    provision of rule 6.1.
	 	 
	6.3	For

    first Dealing Day following the end of that Closed Period.
	 	 
	6.4	An
    Award Holder who gives or receives notice of termination of employment before the Release Date (whether or not lawful) may not exercise
    an Option at any time while the notice remains effective.
	 	 
	6.5	No
    Award shall be Released during a period when the Award Holder is on notice of termination of employment (whether or not lawful).

	 	(h)	an
    Award Holder who has ceased to be an Employee was in breach of their employment contract or fiduciary duties in a manner that would

	 	(i)	the
    Market Value of the Shares measured on the date the Option was exercised, and
	 	 	 
	 	(ii)	the
    Market Value of the Shares measured on the date of the determination


 


minus
the Base Price or Exercise Price (as the case may be).


 


	8.5	If
    the Award Holder has paid or is liable to pay any income tax or SICs in relation to the Award or the Shares and which cannot be recovered
    from or repaid by the Tax Authority (whether directly or indirectly), the Board may in its discretion decide to reduce the Clawback
    Amount to take account of this amount. In deciding whether to reduce the Clawback Amount, the Board shall take account of such factors
    it thinks fit, which may include market practice, corporate governance rules and guidelines, and the expectations of shareholders.
	 	 
	8.6	For
    the avoidance of doubt, the Board is not obliged to determine a Clawback Amount in relation to any particular Award, even if the
    Board does determine a Clawback Amount in relation to other Awards to the same or other Award Holders which had the same Grant Date
    or Release Date.
	 	 
	8.7	The
    Award Holder shall reimburse the Company for the Clawback Amount, in any way acceptable to the Board, on or as soon as possible after
    the Board determines a Clawback Amount in relation to the Award. If the Award Holder fails to reimburse the Company within 30 days
    after the determination, the Company shall obtain reimbursement from the Award Holder in any (or any combination) of the following
    ways:


 


	 	(a)	by
    reducing or cancelling any Options that the Award Holder has not exercised;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	by
    reducing or cancelling any cash bonus payable to the Award Holder by any Group Company;
	 	 	 
	 	(c)	by
    reducing or cancelling any future or existing award made or option granted to the Award Holder under any other Share Incentive Scheme
    or bonus scheme operated by any Group Company;
	 	 	 
	 	(d)	by
    requiring the Award Holder to make a cash payment to a Group Company; or
	 	 	 
	 	(e)	by
    reducing the Award Holder’s Salary.


 




    	14



    	 



    

 


	8.8	If
    the Award Holder participates in another Share Incentive Scheme or bonus scheme operated by a Group Company, and that other scheme
    contains a provision that has a similar effect to this rule 8, the Board may give effect to that provision by reducing or cancelling
    any Options that the Award Holder has not exercised.
	 	 
	8.9	It
    is a condition of the exercise of an Option that the Award Holder sign an Exercise Notice declaring an irrevocable agreement to the
    terms of rule 8.
	 	 
	9.	Exercise
    of Options
	 	 
	9.1	An
    Award Holder may not exercise an Option before the later of:


 


	 	(a)	its
    Release Date;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	the
    time when it becomes exercisable under rule 15; and
	 	 	 
	 	(c)	the
    time when it becomes exercisable under rule 16.


 


	9.2	An
    Award Holder may only exercise an Option to the extent that the relevant Performance Conditions are achieved, and any other condition
    stated in the Award Certificate is satisfied.
	 	 
	9.3	An
    Award Holder may not exercise an Option at a time when its exercise is prohibited by, or would be a breach of, any applicable Listing
    Rules or GIB MAR or any other law or regulation with the force of law, or other rule, code or set of guidelines (such as a personal
    dealing code adopted by the Company).
	 	 
	9.4	An
    Award Holder may not exercise an Option without having signed the Exercise Notice and made any arrangements, or entered into any
    agreements, that may be required and are referred to in rule 8 and rule 20.
	 	 
	10.	Manner
    of exercise of Options
	 	 
	10.1	The
    Award Holder shall exercise an Option by giving an Exercise Notice to the Company setting out the number of Shares over which the
    Award Holder wishes to exercise the Option. If that number exceeds the number over which the Option may be validly exercised at the
    time, the Company shall:


 


	 	(a)	treat
    the Option as exercised only in respect of that lesser number; and
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	refund
    any excess amount paid to exercise the Option or meet any Tax Liability.


