THIS INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is effective as of [date].

BETWEEN:

(1) SMURFIT WESTROCK US HOLDINGS CORPORATION, a corporation incorporated and organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, with its registered office at c/o The Corporation Trust Company, Corporation Trust Center, 1209 Orange Street, City of Wilmington, County of New Castle, DE 19801, United States of America (the “Company”);

AND

(2) [Name] of [address] (the “Indemnitee”).

WHEREAS:

A. The Company is a wholly owned subsidiary of Smurfit WestRock plc, a public limited company incorporated under the laws of Ireland with registration number 607515 (the “Parent” and, together with its subsidiaries, the “Group”).

B. The Board (as defined below) believes that it is in the Group’s best interests for the Group to attract and retain highly skilled and competent directors, secretaries and Section 16 Officers (as defined below) due to direct and indirect benefits the Company derives or expects to derive from the Parent as its wholly owned subsidiary, including access to capital and the ability to compensate the Company’s employees and other service providers with equity awards exercisable for or settled in the Parent’s publicly-traded shares.

C. Highly skilled and competent persons are reluctant to serve public companies as directors, secretaries and / or Section 16 Officers unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance and indemnification against inordinate risks of claims and actions against them arising out of their service to and activities on behalf of such companies and uncertainties relating to indemnification increase the difficulty of attracting and retaining such persons.

D. The Board has determined that the Group’s inability to attract and retain such persons is detrimental to the best interests of the Company and the Parent, as its sole shareholder, and that the Company should act to assure such persons that there will be increased certainty of such protection.

E. The Company desires to ensure that the Group, the Parent and the Parent’s shareholders, as well as the Company as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, benefit from the services of highly skilled and competent persons such as the Indemnitee, and has requested that the Indemnitee serve as a [director][secretary][Section 16 Officer] of the Parent.

F. It is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company to contractually obligate itself to indemnify the Indemnitee to the Fullest Extent Permitted By Law (as defined below) so that the Indemnitee will serve or continue to serve the Parent free from undue concern that the Indemnitee will not be so indemnified.

G. Due to restrictions imposed by Irish law, the Constitution (as defined below) of the Parent does not confer indemnification and advancement rights on its directors, secretary and Section 16 Officers as broad as the indemnification and advancement rights that are customarily provided to the directors, secretary and Section 16 Officers of a company organized under the laws of a U.S. state.

1

H. In partial consideration of the above premises and of the Indemnitee serving or continuing to serve the Parent, the Company has agreed to enter into this Agreement with the Indemnitee.

I. This Agreement is a supplement to and in furtherance of the Constitution and any resolutions adopted pursuant thereto, as well as any rights of the Indemnitee under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy, and is not a substitute therefor, and does not diminish or abrogate any rights of the Indemnitee thereunder.

2 Agreement to Serve

The Indemnitee is a [director][secretary][Section 16 Officer] of the Parent. This Agreement does not create or otherwise establish any right on the part of the Indemnitee to be and continue to be elected or appointed or employed as a [director][secretary][Section 16 Officer] of the Parent or any other Group Company and does not create an employment contract or other employment arrangement between the Company and the Indemnitee.

3 Indemnity of Indemnitee

3.1 Subject to clause 9, the Company shall, to the Fullest Extent Permitted By Law and without prejudice to any other indemnity to which the Indemnitee may otherwise be entitled, indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnitee against all damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, penalties, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and reasonable Expenses if the Indemnitee was, is or becomes a party to or witness or other participant in, or is threatened to be made a party to or witness or other participant in, any Proceeding, in whole or in part by reason of (or arising in whole or in part out of) the fact or assertion that the Indemnitee (i) is, or was, serving as a director, officer, employee, agent, or fiduciary of the Parent, the Company or another Group Company or (ii) is or was serving, at the request of the Company or another Group Company, as a director, officer, employee, agent, or fiduciary of any other company, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other Entity or enterprise or by reason of anything done or not done by the Indemnitee in any such capacity. The Parties hereto intend that this Agreement shall provide indemnification in excess of that expressly permitted by the Constitution, the Parent Deed of Indemnification or Irish law.

