Adoption of 2025 Share Incentive Plan
On July 1, 2025, the Board of Directors (“Board”) of Adlai Nortye Ltd. (the “Company”) approved and authorized the adoption of the 2025 Share Incentive Plan, effective on the same date (the “Plan”). Under the Plan, the Company will be permitted to grant awards of options, restricted shares, restricted share units and other types of awards as the case may require (the “Awards”).
The purposes of the Plan are to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentives to selected employees, directors, and consultants and to promote the success of the Company’s business by offering these individuals an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the success of the Company, or to increase this interest by permitting them to acquire shares of the Company.
The Plan shall be administered by the Board of the Company. The Board of the Company may authorize one or more committees or officers to administrate the grants of any Awards and may limit such authority as the Board determines from time to time.
The term of the Plan is ten years from the date of adoption, unless sooner terminated according to the terms of the Plan.