 




    	15



    	 



    

 


	10.2	The
    Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by both of the following:


 


	 	(a)	in
    relation to a Nominal Cost Option payment of an amount equal to the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of Shares specified in
    the notice;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	any
    payment required under rule 20,


 


unless
the Award Holder has entered into binding alternative arrangements to secure the payment of those amounts which are satisfactory to the
Board.


 


	10.3	The
    Exercise Notice shall contain or be accompanied by:


 


	 	(a)	(if
    the Option is exercised before the end of an applicable Holding Period), the Nominee Agreement; and
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	any
    documents relating to arrangements or agreements required under rule 8 and rule 20.


 


	10.4	Any
    Exercise Notice shall be invalid:


 


	 	(a)	to
    the extent that it is inconsistent with the Award Holder’s rights under these rules and the Award Certificate;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	if
    any of the requirements of rule 10.1, rule 10.2 or rule 10.3 are not met; or
	 	 	 
	 	(c)	if
    any payment referred to in rule 10.2 is made by a cheque that is not honoured on first presentation or that fails in any other manner
    to transfer the expected value to the Company.


 


The
Company may permit the Award Holder to correct any defect referred to in rule 10.4 (but shall not be obliged to do so). The date of any
corrected Exercise Notice shall be the date of the correction rather than the original notice date for all other purposes of the Plan.


 


	11.	Settlement
    of Awards
	 	 
	11.1	This
    rule 11 is subject to rule 13.
	 	 
	11.2	Within
    30 days after the valid exercise of a Nominal Cost Option, the Company shall allot and issue the relevant Shares to the Award Holder
    (or to the Nominee in the event that an Option is exercised prior to the expiry of an applicable Holding Period).


 




    	16



    	 



    

 


	11.3	If
    the Shares are listed or traded on any stock exchange, the Company shall apply to the appropriate body for any newly issued Shares
    allotted to be listed or admitted to trading on that exchange as soon as practicable.
	 	 
	11.4	Within
    30 days after the valid exercise of a Phantom Option, the Company shall pay (or procure the payment) to the Award Holder of the amount
    of cash due under the Award. The Company shall make such deductions from the payment as are required by law, including any withholding
    taxes, in accordance with rule 20.
	 	 
	12.	Holding
    Period
	 	 
	 	During
    a Holding Period, the Award Holder may not transfer, assign, charge or otherwise dispose of the beneficial interest in the Shares
    Released under a Share-settled Award (including any Shares acquired on the exercise of an Option) except:


 


	 	(a)	with
    the permission of the Board;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	in
    order to raise sufficient funds to pay a Tax Liability in relation to the Shares so Released;
	 	 	 
	 	(c)	in
    order to raise sufficient funds to pay the Exercise Price of a Nominal Cost Option; or
	 	 	 
	 	(d)	where
    rule 8, rule 16 or rule 18 apply.


 


	13.	Alternative
    methods of settlement of Awards
	 	 
	13.1	Instead
    of delivering the number of Shares specified in the relevant Exercise Notice the Company may settle the exercise of a Nominal Cost
    Option in cash in the following manner:


 


	 	(a)	multiply
    the number of Shares in relation to which the Award has been Released by the Market Value of a Share on the Release Date;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	deduct
    any Tax Liability and pay the resulting amount to the Award Holder; and
	 	 	 
	 	(c)	refund
    the amount of any payment the Award Holder may have made in respect of the Tax Liability.


 


	14.	Lapse
    of Awards
	 	 
	14.1	Other
    than pursuant to rule 12, an Award Holder may not transfer or assign, or create any charge or other security interest over an Award
    (or any right arising under it). An Award shall lapse if the Award Holder attempts to do any of those things. However, this rule
    14.1 does not prevent the transmission of an Award to an Award Holder’s personal representatives on the death of the Award
    Holder.


 




    	17



    	 



    

 


	14.2	An
    Award shall lapse on the earliest of the following:


 


	 	(a)	any
    attempted action by the Award Holder falling within rule 14.1;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	when
    the Board decides in accordance with rule 3.6, to the extent that the Performance Condition has become wholly or partly incapable
    of being met;
	 	 	 
	 	(c)	any
    date on which the Award shall lapse, as specified in the Award Certificate;
	 	 	 
	 	(d)	to
    the extent necessary to give effect to any reduction or cancellation under rule 8;
	 	 	 
	 	(e)	to
    the extent required by rule 15, the date the Award Holder dies or ceases employment;
	 	 	 
	 	(f)	the
    first anniversary of the Award Holder’s death;
	 	 	 
	 	(g)	the
    end of the 90-day period, if rule 15.4 or rule 15.6 applies;
	 	 	 
	 	(h)	if
    the Board decides under rule 15.5 that it will not permit the Award Holder to exercise the Option, the date the Board so decides;
	 	 	 
	 	(i)	the
    end of the 90-day period during which exercise is permitted, if the Board decides under rule 15.5 that it will permit the Award Holder
    to exercise the Option;
	 	 	 
	 	(j)	if
    the Award Holder ceases to be an Employee during the Employment Period in circumstances where rule 15.5 applies, 90 days after the
    Award Holder so ceases to be an Employee, if the Board makes no decision under the applicable rule;
	 	 	 
	 	(k)	if
    the Award Holder ceases to be an Employee after the end of the Employment Period, 90 days after the later of:
	 	 	 
	 	(i)	the
    date of so ceasing; and
	 	 	 
	 	(ii)	the
    Release Date;
	 	 	 
	 	(l)	the
    time specified for the lapse of the Award under rule 16 if any part of that rule 16 applies;
	 	 	 
	 	(m)	If
    the Board so determines under rule 19.3; or
	 	 	 
	 	(n)	when
    the Award Holder becomes bankrupt, applies for an interim order, proposes or makes a voluntary arrangement under the Insolvency Act
    2011 of Gibraltar, or takes similar steps or is similarly affected under the laws of any jurisdiction.

	15.	Termination
    of employment (Options)
	 	 
	15.1	rule
    15 applies to Options.
	 	 
	15.2	If
    an Award Holder:


 


	 	(a)	dies
    while an Employee; or
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	ceases
    to be an Employee (whether or not following notice and for whatever reason)


 


before
the end of the Employment Period, the Option shall lapse immediately in respect of a number of Shares. That number is calculated in accordance
with the formula N x (X/Y) where:


 


	 	(c)	N
    = the number of Shares in relation to which the Option was originally granted, less any Shares in respect of which it has already
    been exercised or has lapsed;
	 	 	 
	 	(d)	X
    = the number of days between the date of death or cessation and the end of the Employment Period; and
	 	 	 
	 	(e)	Y
    = the number of days in the Employment Period.


 


	15.3	The
    personal representatives of a deceased Award Holder may exercise the Option over a number of Shares during the period ending 12 months
    after the death. If the Option is not exercised, it will lapse at the end of that period. That number of Shares shall be determined
    as follows:


 


	 	(a)	take
    the number of Shares that remain after part of the Option has lapsed under rule 15.2;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	if
    the Award Holder dies during the Performance Period, the Board shall apply a further reduction to reflect the likelihood as at the
    date of death of the Performance Condition not being achieved by the end of the Performance Period and the Option shall lapse to
    that extent; and
	 	 	 
	 	(c)	if
    the Award Holder dies after the end of the Performance Period, the number shall be equal to the number of Shares that the Award Holder
    could have acquired on exercising the Option immediately before the death.


 


	15.4	This
    rule 15.4 applies if an Award Holder ceases to be an Employee before the Release Date due to any of the following reasons:


 


	 	(a)	injury;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	ill
    health;


 




    	19



    	 



    

 


	 	(c)	disability;
    or
	 	 	 
	 	(d)	the
    Employer Company ceasing to be a Group Company.


 


An
Award Holder who so ceases to be an Employee may exercise the remainder of the Option (after the application of rule 15.2 and subject
to achieving the Performance Conditions) during the 90-day period beginning on the earlier of:


 


	 	(e)	the
    Release Date; and
	 	 	 
	 	(f)	the
    date on which the Option becomes exercisable under rule 16.


 


If
the Option is not exercised during the relevant 90-day period, it will lapse at the end of that period.


 


	15.5	This
    rule 15.5 applies if an Award Holder ceases to be an Employee before the Release Date for any reason other than death and the reasons
    set out in rule 15.4.


 


The
Board may in its absolute discretion permit the Award Holder to exercise the remainder of the Option (after the application of rule 15.2)
during the 90-day period beginning on the earlier of:


 


	 	(a)	the
    Release Date; and
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	the
    date on which the Option becomes exercisable under rule 16.


 


If
the Option is not exercised during the relevant 90-day period, it will lapse at the end of that period.


