Explanation of Responses:

Id	Content
F1	On March 1, 2023, Linde plc (formerly Rounderway plc), an Irish public limited company ("New Linde"), became the successor of Linde plc, an Irish public limited company ("Old Linde"), pursuant to a scheme of arrangement and merger under Irish law. Pursuant to the scheme of arrangement, all outstanding ordinary shares of Old Linde were exchanged, on a one-for-one basis, for ordinary shares of New Linde, and Old Linde subsequently merged into New Linde and ceased to exist. The transaction did not alter the relative interests of security holders.
F2	Ordinary shares acquired pursuant to the payout of a restricted stock unit ("RSU") grant made on March 1, 2022.
F3	RSUs that have fully vested but whose payout in Linde plc Ordinary Shares has been deferred by the reporting person until termination of service as a director or a specific future date.
F4	Conversion to Linde plc Ordinary Shares is on a one-for-one basis.
F5	Deferred stock units acquired under the Linde Director's Fees Deferral Plan and are to be settled in Linde plc Ordinary Shares upon the reporting person's retirement or termination of service.
