or any of their properties or assets except, in the case of clauses (i) and (iii) above, for any such conflict, breach, violation

necessary for the Company to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement have been obtained and are in effect.

governing instrument, as applicable), (ii) in default in any respect, and no event has occurred which, with notice or lapse of time or
both, would constitute such a default, in the due performance or observance of any term, covenant or condition contained in any indenture,
mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease or other agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it is bound or to
which any of its property or assets is subject or (iii) in violation in any respect of any law, ordinance, governmental rule, regulation
or court order, decree or judgment to which it or its property or assets may be subject (including, without limitation, those administered

of their respective businesses as described in the General Disclosure Package and the Prospectus (collectively, the “Governmental
Permits”) except where any failures to possess or make the same would not, singularly or in the aggregate, reasonably be
expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The Company and its subsidiaries are in compliance with all such Governmental Permits, except
where the failure so to comply would not, singularly or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect;
all such Governmental Permits are valid and in full force and effect, except where the validity or failure to be in full force and effect

of any revocation, modification, suspension, termination or invalidation (or proceedings related thereto) of any such Governmental Permit,
which, singularly or in the aggregate, if the subject of an unfavorable decision, ruling or finding, would reasonably be expected to
result in a Material Adverse Effect. The Company has no reason to believe that any such Governmental Permit will not be renewed, except
where the failure to renew would not, singularly or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.
The Company and each of its subsidiaries have filed, obtained, maintained or submitted all material reports, documents, forms, notices,
applications, records,
claims, submissions and supplements or amendments as required by any applicable laws or Governmental Permits, and all such reports, documents,

in the General Disclosure Package, the Company has not received any written notices or correspondence with the FDA, the DEA, the EMA,
the MHRA or any foreign, state or local governmental body exercising comparable authority requiring the termination, suspension or material
modification of any Company Studies or Trials that termination, suspension or material modification would reasonably be expected to have
a Material Adverse Effect and, to the Company’s knowledge, there are no reasonable
grounds for the same. The Company has obtained (or caused to be obtained) informed consent by or on behalf of each human subject who
participated in the Company Studies and Trials. In using or disclosing patient information received by the Company in connection with
the Company Studies or Trials, the Company has complied in all material respects with all federal, state, local or foreign applicable
laws and regulatory rules or requirements, including, without limitation, the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of

properties, except where the failure to be so insured would not reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company
and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries has any reason to believe that it will not be
able to renew its existing insurance coverage as and when such coverage expires or to obtain similar coverage from similar insurers as
may be necessary to continue its business at a cost that would not have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its
subsidiaries has received written notice from any insurer, agent of such insurer or the broker of the Company or any of its subsidiaries

principal executive and principal financial officers, or under their supervision, to provide reasonable assurances that: (i) transactions
are executed in accordance with management’s general or specific authorizations; (ii) transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS and to maintain accountability for assets; (iii) access to assets
is permitted only in accordance with management’s general or specific authorization; (iv) the recorded accountability for assets
is compared with existing assets at reasonable intervals and appropriate action is taken with respect to any differences; and (v) interactive
data in eXtensible Business Reporting Language included or incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement fairly presents the
Commission’s rules and guidelines applicable thereto. The Company’s internal control over financial reporting is effective.

been (A) no material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting (whether or not remediated) and (B) no
change in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially
affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

and its subsidiaries; such disclosure controls and procedures have been designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed
by the Company and its subsidiaries in reports that they file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and
reported within the time periods specified in the Commission’s rules and forms, including controls and procedures designed to ensure
that such information is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures.

accurately in all material respects reflect all transactions referred to in such minutes.

agreements or documents contained in the General Disclosure Package are accurate and complete descriptions of such documents in all material
respects. Other than as described in the General Disclosure Package, no such license, lease, contract or other agreement has been suspended
or terminated for convenience or default by the Company or any of the other parties thereto, and the Company and its subsidiaries have
not received notice of and the Company does not have knowledge of any such pending or threatened suspension or termination.
(tt)

(ww) No Broker’s Fees. Neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries is a party to any contract, agreement or understanding
with any person (other than this Agreement) that would give rise to a valid claim against the Company or any of its subsidiaries or the

any transaction contemplated by this Agreement, the Registration Statement, the General Disclosure Package or the Prospectus.

Issue and Delivery of Shares. On the basis of the representations, warranties
and agreements herein contained, but subject to the terms and conditions herein set forth, the Company agrees to issue to the Underwriters,
and the Underwriters agree, severally and not jointly, to purchase by way of subscription from the Company the respective numbers of
Firm Shares set forth opposite the names of the Underwriters in Schedule A hereto.
The
purchase price per share to be paid by the Underwriters to the Company for the Shares will be $14.10 per Share (the “Purchase
Price”).
The
Company will deliver the Firm Shares to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters, through the facilities
of The Depository Trust Company, issued in such names and in such denominations as the Representatives may direct by notice in writing
to the Company given on or prior to 12:00 Noon, New York time, on the first (1st) full business day preceding the Closing Date against
payment of the aggregate Purchase Price therefor by wire transfer in federal (same day) funds to an account at a bank specified by the
Company payable to the order of the Company for the Firm Shares sold by them all at the offices of Cooley LLP, 55 Hudson Yards, New York,
New York 10001. Time shall be of the essence, and delivery at the time and place specified pursuant to this Agreement is a further condition
of the obligations of each Underwriter hereunder. The time and date of the delivery and closing shall be at 10:00 A.M., New York time,
on February 6, 2025 in accordance with Rule 15c6-1 of the Exchange Act. The time and date of such payment and delivery are herein

