result in any change to the terms and conditions of such Option if such modification or change would result in adverse tax consequences to a US Taxpayer under Section 409A.

2.6 Notwithstanding any provision of the Scheme or any option certificate to the contrary, the Compensation Committee, to the extent it deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, reserves the right, but shall not be required, to unilaterally amend or modify the Scheme (including this Appendix 2) or any option certificate in respect to an Option granted to a US Taxpayer so that the Option qualifies for the short-term deferral exemption from Section 409A. No amendment may be made to the Scheme (including this Appendix 2) or any option certificate, or otherwise apply to an Option, if and to the extent that the amendment would cause any Option granted to a US Taxpayer to violate Section 409A. The Company shall have no liability to a US Taxpayer, or any other party, if an Option that is intended to be exempt from Section 409A is not so exempt or for any action taken by the Compensation Committee or the Company and, in the event that any amount or benefit under the Scheme becomes subject to penalties under Section 409A, responsibility for payment of such penalties shall rest solely with the affected US Taxpayer and not with the Company.

3. SECURITIES LAW COMPLIANCE

3.1 Notwithstanding any provision of the Scheme or any option certificate to the contrary, (i) no Option shall be granted and no Share shall be delivered or sold to a US Taxpayer unless such grant, delivery and sale is in compliance with US federal securities laws and any applicable US state securities laws, and (ii) Shares acquired by a US Taxpayer pursuant to the exercise of Options may only be resold in compliance with the registration requirements or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the US Securities Act of 1933, as it may be amended from time to time.

(d) the rights of a California Participant to acquire Shares under the Scheme shall be non-transferable except to the extent of a transfer by will, laws of descent and distribution, to a revocable trust, or as permitted by Rule 701;

(e) the number of Shares issuable upon the exercise of an Option and the Option Price thereof shall be proportionately adjusted in the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination, reclassification or other distribution of the Company’s equity securities without the receipt of consideration by the Company of or on the Shares; and

(f) the number of California Participants may not exceed 35 unless the Scheme is approved by holders of a majority of the outstanding securities of the Company entitled to vote within twelve (12) months of the issuance of Shares under the Scheme in California.

3.3 In lieu of meeting the requirements set forth under Rule 3.2 of this Appendix 2, Options may be granted under the Scheme to any California Participant in accordance with any other registration exemption permitted under California Securities Law or by qualification under such law or compliance with applicable registration requirements, subject to such conditions as required by such law.

For the avoidance of doubt, the Compensation Committee and/or the Board have the full authority, consistent with the Rules, to administer this Appendix 2, including authority to interpret and construe any provision of this Appendix 2, to identify Eligible Employees and Participants with respect to whom the provisions of this Appendix 2 may apply, and to adopt any regulations for administering this Appendix 2 and any documents it thinks necessary or appropriate. The decision of the Compensation Committee or Board, as applicable, on any matter concerning this Appendix 2 will be final and binding on all parties, notwithstanding any delegation of authority to a sub-committee.

10. GENERAL RISKS

10.1. Every investment involves an element of risk and Eligible Employees should be aware that there are risks associated with share ownership. Shares should be considered a long-term investment. Ordinary shares in capital of the Company are subject to the general market risk that is inherent in all securities listed on a stock exchange. This may result in fluctuations in its share price that are not explained by its fundamental operations and activities.

10.2. The Company is a limited liability company which means that people holding Shares in the Company are not required to contribute any more capital for their Shares once those Shares have been fully paid for, even in the event of losses by the Company. However, it is possible that if there are losses, or profits fall, holders of Shares may not receive dividends or dividends may be reduced and the value of their Shares may fall. The price of Shares as quoted on the Stock Exchange is volatile and moves up and down with market sentiment as well as factors which are specific to the Company. The price at which the Shares trade on the Stock Exchange may be higher or lower than historical prices. If investors decide to sell their Shares, the amount which may be received on the sale may be higher or lower than their present market price. The Company’s latest annual report contains details of its performance and the factors which have impacted upon this performance during the period to which the report relates. These documents may be viewed on the Company’s website at the following link: https://www.flutter.com/investors/results-reports-and-presentations/year/2023/.

10.3. The Company is also required to notify the Stock Exchange of information about specified events and matters as they arise for the purposes of making that information available to the stock market conducted by the Stock Exchange. The most recent annual report and announcements of the Stock Exchange should be referred to for details of these matters.

10.4. In the future, the Company may elect to issue Shares or other securities.

“16.5 If due to exchange rate fluctuations, the contents of the Savings Account are insufficient to exercise the Option in full (taking into account any contributions plus the Bonus), the Company may require, at its discretion, that the Participant shall make additional payments to the Savings Account so as make good such shortfall prior to any exercise of an Option. If on the other hand, there is an excess of funds in the Savings Account due to exchange rate fluctuations, the excess funds less the bank transfer fee determined by the company will be retained by the Participant and additional Shares may not be purchased.

16.6 For the avoidance of doubt, a Participant may not make additional contributions to the Savings Account other than as provided in Rule 18.4 and for cessation of employment reasons set out in Rule 6.3. A Participant who is entitled to make additional contributions due to cessation of employment under Rule 6.3 shall do so in the manner notified to the Participant in writing, which shall direct whether such additional contributions are (i) payable in a lump sum payment either (at the Company’s direction) to the designated company account or to the Company’s share plan administrator from time to time at the end of the permitted additional savings period; or (ii) payable in monthly instalments to the Savings Account.

46

16.7 If withholding tax obligations arise under Portuguese or foreign law in connection with any transaction under the Scheme (including the grant or exercise of options) then the Participant, or other person in respect of whom such obligations arise shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to meet those obligations. The Company will not be required to issue any shares under the Scheme until such obligations are satisfied.

16.8 For avoidance of doubt, the Company may decide from time to time whether the monthly contribution to a Savings Account may, provided the prior written consent of the Eligible Employee has been obtained, be deducted from his/her monthly net pay.”

These written materials do not constitute an offer to sell, or a solicitation of offers to purchase or subscribe for, transferable securities in Portugal. The Company has not authorized any offer to the public of transferable securities in Portugal and no action has been undertaken or will be undertaken to make an offer to the public of transferable securities in Portugal requiring the publication of a prospectus. Shares may only be subscribed for under circumstances which do not require the publication by the Company of a prospectus in Portugal. The subscription of Shares under the Scheme exclusively corresponds to the exercise of the Options previously granted to Participants.
