Exhibit 99.4

JAZZ PHARMACEUTICALS PLC

AMENDED AND RESTATED

2007 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS STOCK OPTION PLAN

1.	GENERAL.

The Company, by means of the Plan, seeks to retain the services of its Non-Employee Directors, to secure and retain the services of new Non-Employee Directors and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company and any Affiliate by giving them an opportunity to benefit from increases in value of the Ordinary Shares through the grant of Nonstatutory Stock Options. The Plan is also intended to provide a source of Ordinary Shares to be used to pay distributions under the Company’s Directors Deferred Compensation Plan, but only to the extent such Ordinary Shares were credited prior to August 15, 2010 to a Non-Employee Director’s stock account pursuant to the Company’s Directors Deferred Compensation Plan.

2.	ADMINISTRATION.

(a) Administration by Board. The Board shall administer the Plan. The Board may not delegate administration of the Plan.

(b) Powers of Board. The Board shall have the power, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan:

(i) To determine from time to time (A) which of the Non-Employee Directors eligible under the Plan shall be granted Options; (B) when and how each Option shall be granted; (C) the provisions of each Option granted (which need not be identical), (D) the number of Ordinary Shares with respect to which each Option shall be granted; and (E) the Fair Market Value applicable to an Option.

(ii) To determine the provisions of each Option to the extent not specified in the Plan.

(iii) To construe and interpret the Plan and Options granted under it, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan or in any Option Agreement, in a manner and to the extent it shall deem necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective.

(iv) To amend the Plan or an Option as provided in Section 9.

(v) To terminate or suspend the Plan as provided in Section 10.

(vi) Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as the Board deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of the Company and that are not in conflict with the provisions of the Plan.

(c) Effect of Board’s Decision. All determinations, interpretations and constructions made by the Board in good faith shall not be subject to review by any person and shall be final, binding and conclusive on all persons.

3.	SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN.

(a) Share Reserve. Subject to the provisions of Section 8(a) relating to Capitalization Adjustments, the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares that may be issued under the Plan shall not exceed two hundred thousand (200,000), plus an automatic annual increase beginning on January 1, 2008 and ending on (and including) January 1, 2017, in an amount equal to the sum of (i) the excess of (A) the number of Ordinary Shares subject to Options granted during the preceding calendar year, over (B) the number of Ordinary Shares added back to the share reserve during the preceding calendar year pursuant to the provisions of Section 3(b), plus (ii) for the automatic annual increases occurring on or prior to January 1, 2010 only, the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares credited to the Non-Employee Directors’ stock accounts pursuant to the Company’s Directors Deferred Compensation Plan during the applicable preceding calendar year; provided, however, that such automatic annual increase shall not exceed two hundred thousand (200,000) Ordinary Shares. For the avoidance of doubt, no Ordinary Shares credited to the Non-Employee Directors’ stock accounts pursuant to the Company’s Directors Deferred Compensation Plan on or after August 15, 2010 shall act to increase the share reserve under this Section 3(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may act prior to the first day of any calendar year, to provide that there shall be no increase in the share reserve for such calendar year or that the increase in the share reserve for such calendar year shall be a lesser number of Ordinary Shares than would otherwise occur pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(b) Reversion of Shares to the Share Reserve. If an Option shall for any reason expire or otherwise terminate, in whole or in part, without having been exercised in full, the Ordinary Shares not acquired under such Option shall revert to and again become available for issuance under the Plan. If any Ordinary Shares subject to an Option are not delivered to an Optionholder because such Ordinary Shares are withheld for the payment of taxes, the number of

Ordinary Shares that are not delivered to the Optionholder shall remain available for issuance under the Plan. If the exercise price of an Option is satisfied by tendering Ordinary Shares held by the Optionholder (either by actual delivery or attestation), then the number of Ordinary Shares so tendered shall remain available for issuance under the Plan.