for, the Firm Shares may be varied by agreement among the Company and the Representatives.
The
Underwriters may subscribe for all or less than all of the Optional Shares. The price per Share to be paid for the Optional Shares shall
be the Purchase Price, provided, however, that the amount paid by the Underwriters for any Optional Shares shall be reduced
by an amount per Share equal to any dividends declared by the Company and payable on the Firm Shares but not payable on such Optional
Shares. The
Company agrees
to issue to the Underwriters the number of Optional Shares specified in the written notice delivered by the Representatives to the Company
described below and the Underwriters agree, severally and not jointly, to purchase such Optional Shares. Such Optional Shares shall be
purchased from the Company by way of subscription for the account of each Underwriter in the same proportion as the number of Firm Shares
set forth opposite such Underwriter’s name on Schedule A bears to the total number of Firm Shares (subject to adjustment
by the Representatives to eliminate fractions). The option granted hereby may be exercised as to all or any part of the Optional Shares
at any time, and from time to time, provided however, that notice of such exercise must be delivered not more than thirty (30)
days subsequent to the date of this Agreement. No Optional Shares shall be issued and delivered unless the Firm Shares previously have
been, or simultaneously are issued and delivered to the Underwriters. The right to subscribe for the Optional Shares or any portion thereof
may be surrendered and terminated at any time upon notice by the Representatives to the Company.
The
option granted hereby shall be exercised by written notice being given to the Company by the Representatives setting forth the number
of Optional Shares to be purchased by the Underwriters by way of subscription from the Company and the date and time for delivery of
and payment for the Optional Shares. Each date and time for delivery of and payment for the Optional Shares (which may be the Closing
Date, but not earlier) is herein called the “Option Closing Date” and shall in no event be earlier than one
(1) business day nor later than five (5) business days after written notice is given. The Option Closing Date and the Closing Date are
herein called the “Closing Dates.”
The
Company will deliver the Optional Shares to the Representatives for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters through the facilities
of The Depository Trust Company issued in such names and in such denominations as the Representatives may direct by notice in writing
to the Company given at or prior to 12:00 Noon, New York time, on the first (1st) full business day preceding the Option Closing Date
against payment of the aggregate Purchase Price therefor by wire transfer in federal (same day) funds to an account at a bank acceptable
to the Representatives payable to the order of the Company, at the offices of Cooley LLP, 55 Hudson Yards, New York, New York, 10001.
Time shall be of the essence, and delivery at the time and place specified pursuant to this Agreement is a further condition of the obligations
of each Underwriter hereunder. The Option Closing Date and the location of delivery of, and the form of payment for, the Optional Shares
may be varied by agreement between the Company and the Representatives.

several Underwriters propose to offer the Shares for sale upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus.

the prior written consent of the Representatives has been received (each, a “Permitted Free Writing Prospectus”);
provided that the prior written consent of the Representatives hereto shall be deemed to have been given in respect of the Issuer

433 of the Rules and Regulations applicable to any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, including the requirements relating to timely filing

required to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d)
of the Rules and
Regulations a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter that such Underwriter otherwise would not have been
required to file thereunder.
(d)
Ongoing Compliance. If at any time prior to the date when a prospectus relating to the Shares is required to be delivered
(or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) under the Securities Act) any event occurs or condition exists as a result
of which the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented would include any untrue statement of a material fact, or omit to state any material
fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made when the Prospectus is delivered
(or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of the Rules and Regulations), not misleading, or if it is necessary at any
time to amend or supplement the Registration Statement, or the Prospectus to comply with the Securities Act, that the Company will promptly
notify the Representatives thereof and upon their request will prepare an appropriate amendment or supplement or upon their request make
an appropriate filing pursuant to Section 13 or 14 of the Exchange Act in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives which

Registration Statement or declared effective as soon as possible. The Company will furnish without charge to each Underwriter and to

In case any Underwriter is required to deliver a prospectus (or in lieu thereof, the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of the Rules and
Regulations) relating to the Shares, the Company upon the request of the Representatives will prepare promptly an amended or supplemented
Prospectus as may be necessary to permit compliance with the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act and deliver to such
Underwriter as many copies as such Underwriter may request of such amended or supplemented Prospectus complying with Section 10(a)(3)

or would include an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or would omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein
or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances prevailing at the subsequent time, not misleading,

cease until it is amended or supplemented and has promptly amended or will promptly amend or supplement, at its
own expense, such

the amounts otherwise payable by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, an amount equal to the VAT chargeable on any such supply of
goods and services and the Underwriters shall issue the Company (to the extent applicable) with an appropriate VAT invoice in respect

pursuant to this Agreement in respect of any cost, expense or other amount and that cost, expense or other amount includes an amount
in
respect of VAT
where a part of the VAT is irrecoverable VAT, then the Company, to the extent applicable, shall, in addition, pay an amount equal to
the irrecoverable VAT to the Underwriters. For the purposes of this Agreement, “VAT” means value added tax
as provided for in the Value-Added Tax Consolidation Act 2010 (“VATA”) and subordinate legislation made under
VATA as amended, modified or re-enacted (whether before or after the date of this Agreement) and any similar sales, consumption, use
or turnover tax whether within Ireland or elsewhere in the world. For the purposes of this Agreement, “irrecoverable VAT”
means any amount in respect of VAT which a party has incurred and in respect of which that party is not entitled to a refund (by way
of credit or repayment) from the relevant Tax Authority pursuant to and determined in accordance with Chapter 1 of Part 8 of the VATA
and any regulations made under that Act or similar provisions elsewhere in the world.