6

3.2 Subject to clause 9, if the Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification for some or a portion of Expenses, damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement, but not the total amount thereof, the Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Indemnitee for such portion of the Expenses, damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, penalties, fines, amounts paid in settlement and any other amounts that the Indemnitee becomes legally obligated to pay in connection with any Proceeding to which the Indemnitee is entitled.

4 Determination of Entitlement to Indemnification

4.1 The Indemnitee shall request indemnification pursuant to this Agreement by notice in writing to the secretary of the Company. The secretary shall, promptly upon receipt of the Indemnitee's request for indemnification, advise in writing the Board or such other person or persons empowered to make the determination as provided in clause 4.2 that the Indemnitee has made such request for indemnification. Subject to clause 9, upon making such request for indemnification, the Indemnitee shall be presumed to be entitled to indemnification hereunder and the Company shall have the burden of proof in the making of any determination contrary to such presumption.

4.2 Upon written request by the Indemnitee for indemnification pursuant to clause 3.1, and subject to the presumption set forth in clause 4.1, the entitlement of the Indemnitee to indemnification pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be determined in the following circumstances and by the following person or persons who, in each instance, shall be empowered to make such determination:

4.2.1 if a Change in Control shall not have occurred,

(a) by the Board, by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum;

(b) by a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even though less than a quorum;

(c) if there are no Disinterested Directors, or if such Disinterested Directors (by majority vote) so direct, or if the Indemnitee so requests, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Indemnitee; and

4.2.2 if a Change in Control shall have occurred,

(a) by Independent Counsel in a written opinion to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to the Indemnitee; or

(b) at the Indemnitee's sole option, the Indemnitee shall have the right to direct that such determination be made in the manner provided in clause 4.2.1.

7

4.3 For the purposes of clause 4.2.1(b), Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board and reasonably approved by the Indemnitee and, for the purposes of clause 4.2.2, Independent Counsel shall be reasonably selected by the Indemnitee. Upon failure of the Board to so select such Independent Counsel or upon failure of the Indemnitee to so approve, such Independent Counsel shall be selected by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association. Such determination of entitlement to indemnification pursuant to clause 4.2, regardless of whether by the Board or Independent Counsel, shall be made not later than 60 days after receipt by the Company of a written request for indemnification. The Indemnitee shall cooperate with the Board or Independent Counsel, as applicable, making such determination, including providing, upon reasonable request, any documentation or information which is reasonably necessary for such determination which is not privileged and which is reasonably available to the Indemnitee. Subject to clause 9, any reasonable Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the Indemnitee's request for indemnification hereunder shall be borne by the Company irrespective of the outcome of the determination of the Indemnitee's entitlement to indemnification. If the person or persons making such determination shall determine that the Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification as to part, but not all, of the application for indemnification, such persons may, subject to clause 9, reasonably pro rate such partial indemnification among such claims, issues or matters in respect of which indemnification is requested.

5 Advancement of Expenses

Subject to clause 9, all reasonable Expenses incurred by, and advances of disbursements required of, the Indemnitee in connection with any Proceeding and in connection with the Indemnitee seeking an adjudication or award in arbitration pursuant to this Agreement shall, at the request of the Indemnitee, be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of any such Proceeding, adjudication or arbitration as promptly as possible, and in any event within 20 days after the receipt by the Company of a statement or statements from the Indemnitee requesting such advance or advances from time to time. Such statement or statements shall reasonably evidence the Expenses incurred by, or disbursements required of, the Indemnitee in connection therewith. Notwithstanding any determination as to entitlement to indemnification made pursuant to clause 4 or clause 6, the Indemnitee agrees that it will forthwith (and, in any event, not later than 20 days from the date the Company provides a written demand therefor) repay any advance of funds made by the Company pursuant to this clause 5 if it is ultimately determined under applicable law that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified. The Parties intend that the foregoing constitute the undertaking required pursuant to Section 145(e) of the Delaware General Corporation Law. Subject to clause 9, the Company shall have the burden of proof in any determination under this clause 5. No amounts advanced hereunder shall be deemed an extension of credit by the Company to the Indemnitee. To the Fullest Extent Permitted By Law, advances shall be unsecured and interest free and the Indemnitee’s right to advances under this clause 5 shall in all events continue until final disposition of any Proceeding, including any appeal therein.