(c) Payment Shares. Subject to the overall limitation in Section 3(a) on the number of Ordinary Shares that may be issued pursuant to Options, Ordinary Shares may be used as the form of payment for distributions under the Company’s Directors Deferred Compensation Plan but only to the extent such Ordinary Shares were credited prior to August 15, 2010 to a Non-Employee Director’s stock account pursuant to the Company’s Directors Deferred Compensation Plan.

(d) Source of Shares. The shares issuable under the Plan shall be authorized but unissued or reacquired Ordinary Shares, including Ordinary Shares repurchased by the Company or any Affiliate on the open market or otherwise.

4.	ELIGIBILITY.

The persons eligible to receive Options are the Non-Employee Directors of the Company.

5.	OPTION PROVISIONS.

Each Option shall be in such form and shall contain such terms and conditions as required by the Plan. Each Option shall contain such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the Plan, as the Board shall deem appropriate. Each Option shall include (through incorporation of provisions hereof by reference in the Option or otherwise) the substance of each of the following provisions:

(a) Term. No Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date it was granted.

(b) Exercise Price. The exercise price of each Option shall be one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of the Ordinary Shares subject to the Option on the date the Option is granted, provided that in all cases the exercise price is not less than the nominal value of an Ordinary Share.

(c) Consideration. The purchase price of Ordinary Shares acquired pursuant to an Option may be paid, to the extent permitted by applicable law, in any combination of the following; provided, however, that where Ordinary Shares are issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option the nominal value of each newly issued Ordinary Share is fully paid up: (i) cash or check, (ii) delivery to the Company (either by actual delivery or attestation) of Ordinary Shares, or (iii) to the extent permitted by law, pursuant to a program developed under Regulation T as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board that, prior to the issuance of Ordinary Shares, results in either the receipt of cash (or check) by the Company or the receipt of irrevocable instructions to pay the aggregate exercise price to the Company from the sales proceeds.

(d) Transferability. Except as otherwise provided for in this Section 5(d), an Option shall not be transferable except by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and shall be exercisable only by the Optionholder during the life of the Optionholder. However, an Option may be transferred for no consideration upon written consent of the Board if (i) at the time of transfer, a Form S-8 registration statement under the Securities Act is available for the issuance of Ordinary Shares by the Company upon the exercise of such transferred Option, or (ii) the transfer is to the Optionholder’s employer at the time of transfer or an affiliate of the Optionholder’s employer at the time of transfer. Any such transfer is subject to such limits as the Board may establish, and subject to the transferee agreeing to remain subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to the Option prior to such transfer. The forgoing right to transfer the Option shall apply to the right to consent to amendments to the Option Agreement for such Option. In addition, until the Optionholder transfers the Option, an Optionholder may, by delivering written notice to the Company, in a form provided by or otherwise satisfactory to the Company, designate a third party who, in the event of the death of the Optionholder, shall thereafter be entitled to exercise the Option.

(e) Vesting. The total number of Ordinary Shares subject to an Option may vest and therefore become exercisable in periodic installments that may or may not be equal. The Option may be subject to such other terms and conditions on the time or times when it may or may not be exercised as the Board may deem appropriate. The vesting provisions of individual Options may vary. The provisions of this Section 5(e) are subject to any Option provisions governing the minimum number of Ordinary Shares as to which an Option may be exercised.

(f) Early Exercise. The Option may, but need not, include a provision whereby the Optionholder may elect at any time before the Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates to exercise the Option as to any part or all of the Ordinary Shares subject to the Option prior to the full vesting of the Option. Any unvested Ordinary Shares so purchased may be subject to a repurchase option in favor of the Company or any Affiliate or to any other restriction the Board determines to be appropriate. The Company or Affiliate will not exercise its repurchase option until at least six (6) months (or such longer or shorter period of time required to avoid classification of the Option as a liability for financial accounting purposes) have elapsed following exercise of the Option unless the Board otherwise specifically provides in the Option.

