PRELIMINARY PROXY MATERIALS—SUBJECT TO COMPLETION

[                        ], 2020

Dear Nabriva Therapeutics plc Shareholder:

        You are cordially invited to our Annual General Meeting of Shareholders on Wednesday, July 29, 2020, beginning at 5:00 p.m. Irish time (12:00 p.m., Eastern Time), at 25-28 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland. The enclosed notice of Annual General Meeting of Shareholders sets forth the proposals that will be presented at the meeting, which are described in more detail in the enclosed proxy statement.

        We are monitoring the emerging public health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The health and well-being of our shareholders, employees and directors are paramount. We are monitoring guidance issued by the Irish Health Service Executive, the Irish government, the U.S. Center for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization. Based on latest available public health guidance, we expect that the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders will proceed under very constrained circumstances given current restrictions on public gatherings.

        Shareholder contributions at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders are valued, however, shareholders are strongly encouraged to vote their shares by proxy as the preferred means of fully and safely exercising their rights. Personal attendance at the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders may present a health risk to shareholders and others. In particular, we advise that shareholders who are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms or anyone who has been in contact with any person experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms should not attend the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in person.

        We may take additional procedures or limitations on meeting attendees, including limiting seating, requiring health screenings and other reasonable or required measures in order to enter the building. There is also the possibility that we may change the venue or delay, postpone or adjourn the Annual General Meeting. In the event that such a change is necessitated due to public health recommendations regarding containment of COVID-19, we will communicate this to shareholders with as much notice as possible by press release (which we will also file with the SEC). We recommend that shareholders keep up-to-date with the latest public health guidance regarding travel, self-isolation and health and safety precautions. If you have any questions or require any assistance with voting your shares, please contact our proxy solicitor, Georgeson LLC, by telephone at 866-821-2550.

        Our board of directors recommends that you vote "FOR" Proposals 1, 2, 3 and 4 as set forth in the proxy statement.

        Thank you for your ongoing support and continued interest in Nabriva Therapeutics.

Very truly yours,

Daniel Burgess

Chairman of the Board of Directors

This proxy statement, our 2019 annual report to
shareholders and our Irish Statutory Financial Statements for the year
ended December 31, 2019 are available at www.envisionreports.com/nbrv
for viewing, downloading and printing.

A copy of the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, except for exhibits, and our Irish Statutory Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2019 will be furnished without charge to any shareholder upon written or oral request to the Company at 25-28 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland, Attention: Secretary, Telephone: (610) 816-6640.

Information about the AGM and Voting

        This proxy statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the board of directors (the "board of directors" or the "board") of Nabriva Therapeutics plc (the "Company," "Nabriva," "we" or "us") for use at the 2020 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders (the "AGM") to be held on July 29, 2020, beginning at 5:00 p.m., Irish time (12:00 p.m., Eastern Time), at 25-28 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof. We are monitoring the emerging public health impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We may take additional procedures or limitations on meeting attendees, including limiting seating, requiring health screenings and other reasonable or required measures in order to enter the building. There is also the possibility that we may change the venue or delay, postpone or adjourn the Annual General Meeting. In the event that such a change is necessitated due to public health recommendations regarding containment of COVID-19, we will communicate this to shareholders with as much notice as possible by press release (which we will also file with the SEC). On June 5, 2020, the record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to vote at the AGM, there were issued, outstanding and entitled to vote an aggregate of 142,965,483 of our ordinary shares, nominal value $0.01 per share ("ordinary shares"). Each ordinary share entitles the record holder thereof to one vote on each of the matters to be voted on at the AGM.

        Throughout this proxy statement, unless the context requires otherwise, all references to Nabriva Therapeutics plc, its board of directors, board committees, executive officers and directors, to its compensation and other policies, programs and reports on or prior to June 23, 2017 (the effective date of our Redomiciliation from Austria to Ireland), refer to those of our predecessor, Nabriva Therapeutics AG, together with its subsidiaries, which we refer to as Nabriva Austria.

        Your vote is important no matter how many shares you own.    Please take the time to vote. Take a moment to read the instructions below. Choose the way to vote that is easiest and most convenient for you, and cast your vote as soon as possible.

1

        If you are the "record holder" of your shares, meaning that you own your shares in your own name and not through a bank, broker or other nominee, you may vote in one of four ways:

(1)

You may vote over the Internet.    You may vote your shares by following the "Vote by Internet" instructions on the enclosed proxy card. If you vote by Internet, your use of that system, and specifically the entry of your pin number/other unique identifier, will be deemed to constitute your appointment, in writing and under hand, and for all purposes of the Irish Companies Act of 2014, of each of Theodore Schroeder, Gary Sender and Robert Crotty, and/or each of their duly appointed substitutes if applicable, as your proxy to vote your shares on your behalf in accordance with your Internet instructions. The internet voting facilities for eligible shareholders of record will close at 6:00 a.m., Irish time (1:00 a.m., Eastern Time), on the day of the AGM.



(2)

You may vote by telephone.    You may vote your shares by following the "Vote by Phone" instructions on the enclosed proxy card. If you vote by telephone, you do not need to vote over the Internet or complete and mail your proxy card. If you vote by telephone, your use of that telephone system, and specifically the entry of your pin number/other unique identifier, will be deemed to constitute your appointment, in writing and under hand, and for all purposes of the Irish Companies Act of 2014, of each of Theodore Schroeder, Gary Sender and Robert Crotty, and/or each of their duly appointed substitutes if applicable, as your proxy to vote your shares on your behalf in accordance with your telephone instructions. The telephone voting facilities for eligible shareholders of record will close at 6:00 a.m., Irish time (1:00 a.m., Eastern Time), on the day of the AGM.



(3)

You may vote by mail.    You may vote by completing, dating and signing the proxy card delivered with this proxy statement and promptly mailing it in the enclosed postage-paid envelope. If you vote by mail, you do not need to vote over the Internet or by telephone. We must receive the completed proxy card by 12:00 p.m., Irish time (7:00 a.m., Eastern Time), on the day of the AGM.



(4)

You may vote in person.    If you attend the AGM, you may vote by delivering your completed proxy card in person or you may vote by completing a ballot at the AGM. Ballots will be available at the AGM.

All proxies that are executed and delivered by mail or in person, or are otherwise submitted over the Internet or by telephone will be voted on the matters set forth in the accompanying Notice of Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in accordance with the shareholders' instructions. However, if no choice is specified on a proxy as to one or more of the proposals, the proxy will be voted in accordance with the board of directors' recommendations on such proposals as set forth in this proxy statement. All proxies will be forwarded to the Company's registered office electronically.

        After you have submitted a proxy, you may still change your vote and revoke your proxy prior to the AGM by doing any one of the following things:

•

submitting a new proxy by following the "Vote by Internet" or "Vote by Phone" instructions on the enclosed proxy card at a date later than your previous vote but prior to the voting deadline (which is 6:00 a.m., Irish time (1:00 a.m., Eastern Time), on the day of the AGM);

•

signing another proxy card and either arranging for delivery of that proxy card by mail by 12:00 p.m., Irish time (7:00 a.m., Eastern Time), on the day of the AGM, or by delivering that signed proxy card in person at the AGM;

•

giving our Secretary a written notice before or at the AGM that you want to revoke your proxy; or

•

voting in person at the AGM.

2

        Your attendance at the AGM alone will not revoke your proxy.

        If the shares you own are held in "street name" by a bank, broker or other nominee record holder, which we collectively refer to in this proxy statement as "brokerage firms," your brokerage firm, as the record holder of your shares, is required to vote your shares according to your instructions. To vote your shares, you will need to follow the directions your brokerage firm provides you. Many brokerage firms also offer the option of voting over the Internet or by telephone, instructions for which, if available, would be provided by your brokerage firm on the voting instruction form that it delivers to you. Because most brokerage firms are member organizations of the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, the rules of the NYSE will likely govern how your brokerage firm would be permitted to vote your shares in the absence of instruction from you. Under the current rules of the NYSE, if you do not give instructions to your brokerage firm, it will still be able to vote your shares with respect to certain "discretionary" items, but will not be allowed to vote your shares with respect to certain "non-discretionary" items. The ratification of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm and the authorization of the board of directors, acting through the audit committee, to set the independent registered public accounting firm's remuneration (Proposal 2) is a discretionary item under the NYSE rules, and your brokerage firm will be able to vote on that item even if it does not receive instructions from you, so long as it holds your shares in its name. The election of the board of directors (Proposal 1), approval of the adoption of the Company's 2020 Share Incentive Plan, as amended (Proposal 3) and approval, subject to and conditional upon our board of directors determining, in its sole discretion, that a reverse stock split is necessary for the Company to comply with the Bid Price Rule (as defined below under "Proposal 4: To Approve a Reverse Stock Split—Background to and Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split Proposal"), of the consolidation of every 10 ordinary shares of $0.01 each in the authorized but unissued and in the authorized and issued share capital of the Company into 1 ordinary share of $0.10 each and the subsequent reduction in the nominal value of the ordinary shares from $0.10 each to $0.01 each (the "Reverse Stock Split Proposal") (Proposal 4) are "non-discretionary" items, meaning that if you do not instruct your brokerage firm on how to vote with respect to Proposals 1, 3, or 4, your brokerage firm will not vote with respect to that proposal and your shares will be counted as "broker non-votes." "Broker non-votes" are shares that are held in "street name" by a brokerage firm that indicates on its proxy that it does not have or did not exercise discretionary authority to vote on a particular matter.

        If your shares are held in street name, you must bring an account statement from your brokerage firm showing that you are the beneficial owner of the shares as of the record date (June 5, 2020) to be admitted to the AGM. To be able to vote your shares held in street name at the AGM, you will need to obtain a proxy card from the holder of record.

Votes Required

        The holders of a majority of our ordinary shares issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the AGM will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the AGM. Ordinary shares represented in person or by proxy (including "broker non-votes" (as described above) and shares which abstain or do not vote with respect to one or more of the matters presented for shareholder approval) will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the AGM. The following votes are required for approval of the proposals being presented at the AGM:

        Proposal 1: To Elect the Board of Directors.    The affirmative vote of the holders of ordinary shares representing a majority of the votes cast on the matter and voting affirmatively or negatively is required for the election of a director nominee.

3

        Proposal 2: To Ratify, in a Non-Binding Advisory Vote, the Selection of KPMG LLP as the Company's Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2020 and to Authorize, in a Binding Vote, the Board of Directors, Acting Through the Audit Committee, to set the Auditor's Remuneration.    The affirmative vote of the holders of ordinary shares representing a majority of the votes cast on the matter and voting affirmatively or negatively is required for the ratification of the selection of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the current fiscal year and to authorize the board of directors, acting through the audit committee, to set the auditor's remuneration.

        Proposal 3: To Approve the Adoption of the Company's 2020 Share Incentive Plan, As Amended.    The affirmative vote of the holders of ordinary shares representing a majority of the votes cast on the matter and voting affirmatively or negatively is required for the approval of the adoption of the Company's 2020 Share Incentive Plan, as amended.

        Proposal 4: To Approve a Reverse Stock Split.    The affirmative vote of the holders of ordinary shares representing a majority of the votes cast on the matter and voting affirmatively or negatively is required for the approval of the reverse stock split. The implementation of the reverse stock split is subject to and conditional upon our board of directors determining, in its sole discretion, that a reverse stock split is necessary for the Company to comply with the Bid Price Rule.

        Shares that abstain from voting as to a particular matter and shares held in "street name" by brokerage firms who indicate on their proxies that they do not have discretionary authority to vote such shares as to a particular matter will not be counted as votes in favor of such matter, and will also not be counted as shares voting on such matter. Accordingly, abstentions and "broker non-votes" will have no effect on the voting on the proposals referenced above.

Proxy Solicitor

        We have engaged the services of Georgeson LLC to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Annual General Meeting at an estimated cost of approximately $8,500, plus reimbursement of certain expenses and fees for additional services requested. Proxies may be solicited by Georgeson LLC by mail, telephone, e-mail and in person.

Daniel Burgess has served on our board of directors since June 23, 2017. Mr. Burgess was a member of the supervisory board of Nabriva Austria and served as its chairman from October 2016 until the Redomiciliation. Mr. Burgess has been a venture partner at SV Health Investors (SV) since 2014. Mr. Burgess has also served as the president and the chief executive officer of Therini Bio, Inc., a private therapeutics company, since May 2019. He was previously president and chief executive officer of Rempex Pharmaceuticals, an antibiotics company he co-founded in 2011 and that was subsequently sold to The Medicines Company (now Novartis AG) in 2013. Prior to this, Mr. Burgess was president and chief executive officer of Mpex Pharmaceuticals from 2007 until its acquisition by Aptalis Inc. (now AbbVie Inc.) in 2011. Prior to his time at Mpex, Mr. Burgess served in various senior operating roles for other biotechnology companies. In addition, he serves as a member of the boards of directors of Cidara Therapeutics, Inc., a public biotechnology company; Arbutus Biopharma Corp., a public biotechnology company; and several private healthcare companies. Mr. Burgess was a member of the board of directors of Santarus, Inc., from 2004 until its acquisition in 2014 by Salix Pharmaceuticals Inc., a publicly traded pharmaceutical company. He received his B.A. in economics from Stanford University and an M.B.A. from Harvard University. We believe Mr. Burgess is qualified to serve as a director because of his expertise and experience as an executive in the pharmaceutical industry, his service on other boards of directors and his educational background.

Theodore Schroeder has served on our board of directors and as chief executive officer since July 24, 2018. During the last 30 years, Mr. Schroeder has been focused on drug development and commercialization in both large and small pharmaceutical companies. Most recently, he served as president, chief executive officer and director of Zavante Therapeutics from June 2015 until its acquisition by Nabriva Therapeutics in July 2018. Mr. Schroeder co-founded Cadence Pharmaceuticals in 2004 and previously held leadership roles at Elan Pharmaceuticals, Dura Pharmaceuticals and earlier

5

in his career, Bristol-Myers Squibb. He currently serves on the board of Cidara Therapeutics, Otonomy and Collegium Pharmaceutical. He is a former chair of BIOCOM, the California life sciences trade association and in 2014, he was named the EY Entrepreneur of the Year for the San Diego region and was listed as a national finalist. He received a bachelor's degree in management from Rutgers University. We believe Mr. Schroeder is qualified to serve as a director because of his expertise and experience as an executive in the pharmaceutical industry, his service on other boards of directors and his educational background.

Colin Broom has served on our board of directors since June 23, 2017. Dr. Broom has served as the chief executive officer of Pulmotect, Inc., a private biotechnology company, since September 2019. Dr. Broom was previously our chief executive officer from April 12, 2017 until July 24, 2018, and the chief executive officer of Nabriva Austria from August 2014 until the Redomiciliation. Prior to joining Nabriva Austria, he served as chief scientific officer at ViroPharma Incorporated from 2004 until it was acquired by Shire plc in 2014. Dr. Broom served as vice president of clinical development and medical affairs in Europe for Amgen Inc. from 2000 to 2003 and previously held several leadership positions with Hoechst Marion Roussel (now Sanofi), SmithKline Beecham and Glaxo (now GlaxoSmithKline). Dr. Broom served as a member of the board of directors of NPS Pharmaceuticals, Inc. from 2009 until its acquisition by Shire in 2015. He is a member of the U.K. Royal College of Physicians and a fellow of the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Medicine. Dr. Broom received his B.Sc. from University College, London and M.B.B.S. from St. George's Hospital Medical School, London. We believe that Dr. Broom is qualified to serve as a director due to his extensive experience in all stages of drug development and commercialization.

Carrie Bourdow has served on our board of directors since June 23, 2017. Ms. Bourdow has been the president, the chief executive officer, and member of the board of directors of Trevena, Inc., a publicly-traded biopharmaceutical company, since October 2018. She has served in various senior positions at Trevena since May 2015. She joined Trevena as chief commercial officer and was appointed executive vice president and chief operating officer in January 2018. Prior to joining Trevena, Ms. Bourdow was vice president of marketing at Cubist Pharmaceuticals, Inc., from 2013 until its acquisition by Merck & Co., Inc. in January 2015. At Cubist, Ms. Bourdow led launch strategy, marketing, reimbursement, and operations for acute care hospital pharmaceuticals. Prior to Cubist, Ms. Bourdow served for more than 20 years at Merck & Co., Inc., where she held positions of increasing responsibility across multiple therapeutic areas. Ms. Bourdow also serves as a director of Sesen Bio, Inc., a publicly traded pharmaceutical company. Ms. Bourdow holds a B.A. degree from Hendrix College and an M.B.A. from Southern Illinois University. We believe Ms. Bourdow is qualified to serve as a director due to her extensive experience in the biopharmaceutical industry, including her experience with anti-infectives and with the commercialization of new drugs.

George H. Talbot has served on our board of directors since June 23, 2017. Dr. Talbot previously served on the supervisory board of Nabriva Austria from 2009 until the Redomiciliation. Dr. Talbot has been the principal at Talbot Advisors LLC, a biopharmaceutical company consultancy, since 2007 and prior to that, from 2000 to 2006.

Dr. Talbot also worked closely with Calixa Therapeutics, Inc. and Durata Therapeutics, Inc., prior to their acquisitions by Cubist Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and Actavis plc, respectively. He was an initial member of the Infectious Diseases Society of America's Antimicrobial Availability Task Force ("Bad Bugs, No Drugs") and recently completed a seven-year tenure as co-chair of the Foundation for the National Institutes of Health (FNIH) Biomarkers Consortium Projects for Endpoint Development in Acute Bacterial Skin and Skin Structure Infections, Community-acquired Bacterial Pneumonia, and Hospital-acquired Bacterial Pneumonia/Ventilator-associated Bacterial Pneumonia, which made evidence-based recommendations to the Food and Drug Administration for its Guidance development in these indications. Dr. Talbot received his B.A. from Wesleyan University, his M.D. from the Yale University

6

School of Medicine, and his Infectious Diseases fellowship training at the University of Pennsylvania. After serving as a faculty member of the Infectious Diseases Section at the University of Pennsylvania, he joined the anti-infectives group at Rhone-Poulenc-Rorer in 1990. We believe that Dr. Talbot is qualified to serve as a director due to his education, training and extensive experience in the biopharmaceutical industry.

Mr. Rowland previously served on the supervisory board of Nabriva Austria from January 2015 until the Redomiciliation.

Previously, he served on the board of directors at Idenix Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Vitae Pharmaceuticals, Inc., Bind Therapeutics Inc. and Aurinia Pharmaceuticals Inc. Mr. Rowland received his B.S. from Saint Joseph's University and M.B.A. from Rutgers University. We believe that Mr. Rowland is qualified to serve as a director due to his extensive experience in pharmaceutical operations and all areas of finance and accounting.

Stephen Webster has served on our board of directors since June 23, 2017. Mr. Webster previously served on the supervisory board of Nabriva Austria from October 2016 until the Redomiciliation. Mr. Webster served as the chief financial officer of Spark Therapeutics from July 2014 until its acquisition by Roche Holdings, Inc. in December 2019.

He also was a co-founder and served as president and chief executive officer of Neuronyx, Inc.

Mr. Webster is currently a member of the board of directors of Viking Therapeutics, Inc. and NextCure, Inc. He holds an A.B. in economics from Dartmouth College and an M.B.A. from the University of Pennsylvania. We believe that Mr. Webster is qualified to serve as a director due to his extensive experience in the biopharmaceutical industry, particularly his service as a chief financial officer and in other executive management roles.

Board Composition

        Our articles of association provide that the number of directors on our board will be not less than two and not more than twelve, with the exact number determined by the board. Our board of directors is currently authorized for eight members. Our directors hold office for a term continuing until the next annual general meeting of shareholders or until the earlier of their resignation or removal.

        Our articles of association provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of our board of directors. Under the Irish Companies Act of 2014, and notwithstanding anything contained in our articles of association or in any agreement between us and a director, our shareholders may, by an ordinary resolution, remove a director from office before the expiration of his

7

or her term at a meeting held on no less than 28 days' notice and at which the director is entitled to be heard. Our articles of association also provide that the office of a director will be vacated in certain circumstances including if the director is restricted or disqualified to act as a director under the Irish Companies Act of 2014, resigns his or her office by notice in writing, or is requested to resign in writing by not less than a majority of the other directors. Our board of directors may fill any vacancy occurring on the board of directors. If the board of directors fills a vacancy, the director shall hold office until the next election of directors and until his or her successor shall be elected.

Board Determination of Independence

        Applicable Nasdaq rules require a majority of a listed company's board of directors to be comprised of independent directors within one year of listing. In addition, the Nasdaq rules require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company's audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees be independent under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act. Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act, and compensation committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act. Under applicable Nasdaq rules, a director will only qualify as an "independent director" if, in the opinion of the listed company's board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. To be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors, or any other board committee, accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries or otherwise be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries. In order to be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10C-1, the board must consider, for each member of a compensation committee of a listed company, all factors specifically relevant to determining whether a director has a relationship to such company which is material to that director's ability to be independent from management in connection with the duties of a compensation committee member, including, but not limited to: (1) the source of compensation of the director, including any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee paid by such company to the director; and (2) whether the director is affiliated with the company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates.

        In April 2020, our board of directors undertook a review of the independence of each director. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our board has determined that each of our directors, with the exception of Colin Broom and Theodore Schroeder, is an "independent director" as defined under applicable Nasdaq rules, including, in the case of all the members of our audit committee, the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act, and in the case of all the members of our compensation committee, the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10C-1 under the Exchange Act. In making such determination, our board considered the relationships that each such director has with us, including each of the transactions described below in "—Board Policies—Related Person Transactions—Certain Relationships and Related Transactions," and all other facts and circumstances that our board deemed relevant in making such independence determinations. Mr. Schroeder is not an independent director because he is our chief executive officer, and Dr. Broom is not an independent director because he was employed as our chief executive officer during the past three years.

How Our Board Is Organized

Board Leadership Structure

        Mr. Burgess serves as chairman of our board of directors and Mr. Schroeder serves as our chief executive officer. We believe that having an independent director serve as our chairman allows our chief executive officer to focus on our business, while allowing the chairman of the board to fulfill a fundamental leadership role of providing advice to and independent oversight of our board.

        Our chief executive officer devotes a substantial amount of time and effort to his position. The chairman of the board role requires significant additional commitment, particularly as the board's oversight responsibilities continue to grow. Our board is committed to practicing good corporate governance and believes that having an independent non-executive director serving as chairman is the appropriate leadership structure for the company. The nominating and corporate governance committee periodically assesses the board's leadership structure and whether the board's leadership structure is appropriate given the specific characteristics or circumstances of the company at that time.

Board Committees

        Our board of directors has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee, each of which operates under a charter that has been approved by our board. Copies of the committee charters are posted under the heading "Corporate Governance" on the Investor section of our website, which is located at http://investors.nabriva.com.

Audit Committee

        Our audit committee consists of Daniel Burgess, Charles A. Rowland, Jr. and Stephen Webster, and Stephen Webster is the chair of the audit committee. The audit committee oversees our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of our consolidated financial statements. The audit committee is responsible for, among other things:

•

making recommendations to our board regarding the ratification by the annual general meeting of shareholders of our independent auditors;

•

overseeing the work of the independent auditors, including resolving disagreements between management and the independent auditors relating to financial reporting;

•

pre-approving all audit and non-audit services permitted to be performed by the independent auditors;

•

reviewing the independence and quality control procedures of the independent auditors;

•

reviewing and approving all proposed related-party transactions;

•

discussing the annual audited consolidated and statutory financial statements with management;

•

annually reviewing and reassessing the adequacy of our audit committee charter;

•

meeting separately with the independent auditors to discuss critical accounting policies, recommendations on internal controls, the auditor's engagement letter and independence letter and other material written communications between the independent auditors and the management; and

•

attending to such other matters as are specifically delegated to our audit committee by our board from time to time.

Our board of directors has determined that Charles A. Rowland, Jr. is an "audit committee financial expert" as defined in the applicable SEC rules.

9

        Our audit committee met five times in 2019.

Compensation Committee

        Our compensation committee consists of Carrie Bourdow and Charles A. Rowland, Jr., and Charles A. Rowland, Jr. is the chair of the compensation committee. The compensation committee assists the board in reviewing and approving or recommending our compensation structure, including all forms of compensation relating to our directors and management. The compensation committee is responsible for, among other things:

•

reviewing and making recommendations to the board with respect to compensation of our board of directors and management;

•

reviewing and approving the compensation, including equity compensation, change-of-control benefits and severance arrangements, of our chief executive officer, chief financial officer and such other members of our management as it deems appropriate;

•

overseeing the evaluation of our management;

•

reviewing periodically and making recommendations to our board with respect to any incentive compensation and equity plans, programs or similar arrangements;

•

exercising the rights of our board under any equity plans, except for the right to amend any such plans unless otherwise expressly authorized to do so; and

•

attending to such other matters as are specifically delegated to our compensation committee by our board from time to time.

        Our compensation committee met eight times in 2019.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

        Our nominating and corporate governance committee consists of Daniel Burgess, George H. Talbot and Stephen Webster, and Daniel Burgess is the chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee. The nominating and corporate governance committee assists the board in selecting individuals qualified to become our directors and in determining the composition of the board and its committees. The nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for, among other things:

•

recommending to the board persons to be nominated for election or re-election to the board at any meeting of shareholders;

•

overseeing the board's annual review of its own performance and the performance of its committees; and

•

developing and recommending to the board a set of corporate governance guidelines.

        Our nominating and corporate governance committee met five times in 2019.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

        For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019, the members of our compensation committee were Carrie Bourdow, Mark Corrigan and Charles Rowland, Jr. No member of our compensation committee is, or has been, an officer or employee of ours or any subsidiary of ours. None of our executive officers served as a director or a member of a compensation committee (or other committee serving an equivalent function) of any other entity that had one or more executive officers serving as a director or member of our compensation committee during the year ended December 31, 2019.

10

Board Meetings and Attendance

        Our board of directors met nine times in 2019. During 2019, each director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of the number of board meetings held during his or her term, and of the meetings held by all committees of the board on which he or she then served.

        Our directors are expected to attend our annual general meeting of shareholders. In July 2019, all of our then-current directors attended the Annual General Meeting of Shareholders in person.

Board Processes

Oversight of Risk

        Our board of directors oversees our risk management processes directly and through its committees. Our management is responsible for risk management on a day-to-day basis. The role of our board and its committees is to oversee the risk management activities of management. They fulfill this duty by discussing with management the policies and practices utilized by management in assessing and managing risks and providing input on those policies and practices. In general, our board oversees risk management activities relating to business strategy, acquisitions, capital raising and allocation, organizational structure and certain operational risks; our audit committee oversees risk management activities related to financial controls and legal and compliance risks; our nominating and corporate governance committee oversees risk management activities relating to board composition; and our compensation committee oversees risk management activities relating to our compensation policies and practices and management succession planning. Each committee reports to the full board on a regular basis, including reports with respect to the committee's risk oversight activities as appropriate. In addition, since risk issues often overlap, committees from time to time request that the full board discuss such risks.

Director Nomination Process

        The process followed by our nominating and corporate governance committee to identify and evaluate director candidates may include requests to directors and others for recommendations, evaluation of the performance on our board and its committees of any existing directors being considered for nomination, consideration of biographical information and background material relating to potential candidates and, particularly in the case of potential candidates who are not then serving on our board, interviews of selected candidates by members of the committee and our board.

        In considering whether to recommend any candidate for inclusion in our board's slate of recommended director nominees, our nominating and corporate governance committee applies the criteria set forth in our corporate governance guidelines described below under "—Corporate Governance Guidelines". Consistent with these criteria, our nominating and corporate governance committee expects every nominee to have the following attributes or characteristics, among others: integrity, honesty, adherence to high ethical standards, business acumen, good judgment and a commitment to understand our business and industry.

        The nominating and corporate governance committee did not engage a search firm to identify and evaluate potential director candidates in 2019.

        All of the director nominees are currently members of our board of directors. The nominee biographies under "—Board of Directors" indicate the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills of each of our current directors that led our nominating and corporate governance committee and our board to conclude such director should continue to serve as one of our directors. Our nominating and corporate governance committee and our board believe that each of the nominees has the individual attributes and characteristics required of each of our directors, and that the nominees as a group possess the skill sets and specific experience desired for our board.

11

        Our nominating and corporate governance committee considers the value of diversity when selecting nominees, and believes that our board, taken as a whole, should embody a diverse set of skills, experiences and backgrounds. The committee does not make any particular weighting of diversity or any other characteristic in evaluating nominees and directors.

        Shareholders may recommend individuals for consideration as potential director candidates by submitting their names, together with appropriate biographical information and background materials, and information with respect to the shareholder or group of shareholders making the recommendation, including the number of ordinary shares owned by such shareholder or group of shareholders, to us at Nabriva Therapeutics plc, 25-28 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland, Attention: Secretary. The specific requirements for the information that is required to be provided for such recommendations to be considered are specified in our articles of association and must be received by us no later than the date referenced below in "Other Matters—Deadline for Submission of Shareholder Proposals for 2021 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders." Assuming appropriate biographical and background material has been provided on a timely basis, the nominating and corporate governance committee will evaluate shareholder-recommended candidates by following substantially the same process, and applying substantially the same criteria, as it follows for candidates submitted by others.

Communications with Our Directors

        Our board of directors will give appropriate attention to written communications that are submitted by shareholders and will respond if and as appropriate. The chairman of the board, or otherwise the chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee, is primarily responsible for monitoring communications from shareholders and other interested parties and provides copies or summaries of such communications to the other directors as he considers appropriate. Shareholders who wish to communicate with our board of directors may do so by addressing such communications to Board of Directors, c/o Secretary, Nabriva Therapeutics plc, 25-28 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland. Communications will be forwarded to other directors if they relate to substantive matters that the chairman of the board or chair of the nominating and corporate governance committee considers appropriate for attention by the other directors.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

        Our board of directors has adopted corporate governance guidelines to assist in the exercise of its duties and responsibilities and to serve the best interests of the company and its shareholders. The guidelines provide that:

•

our board's principal responsibility is to oversee the management of the company;

•

a majority of the directors must be independent directors;

•

the independent directors meet in executive session at least twice a year;

•

directors have full and free access to management and, as necessary, independent advisors;

•

new directors participate in an orientation program; and

•

our board will conduct a periodic self-evaluation to determine whether it and its committees are functioning effectively.

        A copy of the corporate governance guidelines is posted under the heading "Corporate Governance" on the Investor Relations section of our website, which is located at http://investors.nabriva.com.

Board Policies

Related Person Transactions

        Our board of directors has adopted written policies and procedures for the review of any transaction, arrangement or relationship in which the company is a participant, the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 and one percent of the average of the our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years and one of our executive officers, directors, director nominees or 5% shareholders, or their immediate family members, each of whom we refer to as a "related person," has a direct or indirect material interest.

        If a related person proposes to enter into such a transaction, arrangement or relationship, which we refer to as a "related person transaction," the related person must report the proposed related person transaction to our chief financial officer or general counsel. The policy calls for the proposed related person transaction to be reviewed and, if deemed appropriate, approved by our audit committee. Whenever practicable, the reporting, review and approval will occur prior to entry into the transaction. If advance review and approval is not practicable, the committee will review, and, in its discretion, may ratify the related person transaction. The policy also permits the chair of the audit committee to review and, if deemed appropriate, approve proposed related person transactions that arise between committee meetings, subject to ratification by the committee at its next meeting. Any related person transactions that are ongoing in nature will be reviewed annually.