6 Remedies of the Indemnitee in Cases of Determination Not to Indemnify or to Advance Expenses or Failure to Timely Pay

6.1 In the event that: (a) a determination is made that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification hereunder pursuant to clause 4.2; (b) payment has not been timely made following a determination of entitlement to indemnification pursuant to clause 4; or (c) Expenses or disbursements required of the Indemnitee are not advanced pursuant to clause 5, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to apply to any court of the State of Delaware for a determination of the Indemnitee's entitlement to such indemnification, indemnification payment or advance.

6.2 Alternatively to clause 6.1, except for an application to be indemnified for any liability arising from a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company for which the Indemnitee shall have been adjudicated liable (which must be brought in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or the court in which such Proceeding was brought), the Indemnitee, at the Indemnitee's sole option, may seek an award in arbitration to be conducted by a single arbitrator pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association, such award to be made within 60 days following the Indemnitee's filing of the request for arbitration. The Company shall not oppose the Indemnitee's right to seek any such adjudication or award in arbitration or any other claim.

8

6.3 A judicial proceeding or arbitration pursuant to this clause 6 shall be made de novo and the Indemnitee shall not be prejudiced by reason of a determination otherwise made hereunder (if so made) that the Indemnitee is not entitled to indemnification. If the court or arbitrator shall determine that the Indemnitee is entitled to any indemnification or advance hereunder, the Company shall pay all reasonable Expenses actually incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with such adjudication or award in arbitration (including, but not limited to, any appellate proceedings) (the "Clause 6 Expenses"), to the extent not prohibited by applicable law (which shall include applicable stock exchange rules), regardless of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification or advancement of Expenses; provided, however, that the Indemnitee agrees that it will forthwith (and, in any event, not later than 20 days from the date the Company provides a written demand therefor) repay such Clause 6 Expenses in the event that any allegation of fraud or dishonesty is proved against the Indemnitee in the Proceeding in respect of which the Indemnitee was seeking indemnification or an advance of monies hereunder.

7 Other Rights to Indemnification

7.1 The indemnification and advancement of reasonable Expenses provided by this Agreement shall be in addition to any other right to which the Indemnitee previously, now or in the future may be entitled under any provision of the Company Organizational Documents, any other agreement (including the Parent Deed of Indemnification or any agreement between the Indemnitee and any other Group Company), vote of shareholders of the Company, the Board or Disinterested Directors, provision of law, or otherwise; provided that the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any payment pursuant to this Agreement for which payment has been actually made to or on behalf of the Indemnitee by or on behalf of any of the Group Companies under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except in respect of any excess beyond the amount paid under any such insurance policy or other indemnity provisions. As between the Parent and the Company, the Parent shall be the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to the Indemnitee are primary and the obligations of the Company to advance Expenses and to provide indemnification for the same Expenses, damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, penalties, fines, and amounts paid in settlement are secondary). To the extent not satisfied by the Parent in accordance with the Parent Deed of Indemnification within five Business Days of a written request by the Indemnitee for indemnification or advancement, the Company shall be required to advance the full amount of Expenses incurred by the Indemnitee and shall be required to indemnify the Indemnitee for the full amount of damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, penalties, fines, amounts paid in settlement, and reasonable Expenses in settlement as required by (and subject to) the terms of this Agreement, the Company Organizational Documents, or any other agreement between the Company and the Indemnitee, without regard to any rights to indemnification or advancement of Expenses the Indemnitee may have against other Entities (other than the Parent).

9

7.2 To the Fullest Extent Permitted By Law, if the indemnification provided for in this Agreement is unavailable to Indemnitee for any reason whatsoever (other than pursuant to the terms hereof), the Company, in lieu of indemnifying Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount incurred by Indemnitee, whether for Expenses, damages, losses, liabilities, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement, in connection with any claim, including, without limitation, claims for contribution that may be brought against Indemnitee by directors, officers, employees or agents of the Parent (other than Indemnitee) who may be jointly liable with Indemnitee, relating to an event or occurrence giving rise to indemnification under this Agreement, in such proportion as is deemed fair and reasonable in light of all of the circumstances of such Proceeding in order to reflect (i) the relative benefits received by the Parent and the Company, on one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, as a result of the event(s) and/or transaction(s) giving cause to such Proceeding; and/or (ii) the relative fault of the Parent and the Company (and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents), on one hand, and Indemnitee, on the other hand, in connection with such event(s) and/or transaction(s).