 


Any
decision by the Board to grant permission under this rule 15.5 shall be made in the 90-day period following the cessation of employment
and if the Board does not make such a decision within that period, the Option will lapse immediately and in accordance with rule 14.
The Award Holder may not exercise the Option before the Board makes such a decision.


 


	15.6	An
    Award Holder who ceases to be an Employee on or after the Release Date may exercise the Option during the 90-day period following
    the date of cessation.
	 	 
	15.7	The
    Board shall notify the relevant Award Holder of any decision made under rule 15, including any decision not to permit the exercise
    of an Option, within a reasonable time after making it.


 




    	20



    	 



    

 


	15.8	If
    the relevant Award Certificate specifies different Performance Periods or Employment Periods for different parts of an Option, each
    part of that Option shall be treated as a separate Option for the purposes of rule 15.
	 	 
	15.9	An
    Award Holder who continues to be an employee or director of any Group Company shall not be regarded as ceasing to be an Employee.
	 	 
	16.	Takeovers
    and liquidations
	 	 
	16.1	The
    Releasable Number of Shares in relation to an Award is the number of Shares that the Board shall determine as follows:


 


	 	(a)	If
    the change of Control occurs during the Employment Period, multiply the number of Shares in relation to which the Award was originally
    granted, less any Shares in respect of which it has already been Released (or, in the case of an Option, has already been exercised)
    or has lapsed, by X/Y where:


 


	 	(i)	X
    = the number of days between the Grant Date and the date (or expected date) of the change of Control; and
	 	 	 
	 	(ii)	Y
    = the number of days in the Employment Period.


 


	 	(b)	If
    the change of Control occurs during the Performance Period, apply a further reduction to reflect the likelihood as at the date (or
    expected date) of the change of Control of the Performance Condition not being achieved by the end of the Performance Period.


 


	16.2	Where
    the Board is required by rule 16.1 to determine the Releasable Number, and the relevant Award Certificate specifies different Performance
    Periods or Employment Periods for different parts of an Award, the Board shall treat each part of that Award as a separate Award.
	 	 
	16.3	If
    the Board considers that a change of Control is likely to occur, the Board may in its absolute discretion decide that:


 


	 	(a)	all
    Awards shall be Released in relation to the Releasable Number of Shares; and
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	an
    Award Holder may exercise all or any part of any Option (but not in respect of more than the Releasable Number of Shares) within
    a reasonable period to be specified by the Board for that purpose and ending immediately before the Acquiror obtains Control of the
    Company. The Board shall have discretion to determine that an Option that is not exercised by the end of that period shall lapse.


 




    	21



    	 



    

 


The
Board may decide that the Release of Awards and exercise of Options shall be conditional on the change of Control actually occurring
and shall be treated as having no effect if the change of Control does not occur.


 


	16.4	rule
    16.5, rule 16.6 and rule 16.7 apply if a change of Control occurs and the Acquiror declares that it is willing to make an agreement
    under rule 18.
	 	 
	16.5	The
    Board may in its absolute discretion decide that an Award Holder may exercise all or any part of any Option (but not in respect of
    more than the Releasable Number of Shares) within a reasonable period to be specified by the Board for that purpose. Any part of
    an Option that is not either exchanged under rule 18 or exercised by the end of that period shall lapse.
	 	 
	16.6	The
    Board may at any time during the Rollover Period exchange the Award under rule 18.
	 	 
	16.7	The
    Board has discretion to determine at any time before the end of the Rollover Period that some or all of any Awards that are not so
    exchanged shall lapse at the end of the Rollover Period.
	 	 
	16.8	If
    the Acquiror is not willing to exchange the award under rule 18:


 


	 	(a)	all
    Awards shall be Released immediately following the change of Control in relation to the Releasable Number of Shares and lapse in
    relation to the balance; and
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	an
    Award Holder may exercise all or any part of any Option (but not in respect of more than the Releasable Number of Shares) within
    the period of 30 days following the change of Control. Any part of an Option that is not exercised by the end of that period shall
    lapse.


 


	16.9	If
    the court sanctions a compromise or arrangement under part VIII of the Companies Act 2014, the Board may decide that:


 


	 	(a)	all
    Awards shall be Released in relation to the Releasable Number of Shares; and
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	an
    Award Holder may exercise all or any part of any Option (but not in respect of more than the Releasable Number of Shares) within
    a reasonable period to be specified by the Board for that purpose. The Board shall have discretion to determine that an Option that
    is not exercised by the end of that period shall lapse.