(g) Termination of Continuous Service. In the event that an Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates (other than upon the Optionholder’s death or Disability or upon a Change in Control), the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date of termination of Continuous Service), but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date three (3) months following the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service, or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after termination of Continuous Service, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein or in the Option Agreement (as applicable), the Option shall terminate.

(h) Extension of Termination Date. If the exercise of the Option following the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service (other than upon the Optionholder’s death or Disability or upon a Change in Control) would be prohibited at any time solely because the issuance of Ordinary Shares would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act,

then the Option shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the expiration of a period of three (3) months after the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service during which the exercise of the Option would not be in violation of such registration requirements, or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement.

(i) Disability of Optionholder. In the event that an Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder’s Disability, the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder was entitled to exercise it as of the date of termination of Continuous Service), but only within such period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date twelve (12) months following such termination of Continuous Service, or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after termination, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein or in the Option Agreement, the Option shall terminate.

(j) Death of Optionholder. In the event that (i) an Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates as a result of the Optionholder’s death, or (ii) the Optionholder dies within the three (3)-month period after the termination of the Optionholder’s Continuous Service for a reason other than death, then the Option may be exercised (to the extent the Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date of death) by the Optionholder’s estate, by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, or by a person designated to exercise the Option upon the Optionholder’s death, but only within the period ending on the earlier of (i) the date eighteen (18) months following the date of death, or (ii) the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after the Optionholder’s death, the Option is not exercised within the time specified herein, the Option shall terminate.

(k) Termination Upon Change in Control. In the event that an Optionholder’s Continuous Service terminates as of, or within twelve (12) months following a Change in Control, the Optionholder may exercise his or her Option (to the extent that the Optionholder was entitled to exercise such Option as of the date of termination of Continuous Service) within such period of time ending on the earlier of (i) the date twelve (12) months following the effective date of the Change in Control, or (ii) the expiration of the term of the Option as set forth in the Option Agreement. If, after termination of Continuous Service, the Optionholder does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein or in the Option Agreement (as applicable), the Option shall terminate.

6.	COVENANTS OF THE COMPANY

(a) Availability of Shares. During the terms of the Options, the Company shall keep available at all times the number of Ordinary Shares required to satisfy such Options.

(b) Securities Law Compliance. The Company shall seek to obtain from each regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may be required to grant Options and to issue and sell Ordinary Shares upon exercise of the Options; provided, however, that this undertaking shall not require the Company to register under the Securities Act the Plan, any Option or any Ordinary Shares issued or issuable pursuant to any such Option. If, after reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain from any such

regulatory commission or agency the authority that counsel for the Company deems necessary for the lawful issuance and sale of Ordinary Shares under the Plan, the Company shall be relieved from any liability for failure to issue and sell Ordinary Shares upon exercise of such Options unless and until such authority is obtained.

7.	MISCELLANEOUS.

(a) Use of Proceeds. Proceeds from the sale of Ordinary Shares pursuant to Options shall constitute general funds of the Company.

(b) Shareholder Rights. No Optionholder shall be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, any Ordinary Shares subject to such Option unless and until such Optionholder has satisfied all requirements for exercise of the Option pursuant to its terms.

(c) No Service Rights. Nothing in the Plan, any instrument executed, or Option granted pursuant thereto shall confer upon any Optionholder any right to continue to serve the Company as a Non-Employee Director or shall affect the right of the Company or an Affiliate to terminate the service of a Director pursuant to the Bylaws of the Company or an Affiliate, and any applicable provisions of the corporate law of the state in which the Company or the Affiliate is incorporated, as the case may be.