        A related person transaction reviewed under the policy will be considered approved or ratified if it is authorized by the audit committee after full disclosure of the related person's interest in the transaction. As appropriate for the circumstances, the audit committee will review and consider:

•

the related person's interest in the related person transaction;

•

the approximate dollar value of the amount involved in the related person transaction;

•

the approximate dollar value of the amount of the related person's interest in the transaction without regard to the amount of any profit or loss;

•

whether the transaction was undertaken in the ordinary course of our business;

•

whether the terms of the transaction are no less favorable to us than terms that could have been reached with an unrelated third party;

•

the purpose of, and the potential benefits to us of, the transaction; and

•

any other information regarding the related person transaction or the related person in the context of the proposed transaction that would be material to investors in light of the circumstances of such transaction.

        Our audit committee may approve or ratify the transaction only if it determines that, under all of the circumstances, the transaction is in our best interests. Our audit committee may impose any conditions on the related person transaction that it deems appropriate.

        In addition to the transactions that are excluded by the instructions to the SEC's related person transaction disclosure rule, our board of directors has determined that the following transactions do not create a material direct or indirect interest on behalf of related persons and, therefore, are not related person transactions for purposes of this policy:

•

interests arising solely from the related person's position as an executive officer of another entity, whether or not the person is also a director of the entity, that is a participant in the transaction where the related person and all other related persons own in the aggregate less than a 10% equity interest in such entity, the related person and his or her immediate family members are not involved in the negotiation of the terms of the transaction and do not receive

13

any special benefits as a result of the transaction and the amount involved in the transaction is less than the greater of $200,000 or 5% of the annual gross revenues of the company receiving payment under the transaction; and

•

a transaction that is specifically contemplated by provisions of our memorandum and articles of association.

        The policy provides that transactions involving compensation of our executive officers shall be reviewed and approved by our compensation committee in the manner specified in the compensation committee's charter.

        In addition, under our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, our directors, executive officers and employees have an affirmative responsibility to disclose any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to give rise to a conflict of interest.

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

        Since January 1, 2018, we have engaged in the following transactions with our executive officers, directors and holders of more than 5% of our voting securities, and affiliates of our executive officers, directors and 5% shareholders. We believe that all of the transactions described below were made on terms no less favorable to us than could have been obtained from unaffiliated third parties:

EXECUTIVE AND DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

        The following discussion provides the amount of compensation paid, and benefits in-kind granted, by us and our subsidiaries to the members of our board of directors and certain executives for services provided in all capacities to us and our subsidiaries for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Executive and Director Compensation Processes

        Our executive compensation program is administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors, subject to the oversight and approval of our full board of directors. Our compensation committee reviews our executive compensation practices on an annual basis and based on this review approves, or, as appropriate, makes recommendations to our board of directors for approval of our executive compensation program.

        In designing our executive compensation program, our compensation committee considers publicly available compensation data for national and regional companies in the biotechnology/pharmaceutical industry to help guide its executive compensation decisions at the time of hiring and for subsequent adjustments in compensation. Since 2016, our compensation committee has retained Radford, part of the Rewards Solutions practice of Aon plc, as its independent compensation consultant, to provide comparative data on executive compensation practices in our industry and to advise on our executive compensation program generally. The committee also has retained Radford for guidelines and review of non-employee director compensation. Although our compensation committee considers the advice and guidelines of Radford as to our executive compensation program, our compensation committee ultimately makes its own decisions about these matters. In the future, we expect that our compensation committee will continue to engage independent compensation consultants to provide additional guidance on our executive compensation programs and to conduct further competitive benchmarking against a peer group of publicly traded companies. In 2019, the total amount paid to Radford for its executive and director compensation consulting services was $150,396.75.

        Outside of services provided for the compensation committee, Radford provided nominal additional services to the company in 2019 related to benchmarking data with respect to certain non-executive positions in an effort to ensure that our compensation practices are competitive so that we can attract, reward, motivate and retain employees at all levels of our organization. The total amount paid to Radford in connection with these additional engagements was less than $120,000 in 2019.

        In addition, in 2010, Aon Risk Services, an affiliate of Radford, provided services as an insurance broker for various insurance policies including our products liability insurance, directors' and officers' liability insurance and other commercial business insurance. In 2019, Aon Risk Services received an aggregate of approximately $225,707 in connection with such services.

        The compensation committee regularly evaluates the nature and scope of the services provided by Radford. The compensation committee approved the 2019 executive and director compensation consulting services described above. Although the compensation committee was aware of the other services performed by Aon Risk Services, and considered any potential conflict with Radford's independence, the compensation committee did not review such other services as those services were reviewed and approved by management in the ordinary course of business.

        In order to ensure that Radford is independent, Radford is only engaged by, takes direction from, and reports to, the compensation committee and, accordingly, only the compensation committee has

18

the right to terminate or replace Radford at any time. Further, Radford maintains certain internal controls within Aon plc which include, among other things:

•

All Radford and Aon staff are required to review and complete courses covering the company's Code of Conduct, which forbids Radford and Aon staff from trading in a client's stock as well as the treatment of confidential client information;

•

Radford maintains a separate account management structure and database of contacts to protect the confidentiality of client lists and contacts;

•

Radford is not reliant on any one client for meeting performance expectations during the year, thereby minimizing any account concentration risk for an account manager, which could impair objectivity;

•

Radford's survey data are maintained on a separate IT platform to protect and secure the confidential nature of client information and the relationships where Radford provides services; and

•

Radford's staff is not directly compensated for any cross-selling of Aon product or service.

        The compensation committee reviewed information regarding the independence and potential conflicts of interest of Radford, taking into account, among other things, the factors set forth in the Nasdaq listing standards. Based on such review, the compensation committee concluded that the engagement of Radford did not raise any conflict of interest.

Our director compensation program is administered by our board of directors with the assistance of the compensation committee. The compensation committee conducts an annual review of director compensation and makes recommendations to the board of directors with respect thereto.

Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

Base Salary

        In 2019, we paid annualized base salaries of $560,000 to Mr. Schroeder; $436,200 to Dr. Schranz; and $472,100 to Dr. Gelone. In 2018, we paid annualized base salaries of $530,000 to Mr. Schroeder; $400,000 to Dr. Schranz; and $450,000 to Dr. Gelone upon the closing of the Zavante acquisition.

        In January 2020, our board of directors, following approval and recommendation from the compensation committee and consistent with the recommendations of the compensation committee's independent compensation consultant, approved an increase to the base salaries of our named executive officers for 2020 as follows: $576,800 for Mr. Schroeder, $449,300 for Dr. Schranz and $486,300 for Dr. Gelone. The board also approved 2020 base salaries for Mr. Crotty, our general counsel and secretary, of $392,200, Mr. Lavino, our chief commercial officer, of $384,500 and Mr. Sender, our chief financial officer, of $409,200, which also were consistent with the recommendation of the compensation committee's independent consultant.

        None of our named executive officers is currently party to an employment agreement or other agreement or arrangement that provides for automatic or scheduled increases in base salary.

Annual Performance-Based Compensation

        Our executive officers, which include the named executive officers, participate in our performance-based bonus program. All annual cash bonuses for our executives under the performance-based bonus program are tied to the achievement of strategic and operational corporate goals for the company, which are set by the compensation committee and approved by the board. There are no discretionary individual goals under the bonus program. The 2019 strategic and operational goals for Nabriva related to the following objectives:

•

regulatory approvals

•

commercialization of our product candidates

•

finance, specifically fundraising;

•

business development;

•

operating infrastructure; and,

•

chemistry, manufacturing, and control (CMC).

        Under their respective employment agreements, the annual target bonus for Mr. Schroeder is 60% of his current base salary, the annual target bonus for Dr. Gelone is 45% of his current base salary and the annual target bonus for each of Dr. Schranz, Mr. Sender, Mr. Crotty and Mr. Lavino is 40% of their respective current base salaries.

        At a meeting held in December 2019, our compensation committee reviewed the accomplishments of the named executive officers as measured against the aforementioned 2019 goals. The compensation committee reviewed whether each goal had been obtained and the weight such goals should be given in determining the bonus payout for 2019 performance. Based on its review, the compensation committee recommended a 90% payout of the target bonuses for 2019, which were paid in February 2020. Accordingly, the 2019 bonus payouts were $277,200 for Mr. Schroeder, $157,032 for Dr. Schranz and $191,201 for Dr. Gelone.

Equity Incentive Awards

        We believe that equity grants provide our executive officers with a strong link to our long-term performance, create an ownership culture and help to align the interests of our executive officers and

20

our shareholders. In addition, we believe that equity grants with a time-based vesting feature promote executive retention because this feature incents our executive officers to remain in our employment during the vesting period. Accordingly, our board of directors periodically reviews the equity incentive compensation of our executive officers, which includes the named executive officers, and from time to time may grant equity incentive awards to them in the form of stock options or restricted stock units, or RSUs. We also generally make stock option grants to new executive officers in connection with the commencement of their employment.

        We have historically granted stock options with exercise prices that are set at no less than the fair market value of the underlying award on the date of grant, as determined by contemporaneous valuations and reviewed, and approved by our compensation committee or our board.

        Effective as of February 6, 2020, our board of directors granted stock options under the 2020 Share Incentive Plan to Mr. Schroeder, Dr. Schranz, and Dr. Gelone subject to shareholder approval; provided that if such shareholder approval is not obtained, the options will remain outstanding and convert into a cash-settled share appreciation right. The stock options will vest over a four year period beginning on February 6, 2020. Twenty five percent (25%) of the options will vest on February 6, 2021, and the remaining seventy five percent (75%) will vest on a monthly pro rata basis over the remaining vesting period. Each of the option awards had an exercise price $1.35 per share, which was the closing sale price of our ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Global Market on the grant date. Mr. Schroeder, Dr. Schranz, and Dr. Gelone were also granted Restricted Stock Units, or RSUs under our 2017 Share Incentive Plan. The RSUs vest over a four year period beginning on February 6, 2020. Twenty five percent (25%) of the RSUs will vest of February 6, 2021, and the remaining seventy five percent (75%) will vest on a monthly pro rata basis over the remaining vesting period.

        The following table sets forth the number of our ordinary shares issuable upon exercise or vesting of the share awards granted to our named executive officers in 2020:

Name	Option Award (#)		RSU Award (#)
Theodore Schroeder		687,500		343,800
Steven Gelone		310,000		155,000
Jennifer Schranz		210,000		105,000

        On January 31, 2019, our board of directors granted stock options under the 2017 Share Incentive Plan to Mr. Schroeder, Dr. Schranz and Dr. Gelone. The options vest over a four year period beginning on January 31, 2019. Twenty five percent (25%) of the options vested on January 31, 2020, and the remaining seventy five percent (75%) will vest on a monthly pro rata basis over the remaining vesting period. Each of the option awards had an exercise price of $1.90 per share, which was the closing sale price of our ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Global Market on the grant date.

        Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Schroeder receives an annual base salary of $530,000 and is eligible to receive an annual performance bonus targeted at 50% of his annual base salary, with the actual amount of such bonus, if any, to be determined by the board of directors. For 2018, Mr. Schroeder's bonus was pro-rated to reflect his 2018 service to us. Mr. Schroeder is also eligible to receive equity awards at such times and on such terms and conditions as the board of directors may determine and is also entitled to participate in any and all benefit programs that we make available to our executive officers, for which he may be eligible, under the plan documents governing such programs.

        Pursuant to his employment agreement, the board of directors also approved the grant to Mr. Schroeder, effective as of the first business day immediately following his employment commencement date (the "Grant Date"), of a non-statutory stock option to purchase 850,000 ordinary shares at an exercise price per share equal to the closing price per share of the Company's ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Global Select Market on the Grant Date. The option award has a ten-year term and vests over a four-year period, with 25% of the shares underlying the award vesting on the first anniversary of his employment commencement date and the remaining 75% of the shares underlying the option award to vest monthly over the subsequent 36-month period.

        If Mr. Schroeder's employment is terminated for any other reason, including as a result of his death or disability, for cause, or voluntarily by Mr. Schroeder without good reason, our obligations under the employment agreement cease immediately, and Mr. Schroeder is only entitled to his base salary that has accrued and to which he is entitled as of the termination date and solely if his employment is terminated as a result of his death or disability, subject to his execution and nonrevocation of a release of claims in our favor and his continued compliance with his proprietary rights, non-disclosure and developments agreement with us, he or his estate, as applicable, is entitled to any earned but unpaid annual bonus from a previously completed calendar year.

Equity Incentive Plans

        In this section, we describe our 2020 Share Incentive Plan, 2017 Share Incentive Plan and Stock Option Plan 2015. Prior to the Redomiciliation, Nabriva Austria granted awards to eligible recipients under the Stock Option Plan 2015. In connection with the Redomiciliation, the Stock Option Plan 2015 was amended to take account of certain requirements under Irish law and assumed by us, with each option to acquire one Nabriva Austria common share becoming an option to acquire ten of our ordinary shares on the same terms and conditions. We currently make share awards to eligible recipients solely under our 2020 Share Incentive Plan and 2017 Share Incentive Plan.

2020 Share Incentive Plan

        On March 4, 2020, our board of directors adopted the 2020 Share Incentive Plan, or the 2020 Plan. The 2020 Plan provides for the grant of incentive share options, nonstatutory share options, share appreciation rights, restricted share awards, restricted share units, other share-based and cash-based awards and performance awards. The number of ordinary shares initially reserved for issuance under the 2020 Plan was 1,837,500 ordinary shares, and on April 29, 2020, our board of directors further amended the 2020 Share Incentive Plan, subject to shareholder approval, to increase the number of shares authorized for issuance thereunder. The 2020 Plan has not yet been approved by our shareholders and is being submitted for shareholder approval at our 2020 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders. For a more detailed summary of our 2020 Share Incentive Plan, please refer to Proposal 3 of this proxy statement.

2017 Share Incentive Plan

        The 2017 Share Incentive Plan permits the award of share options, share appreciation rights, or SARs, restricted shares, restricted share units or RSUs, and other share-based awards to our employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisers. Our board of directors will administer the 2017 Share Incentive Plan. As of March 31, 2020, under our 2017 Share Incentive Plan, there were options to purchase an aggregate of 5,419,644 of our ordinary shares at a weighted average exercise price of $3.10 per share, 2,287,021 restricted stock units outstanding with a weighted average grant date fair value of $3.31 per share, and 985,975 ordinary shares available for future issuance under the plan.

26

Shares covered by awards under the 2017 Share Incentive Plan that expire or are terminated, surrendered, or cancelled without having been fully exercised or are forfeited in whole or in part or that result in any shares not being issued will again be available for the grant of awards under the 2017 Share Incentive Plan (subject, in the case of incentive share options, to any limitations under the Internal Revenue Code, or the Code).

        Options and SARs granted under the 2017 Share Incentive Plan may not have an exercise price or measurement price, respectively, that is less than 100% of the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant; provided, however, that if our board of directors approves the grant of an option or SAR with an exercise price or measurement price to be determined on a future date, such price may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our ordinary shares on such future date. Such options and SARs will be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the board may specify in the applicable option or SAR agreement. No option or SAR will be granted with a term in excess of ten years.

        Restricted shares and RSUs granted under the 2017 Share Incentive Plan will determine the terms and conditions of restricted shares and RSUs, including the conditions for vesting and repurchase (or forfeiture) and the issue price, if any.

        If, during the term of the 2017 Share Incentive Plan, there is a change in our capital or a restructuring measure which has an effect on our capital, such as a share split or reverse share split, which change or measure results in a change in the value of the share-based awards outstanding under the 2017 Share Incentive Plan, the board will make appropriate adjustments to the price or the amount of such outstanding awards.

        The 2017 Share Incentive Plan also contains provisions addressing the consequences of any reorganization event. A reorganization event is defined as (a) any merger or consolidation of us with or into another entity as a result of which all of our ordinary shares are converted into or exchanged for the right to receive cash, securities or other property, or are cancelled, (b) any transfer or disposition of all of our ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property pursuant to a share exchange or other transaction or (c) our liquidation or dissolution; any one of which, (a), (b) or (c), may be effected pursuant to the laws of the Republic of Ireland.

        The 2017 Share Incentive Plan provides that, if a reorganization event occurs, the board of directors may take one or more of the following actions to all or any outstanding awards other than restricted shares on such terms as the board of directors determines: (1) provide that such awards will be assumed, or substantially equivalent awards will be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof), (2) upon written notice to a participant, provide that all of the participant's unvested awards will be forfeited immediately prior to the consummation of such reorganization event and/or that all of the participant's unexercised awards will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such reorganization event unless exercised by the participant (to the extent then exercisable) within a specified period following the date of such notice, (3) provide that outstanding awards will become exercisable, realizable, or deliverable, or restrictions applicable to an award will lapse, in whole or in part prior to or upon such reorganization event, (4) in the event of a reorganization event under the terms of which holders of our ordinary shares will receive, upon consummation thereof, a cash payment for each share surrendered in the reorganization event, which we refer to as the Acquisition Price, make or provide for a cash payment to participants with respect to each award held by a participant equal to (A) the number of ordinary shares subject to the vested portion of the award (after giving effect to any acceleration of vesting that occurs upon or immediately prior to such reorganization event) multiplied by (B) the excess, if any, of (I) the Acquisition Price over (II) the exercise, measurement or purchase price of such award and any applicable tax withholdings, in exchange for the termination of such award, (5) provide that, in connection with our liquidation or dissolution, awards will convert into the right to receive liquidation proceeds (if applicable, net of the

27

exercise, measurement or purchase price thereof and any applicable tax withholdings) and (6) any combination of the foregoing. Our board is not obligated to treat all awards, all awards held by a participant, or all awards of the same type, identically.

        No award may be granted under the 2017 Share Incentive Plan after the earlier of September 14, 2027 and shareholder approval of the 2020 Plan. The board of directors may, at any time, amend, suspend or terminate the 2017 Share Incentive Plan or any portion thereof. However, if shareholder approval is required, including by application of Irish law, the board may not effect such modification or amendment without such approval.

Stock Option Plan 2015

        The Stock Option Plan 2015 provided for the grant of options to purchase our ordinary shares to our employees, including executive officers, and to directors. As of March 31, 2020, under our Stock Option Plan 2015, there were options to purchase an aggregate of 2,262,365 of our ordinary shares at a weighted average exercise price of $8.32 per share and no ordinary shares were available for issuance under the plan. Following the approval of the 2017 Share Incentive Plan by our shareholders on September 15, 2017, we ceased granting awards under the Stock Option Plan 2015, Unless the context specifically indicates otherwise, references to our Stock Option Plan 2015 in this proxy statement refer to the Stock Option Plan 2015, as amended and adopted by us.

        Options granted under the Stock Option Plan 2015 entitle beneficiaries thereof to purchase our ordinary shares at an exercise price equal to 100% of the fair market value per share on the beneficiary's date of participation, which following the Redomiciliation was derived from the closing sale price of our ordinary shares on the Nasdaq Global Market. Options granted under the Stock Option Plan 2015 generally vest over four years from the beneficiary's date of participation. Typically, 25% of the options subject to a particular grant vest on the last day of the last calendar month of the first year of the vesting period, and the remaining 75% vests on a monthly pro-rata basis over the second, third and fourth years of the vesting period (i.e., 2.083% per month). Any alternative vesting period determined by us is subject to approval by our executive officers, board of directors or shareholders, in accordance with any applicable voting requirements.

        The Stock Option Plan 2015 provides that, if a liquidity event (as defined below) occurs, all options outstanding under the Stock Option Plan 2015 will be assumed (or substantially equivalent awards will be substituted by an acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate of the acquiring or succeeding corporation)), and any then-unvested options shall continue to vest in accordance with the beneficiary's original vesting schedule. If a beneficiary is terminated due to a good leaver event (within the meaning of the Stock Option Plan 2015), on or prior to the first anniversary of the date of the liquidity event, the beneficiary's options will be immediately exercisable in full as of the date of such termination. If the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate of the acquiring or succeeding corporation) refuses to assume the options outstanding under the Stock Option Plan 2015 or to substitute substantially equivalent options therefor, all then-unvested options under the Stock Option Plan 2015 will automatically vest in full upon the liquidity event. For purposes of the Stock Option Plan 2015, a liquidity event generally refers to an exclusive license of or the sale, lease or other disposal of all or substantially all of our assets, a sale or other disposal (but not a pledge) of 50% or more of our shares, a merger or consolidation of us with or into any third party, or our liquidation, winding up or other form of dissolution of us.

        Unless otherwise specifically permitted in an option agreement or resolved upon by the board of directors, the exercise of vested options is permitted under the Stock Option Plan 2015 only during specified periods and on specified terms in the case of a liquidity event or following an initial public offering occurring during the term of the option. A beneficiary is entitled to exercise vested options at any time during the remaining term of the option while the beneficiary is providing services to us, and

28

within the three-month period following a termination of the beneficiary's services due to a good leaver event. Options granted under the Stock Option Plan 2015 will have a term of no more than ten years from the beneficiary's date of participation.

        If, during the term of the Stock Option Plan 2015, there is a change in our capital or a restructuring measure which has an effect on our capital, such as a stock split or reverse stock split, which change or measure results in a change in the value of the options outstanding under the Stock Option Plan 2015, the board may make appropriate adjustments to the price or the amount of such outstanding options.

        The board of directors may, at any time, amend, suspend or terminate the Stock Option Plan 2015 in whole or in part. However, if shareholder approval is required, including by application of Irish law, the board may not effect such modification or amendment without such approval.

2018 Employee Share Purchase Plan

        Our 2018 Employee Share Purchase Plan, or ESPP, was adopted by our board of directors on May 2, 2018 and approved by our shareholders on August 1, 2018. The ESPP provides for 500,000 of our ordinary shares to be available for purchase by eligible employees according to its terms.

        All employees of the company and any subsidiary of the company designated by our board or a committee appointed by our board are eligible to participate provided that they work at least twenty hours per week and for more than five months in a calendar year, are employees for at least one month prior to enrolling in the ESPP and are employees on the first day of the applicable offering period. In addition, no employee may be granted an option under the ESPP that would result in the employee owning shares and/or options to purchase shares representing five percent or more of the total combined voting power or value of all of our shares. The company retains the discretion to determine which eligible employees may participate in any offering under the ESPP pursuant to and consistent with the Treasury Regulations issued under Section 423 of the Code.

        Our ESPP permits eligible employees to purchase shares of our ordinary shares at a discount. Eligible employees may elect to participate by completing a written or electronic payroll deduction authorization form, and authorizing after-tax payroll deductions from their pay, and timely filing it with our payroll office. The deadline by which a payroll deduction authorization form must be submitted is established by the Company but, in the absence of any other determination, is ten days before the first day of the applicable offering period. Participants can elect to contribute up to 15 percent (in whole percentages only) of their compensation (as defined in the ESPP) received on each pay day during the offering period. The board or a committee appointed by our board may, at its discretion, designate a lower maximum contribution rate, and the minimum payroll deduction is such percentage of compensation as may be established by the board or a committee appointed by our board from time to time.

        The ESPP will be implemented by consecutive six-month offering periods. The ESPP provides that such offering periods will commence on the first business day on or after May 1 and November 1 of each year. Our board or a committee appointed by our board may, in its discretion, choose a different offering period of not more than 12 months and/or choose a different commencement date for offerings under the ESPP.

        On the first day of each offering period, each employee who is enrolled in the ESPP will automatically receive an option to purchase, on the last business day of the offering period, up to that number of our ordinary shares determined by multiplying $2,083 by the number of full months in the offering period and dividing the result by the closing price of our ordinary shares on the first day of the offering period, or such lesser number of shares set by the board or a committee appointed by our board. However, no eligible employee may be granted an option under the ESPP that permits the

29

employee's rights to purchase our ordinary shares under the ESPP (or any other employee share purchase plan of ours that we may adopt) to accrue at a rate that exceeds $25,000 of the fair market value (based on the value of the shares on the first day of the offering period) of our ordinary shares in any given calendar year in which such option is outstanding at any time.

        Unless an employee withdraws from the ESPP, the employee's option will be exercised automatically on the last business day of the offering period for the largest number of whole shares subject to the employee's option that can be purchased with the deductions accumulated as of the last business day of the offering period. An option shall expire on the last business day of the applicable offering period and any balance remaining in an employee's payroll deduction account at the end of an offering period will be automatically refunded to the employee. However, if the balance of the employee's payroll deduction account is less than the purchase price of one ordinary share, the balance will be carried forward into the employee's payroll deduction account for the following offering, unless the participant has elected not to participate in the following offering (in which case, the amount will be refunded).

        The board or a committee appointed by our board will determine the purchase price of shares subject to an option granted under the ESPP for each offering period, including whether the purchase price will be determined based on the lesser of the closing price of our ordinary shares on (i) the first business day of the offering period or (ii) the last business day of the offering period, or whether it will be based solely on the closing price of our ordinary shares on the last business day of the offering period, provided that, in all events, the purchase price will be at least 85% of the applicable closing price. In the absence of a determination by the board or a committee appointed by our board, the ESPP provides that the purchase price of shares subject to an option granted under the ESPP in any given offering period will be 85% of the closing price of one ordinary share on the first business day of the offering period or the last business day of the offering period, whichever is lower. If the total number of ordinary shares with respect to which options are to be exercised exceeds the number of shares remaining available for issuance under the ESPP, we will only issue to participants in that offering that number of shares remaining available for issuance on a pro-rata basis.

        We are required to make equitable adjustments, to the extent determined by our board of directors or a committee appointed by our board, to the number and class of securities available under the ESPP, the share limitations under the ESPP and the purchase price for an offering period under the ESPP to reflect share splits, reverse share splits, share dividends, recapitalizations, combinations of shares, reclassifications of shares, spin-offs and other similar changes in capitalization or events or any dividends or distributions to holders of our ordinary shares other than ordinary cash dividends.

        In connection with a merger or other reorganization event (as defined in the ESPP), our board of directors or a committee appointed by our board may take any one or more of the following actions as to outstanding options to purchase our ordinary shares under the ESPP on such terms as our board of directors or committee appointed by our board determines:

•

provide that options will be assumed, or substantially equivalent options will be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof);

•

upon written notice to employees, provide that all outstanding options will be terminated immediately prior to the consummation of the reorganization event and that all such outstanding options will become exercisable to the extent of accumulated payroll deductions as of a date specified by our board of directors or committee appointed by our board in such notice, which date will not be less than ten (10) days preceding the effective date of the reorganization event;

•

upon written notice to employees, provide that all outstanding options will be cancelled as of a date prior to the effective date of the reorganization event and that all accumulated payroll deductions will be returned to participating employees on such date;

30

•

in the event of a reorganization event under the terms of which holders of our ordinary shares will receive upon consummation of the reorganization event a cash payment for each share surrendered in the reorganization event, change the last day of the offering period to be the date of the consummation of the reorganization event and make or provide for a cash payment to each employee equal to (1) the cash payment for each share surrendered in the reorganization event times the number of our ordinary shares that the employee's accumulated payroll deductions as of immediately prior to the reorganization event could purchase at the applicable purchase price, where the cash payment for each share surrendered in the reorganization event is treated as the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the last day of the applicable offering period for purposes of determining the purchase price and where the number of shares that could be purchased is subject to the applicable limitations under the ESPP, minus (2) the result of multiplying such number of shares by the purchase price; and/or

•

provide that, in connection with our liquidation or dissolution, options will convert into the right to receive liquidation proceeds (net of the purchase price).

        Our board of directors may, at any time, and from time to time, amend or suspend the ESPP or any portion of the ESPP. However, the ESPP may not be amended in any way that will cause rights issued under the ESPP to fail to meet the requirements for employee share purchase plans as defined in Section 423 of the Code, including shareholder approval if required. The ESPP may be terminated at any time by the board of directors. Upon termination of the ESPP all amounts in the accounts of participants will be promptly refunded.

        Our board of directors may allow employees who are citizens or residents of foreign jurisdictions to participate in an offering period or establish sub-plans for the benefit of such foreign employees to the extent such actions are in compliance with Section 423 of the Code.

401(k) Plan

        We maintain a defined contribution employee retirement plan for our U.S.-based employees. Our 401(k) plan is intended to qualify as a tax-qualified plan under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code, so that contributions to our 401(k) plan, and income earned on such contributions, are not taxable to participants until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan. Our 401(k) plan provides that each participant may contribute up to 100% of his or her pre-tax compensation, up to a statutory limit, which was $19,000 for 2019 and is $19,500 for 2020. Participants who are at least 50 years old can also make "catch-up" contributions, which in 2019 was up to an additional $6,000 above the statutory limit and in 2020 may be up to an additional $6,500 above the statutory limit. Under our 401(k) plan, each employee is fully vested in his or her deferred salary contributions. Employee contributions are held and invested by the plan's trustee, subject to participants' ability to give investment directions by following certain procedures. We match 100.0% of the first 3.0% of the employee's voluntary contribution to the 401(k) plan and 50.0% of the next 2.0% contributed by the employee.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

        Section 162(m) of the Code generally disallows a tax deduction to public companies for compensation in excess of $1 million paid in any taxable year to each of certain of the company's current and former executive officers. Historically, compensation that qualified under Section 162(m) as performance-based compensation was exempt from the deduction limitation. However, subject to certain transition rules, the tax reform legislation signed into law on December 22, 2017 eliminated the qualified performance-based compensation exception. As a result, for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2017, all compensation in excess of $1 million paid in any taxable year to each of to the specified officers that is not covered by the transition rules will not be deductible by us. The board of directors has and will continue to review on a periodic basis the potential effect of Section 162(m) and

31

may use its judgment to authorize compensation payments that may be in excess of the limit when it believes such payments are appropriate and in the best interests of our company and our shareholders.

Securities Authorized for Issuance under Equity Compensation Plans

        The following table contains information about our equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2019. As of December 31, 2019, we had four equity compensation plans: the 2017 Share Incentive Plan, the Stock Option Plan 2015 and the 2018 Employee Share Purchase Plan, each of which were approved by our shareholders and the 2020 Share Incentive Plan which has been adopted by our board of directors and which we expect to submit to our shareholders for approval at our 2020 Annual General Meeting. In addition, from time to time, the compensation committee grants inducement equity awards to individuals as an inducement material to the individual's entry into employment with us within the meaning of Nasdaq Listing Rules, including pursuant to our 2019 Inducement Share Incentive Plan, or the Inducement Plan, that was adopted by our board of directors without shareholder approval.

Includes ordinary shares available for issuance under our 2019 Inducement Share Incentive Plan. On April 29, 2020, our board of directors amended our 2019 Inducement Share Incentive Plan to reduce the number of shares available for grant under the plan. As of June 2, 2020, no shares remained available for grant under the 2019 Inducement Share Incentive Plan.

        The 2017 Share Incentive Plan includes provisions for an annual increase, to be added the first day of each fiscal year, beginning in the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 and continuing until, and including, the fiscal year ending December 31, 2027, with such annual increase to be equal to the least of 2,000,000 ordinary shares, 4% of the number of ordinary shares outstanding on the first day of the fiscal year and an amount determined by our board of directors. In 2020, such annual increase was 2,000,000 ordinary shares.