directors, officers, managers, members, employees, representatives and agents and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within
the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively the “Underwriter Indemnified
Parties,” and each, an “Underwriter Indemnified Party”) against any loss, claim, damage, expense
or liability whatsoever (or any action, investigation or proceeding in respect thereof), joint or several, to which such Underwriter
Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability,
action, investigation or proceeding arises out of or is based upon (A) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer
information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Rules and Regulations, the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any materials or information provided to investors by, or with the approval
of, the Company in connection with the marketing of the offering of the Shares, including any roadshow or investor presentations made
to investors by the Company (whether in person or electronically) (“Marketing Materials”) or (B) the omission
or alleged omission to state in any Written Testing-the-Waters Communication, the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus,
any “issuer information” filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Rules and Regulations, the Registration
Statement, the Prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any Marketing Materials, a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, and shall reimburse each Underwriter Indemnified Party promptly upon
demand for any legal fees or other expenses reasonably incurred and documented by that Underwriter Indemnified Party in connection with
investigating, or preparing to defend, or defending against, or appearing as a third party witness in respect of, or otherwise incurred
in connection with, any such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding, as such fees and expenses
are incurred; provided, however, that the Company shall not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss,
claim, damage, expense or liability arises out of or is based upon an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement in, or omission or
alleged omission from the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any such amendment or supplement thereto,
any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus or any Marketing Materials made in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished
to the Company through the Representatives by or on behalf of any Underwriter specifically for use therein, which information the parties
hereto agree is limited to the Underwriters’ Information. Each indemnity agreement in this Section 7(a) is not exclusive
and is in addition to each other indemnity agreement in this Section 7(a) and each other liability which the Company might have
under this Agreement or otherwise, and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available under this Agreement,
at law or in equity to any Underwriter Indemnified Party.
(b)
Indemnification of Company by the Underwriters. Each Underwriter, severally and not jointly, shall indemnify and hold harmless
the Company and each of its directors, and each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls
the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (collectively the “Company
Indemnified Parties” and each a “Company Indemnified Party”) against any loss, claim, damage,
expense or liability whatsoever (or any action, investigation or proceeding in respect thereof), joint or several, to which such Company
Indemnified Party may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability,
action, investigation or proceeding arises out of or is based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material
fact contained in the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information” filed or required
to be filed pursuant
to Rule 433(d) of the Rules and Regulations, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto, or
(ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Preliminary Prospectus, any Issuer Free Writing Prospectus, any “issuer information”
filed or required to be filed pursuant to Rule 433(d) of the Rules and Regulations, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or in
any amendment or supplement thereto, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading,
but in each case only to the extent that the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in
reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company through the Representatives by or on behalf of that
Underwriter specifically for use therein, which information the parties hereto agree is limited to the Underwriters’ Information,
and shall reimburse the Company Indemnified Parties for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with
investigating or preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as third party witness in connection with any such loss, claim,
damage, liability, action, investigation or proceeding, as such fees and expenses are incurred. This indemnity agreement is not exclusive
and will be in addition to any liability which the Underwriters might otherwise have and shall not limit any rights or remedies which
may otherwise be available under this Agreement, at law or in equity to the Company Indemnified Parties.
(c)
Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under this Section 7 of notice of the commencement of any action, the indemnified
party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 7, notify such indemnifying
party in writing of the commencement of that action; provided, however, that the failure to notify the indemnifying party
shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 7 except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced
by such failure; and, provided, further, that the failure to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any
liability which it may have to an indemnified party otherwise than under this Section 7. If any such action shall be brought against
an indemnified party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein
and, to the extent that it wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to assume the defense of such action
with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party (which counsel shall not, except with the written consent of the indemnified
party, be counsel to the indemnifying party). After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified party of its election to assume
the defense of such action, except as provided herein, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under Section
7 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the indemnified party in connection with the defense of such action
other than reasonable costs of investigation; provided, however, that any indemnified party shall have the right to employ
separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense of such action but the fees and expenses of such counsel (other
than reasonable costs of investigation) shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the employment thereof has been
specifically authorized in writing by the Company in the case of a claim for indemnification under Section 7(a) or the Representatives
in the case of a claim for indemnification under Section 7(b), (ii) such indemnified party shall have been advised by its counsel
that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying
party, or (iii) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such action and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to
the indemnified party within a reasonable period of time after notice of the commencement of the action or the indemnifying party does
not diligently defend the action after assumption of the defense, in which case, if such indemnified party notifies the indemnifying
party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not
have the right to assume the defense of (or, in the case of a failure to diligently defend the action after assumption of the defense,
to continue to defend) such action on behalf of such indemnified party and the indemnifying party shall be responsible for legal or other
expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense of such action; provided,
however,
that the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions
in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses
of more than one separate firm of attorneys at any time for all such indemnified parties (in addition to any local counsel), which firm
shall be designated in writing by the Representatives if the indemnified parties under this Section 7 consist of any Underwriter
Indemnified Party or by the Company if the indemnified parties under this Section 7 consist of any Company Indemnified Parties.
Subject to this Section 7(c), the amount payable by an indemnifying party under Section 7 shall include, but not be limited
to, (x) reasonable and documented legal fees and expenses of counsel to the indemnified party and any other expenses in investigating,
or preparing to defend or defending against, or appearing as a third party witness in respect of, or otherwise incurred in connection
with, any action, investigation, proceeding or claim, and (y) all amounts paid in settlement of any of the foregoing. No indemnifying
party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified parties, settle or compromise or consent to the entry of judgment with
respect to any pending or threatened action or any claim whatsoever, in respect of which indemnification or contribution could be sought
under this Section 7 (whether or not the indemnified parties are actual or potential parties thereto), unless such settlement,
compromise or consent (i) includes an unconditional release of each indemnified party in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to
such indemnified party from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to or an admission
of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party. Subject to the provisions of the following sentence,
no indemnifying party shall be liable for settlement of any pending or threatened action or any claim whatsoever that is effected without
its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), but if settled with its written consent, if its consent
has been unreasonably withheld or delayed or if there be a judgment for the plaintiff in any such matter, the indemnifying party agrees
to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.
In addition, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested that an indemnifying party reimburse the indemnified party for
fees and expenses of counsel, such indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of the nature contemplated by
Section 7(a) effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than sixty (60) days after receipt
by such indemnifying party of the request for reimbursement, (ii) such indemnifying party shall have received notice of the terms of
such settlement at least forty-five (45) days prior to such settlement being entered into and (iii) such indemnifying party shall
not have reimbursed such indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement.
(d)
If the indemnification provided for in this Section 7 is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party
under Section 7(a) or 7(b), then each indemnifying party shall, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, contribute
to the amount paid, payable or otherwise incurred by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage, expense or liability
(or any action, investigation or proceeding in respect thereof), as incurred, (i) in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect
the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Shares, or (ii)
if the allocation provided by clause (i) of this Section 7(d) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate
to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause (i) of this Section 7(d), but also the relative fault of the Company
on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect to the statements, omissions, acts or failures to act which resulted in
such loss, claim, damage, expense or liability (or any action, investigation or proceeding in respect thereof) as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other with respect