(d) Investment Assurances. The Company may require an Optionholder, as a condition of exercising or acquiring Ordinary Shares under any Option, (i) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company as to the Optionholder’s knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and/or to employ a purchaser representative reasonably satisfactory to the Company who is knowledgeable and experienced in financial and business matters and that he or she is capable of evaluating, alone or together with the purchaser representative, the merits and risks of exercising the Option; and (ii) to give written assurances satisfactory to the Company stating that the Optionholder is acquiring the Ordinary Shares subject to the Option for the Optionholder’s own account and not with any present intention of selling or otherwise distributing the Ordinary Shares. The foregoing requirements, and any assurances given pursuant to such requirements, shall be inoperative if (i) the issuance of the Ordinary Shares upon the exercise or acquisition of Ordinary Shares under the Option has been registered under a then currently effective registration statement under the Securities Act, or (ii) as to any particular requirement, a determination is made by counsel for the Company that such requirement need not be met in the circumstances under the then applicable securities laws. The Company may, upon advice of counsel to the Company, place legends on share certificates issued under the Plan as such counsel deems necessary or appropriate in order to comply with applicable securities laws, including, but not limited to, legends restricting the transfer of the Ordinary Shares.

(e) Withholding Obligations. The Optionholder may satisfy any federal, state, local or foreign tax withholding obligation relating to the exercise or acquisition of Ordinary Shares under an Option by any of the following means (in addition to the Company’s right to withhold from any compensation paid to the Optionholder by the Company) or by a combination of such means: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii) authorizing the Company to withhold Ordinary Shares

from the Ordinary Shares otherwise issuable to the Optionholder as a result of the exercise or acquisition of Ordinary Shares under the Option; provided, however, that no Ordinary Shares are withheld with a value exceeding the minimum amount of tax required to be withheld by law; or (iii) delivering to the Company owned and unencumbered Ordinary Shares.

(f) Electronic Delivery. Any reference herein to a “written” agreement or document shall include any agreement or document delivered electronically or posted on the Company’s intranet.

8.	ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN ORDINARY SHARES; CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS.

(a) Capitalization Adjustments. In the event of a Capitalization Adjustment, the Board shall proportionately and appropriately adjust: (i) the class(es) and maximum number of securities subject to the Plan pursuant to Section 3(a), (ii) the class(es) and maximum number of securities by which the share reserve is to increase automatically each year pursuant to Section 3(a), and (iii) the class(es) and number of securities and price per Ordinary Share subject to outstanding Options. The Board shall make such adjustments, and its determination shall be final, binding and conclusive.

(b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, all outstanding Options shall terminate immediately prior to the completion of such dissolution or liquidation.

(c) Corporate Transaction.

(i) Options May Be Assumed. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation (or the surviving or acquiring corporation’s parent company) may assume or continue any or all Options outstanding under the Plan or may substitute similar stock options for Options outstanding under the Plan (including but not limited to, options to acquire the same consideration paid to the shareholders of the Company pursuant to the Corporate Transaction), and any reacquisition or repurchase rights held by the Company or any Affiliate in respect of Ordinary Shares issued pursuant to Options may be assigned by the Company to the successor of the Company (or the successor’s parent company, if any), in connection with such Corporate Transaction. A surviving corporation or acquiring corporation may choose to assume or continue only a portion of an Option or substitute a similar option for only a portion of an Option.

(ii) Options Held by Active Optionholders. In the event of a Corporate Transaction in which the surviving corporation or acquiring corporation (or its parent company) does not assume or continue such outstanding Options or substitute similar stock options for such outstanding Options, then with respect to Options that have not been assumed, continued or substituted and that are held by Optionholders whose Continuous Service has not terminated prior to the effective time of the Corporate Transaction (referred to as the “Active Optionholders”), the vesting of such Options (and, if applicable, the time at which such Options may be exercised) shall (contingent upon the effectiveness of the Corporate Transaction) be accelerated in full to a date prior to the effective time of such Corporate Transaction as the Board shall determine (or, if the Board shall not determine such a date, to the date that is five (5) days

prior to the effective time of the Corporate Transaction), and the Options shall terminate if not exercised (if applicable) at or prior to the effective time of the Corporate Transaction, and any reacquisition or repurchase rights held by the Company or any Affiliate with respect to such Options shall lapse (contingent upon the effectiveness of the Corporate Transaction).