32

Risk Considerations in Our Compensation Program

        Our compensation committee has reviewed and evaluated the philosophy and standards on which our compensation plans have been developed and implemented across our company. It is our belief that our compensation programs do not encourage inappropriate actions or risk taking by our executive officers. We do not believe that any risks arising from our employee compensation policies and practices are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on our company. In addition, we do not believe that the mix and design of the components of our executive compensation program encourage management to assume excessive risks.

•

each non-employee director receives an annual grant of an option to purchase 35,000 of our ordinary shares on the date of our annual general meeting of shareholders;

each non-employee director receives an annual cash fee of $40,000;

•

the chairman of our board of directors receives an additional annual cash fee of $30,000;

each non-employee director who is a member of the compensation committee receives an additional annual cash fee of $7,500 ($15,000 for the compensation committee chair); and

•

each non-employee director who is a member of the nominating and corporate governance committee receives an additional annual cash fee of $5,000 ($10,000 for the nominating and corporate governance committee chair).

34

        The board of directors approved the annual grants to non-employee directors for the 2019 fiscal year on July 31, 2019.

        On December 16, 2019, our board of directors approved an amendment to our non-employee director compensation policy. Effective as of December 16, 2019, the amendment increased the initial grant of an option to purchase our ordinary shares to new non-employee directors upon their initial election to the board of directors to 105,000 ordinary shares and increased the annual grant of an option to purchase our ordinary shares to 35,000 ordinary shares and 17,500 restricted stock units.

        The stock options to be granted to our non-employee directors under our non-employee director compensation policy have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant and will expire ten years after the date of grant. The initial stock options granted to newly elected director vest, subject to such director's continued service on the board, over a three-year period on a monthly pro-rata basis at the end of each successive month following the date of the initial grant. The annual stock options granted to directors will vest, subject to such director's continued service on the board, fully on the last date of the month of the first anniversary of the grant date. The annual restricted stock units awarded to directors will vest, subject to such director's continued service on the board, fully on the last date of the month of the first anniversary of the grant date.

        Under our non-employee director compensation policy, the annual cash fees are payable in arrears in four equal quarterly installments payable the week following the end of each quarter. Each non-employee director is also entitled to reimbursement for reasonable travel and other expenses incurred in connection with attending meetings of the board of directors and any committee on which he or she serves or otherwise in direct service of the company.

AUDIT-RELATED MATTERS

Audit Committee Report

        The audit committee of the board of directors reviewed our audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and discussed them with management and KPMG LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm.

MATTERS TO BE VOTED ON

Proposal 1: Election of Directors

        Based upon the recommendation of the nominating and corporate governance committee of our board of directors, our board of directors has nominated each of Daniel Burgess, Carrie Bourdow, Colin Broom, Charles A. Rowland, Jr., Theodore Schroeder, George H. Talbot and Stephen Webster for election as directors to serve until the 2021 Annual General Meeting. All nominees are presently directors and their biographies are provided above under "Corporate Governance—Board of Directors."

        Unless otherwise instructed in the proxy, all proxies will be voted "FOR" the election of each of the nominees identified above. Shareholders who do not wish their shares to be voted for any of the nominees may so indicate by striking out the name of such nominee(s) on the proxy card. Each of the nominees has indicated his or her willingness to serve on our board of directors, if elected. If any nominee should be unable to serve, the person acting under the proxy may vote the proxy for a substitute nominee designated by our board of directors. We do not contemplate that any of the nominees will be unable to serve if elected.

        In order to be elected as a director, each nominee must receive the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Annual General Meeting.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE NOMINEES AS DIRECTORS.

Proposal 2: To Ratify, in a Non-Binding Advisory Vote, the Selection of KPMG LLP as Our Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for the Fiscal Year Ending December 31, 2020 and to Authorize, in a Binding Vote, the Board of Directors, Acting Through the Audit Committee, to set the Auditor's Remuneration

        The audit committee of our board of directors has selected the firm of KPMG LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2020. KPMG has served as our independent registered public accounting firm since May 30, 2017. Our board of directors is seeking shareholder ratification of the selection by the audit committee of KPMG to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm and the authorization of the board of directors, acting through the audit committee, to set the auditor's remuneration. If this proposal is not approved at the AGM, our audit committee may reconsider this selection.

        Representatives of KPMG are expected to be present telephonically at the AGM and will have the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so. It is also expected that they will be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders.

        The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the AGM is required for this proposal.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE RATIFICATION OF THE SELECTION OF KPMG LLP AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM FOR THE FISCAL YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31, 2020 AND THE AUTHORIZATION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS, ACTING THROUGH THE AUDIT COMMITTEE, TO SET THE AUDITOR'S REMUNERATION.

Proposal 3: To Approve the Adoption of Our 2020 Share Incentive Plan, as amended

Why We Are Requesting Shareholder Approval of the 2020 Share Incentive Plan, as amended

        We are asking our shareholders to approve the Nabriva Therapeutics plc 2020 Share Incentive Plan, as amended, which we refer to in this Proposal 3 as the 2020 Plan. Our board of directors

37

believes that our success depends, in large part, on our ability to maintain a competitive position by attracting, retaining and motivating key personnel with experience and ability. The market for qualified personnel in our industry is highly competitive. Among the companies we compete with for talent are many early stage, private and venture-backed entities. These companies regularly offer equity incentives as a central and significant component of their compensation packages. The ability to grant equity awards is therefore critical to our ability to attract, retain and motivate top talent and is a key component of our compensation program. However, we do not currently have sufficient shares available under the 2017 Share Incentive Plan, as amended, which we refer to in this Proposal 3 as the 2017 Plan, to make critical, market-based grants to our executives and other employees and non-employee directors. On March 4, 2020, our board of directors adopted the 2020 Share Incentive Plan. The 2020 Share Incentive Plan was subsequently amended by the board of directors on April 29, 2020, subject to shareholder approval, to increase the number of shares available for issuance under the 2020 Plan. The 2020 Plan, if approved by our shareholders, will replace our 2017 Plan. If the 2020 Plan is approved by our shareholders, no further awards will be made under the 2017 Plan. However, all then outstanding awards under the 2017 Plan will remain in effect and continue to be governed by the terms of the 2017 Plan. The features of the 2020 Plan protect shareholder interests and are consistent with good corporate governance. They are described in greater detail below under the heading "—The 2020 Plan Protects Shareholder Interests and Is Consistent with Good Corporate Governance."

We have not adjusted any of the amounts in this Proposal 3 to reflect the effect of the proposed Reverse Stock Split described in Proposal 4 of this proxy statement. If the Reverse Stock Split Proposal is implemented, the number of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares will be reduced at a ratio of one-for-ten. As of the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, we would also adjust and proportionately decrease the number of our ordinary shares reserved for issuance upon exercise of, and adjust and proportionately increase the exercise price of, all options and warrants and other rights to acquire our ordinary shares. In addition, as of the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, we would adjust and proportionately decrease the total number of our ordinary shares that may be the subject of the future grants under our share plans, including the 2020 Plan. For a more detailed summary of the proposed Reverse Stock Split, please refer to Proposal 4 of this proxy statement.

        If shareholders approve the 2020 Plan, subject to adjustment in the event of share splits and other similar events, awards (any or all of which may be in the form of incentive share options) may be made under the 2020 Plan for up to the sum of (1) 9,300,000 ordinary shares; plus (2) a number of ordinary shares (up to 10,925,480 ordinary shares) which is equal to the sum of the number of our ordinary shares that remain available for grant under the 2017 Plan as of immediately prior to the AGM and the number of ordinary shares subject to awards granted under the 2017 Plan and our Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan 2015, as amended, that expire, terminate or are otherwise surrendered, cancelled, forfeited or repurchased by us at their original issuance price pursuant to a contractual repurchase right (subject, in the case of incentive share options, to any limitations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the Code). We believe that the size of proposed share pool under the 2020 Plan is reasonable and, if shareholder approval of the 2020 Plan is obtained at the AGM, we expect that the proposed share pool under the 2020 Plan will allow us to continue to grant equity awards at our historic rates for at least two years, but may vary based on changes in participation and our share price. An analysis of our "overhang" and "burn rate" appears below under the heading "—Monitoring of Overhang and Dilution and Prudent Use of Equity."

38

        The following table describes the awards that are outstanding and the number of shares that remain available for issuance as of June 2, 2020 under our share incentive plans:

2017 Plan	• options to purchase an aggregate of 5,087,832 of our ordinary shares, with a weighted average remaining term of 8.8 years and a weighted average exercise price of $3.11 per share; • 1,948,114 restricted share units, with a weighted average grant date fair value of $1.83 per share; and • 1,659,982 ordinary shares available for future issuance.
Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan 2015	• options to purchase an aggregate of 2,229,552 of our ordinary shares, with a weighted average remaining term of 6.0 years and a weighted average exercise price of $8.31 per share; and • no ordinary shares available for future issuance.
Inducement Grants (including under the 2019 Inducement Share Incentive Plan)	• options to purchase an aggregate of 1,248,250 of our ordinary shares that were granted as inducements were outstanding with a weighted average remaining term of 8.7 years and a weighted average exercise price of $3.03 per share; • no restricted share units; and • no ordinary shares remain available for future issuance under our 2019 Inducement Share Incentive Plan.

        In addition, as of June 2, 2020 options to purchase an aggregate of 1,837,500 of our ordinary shares had been granted under the 2020 Plan with an exercise price of $1.35 per share, subject to shareholder approval of the 2020 Plan (the "Contingent Options"). If shareholder approval of the 2020 Plan is not obtained at the AGM, the Contingent Options will convert automatically into cash-settled share appreciation rights, or SARs, with the 2020 Plan effective to the extent necessary to govern the administration of such cash-settled awards. If the 2020 Plan is not approved by our shareholders at the AGM, no further awards will be made under the 2020 Plan, and we will continue to grant awards under our 2017 Plan.

        The shares available for grant under the 2020 Plan would facilitate our ability to continue to grant equity incentives which is vital to our ability to fully engage and attract and retain the highly skilled individuals required to support our retention and growth in the highly competitive labor markets in which we compete. We strongly believe that the approval of the 2020 Plan is instrumental to our continued success.

The 2020 Plan Protects Shareholder Interests and Is Consistent with Good Corporate Governance

•

No Evergreen.  The 2020 Plan does not provide for any automatic increase in the number of ordinary shares available for issuance under the 2020 Plan.

•

No Liberal Share Recycling.  The 2020 Plan prohibits the re-granting of (i) shares withheld or delivered to satisfy the exercise price of an award or to satisfy tax withholding obligations with respect to awards, (ii) shares that were subject to a SAR and were not issued upon the net settlement or net exercise of such award, or (iii) shares repurchased by the Company on the open market using proceeds from the exercise of an award.

•

No Repricing of Options or SARs.  The 2020 Plan prohibits the direct or indirect repricing of share options or SARs without shareholder approval.

39

•

No Discounted Options or SARs.  All options and SARs must have an exercise or measurement price that is at least equal to the fair market value of the underlying ordinary share on the date of grant.

•

No Reload Options or SARs.  No options or SARs granted under the 2020 Plan may contain a provision entitling the award holder to the automatic grant of additional options or SARs in connection with any exercise of the original option or SAR.

•

No Dividend Equivalents on Options or SARs.  No options or SARs granted under the 2020 Plan may provide for the payment or accrual of dividend equivalents.

•

Dividends & Dividend Equivalents on Restricted Shares, Restricted Share Units and Other Share-Based Awards and Other Cash-Based Awards Not Paid Until Award Vests. Any dividends or dividend equivalents granted with respect to restricted shares, restricted share units or other share-based awards and other cash-based awards will be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and forfeitability as the award with respect to which they are granted.

•

Material Amendments Require Shareholder Approval.  Shareholder approval is required prior to an amendment to the 2020 Plan that would (i) materially increase the number of shares authorized, (ii) expand the types of awards that may be granted, or (iii) materially expand the class of participants eligible to participate.

•

Limit Applicable to Non-Employee Directors.  The maximum value of shares subject to awards granted under the sub-plan of the 2020 Plan in any fiscal year to an individual non-employee director may not exceed $500,000 in the case of an incumbent director or $1,000,000 in the case of a new director during his or her first year of service and the maximum amount of cash compensation paid in any fiscal year to any individual non-employee director may not exceed $175,000 in the case of an incumbent director or $225,000 in the case of the chairman of our board of directors. Exceptions to these limitations may only be made by a committee of our board of directors in extraordinary circumstances provided that the non-employee director receiving any additional compensation does not participate in the decision to award such compensation.

•

Administered by an Independent Committee.  The 2020 Plan is administered by our compensation committee, which is made up entirely of independent directors.

Information Regarding Overhang and Dilution

        In developing our share request for the 2020 Plan and analyzing the impact of utilizing equity as a means of compensation on our shareholders, we considered both our "overhang" and our "burn rate".

        Overhang is a measure of potential dilution which we define as the sum of (i) the total number of shares underlying all equity awards outstanding and (ii) the total number of shares available for future award grants, divided by the sum of (a) the total number of shares underlying all equity awards outstanding, (b) the total number of shares available for future awards and (c) the number of shares outstanding. As of June 2, 2020, there were 10,403,534 shares underlying all option awards outstanding, 1,948,114 shares underlying all restricted share unit awards outstanding, 1,659,982 shares available for future award under our 2017 Plan and the number of ordinary shares outstanding for the period ended June 2, 2020 was 142,965,483. Accordingly, our overhang on June 2, 2020 was 9.8%. If the 7,462,500 additional shares proposed to be authorized for grant under the 2020 Plan are included in the calculation, our overhang on June 2, 2020 would have been 15.0%.

        Burn rate provides a measure of the potential dilutive impact of our equity award program which we calculate by dividing the number of shares subject to equity awards granted during the year by the

40

basic weighted average number of shares outstanding. Set forth below is a table that reflects our burn rate for the 2019, 2018 and 2017 calendar years as well as an average over those years.

Calendar Year	Awards Granted(1)		Basic Weighted Average Number of Ordinary Shares Outstanding		Gross Burn Rate(2)
2019		3,645,450		74,199,482		4.91	%
2018		4,440,675		50,795,768		8.74	%
2017		1,752,400		29,830,669		5.87	%
Three-Year Average		3,279,508		51,608,640		6.51	%

(1)

Awards granted includes shares subject to options and shares subject to restricted share unit awards, in each case counted on a one-for-one basis.

(2)

"Gross burn rate" which we define as the number of equity awards granted in the year divided by the basic weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding.

Description of the 2020 Plan

        The following summary of the 2020 Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the 2020 Plan, as proposed, which is attached as Appendix A to this proxy statement. References to the board of directors in this summary includes the compensation committee of the board of directors or any similar committee appointed by the board of directors to administer the 2020 Plan.

Types of Awards; Shares Available for Awards; Share Counting Rules

        The 2020 Plan allows for the issuance of incentive share options intended to qualify under Section 422 of the Code, nonstatutory share options, SARs, restricted shares, RSUs and other share-based awards and other cash-based awards, which we refer to collectively as awards. Subject to adjustment in the event of share splits, share dividends or similar events, awards (any or all of which may be in the form of incentive share options) may be made under the 2020 Plan for up to the sum of (1) 9,300,000 ordinary shares; plus (2) a number of ordinary shares (up to 10,925,480 ordinary shares) which is equal to the sum of the number of our ordinary shares that remain available for grant under the 2017 Plan as of immediately prior to the AGM and the number of ordinary shares subject to awards granted under the 2017 Plan and our Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan 2015, as amended, that expire, terminate or are otherwise surrendered, cancelled, forfeited or repurchased by us at their original issuance price pursuant to a contractual repurchase right.

        The sub-plan adopted under the 2020 Plan which governs the awards made under the 2020 Plan to non-employee service providers, provides that the maximum value (calculated based on grant date fair value for financial reporting purposes) of shares subject to awards granted under the sub-plan in any fiscal year to any individual non-employee director may not exceed $500,000 in the case of an incumbent director or $1,000,000 in the case of a new director during his or her first year of service. In addition, the maximum amount of cash compensation paid in any fiscal year to any individual non-employee director may not exceed $175,000 in the case of an incumbent director or $225,000 in the case of the chairman of our board of directors. The committee of our board of directors may make exceptions to these limits for individual nonemployee directors in extraordinary circumstances, as the committee may determine in its discretion, provided that the non-employee director receiving such additional compensation may not participate in the decision to award such compensation.

41

        For purposes of counting the number of shares available for the grant of awards under the 2020 Plan, all ordinary shares covered by SARs will be counted against the number of shares available for the grant of awards under the 2020 Plan. However, SARs that may be settled only in cash will not be so counted, and if we grant an SAR in tandem with an option for the same number of ordinary shares and provide that only one such award may be exercised, which we refer to as a tandem SAR, only the shares covered by the option, and not the shares covered by the tandem SAR, will be so counted, and the expiration of one in connection with the other's exercise will not restore shares to the 2020 Plan.

        Shares covered by awards under the 2020 Plan that expire or are terminated, surrendered, or cancelled without having been fully exercised or are forfeited in whole or in part (including as the result of shares subject to such award being repurchased by us at the original issuance price pursuant to a contractual repurchase right) or that result in any shares not being issued (including as a result of an SAR that was settleable either in cash or in ordinary shares actually being settled in cash) will again be available for the grant of awards under the 2020 Plan (subject, in the case of incentive share options, to any limitations under the Code). In the case of the exercise of an SAR, the number of shares counted against the shares available for the grant of awards will be the full number of shares subject to the SAR multiplied by the percentage of the SAR actually exercised, regardless of the number of shares actually used to settle the SAR upon exercise, and the shares covered by a tandem SAR will not again become available for grant upon the expiration or termination of the tandem SAR.

        Ordinary shares that are delivered (by actual delivery, attestation, or net exercise) to us by a participant to purchase ordinary shares upon exercise of an award or to satisfy tax withholding obligations with respect to awards (including shares retained from the award creating the tax obligation) will not be added back to the number of shares available for the future grant of awards under the 2020 Plan. Ordinary shares of ours repurchased by us on the open market using the proceeds from the exercise of an award will not increase the number of shares available for future grant of awards under the 2020 Plan.

        In connection with a merger or consolidation of an entity with us or our acquisition of property or shares of an entity, our board of directors may grant awards under the 2020 Plan in substitution for any options or other shares or share-based awards granted by such entity or an affiliate thereof on such terms as our board of directors determines appropriate in the circumstances, notwithstanding any limitation on awards contained in the 2020 Plan. Any such substitute awards will not count against the overall share limit, except as required by Section 422 and related provisions of the Code.

        Shares issued under the 2020 Plan may consist in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares.

Descriptions of Awards.

        Options.    Optionees receive the right to purchase a specified number of our ordinary shares at a specified option price and subject to such other terms and conditions as are specified in connection with the option grant. Only our employees or employees of our subsidiaries may receive "incentive share options" as defined in Section 422 of the Code. An option that is not intended to be an "incentive share option" is a "nonstatutory share option". Options may not be granted at an exercise price that is less than 100% of the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant; provided, however, that if our board of directors approves the grant of an option with an exercise price to be determined on a future date, the exercise price may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our ordinary shares on such future date. Under present law, incentive share options may not be granted at an exercise price less than 110% of the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date of grant in the case of incentive share options granted to optionees holding more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our shares or any of our subsidiaries. Under the terms of the 2020 Plan, options may not be granted for a term of more than ten years (and, under present law,

42

five years in the case of incentive share options granted to optionees holding greater than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our shares or any of our subsidiaries). The 2020 Plan permits participants to pay the exercise price of options using one or more of the following manners of payment: (i) payment by cash, by check or, except as may otherwise be provided in the applicable option agreement or approved by our board of directors, in connection with a "cashless exercise" through a broker, (ii) to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement or approved by our board of directors, and subject to certain conditions, by delivery of ordinary shares to us owned by the participant valued at their fair market value, (iii) except for awards made to non-employee participants, to the extent provided in an applicable nonstatutory share option agreement or approved by our board of directors, by delivery of a notice of "net exercise" as a result of which we will retain a number of ordinary shares otherwise issuable pursuant to the share option equal to the aggregate exercise price for the portion of the option being exercised divided by the fair market value of an ordinary share of ours on the date of exercise, (iv) to the extent permitted by applicable law and provided for in the applicable option agreement or approved by our board of directors, by payment of any other lawful consideration as our board of directors may determine, or (v) by any combination of these forms of payment. No option granted under the 2020 Plan may contain any provision entitling the participant to the automatic grant of additional options in connection with the exercise of the original option nor may any option granted under the 2020 Plan provide for the payment or accrual of dividend equivalents.

        Share Appreciation Rights.    An SAR is an award entitling the holder, upon exercise, to receive a number of ordinary shares, or cash (or a combination of our ordinary shares and cash) determined by reference to appreciation, from and after the date of grant, in the fair market value of an ordinary share over the measurement price. The 2020 Plan provides that the measurement price of an SAR may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of our ordinary shares on the date the SAR is granted (provided, however, that if our board of directors approves the grant of an SAR effective as of a future date, the measurement price may not be less than 100% of the fair market value on such future date) and that SARs may not be granted with a term in excess of 10 years. No SAR granted under the 2020 Plan may contain any provision entitling the participant to the automatic grant of additional SARs in connection with any exercise of the original SAR nor may any SAR granted under the 2020 Plan provide for the payment or accrual of dividend equivalents.

        Limitation on Repricing of Options and SARs.    With respect to options and SARs, unless such action is approved by our shareholders or otherwise permitted under the terms of the 2020 Plan in connection with certain changes in capitalization and reorganization events, we may not (1) amend any outstanding option or SAR granted under the 2020 Plan to provide an exercise price or measurement price per share that is lower than the then-current exercise price or measurement price per share of such outstanding option or SAR, (2) cancel any outstanding option or SAR (whether or not granted under the 2020 Plan) and grant in substitution therefor new awards under the 2020 Plan (other than certain substitute awards described above) covering the same or a different number of ordinary shares and having an exercise price or measurement price per share lower than the then-current exercise price or measurement price per share of the canceled option or SAR, (3) cancel in exchange for a cash payment any outstanding option or SAR with an exercise price or measurement price per share above the then-current fair market value of an ordinary share of ours, or (4) take any other action under the 2020 Plan that constitutes a "repricing" within the meaning of the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market.

        Restricted Shares.    Restricted shares entitle recipients to acquire ordinary shares, subject to our right to repurchase all or part of such shares at their issue price or other stated or formula price (or to require forfeiture of such shares if issued at no cost) in the event that the conditions specified in the applicable award are not satisfied prior to the end of the applicable restriction period established for such award. Unless otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement, any dividend declared and paid by us with respect to restricted shares will be paid to the participant only if and when such shares become free from any applicable restrictions on transferability and forfeitability.

43

        Restricted Share Unit Awards.    RSUs entitle the recipient to receive ordinary shares, or cash equal to the fair market value of such shares, to be delivered at the time such award vests pursuant to the terms and conditions established by our board of directors. Our board of directors may provide that settlement of an RSU will be deferred, on a mandatory basis or at the election of the participant in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code. A participant has no voting rights with respect to any RSU. Our board may provide that a grant of RSUs may provide the participant with the right to receive an amount equal to any dividends or other distributions declared and paid on an equal number of outstanding ordinary shares. Any such dividend equivalents may be paid currently or credited to an account for the participant, may be settled in cash and/or ordinary shares and will be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and forfeitability as the RSUs with respect to which such dividend equivalents are paid, in each case to the extent provided in the award agreement.

        Other Share-Based Awards and Other Cash-Based Awards.    Under the 2020 Plan, our board of directors may grant other awards of ordinary shares, and other awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on, ordinary shares or other property, having such terms and conditions as our board of directors may determine. We refer to these types of awards as other share-based awards. Other share-based awards may be available as a form of payment in settlement of other awards granted under the 2020 Plan or as payment in lieu of compensation to which a participant is otherwise entitled. Other share-based awards may be paid in ordinary shares or in cash, as our board of directors may determine. Our board may also grant awards under the 2020 Plan that are denominated in, or settled in, cash rather than in ordinary shares, having such terms and conditions as our board of directors may determine. We refer to these types of awards as other cash-based awards. The award agreement for an other share-based award or an other cash-based award may provide participants with the right to receive dividend equivalents. Such dividend equivalents may be paid currently or credited to an account for the participant, may be settled in cash and/or ordinary shares and will be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and forfeitability as the other share-based award or other cash-based award with respect to which it is paid, in each case to the extent provided in the award agreement.

        Performance Awards.    Awards under the 2020 Plan may be made subject to the achievement of performance goals. We refer to such awards as performance awards. For any such award, the board may specify that the degree of granting, vesting and/or payout of an award will be subject to the achievement of one or more objective performance measures, which will be based on the relative or absolute attainment of specified levels of one or any combination of the following, which may be determined pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles, or GAAP or on a non-GAAP basis, as determined by the board: net income, earnings before or after discontinued operations, interest, taxes, depreciation and/or amortization, operating profit before or after discontinued operations and/or taxes, sales, sales growth, earnings growth, cash flow or cash position, gross margins, share price, market share, return on sales, assets, equity or investment, improvement of financial ratings, achievement of balance sheet or income statement objectives, total shareholder return or any other performance measure selected by the board.

        Such performance goals may reflect absolute entity or business unit performance or a relative comparison to the performance of a peer group of entities or other external measure of the selected performance criteria and may be absolute in their terms or measured against or in relationship to other companies comparably, similarly or otherwise situated. The board may specify that such performance measures will be adjusted to exclude any one or more of (i) non-recurring or unusual gains or losses, (ii) gains or losses on the dispositions of discontinued operations, (iii) the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles, (iv) the writedown of any asset, (v) fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, (vi) charges for restructuring and rationalization programs or (vii) any other adjustment determined by the board. Such performance measures (x) may vary by participant and may be different for different awards, (y) may be particular to a participant or the department, branch, line of business,

44

subsidiary or other unit in which the participant works and may cover such period as may be specified by the board, and (z) will be set by the board at such time as it may determine, in its discretion. The board may adjust upwards or downwards, the number of shares or cash payable pursuant to such a performance award, and the board may waive the achievement of applicable performance measures in any circumstance, including in the case of the death or disability of the participant or a change in control of us. In addition, the board may impose such other restrictions on performance awards as it may deem necessary or appropriate.

Transferability of Awards

        Awards may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by granted participant, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, other than in the case of an incentive share option, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order. During the life of the participant, awards are exercisable only by the participant. However, except with respect to awards that are subject to Section 409A, our board of directors may permit or provide in an award for the gratuitous transfer of the award by the participant to or for the benefit of any immediate family member, family trust or other entity established for the benefit of the participant and/or an immediate family member thereof if, with respect to such proposed transferee, we would be eligible to use a Form S-8 for the registration of the sale of the ordinary shares subject to such award under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Further, we are not required to recognize any such transfer until such time as the permitted transferee has, as a condition to such transfer, delivered to us a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to us confirming that such transferee will be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the award. Nothing in the 2020 Plan restricts a participant from making a transfer to us.

Eligibility to Receive Awards

        All of our employees and officers, as well as our consultants, advisors and non-employee directors pursuant to the terms of a sub-plan established under the 2020 Plan, are eligible to receive awards under the 2020 Plan. However, incentive share options may only be granted to our employees, employees of our present or future parent or subsidiary corporations, and employees of any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive incentive share options under the Code.

Plan Benefits

        Approximately 96 persons are eligible to receive awards under the 2020 Plan, including the Company's 84 employees (excluding officers), 6 officers (all of whom are also employees), 6 directors (excluding the CEO, who is an officer), no consultants and no advisors.

        The granting of awards under the 2020 Plan is discretionary, and we cannot now determine the number or type of awards to be granted in the future to any particular person or group, except that on February 6, 2020 our board of directors granted options to purchase an aggregate of 1,837,500 ordinary shares under the 2020 Plan to six employees, including our named executive officers, subject to our receipt of shareholder approval of the 2020 Plan at the AGM. If shareholder approval of the 2020 Plan

45

is not obtained at the AGM, the Contingent Options will convert automatically into cash-settled share appreciation rights.

        On June 2, 2020, the last reported sale price of our ordinary shares at the close of business on the Nasdaq Global Market was $0.75. Based solely on the last reported sale price of our ordinary shares on Nasdaq on June 2, 2020, and the maximum number of shares that would have been available for awards as of June 2, 2020, taking into account the approval of the 2020 Plan described herein, the maximum aggregate market value of the ordinary shares that could potentially be issued under the 2020 Plan is $15.2 million.

Administration

        The 2020 Plan will be administered by our board of directors. Our board of directors has the authority to grant awards, to adopt, amend and repeal the administrative rules, guidelines and practices relating to the 2020 Plan that it deems advisable and to construe and interpret the provisions of the 2020 Plan and any award agreements entered into under the 2020 Plan. Our board may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the 2020 Plan or any award. All actions and decisions by our board of directors will be made in our board of directors' discretion and will be final and binding on all persons having or claiming any interest in the 2020 Plan or in any award. Pursuant to the terms of the 2020 Plan, our board of directors may delegate any or all of its powers under the 2020 Plan to one or more committees or subcommittees of our board of directors.

        In addition, subject to any requirements of applicable law, our board of directors may delegate to one or more of our officers the power to grant awards (subject to any limitations under the 2020 Plan) to our employees or officers and to exercise such other powers under the 2020 Plan as our board of directors may determine. Our board will fix the terms of any awards to be granted by such officers, the maximum number of shares subject to awards that the officers may grant, and the time period in which such awards may be granted. No officer will be authorized to grant awards to any "executive officer" of ours (as defined by Rule 3b-7 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or, the Exchange Act) or to any "officer" of ours (as defined by Rule 16a-1 under the Exchange Act).

        Notwithstanding the foregoing, awards made under the 2020 Plan to non-employee directors will be granted and administered by a committee, all of the members of which are independent directors as defined by 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq Marketplace Rules.

46

        Subject to any applicable limitations contained in the 2020 Plan (including with respect to performance awards), our board of directors generally selects the recipients of awards and determines the following with respect to such awards:

•

the number of ordinary shares, cash or other consideration covered by awards and the terms and conditions of such awards, including the dates upon which such awards becomes exercisable or otherwise vest;

•

the exercise or measurement price of awards, if any;

•

the duration of awards; and

•

the effect on awards of a change in control of us.

        Except as otherwise provided by the 2020 Plan, each award under the 2020 Plan may be made alone or in addition or in relation to any other award. The terms of each award need not be identical, and our board of directors need not treat participants uniformly. Our board will determine the effect on an award of the disability, death, termination or other cessation of employment, office or services, authorized leave of absence or other change in the employment or other status of a participant, and the extent to which, and the period during which, the participant (or the participant's legal representative, conservator, guardian or designated beneficiary) may exercise rights, or receive any benefits, under the award.

        Notwithstanding any other provision of the 2020 Plan, (a) we are not obliged to issue any ordinary shares pursuant to an award unless at least the par value of such newly issued ordinary share has been fully paid in advance in accordance with all applicable law (which requirement may mean the holder of an award is obliged to make such payment) and (b) we are not obligated to deliver any ordinary shares pursuant to the 2020 Plan or to remove restrictions from shares previously issued or delivered under the 2020 Plan until (i) all conditions of the award have been met or removed to our satisfaction, (ii) in the opinion of our counsel, all other legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of such shares have been satisfied, including any applicable securities laws and regulations and any applicable stock exchange or stock market rules and regulations, and (iii) the participant has executed and delivered to us such representations or agreements as we may consider appropriate to satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws, rules or regulations.