to such offering shall be deemed to be in the same proportion as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Shares issued and purchased
under this Agreement (before deducting expenses) received by the Company bear to the total underwriting
discounts and commissions
received by the Underwriters with respect to the Shares issued and purchased under this Agreement, in each case as set forth in the table
on the cover page of the Prospectus. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other shall be determined
by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission
to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company on the one hand or the Underwriters on the other, the intent
of the parties and their relative knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such untrue statement, omission,
act or failure to act; provided that the parties hereto agree that the written information furnished to the Company through the
Representatives by or on behalf of the Underwriters for use in the Preliminary Prospectus, the Registration Statement, the Prospectus,
or in any amendment or supplement thereto, consists solely of the Underwriters’ Information.
(e)
The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contributions pursuant to Section 7(d)
above were to be determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take into account the equitable
considerations referred to Section 7(d) above. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the loss, claim,
damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding referred to in Section 7(d) above shall be deemed to include,
subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
investigating, preparing to defend or defending against or appearing as a third party witness in respect of, or otherwise incurred in
connection with, any such loss, claim, damage, expense, liability, action, investigation or proceeding. Notwithstanding the provisions
of this Section 7, no Underwriters shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total underwriting
discounts and commissions received by such Underwriter with respect to the offering of the Shares exceeds the amount of any damages which
the Underwriter has otherwise paid or become liable to pay by reason of any untrue or alleged untrue statement, omission or alleged omission,
act or alleged act or failure to act or alleged failure to act. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning
of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
The Underwriters’ obligations to contribute as provided in this Section 7 are several in proportion to their respective
underwriting obligations and not joint.
8.
Termination. The obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be terminated
by the Representatives, in their absolute discretion by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Firm Shares
if, prior to that time, any of the events described in Section 6(o) have occurred or if the Underwriters shall decline to
purchase the Shares for any reason permitted under this Agreement.
9.
Reimbursement of Underwriters’ Expenses. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in this Agreement, if (a) this Agreement shall have been terminated pursuant to Section 8 or 10, (b) the Company
shall fail to tender the Shares for delivery to the Underwriters for any reason not permitted under this Agreement, (c) the Underwriters
shall decline to purchase the Shares for any reason permitted under this Agreement or (d) the issuance and sale of the Shares is not
consummated because any condition to the obligations of the Underwriters set forth herein is not satisfied or because of the refusal,
inability or failure on the part of the Company to perform any agreement herein or to satisfy any condition or to comply with the provisions
hereof, then, in addition to the payment of amounts in accordance with Section 5, the Company shall reimburse the Underwriters
for the reasonably incurred and documented fees and expenses of Underwriters’ counsel and for such other out-of-pocket expenses
as shall have been reasonably incurred and documented by them in connection with this Agreement and the proposed purchase of the Shares,
including, without limitation, travel and lodging expenses of the Underwriters, and upon demand the Company shall pay the full amount
thereof to the Representatives; provided that if this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 10 by reason of the default
of one or more Underwriters, the Company shall
not be obligated
to reimburse any defaulting Underwriter on account of expenses to the extent incurred by such defaulting Underwriter, provided further
that the foregoing shall not limit any reimbursement obligation of the Company to any non-defaulting Underwriter under this Section
9.
10.
Substitution of Underwriters. If any Underwriter or Underwriters shall default
in its or their obligations to purchase the Shares hereunder on any Closing Date (“Defaulting Securities”), the Representatives
shall have the right, within 24 hours thereafter, to make arrangements for one or more of the non-defaulting Underwriters, or, after
notice to the Company, any other underwriters, to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Defaulting Securities in such amounts as
may be agreed upon and upon the terms herein set forth; if however, the Representatives shall not have completed such arrangements within
such 24-hour period, then:
(a)
if the aggregate number of Defaulting Securities does not exceed ten percent (10%) of the total number of Shares to be purchased
by all Underwriters on such Closing Date, the other Underwriters shall be obligated severally, in proportion to their respective commitments
hereunder, to purchase the Defaulting Securities; or
(b)
if the aggregate number of Defaulting Securities is more than ten percent (10%) of the total number of shares to be purchased
by all Underwriters on such Closing Date, and arrangements satisfactory to the Representatives and the Company for the purchase of such
Shares by other persons are not made within forty-eight (48) hours after such default, this Agreement shall terminate.
If
the remaining Underwriters or substituted Underwriters are required hereby or agree to take up all or part of the shares of Shares of
a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters on such Closing Date as provided in this Section 10, (i) the Company shall have
the right to postpone such Closing Dates for a period of not more than five (5) full business days in order that the Company may effect
whatever changes may thereby be made necessary in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus, or in any other documents or arrangements,
and the Company agrees promptly to file any amendments to the Registration Statement or supplements to the Prospectus which may thereby
be made necessary, and (ii) the respective numbers of shares to be purchased by the remaining Underwriters or substituted Underwriters
shall be taken as the basis of their underwriting obligation for all purposes of this Agreement. Nothing herein contained shall relieve
any defaulting Underwriter of its liability to the Company or the other Underwriters for damages occasioned by its default hereunder.
Any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section 10 shall be without liability on the part of any non-defaulting
Underwriter or the Company, except that the representations, warranties, covenants, indemnities, agreements and other statements set
forth in Section 2, the obligations with respect to expenses to be paid or reimbursed pursuant to Sections 5 and 9
and the provisions of Section 7 and Sections 11 through 21, inclusive, shall not terminate and shall remain in full
force and effect.
11.
Absence of Fiduciary Relationship. The Company acknowledges and agrees that:
(a)
each Underwriter’s responsibility to the Company is solely contractual in nature, the Representatives have been retained
solely to act as underwriters in connection with the sale of the Shares and no fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship between the
Company and the Representatives have been created in respect of any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, irrespective
of whether the Representatives have advised or is advising the Company on other matters;
(b)
the price of the Shares set forth in this Agreement was established by the Company following discussions and arms-length negotiations
with the Representatives, and the Company is capable
of evaluating and
understanding, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement;
(c)
it has been advised that the Representatives and their affiliates are engaged in a broad range of transactions which may involve
interests that differ from those of the Company and that the Representatives have no obligation to disclose such interests and transactions
to the Company by virtue of any fiduciary, advisory or agency relationship; and
(d)
it waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claims it may have against the Representatives for breach of fiduciary
duty or alleged breach of fiduciary duty and agrees that the Representatives shall have no liability (whether direct or indirect) to
the Company in respect of such a fiduciary duty claim or to any person asserting a fiduciary duty claim on behalf of or in right of the
Company, including shareholders, employees or creditors of the Company.
12.
Successors; Persons Entitled to Benefit of Agreement. This Agreement shall
inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the several Underwriters, the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective successors and
assigns. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any person, other than the persons
mentioned in the preceding sentence, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement, or any provisions
herein contained, this Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof being intended to be and being for the sole and exclusive benefit
of such persons and for the benefit of no other person; except that the representations, warranties, covenants, agreements and indemnities
of the Company contained in this Agreement shall also be for the benefit of the Underwriter Indemnified Parties, and the indemnities
of the several Underwriters shall be for the benefit of the Company Indemnified Parties. It is understood that each Underwriter’s
responsibility to the Company is solely contractual in nature and the Underwriters do not owe the Company, or any other party, any fiduciary
duty as a result of this Agreement. No purchaser of any of the Shares from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor or assign
by reason merely of such purchase.
13.
Survival of Indemnities, Representations, Warranties, etc. The respective
indemnities, covenants, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements of the Company and the several Underwriters, as
set forth in this Agreement or made by them respectively, pursuant to this Agreement, shall remain operative and in full force and effect,
regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, the Company or any person controlling any of them and shall
survive delivery of and payment for the Shares. Notwithstanding any termination of this Agreement, including without limitation any termination
pursuant to Section 8 or Section 10, the indemnities, covenants, agreements, representations, warranties and other statements
forth in Sections 2, 5, 7 and 9 and Sections 11 through 21, inclusive, of this Agreement shall
not terminate and shall remain in full force and effect at all times.
14.
Recognition of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.
(a)
In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding
under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under
this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this
Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
(b)
In the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such
Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default
Rights under this
Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights
could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state
of the United States.