(iii) Options Held by Former Optionholders. In the event of a Corporate Transaction in which the surviving corporation or acquiring corporation (or its parent company) does not assume or continue such outstanding Options or substitute similar stock options for such outstanding Options, then with respect to any other Options that have not been assumed, continued or substituted and that are held by persons other than Active Optionholders, the vesting of such Options (and, if applicable, the time at which such Options may be exercised) shall not be accelerated unless otherwise provided in Section 8(d) or in a written agreement between the Company or any Affiliate and the holder of such Options, and such Options shall terminate if not exercised (if applicable) prior to the effective time of the Corporate Transaction; provided, however, that any reacquisition or repurchase rights held by the Company or any Affiliate with respect to such Options shall not terminate and may continue to be exercised notwithstanding the Corporate Transaction.

(iv) Payment for Options in Lieu of Exercise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event an Option will terminate if not exercised prior to the effective time of a Corporate Transaction, the Board may provide, in its sole discretion, that the holder of such Option may not exercise such Option but will receive a payment, in such form as may be determined by the Board, equal in value to the excess, if any, of (i) the value of the property the holder of the Option would have received upon the exercise of the Option, over (ii) the exercise price payable by the Optionholder in connection with such exercise.

(d) Change in Control. In the event that an Optionholder (i) is required to resign his or her position as a Non-Employee Director as a condition of a Change in Control, or (ii) is removed from his or her position as a Non-Employee Director in connection with a Change in Control, the outstanding Options held by such Optionholder shall become fully vested and exercisable immediately prior to the effectiveness of such resignation or removal (and contingent upon the effectiveness of such Change in Control).

(e) Parachute Payments.

(i) If the acceleration of the vesting and exercisability of Options provided for in Sections 8(c) and 8(d), together with payments and other benefits of an Optionholder, (collectively, the “Payment”) (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code, or any comparable successor provisions, and (ii) but for this Section 8(e) would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, or any comparable successor provisions (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment shall be either (1) provided to such Optionholder in full, or (2) provided to such Optionholder as to such lesser extent that would result in no portion of such Payment being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, when taking into account applicable federal, state, local and foreign income and employment taxes, the Excise Tax, and any other applicable taxes, results in the receipt by such Optionholder, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of the Payment, notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax.

(ii) Unless the Company and such Optionholder otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section 8(e) shall be made in writing in good faith by the Accountant. If a reduction in the Payment is to be made as provided above, reduction shall occur in the manner that results in the greatest economic benefit for Participant.

(iii) For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 8(e), the Accountant may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of the Code and other applicable legal authority. The Company and the Optionholder shall furnish to the Accountant such information and documents as the Accountant may reasonably request in order to make such a determination. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountant may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 8(e).

(iv) If, notwithstanding any reduction described above, the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) determines that the Optionholder is liable for the Excise Tax as a result of the Payment, then the Optionholder shall be obligated to pay back to the Company, within thirty (30) days after a final IRS determination or, in the event that the Optionholder challenges the final IRS determination, a final judicial determination, a portion of the Payment (the “Repayment Amount”). The Repayment Amount with respect to the Payment shall be the smallest such amount, if any, as shall be required to be paid to the Company so that the Optionholder’s net after-tax proceeds with respect to the Payment (after taking into account the payment of the Excise Tax and all other applicable taxes imposed on the Payment) shall be maximized. The Repayment Amount with respect to the Payment shall be zero if a Repayment Amount of more than zero would not result in the Optionholder’s net after-tax proceeds with respect to the Payment being maximized. If the Excise Tax is not eliminated pursuant to this paragraph, the Optionholder shall pay the Excise Tax.

(v) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8(e), if (i) there is a reduction in the Payment as described above, (ii) the IRS later determines that the Optionholder is liable for the Excise Tax, the payment of which would result in the maximization of the Optionholder’s net after-tax proceeds of the Payment (calculated as if the Payment had not previously been reduced), and (iii) the Optionholder pays the Excise Tax, then the Company shall pay or otherwise provide to the Optionholder that portion of the Payment that was reduced pursuant to this Section 8(e) contemporaneously or as soon as administratively possible after the Optionholder pays the Excise Tax so that the Optionholder’s net after-tax proceeds with respect to the Payment are maximized.