        Our board of directors may at any time provide that any award granted under the 2020 Plan shall become immediately exercisable in whole or in part, free from some or all restrictions or conditions or otherwise realizable in whole or in part, as the case may be.

        In the event of any alternation or reorganization whatsoever taking place in our capital structure whether by way of share split, reverse share split, share dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, reclassification of shares, spin-off or other similar change in capitalization or event, or any dividend or distribution to holders of our ordinary shares, other than an ordinary cash dividend, we are required to make equitable adjustments (or make substituted awards, as applicable), in the manner determined by our board of directors, to (i) the number and class of securities available under the 2020 Plan, (ii) the share counting rules, (iii) the number and class of securities and exercise price per share of each outstanding option, (iv) the share- and per-share provisions and the measurement price of each outstanding SAR, (v) the number of shares subject to and the repurchase price per share subject to each outstanding award of restricted shares, and (vi) the share-and per-share-related provisions and the purchase price, if any, of each outstanding RSU and each other share-based award.

        We will, subject to applicable law and the terms of our constitutional documents, indemnify and hold harmless each director, officer, employee or agent to whom any duty or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the 2020 Plan has been or will be delegated against any cost or expense (including attorneys' fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with our

47

board of directors' approval) arising out of any act or omission to act concerning the 2020 Plan unless arising out of such person's own fraud or bad faith.

        In accepting an award granted under the 2020 Plan, a participant agrees to be bound by any clawback policy that we have in effect or may adopt in future.

        Amendment of Awards.    Except as otherwise provided under the 2020 Plan with respect to repricing outstanding share options or SARs, our board of directors may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding award, including but not limited to, substituting therefor another award of the same or a different type, changing the date of exercise or realization, and converting an incentive share option to a nonstatutory share option, provided that the participant's consent to any such action will be required unless our board of directors determines that the action, taking into account any related action, does not materially and adversely affect the participant's rights under the 2020 Plan or the change is otherwise permitted under the terms of the 2020 Plan in connection with a change in capitalization or reorganization event.

Reorganization Events

        The 2020 Plan contains provisions addressing the consequences of any reorganization event. A reorganization event is defined under the 2020 Plan as (a) any merger or consolidation of us with or into another entity as a result of which all of our ordinary shares are converted into or exchanged for the right to receive cash, securities or other property, or are cancelled, (b) any transfer or disposition of all of our ordinary shares for cash, securities or other property pursuant to a share exchange or other transaction or (c) our liquidation or dissolution; any one of which, (a), (b) or (c), may be effected pursuant to the laws of the Republic of Ireland.

        Consequences of Reorganization Event on Awards Other than Restricted Shares.    Under the 2020 Plan, if a reorganization event occurs, our board of directors may take any one or more of the following actions as to all or any (or any portion of) outstanding awards other than restricted shares on such terms as our board of directors determines (except to the extent specifically provided otherwise in an applicable award agreement or another agreement between a participant and us): (1) provide that such awards will be assumed, or substantially equivalent awards will be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof), (2) upon written notice to a participant, provide that all of the participant's unvested awards will be forfeited immediately prior to the consummation of such reorganization event and/or that all of the participant's unexercised awards will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such reorganization event unless exercised by the participant (to the extent then exercisable) within a specified period following the date of such notice, (3) provide that outstanding awards will become exercisable, realizable, or deliverable, or restrictions applicable to an award will lapse, in whole or in part prior to or upon such reorganization event, (4) in the event of a reorganization event under the terms of which holders of our ordinary shares will receive, upon consummation thereof, a cash payment for each share surrendered in the reorganization event, which we refer to as the Acquisition Price, make or provide for a cash payment to participants with respect to each award held by a participant equal to (A) the number of ordinary shares subject to the vested portion of the award (after giving effect to any acceleration of vesting that occurs upon or immediately prior to such reorganization event) multiplied by (B) the excess, if any, of (I) the Acquisition Price over (II) the exercise, measurement or purchase price of such award and any applicable tax withholdings, in exchange for the termination of such award, (5) provide that, in connection with our liquidation or dissolution, awards will convert into the right to receive liquidation proceeds (if applicable, net of the exercise, measurement or purchase price thereof and any applicable tax withholdings) and (6) any combination of the foregoing. Our board is not obligated to treat all awards, all awards held by a participant, or all awards of the same type, identically.

48

        The 2020 Plan also provides, however, that for RSUs that are subject to Section 409A of the Code: (A) if the applicable RSU agreement provides that the RSUs will be settled upon a "change in control event" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(i), and the reorganization event constitutes such a "change in control event," then no assumption or substitution of the RSU will be permitted, and the RSUs will instead be settled in accordance with the terms of the applicable RSU agreement; and (B) our board of directors may only undertake the actions set forth in clauses (3), (4) or (5) above if the reorganization event is a "change in control event" as so defined under the Treasury Regulation and such action is permitted or required by Section 409A of the Code. If the reorganization event does not constitute a "change in control event" as defined in the Treasury Regulation or such action is not permitted or required by Section 409A of the Code, and the acquiring or succeeding corporation does not assume or substitute the RSUs pursuant to clause (1) above, then the unvested RSUs will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of the reorganization event without any payment in exchange therefor.

        Consequences of Reorganization Event on Restricted Shares.    Upon the occurrence of a reorganization event other than our liquidation or dissolution, our repurchase and other rights with respect to outstanding restricted shares will inure to the benefit of our successor and will, unless our board of directors determines otherwise, apply to the cash, securities or other property which our ordinary shares were converted into or exchanged for pursuant to such reorganization event in the same manner and to the same extent as they applied to such restricted shares. However, our board of directors may provide for termination or deemed satisfaction of such repurchase or other rights under the instrument evidencing any restricted shares or any other agreement between a participant and us, either initially or by amendment, or provide for forfeiture of such restricted shares if issued at no cost. Upon the occurrence of a reorganization event involving our liquidation or dissolution, except to the extent specifically provided to the contrary in the instrument evidencing any award of restricted shares or any other agreement between the participant and us, all restrictions and conditions on all restricted shares then outstanding will automatically be deemed terminated or satisfied.

Authorization of Sub-Plans

        Our board may from time to time establish one or more sub-plans under the 2020 Plan for purposes of satisfying applicable securities, tax or other laws of various jurisdictions. Our board will establish such sub-plans by adopting supplements to the 2020 Plan containing any limitations on our board of directors' discretion under the 2020 Plan as our board of directors deems necessary or desirable or any additional terms and conditions not otherwise inconsistent with the 2020 Plan that our board of directors deems necessary or desirable. All supplements adopted by our board of directors will be deemed to be part of the 2020 Plan, but each supplement will apply only to participants within the affected jurisdiction.

Amendment or Termination

        Our board may amend, suspend or terminate the 2020 Plan or any portion thereof at any time, except that (i) no amendment that would require shareholder approval under the rules of the national securities exchange on which we then maintain our primary listing may be made effective unless and until such amendment has been approved by our shareholders and (ii) if the national securities exchange on which we then maintain our primary listing does not have rules regarding when shareholder approval of amendments to equity compensation plans is required (or if our ordinary shares are not then listed on any national securities exchange), then no amendment to the 2020 Plan (A) materially increasing the number of shares authorized under the 2020 Plan (other than pursuant to terms of the 2020 Plan), (B) expanding the types of awards that may be granted under the 2020 Plan, or (C) materially expanding the class of participants eligible to participate in the 2020 Plan will be effective unless and until our shareholders approve such amendment. If at any time the approval of our

49

shareholders is required as to any other modification or amendment under Section 422 of the Code or any successor provision with respect to incentive share options, our board of directors may not effect such modification or amendment without such approval. Unless otherwise specified in the amendment, any amendment to the 2020 Plan adopted in accordance with the procedures described above will apply to, and be binding on the holders of, all awards outstanding under the 2020 Plan at the time the amendment is adopted, provided that our board of directors determines that such amendment, taking into account any related action, does not materially and adversely affect the rights of participants under the 2020 Plan.

Effective Date and Term of Plan

        The 2020 Plan will become effective on the date the 2020 Plan is approved by the our shareholders; provided, however, that to the extent the shareholders do not approve the 2020 Plan, any awards granted under the 2020 Plan that are settleable in cash will remain outstanding and may in the future be granted, with the 2020 Plan remaining effective to the extent necessary to govern the administration of such awards; provided, further, for the avoidance of doubt that if shareholder approval is not obtained within 12 months from the date that the board adopts the 2020 Plan, no incentive share options may be granted under the 2020 Plan. No awards shall be granted under the 2020 Plan after the expiration of 10 years from the effective date, but awards previously granted may extend beyond that date.

Federal Income Tax Consequences

        The following is a summary of the United States federal income tax consequences that generally will arise with respect to awards granted under the 2020 Plan. This summary is based on the federal tax laws in effect as of the date of this proxy statement. In addition, this summary assumes that all awards are exempt from, or comply with, the rules under Section 409A of the Code regarding nonqualified deferred compensation. Changes to these laws or assumptions could alter the tax consequences described below.

Incentive Share Options

        A participant will not have income upon the grant of an incentive share option. Also, except as described below, a participant will not have income upon exercise of an incentive share option if the participant has been employed by us or our corporate parent or 50% or more-owned corporate subsidiary at all times beginning with the option grant date and ending three months before the date the participant exercises the option. If the participant has not been so employed during that time, then the participant will be taxed as described below under "Nonstatutory Share Options." The exercise of an incentive share option may subject the participant to the alternative minimum tax.

        A participant will have income upon the sale of the shares acquired under an incentive share option at a profit (if sales proceeds exceed the exercise price). The type of income will depend on when the participant sells the shares. If a participant sells the shares more than two years after the option was granted and more than one year after the option was exercised, then all of the profit will be long-term capital gain. If a participant sells the shares prior to satisfying these waiting periods, then the participant will have engaged in a disqualifying disposition and a portion of the profit will be ordinary income and a portion may be capital gain. This capital gain will be long-term if the participant has held the shares for more than one year and otherwise will be short-term. If a participant sells the shares at a loss (sales proceeds are less than the exercise price), then the loss will be a capital loss. This capital loss will be long-term if the participant held the shares for more than one year and otherwise will be short-term.

50

Nonstatutory Share Options

        A participant will not have income upon the grant of a nonstatutory share option. A participant will have compensation income upon the exercise of a nonstatutory share option equal to the fair market value of the shares on the day the participant exercised the option less the exercise price. Upon sale of the shares, the participant will have capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the sales proceeds and the fair market value of the shares on the day the option was exercised. This capital gain or loss will be long-term if the participant has held the shares for more than one year and otherwise will be short-term.

Share Appreciation Rights

        A participant will not have income upon the grant of an SAR. A participant generally will recognize compensation income upon the exercise of an SAR equal to the amount of the cash and the fair market value of any shares received. Upon the sale of the shares, the participant will have capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the sales proceeds and the value of the shares on the day the SAR was exercised. This capital gain or loss will be long-term if the participant held the shares for more than one year and otherwise will be short-term.

Restricted Shares

        A participant will not have income upon the grant of restricted shares unless an election under Section 83(b) of the Code is made within 30 days of the date of grant. If a timely Section 83(b) election is made, then a participant will have compensation income equal to the fair market value of the shares less the purchase price, if any. When the shares are sold, the participant will have capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the sales proceeds and the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. If the participant does not make a Section 83(b) election, then when the shares vest the participant will have compensation income equal to the fair market value of the shares on the vesting date less the purchase price. When the shares are sold, the participant will have capital gain or loss equal to the sales proceeds less the fair market value of the shares on the vesting date. Any capital gain or loss will be long-term if the participant held the shares for more than one year and otherwise will be short-term.

Restricted Share Units

        A participant will not have income upon the grant of an RSU. A participant is not permitted to make a Section 83(b) election with respect to an RSU award. When the RSU vests, the participant will have income on the vesting date in an amount equal to the fair market value of the shares on such date less the purchase price, if any. When the shares are sold, the participant will have capital gain or loss equal to the sales proceeds less the value of the shares on the vesting date. Any capital gain or loss will be long-term if the participant held the shares for more than one year and otherwise will be short-term.

Other Share-Based Awards and Other Cash-Based Awards

        The tax consequences associated with any other share-based award or any other cash-based award granted under the 2020 Plan will vary depending on the specific terms of such award. Among the relevant factors are whether or not the award has a readily ascertainable fair market value, whether or not the award is subject to forfeiture provisions or restrictions on transfer, the nature of the property to be received by the participant under the award and the participant's holding period and tax basis for the award or underlying ordinary shares.

51

Tax Consequences to Us

        There will be no tax consequences to us with respect to awards made under the 2020 Plan, except that we will be entitled to a deduction when a participant has compensation income. Any such deduction will be subject to the limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE ADOPTION OF THE 2020 SHARE INCENTIVE PLAN.

Proposal 4: To Approve a Reverse Stock Split

Background to and Reasons for the Reverse Stock Split Proposal

        Our board of directors is seeking approval for a reverse stock split with the primary purpose of increasing the price of our ordinary shares in order to meet the price criteria for continued listing on the Nasdaq Stock Market, or Nasdaq, if our board of directors determines that it is necessary to do so by implementing a reverse stock split.

        On April 29, 2020, we received written notice from Nasdaq, notifying us that, for the previous 30 consecutive business days, the bid price for our ordinary shares had closed below the minimum $1.00 per share requirement for continued inclusion on the Nasdaq Global Select Market pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1), or the Bid Price Rule. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5810(c)(3)(A), or the Compliance Period Rule, we have been provided an initial period of 180 calendar days to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. However, due to recent market conditions, Nasdaq has determined to toll the compliance period for the Bid Price Rule through June 30, 2020. As a result, the compliance period for the Bid Price Rule will be reinstated on July 1, 2020 and we will have until December 28, 2020, or the Compliance Date, to regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. To regain compliance, the closing bid price of our ordinary shares must be at least $1.00 per share for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days on or before the Compliance Date.

        If we do not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule by the Compliance Date, we may be eligible for an additional 180 calendar day compliance period. To qualify, we would need to transfer the listing of our ordinary shares to the Nasdaq Capital Market, provided that we meet the continued listing requirement for the market value of publicly held shares and all other initial listing standards, with the exception of the Bid Price Rule. To effect such a transfer, we would also need to pay an application fee to Nasdaq and provide written notice to Nasdaq of our intention to cure the deficiency during the additional compliance period.

        If we do not regain compliance with the Bid Price Rule by the Compliance Date and we are not eligible for an additional compliance period at that time, Nasdaq will provide written notification to us that our ordinary shares may be delisted. At that time, we may appeal the Nasdaq's delisting determination to a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel, or the Panel. We expect that our ordinary shares would remain listed pending the Panel's decision. There can be no assurance that, if we do appeal the delisting determination by Nasdaq to the Panel, such appeal would be successful.

        In the event we are delisted from Nasdaq, the only established trading market for our ordinary shares would be eliminated and we would be forced to list our shares on the OTC Markets or another quotation medium, depending on our ability to meet the specific listing requirements of those quotation systems. As a result, an investor would likely find it more difficult to trade, or to obtain accurate price quotations for, our shares. Delisting would likely also reduce the visibility, liquidity and value of our ordinary shares, including as a result of reduced institutional investor interest in our company, and may increase the volatility of our ordinary shares. Delisting could also cause a loss of confidence of potential industry partners, lenders and employees, which could further harm our business and our

52

future prospects. We believe that effecting a reverse stock split may, if necessary, help us avoid delisting from Nasdaq and any resulting consequences.

        Accordingly, on April 29, 2020, our board of directors unanimously approved a shareholder proposal to approve a reverse stock split of our share capital by way of the consolidation of every 10 ordinary shares of $0.01 each in the authorized but unissued and in the authorized and issued share capital of the Company into 1 ordinary share of $0.10 each and the subsequent immediate reduction in the nominal value of each of the authorized but unissued and authorized and issued ordinary shares from $0.10 each to $0.01 each, or the Reverse Stock Split. The implementation of the Reverse Stock Split is subject to and conditional upon our board of directors determining, in its sole discretion, that a reverse stock split is necessary for us to comply with the Bid Price Rule. If we have regained compliance with the Bid Price Rule within the time permitted by Nasdaq, for example, due to the increase in our share price for a minimum of 10 consecutive business days on or before the Compliance Date, our board of directors may still determine to implement the Reverse Stock Split if it considers that it would be advisable to do so in order to maintain compliance with the Bid Price Rule. However, in no event will the Reverse Stock Split occur after the date of our annual general meeting of shareholders in 2021. If our board of directors does not determine that a reverse stock split is necessary for us to comply with the Bid Price Rule prior to the date of our annual general meeting of shareholders in 2021, our board of directors will be deemed to have abandoned the Reverse Stock Split.

        In addition to enabling us to comply with the Bid Price Rule, our board of directors believes that, if the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, the expected increased share price could encourage investor interest and improve the marketability of our ordinary shares to a broader range of investors, and thus enhance our liquidity. Because of the trading volatility often associated with low-priced stocks, many brokerage firms and institutional investors have internal policies and practices that either prohibit them from investing in low-priced shares or tend to discourage individual brokers from recommending low-priced shares to their customers. Additionally, because brokers' commissions on low-priced shares generally represent a higher percentage of the share price than commissions on higher-priced shares, the current share price of our ordinary shares may result in an investor paying transaction costs that represent a higher percentage of total share value than would be the case if our share price were higher. Our board of directors believes that the higher share price that may result from the Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, could enable institutional investors and brokerage firms with such policies and practices to invest in our ordinary shares.

        Although we expect that the Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, will result in an increase in the market price of our ordinary shares, the Reverse Stock Split may not result in a permanent increase in the market price of our ordinary shares, which would be dependent on many factors, including general economic, market and industry conditions and other factors detailed from time to time in the reports we file with the SEC.

        In evaluating the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, our board of directors has taken into consideration negative factors associated with reverse stock splits. These factors include the negative perception of reverse stock splits held by many investors, analysts and other stock market participants, as well as the fact that the stock price of some companies that have effected reverse stock splits has subsequently declined back to pre-reverse stock split levels. In recommending the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, our board of directors determined that these potential negative factors were significantly outweighed by the potential benefits.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS MAY DECIDE NOT TO PROCEED TO IMPLEMENT THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT IN ITS SOLE DISCRETION.

53

Certain Risks Associated with the Reverse Stock Split

        There can be no assurance that the total market capitalization of our ordinary shares after the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, will be equal to or greater than the total market capitalization before the proposed Reverse Stock Split or that the per share market price of our ordinary shares following the proposed Reverse Stock Split will increase in proportion to the reduction in the number of our ordinary shares outstanding in connection with the proposed Reverse Stock Split. Also, we cannot assure you that the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, would lead to a sustained increase in the trading price of our ordinary shares. The trading price of our ordinary shares may change due to a variety of other factors, including our ability to successfully accomplish our business goals, market conditions and the market perception of our business. You should also keep in mind that the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, will not have an effect on the actual or intrinsic value of our business or a shareholder's proportional ownership in our company (subject to the treatment of fractional shares). However, should the overall value of our ordinary shares decline after the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, then the actual or intrinsic value of the ordinary shares held by you will also proportionately decrease as a result of the overall decline in value.

        Further, the liquidity of our ordinary shares may be harmed by the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, given the reduced number of shares that would be outstanding after the Reverse Stock Split, particularly if the expected increase in share price as a result of the Reverse Stock Split is not sustained. For instance, the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, may increase the number of shareholders who own odd lots (less than 100) of our ordinary shares, creating the potential for such shareholders to experience an increase in the cost of selling their shares and greater difficulty effecting sales. If the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, the resulting per-share price may nevertheless fail to attract institutional investors and may not satisfy the investing guidelines of such investors and, consequently, the trading liquidity of our ordinary shares may not improve.

        While our board of directors has proposed the Reverse Stock Split Proposal for the purpose of enabling us to bring or maintain the price of our ordinary shares above $1.00 per share in order to comply with the requirements for the continued listing of our ordinary shares on Nasdaq, if the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, there is no guarantee that the price of our ordinary shares will not decrease in the future, or that our ordinary shares will remain in compliance with Nasdaq listing standards. Additionally, there can be no guarantee that the closing bid price of our ordinary shares will remain at or above $1.00 for 10 consecutive trading days, whether following the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split or otherwise, which is required to cure our current Nasdaq listing standard deficiency.

Effect of the Reverse Stock Split

        If the Reverse Stock Split Proposal is approved by our shareholders and our board of directors determines that it is necessary to implement the Reverse Stock Split for us to comply with the Bid Price Rule, with effect from implementation of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of our authorized and issued ordinary shares will be reduced in proportion to the ratio of 10:1. As of the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, we would also adjust and proportionately decrease the number of our ordinary shares reserved for issuance upon exercise of, and adjust and proportionately increase the exercise price of, all options and warrants and other rights to acquire our ordinary shares. In addition, as of the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, we would adjust and proportionately decrease the total number of our ordinary shares that may be the subject of the future grants under our share plans. The proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, would also proportionately reduce the number of authorized and unissued ordinary shares under our memorandum and articles of association. Following the implementation of the Reverse Stock Split, we would be required to file an amended memorandum and articles of association with the Irish Companies Registration Office to reflect the Reverse Stock

54

Split. The amended memorandum and articles of association, to reflect the Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, is attached to this proxy statement as Appendix B.

        The Reverse Stock Split would, if implemented, be effected simultaneously for all of our issued and outstanding ordinary shares. The Reverse Stock Split would affect all of our shareholders uniformly and would not change any shareholder's percentage ownership interest in our company, except to the extent that the Reverse Stock Split results in any of our shareholders owning fractional shares. We will not issue any fractional shares as a result of the Reverse Stock Split and in lieu thereof, to the extent that we have the ability to aggregate and sell such shares on the market (see further below under "—Fractional Shares"), any shareholders that would otherwise be entitled to receive a fractional share will be entitled to receive a cash payment in an amount equal to the net cash proceeds attributable to the sale of such fractional entitlement following the aggregation and sale by the Company on behalf of each of the relevant shareholders of all of our ordinary shares that they would otherwise be entitled to receive, on the basis of prevailing market prices at such time. The Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, would not change the rights attaching to our ordinary shares. The Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, is not intended as, and would not have the effect of, a "going private transaction" covered by Rule 13e-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Following the Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, we would continue to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act.

        After the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, our ordinary shares will have a new Committee on Uniform Securities Identification Procedures ("CUSIP") number, which is a number used to identify our equity securities, and share certificates with the older CUSIP numbers (if any) will need to be exchanged for share certificates with the new CUSIP numbers by following the procedures described below.

        The following table sets forth (i) the number of our ordinary shares that would be authorized and issued, (ii) the number of our ordinary shares that would be reserved for issuance pursuant to outstanding options, warrants and restricted stock units, and (iii) the weighted-average exercise price of outstanding options and warrants, assuming the Reverse Stock Split were implemented as of June 2, 2020.

	Before Reverse Stock Split		Following Reverse Stock Split
Number of Ordinary Shares Authorized and Issued		142,965,483		14,295,869
Number of Ordinary Shares Reserved for Issuance Pursuant to Outstanding Options, Warrants and Restricted Stock Units		67,590,127		6,759,012
Weighted-Average Exercise Price of Outstanding Options and Warrants	$	1.52	$	15.18

        Our directors and executive officers have no substantial interests, directly or indirectly, in the matters set forth in the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, except to the extent of their ownership of our ordinary shares and securities convertible or exercisable for our ordinary shares, which shares and securities would be subject to the same proportionate adjustment in accordance with the terms of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal as all of our other outstanding ordinary shares and securities convertible into or exercisable for our ordinary shares.

Authorized Share Capital

        At the date of this proxy statement, our authorized share capital is €25,000 and $11,000,000 divided into 25,000 Euro Deferred Shares of €1.00 each, 1,000,000,000 Ordinary Shares of $0.01 each

55

and 100,000,000 Preferred Shares of $0.01 each. If the Reverse Stock Split Proposal is approved and our board of directors determines, in its sole discretion, that a reverse stock split is necessary for us to comply with the Bid Price Rule, following implementation of the Reverse Stock Split, the number of ordinary shares of our authorized share capital would decrease by approximately 900,000,000, adjusted for any fractional shares which it is necessary to cancel (see further below under "—Fractional Shares"). Consequently, our authorized share capital would be €25,000 and (approximately) $2,000,000 divided into 25,000 Euro Deferred Shares of €1.00 each, (approximately) 100,000,000 Ordinary Shares of $0.01 each and 100,000,000 Preferred Shares of $0.01 each. The Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, will not change the number of authorized Preferred Shares or Euro Deferred Shares.

Procedure for Effecting a Reverse Stock Split and Exchange of Share Certificates

        If shareholders approve the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, and our board of directors determines, in its sole discretion, that a reverse stock split is necessary for us to comply with the Bid Price Rule, we will publicly announce our intention to proceed with the Reverse Stock Split. Such announcement will specify the effective time and date of the Reverse Stock Split. Beginning at the effective time, each certificate representing ordinary shares will be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of the number of whole shares into which the shares previously represented by the certificate were combined pursuant to the Reverse Stock Split.

        Following the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, shareholders holding physical certificates would need to exchange those certificates. As we are now fully participating in the direct registration system, you will not receive a replacement physical certificate. Instead, you will receive uncertificated shares and a written confirmation from our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., indicating the whole number of uncertificated shares you own after the effect of the Reverse Stock Split and a cash payment in lieu of any fractional shares. Our ordinary shares will also receive a new CUSIP number.

        If the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, our transfer agent will advise registered shareholders of the procedures to be followed to exchange certificates in a letter of transmittal to be sent to shareholders. No written confirmations will be issued to a shareholder until the shareholder has surrendered the shareholder's outstanding certificate(s), together with the properly completed and executed letter of transmittal, to our transfer agent. Any old shares submitted for transfer, whether pursuant to a sale, other disposition or otherwise, will automatically be exchanged for new shares. Shareholders should not destroy any share certificate(s) and should not submit any certificate(s) until requested to do so.

        Certain of our registered shareholders hold some or all of their shares electronically in book-entry form with our transfer agent. These shareholders do not hold physical certificates evidencing their ownership of our ordinary shares. However, they are provided with a statement reflecting the number of our ordinary shares registered in their accounts. If a shareholder holds ordinary shares in book-entry form with our transfer agent, no action needs to be taken to receive post-Reverse Stock Split shares or payment in lieu of fractional shares, if applicable. If a shareholder is entitled to post-Reverse Stock Split shares, a transaction statement will automatically be sent to the shareholder's address of record indicating the number of our ordinary shares held following the Reverse Stock Split.

        If the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, we intend to treat shareholders holding our ordinary shares in "street name," through a broker, bank or other nominee, in the same manner as registered shareholders whose shares are registered in their names. Brokers, banks or other nominees will be instructed to effect a reverse stock split for their beneficial holders holding our ordinary shares in "street name." However, these brokers, banks or other nominees may have different procedures than registered shareholders for processing a reverse stock split. If you hold your shares with a broker, bank

56

or other nominee and if you have any questions in this regard, we encourage you to contact your nominee.

Fractional Shares

        We will not issue fractional shares in connection with the Reverse Stock Split, if implemented. Instead, we will aggregate the fractional entitlements of shareholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares because they hold a number of shares not evenly divisible by 10 or they hold less than 10 ordinary shares and, to the extent possible, sell such ordinary shares on the basis of prevailing market prices at such time. We will subsequently remit the proceeds of such sales, after deducting any applicable costs, to the shareholders who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares and such shareholders will be entitled to receive a cash payment in lieu of such fractional entitlement in an amount equal to the net cash proceeds attributable to the sale of such fractional entitlement. Each (if any) of the authorized and issued ordinary shares of $0.01 each that cannot be consolidated into 1 ordinary share of $0.10 each shall, immediately following the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, be acquired by us from the shareholders otherwise entitled thereto for no consideration and be cancelled.

No Appraisal Rights

        No action is proposed herein for which the laws of Ireland, or our constitution, provide a right to our shareholders to dissent and obtain appraisal of, or payment for, such shareholder's ordinary shares.

Reduction in the Nominal Value of the Ordinary Shares and Accounting Matters

        If the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, the nominal value per share of our ordinary shares will be consolidated from $0.01 to $0.10 and subsequently immediately reduced from $0.10 to $0.01 nominal value per share. Subject to non-material adjustments to cater for the cancellation of remaining fractional entitlements, the consolidation would not affect the total ordinary shareholders' equity on the balance sheet, although it would result in the share capital attributable to ordinary shares decreasing and the undenominated capital increasing. If the Reverse Stock Split is implemented, reported per share net income or loss and net book value would be higher because there would be fewer ordinary shares issued and outstanding and we would plan to adjust historical per share amounts set forth in our future financial statements.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split

        The following discussion is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the proposed Reverse Stock Split to us and to U.S. Holders (as defined below) that hold our ordinary shares as capital assets for U.S. federal income tax purposes (generally, property held for investment). This discussion is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, which we refer to as the Code, U.S. Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions, and published rulings and administrative pronouncements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, which we refer to as the IRS, in each case in effect as of the date of this proxy statement. These authorities may change or be subject to differing interpretations. Any such change or differing interpretation may be applied retroactively in a manner that could adversely affect a U.S. Holder. We have not sought and will not seek any rulings from the IRS regarding the matters discussed below and there can be no assurance the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position to that discussed below regarding the tax consequences of the proposed Reverse Stock Split.

        For purposes of this discussion, a "U.S. Holder" is a beneficial owner of our ordinary shares that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is or is treated as (i) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States; (ii) a corporation (or any other entity or arrangement treated as a corporation)

57

created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof, or the District of Columbia; (iii) an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or (iv) a trust if (1) its administration is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and all of its substantial decisions are subject to the control of one or more "United States persons" (within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code), or (2) it has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.

        This discussion does not address all U.S. federal income tax consequences relevant to the particular circumstances of a U.S. Holder, including the impact of the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income.

        In addition, it does not address consequences relevant to U.S. Holders that are subject to special rules, including, without limitation, financial institutions, insurance companies, real estate investment trusts, regulated investment companies, grantor trusts, tax-exempt organizations, dealers or traders in securities, commodities or currencies, shareholders who hold our ordinary shares as part of a position in a straddle or as part of a hedging, conversion or integrated transaction for U.S. federal income tax purposes, persons whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar, or U.S. Holders who actually or constructively own 10% or more of our voting stock.

        If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) is the beneficial owner of our ordinary shares, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner in the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Accordingly, partnerships (and other entities treated as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes) holding our ordinary shares and the partners in such entities should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, to them.

        In addition, the following discussion does not address the U.S. federal estate and gift tax, alternative minimum tax, or state, local and non-U.S. tax law consequences of the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented. Furthermore, the following discussion does not address any tax consequences of transactions effectuated before, after or at the same time as the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, whether or not they are in connection with the proposed Reverse Stock Split. This discussion should not be considered as tax or investment advice, and the tax consequences of the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, may not be the same for all shareholders.

Each shareholder should consult his, her or its own tax advisors concerning the particular U.S. federal tax consequences of the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, as well as the consequences arising under the laws of any other taxing jurisdiction, including any state, local or foreign tax consequences.

        Tax Consequences to the Company.    The proposed Reverse Stock Split is intended to be treated as a "recapitalization" pursuant to Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code. As a result, we should not recognize taxable income, gain or loss in connection with the proposed Reverse Stock Split.