Re: GH Research PLC
Dear Sirs and Madams:
This
letter agreement (the “Agreement”) is being delivered to you in connection with the proposed Underwriting Agreement (the
“Underwriting Agreement”) between GH Research PLC, a public limited company under the laws of Ireland (together with any
successor thereto, the “Company”) and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated as representatives
(the “Representatives”) of a group of underwriters (collectively, the “Underwriters”), to be named therein, and
the other parties thereto (if any), relating to the proposed public offering (the “Offering”) of ordinary shares, nominal
value $0.025 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”) of the Company.
In
order to induce the Underwriters to enter into the Underwriting Agreement, and in light of the benefits that the Offering of the Ordinary
Shares will confer upon the undersigned in his, her or its capacity as a securityholder and/or an officer, director or employee of the
Company, and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the undersigned agrees
with each Underwriter that, during the period beginning on the date hereof through and including the date that is the 30th
day after the date of the Underwriting Agreement (the “Lock-Up Period”), the undersigned will not, and will not cause or
direct any of its affiliates to, without the prior written consent of the Representatives, directly or indirectly, (i) offer, sell, assign,
transfer, pledge, contract to sell, lend or otherwise dispose of, or announce the intention to otherwise dispose of, any Ordinary Shares
(including, without limitation, Ordinary Shares which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the undersigned in accordance with the
rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) as the same may be
amended or supplemented from time to time (such Ordinary Shares, the “Beneficially Owned Ordinary Shares”)) or securities
convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares, (ii) enter into, or announce the intention to enter into, any swap,
hedge or similar agreement or arrangement (including, without limitation, the purchase or sale of, or entry into, any put or call option,
or combination thereof, forward, swap or any other derivative transaction or instrument, however described or defined) that transfers,
is designed to transfer or reasonably could be expected to transfer (whether by the undersigned or someone other than the undersigned)
in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic risk of ownership of the Beneficially Owned Ordinary Shares or securities convertible
into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares, whether now owned or hereafter
acquired by the undersigned
or with respect to which the undersigned has or hereafter acquires the power of disposition, or (iii) engage in, or announce the intention
to engage in, any short selling of the Ordinary Shares or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares
(the “Prohibited Activities”). The undersigned represents and warrants that the undersigned is not, and has not caused or
directed any of its affiliates to be or become, currently a party to any agreement or arrangement that is designed to or which reasonably
could be expected to lead to or result in any Prohibited Activities during the Lock-Up Period.