 




    	22



    	 



    

 


	16.10	If
    any Shares, in one or a series of transactions, are sold resulting in the buyer and persons acting in concert with the buyer together
    acquiring Control of the Company, but the buyer is a company and its shareholders and the proportion of its shares held by each of
    them following completion of the sale are substantially the same as the shareholders and their shareholdings in the Company immediately
    before the sale, the Board may determine that this does not constitute a change of Control.


 


If
the buyer offers to make such arrangements as the Board, in its reasonable opinion, considers to be fair, for new awards to be offered
under rule 18 in exchange for Awards, then the Board may decide that any Awards that are not so exchanged shall lapse on such date as
the Board shall specify.


 


If
the buyer does not offer to make arrangements that the Board considers to be fair within 30 days after the buyer has acquired Control,
then:


 


	 	(a)	all
    Awards shall be Released on the 31st day following the buyer acquiring Control in relation to the Releasable Number of Shares and
    lapse in relation to the balance; and
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	an
    Award Holder may exercise all or any part of any Option (but not in respect of more than the Releasable Number of Shares) within
    the period starting 31 days and ending 90 days following the buyer acquiring Control. Any part of an Option that is not exercised
    by the end of that period shall lapse.


 


	16.11	In
    rule 16 and rule 18, a person shall be deemed to have obtained Control of a company if that person, and others acting in concert
    with that person, have obtained Control of it together.
	 	 
	16.12	If
    the shareholders of the Company receive notice of a resolution for the voluntary winding up of the Company, any Award Holder may
    exercise an Option in respect of the Releasable Number of Shares at any time before that resolution is passed, conditional upon the
    passing of that resolution, and if the Award Holder does not exercise the Option, it shall lapse when the winding up begins.
	 	 
	16.13	The
    Board shall notify Award Holders of any event that is relevant to Awards under this rule 16 within a reasonable period after the
    Board becomes aware of it.
	 	 
	16.14	For
    the avoidance of doubt, rule 16 is subject to rule 6.4 and rule 6.5.


 




    	23



    	 



    

 





	17.	Forafric
    2021 Long Term Employee Share Incentive Plan
	 	 
	17.1	The
    Board may at any time by notice in writing given to the holder require that the holders of an award made by Forafric Agro Holdings
    Limited under the Forafric 2021 Long Term Employee Share Incentive Plan adopted on 22 June 2022 (such holder a “2021 Award
    Holder”), to exchange the same for an Award under the Plan.
	 	 
	17.2	If
    the Board gives notice under clause 17.1 to a 2021 Award Holder, the said 2021 Award Holder shall surrender the same by way of a
    notice to Forafric Agro Holdings Limited and the Company, in a form to be determined by the Board, in exchange for the grant by the
    Company to him of a replacement right on substantially the same terms and in relation to such number of shares of the Company as
    the Board shall determine.
	 	 
	18.	Exchange
    of Awards
	 	 
	18.1	The
    Board may within the Rollover Period require that an Award Holder surrender any Award (“Old Award”) in exchange
    for a replacement right (“New Award”).
	 	 
	18.2	A
    New Award shall be granted on substantially the same terms as the Old Award and in relation to such shares of such company as the
    Board and Acquiror shall determine.
	 	 
	18.3	The
    Rollover Period is a period specified by the Board within which Award Holders may be required to surrender their Awards.
	 	 
	19.	Variation
    of share capital
	 	 
	19.1	This
    rule 19 applies where there is:


 


	 	(a)	a
    variation of share capital; or
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	an
    extraordinary distribution to shareholders.


 


	19.2	In
    this rule 19:


 


	 	(a)	A
    variation of share capital includes a capitalisation issue, rights issue, consolidation, subdivision or reduction of capital, a vendor
    placing with clawback, a vendor rights offer or a cash open offer. However, a scrip dividend is not a variation of share capital.
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	An
    extraordinary distribution to shareholders includes a demerger or special dividend.


 




    	24



    	 



    

 


	19.3	If
    notice is given to shareholders of the Company of a proposed extraordinary distribution, the Board shall determine whether the interests
    of Award Holders would or might be substantially prejudiced by the proposed extraordinary distribution.