7.3 In the event of any payment under this Agreement, the Group Companies shall be subrogated to the extent of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Indemnitee, who shall execute at the request of the Company all papers required and take all action necessary to secure such rights, including execution of such documents as are necessary to enable the Company to bring suit to enforce such rights.

8 Attorneys' Fees and Other Expenses to Enforce Agreement

In the event that the Indemnitee is subject to or intervenes in any Proceeding in which the validity or enforceability of this Agreement is at issue or seeks an adjudication or award in arbitration to enforce the Indemnitee's rights under, or to recover damages for breach of, this Agreement, the Indemnitee, shall, subject to clause 9, be entitled to recover from the Company and shall be indemnified by the Company against, any actual Expenses reasonably incurred by the Indemnitee; provided that in bringing any action for adjudication or award in arbitration to enforce the Indemnitee's rights, the Indemnitee acted in good faith.

9 Limitations of Indemnification

9.1 Notwithstanding any other terms of this Agreement, no provision of this Agreement shall indemnify, the Indemnitee against, or exempt the Indemnitee from, any liability for bad faith, fraud or dishonesty proved against the Indemnitee.

9.2 Notwithstanding any other terms of this Agreement, no provision of this Agreement shall indemnify the Indemnitee against, or exempt the Indemnitee from, any liability arising in connection with a Proceeding by or in the right of the Company if the Indemnitee is adjudged liable to the Company unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (or the court in which such Proceeding was brought) determines that despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, the Indemnitee is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnification for such Expenses that such court shall deem proper.

10 Duration of Agreement

This Agreement shall apply with respect to the Indemnitee's occupation of any of the position(s) described in clause 3.1 of this Agreement prior to the date of this Agreement and with respect to all periods of such service after the date of this Agreement, even though the Indemnitee may have ceased to occupy such positions(s).

10

11 Notice of Proceedings by the Indemnitee

11.1 The Indemnitee agrees promptly to notify the Company in writing upon being served with any summons, citation, subpoena, complaint, indictment, information or other document relating to any Proceeding which may be subject to indemnification hereunder; provided that the failure to so notify the Company will not relieve the Company from any liability it may have to the Indemnitee. With respect to any such Proceeding as to which the Indemnitee notifies the Company of the commencement thereof:

11.1.1 the Company will be entitled to participate therein at its own expense; and

11.1.2 except as otherwise provided below, to the extent that it may wish, the Company jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified will be entitled to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee. After notice from the Company to the Indemnitee of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the Company will not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any Expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnitee in connection with the defense thereof other than, subject to clause 9, reasonable costs of investigation or as otherwise provided below. The Indemnitee shall have the right to employ the Indemnitee's own counsel in such Proceeding, but the fees and Expenses of such counsel incurred after notice from the Company of its assumption of the defense thereof shall be at the expense of the Indemnitee and not subject to indemnification hereunder unless (a) the employment of counsel by the Indemnitee has been authorized by the Company; (b) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnitee there is or may be a conflict of interest between the Company and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such Proceeding; or (c) the Company shall not in fact have employed counsel to assume the defense of such action, in each of which cases, subject to clause 9, the reasonable Expenses of counsel shall be at the expense of the Company.

11.2 Neither the Company nor the Indemnitee shall settle any claim without the prior written consent of the other (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed).

12 Notices

Any notice required to be given hereunder shall be in writing in the English language and shall be served by sending the same by prepaid recorded post, facsimile, email or by delivering the same by hand to the address of the Party or Parties in question as set out below (or such other address as such Party or Parties shall notify the other Parties of in accordance with this clause 13). Any notice sent by post as provided in this clause 13 shall be deemed to have been served five Business Days after dispatch and any notice sent by facsimile or email as provided in this clause 13 shall be deemed to have been served at the time of dispatch and in proving the service of the same it will be sufficient to prove in the case of a letter that such letter was properly stamped, addressed and placed in the post; and in the case of a facsimile or email that such facsimile or email was duly dispatched to a current facsimile number or email address of the addressee.