member of the immediate family of the undersigned, affiliate thereof, or any trust or trustee
or beneficiary thereof for the direct or indirect benefit of the undersigned or the immediate
family of the undersigned; |
| (d) | transfers
or dispositions of Ordinary Shares or any security convertible into Ordinary Shares to any
corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other entity or affiliate of the undersigned
or the immediate family of the undersigned; |

settlement; |
| (f) | transfers
or dispositions of Ordinary Shares or any security convertible into Ordinary Shares to another
corporation, member, partnership, limited liability company, trust or other entity that is

of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) of the undersigned, or to an investment
fund or other entity that controls or manages, or is under common control with, the undersigned,
or distributions of Ordinary Shares or other securities to partners, members, stockholders,
beneficiaries or other equity holders of the undersigned; |
| (g) | transfers
or dispositions of Ordinary Shares or any security convertible into Ordinary Shares to the
Company in connection with the repurchase of such securities with respect to the termination
of the undersigned's employment with the Company; |
provided

received by the undersigned in connection therewith, if any, shall be subject to the terms

equivalent) reporting a reduction in beneficial ownership of Ordinary Shares shall be required
or shall be voluntarily made during the Lock-Up Period; |
| (i) | transfers

| (j) | the establishment
of a trading plan pursuant to Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act (or its foreign equivalent)
(a "Trading Plan") for the transfer of Ordinary Shares, provided that (i)

and, (ii) to the extent a public announcement or filing under the Exchange Act (or its foreign
equivalent), if any, is required from or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned
or the Company regarding the establishment of such plan, such announcement or filing shall
include a statement to the effect that no transfer of Ordinary Shares may be made under such
plan during the Lock-Up Period; |
| (k) | transfers
or dispositions pursuant to any Trading Plan that has been entered into by the undersigned
prior to the date of the Underwriting Agreement, provided that, to the extent a public
announcement or filing under the Exchange Act (or its foreign equivalent), if any, is required
from or voluntarily made by or on behalf of the undersigned, such announcement or filing
shall include a statement to the effect that such dispositions were made pursuant to such
Trading Plan; or |
| (l) | transfers
or dispositions of Ordinary Shares or any security convertible into Ordinary Shares pursuant
to a bona fide tender offer for the Company’s capital shares, merger, consolidation
or other similar transaction made to all holders of the Company’s securities involving

entering into of any lock-up, voting or similar agreement pursuant to which the undersigned
may agree to transfer, sell, tender or otherwise dispose of Ordinary Shares or any security
convertible into Ordinary Shares in connection with such transaction) that has been approved
by the board of directors of the Company; provided that, in the event that such Change
of Control transaction is not consummated, this clause (l) shall not be applicable and the
undersigned’s shares and other securities shall remain subject to the restrictions
contained in this agreement. |
For
purposes of this agreement, “immediate family” shall mean any relationship by blood, marriage, domestic partnership or adoption,
not more remote than first cousin, and securities of the Company (for purposes of determining record or beneficial ownership of a shareholder,
all shares or securities held by investment funds affiliated with such shareholder shall be aggregated) and “Change of Control”
shall mean the transfer (whether by tender offer, merger, consolidation or other similar
transaction), in
one transactions or a series of related transactions, to a person or group of affiliated persons (other than an Underwriter pursuant
to the Offering), of the Company’s voting securities if, after such transfer, such person or group of affiliated persons would
hold greater than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Company (or the surviving entity), provided that, for the avoidance
of doubt, the Offering shall not constitute a Change of Control.
In order to enable
this covenant to be enforced, the undersigned hereby consents to the placing of legends or stop transfer instructions with the Company’s
transfer agent with respect to any Ordinary Shares or securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares.
The