(vi) If the Optionholder either (i) brings any action to enforce rights pursuant to this Section 8(e), or (ii) defends any legal challenge to his or her rights under this Section 8(e), the Optionholder shall be entitled to recover attorneys’ fees and costs incurred in connection with such action, regardless of the outcome of such action; provided, however, that if such action is commenced by the Optionholder, the court finds that the action was brought in good faith.

9.	AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN AND OPTIONS.

(a) Amendment of Plan. Subject to the limitations, if any, of applicable law, the Board, at any time and from time to time, may amend the Plan. However, except as provided in

Section 8(a) relating to Capitalization Adjustments, no amendment shall be effective unless approved by the shareholders of the Company to the extent shareholder approval is necessary to satisfy applicable law.

(b) Shareholder Approval. The Board, in its sole discretion, may submit any other amendment to the Plan for shareholder approval.

(c) No Impairment of Rights. Rights under any Option granted before amendment of the Plan shall not be impaired by any amendment of the Plan unless (i) the Company requests the consent of the affected Optionholder, and (ii) such Optionholder consents in writing.

(d) Amendment of Options. The Board, at any time and from time to time, may amend the terms of any one or more Options; provided, however, that the rights under any Option shall not be impaired by any such amendment unless (i) the Company requests the consent of the Optionholder, and (ii) the Optionholder consents in writing.

10.

TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF THE PLAN.

(a) Plan Term. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. No Options may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.

(b) No Impairment of Rights. Suspension or termination of the Plan shall not impair rights and obligations under any Option granted while the Plan is in effect except with the written consent of the Optionholder.

11.

EFFECTIVE DATE OF PLAN.

The Plan became effective on May 31, 2007.

12.

CHOICE OF LAW.

As used in the Plan, the following definitions shall apply to the capitalized terms indicated below:

(a) “Accountant” means the independent public accountants of the Company.

(b) “Affiliate” means, at the time of determination, any “parent” or “subsidiary” of the Company as such terms are defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as a Capitalization Adjustment.

(e) “Change in Control” means the occurrence, in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions, of any one or more of the following events:

(i) any Exchange Act Person becomes the Owner, directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities other than by virtue of a merger, consolidation or similar transaction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Change in Control shall not be deemed to occur (A) on account of the acquisition of securities of the Company by an investor, any affiliate thereof or any other Exchange Act Person from the Company in a transaction or series of related transactions the primary purpose of which is to obtain financing for the Company through the issuance of equity securities or (B) solely because the level of Ownership held by any Exchange Act Person (the “Subject Person”) exceeds the designated percentage threshold of the outstanding voting securities as a result of a repurchase or other acquisition of voting securities by the Company or any Affiliate reducing the number of shares outstanding, provided that if a Change in Control would occur (but for the operation of this sentence) as a result of the acquisition of voting securities by the Company or any Affiliate, and after such share acquisition, the Subject Person becomes the Owner of any additional voting securities that, assuming the repurchase or other acquisition had not occurred, increases the percentage of the then outstanding voting securities Owned by the Subject Person over the designated percentage threshold, then a Change in Control shall be deemed to occur;

(ii) there is consummated a merger, consolidation or similar transaction involving (directly or indirectly) the Company and, immediately after the consummation of such merger, consolidation or similar transaction, the shareholders of the Company immediately prior thereto do not Own, directly or indirectly, either (A) outstanding voting securities representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined outstanding voting power of the surviving Entity in such merger, consolidation or similar transaction or (B) more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined outstanding voting power of the parent of the surviving Entity in such merger, consolidation or similar transaction, in each case in substantially the same proportions as their Ownership of the outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such transaction;

11.