        Tax Consequences to U.S. Holders.    A U.S. Holder generally should not recognize gain or loss upon the proposed Reverse Stock Split for U.S. federal income tax purposes, except with respect to cash received in lieu of a fractional ordinary share, as discussed below. A U.S. Holder's aggregate adjusted tax basis in the our ordinary shares received pursuant to the proposed Reverse Stock Split should equal the aggregate adjusted tax basis of our ordinary shares exchanged therefor (reduced by the amount of such basis that is allocated to any fractional ordinary share for which the U.S. Holder receives cash). The U.S. Holder's holding period in our ordinary shares received pursuant to the proposed Reverse Stock Split should include the holding period in our ordinary shares exchanged therefor. U.S. Treasury Regulations provide detailed rules for allocating the tax basis and holding period of ordinary shares surrendered in a recapitalization to shares received in the recapitalization. U.S. Holders of shares of

58

our ordinary shares acquired on different dates and at different prices should consult their tax advisors regarding the allocation of the tax basis and holding period of such shares.

        A U.S. Holder that, pursuant to the proposed Reverse Stock Split, receives cash in lieu of a fractional ordinary share should recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount of cash received and the portion of the U.S. Holder's aggregate adjusted tax basis in the ordinary shares surrendered that is allocated to such fractional share. Such capital gain or loss will be short term if the pre-Reverse Stock Split shares were held for one year or less at the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split and long term if held for more than one year.

        A U.S. Holder of our ordinary shares may be subject to information reporting and backup withholding on cash paid in lieu of a fractional share in connection with the proposed Reverse Stock Split. A U.S. Holder of our ordinary shares will be subject to backup withholding if such U.S. Holder is not otherwise exempt and such U.S. Holder does not provide its taxpayer identification number in the manner required or otherwise fails to comply with applicable backup withholding tax rules. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules may be refunded or allowed as a credit against a U.S. Holder's federal income tax liability, if any, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. U.S. Holders of our ordinary shares should consult their own tax advisors regarding their qualification for an exemption from backup withholding and the procedures for obtaining such an exemption.

        The U.S. federal income tax discussion set forth above does not discuss all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that may be relevant to a particular shareholder in light of such shareholder's circumstances and income tax situation. Accordingly, we urge you to consult with your own tax advisor with respect to all of the potential U.S. federal, state, local and foreign tax consequences to you of the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented.

Material Irish Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split

        The following is a summary of the material Irish tax consequences of the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented, for beneficial holders of our ordinary shares. The summary does not purport to be a comprehensive description of all of the tax considerations that may be relevant to each shareholder. The summary is based upon Irish tax laws and the practice of the Irish Revenue Commissioners in effect on the date of this proxy statement. Changes in law and/or administrative practice may result in alteration of the tax considerations described below, possibly with retrospective effect.

        The summary does not constitute legal or tax advice and is intended only as a general guide. The summary is not exhaustive and shareholders should consult their own tax advisors about the Irish tax consequences (and tax consequences under the laws of other relevant jurisdictions) of the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented. The summary applies only to shareholders who hold their ordinary shares as capital assets and does not apply to other categories of shareholders, such as dealers in securities, trustees, insurance companies, collective investment schemes and shareholders who acquired their ordinary shares, or who have, or who are deemed to have, acquired their ordinary shares by virtue of an Irish office or employment (performed or carried on in Ireland). Such persons may be subject to special rules.

Irish Tax on Chargeable Gains

        The current rate of tax on chargeable gains (where applicable) in Ireland is 33%.

59

Non-Irish Resident Shareholders

        Shareholders that are not resident or ordinarily resident in Ireland and who do not hold our ordinary shares in connection with a trade or business carried on by them through a branch or agency in Ireland will not be subject to Irish tax on chargeable gains as a result of the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented.

Irish Resident Shareholders

        Shareholders that are resident or ordinarily resident in Ireland for tax purposes or shareholders that hold their ordinary shares in connection with a trade or business carried on through a branch or agency in Ireland will, subject to the availability of any exemptions or reliefs, be within the charge to Irish tax on chargeable gains on the consolidation of their existing ordinary shares pursuant to the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented. Such shareholders should consult their own tax advisors on the Irish tax consequences of the proposed Reverse Stock Split, if implemented.

        The proposed Reverse Stock Split will be intended, if implemented, to be treated as a "reorganization" of our share capital and, accordingly, should not result in a disposal by any such shareholder of any of our ordinary shares, except with respect to cash received in lieu of a fractional ordinary share, as discussed below. Instead the ordinary shares held after the proposed Reverse Stock Split should be treated as the same asset and as having been acquired at the same time and for the same consideration as the ordinary shares held before the Reverse Stock Split (adjusted for any part of the consideration attributable to the part disposal in respect of the receipt of cash in lieu of a fractional ordinary share).

        The receipt by such a shareholder of any cash in lieu of a fractional ordinary share should be treated as a part disposal of his or her ordinary shares for Irish tax on chargeable gains in respect of the cash consideration received.

Stamp Duty

        The rate of stamp duty (where applicable) on transfers of shares of Irish incorporated companies is 1% of the price paid or the market value of the shares acquired, whichever is greater. Irish stamp duty should not arise as a result of the Reverse Stock Split, if implemented.

THE IRISH TAX CONSIDERATIONS SUMMARIZED ABOVE ARE FOR GENERAL INFORMATION ONLY. HOLDERS OF OUR ORDINARY SHARES SHOULD CONSULT WITH THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT, IF IMPLEMENTED, IN IRELAND.

Proposed Resolution

        In light of the foregoing, the Board recommends that you vote in favor of the following resolution at the AGM:

        RESOLVED, as an ordinary resolution, subject to and conditional upon the board of directors of the Company determining, in its sole discretion, at any time prior to the 2021 annual general meeting of the Company, that the reverse stock split is necessary for the Company to comply with the minimum $1.00 per share requirement pursuant to Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) (the Bid Price Rule):

i.

That every 10 authorized but unissued ordinary shares of $0.01 each (nominal value) in the capital of the Company be consolidated with effect from such time and date as shall be determined by the board of directors of the Company (the "Effective Time") into 1 ordinary share of $0.10 (nominal value) each in the capital of the Company, provided that, where such consolidation would otherwise result in a fraction of an unissued consolidated ordinary share

60

of $0.10 (nominal value) each, the number of existing unissued ordinary shares of $0.01 each (nominal value) that would otherwise constitute such fraction be cancelled, with effect from the Effective Time, pursuant to section 83(1)(f)(ii) of the Irish Companies Act 2014;

ii.

That every 10 authorized and issued ordinary shares of $0.01 each (nominal value) in the capital of the Company be consolidated, with effect from the Effective Time, into 1 ordinary share of $0.10 (nominal value) each, provided that, (1) where such consolidation would otherwise result in a shareholder being entitled to a fraction of an ordinary share of $0.10 (nominal value) each, such fraction shall, so far as possible, be aggregated and consolidated with the fractions of a consolidated ordinary share of $0.10 (nominal value) each to which other shareholders would otherwise be entitled and the board of directors of the Company be authorized to sell (or appoint any other person to sell) to any person, on behalf of the relevant shareholders, all the consolidated ordinary shares representing such fractions at the best price reasonably obtainable, (2) the net proceeds of any such sale shall be remitted in due proportion to the shareholders who would have been entitled to the fractions, (3) any director of the Company (or any person appointed by the board of directors of the Company) be authorized to execute an instrument of transfer in respect of such shares on behalf of the relevant shareholders and to do all acts and things the directors consider necessary or desirable to effect the transfer of such shares to, or in accordance with the directions of, any buyer of any such share; and (4) each (if any) of the authorized and issued ordinary shares of $0.01 (nominal value) each that cannot be consolidated into 1 ordinary share of $0.10 (nominal value) each, including pursuant to (1) above be, with effect from the Effective Time, immediately acquired by the Company from the shareholders otherwise entitled thereto for no consideration. The existing ordinary shares so acquired shall be cancelled and the issued share capital of the Company shall be reduced by the nominal value of the existing ordinary shares so acquired and cancelled and any director of the Company (or any person appointed by the board of directors of the Company) be and is hereby authorized to execute an instrument of transfer (if necessary) in respect of such shares on behalf of the shareholders of the Company concerned and to do all acts and things that the directors consider necessary or desirable to effect the acquisition and cancellation of such shares; and



iii.

That the nominal value of each of the authorized but unissued ordinary shares of $0.10 (nominal value) each in the capital of the Company and the nominal value of each of the authorized and issued ordinary shares of $0.10 (nominal value) each in the capital of the Company resulting from the foregoing resolutions, be reduced, with effect from immediately after the Effective Time, from $0.10 each to $0.01 each pursuant to section 83(1)(d) of the Irish Companies Act 2014.

Vote Required and Board of Directors Recommendation

        The affirmative vote of the holders of ordinary shares representing a majority of the votes cast on the matter and voting affirmatively or negatively is required for the approval of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE REVERSE STOCK SPLIT PROPOSAL.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

        The following table sets forth information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our ordinary shares as of June 2, 2020 by:

•

each of our directors and director nominees;

•

each of our "named executive officers";

•

all of our directors and executive officers as a group; and

•

each person, or group of affiliated persons, who is known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of our ordinary shares.

        The percentages in the columns entitled "Percentage of Shares Beneficially Owned" are based on a total of 142,965,483 ordinary shares outstanding as of June 2, 2020.

        Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to our ordinary shares. Our ordinary shares subject to options or RSUs that may be acquired within 60 days of June 2, 2020 are considered outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding the options for the purpose of calculating the percentage ownership of that person but not for the purpose of calculating the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as otherwise noted, the persons and entities in this table have sole voting and investing power with respect to all of the ordinary shares beneficially owned by them, subject to community property laws, where applicable. Except as otherwise set forth below, the address of the beneficial owner is c/o Nabriva Therapeutics plc, 25-28 North Wall Quay, Dublin 1, Ireland.

Based solely on information provided in a Schedule 13G filed by FMR LLC on February 7, 2020 and a TR-1 Notification sent to us on June 3, 2020 by FMR LLC. Abigail P. Johnson is a Director, the Chairman and the Chief Executive Officer of FMR LLC. Members of the Johnson family, including Abigail P. Johnson, are the predominant owners, directly or through trusts, of Series B voting common shares of FMR LLC, representing 49% of the voting power of FMR LLC. The Johnson family group and all other Series B shareholders have entered into a shareholders' voting agreement under which all Series B voting common shares will be voted in accordance with the majority vote of Series B voting common shares. Accordingly, through their ownership of voting common shares and the execution of the shareholders' voting agreement, members of the Johnson family may be deemed, under the Investment Company Act of 1940, to form a controlling group with respect to FMR LLC. Neither FMR LLC nor Abigail P. Johnson has the sole power to vote or direct the voting of the shares owned directly by the various investment companies registered under the Investment Company Act ("Fidelity Funds") advised by Fidelity Management & Research Company ("FMR Co"), a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR LLC, which power resides with the Fidelity Funds' Boards of Trustees. FMR Co carries out the voting of the shares under written guidelines established by the Fidelity Funds' Boards of Trustees. FMR LLC reports that it holds sole dispositive power with respect to 14,292,619 shares. The address of FMR LLC is 245 Summer Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02210.

OTHER MATTERS

        Our board of directors does not know of any other matters that may come before the AGM. However, if any other matters are properly presented to the AGM, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote, or otherwise act, in accordance with their judgment on such matters.

Solicitation of Proxies

This proxy is solicited on behalf of our board of directors. We will bear the expenses connected with this proxy solicitation. We expect to pay banks, brokers and other nominees their reasonable expenses for forwarding proxy materials and annual reports to principals and obtaining their voting instructions. In addition to the use of the mails, our directors, officers and employees may, without additional remuneration, solicit proxies in person or by use of other communications media.

Householding of Annual and Extraordinary Meeting Materials

        Some banks, brokers and other nominee record holders may be participating in the practice of "householding" proxy statements and annual reports.

NABRIVA THERAPEUTICS plc

2020 SHARE INCENTIVE PLAN

1.    Purpose

        The purpose of this 2020 Share Incentive Plan (the "Plan") of Nabriva Therapeutics plc, a public limited company organized under the laws of the Republic of Ireland (the "Company"), is to advance the interests of the Company's shareholders by enhancing the Company's ability to attract, retain and motivate persons who are expected to make important contributions to the Company and by providing such persons with equity ownership opportunities and performance-based incentives that are intended to better align the interests of such persons with those of the Company's shareholders. Except where the context otherwise requires, the term "Company" shall include any of the Company's present or future parent or subsidiary corporations as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and any regulations thereunder (the "Code") and any other business venture (including, without limitation, joint venture or limited liability company) in which the Company has a controlling interest, as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board").

2.    Eligibility

        All of the Company's employees, as well as any non-employee service providers solely to the extent approved by the Board and set forth in a sub-plan established pursuant to Section 12(e) hereof, are eligible to be granted Awards (as defined below) under the Plan. Each person who is granted an Award under the Plan, including any sub-plan of the Plan, is deemed a "Participant." The Plan provides for the following types of awards, each of which is referred to as an "Award": Options (as defined in Section 5), SARs (as defined in Section 6), Restricted Shares (as defined in Section 7), RSUs (as defined in Section 7) and Other Share-Based and Other Cash-Based Awards (as defined in Section 8). Except as otherwise provided by the Plan, each Award may be made alone or in addition or in relation to any other Award. The terms of each Award need not be identical, and the Board need not treat Participants uniformly.

3.    Administration and Delegation

        (a)    Administration by Board of Directors.     The Plan will be administered by the Board. The Board shall have authority to grant Awards and to adopt, amend and repeal such administrative rules, guidelines and practices relating to the Plan as it shall deem advisable. The Board may construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and any Award agreements entered into under the Plan. The Board may correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Plan or any Award. All actions and decisions by the Board with respect to the Plan and any Awards shall be made in the Board's discretion and shall be final and binding on all persons having or claiming any interest in the Plan or in any Award.

        (b)    Appointment of Committees.     To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board may delegate any or all of its powers under the Plan to one or more committees or subcommittees of the Board (a "Committee"). All references in the Plan to the "Board" shall mean the Board or a Committee of the Board or the officers referred to in Section 3(c) to the extent that the Board's powers or authority under the Plan have been delegated to such Committee or officers.

        (c)    Delegation to Officers.     Subject to any requirements of applicable law, the Board may delegate to one or more officers of the Company the power to grant Awards (subject to any limitations under the Plan) to employees or officers of the Company and to exercise such other powers under the Plan as the Board may determine, provided that the Board shall fix the terms of Awards to be granted by such officers, the maximum number of shares subject to Awards that the officers may grant, and the time

A-1

period in which such Awards may be granted; and provided further, that no officer shall be authorized to grant Awards to any "executive officer" of the Company (as defined by Rule 3b-7 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")) or to any "officer" of the Company (as defined by Rule 16a-1(f) under the Exchange Act).

4.    Shares Available for Awards

        (a)    Number of Shares; Share Counting.     

        (1)    Authorized Number of Shares.    Subject to adjustment under Section 10, Awards may be made under the Plan (any or all of which Awards may be in the form of Incentive Share Options (as defined in Section 5(b)) for up to 1,837,500 ordinary shares of the Company (the "Ordinary Shares"). Ordinary Shares issued under the Plan may consist in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares.

        (2)    Share Counting.    For purposes of counting the number of shares available for the grant of Awards under the Plan under this Section 4(a):

        (A)  all Ordinary Shares covered by SARs shall be counted against the number of shares available for the grant of Awards under the Plan; provided, however, that (i) SARs that may be settled only in cash shall not be so counted and (ii) if the Company grants a SAR in tandem with an Option for the same number of Ordinary Shares and provides that only one such Award may be exercised (a "Tandem SAR"), only the shares covered by the Option, and not the shares covered by the Tandem SAR, shall be so counted, and the expiration of one in connection with the other's exercise will not restore shares to the Plan;

        (B)  if any Award (i) expires or is terminated, surrendered or cancelled without having been fully exercised or is forfeited in whole or in part (including as the result of Ordinary Shares subject to such Award being repurchased by the Company at the original issuance price pursuant to a contractual repurchase right) or (ii) results in any Ordinary Shares not being issued (including as a result of a SAR that was settleable either in cash or in shares actually being settled in cash), the unused Ordinary Shares covered by such Award shall again be available for the grant of Awards; provided, however, that (1) in the case of Incentive Share Options, the foregoing shall be subject to any limitations under the Code, (2) in the case of the exercise of a SAR, the number of shares counted against the shares available under the Plan shall be the full number of shares subject to the SAR multiplied by the percentage of the SAR actually exercised, regardless of the number of shares actually used to settle such SAR upon exercise and (3) the shares covered by a Tandem SAR shall not again become available for grant upon the expiration or termination of such Tandem SAR;

        (C)  Ordinary Shares delivered (either by actual delivery, attestation, or net exercise) to the Company by a Participant to (i) purchase Ordinary Shares upon the exercise of an Award or (ii) satisfy tax withholding obligations with respect to Awards (including shares retained from the Award creating the tax obligation) shall not be added back to the number of shares available for the future grant of Awards; and

        (D)  Ordinary Shares repurchased by the Company on the open market using the proceeds from the exercise of an Award shall not increase the number of shares available for future grant of Awards.

        (b)    Substitute Awards.     In connection with a merger or consolidation of an entity with the Company or the acquisition by the Company of property or shares of an entity, the Board may grant Awards in substitution for any options or other shares or share-based awards granted by such entity or an affiliate thereof. Substitute Awards may be granted on such terms as the Board deems appropriate in the circumstances, notwithstanding any limitations on Awards contained in the Plan. Substitute

A-2

Awards shall not count against the overall share limit set forth in Section 4(a)(1), except as may be required by reason of Section 422 and related provisions of the Code.

5.    Share Options

        (a)    General.     The Board may grant options to purchase Ordinary Shares (each, an "Option") and determine the number of Ordinary Shares to be covered by each Option, the exercise price of each Option and the conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of each Option, including conditions relating to applicable federal or state securities laws, as the Board considers necessary or advisable.

        (b)    Incentive Share Options.     An Option that the Board intends to be an "incentive share option" as defined in Section 422 of the Code (an "Incentive Share Option") shall only be granted to employees of Nabriva Therapeutics plc, any of Nabriva Therapeutics plc's present or future parent or subsidiary corporations as defined in Sections 424(e) or (f) of the Code, and any other entities the employees of which are eligible to receive Incentive Share Options under the Code, and shall be subject to and shall be construed consistently with the requirements of Section 422 of the Code. An Option that is not intended to be an Incentive Share Option shall be designated a "Nonstatutory Share Option." The Company shall have no liability to a Participant, or any other person, if an Option (or any part thereof) that is intended to be an Incentive Share Option is not an Incentive Share Option or if the Company converts an Incentive Share Option to a Nonstatutory Share Option.

        (c)    Exercise Price.     The Board shall establish the exercise price of each Option or the formula by which such exercise price will be determined provided that in all cases it will not be less than the nominal value of an Ordinary Share. The exercise price shall be specified in the applicable Option agreement which may be electronic. The exercise price shall be not less than 100% of the Grant Date Fair Market Value (as defined below) of the Ordinary Shares on the date the Option is granted; provided that if the Board approves the grant of an Option with an exercise price to be determined on a future date, the exercise price shall be not less than 100% of the Grant Date Fair Market Value on such future date. "Grant Date Fair Market Value" of an Ordinary Share for purposes of the Plan will be determined as follows:

        (1)   if the Ordinary Shares trade on a national securities exchange, the closing sale price (for the primary trading session) on the date of grant; or

        (2)   if the Ordinary Shares do not trade on any such exchange, the average of the closing bid and asked prices on the date of grant as reported by an over-the-counter marketplace designated by the Board; or

        (3)   if the Ordinary Shares are not publicly traded, the Board will determine the Grant Date Fair Market Value for purposes of the Plan using any measure of value it determines to be appropriate (including, as it considers appropriate, relying on appraisals) in a manner consistent with the valuation principles under Code Section 409A, except as the Board may expressly determine otherwise.

        For any date that is not a trading day, the Grant Date Fair Market Value of an Ordinary Share for such date will be determined by using the closing sale price or average of the bid and asked prices, as appropriate, for the immediately preceding trading day and with the timing in the formulas above adjusted accordingly. The Board can substitute a particular time of day or other measure of "closing sale price" or "bid and asked prices" if appropriate because of exchange or market procedures or can, in its sole discretion, use weighted averages either on a daily basis or such longer period as complies with Code Section 409A.

        The Board has sole discretion to determine the Grant Date Fair Market Value for purposes of the Plan, and all Awards are conditioned on the participants' agreement that the Administrator's determination is conclusive and binding even though others might make a different determination.

A-3

        (d)    Duration of Options.     Each Option shall be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the Board may specify in the applicable Option agreement; provided, however, that no Option will be granted with a term in excess of 10 years.

        (e)    Exercise of Options.     Options may be exercised by delivery to the Company of a notice of exercise in a form (which may be electronic) approved by the Company, together with payment in full (in the manner specified in Section 5(f)) of the exercise price for the number of shares for which the Option is exercised. Ordinary Shares subject to the Option will be delivered by the Company as soon as practicable following exercise.

        (f)    Payment Upon Exercise.     Ordinary Shares purchased upon the exercise of an Option granted under the Plan shall be paid for as follows:

        (1)   in cash or by check, payable to the order of the Company;

        (2)   except as may otherwise be provided in the applicable Option agreement or approved by the Board, by (i) delivery of an irrevocable and unconditional undertaking by a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company sufficient funds to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding or (ii) delivery by the Participant to the Company of a copy of irrevocable and unconditional instructions to a creditworthy broker to deliver promptly to the Company cash or a check sufficient to pay the exercise price and any required tax withholding;

        (3)   to the extent provided for in the applicable Option agreement or approved by the Board, and subject to compliance with applicable law, by delivery (either by actual delivery or attestation) of Ordinary Shares owned by the Participant valued at their fair market value (valued in the manner determined by (or in a manner approved by) the Board), provided (i) such method of payment is then permitted under applicable law, (ii) such Ordinary Shares, if acquired directly from the Company, were owned by the Participant for such minimum period of time, if any, as may be established by the Board and (iii) such Ordinary Shares are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements;

        (4)   to the extent provided for in the applicable Nonstatutory Share Option agreement or approved by the Board, and subject to compliance with applicable law, by delivery of a notice of "net exercise" to the Company, as a result of which the Participant would receive (i) the number of shares underlying the portion of the Option being exercised, less (ii) such number of shares as is equal to (A) the aggregate exercise price for the portion of the Option being exercised divided by (B) the fair market value of an Ordinary Share (valued in the manner determined by (or in a manner approved by) the Board) on the date of exercise;

        (5)   to the extent permitted by applicable law and provided for in the applicable Option agreement or approved by the Board, by payment of such other lawful consideration as the Board may determine; or

        (6)   by any combination of the above permitted forms of payment.

        (g)    Limitation on Repricing.     Unless such action is approved by the Company's shareholders, the Company may not (except as provided for under Section 10): (1) amend any outstanding Option granted under the Plan to provide an exercise price per share that is lower than the then-current exercise price per share of such outstanding Option, (2) cancel any outstanding option (whether or not granted under the Plan) and grant in substitution therefor new Awards under the Plan (other than Awards granted pursuant to Section 4(c)) covering the same or a different number of Ordinary Shares and having an exercise price per share lower than the then-current exercise price per share of the cancelled option, (3) cancel in exchange for a cash payment any outstanding Option with an exercise price per share above the then-current fair market value of an Ordinary Share (valued in the manner determined by (or in a manner approved by) the Board), or (4) take any other action under the Plan

A-4

that constitutes a "repricing" within the meaning of the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market ("NASDAQ").

        (h)    No Reload Options.     No Option granted under the Plan shall contain any provision entitling the Participant to the automatic grant of additional Options in connection with any exercise of the original Option.

        (i)    No Dividend Equivalents.     No Option shall provide for the payment or accrual of dividend equivalents.

6.    Share Appreciation Rights

        (a)    General.     The Board may grant Awards consisting of share appreciation rights ("SARs") entitling the holder, upon exercise, to receive a number of Ordinary Shares or cash or a combination thereof (such form to be determined by the Board) determined by reference to appreciation, from and after the date of grant, in the fair market value of an Ordinary Share (valued in the manner determined by (or in a manner approved by) the Board) over the measurement price established pursuant to Section 6(b). The date as of which such appreciation is determined shall be the exercise date. The SAR agreement may be in written or electronic form.

        (b)    Measurement Price.     The Board shall establish the measurement price of each SAR and specify it in the applicable SAR agreement. The measurement price shall not be less than 100% of the Grant Date Fair Market Value of an Ordinary Share on the date the SAR is granted; provided that if the Board approves the grant of a SAR effective as of a future date, the measurement price shall be not less than 100% of the Grant Date Fair Market Value on such future date.

        (c)    Duration of SARs.     Each SAR shall be exercisable at such times and subject to such terms and conditions as the Board may specify in the applicable SAR agreement; provided, however, that no SAR will be granted with a term in excess of 10 years.

        (d)    Exercise of SARs.     SARs may be exercised by delivery to the Company of a notice of exercise in a form (which may be electronic) approved by the Company, together with any other documents required by the Board.

        (e)    Limitation on Repricing.     Unless such action is approved by the Company's shareholders, the Company may not (except as provided for under Section 10): (1) amend any outstanding SAR granted under the Plan to provide a measurement price per share that is lower than the then-current measurement price per share of such outstanding SAR, (2) cancel any outstanding SAR (whether or not granted under the Plan) and grant in substitution therefor new Awards under the Plan (other than Awards granted pursuant to Section 4(c)) covering the same or a different number of Ordinary Shares and having a measurement price per share lower than the then-current measurement price per share of the cancelled SAR, (3) cancel in exchange for a cash payment any outstanding SAR with a measurement price per share above the then-current fair market value of the Ordinary Shares (valued in the manner determined by (or in a manner approved by) the Board), or (4) take any other action under the Plan that constitutes a "repricing" within the meaning of the rules of the NASDAQ.

        (f)    No Reload SARs.     No SAR granted under the Plan shall contain any provision entitling the Participant to the automatic grant of additional SARs in connection with any exercise of the original SAR.

A-5

price (or to require forfeiture of such shares if issued at no cost) from the recipient in the event that conditions specified by the Board in the applicable Award are not satisfied prior to the end of the applicable restriction period or periods established by the Board for such Award. The Board may also grant Awards entitling the recipient to receive Ordinary Shares or cash to be delivered at the time such Award vests ("RSUs").

        (b)    Terms and Conditions for Restricted Shares and RSUs.     The Board shall determine the terms and conditions of Restricted Shares and RSUs, including the conditions for vesting and repurchase (or forfeiture) and the issue price, if any. The award agreement with respect to Restricted Shares or RSUs, as applicable, may be in written or electronic form.

        (c)    Additional Provisions Relating to Restricted Shares.     

        (1)    Dividends.    Unless otherwise provided in the applicable Award agreement, any dividends (whether paid in cash, shares or property) declared and paid by the Company with respect to Restricted Shares ("Unvested Dividends") shall be paid to the Participant only if and when such shares become free from the restrictions on transferability and forfeitability that apply to such shares. Each payment of Unvested Dividends will be made no later than the end of the calendar year in which the dividends are paid to shareholders of that class of shares or, if later, the 15th day of the third month following the lapsing of the restrictions on transferability and the forfeitability provisions applicable to the underlying Restricted Shares. No interest will be paid on Unvested Dividends.

        (2)    Share Certificates.    The Company may require that any share certificates issued in respect of Restricted Shares, as well as dividends or distributions paid on such Restricted Shares, shall be deposited in escrow by the Participant, together with a share power endorsed in blank, with the Company (or its designee). At the expiration of the applicable restriction periods, the Company (or such designee) shall deliver the certificates no longer subject to such restrictions to the Participant or if the Participant has died, to his or her Designated Beneficiary.

The Board may provide that settlement of RSUs shall be deferred, on a mandatory basis or at the election of the Participant, in a manner that complies with Section 409A of the Code or any successor provision thereto, and the regulations thereunder ("Section 409A").

        (2)    Voting Rights.    A Participant shall have no voting rights with respect to any RSUs.

        (3)    Dividend Equivalents.    The Award agreement for RSUs may provide Participants with the right to receive an amount equal to any dividends or other distributions declared and paid on an equal number of outstanding Ordinary Shares ("Dividend Equivalents"). Dividend Equivalents may be paid currently or credited to an account for the Participant, may be settled in cash and/or Ordinary Shares and shall be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and forfeitability as the RSUs with respect to which paid, in each case to the extent provided in the Award agreement. No interest will be paid on Dividend Equivalents.

A-6

8.    Other Share-Based and Other Cash-Based Awards

        (a)    General.     The Board may grant other Awards of Ordinary Shares, and other Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on, Ordinary Shares or other property ("Other Share-Based Awards"). Such Other Share-Based Awards shall also be available as a form of payment in the settlement of other Awards granted under the Plan or as payment in lieu of compensation to which a Participant is otherwise entitled. Other Share-Based Awards may be paid in Ordinary Shares or cash, as the Board shall determine. The Board may also grant Awards under the Plan that are denominated in, or settled in, cash rather than in Ordinary Shares ("Other Cash-Based Awards")

        (b)    Terms and Conditions.     Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Board shall determine the terms and conditions of each Other Share-Based Award or other Cash-Based Award, including any purchase price applicable thereto.

        (c)    Dividend Equivalents.     The Award agreement for an Other Share-Based Award or an Other Cash-Based Award may provide Participants with the right to receive Dividend Equivalents. Dividend Equivalents may be paid currently or credited to an account for the Participant, may be settled in cash and/or Ordinary Shares and shall be subject to the same restrictions on transfer and forfeitability as the Other Share-Based Award or Other Cash-Based Award with respect to which paid, in each case to the extent provided in the Award agreement. No interest will be paid on Dividend Equivalents.

9.    Performance Awards.

        (a)    Grants.     Awards under the Plan may be made subject to the achievement of performance goals pursuant to this Section 9 ("Performance Awards").

        (b)    Performance Measures.     The Board may specify that the degree of granting, vesting and/or payout of an Award shall be subject to the achievement of one or more objective performance measures, which shall be based on the relative or absolute attainment of specified levels of one or any combination of the following, which may be determined pursuant to generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") or on a non-GAAP basis, as determined by the Board: net income, earnings before or after discontinued operations, interest, taxes, depreciation and/or amortization, operating profit before or after discontinued operations and/or taxes, sales, sales growth, earnings growth, cash flow or cash position, gross margins, share price, market share, return on sales, assets, equity or investment, improvement of financial ratings, achievement of balance sheet or income statement objectives, total shareholder return or any other performance measure selected by the Board. Such goals may reflect absolute entity or business unit performance or a relative comparison to the performance of a peer group of entities or other external measure of the selected performance criteria and may be absolute in their terms or measured against or in relationship to other companies comparably, similarly or otherwise situated. The Board may specify that such performance measures shall be adjusted to exclude any one or more of (i) non-recurring or unusual gains or losses, (ii) gains or losses on the dispositions of discontinued operations, (iii) the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles, (iv) the writedown of any asset, (v) fluctuation in foreign currency exchange rates, (vi) charges for restructuring and rationalization programs or (vii) any other adjustment determined by the Board. Such performance measures: (x) may vary by Participant and may be different for different Awards; (y) may be particular to a Participant or the department, branch, line of business, subsidiary or other unit in which the Participant works and may cover such period as may be specified by the Board; and (z) shall be set by the Board at such time as it determines in its discretion.

A-7

        (c)    Adjustments.     Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan, the Board may adjust, upwards or downwards, the number of shares or cash payable pursuant to such Award, and the Board may waive the achievement of the applicable performance measures in any circumstance, including in the case of the death or disability of the Participant or a change in control of the Company.

        (d)    Other.     The Board shall have the power to impose such other restrictions on Performance Awards as it may deem necessary or appropriate.

10.    Adjustments for Changes in Ordinary Shares and Certain Other Events

        (a)    Changes in Capitalization.     In the event of any alteration or reorganization whatsoever taking place in the capital structure of the Company whether by way of share split, reverse share split, share dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, reclassification of shares, spin-off or other similar change in capitalization or event, or any dividend or distribution to holders of Ordinary Shares other than an ordinary cash dividend, (i) the number and class of securities available under the Plan, (ii) the share counting rules set forth in Section 4(a), (iii) the number and class of securities and exercise price per share of each outstanding Option, (iv) the share and per-share provisions and the measurement price of each outstanding SAR, (v) the number of shares subject to and the repurchase price per share subject to each outstanding award of Restricted Shares and (vi) the share and per-share-related provisions and the purchase price, if any, of each outstanding RSU and each Other Share-Based Award, shall be equitably adjusted by the Company (or substituted Awards may be made, if applicable) in the manner determined by the Board. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event the Company effects a split of the Ordinary Shares by means of a share dividend and the exercise price of and the number of shares subject to an outstanding Option are adjusted as of the date of the distribution of the dividend (rather than as of the record date for such dividend), then an optionee who exercises an Option between the record date and the distribution date for such share dividend shall be entitled to receive, on the distribution date, the share dividend with respect to the Ordinary Shares acquired upon such Option exercise, notwithstanding the fact that such shares were not outstanding as of the close of business on the record date for such share dividend.

        (b)    Reorganization Events.     

        (1)    Definition.    A "Reorganization Event" shall mean: (a) any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity as a result of which all of the Ordinary Shares of the Company are converted into or exchanged for the right to receive cash, securities or other property or is canceled, (b) any transfer or disposition of all of the Ordinary Shares of the Company for cash, securities or other property pursuant to a share exchange or other transaction or (c) any liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 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 Chapter 1 of Part 9 of the Companies Act 2014 of the Republic of Ireland or (B) otherwise under Part 9 of the Companies Act 2014 of the Republic of Ireland or (C) otherwise under the Companies Act 2014 of the Republic of Ireland.

        (2)    Consequences of a Reorganization Event on Awards Other than Restricted Shares.

        (A)  In connection with a Reorganization Event, the Board may take any one or more of the following actions as to all or any (or any portion of) outstanding Awards other than Restricted Shares on such terms as the Board determines (except to the extent specifically provided otherwise in an applicable Award agreement or another agreement between the Company and the Participant): (i) provide that such Awards shall be assumed, or substantially equivalent Awards shall be substituted, by the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof), (ii) upon written notice to a Participant, provide that all of the Participant's unvested Awards will be forfeited immediately prior to the consummation of such Reorganization Event and/ or that all of the Participant's unexercised Awards will terminate

A-8

immediately prior to the consummation of such Reorganization Event unless exercised by the Participant (to the extent then exercisable) within a specified period following the date of such notice, (iii) provide that outstanding Awards shall become exercisable, realizable or deliverable, or restrictions applicable to an Award shall lapse, in whole or in part prior to or upon such Reorganization Event, (iv) in the event of a Reorganization Event under the terms of which holders of Ordinary Shares will receive upon consummation thereof a cash payment for each share surrendered in the Reorganization Event (the "Acquisition Price"), make or provide for a cash payment to Participants with respect to each Award held by a Participant equal to (A) the number of Ordinary Shares subject to the vested portion of the Award (after giving effect to any acceleration of vesting that occurs upon or immediately prior to such Reorganization Event) multiplied by (B) the excess, if any, of (I) the Acquisition Price over (II) the exercise, measurement or purchase price of such Award and any applicable tax withholdings, in exchange for the termination of such Award, (v) provide that, in connection with a liquidation or dissolution of the Company, Awards shall convert into the right to receive liquidation proceeds (if applicable, net of the exercise, measurement or purchase price thereof and any applicable tax withholdings) and (vi) any combination of the foregoing. In taking any of the actions permitted under this Section 10(b)(2)(A), the Board shall not be obligated by the Plan to treat all Awards, all Awards held by a Participant, or all Awards of the same type, identically.

        (B)  Notwithstanding the terms of Section 10(b)(2)(A)(i), in the case of outstanding RSUs that are subject to Section 409A: (i) if the applicable RSU agreement provides that the RSUs shall be settled upon a "change in control event" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(i), and the Reorganization Event constitutes such a "change in control event", then no assumption or substitution shall be permitted pursuant to Section 10(b)(2)(A)(i) and the RSUs shall instead be settled in accordance with the terms of the applicable RSU agreement; and (ii) the Board may only undertake the actions set forth in clauses (iii), (iv) or (v) of Section 10(b)(2)(A) if the Reorganization Event constitutes a "change in control event" as defined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5)(i) and such action is permitted or required by Section 409A; if the Reorganization Event is not a "change in control event" as so defined or such action is not permitted or required by Section 409A, and the acquiring or succeeding corporation does not assume or substitute the RSUs pursuant to clause (i) of Section 10(b)(2)(A), then the unvested RSUs shall terminate immediately prior to the consummation of the Reorganization Event without any payment in exchange therefor.

        (C)  For purposes of Section 10(b)(2)(A)(i), an Award (other than Restricted Shares) shall be considered assumed if, following consummation of the Reorganization Event, such Award confers the right to purchase or receive pursuant to the terms of such Award, for each Ordinary Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the consummation of the Reorganization Event, the consideration (whether cash, securities or other property) received as a result of the Reorganization Event by holders of Ordinary Shares for each Ordinary Share held immediately prior to the consummation of the Reorganization Event (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Ordinary Shares); provided, however, that if the consideration received as a result of the Reorganization Event is not solely ordinary shares of the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof), the Company may, with the consent of the acquiring or succeeding corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise or settlement of the Award to consist solely of such number of ordinary shares of the acquiring or succeeding corporation (or an affiliate thereof) that the Board determined to be equivalent in value (as of the date of such determination or another

A-9

date specified by the Board) to the per share consideration received by holders of outstanding Ordinary Shares as a result of the Reorganization Event.

        (3)    Consequences of a Reorganization Event on Restricted Shares.    Upon the occurrence of a Reorganization Event other than a liquidation or dissolution of the Company, the repurchase and other rights of the Company with respect to outstanding Restricted Shares shall inure to the benefit of the Company's successor and shall, unless the Board determines otherwise, apply to the cash, securities or other property which the Ordinary Shares were converted into or exchanged for pursuant to such Reorganization Event in the same manner and to the same extent as they applied to such Restricted Shares; provided, however, that the Board may either provide for termination or deemed satisfaction of such repurchase or other rights under the instrument evidencing any Restricted Shares or any other agreement between a Participant and the Company, either initially or by amendment, or provide for forfeiture of such Restricted Shares if issued at no cost. Upon the occurrence of a Reorganization Event involving the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, except to the extent specifically provided to the contrary in the instrument evidencing any Restricted Shares or any other agreement between a Participant and the Company, all restrictions and conditions on all Restricted Shares then outstanding shall automatically be deemed terminated or satisfied.

11.    General Provisions Applicable to Awards

        (a)    Transferability of Awards.     Awards shall not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered by a Participant, either voluntarily or by operation of law, except by will or the laws of descent and distribution or, other than in the case of an Incentive Share Option, pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order, and, during the life of the Participant, shall be exercisable only by the Participant; provided, however, that, except with respect to Awards subject to Section 409A, the Board may permit or provide in an Award for the gratuitous transfer of the Award by the Participant to or for the benefit of any immediate family member, family trust or other entity established for the benefit of the Participant and/or an immediate family member thereof if the Company would be eligible to use a Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended for the registration of the sale of the Ordinary Shares subject to such Award to such proposed transferee; provided further, that the Company shall not be required to recognize any such permitted transfer until such time as such permitted transferee shall, as a condition to such transfer, deliver to the Company a written instrument in form and substance satisfactory to the Company confirming that such transferee shall be bound by all of the terms and conditions of the Award. References to a Participant, to the extent relevant in the context, shall include references to authorized transferees. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing contained in this Section 11(a) shall be deemed to restrict a transfer to the Company.

        (b)    Documentation.     Each Award shall be evidenced in such form (written, electronic or otherwise) as the Board shall determine. Each Award may contain terms and conditions in addition to those set forth in the Plan.

        (c)    Termination of Service.     The Board shall determine the effect on an Award of the disability, death, termination or other cessation of employment, authorized leave of absence or other change in the employment of a Participant and the extent to which, and the period during which, the Participant, or the Participant's legal representative, conservator, guardian or Designated Beneficiary, may exercise rights, or receive any benefits, under an Award.

        (d)    Withholding.     The Participant must satisfy all applicable federal, state, and local or other income and employment tax withholding obligations before the Company will deliver share certificates or otherwise recognize ownership of Ordinary Shares under an Award. The Company may elect to satisfy the withholding obligations through additional withholding on salary or wages. If the Company elects not to or cannot withhold from other compensation, the Participant must pay the Company the full amount, if any, required for withholding or have a broker tender to the Company cash equal to the

A-10

withholding obligations. Payment of withholding obligations is due before the Company will issue any shares on exercise, vesting or release from forfeiture of an Award or at the same time as payment of the exercise or purchase price, unless the Company determines otherwise. If provided for in an Award or approved by the Committee, a Participant may satisfy the tax obligations in whole or in part by delivery (either by actual delivery or attestation) of Ordinary Shares, including shares retained from the Award creating the tax obligation, valued at their fair market value (valued in the manner determined by (or in a manner approved by) the Company); provided, however, except as otherwise provided by the Committee, that the total tax withholding where shares are being used to satisfy such tax obligations cannot exceed the Company's minimum statutory withholding obligations (based on minimum statutory withholding rates for federal and state tax purposes, including payroll taxes, that are applicable to such supplemental taxable income), except that, to the extent that the Company is able to retain Ordinary Shares having a fair market value (determined by, or in a manner approved by, the Company) that exceeds the statutory minimum applicable withholding tax without financial accounting implications or the Company is withholding in a jurisdiction that does not have a statutory minimum withholding tax, the Company may retain such number of Ordinary Shares (up to the number of shares having a fair market value equal to the maximum individual statutory rate of tax (determined by, or in a manner approved by, the Company)) as the Company shall determine in its sole discretion to satisfy the tax liability associated with any Award. Shares used to satisfy tax withholding requirements cannot be subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting or other similar requirements.

        (e)    Amendment of Award.     Except as otherwise provided in Section 5(g) or 6(e), the Board may amend, modify or terminate any outstanding Award, including but not limited to, substituting therefor another Award of the same or a different type, changing the date of exercise or realization, and converting an Incentive Share Option to a Nonstatutory Share Option. The Participant's consent to such action shall be required unless (i) the Board determines that the action, taking into account any related action, does not materially and adversely affect the Participant's rights under the Plan or (ii) the change is permitted under Section 10.

        (f)    Conditions on Delivery of Shares.     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, (a) the Company shall not be obliged to issue any Ordinary Shares pursuant to an Award unless at least the par value of such newly issued Ordinary Share has been fully paid in advance in accordance with all applicable law (which requirement may mean the holder of an Award is obliged to make such payment) and (b) the Company will not be obligated to deliver any Ordinary Shares pursuant to the Plan or to remove restrictions from shares previously issued or delivered under the Plan until (i) all conditions of the Award have been met or removed to the satisfaction of the Company, (ii) in the opinion of the Company's counsel, all other legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of such shares have been satisfied, including any applicable securities laws and regulations and any applicable stock exchange or stock market rules and regulations, and (iii) the Participant has executed and delivered to the Company such representations or agreements as the Company may consider appropriate to satisfy the requirements of any applicable laws, rules or regulations.

        (g)    Acceleration.     The Board may at any time provide that any Award shall become immediately exercisable in whole or in part, free from some or all restrictions or conditions or otherwise realizable in whole or in part, as the case may be.

12.    Miscellaneous

        (a)    No Right To Employment.     No person shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award by virtue of the adoption of the Plan, and the grant of an Award shall not be construed as giving a Participant the right to continued employment or any other relationship with the Company. The Company expressly reserves the right at any time to dismiss or otherwise terminate its relationship with a Participant free from any liability or claim under the Plan, except as expressly provided in the applicable Award.

A-11

        (b)    No Rights As Shareholder; Clawback.     Subject to the provisions of the applicable Award, no Participant or Designated Beneficiary shall have any rights as a shareholder with respect to any Ordinary Shares to be issued with respect to an Award until becoming the record holder of such shares. In accepting an Award under the Plan, the Participant agrees to be bound by any clawback policy that the Company has in effect or may adopt in the future.

        (c)    Effective Date and Term of Plan.     The Plan shall become effective on the date the Plan is approved by the Company's shareholders (the "Effective Date"); provided, however, that to the extent the shareholders do not approve the Plan, any Awards granted hereunder that are settlable in cash shall remain outstanding and may in the future be granted, with the Plan remaining effective to the extent necessary to govern the administration of such Awards; provided, further, for the avoidance of doubt that if shareholder approval is not obtained within 12 months from the date that the Board adopts the Plan, no Incentive Stock Options may be granted under the Plan. No Awards shall be granted under the Plan after the expiration of 10 years from the Effective Date, but Awards previously granted may extend beyond that date.

        (d)    Amendment of Plan.     The Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time provided that (i) no amendment that would require shareholder approval under the rules of the national securities exchange on which the Company then maintains its primary listing may be made effective unless and until the Company's shareholders approve such amendment; and (ii) if the national securities exchange on which the Company then maintains its primary listing does not have rules regarding when shareholder approval of amendments to equity compensation plans is required (or if the Company's Ordinary Shares are not then listed on any national securities exchange), then no amendment to the Plan (A) materially increasing the number of shares authorized under the Plan (other than pursuant to Section 4(c) or 10), (B) expanding the types of Awards that may be granted under the Plan, or (C) materially expanding the class of participants eligible to participate in the Plan shall be effective unless and until the Company's shareholders approve such amendment. In addition, if at any time the approval of the Company's shareholders is required as to any other modification or amendment under Section 422 of the Code or any successor provision with respect to Incentive Share Options, the Board may not effect such modification or amendment without such approval. Unless otherwise specified in the amendment, any amendment to the Plan adopted in accordance with this Section 12(d) shall apply to, and be binding on the holders of, all Awards outstanding under the Plan at the time the amendment is adopted, provided the Board determines that such amendment, taking into account any related action, does not materially and adversely affect the rights of Participants under the Plan.

        (e)    Authorization of Sub-Plans.     The Board may from time to time establish one or more sub-plans under the Plan for purposes of satisfying applicable securities, tax or other laws of various jurisdictions. The Board shall establish such sub-plans by adopting supplements to the Plan containing (i) such limitations on the Board's discretion under the Plan as the Board deems necessary or desirable or (ii) such additional terms and conditions not otherwise inconsistent with the Plan as the Board shall deem necessary or desirable. All supplements adopted by the Board shall be deemed to be part of the Plan, but each supplement shall apply only to Participants within the affected jurisdiction and the Company shall not be required to provide copies of any supplement to Participants in any jurisdiction which is not the subject of such supplement.

        (f)    Compliance with Section 409A of the Code.     If and to the extent (i) any portion of any payment, compensation or other benefit provided to a Participant pursuant to the Plan in connection with his or her employment termination constitutes "nonqualified deferred compensation" within the meaning of Section 409A and (ii) the Participant is a specified employee as defined in Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, in each case as determined by the Company in accordance with its procedures, by which determinations the Participant (through accepting the Award) agrees that he or she is bound, such portion of the payment, compensation or other benefit shall not be paid before

A-12

the day that is six months plus one day after the date of "separation from service" (as determined under Section 409A) (the "New Payment Date"), except as Section 409A may then permit. The aggregate of any payments that otherwise would have been paid to the Participant during the period between the date of separation from service and the New Payment Date shall be paid to the Participant in a lump sum on such New Payment Date, and any remaining payments will be paid on their original schedule.

        The Company makes no representations or warranty and shall have no liability to the Participant or any other person if any provisions of or payments, compensation or other benefits under the Plan are determined to constitute nonqualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A but do not to satisfy the conditions of that section.

        (g)    Limitations on Liability.     Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan, no individual acting as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company will be liable to any Participant, former Participant, spouse, beneficiary, or any other person for any claim, loss, liability, or expense incurred in connection with the Plan, nor will such individual be personally liable with respect to the Plan because of any contract or other instrument he or she executes in his or her capacity as a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company. The Company will, subject to applicable law, and the terms of the Company's constitutional documents, indemnify and hold harmless each director, officer, employee or agent of the Company to whom any duty or power relating to the administration or interpretation of the Plan has been or will be delegated, against any cost or expense (including attorneys' fees) or liability (including any sum paid in settlement of a claim with the Board's approval) arising out of any act or omission to act concerning the Plan unless arising out of such person's own fraud or bad faith.

        (h)    Governing Law.     The provisions of the Plan and all Awards made hereunder shall be governed by, except to the extent preempted by other applicable laws (1) with respect to the corporate law requirements applicable to the Company, the validity and authorization of the issuance of Shares under the Plan and similar matters, the laws of Ireland (without reference to conflict of law principles thereof) and (2) with respect to all other matters relating to the Plan and Awards, the laws of the State of Delaware, excluding choice-of-law principles of the law of that state.

All Ordinary Shares shall rank pari passu with each other in all respects.

EURO DEFERRED SHARES

13.

The holders of the Euro Deferred Shares shall not be entitled to receive any dividend or distribution and shall not be entitled to receive notice of, nor to attend, speak or vote at, any general meeting of the Company.

16.

Neither the acquisition by the Company otherwise than for valuable consideration of all or any of the Euro Deferred Shares nor the redemption thereof nor the cancellation thereof by the Company in accordance with these Articles shall constitute a variation or abrogation of the rights or privileges attached to the Euro Deferred Shares, and accordingly the Euro Deferred Shares or any of them may be so acquired, redeemed and cancelled without any such consent or sanction on the part of the holders thereof. The rights conferred upon the holders of the Euro

B-14

Deferred Shares shall not be deemed to be varied or abrogated by the creation of further Shares ranking in priority thereto or pari passu therewith.

26.

Any document which records the name of the transferor, the name of the transferee, the class and number of Shares agreed to be transferred and the date of the agreement to transfer the Shares, shall, once executed in accordance with this Article, be deemed to be a proper instrument of transfer for the purposes of section 94 of the Companies Act.

28.4.

The transferor shall be deemed to remain the holder of the Share until the name of the transferee is entered on the Register in respect thereof, and neither the title of the transferee nor the title of the transferor shall be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the sale should the Board so determine.

28.5.

The Company, at its absolute discretion and insofar as the Companies Act or any other applicable law permits, may, or may procure that a subsidiary of the Company shall, pay Irish stamp duty arising on a transfer of Shares on behalf of the transferee of such Shares of the Company. If stamp duty resulting from the transfer of Shares in the Company which would otherwise be payable by the transferee is paid by the Company or any subsidiary of the Company on behalf of the transferee, then in those circumstances, the Company shall, on its behalf or on behalf of its subsidiary (as the case may be), be entitled, but not required, to (i) seek reimbursement of the stamp duty from the transferee, (ii) set-off the stamp duty against any dividends payable to the transferee of those Shares or (iii) claim a first and permanent lien on the Shares on which stamp duty has been paid by the Company or its subsidiary for the amount of stamp duty paid.

28.6.

Notwithstanding the provisions of these Articles and subject to any regulations made under section 1086 of the Companies Act or the 1990 Regulations (including any modification thereof or any regulations in substitution therefor made under the

B-17

Companies Act or otherwise), title to any Shares in the Company may also be evidenced and transferred without a written instrument in accordance with section 1086 of the Companies Act or any regulations made thereunder or the 1990 Regulations (including any modification thereof or any regulations in substitution therefor made under the Companies Act or otherwise). The Board shall have power to permit any class of Shares to be held in uncertificated form and to implement any arrangements they think fit for such evidencing and transfer which accord with such regulations and in particular shall, where appropriate, be entitled to disapply or modify all or part of the provisions in these Articles with respect to the requirement for written instruments of transfer and share certificates (if any), in order to give effect to such regulations.

29.

The Board may, without assigning any reason for its decision, decline to register any transfer of any Share which is not a fully paid Share. The Board may also, without assigning any reason, refuse to register a transfer of any Share unless:

29.1.

the instrument of transfer is fully and properly completed and is lodged with the Company at the registered office or at such other place as the Board or the Secretary may specify accompanied by the certificate(s) for the Shares (if any) to which it relates (which shall upon registration of the transfer be cancelled) and such other evidence as the Board may reasonably require to show the right of the transferor to make the transfer;

29.2.

the instrument of transfer is in respect of only one class of Shares;

29.3.

a registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933 (as amended) of the United States of America is in effect with respect to such transfer or such transfer is exempt from registration and, if requested by the Board, a written opinion from counsel reasonably acceptable to the Board is obtained to the effect that such transfer is exempt from registration;

29.4.

the instrument of transfer is properly stamped (in circumstances where stamping is required);

29.5.

in the case of a transfer to joint holders, the number of joint holders to which the Share is to be transferred does not exceed four;

29.6.

it is satisfied, acting reasonably, that all applicable consents, authorisations, permissions or approvals of any governmental body or agency in Ireland or any other applicable jurisdiction required to be obtained under relevant law prior to such transfer have been obtained; and

29.7.

it is satisfied, acting reasonably, that the transfer would not violate the terms of any agreement to which the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) and the transferor are party or subject.

30.

If the Board shall refuse to register a transfer of any Share, it shall, within two (2) months after the date on which the transfer was lodged with the Company, send to each of the transferor and the transferee notice of such refusal.

31.

The Company shall not be obligated to make any transfer to an individual under 18 years of age or to a person in respect of whom an order has been made by a competent court or official on the grounds that he or she is or may be suffering from mental disorder or is otherwise incapable of managing his or her affairs or under other legal disability.

32.

Upon every transfer of Shares, the certificate (if any) held by the transferor shall be given up to be cancelled, and shall forthwith be cancelled accordingly, and subject to Article 20 a new

B-18

certificate may be issued without charge to the transferee in respect of the Shares transferred to him or her, and if any of the Shares included in the certificate so given up shall be retained by the transferor, a new certificate in respect thereof may be issued to him or her without charge.

REDEMPTION AND REPURCHASE OF SHARES

33.

Subject to the provisions of Chapter 6 of Part 3 and Chapter 5 of Part 17 of the Companies Act and the other provisions of this Article 33, and without prejudice to Article 17, the Company may:

33.1.

pursuant to section 66(4) of the Companies Act, allot and issue any Shares of the Company which are to be redeemed or are liable to be redeemed at the option of the Company or the Member on such terms and in such manner as may be determined by the Board;

33.2.

redeem Shares of the Company on such terms as may be contained in, or be determined pursuant to the provisions of, these Articles. Subject as aforesaid, the Company may cancel any Shares so redeemed or may hold them as treasury shares (as defined by section 106(1) of the Companies Act) and re-issue such treasury shares as Shares of any class or classes or cancel them;

33.3.

subject to or in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act and without prejudice to any relevant special rights attached to any class of Shares, pursuant to section 105 and Chapter 5 of Part 17 of the Companies Act, acquire any of its own Shares (including any Redeemable Shares and without any obligation to acquire on any pro rata basis as between Members or Members of the same class) and may cancel any Shares so acquired or hold them as treasury shares (as defined by section 106(1) of the Companies Act) and may re-issue any such Shares as Shares of any class or classes or cancel them; or

33.4.

convert any of its Shares into Redeemable Shares provided that the total number of Shares which shall be redeemable pursuant to this authority shall not exceed the limit in section 1071(b) of the Companies Act. No resolution of Members, whether special or otherwise, shall be required to be passed to convert any of the Company's Shares into Redeemable Shares.

34.

The Company may make a payment in respect of the redemption or purchase of its own Shares in any manner permitted by the Companies Act.

35.

The holder of the Shares being redeemed or purchased shall be bound to deliver up to the Company, at its registered office or such other place as the Board shall specify, the certificate(s) (if any) thereof for cancellation and thereupon the Company shall pay to him or her the purchase or redemption monies or consideration in respect thereof.

VARIATION OF RIGHTS OF SHARES

36.

Without prejudice to the authority conferred on the Directors pursuant to Article 17 to issue Preferred Shares in the capital of the Company, if at any time the share capital of the Company is divided into different classes or series of Shares, the rights attached to any class or series (unless otherwise provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class or series) may be varied or abrogated with the consent in writing of the holders of a majority of the issued Shares of that class or series entitled to vote on such variation or abrogation, or with the sanction of an Ordinary Resolution passed at a general meeting of the holders of the Shares of that class or series.

B-19

37.

The provisions of these Articles relating to general meetings of the Company shall apply mutatis mutandis to every such general meeting of the holders of one class or series of Shares except that the necessary quorum shall be one or more persons holding or representing by proxy at least a majority of the issued Shares of the class or series.

38.

The rights conferred upon the holders of the Shares of any class or series issued with preferred or other rights shall not, unless otherwise expressly provided by the terms of issue of the Shares of that class or series, be deemed to be varied by (i) the creation or issue of further Shares ranking pari passu therewith; (ii) a purchase or redemption by the Company of its own Shares; or (iii) the creation or issue for value (as determined by the Board) of further Shares ranking as regards participation in the profits or assets of the Company or otherwise in priority to them. For the avoidance of doubt:

38.1.

the issue, redemption or purchase of any of the 25,000 Euro Deferred Shares of €1.00 each or the 100,000,000 Preferred Shares of US$0.01 each shall not constitute a variation of the rights of the holders of Ordinary Shares; and

38.2.

the issue of Preferred Shares or any class or series of Preferred Shares which rank pari passu with, or junior to, any existing Preferred Shares or class or series of Preferred Shares shall not constitute a variation of the existing Preferred Shares or class or series of Preferred Shares.

LIEN ON SHARES

39.

The Company shall have a first and paramount lien on every Share (not being a fully paid Share) for all monies (whether presently payable or not) payable at a fixed time or called in respect of that Share. The Board, at any time, may declare any Share to be wholly or in part exempt from the provisions of this Article 39. The Company's lien on a Share shall extend to all monies payable in respect of it.

40.

The Company may sell in such manner as the Board determines any Share on which the Company has a lien if a sum in respect of which the lien exists is presently payable and is not paid within fourteen (14) clear days after notice demanding payment, stating that if the notice is not complied with the Share may be sold, has been given to the holder of the Share or to the person entitled to it by reason of the death, bankruptcy or insolvency of the holder or otherwise by operation of law or regulation (whether of Ireland or otherwise).

41.

To give effect to a sale, the Board may authorise some person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Share(s) sold to, or in accordance with, the directions of the transferee. The transferee shall be entered in the Register as the holder of the Share(s) comprised in any such transfer and he or she shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase monies nor shall his or her title to the Share be affected by any irregularity in, or invalidity of, the proceedings in reference to the sale, and after the name of the transferee has been entered in the Register, the remedy of any person aggrieved by the sale shall be in damages only and against the Company exclusively.

42.

The net proceeds of the sale, after payment of the costs, shall be applied in payment of so much of the sum for which the lien exists as is presently payable and any residue (upon surrender to the Company for cancellation of the certificate for the Shares sold and subject to a like lien for any monies not presently payable as existed upon the Shares before the sale) shall be paid to the person entitled to the Shares at the date of the sale.

43.

Whenever any law for the time being of any country, state or place imposes or purports to impose any immediate or future or possible liability upon the Company to make any payment or empowers any government or taxing authority or government official to require the Company to

B-20

make any payment in respect of any Shares registered in the Register as held either jointly or solely by any Members or in respect of any dividends, bonuses or other monies due or payable or accruing due or which may become due or payable to such Member by the Company on, or in respect of, any Shares registered as mentioned above or for or on account or in respect of any Member and whether in consequence of:

(a)

the death of such Member;



(b)

the non-payment of any income tax or other tax by such Member;



(c)

the non-payment of any estate, probate, succession, death, stamp or other duty by the executor or administrator of such Member or by or out of his or her estate; or



(d)

any other act or thing;

in every such case (except to the extent that the rights conferred upon holders of any class of Shares renders the Company liable to make additional payments in respect of sums withheld on account of the foregoing):

43.1.

the Company shall be fully indemnified by such Member or his or her executor or administrator from all liability;



43.2.

the Company shall have a lien upon all dividends and other monies payable in respect of the Shares registered in the Register as held either jointly or solely by such Member for all monies paid or payable by the Company as referred to above in respect of such Shares or in respect of any dividends or other monies thereon or for or on account or in respect of such Member under or in consequence of any such law, together with interest at the rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum (or such other rate as the Board may determine) thereon from the date of payment to date of repayment, and the Company may deduct or set off against such dividends or other monies so payable any monies paid or payable by the Company as referred to above together with interest at the same rate;



43.3.

the Company may recover as a debt due from such Member or his or her executor or administrator (wherever constituted) any monies paid by the Company under or in consequence of any such law and interest thereon at the rate and for the period referred to above in excess of any dividends or other monies then due or payable by the Company; and



43.4.

the Company may, if any such money is paid or payable by it under any such law as referred to above, refuse to register a transfer of any Shares by any such Member or his or her executor or administrator until such money and interest is set off or deducted as referred to above or, in the case that it exceeds the amount of any such dividends or other monies then due or payable by the Company, until such excess is paid to the Company.

44.

Subject to the rights conferred upon the holders of any class of Shares, nothing in Article 43 will prejudice or affect any right or remedy which any law may confer or purport to confer on the Company. As between the Company and every such Member as referred to above (and, his or her executor, administrator and estate, wherever constituted), any right or remedy which such law shall confer or purport to confer on the Company shall be enforceable by the Company.

CALLS ON SHARES

45.

Subject to the terms of allotment, the Board may make calls upon the Members in respect of any monies unpaid on their Shares and each Member (subject to receiving at least fourteen (14) clear days' notice specifying when and where payment is to be made) shall pay to the

B-21

Company as required by the notice the amount called on his or her Shares. A call may be required or permitted to be paid in instalments. A call may be revoked before receipt by the Company of a sum due thereunder, in whole or in part, and payment of a call may be postponed in whole or in part.

46.

A call shall be deemed to have been made at the time when the resolution of the Board authorising the call was passed.

47.

A person on whom a call is made shall (in addition to a transferee) remain liable notwithstanding the subsequent transfer of the Share in respect of which the call is made.

48.

The joint holders of a Share shall be jointly and severally liable to pay all calls in respect thereof.

49.

If a call remains unpaid after it has become due and payable, the person from whom it is due and payable shall pay interest on the amount unpaid from the day it became due until it is paid at the rate fixed by the terms of allotment of the Share or in the notice of the call or, if no rate is fixed, at the appropriate rate (as defined by the Companies Act), but the Board may waive payment of the interest wholly or in part.

50.

An amount payable in respect of a Share on allotment or at any fixed date, whether in respect of nominal value or by way of premium, shall be deemed to be a call and, if it is not paid, the provisions of these Articles shall apply as if that amount had become due and payable by virtue of a call.

51.

Subject to the terms of allotment, the Board may make arrangements on the issue of Shares for a difference between the holders in the amounts and times of payment of calls on their Shares.

52.

The Directors may, if they think fit, receive from any Member willing to advance the same all or any part of the monies uncalled and unpaid upon any Shares held by him or her, and upon all or any of the monies so advanced may pay (until the same would, but for such advance, become payable) interest at such rate as may be agreed upon between the Directors and the Member paying such sum in advance.

FORFEITURE

53.

If a Member fails to pay any call or instalment of a call on the day appointed for payment thereof, the Directors, at any time thereafter during such times as any part of the call or instalment remains unpaid, may serve a notice on him or her requiring payment of so much of the call or instalment as is unpaid together with any interest which may have accrued.

54.

The notice shall state a further day (not earlier than the expiration of fourteen (14) clear days from the date of service of the notice) on or before which the payment required by the notice is to be made, and shall state that in the event of non-payment at or before the time appointed, the Shares in respect of which the call was made will be liable to be forfeited.

55.

If the requirements of any such notice as aforesaid are not complied with, then at any time thereafter before the payment required by the notice has been made, any Shares in respect of which the notice has been given may be forfeited by a resolution of the Directors to that effect. The forfeiture shall include all dividends or other monies payable in respect of the forfeited Shares and not paid before forfeiture. The Board may accept a surrender of any Share liable to be forfeited hereunder.

56.

On the trial or hearing of any action for the recovery of any money due for any call, it shall be sufficient to prove that the name of the Member sued is entered in the Register as the holder, or one of the holders, of the Shares in respect of which such debt accrued, that the resolution

B-22

making the call is duly recorded in the minute book and that notice of such call was duly given to the Member sued, in pursuance of these Articles, and it shall not be necessary to prove the appointment of the Directors who made such call nor any other matters whatsoever, but the proof of the matters aforesaid shall be conclusive evidence of the debt.

57.

A forfeited Share may be sold or otherwise disposed of on such terms and in such manner as the Directors think fit and at any time before a sale or disposition the forfeiture may be cancelled on such terms as the Directors think fit. Where for the purposes of its disposal, such a Share is to be transferred to any person, the Board may authorise some person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Share to that person. The Company may receive the consideration, if any, given for the Share on any sale or disposition thereof and may execute a transfer of the Share in favour of the person to whom the Share is sold or disposed of and thereupon he or she shall be registered as the holder of the Share and shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money, if any, nor shall his or her title to the Share be affected by any irregularity or invalidity in the proceedings in reference to the forfeiture, sale or disposal of the Share.

58.

A person whose Shares have been forfeited shall cease to be a Member in respect of the forfeited Shares, but nevertheless shall remain liable to pay to the Company all monies which, at the date of forfeiture, were payable by him or her to the Company in respect of the Shares, without any deduction or allowance for the value of the Shares at the time of forfeiture but his or her liability shall cease if and when the Company shall have received payment in full of all such monies in respect of the Shares.

59.

A statement in writing that the maker of the statement is a Director or the Secretary of the Company, and that a Share in the Company has been duly forfeited on the date stated in the statement, shall be conclusive evidence of the facts therein stated as against all persons claiming to be entitled to the Share.

60.

The provisions of these Articles as to forfeiture shall apply in the case of non-payment of any sum which, by the terms of issue of a Share, becomes payable at a fixed time, whether on account of the nominal value of the Share or by way of premium, as if the same had been payable by virtue of a call duly made and notified.

61.

The Directors may accept the surrender of any Share which the Directors have resolved to have been forfeited upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed and, subject to any such terms and conditions, a surrendered Share shall be treated as if it has been forfeited.

NON-RECOGNITION OF TRUSTS

62.

The Company shall not be obligated to recognise any person as holding any Share upon any trust (except as is otherwise provided in these Articles or to the extent required by law) and the Company shall not be bound by or be compelled in any way to recognise (even when having notice thereof) any equitable, contingent, future, or partial interest in any Share, or any interest in any fractional part of a Share, or (except only as is otherwise provided by these Articles or the Companies Act) any other rights in respect of any Share except an absolute right to the entirety thereof in the registered holder. This shall not preclude the Company from requiring the Members or a transferee of Shares to furnish the Company with information as to the beneficial ownership of any Share when such information is reasonably required by the Company.

B-23

TRANSMISSION OF SHARES

63.

If a Member dies, the survivor or survivors where the deceased was a joint holder, and the legal personal representatives of the deceased where he or she was a sole holder or the only survivor of joint holders, shall be the only persons recognised by the Company as having any title to his or her interest in the Shares; but nothing herein contained shall release the estate of any deceased holder from any liability in respect of any Share which had been jointly held by him or her solely or jointly with other persons.

64.

A person becoming entitled to a Share in consequence of the death, bankruptcy, liquidation or insolvency of a Member, or otherwise becoming entitled to a Share by operation of any law, directive or regulation (whether of Ireland, the European Union, or any other jurisdiction) may elect, upon such evidence of title being produced as the Directors or the Secretary (or such other person as may be nominated by the Secretary for this purpose) may reasonably require at any time and from time to time, and subject as further provided in this Article, either to become the holder of the Share or to have some person nominated by him or her registered as the transferee of such Share. If he or she elects to become the holder of the Share, he or she shall give notice to the Company to that effect and, where the Directors or the Secretary (or such other person as may be nominated by the Secretary for this purpose) are satisfied with the evidence of title produced to them, they may register such person as the holder of the Share, subject to the other provisions of these Articles and of the Companies Act. If he or she elects to have another person registered as the transferee of the relevant Share, he or she shall execute an instrument of transfer of the Share to that person. All of these Articles relating to the transfer of Shares shall apply to the notice or instrument of transfer as if it were an instrument of transfer executed by the relevant Member and the event giving rise to the entitlement of the relevant person to the Shares had not occurred.

65.

A person becoming entitled to a Share by transmission shall have the rights to which he or she would be entitled if he or she were the holder of the Share (including the right to receive and give a valid discharge for any dividends, distributions or other moneys payable on or in respect of the Share), except that, before being registered as the holder of the Share, he or she shall not be entitled in respect of it to receive notices of, or to attend or vote at, any meeting of the Company or at any separate meeting of holders of any class of Shares in the Company. The Directors or the Secretary (or such other person as may be nominated by the Secretary for this purpose), at any time, may give notice requiring any such person to elect either to be registered himself or herself as the holder of the Share or to transfer the Share and, if the notice is not complied with within ninety (90) days, the Directors or the Secretary (or such other person as may be nominated by the Secretary for this purpose) thereupon may withhold payment of all dividends, bonuses or other monies payable in respect of the Share until the requirements of the notice have been complied with.

AMENDMENT OF MEMORANDUM OF ASSOCIATION;
CHANGE OF LOCATION OF REGISTERED OFFICE; AND
ALTERATION OF CAPITAL

66.

The Company may by Ordinary Resolution (or as otherwise provided in these Articles, or determined by the Board or permitted under applicable law):

66.1.

divide its share capital into several classes and attach to them respectively any preferential, deferred, qualified or special rights, privileges or conditions;

66.2.

increase the authorised share capital by such sum to be divided into Shares of any nominal value;

B-24

66.3.

consolidate and divide all or any of the Shares into Shares of a larger nominal value than the existing Shares;



66.4.

subdivide the Shares, or any of them, into Shares of a smaller nominal value, so however, that in the sub-division the proportion between the amount paid and the amount, if any, unpaid on each reduced Share shall be the same as it was in the case of the Share from which the reduced Share is derived (and so that the Board may determine that, as between the holders of the Shares resulting from such sub-division, one or more of the Shares may have, as compared with the others, any such preferred, deferred or other rights or be subject to any such restrictions as the Company has power to attach to unissued or new Shares);



66.5.

cancel any Shares which have not been taken or agreed to be taken by any person and diminish the amount of the Company's share capital by the amount of the Shares so cancelled;



66.6.

increase the nominal value of any of the Shares by the addition to them of any undenominated capital;



66.7.

reduce the nominal value of any of the Shares by the deduction from them of any part of that value, subject to the crediting of the amount of the deduction to undenominated capital, other than the share premium account;



66.8.

convert any undenominated capital into Shares for allotment as bonus shares to holders of existing Shares; and/or



66.9.

subject to applicable law, change the currency denomination of its share capital.

67.

Subject to the provisions of the Companies Act, the Company may:

67.1.

by Special Resolution (or as otherwise required or permitted by applicable law) change its name, alter or add to the Memorandum with respect to any objects, powers or other matters specified therein or alter or add to these Articles;

67.2.

by Special Resolution (or as otherwise required or permitted by these Articles and applicable law (including, without limitation, section 83 of the Companies Act)) reduce its issued share capital and any capital redemption reserve fund, share premium account or undenominated capital account. In relation to such reductions, the Company may by Special Resolution (or as otherwise required or permitted by these Articles and applicable law) determine the terms upon which the reduction is to be effected, including in the case of a reduction of part only of any class of Shares, those Shares to be affected; and

67.3.

by resolution of the Directors, change the location of its registered office.

68.

Where any difficulty arises in regard to any alteration or reorganisation of the share capital of the Company, the Board may settle the same as they think expedient and in particular, may arrange to sell any Shares representing fractions for the best price reasonably obtainable to any person and distribute the proceeds of sale in due proportion among those Members, and the Board may authorise any person to execute an instrument of transfer of the Shares to, or in accordance with the directions of, the purchaser. The transferee shall not be bound to see to the application of the purchase money nor shall his or her title to the Shares be affected by any irregularity in or invalidity of the proceedings in reference to the sale.

B-25

CLOSING REGISTER OF MEMBERS OR FIXING RECORD DATE

69.

For the purpose of determining Members entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of Members or any adjournment thereof, or Members entitled to receive payment of any dividend, or in order to make a determination of Members for any other proper purpose, the Board may provide, subject to the requirements of section 174 of the Companies Act, that the Register of Members shall be closed for transfers at such times and for such periods, not exceeding in the whole thirty (30) days in each year, as it may determine. If the Register of Members shall be so closed for the purpose of determining Members entitled to notice of, or to vote at, a meeting of Members, such Register of Members shall be so closed for at least five (5) days immediately preceding such meeting and the record date for such determination shall be the date of the closure of the Register of Members.

70.

In lieu of, or apart from, closing the Register of Members, the Board may fix in advance a date as the record date (a) for any such determination of Members entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of the Members, which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) days before the date of such meeting, and (b) for the purpose of determining the Members entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution, or in order to make a determination of Members for any other proper purpose, which record date shall not be more than sixty (60) days prior to the date of payment of such dividend or other distribution or the taking of any action to which such determination of Members is relevant.

71.

If the Register of Members is not so closed and no record date is fixed for the determination of Members entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of Members, the date immediately preceding the date on which notice of the meeting is deemed given under these Articles shall be the record date for such determination of Members. Where a determination of Members entitled to vote at any meeting of Members has been made as provided in these Articles, such determination shall apply to any adjournment thereof; provided, however, that the Directors may fix a new record date of the adjourned meeting, if they think fit.

GENERAL MEETINGS

72.

The Board shall convene and the Company shall hold annual general meetings in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act.

73.

The Board may, whenever it thinks fit, and shall, on the requisition in writing of Members holding such number of Shares as is prescribed by, and made in accordance with the Companies Act, convene a general meeting in the manner required by the Companies Act. All general meetings other than annual general meetings shall be called extraordinary general meetings. Where any provision of the Companies Act confers rights on the members of a company to convene a general meeting without first directing the board of directors to convene a general meeting and expresses such rights to apply save where a company's articles of association or constitution provides otherwise, such rights shall not apply to the Members of the Company.

74.

The Company shall in each year hold a general meeting as its annual general meeting in addition to any other meeting in that year, and shall specify the meeting as such in the notice calling it. Not more than fifteen (15) months shall elapse between the date of one annual general meeting of the Company and that of the next. Each general meeting shall be held at such time and place as designated by the Board and as specified in the notice of meeting. Subject to section 176 of the Companies Act, all general meetings may be held outside of Ireland.

75.

The Board may authorise the Secretary to postpone or cancel any general meeting called in accordance with the provisions of these Articles (other than a meeting requisitioned by the

B-26

Members in accordance with the Companies Act or the postponement or cancellation of which would be contrary to the Companies Act, law or a Court order pursuant to the Companies Act) if the Board considers that, for any reason, it is impractical or unreasonable to hold the general meeting, provided that notice of postponement or cancellation is given to each Member before the time for such meeting. Fresh notice of the date, time and place for any postponed meeting shall be given to each Member in accordance with the provisions of these Articles.

NOTICE OF GENERAL MEETINGS

76.

Subject to the provisions of the Companies Act allowing a general meeting to be called by shorter notice, an annual general meeting, and an extraordinary general meeting called for the passing of a Special Resolution, shall be called on at least twenty-one (21) clear days' notice and all other extraordinary general meetings shall be called on at least fourteen (14) clear days' notice. Such notice shall state the date, time, place of the meeting and the general nature of the business to be considered. Every notice shall specify such other details as are required by applicable law or the relevant code, rules and regulations applicable to the listing of the Shares on any Exchange.

77.

A general meeting of the Company shall, whether or not the notice specified in Article 76 has been given and whether or not the provisions of the Articles regarding general meetings have been complied with, be deemed to have been duly convened if applicable law so permits and it is so agreed by the Auditors and by all the Members entitled to attend and vote thereat or by their proxies.

78.

The notice convening an annual general meeting shall specify the meeting as such, and the notice convening a meeting to pass a Special Resolution shall specify the intention to propose the resolution as a Special Resolution. Notice of every general meeting shall be given in any manner permitted by these Articles to all Members.

79.

There shall appear with reasonable prominence in every notice of general meeting of the Company a statement that a Member entitled to attend and vote is entitled to appoint one or more proxies to attend and vote instead of him or her and that a proxy need not be a Member of the Company.

80.

The accidental omission to give notice of a general meeting to, or the non-receipt of notice of a meeting by, any person entitled to receive notice shall not invalidate the proceedings of that meeting.

81.

In cases where instruments of proxy are sent out with notices, the accidental omission to send such instrument of proxy to, or the non-receipt of such instrument of proxy by, any person entitled to receive notice shall not invalidate the notice or any resolution passed or any proceeding at any such meeting. A Member present, either in person or by proxy, at any general meeting of the Company or of the holders of any class of Shares in the Company will be deemed to have received notice of that meeting and, where required, of the purpose for which it was called.

82.1.

the consideration of the Company's statutory financial statements and the report of the Directors and the report of the Auditors on those statements and that report;

84.

If within 15 minutes (or such longer time not exceeding one hour as the Chairperson of the meeting may decide to wait) after the time appointed for the holding of the meeting a quorum is not present, or if during the meeting a quorum ceases to be present, the meeting (i) if convened on the requisition of Members, shall be dissolved; and (ii) in any other case, shall stand adjourned to the same day in the next week or to such other day and at such other time and place as the Chairperson (or, in default, the Board) may, subject to the provisions of the Companies Act, determine. If at such adjourned meeting a quorum is not present within 15 minutes after the time appointed for holding it the adjourned meeting shall be dissolved.

85.

If the Board wishes to make this facility available to Members for any or all general meetings of the Company, a Member may participate in any general meeting of the Company by means of a telephone, video, electronic or similar communication equipment by way of which all persons participating in such meeting can communicate with each other simultaneously and instantaneously and such participation shall be deemed to constitute presence in person at the meeting.

86.

Each Director and the Auditors shall be entitled to attend and speak at any general meeting of the Company.

87.

The Chairperson, or in his absence, some other Director nominated by the Directors shall preside at every general meeting of the Company, but if at any meeting neither the Chairperson, nor such other Director, is present within fifteen minutes after the time appointed for the holding of the meeting, or if none of them are willing to act as Chairperson, the Directors present shall choose some Director present to be Chairperson, or if no Director is present, or if all the Directors present decline to take the chair, the Members present shall choose some Member present to be Chairperson.

88.

The Chairperson of the meeting may, and shall if so directed by the meeting (upon the passage of an Ordinary Resolution), adjourn the meeting from time to time and from place to place, but no business shall be transacted at any adjourned meeting other than the business left unfinished, or which might have been transacted, at the meeting from which the adjournment took place. When a general meeting is adjourned for thirty (30) days or more, notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given as in the case of an original meeting; save as aforesaid it shall not be necessary to give any notice of an adjournment or of the business to be transacted at an adjourned general meeting. Without prejudice to any other power of adjournment which the Chairperson of the meeting may have under these Articles, at common law or otherwise, the Chairperson may, without the consent of the meeting, adjourn the meeting from time to time (or indefinitely) and from place to place if he or she decides that it is necessary or appropriate to do so in order to: (a) secure the proper and orderly conduct of the meeting (b) give all persons entitled to do so an opportunity of attending the meeting (c) give all persons entitled to do so a reasonable opportunity of speaking and voting at the meeting or (d) ensure that the business of the meeting is properly concluded or disposed of, including (without limitation) for the purpose of determining the result of a poll.

No amendment may be made to a resolution, at or before the time when it is put to a vote, unless the Chairperson of the meeting decides that the amendment or the amended resolution may properly be put to a vote at that meeting.

89.4.

If the Chairperson of the meeting rules a resolution or an amendment to a resolution admissible or out of order (as the case may be), the proceedings of the meeting or on the resolution in question shall not be invalidated by any error in his or her ruling.

91.

Except where a greater majority is required by the Companies Act or where these Articles provide otherwise, any question proposed for a decision of the Members at any general meeting of the Company or a decision of any class of Members at a separate meeting of any class of Shares shall be decided by an Ordinary Resolution.

95.

If authorised by the Board, any vote taken by written ballot may be satisfied by a ballot submitted by electronic and/or telephonic transmission, provided that any such electronic or telephonic submission must either set forth or be submitted with information from which it can be determined that the electronic or telephonic submission has been authorised by the Member or proxy.

96.

The Board may adopt such rules, regulations and procedures for the conduct of any meeting of the Members as it deems appropriate.

98.

In the case of joint holders of record the vote of the senior holder who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, shall be accepted to the exclusion of the votes of the other joint holders, and for this purpose seniority shall be determined by the order in which the names stand in the Register of Members.

Section 193 of the Companies Act will not apply to the Company and no resolutions in writing may be validly passed by the Members.

105.

105.1.

Every Member entitled to attend and vote at a general meeting may appoint a proxy to attend, speak and vote on his or her behalf and may appoint more than one proxy to attend, speak and vote at the same meeting. The appointment of a proxy or corporate representative shall be in such form and may be accepted by the Company at such place and at such time as may be specified in the notice convening the meeting or in any other information sent to the Members by or on behalf of the Board in relation to the meeting, subject to applicable requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission and any Exchange on which the Shares are listed.

105.2.

Without limiting the foregoing, the Board or the Secretary may from time to time permit appointments of a proxy to be made by means of an electronic or internet communication or facility and may in a similar manner permit supplements to, or amendments or revocations of, any such electronic or internet communication or facility to be made. For the avoidance of doubt, such appointments of proxy made by electronic or internet communications (as permitted by the Board or the Secretary) will be deemed to be deposited at the place specified for such purpose once received by the Company. The Board or the Secretary may in addition prescribe the method of determining the time at which any such electronic or internet communication or facility is to be treated as deposited at the place specified for such purpose. The Board may treat any such electronic or internet communication or facility which purports to be or is expressed to be sent on behalf of a Member as sufficient evidence of the authority of the person sending that instruction to send it on behalf of that Member.

106.

Any body corporate which is a Member of the Company may authorise such person or persons as it thinks fit to act as its representative at any meeting of the Company or of any class of Members of the Company and the person or persons so authorised shall be entitled to exercise the same powers on behalf of the body corporate which he or she represents as that body corporate could exercise if it were an individual Member of the Company. The Company may require evidence from the body corporate of the due authorisation of such person or persons to act as the representative of the relevant body corporate.

107.

An appointment of proxy relating to more than one meeting (including any adjournment thereof) having once been received by the Company for the purposes of any meeting shall not require to be delivered, deposited or received again by the Company for the purposes of any subsequent meeting to which it relates.

B-32

Receipt by the Company of an appointment of proxy in respect of a meeting shall not preclude a Member from attending and voting at the meeting or at any adjournment thereof which attendance and voting will automatically cancel any proxy previously submitted.

109.

An appointment of proxy shall be valid, unless the contrary is stated therein, for any adjournment of the meeting as well as for the meeting to which it relates.

110.

A vote given in accordance with the terms of an appointment of proxy or a resolution authorising a representative to act on behalf of a body corporate shall be valid notwithstanding the death or insanity of the principal, or the revocation of the appointment of proxy or of the authority under which the proxy was appointed or of the resolution authorising the representative to act or transfer of the Share in respect of which the proxy was appointed or the authorisation of the representative to act was given, provided that no notice in writing (whether in electronic form or otherwise) of such death, insanity, revocation or transfer shall have been received by the Company at the registered office before the commencement of the meeting or adjourned meeting at which the appointment of proxy is used or at which the representative acts.

111.

The Board may send, at the expense of the Company and subject to applicable law (including the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission), by post, electronic mail or otherwise, to the Members forms for the appointment of a proxy (with or without stamped envelopes for their return) for use at any general meeting or at any class meeting, either in blank or nominating any one or more of the Directors or any other persons in the alternative.

DIRECTORS

112.

The number of Directors on the Board shall be not less than two (2) nor more than 12. The authorised number of Directors (within such fixed maximum and fixed minimum numbers) shall be determined solely by the Board and, for the avoidance of doubt, shall not require approval or ratification by the Company in general meeting.

113.

The remuneration to be paid to the Directors shall be such remuneration as the Directors in their sole discretion shall determine. The Directors shall also be entitled to be paid their travelling, hotel and other expenses properly incurred by them in going to, attending and returning from meetings of the Directors, or any committee of the Directors, or general meetings of the Company, or otherwise in connection with the business of the Company, or to receive a fixed allowance in respect thereof as may be determined by the Board from time to time, or a combination partly of one such method and partly the other. The amount, rate or basis of the remuneration or expenses to be paid to the Directors shall not require approval or ratification by the Company in general meeting. A Director is expressly permitted (for the purposes of section 228(1)(d) of the Companies Act) to use the Company's property pursuant to or in connection with: the exercise or performance of his duties, functions and powers as Director or employee; the terms of any contract of service or employment or letter of appointment; and, or in the alternative, any other usage authorised by the Directors (or a person authorised by the Directors) from time to time; and including in each case for a Director's own benefit or for the benefit of another person.

114.

The Board may approve additional remuneration to any Director undertaking any special work or services for, or undertaking any special mission on behalf of, the Company other than his or her ordinary routine work as a Director.

B-33

115.

The salary or remuneration of a Director appointed to hold employment or executive office may be a fixed sum of money, or wholly or in part governed by business done or profits made, or as otherwise decided by the Board (including, for the avoidance of doubt, by the Board acting through a duly authorised Board committee), and may be in addition to or instead of a fee payable to such Director for his or her services as Director pursuant to these Articles.

116.

Members of special or standing committees may be allowed like compensation for service on any such committees or for attending committee meetings, or both.

A Director may hold any other office or place of profit under the Company (other than the office of its Auditors) in conjunction with his or her office of Director for such period and on such terms as to remuneration and otherwise as the Board may determine.

119.

Nothing in section 228(1)(e) of the Companies Act shall restrict a Director from entering into any commitment which has been approved by the Board or has been approved pursuant to such authority as may be delegated by the Board in accordance with these Articles. It shall be the duty of each Director to obtain the prior approval of the Board, before entering into any commitment permitted by sections 228(1)(e)(ii) and 228(2) of the Companies Act.

120.

A Director may act by himself or herself or by his or her firm in a professional capacity for the Company (other than as its Auditors) and he or she or his or her firm shall be entitled to remuneration for professional services as if he or she were not a Director.

121.

A Director may be or become a director, managing director, joint managing director, deputy managing director, executive director, manager or other officer or member of any other entity or otherwise interested in any entity promoted by the Company or in which the Company may be interested as member or otherwise, and no such Director shall be accountable to the Company for any remuneration or other benefits received by him or her as a Director, managing director, joint managing director, deputy managing director, executive director, manager or other officer or member of such other entity; provided that he or she has declared the nature of his or her position with, or interest in, such entity to the Board in accordance with Article 117 and this has been approved by a majority of the disinterested Directors, notwithstanding the fact that the disinterested Directors may represent less than a quorum.

122.

No person shall be disqualified from the office of Director or from being an officer of the Company or prevented by such office from contracting with the Company, either as vendor, purchaser or otherwise, nor shall any such contract or any contract or transaction entered into by or on behalf of the Company in which any Director or officer of the Company shall be in any way interested be or be liable to be avoided, nor shall any Director or officer of the

B-34

Company so contracting or being so interested be liable to account to the Company for any profit realised by any such contract or transaction by reason of such Director or officer of the Company holding office or of the fiduciary relation thereby established; provided that:

122.1.

he or she has declared the nature of his or her interest in such contract or transaction to the Board in accordance with Article 117; and



122.2.

the contract or transaction is approved by a majority of the disinterested Directors, notwithstanding the fact that the disinterested Directors may represent less than a quorum.

123.

A Director may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board which authorises or approves the contract, transaction or arrangement in which he or she is interested and he or she shall be at liberty to vote in respect of any contract, transaction or arrangement in which he or she is interested, provided that the nature of the interest of any Director in any such contract or transaction shall be disclosed by him or her in accordance with Article 117, at or prior to its consideration and any vote thereon.

124.

For the purposes of Article 117:

124.1.

a general notice given to the Directors that a Director is to be regarded as having an interest of the nature and extent specified in the notice in any transaction or arrangement in which a specified person or class of persons is interested shall be deemed to be a disclosure that the Director has an interest in any such transaction of the nature and extent so specified;

124.2.

an interest of which a Director has no knowledge and of which it is unreasonable to expect him or her to have knowledge shall not be treated as an interest of his or hers; and

124.3.

a copy of every declaration made and notice given under Article 117 shall be entered within three (3) days after the making or giving thereof in a book kept for this purpose. Such book shall be open for inspection without charge by any Director, Secretary, the Auditors or Member of the Company at the registered office and shall be produced at every general meeting of the Company and at any meeting of the Directors if any Director so requests in sufficient time to enable the book to be available at the meeting.

125.

The business of the Company shall be managed by the Directors, who may pay all expenses incurred in promoting and registering the Company and may exercise all such powers of the Company as are not, by the Companies Act or by these Articles, required to be exercised by the Company in general meeting, subject, nevertheless, to any of these Articles and to the provisions of the Companies Act. No resolution made by the Company in general meeting shall invalidate any prior act of the Directors that would have been valid if that resolution had not been made.

The Board may from time to time confer like powers upon any other person or persons.

129.

All cheques, promissory notes, drafts, bills of exchange and other negotiable instruments and all receipts for money paid to the Company shall be signed, drawn, accepted, endorsed or otherwise executed, as the case may be, by such person or persons and in such manner as the Directors shall from time to time by resolution determine.

130.

The Directors may from time to time authorise such person or persons as they see fit to perform all acts, including, without prejudice to the foregoing, to effect a transfer of any shares, bonds, or other evidences of indebtedness or obligations, subscription rights, warrants, and other securities in another company in which the Company holds an interest and to issue the necessary powers of attorney for the same; and each such person is authorised on behalf of the Company to vote such securities, to appoint proxies with respect thereto, and to execute consents, waivers and releases with respect thereto, or to cause any such action to be taken.

131.

The Board may exercise all powers of the Company to borrow money and to mortgage or charge its undertaking, property and uncalled capital or any part thereof and to issue debentures, debenture stock, mortgages, bonds or such other securities whether outright or as security for any debt, liability or obligation of the Company or of any third party.

counsel, president, treasurer and controller. Any person may hold more than one of the foregoing positions.

140.

Any person elected or appointed pursuant to Articles 138 and 139 shall hold his or her office or other position for such period and on such terms as the Board may determine and the Board may revoke or vary any such election or appointment at any time by resolution of the Board. Any such revocation or variation shall be without prejudice to any claim for damages that such person may have against the Company or the Company may have against such person for any breach of any contract of service between him or her and the Company which may be involved in such revocation or variation. If any such office or other position becomes vacant for any reason, the vacancy may be filled by the Board.

141.

Except as provided in the Companies Act or these Articles, the powers and duties of any person elected or appointed to any office or executive or official position pursuant to Articles 138 and 139 shall be such as are determined from time to time by the Board.

142.

Any officer may resign at any time by giving written notice to the Company. The resignation is effective without acceptance when the notice is given to the Company, unless a later effective date is specified in the notice.

143.

The use of the word "officer", "director" (save where the relevant person is a Director for the purposes of these Articles) (or similar words) in the title of any executive or other position shall not be deemed to imply that the person holding such executive or other position is an "officer" or "director" of the Company within the meaning of the Companies Act.

PROCEEDINGS OF DIRECTORS

144.

Except as otherwise provided by these Articles, the Directors shall meet together for the despatch of business, convening, adjourning and otherwise regulating their meetings and procedures as they think fit. Questions arising at any meeting shall be decided by a majority of votes of the Directors present at a meeting at which there is a quorum. Each Director shall have one vote.

145.

Regular meetings of the Board may be held at such times and places as may be provided for in resolutions adopted by the Board. No additional notice of a regularly scheduled meeting of the Board shall be required.

146.

A Director may, and the Secretary on the requisition of a Director shall, at any time summon a meeting of the Directors by at least 24 hours' notice (or, if notice is mailed, at least four calendar days' notice) in writing to every Director, unless notice is waived by all the Directors either at, before or after the meeting is held and, provided further, if notice is given in person, by telephone, cable, telex, telecopy or email, the same shall be deemed to have been given on the day it is delivered to the Directors or transmitting organisation, as the case may be. The accidental omission to give notice of a meeting of the Directors to, or the non-receipt of notice of a meeting by, any person entitled to receive notice shall not invalidate the proceedings of that meeting. The presence of a Director at a meeting of the Directors shall be deemed to be a waiver of any failure to give due notice of such meeting unless such Director states that he or she is not waiving any such failure promptly following the calling to order of such meeting. Notice of a Board meeting shall be deemed to be duly given to a Director if it is given to such Director personally or by word of mouth or sent in writing to his or her last known address or any other address given to the Company by such Director for such purpose or given by electronic communications to an address for the time being notified to the Company by the Director. In this Article "address," in relation to documents in electronic form, includes any number or address used for the supply of documents in electronic form.

B-38

147.

The quorum necessary for the transaction of the business of the Board shall be a majority of the Directors in office. If a quorum shall not be present at any meeting of the Board, the Directors present thereat may adjourn the meeting from time to time, without notice other than announcement at the meeting, until a quorum shall be present.

148.

The continuing Directors may act notwithstanding any vacancy in their body, but if and so long as their number is reduced below the number fixed by or pursuant to these Articles as the minimum number of Directors, the continuing Directors or Director may act for the purpose of increasing the number of Directors to that number, or of summoning a general meeting of the Company, but for no other purpose. If there are no Director or Directors able or willing to act, any two Members may summon a general meeting for the purpose of appointing Directors. Any Director so appointed shall hold office (subject to these Articles) only until the dissolution of the annual general meeting next following such appointment unless such Director is re-elected during such meeting.

149.

If no Chairperson is elected, or if at any meeting the Chairperson is not present within five (5) minutes after the time appointed for holding the same, the Directors present may choose one of their number to be the Chairperson of the meeting or proceed without a Chairperson of the meeting.

150.

All acts done by any meeting of the Directors or of a committee of Directors shall, notwithstanding that it be afterwards discovered that there was some defect in the appointment of any Director, or that they or any of them were disqualified, be as valid as if every such person had been duly appointed and qualified to be a Director.

151.

Members of the Board or of any committee thereof may participate in a meeting of the Board or of such committee by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other and participation in a meeting pursuant to this provision shall constitute presence in person at such meeting. Unless otherwise determined by the Directors, the meeting shall be deemed to be held at the place where the telephone call or similar communication was initiated.

152.

A resolution or other document in writing (in electronic form or otherwise), signed (whether by electronic signature, advanced electronic signature or otherwise as approved by the Directors) by all the Directors entitled to receive notice of a meeting of Directors or of a committee of Directors, and to vote on the relevant resolution or matter, shall be as valid and effectual as if it had been passed at a meeting of Directors or (as the case may be) a committee of Directors duly convened and held and may consist of several documents in the like form each signed by one or more Directors, and such resolution or other document or documents when duly signed may be delivered or transmitted (unless the Directors shall otherwise determine either generally or in any specific case) by facsimile transmission, electronic mail or some other similar means of transmitting the content of documents.

RESIGNATION AND DISQUALIFICATION OF DIRECTORS

153.

The office of a Director shall be vacated ipso facto:

153.1.

on the death of a Director;

153.2.

if he or she resigns his or her office, on the date on which notice of his or her resignation is delivered to the registered office or tendered at a meeting of the Board or on such later date as may be specified in such notice;

B-39

153.3.

if he or she ceases to be a Director by virtue of any provision of the Companies Act, is removed from office pursuant to these Articles or the Companies Act or becomes prohibited by law from being a Director;



153.4.

if he or she becomes bankrupt, has an interim receiving order made against him or her, makes any arrangement or compounds with his or her creditors generally or applies to the court for an interim order in connection with a voluntary arrangement under any legislation relating to insolvency;



153.5.

if the health of the director is such that, in the opinion of a majority of the other Directors, he or she can no longer be reasonably regarded as possessing adequate decision making capacity;



153.6.

in the case of a Director who holds executive office, his or her appointment to such office is terminated or expires and the Board resolves that such Director's office be vacated;



153.7.

if he or she is absent, without permission of the Board, from Board meetings for six consecutive months and the Board resolves that his or her office be vacated; or



153.8.

if the Director is requested to resign in writing by not less than a majority of the other Directors.

154.

A resolution of the Board declaring a Director to have vacated office pursuant to this Article shall be conclusive as to the fact and grounds of vacation stated in the resolution.

APPOINTMENT, ROTATION, REMOVAL AND NOMINATION OF DIRECTORS

155.

155.1.

No person shall be appointed a Director unless nominated in accordance with the provisions of this Article 155. Nominations of persons for election to the Board at a general meeting may be made:

(a)

by or at the direction of the Board or a committee thereof;



(b)

with respect to election at a general meeting, by any Member who holds Shares carrying the general right to vote at general meetings of the Company, who is a Member at the time of the giving of the required notice of the relevant general meeting provided for in these Articles and at the time of the relevant general meeting, and who has given timely and proper notice in writing to the Secretary in accordance with Article 155.2 and 155.3;



(c)

with respect to election at an extraordinary general meeting requisitioned in accordance with section 178(3) of the Companies Act, by a Member or Members who hold Shares carrying the general right to vote at general meetings of the Company and who make such nomination in the written requisition of the extraordinary general meeting in accordance with these Articles, including Article 155.3, and the provisions of the Companies Act relating to nominations of Directors and the proper bringing of special business before an extraordinary general meeting,

(sub-clauses (b) and (c) being the exclusive means for a Member to make nominations of persons for election to the Board).

B-40

155.2.

For nominations of persons for election as Directors at a general meeting to be timely, a Member's notice must comply with the requirements of Article 90.2 or 90.3 (as applicable).



155.3.

To be in proper written form, a Member's notice for nomination(s) of person(s) for election pursuant to Article 155.1(b), or in the case of nomination(s) of person(s) for election pursuant to Article 155.1(c), a Member's written requisition of the extraordinary general meeting, must, in addition to any other applicable requirements, set forth:



(a)

as to each person whom the Member proposes to nominate for election or re-election as a Director, all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations for proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A of the Exchange Act (including such person's written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); and



(b)

as to the Member giving the notice and each beneficial owner, if different, on whose behalf the nomination is made:



(i)

the name and address of such Member (as they appear on the Company's Register of Members) and each such beneficial owner; and



(ii)

the class and number of Shares in the Company which each such Member and each such beneficial owner is the registered or beneficial owner of.



155.4.

The Chairperson of the meeting shall determine whether a nomination was made in accordance with the procedures prescribed by these Articles, and if he or she should determine that such nomination was not made in accordance with such procedures, he or she shall declare to the meeting that the nomination was defective and such defective nomination shall be disregarded. Any such ruling by the Chairperson of the meeting shall be final and conclusive.



155.5.

The Company may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information as it may reasonably require, including the completion of any questionnaires, to determine the eligibility of such proposed nominee to serve as a Director of the Company and the impact that such service would have on the ability of the Company to satisfy the requirements of laws, rules, regulations and listing standards applicable to the Company or its Directors.

156.

At every annual general meeting of the Company, all of the Directors shall retire from office unless re-elected in accordance with Article 157. A Director retiring at a meeting shall retain office until the close of that meeting (including any adjournment thereof). Each Director shall be eligible to stand for re-election at an annual general meeting.

157.

Directors will be elected by way of Ordinary Resolution of the Company in general meeting, provided that if the number of Director nominees exceeds the number of Directors (as determined by the Board) to be elected at such meeting (a "contested election"), each of those nominees shall be voted upon as a separate resolution and the Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the Shares present in person or represented by proxy at any such meeting and entitled to vote on the election of Directors. For the purposes of this Article 157, "elected by a plurality" means the election of those Director nominees, equal in number to the number of positions to be filled at the relevant general meeting (as determined by the Board), that received the highest number of votes in the contested election. Cumulative voting is prohibited in the election of Directors.

B-41

158.

Notwithstanding any other provision of these Articles, the directors may appoint a person who is willing to act to be a Director, either to fill a casual vacancy or as an additional Director, provided that the appointment does not cause the number of Directors to exceed the number fixed by or in accordance with these Articles as the maximum number of Directors. A casual vacancy will include, without limitation, a vacancy that results from the death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal of a Director.

159.

The Company may, by Ordinary Resolution, of which notice has been given in accordance with section 146 of the Companies Act, remove any Director before the expiration of his or her period of office notwithstanding anything in these Articles or in any agreement between the Company and such Director. Such removal shall be without prejudice to any claim such Director may have for damages for breach of any contract of service between him or her and the Company.

SECRETARY

160.

The Board shall appoint the Secretary and may appoint one or more persons to be a joint, deputy or Assistant Secretary at such remuneration (if any) and on such terms as the Board sees fit and any person so appointed may be removed by the Board at any time.

161.

The duties of the Secretary shall be those prescribed by the Companies Act, together with such other duties as shall from time to time be prescribed by the Board, and in any case, shall include the making and keeping of records of the votes, doings and proceedings of all meetings of the Members and the Board of the Company, and committees, and the authentication of records of the Company.

162.

A provision of the Companies Act or these Articles requiring or authorising a thing to be done by or to a Director and the Secretary shall not be satisfied by its being done by or to the same person acting both as Director and as, or in the place of, the Secretary.

SEAL

163.

Company may, if the Board so determines, have a Seal (including any official seals kept pursuant to the Companies Act) which shall only be used by the authority of the Board or of a committee of the Board authorised by the Board in that regard and every instrument to which the Seal has been affixed shall be signed by any person who shall be either a Director or the Secretary or some other person authorised by the Board, either generally or specifically, for the purpose.

164.

The Company may have for use in any place or places outside Ireland a duplicate Seal or Seals, each of which shall be a duplicate of the Seal of the Company, except, in the case of a seal for use in sealing documents creating or evidencing securities issued by the Company, for the addition on its face of the word "Securities" and, if the Board so determines, with the addition on its face of the name of every place where it is to be used.

DIVIDENDS, DISTRIBUTIONS AND RESERVES

165.

The Company in general meeting may by Ordinary Resolution declare dividends, but no dividends shall exceed the amount recommended by the Board. Subject to the Companies Act, the Board may, from time to time, pay such interim dividends as appear to it to be justified by the profits of the Company available for distribution. The Board may direct that any dividend declared by the Company in general meeting or by the Board in accordance with these Articles may be paid wholly or partly by the distribution of specific assets and in particular of paid up shares, debentures or debenture stocks of any other company or in any one or more of such

B-42

ways. Where any difficulty arises in regard to such distribution, the Board may settle the same as they think expedient, and in particular may issue fractional certificates or ignore fractions, fix the value for distribution of such specific assets or any part thereof and may determine that cash payments shall be made to any Members upon the footing of the value so fixed, in order to adjust the rights of all the parties, and may vest any such specific assets in trustees as may seem expedient to the Board.

166.

Subject to the Companies Act, the Board may from time to time declare dividends (including interim dividends) and distributions on Shares outstanding and authorise payment of the same out of the funds of the Company lawfully available therefore and in any currency chosen at its discretion.

167.

The Board may, before recommending or declaring any dividends or distributions, set aside such sums as it thinks proper as a reserve or reserves which shall, as directed by the Board, be applicable for any purpose of the Company and pending such application may, as directed by the Board, be employed in the business of the Company or be invested in such investments as the Directors may lawfully determine. The Directors may also, without placing the same to reserve, carry forward any profits which they may think it prudent not to dividend or distribute.

168.

No dividend, interim dividend or distribution shall be paid otherwise than in accordance with the provisions of section 117 of the Companies Act.

169.

Subject to the rights of persons, if any, entitled to Shares with special rights as to dividends or distributions, if dividends or distributions are to be declared on a class of Shares, they shall be declared and paid according to the amounts paid or credited as paid on the Shares of such class outstanding on the record date for such dividend or distribution as determined in accordance with these Articles.

170.

The Directors may deduct from any dividend payable to any Member all sums of money (if any) immediately payable by him or her to the Company in relation to his or her Shares.

171.

Any dividend, distribution, interest or other monies payable in cash in respect of Shares may be paid by cheque or warrant sent through the post, or sent by any electronic or other means of payment, directed to the registered address of the holder or, in the case of joint holders, to the holder who is first named on the Register of Members or to such person and to such address as such holder or joint holders may in writing direct. Every such cheque or warrant, electronic or other payment shall be made payable to the order of the person to whom it is sent and payment of the cheque or warrant shall be a good discharge to the Company. Any one of two or more joint holders may give effectual receipts for any dividends, bonuses, or other monies payable in respect of the Share held by them as joint holders. Any such dividend or other distribution may also be paid by any other method (including payment in a currency other than US$, electronic funds transfer, direct debit, bank transfer or by means of a relevant system) which the Directors consider appropriate and any Member who elects for such method of payment shall be deemed to have accepted all of the risks inherent therein. The debiting of the Company's account in respect of the relevant amount shall be evidence of good discharge of the Company's obligations in respect of any payment made by any such methods.

172.

No dividend or distribution shall bear interest against the Company.

173.

All unclaimed dividends or other monies payable by the Company in respect of a Share may be invested or otherwise made use of by the Board for the benefit of the Company until claimed. If the Directors so resolve, subject to applicable law, any dividend which has remained unclaimed for twelve (12) years from the date of its declaration shall be forfeited and cease to remain owing by the Company. The payment by the Directors of any unclaimed dividend or

B-43

other monies payable in respect of a Share into a separate account shall not constitute the Company a trustee in respect thereof.

174.

If, in respect of a dividend or other amount payable in respect of a Share (i) a cheque, warrant or money order is returned undelivered or left uncashed or (ii) a transfer made by or through a bank transfer system and/or other funds transfer system(s) fails or is not accepted, on two consecutive occasions, or one occasion and reasonable enquiries have failed to establish another address or account of the person entitled to the payment, the Company shall not be obliged to send or transfer a dividend or other amount payable in respect of such Share to such person until he or she notifies the Company of an address or account to be used for such purpose.

CAPITALISATION

175.

Without prejudice to any powers conferred on the Directors as aforesaid, and subject to the Board's authority to issue and allot Shares under Article 7, the Board may:

175.1.

resolve to capitalise an amount standing to the credit of reserves (including, without limitation, a share premium account, undenominated capital account, capital redemption reserve and profit and loss account), whether or not available for distribution;

175.2.

appropriate the sum resolved to be capitalised to the Members in proportion to the nominal amount of Shares held by them respectively and apply that sum on their behalf in or towards paying up in full unissued Shares or debentures of a nominal amount equal to that sum, and allot the Shares or debentures, credited as fully paid, to the Members (or as the Board may direct) in those proportions, or partly in one way and partly in the other, but the share premium account, undenominated capital account, capital redemption reserve and profits that are not available for distribution may, for the purposes of this Article 175, only be applied in paying up unissued Shares to be allotted to Members credited as fully paid;

175.3.

make any arrangements it thinks fit to resolve a difficulty arising in the distribution of a capitalised reserve, including that where Shares or debentures become distributable in fractions, the Board may deal with the fractions as it thinks fit;

175.4.

authorise a person to enter (on behalf of all the Members concerned) into an agreement with the Company providing for the allotment to the Members respectively, credited as fully paid, of Shares or debentures to which they may be entitled on the capitalisation and any such agreement made under this authority being effective and binding on all those Members; and

175.5.

generally do all acts and things required to give effect to the resolution of the Board.

176.

Any such capitalisation will not require approval or ratification by the Members of the Company.

ACCOUNTS

177.

The Board shall, in accordance with Chapter 2 of Part 6 of the Companies Act, cause to be kept adequate accounting records, whether in the form of documents, electronic form or otherwise, that:

177.1.

correctly record and explain the transactions of the Company;

177.2.

will at any time enable the financial position of the Company to be determined with reasonable accuracy;

B-44

177.3.

will enable the Board to ensure that any financial statements of the Company comply with the requirements of the Companies Act;



177.4.

will record all sums of money received and expended by the Company and the matters in respect of which the receipt or expenditure takes place, all sales and purchases of goods by the Company and the assets and liabilities of the Company; and



177.5.

will enable the financial statements of the Company to be readily and properly audited.

178.

Accounting records shall be kept on a continuous and consistent basis and entries therein shall be made in a timely manner and be consistent from year to year. The Company may send by post, electronic mail or any other means of electronic communication a summary financial statement to its Members or persons nominated by any Member. The Company may meet, but shall be under no obligation to meet, any request from any of its Members to be sent additional copies of its full report and accounts or summary financial statement or other communications with its Members.

179.

The accounting records shall be kept at the registered office of the Company or, subject to the provisions of the Companies Act, at such other place as the Directors think fit and shall be open at all reasonable times to the inspection of the Directors.

180.

Accounting records shall not be deemed to be kept as required by Articles 177 to 179 if there are not kept such accounting records as are necessary to give a true and fair view of the state of the Company's affairs and to explain its transactions.

181.

In accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act, the Board may from time to time cause to be prepared and to be laid before the Company in general meeting profit and loss accounts, balance sheets, group accounts (if any) and such other reports and accounts as may be required by law.

182.

A copy of every balance sheet (including every document required by law to be annexed thereto) which is to be laid before the annual general meeting of the Company together with a copy of the Directors' report and Auditors' report shall be sent by post, electronic mail or any other means of communication (electronic or otherwise), not less than twenty-one (21) clear days before the date of the annual general meeting, to every person entitled under the provisions of the Companies Act to receive them; provided that in the case of those documents sent by electronic mail or any other means of electronic communication, such documents shall be sent with the consent of the recipient, to the address of the recipient notified to the Company by the recipient for such purposes.

AUDIT

183.

A notice or document may be sent by electronic means to the fullest extent permitted by the Companies Act.



184.2.

For the purposes of these Articles and the Companies Act, a document, including the Company's financial statements and the directors' and auditor's reports thereon, shall be deemed to have been sent to a Director, Member or committee member if a notice is given, served, sent or delivered to the Director, Member or committee member and the notice specifies the website or hotlink or other electronic link at or through which the Director, Member or committee member may obtain a copy of the relevant document.

Where a Member has given, or is deemed to have given, his/her consent to the receipt by such Member of electronic mail or other means of electronic communications approved by the Directors, she/he may revoke such consent at any time by requesting the Company to communicate with him or her in documented form; provided, however, that such revocation shall not take effect until five (5) days after written notice of the revocation is received by the Company.

184.9.

Without prejudice to the provisions of sub-paragraphs 184.1(a) and 184.1(b) of this Article, if at any time by reason of the suspension or curtailment of postal services in any territory, the Company is unable effectively to convene a general meeting by notices sent through the post, a general meeting may be convened by a public announcement (as defined below) and such notice shall be deemed to have been duly served on all Members entitled thereto at noon (New York time) on the day on which the said public announcement is made. In any such case the Company shall put a full copy of the notice of the general meeting on its website. A "public announcement" shall mean disclosure in a press release reported by a financial news service or in a document publicly filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to sections 13, 14 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

185.

A notice may be given by the Company to the persons entitled to a Share in consequence of the death or bankruptcy of a Member by sending or delivering it, in any manner authorised by these Articles for the giving of notice to a Member, addressed to them at the address, if any, supplied by them for that purpose.

To give effect to any such sale, the Company may appoint any person to execute as transferor an instrument of transfer of such Share or stock and such instrument of transfer shall be as effective as if it had been executed by the Member or person entitled by transmission to such Share or stock. The Company shall account to the Member or other person entitled to such Share or stock for the net proceeds of such sale by carrying all monies in respect thereof to a separate account which shall be a permanent debt of the Company and the Company shall be deemed to be a debtor and not a trustee in respect thereof for such Member or other person. Monies carried to such separate account may either be employed in the business of the Company or invested in such investments (other than shares of the Company or its holding company if any) as the Directors may from time to time think fit.

189.3.

To the extent necessary in order to comply with any laws or regulations to which the Company is subject in relation to escheatment, abandonment of property or other similar or analogous laws or regulations ("Applicable Escheatment Laws"), the Company may deal with any Share of any Member and any unclaimed cash payments relating to such Share in any manner which it sees fit, including transferring or selling such Share and transferring to third parties any unclaimed cash payments relating to such Share.

189.4.

The Company may only exercise the powers granted to it in paragraph 189.1 above in circumstances where it has complied with, or procured compliance with, the required procedures (as set out in the Applicable Escheatment Laws) with respect to attempting to identify and locate the relevant member of the Company.

B-48

189.5.

Any stock transfer form to be executed by the Company in order to sell or transfer a Share pursuant to article 189.1 may be executed in accordance with Article 28.1.

DESTRUCTION OF DOCUMENTS

190.

Subject to applicable law, the Company may destroy:

190.1.

any dividend mandate or any variation or cancellation thereof or any notification of change of name or address, at any time after the expiry of two (2) years from the date such mandate variation, cancellation or notification was recorded by the Company;

190.2.

any instrument of transfer of Shares which has been registered, at any time after the expiry of six (6) years from the date of registration; and

190.3.

any other document on the basis of which any entry in the Register was made, at any time after the expiry of six (6) years from the date an entry in the Register was first made in respect of it;

and it shall be presumed conclusively in favour of the Company that every share certificate (if any) so destroyed was a valid certificate duly and properly sealed and that every instrument of transfer so destroyed was a valid and effective instrument duly and properly registered and that every other document destroyed hereunder was a valid and effective document in accordance with the recorded particulars thereof in the books or records of the Company provided always that:

(a)

the foregoing provisions of this Article shall apply only to the destruction of a document in good faith and without express notice to the Company (by a Member or a court) that the preservation of such document was relevant to a claim;



(b)

nothing contained in this Article shall be construed as imposing upon the Company any liability in respect of the destruction of any such document earlier than as aforesaid or in any case where the conditions of proviso (a) above are not fulfilled; and



(c)

references in this Article to the destruction of any document include references to its disposal in any manner.

WINDING UP

191.

If the Company shall be wound up and the assets available for distribution among the Members as such shall be insufficient to repay the whole of the paid up or credited as paid up share capital, such assets shall be distributed so that, as nearly as may be, the losses shall be borne by the Members in proportion to the capital paid up or credited as paid up at the commencement of the winding up on the Shares held by them respectively. If in a winding up the assets available for distribution among the Members shall be more than sufficient to repay the whole of the share capital paid up or credited as paid up at the commencement of the winding up, the excess shall be distributed among the Members in proportion to the capital at the commencement of the winding up paid up or credited as paid up on the said Shares held by them respectively. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Article shall not affect the rights of the Members holding Shares issued upon special terms and conditions.

191.1.

In case of a sale by the liquidator under section 601 of the Companies Act, the liquidator may by the contract of sale agree so as to bind all the Members, for the allotment to the Members directly, of the proceeds of sale in proportion to their respective interests in the Company and may further, by the contract, limit a time at the expiration of which obligations or Shares not accepted or required to be sold shall be deemed to have been

B-49

irrevocably refused and be at the disposal of the Company, but so that nothing herein contained shall be taken to diminish, prejudice or affect the rights of dissenting Members conferred by the said section.

191.2.

The power of sale of the liquidator shall include a power to sell wholly or partially for debentures, debenture stock, or other obligations of another company, either then already constituted or about to be constituted for the purpose of carrying out the sale.

192.

If the Company is wound up, the liquidator, with the sanction of a Special Resolution and any other sanction required by the Companies Act, may divide amongst the Members in specie or kind the whole or any part of the assets of the Company (whether they shall consist of property of the same kind or not), and, for such purpose, may value any assets and determine how the division shall be carried out as between the Members or different classes of Members. The liquidator, with the like sanction, may vest the whole or any part of such assets in trustees upon such trusts for the benefit of the contributories as, with the like sanction, he or she determines, but so that no Member shall be compelled to accept any assets upon which there is a liability.

INDEMNITY

193.

193.1.

Subject to the provisions of, and so far as may be permitted by, the Companies Act, every Director and Secretary shall be entitled to be indemnified by the Company against all costs, charges, losses, expenses and liabilities incurred by him or her in the execution and discharge of his or her duties or in relation thereto, or in his or her capacity as an officer, including any liability incurred by him in defending any proceedings, civil or criminal, which relate to anything done or omitted or alleged to have been done or omitted by him as a director, an officer or employee of the Company and in which judgement is given in his or her favour (or the proceedings are otherwise disposed of without any finding or admission of any material breach of duty on his or her part) or in which he or she is acquitted or in connection with any application under any statute for relief from liability in respect of any such act or omission in which relief is granted to him by the Court.

193.2.

As far as permissible under the Companies Act, the Company shall indemnify any current or former Official (excluding any Director or Secretary in respect only of their role as Director or Secretary of the Company) against expenses, including attorneys' fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, other than an action by or in the right of the Enterprise in respect of which the Official serves or has served as an Official, to which he or she was, is, or is threatened to be, made a party by reason of the fact that he or she is or was such an Official, provided always that the indemnity contained in this Article 193.2 shall not extend to any matter which would render it void pursuant to the Companies Act.

193.3.

In the case of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by or in the right of an Enterprise in respect of which a current or former Official serves or has served, the Company shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by the Companies Act, each person indicated in Article 193.2 against expenses, including attorneys' fees actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defence or the settlement thereof, except no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for fraud or dishonesty in the performance of his or her duty to the relevant Enterprise unless and only to the

B-50

extent that the Court or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the Court shall deem proper.

193.4.

As far as permissible under the Companies Act, expenses, including attorneys' fees, incurred in defending any action, suit or proceeding referred to in this Article shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of a written affirmation by or on behalf of the Director, Secretary, Official or other indemnitee of a good faith belief that the criteria for indemnification have been satisfied and a written undertaking to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that he or she is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorised by these Articles.



193.5.

It being the policy of the Company that indemnification of the persons specified in this Article shall be made to the fullest extent permitted by law, the indemnification provided by this Article shall not be deemed exclusive (a) of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under the Memorandum, Articles, any agreement, any insurance purchased by the Company, any vote of Members or disinterested Directors, or pursuant to the direction (however embodied) of any court of competent jurisdiction, or otherwise, both as to action in his or her official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office, (b) of the power of any Enterprise to indemnify any Official, to the same extent and in the same situations and subject to the same determinations as are hereinabove set forth with respect to a Director, Secretary or Official or (c) of any amendments or replacements of the Companies Act which permit for greater indemnification of the persons specified in this Article and any such amendment or replacement of the Companies Act shall hereby be incorporated into these Articles. As used in this Article 193.5, references to the "Company" include all constituent companies in a consolidation or merger in which the Company or any predecessor to the Company by consolidation or merger was involved. The indemnification provided by this Article shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a Director, executive, officer or trustee and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors, and administrators of such a person.



193.6.

The Directors shall have power to purchase and maintain for any Director, the Secretary or other officers or employees of the Company insurance against any such liability as referred to in section 235 of the Companies Act and such insurance in respect of Officials as the Directors deem to be appropriate.



193.7.

The Company may additionally indemnify any employee or agent of the Company or any director, executive, officer, employee or agent of any of its subsidiaries to the fullest extent permitted by law.

194.

The financial year of the Company shall be as prescribed by the Board from time to time.

B-51

BUSINESS COMBINATION

196.

196.1.

The Company may not engage in any business combination, or vote, consent, or otherwise act to authorise a subsidiary of the Company to engage in any business combination, with, with respect to, proposed by or on behalf of, or pursuant to any written or oral agreement, arrangement, relationship, understanding, or otherwise with, any interested Member of the Company or any affiliate or associate of the interested Member for a period of three (3) years following the date that the Member became an interested Member unless:

(a)

prior to the date that the Member became an interested Member, the business combination was approved by a committee of the Board formed in accordance with Article 196.3; or



(b)

at or following the date that the Member became an interested Member, the business combination is approved by a committee of the Board formed in accordance with Article 196.3 and is authorized by a Special Resolution of the Members. In determining whether the Special Resolution has been adopted by the general meeting, votes cast with respect to Shares of interested Members and their affiliates and associates shall not be taken into account.

196.2.

If a good faith definitive proposal regarding a business combination is made in writing to the Board, a committee of the Board formed in accordance with Article 196.3 shall consider and take action on the proposal and respond in writing within thirty (30) days after receipt of the proposal by the Company, setting forth its decision regarding the proposal.

196.3.

When a business combination is proposed pursuant to this Article 196, the Board shall promptly form a committee composed solely of one or more disinterested Directors. The committee shall take action on the proposal by the affirmative vote of a majority of committee members. No larger proportion or number of votes shall be required. Notwithstanding anything in these Articles to the contrary, subject to applicable law, the committee shall not be subject to any direction or control by the Board with respect to the committee's consideration of, or any action concerning, a business combination pursuant to this Article 196. If the Board has no disinterested Directors, the Board shall select three or more disinterested persons to be committee members. Committee members shall act in accordance with the standard of conduct applicable to the Directors and shall be indemnified in accordance with Article 193. For purposes of this Article 196.3, a Director or person is "disinterested" if the Director or person is neither an officer nor an employee, nor has been an officer or employee within five (5) years preceding the formation of the committee pursuant to this Article 196.3, of the Company or of a related company.

196.4.

This Article 196 may only be amended by Special Resolution. In determining whether the relevant resolution has been approved by the requisite majority, votes cast with respect to Shares of interested Members and their affiliates and associates shall not be taken into account. Notwithstanding any such amendment, unless determined otherwise by the Board, this Article 196 (as its stands prior to any such amendment) shall apply to any business combination of the Company with an interested Member who became an interested Member before the effective date of the amendment of this Article 196.

B-52

The shares or securities subject to the options, warrants, rights, or conversion privileges held by a person shall be deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of outstanding shares or securities of the class or series owned by the person, but shall not be deemed to be outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage of the class or series owned by any other person. A person shall be deemed the beneficial owner of shares and securities beneficially owned by any relative or spouse of the person or any relative of the spouse, residing in the home of the person, any trust or estate in which the person owns fifteen percent (15%) or more of the total beneficial interest or serves as trustee or executor or in a similar fiduciary capacity, any company in which the person owns fifteen percent (15%) or more of the equity, and any affiliate of the person.

(c)

any sale, lease, exchange, mortgage, pledge, transfer, or other disposition (in a single transaction or a series of transactions), other than sales of goods or services in the ordinary course of business, to or with the interested Member or any affiliate or associate of the interested Member, other than to or with the Company or a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, of assets of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company (1) having an aggregate market value equal to ten percent (10%) or more of the aggregate market value of all the assets, determined on a consolidated basis, of the Company, (2) having an aggregate market value equal to ten percent (10%) or more of the aggregate market value of all the outstanding Shares of the Company, or (3) representing ten percent (10%) or more of the earning power or net income, determined on a consolidated basis, of the Company, except a cash dividend or distribution paid or made pro rata to all Members of the Company;

B-54

purchase shares offered, or a dividend or distribution paid or made, pro rata to all Members of the Company other than for the purpose, directly or indirectly, of facilitating or effecting a subsequent transaction that would have been a business combination if the dividend or distribution had not been made;

(e)

the adoption of any plan or proposal for the liquidation or dissolution of the Company, or any reincorporation of the Company in another jurisdiction, proposed by or on behalf of, or pursuant to any written or oral agreement, arrangement, relationship, understanding, or otherwise with, the interested Member or any affiliate or associate of the interested Member;

A person's beneficial ownership of fifteen percent (15%) or more of the voting power of a company's outstanding shares entitled to vote in the election of directors creates a presumption that the person has control of the company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a person is not considered to have control of a company if the person holds voting power, in good faith, as an agent, bank, broker, nominee, custodian, or trustee for one or more beneficial owners who do not individually or as a group have control of the company;



(viii)

If a person who has not been a beneficial owner of fifteen percent (15%) or more of the voting power of the outstanding Shares entitled to vote of the Company immediately prior to an acquisition of Shares by, or recapitalisation of, the Company or similar action shall become a beneficial owner of fifteen percent (15%) or more of the voting power solely as a result of the share acquisition, recapitalisation, or similar action, the person shall not be deemed to be the beneficial owner of fifteen percent (15%) or more of the voting power for purposes of (1) or (2) above, unless:

(a)

the share acquisition, recapitalisation, conversion, or similar action was proposed by or on behalf of, or pursuant to any agreement, arrangement, relationship, understanding, or otherwise (whether or not in writing) with, the person or any affiliate or associate of the person; or



(b)

the person thereafter acquires beneficial ownership, directly or indirectly, of outstanding Shares entitled to vote of the Company and, immediately after the acquisition, is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of fifteen percent (15%) or more of the voting power of the outstanding Shares entitled to vote of the Company.



(x)

an "interested Member" does not include:



(a)

the Company or any of its subsidiaries;



(b)

a savings, employee stock ownership, or other employee benefit plan of the Company or its subsidiary, or a fiduciary of the plan when acting in a fiduciary capacity pursuant to the plan; or

securities exchange registered under Exchange Act on which the shares are listed; or