to the registration under the Securities Act, of any Ordinary Shares or other Beneficially Owned Ordinary Shares or any securities convertible
into or exercisable or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares or other Beneficially Owned Ordinary Shares.
The
undersigned hereby represents and warrants that the undersigned has full power and authority to enter into this Agreement and that this
Agreement has been duly authorized (if the undersigned is not a natural person), executed and delivered by the undersigned and is a valid
and binding agreement of the undersigned. This Agreement and all authority herein conferred are irrevocable and shall survive the death
or incapacity of the undersigned (if a natural person) and shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and
assigns of the undersigned.
The
undersigned acknowledges and agrees that the Underwriters have not provided any recommendation or investment advice nor have the Underwriters
solicited any action from the undersigned with respect to the Offering of Ordinary Shares and the undersigned has consulted their own
legal, accounting, financial, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent deemed appropriate. The undersigned further acknowledges and
agrees that, although the Representatives may be required or choose to provide certain Regulation Best Interest and Form CRS disclosures
to you in connection with the Offering, the Representatives and the other Underwriters are not making a recommendation to you to enter
into this Agreement and nothing set forth in such disclosures is intended to suggest that the Representatives or any Underwriter is making
such a recommendation.
This
Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made
and to be performed in such state.
This
Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall
together constitute one and the same Agreement. Electronic signatures complying with the New York Electronic Signatures and Records Act
(N.Y. State Tech. §§ 301-309), as amended from time to time, or other applicable law will be deemed original signatures for
purposes of this Agreement. Transmission by telecopy, electronic mail or other transmission method of an executed counterpart of this
Agreement will constitute due and sufficient delivery of such counterpart.
If
(i) the Company notifies the Representatives in writing that it does not intend to proceed with the Offering, (ii) the Underwriting Agreement
is not executed by February 28, 2025, or (iii) the Underwriting Agreement (other than the provisions thereof which survive termination)
shall terminate or be terminated for any reason prior to payment for and delivery of any Ordinary Shares to be sold thereunder, then
this Agreement shall immediately be terminated and the undersigned shall automatically be released from all of his, her or its obligations
under this Agreement. The undersigned acknowledges and agrees that whether or not any public offering of Ordinary Shares actually occurs
depends on a number of factors, including market conditions.

Re: GH Research
plc (the Company)
Dear Sirs
We are acting as Irish counsel to the Company,
a public limited company incorporated under the laws of Ireland (registered number 691405), in connection with the offering of up to 11,500,000
of the Company's ordinary shares, nominal value $0.025 per share (the Shares), pursuant to (i) a registration statement on Form
F-3 filed by the Company on 9 March 2023 with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act) and declared effective by the SEC on March 17, 2023 (the Registration Statement),
including the prospectus contained therein and any amendments or supplements thereto, and (ii) the prospectus supplement to the Registration
Statement, dated 3 February 2025 (the Prospectus Supplement).
Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. and Stifel, Nicolaus
& Company, Incorporated (the Representatives) are acting as representatives to the underwriters to this offering, as documented
in an underwriting agreement dated 4 February 2025 between the Company and the Representatives (the Underwriting Agreement) (the
transactions contemplated therein together with those in the Registration Statement and the Prospectus Supplement, the Transaction).
| 1 | In connection with this Opinion, we have examined and relied upon copies of: |
| 1.1 | the Registration Statement, the Prospectus Supplement and the Underwriting Agreement (the Transaction
Documents); and |
| 1.2 | such corporate records of the Company as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions hereinafter
expressed. |
In rendering this Opinion, we have examined, and
have assumed, without any responsibility on our part if any assumption proves to have been untrue as we have not verified independently
any assumption, the truth and accuracy of the contents of, all such records, documents and certificates of officers of the Company and
of public officials as to factual matters and have conducted such searches, as at the date hereof, in public registries in Ireland as
we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purposes of this Opinion. In our examination we have assumed the (continued) truth and
accuracy of the information contained in such documents, the genuineness of all signatures