(iii) the shareholders of the Company approve or the Board approves a plan of complete dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or a complete dissolution or liquidation of the Company shall otherwise occur, except for a liquidation into a parent corporation;

(iv) there is consummated a sale, lease, exclusive license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, other than a sale, lease, license or other disposition of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries to an Entity, more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power of the voting securities of which are Owned by shareholders of the Company in substantially the same proportions as their Ownership of the outstanding voting securities of the Company immediately prior to such sale, lease, license or other disposition; or

(v) individuals who, on the date the Plan is adopted by the Board, are members of the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members of the Board; provided, however, that if the appointment or election (or nomination for election) of any new Board member was approved or recommended by a majority vote of the members of the Incumbent Board then still in office, such new member shall, for purposes of the Plan, be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board.

For the avoidance of doubt, any one or more of the above events may be effected pursuant to (A) a compromise or arrangement sanctioned by the court under section 201 of the Companies Act 1963 of the Republic of Ireland or (B) section 204 of the Companies Act 1963 of the Republic of Ireland.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Plan, the term Change in Control shall not include (1) a sale of assets, merger or other transaction effected exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of the Company or (2) unless the Board determines otherwise, the creation of a new holding company where the Company becomes a wholly-owned subsidiary of that holding company and the holding company will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s issued shares immediately before such transaction, in which case Options granted hereunder will be treated as if they were in all respects awards over shares in the holding company but so that (i) the new award shall vest in the same manner as the Option, (ii) the total market value of the new shares subject to the new award shall, immediately after such reorganization, be equal to the total market value of the Ordinary Shares comprised in the Option immediately prior to such reorganization, (iii) the new shares shall have the same rights attaching thereto as the Ordinary Shares, and (iv) the new award shall be deemed to have been granted as at the date of grant of Option.

Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of the Plan, the definition of Change in Control (or any analogous term) in an individual written agreement between the Company or any Affiliate and the Optionholder shall supersede the foregoing definition with respect to Options subject to such agreement; provided, however, that if no definition of Change in Control or any analogous term is set forth in such an individual written agreement, the foregoing definition shall apply.

12.

The Board may, in its sole discretion and without an Optionholder’s consent, amend the definition of “Change in Control” to conform to the definition of “Change in Control” under Section 409A of the Code, and the regulations thereunder.

(f) “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

(g) “Company” means Jazz Pharmaceuticals plc, a company formed under the laws of Ireland.

(h) “Consultant” means any person, including an advisor, who is (i) engaged by the Company or an Affiliate to render consulting or advisory services and is compensated for such services, or (ii) serving as a member of the Board of Directors of an Affiliate and is compensated for such services. However, service solely as a Director, or payment of a fee for such service, shall not cause a Director to be considered a “Consultant” for purposes of the Plan.

(i) “Continuous Service” means that the Optionholder’s service with the Company or an Affiliate, whether as an Employee, Director or Consultant, is not interrupted or terminated. A change in the capacity in which the Optionholder renders service to the Company or an Affiliate as an Employee, Consultant or Director or a change in the entity for which the Optionholder renders such service, provided that there is no interruption or termination of the Optionholder’s service with the Company or an Affiliate, shall not terminate an Optionholder’s Continuous Service; provided, however, if the corporation for which an Optionholder is rendering service ceases to qualify as an Affiliate, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, such Optionholder’s Continuous Service shall be considered to have terminated on the date such corporation ceases to qualify as an Affiliate. For example, a change in status from a Non-Employee Director of the Company to a Consultant of an Affiliate or an Employee of the Company will not constitute an interruption of Continuous Service. To the extent permitted by law, the Board or the chief executive officer of the Company, in that party’s sole discretion, may determine whether Continuous Service shall be considered interrupted in the case of any leave of absence approved by that party, including sick leave, military leave or any other personal leave. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a leave of absence shall be treated as Continuous Service for purposes of vesting in an Option only to such extent as may be provided in the Company’s leave of absence policy or in the written terms of the Optionholder’s leave of absence.

(j) “Corporate Transaction” means the consummation, in a single transaction or in a series of related transactions, of any one or more of the following events:
