Total Voting Rights, Share Capital

and Share Admission

Geneva, 8 February 2016. Wizz Air Holdings Plc ("Wizz Air") has submitted an application for the admission of 1,423,596 shares relating to shares vested as part of the company's employee share option scheme to the premium segment of the Official List of the Financial Conduct Authority and to trading on the main market of the London Stock Exchange ("Admission").  Admission is expected to become effective and dealings in the shares are expected to commence at 8.00 a.m. on 9 February 2016.

In accordance with Rule 5.6.1R of the Financial Conduct Authority's Disclosure Rules and Transparency Rules (the "DTRs"), Wizz Air notifies that as at 5 February 2016:

-       it has two classes of shares in issue, being ordinary shares of £0.0001 each ("Ordinary Shares") and convertible shares of £0.0001 each ("Convertible Shares");

-       the total number of Ordinary Shares in issue is 56,557,116;

-       the total number of Convertible Shares in issue is 44,830,503; and

-       there are no shares held in treasury.

Each Ordinary Share carries one voting right per Ordinary Share.  The Convertible Shares do not carry voting rights, save in very limited circumstances.

The total voting rights figure of 56,557,116 may be used by shareholders (and others with notification obligations) as the denominator for the calculations by which they will determine whether they are required to notify their interest in, or a change to their interest in, the Company under the DTRs.

The total figure of 126,764,779 may be used by shareholders for the Company's theoretical fully diluted share capital, as at 5 February 2016, such total figure comprising 56,557,116 issued Ordinary Shares, 44,830,503 Convertible Shares, 24,246,715 new Ordinary Shares which would have been issued if the full principal of outstanding convertible notes, had been fully converted on 5 February 2016 (excluding any Ordinary Shares that would be issued in respect of accrued but unpaid interest on that date) and 1,130,445 new Ordinary Shares which may be issued upon exercise of vested but unexercised employee share options.