(electronic or otherwise), the authenticity of
all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as certified or photostatic
copies and the authenticity of the originals of such documents.
| 2 | We have further assumed the following without any responsibility on our part if any assumption proves
to have been untrue as we have not verified independently any assumption: |
The Shares
| 2.1 | that the memorandum and articles of association of the Company as amended on 24 June 2021 (the Constitution)
and as are available in the Irish Companies Registration Office as at the date of this Opinion are correct and up to date; |
| 2.2 | that, at the time of issuance of the Shares, such issuance shall not be in contravention or breach of
any agreement, undertaking, arrangement, deed or covenant affecting the Company or to which the Company is a party or otherwise bound
or subject, provided that (without any independent investigation on our part) we are not aware of any such contravention or breach; |
| 2.3 | that each party (other than the Company, for which we make no such assumption), to the extent that its
activities in relation to the Transaction Documents will constitute the provision of an investment service operating in Ireland and require
authorisation, is acting under and within the terms of an authorisation to do so (which authorisation has been granted under the European
Union (Markets in Financial Instruments) Regulations 2017 (as amended) or a competent authority for the purposes of Directive 2014/65/EU
of 15 May 2014, as amended or extended from time to time, in another Member State) or is exempt from the requirement to have such authorisation; |
| 2.4 | the compliance by the parties within the prescribed period(s) and in the prescribed manner, with any notification
obligations that they may have under the provisions of sections 257 to 265, 1048 and 1050 of the Companies Act 2014 (the Companies
Act) and any respective notification obligations arising under the Irish Takeover Panel Act 1997 and any rules thereunder; |
| 2.5 | that the Registration Statement and/or the Prospectus Supplement do not constitute (and is not intended/required
to constitute) a prospectus within the meaning of Part 23 of the Companies Act and that no offer of securities to the public is made,
or will be made, that requires the publication of a prospectus pursuant to Irish prospectus law in general, or in particular pursuant
to the Prospectus (Directive 2017/1129) Regulations (EU) 2017/2019; |
| 2.6 | that any Shares issued under the Transaction Documents will be in consideration of the receipt by the
Company prior to the issuance of such Shares pursuant thereto of cash at least equal to the nominal value of such Shares and any premium
required to be paid up on the Shares pursuant to their terms of issuance; |
Authenticity and
Bona Fides
| 2.7 | that copies produced to us of minutes of meetings, resolutions and/or authorities of the shareholders
or the Board, including any appropriate committee appointed thereby, upon which we relied, were duly convened, duly quorate and held,
that those present at any such meetings were entitled to attend and vote at the meeting and acted bona fide through out and that no further
resolutions have been passed or other action taken which would or might alter the effectiveness thereof and that such resolutions have
not been varied, amended or revoked in any respect or have expired and that the Shares will be issued in accordance with such resolutions
and authorities; |
| 2.8 | that there is, at the relevant time of the allotment and issuance of the Shares, no matter affecting the
authority of the Board to allot and issue the Shares, not disclosed by the Constitution or the resolutions produced to us, which would
have any adverse implications in relation to the opinions expressed in this Opinion; |
| 2.9 | that each director of the Company has disclosed any interest which he or she may have in the Transaction
in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act and the Constitution and none of the directors of the Company has any interest
in the Transaction except to the extent permitted by the Constitution; |
| 2.10 | the absence of fraud, coercion, duress or undue influence and lack of bad faith on the part of the Company
and its respective officers, employees, agents and advisers and that the Company will issue the Shares in good faith, for its legitimate
and bona fide business purposes; |
Solvency and Insolvency
| 2.11 | that: (i) the Company will be fully solvent at the time of and immediately following the issue of any
Shares; (ii) no resolution or petition for the appointment of a liquidator or examiner will be passed or presented prior to the issue
of any Shares; (iii) no receiver will have been appointed in relation to any of the assets or undertaking of the Company prior to the
issue of the Shares and (iv) no composition in satisfaction of debts, scheme of arrangement, or compromise or arrangement with creditors
or members (or any class of creditors or members) will be proposed, sanctioned or approved in relation to the Company prior to the issue
of the Shares; |
Commercial Benefit
| 2.12 | the Company has entered into the Transaction in good faith, for its legitimate business purposes, for
good consideration, and that it derives commercial benefit from the Transaction commensurate with the risks undertaken by it in the Transaction;
and |
Financial Assistance
and Connected Transactions
| 2.13 | that the Company is not, by entering into the Transaction Documents or performing its obligations thereunder,
providing financial assistance for the purpose of an acquisition (by way of subscription, purchase, exchange or otherwise) made or to
be made by any person of any shares in the Company which would be prohibited by section 82 of the Companies Act. |
| 3 | Having made such further investigation and reviewed such other documents as we have considered requisite
or desirable, subject to the foregoing and to the within additional qualifications and assumptions, we are of the opinion that the Shares,
when issued in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Underwriting Agreement, will be duly authorised, validly issued, fully
paid and will not be subject to calls for any additional payments (non- assessable). |
| 4 | The opinions set forth in this Opinion are given subject to the following qualifications: |
General Matters
| 4.1 | a particular course of dealing among the parties or an oral amendment, variation or waiver may result
in an Irish court finding that the terms of the Transaction Documents have been amended, varied or waived even if such course of dealing
or oral amendment, variation or waiver is not reflected in writing among the parties; |
| 4.2 | no opinion is expressed on the irrevocability of, or on the enforceability of the delegation of, any power
of attorney under the Transaction Documents; |
| 4.3 | no opinion is expressed on any deed of assignment, transfer, accession or similar document executed after
the date of this opinion in relation to any of the rights and obligations contained in the Transaction Documents; |
| 4.4 | no opinion is expressed on any deed or agreement envisaged by the Transaction Documents to be entered
at a future date or any future action taken by a party under the Transaction Documents; |
| 4.5 | no opinion is expressed as to whether the Transaction Documents breach any other agreement or instrument; |
Sanctions
| 4.6 | if a party to any Transaction Document or to any transfer of, or payment in respect of, the Transaction
Documents is controlled by or otherwise connected with a person (or is itself) resident in, incorporated in or constituted under the laws
of a country which is the subject of United Nations, European Union or Irish sanctions or sanctions under the Treaty on the Functioning
of the European Union, as amended, or is otherwise the target of any such sanctions, then obligations to that party under the relevant
Transaction Documents or in respect of the relevant transfer or payment may be unenforceable or void; and |
Execution of Documents
| 4.7 | we note the decision in the English case of R (on the application of Mercury Tax Ltd) v. Revenue and Customs
Commissioners [2008] EWHC 2721. Although this decision will not be binding on the courts of Ireland it will be considered as persuasive
authority. One of the decisions in that case would appear to indicate that a previously executed signature page from one document may
not be transferred to another document, even where the documents in question are simply updated versions of the same document. Our Opinion
is qualified by reference to the above referenced decision. |
In rendering this Opinion, we have confined ourselves
to matters of Irish law. We have made no investigation of and express no opinion on any laws other than the laws of Ireland (and the interpretation
thereof) in force as at the date hereof. This Opinion speaks only as of its date. We are not under any obligation to update this Opinion
from time to time, nor to notify you of any change of law, facts or circumstances referred to or relied upon in the giving of this Opinion.
This Opinion is given solely for the benefit of
the addressee of this Opinion and may not be relied upon by any other person without our prior written consent, provided, however, that
it may be relied upon by persons entitled to rely on it pursuant to applicable provisions of US federal securities laws.
This Opinion is also strictly confined to the matters
expressly stated herein and is not to be read as extending by implication or otherwise to any other matter.
We hereby consent to the filing of this Opinion
with the SEC as an exhibit to the Company's Current Report on Form 6-K filed with the SEC on 6 February 2025 and to the use of our name
therein and in the related prospectus and in any prospectus supplement under the caption "Legal Matters".
The Opinion is governed by and construed in accordance
with the laws of Ireland.
Yours faithfully
