unexercised following the effective date of the 2026 Plan. The maximum number of shares that may be delivered upon the exercise of incentive stock options will be equal to 17,500,000 (the “ISO Limit”). The shares covered by the 2026 Plan may be authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares or shares reacquired by Indivior U.S. in any manner or any combination of the foregoing.
The sum of the grant date fair value of equity-based awards and the amount of any cash compensation granted or paid, as applicable, to a non-employee director in any fiscal year will not exceed $1,000,000.
The compensation committee of the Indivior U.S. board of directors (the “Compensation Committee”) (or a subcommittee thereof or such other committee of the Indivior U.S. board of directors as may be designated by the Indivior U.S. board of directors) will administer the 2026 Plan and any sub-plans. The Indivior U.S. board of directors may, in its discretion, administer the 2026 Plan or any sub-plan with respect to awards granted to non-employee directors. The 2026 Plan provides that the Compensation Committee may from time to time delegate (i) its authority to grant awards or (ii) the authority (including a power to sub-delegate) to perform specified functions under the 2026 Plan to one or more members of the Indivior U.S. board of directors or one or more officers or employees of Indivior U.S. or an affiliate, provided that no officer will be delegated such authority to grant awards to individuals who are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act or to officers or directors who have been delegated the authority to grant or amend awards under the 2026 Plan.
The 2026 Plan provides that awards may be granted to any director, officer, employee or consultant of Indivior U.S. or any of its subsidiaries (including any prospective director, officer, employee or consultant to the extent permitted in accordance with Form S-8 under the Exchange Act). The Compensation Committee determines which of such directors, officers, employees and consultants will be granted awards. No person is entitled to participate in the 2026 Plan as a matter of right. Only those directors, officers, employees and consultants who are selected to receive grants by the Compensation Committee may participate in the 2026 Plan. The 2026 Plan provides that the Compensation Committee may grant or issue stock options (including incentive stock options), stock appreciation rights, restricted shares, restricted stock units, cash incentive awards and other equity-based or equity-related awards, or any combination thereof.
In the event that a change in control of Indivior U.S. occurs and the surviving entity or successor corporation in such change in control does not assume or substitute outstanding awards (or any portion thereof) granted under the 2026 Plan, then, unless the Compensation Committee determines otherwise, such awards will fully vest and become fully exercisable, as applicable, as of immediately prior to such change in control, with performance-based awards vesting at either target level, which may be pro-rated, or actual achievement, as determined by the Compensation Committee. In addition, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, upon or in anticipation of a change in control, terminate outstanding awards after giving the participant an opportunity to exercise the awards or terminate the awards for no consideration if the awards have no value (as determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion).
In the event of any extraordinary dividend, extraordinary distribution, recapitalization, rights offering, share split, reverse share split, split-up or spin-off, the 2026 Plan provides that the Compensation Committee will make equitable adjustments as the Compensation Committee determines appropriate. In the event of any reorganization, merger, consolidation, combination, repurchase or exchange of shares or other securities of Indivior U.S., issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase shares or other securities of Indivior U.S. or other similar corporate transaction or event or other unusual, extraordinarily or non-recurring event, the 2026 Plan provides that the Compensation Committee may make any equitable adjustment described under the preceding sentence and may also provide that (i) outstanding awards will be cancelled in exchange for a cash payment (or no payment in the case of out-of-the-money options and SARs) and (ii) options and SARs will expire if not exercised prior to a specified date.
The 2026 Plan provides that, subject to applicable law, the Indivior U.S. board of directors may amend, modify, or terminate the 2026 Plan at any time, except that no amendment or termination may, without the consent of the affected participant, materially and adversely affect any rights of such participant with respect to a previously granted award unless otherwise provided in the applicable award agreement. The 2026 Plan will generally require Indivior U.S. to obtain stockholder approval for any amendment that would (other than in connection with certain corporate events, as described above): increase the Share Limit and ISO Limit under the 2026 Plan; expand the class of employees or other individuals eligible to participate in the 2026 Plan; extend the expiration date of the 2026 Plan; or allow for the repricing of options or stock appreciation rights.