 


If
the Board does so decide, it may determine that:


 


	 	(a)	some
    or all Awards shall be Released in relation to the Releasable Number of Shares; and
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	an
    Award Holder may exercise all or any part of any Option (but not in respect of more than the Releasable Number of Shares) within
    a reasonable period specified by the Board for that purpose and ending immediately before the record date for the extraordinary distribution.
    The Board shall have discretion to determine that an Option that is not exercised by the end of that period shall lapse.


 


The
Board may decide that the Release of Awards and exercise of Options shall be conditional on the extraordinary distribution actually occurring
and shall be treated as having no effect if the extraordinary distribution does not occur.


 


The
Releasable Number shall be determined in accordance with rule 16.1 as if the extraordinary distribution were a change of Control.


 


For
the avoidance of doubt, if the Board does not determine that Awards shall be Released and Options may be exercised, the Board may nevertheless
make an adjustment to the Awards under rule 19.4.


 


	19.4	If
    a variation of share capital or an extraordinary distribution occurs and the Board considers that it has affected the value of Awards,
    the Board shall consider whether it is fair to adjust the terms of the Awards and, if so, the Board shall make such adjustment as
    it considers appropriate to:


 


	 	(a)	the

	23.2	The
    Plan is intended to comply with Listing Rules. Notwithstanding any other rule set out in this Plan and in the event that any rules
    of the Plan or the terms of an Award Certificate do not comply with applicable Listing Rules, the Board shall follow a course of
    action or, where required, be able to make the necessary minimum amendments to the rules or to an Award Certificate from time to
    time (including, if required, the introduction or amendment of a Holding Period) in order to ensure that the Plan or any actions
    under the Plan do not breach the applicable Listing Rules.
	 	 
	23.3	The
    Board may amend the Plan from time to time, but:


 


	 	(a)	The
    Board may not amend the Plan if the amendment:


 


	 	(i)	applies
    to Awards granted before the amendment was made; and

    adversely affects the interests of Award Holders,


 


except
that an Award Holder whose Awards would be adversely affected may consent to the application of the amendment to those awards.


 


	 	(b)	the
    Board may not make any amendment to the advantage of Award Holders if that amendment relates to:


 


	 	(i)	the
    definition of Employee;
	 	 	 
	 	(ii)	rule
    4; or
	 	 	 
	 	(iii)	rule
    19,


 


without
the prior approval of the Company in general meeting (except for minor amendments to benefit the administration of the Plan, to take
account of a change in legislation, or to obtain or maintain favourable tax, exchange control or regulatory treatment for Award Holders
or for a Group Company).


 


	23.4	The
    cost of establishing and operating the Plan shall be borne by the Group Companies in proportions determined by the Board.
	 	 
	23.5	Any
    decision under rule 7, rule 8, or rule 15.5, and whether to consider making such a decision, shall be entirely at the discretion
    of the Board.
	 	 
	23.6	The
    Board shall determine any question of interpretation and settle any dispute arising under the Plan, including determining whether

    making any decision or determination, or exercising any discretion under the rules, the Board shall act fairly and reasonably and
    in good faith.

    overseas sub-plans are subject to the limitations set out in rule 4 ;
	 	 	 
	 	(b)	no
    Employee has an entitlement to awards under any overseas sub-plan greater than the maximum entitlement of an Employee under the Plan.


 


Any
overseas sub-plan must be governed by rules similar to the rules of the Plan, but modified to take account of applicable tax, social
security, employment, company, exchange control, trust or securities (or any other relevant) law, regulation or practice.


 


	24.	Third
    party rights
	 	 
	24.1	A
    person who is not a party to an Award shall not have any rights under or in connection with it except where these rights arise under
    any rule of the Plan for any Employer Company that is not a party to an Award.
	 	 
	25.	Data
    protection


 


For
the purpose of operating the Plan, the Company will collect and process information relating to Employees and Award Holders in accordance
with the Company’s Data Protection Policy.


 


	26.	Governing
    law

Plan and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes
or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Gibraltar.

	27.1	The
    courts of Gibraltar shall have jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with the Plan or its subject
    matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims). The jurisdiction agreement contained in this rule is made for
    the benefit of the Company and the Group only, which accordingly retains the right to bring proceedings in any other court of competent
    jurisdiction.
	 	 
	27.2	Each
    party irrevocably consents to any process in any legal action or proceedings under rule 27.1 being served on it in accordance with
    the provisions of the Plan relating to service of notices. Nothing contained in the Plan shall affect the right to serve process
    in any other manner permitted by law.
