**EXPLANATORY NOTE**

This Registration Statement on Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") is being filed by NewAmsterdam Pharma Company N.V. (the "Company") for the purpose of registering the offer and sale of (i) additional ordinary shares, nominal value of €0.12 per share (the "Ordinary Shares"), under the Long-Term Incentive Plan NewAmsterdam Pharma Company N.V. (the "Incentive Plan") and (ii) additional Ordinary Shares under the Inducement Plan NewAmsterdam Pharma Company N.V. (the "Inducement Plan").

The Incentive Plan provides that the number of Ordinary Shares reserved for issuance may, in the discretion of the Company's board of directors (the "Board"), increase annually on January 1 of each calendar year by 5% of the Company's issued share capital on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar year or such lower number as may be determined by the Board (the "Evergreen Increase"). This Registration Statement registers the offer and sale of an additional 5,719,966 Ordinary Shares that are available for issuance under the Incentive Plan pursuant to the Evergreen Increase that became effective January 1, 2026.

On April 25, 2024, the Board adopted the Inducement Plan under which the Company may grant options, restricted shares, restricted share units, share appreciation rights and other equity and equity-based awards to its employees (but not its directors). On September 23, 2025, the Board approved an increase in the total number of Ordinary Shares underlying awards that may be granted under the Inducement Plan from 1,500,000 to 2,500,000.

Pursuant to General Instruction E to Form S-8 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the contents of the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on January 7, 2025 (File No. 333-284166) with respect to the Incentive Plan and the Registration Statement on Form S-8 filed with the SEC on July 3, 2024 (File No. 333-280689) with respect to the Incentive Plan and the Inducement Plan (collectively, the "Prior Registration Statements") are incorporated by reference and made part of this Registration Statement. Any items in the Prior Registration Statements not expressly changed hereby shall be as set forth in the Prior Registration Statements.

To the Company:

We have acted as legal counsel as to Dutch law to the Company in connection with the Plans and the filing of the Registration Statement with the SEC. This opinion letter is rendered to you in order to be filed with the SEC as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.

Capitalised terms used in this opinion letter have the meanings set forth in Exhibit A to this opinion letter. The headings used in this opinion letter are for convenience of reference only and are not to affect its construction or to be taken into consideration in its interpretation.

In rendering the opinions expressed in this opinion letter, we have reviewed and relied upon the Plans, a draft of the Registration Statement and pdf copies of the Corporate Documents and we have assumed that Awards under the Plans shall be made for bona fide commercial reasons. We have not investigated or verified any factual matter disclosed to us in the course of our review.

This opinion letter sets out our opinion on certain matters of the laws with general applicability of the Netherlands, and, insofar as they are directly applicable in the Netherlands, of the European Union, as at today's date and as presently interpreted under published authoritative case law of the Dutch courts, the General Court and the Court of Justice of the European Union. We do not express any opinion on Dutch or European competition law, data protection law, tax law, securitisation law or regulatory law. No undertaking is assumed on our part to revise, update or amend this opinion letter in connection with, or to notify or inform you of, any developments and/or changes of Dutch law subsequent to today's date. We do not purport to opine on the consequences of amendments to the Plans, the Registration Statement or the Corporate Documents subsequent to the date of this opinion letter.

they will be in force at each Relevant Moment;

in this opinion letter and to any matters, documents or events not disclosed to us, we express the following opinions:

**Corporate Status**

1. The Company has been duly incorporated as a *besloten vennootschap met beperkte aansprakelijkheid* and is validly existing as a *naamloze vennootschap*.

**Plan Shares**

2. Subject to receipt by the Company of payment in full for, or other satisfaction of the issue price of, the Plan Shares in accordance with the relevant Plan, and when issued and accepted in accordance with such Plan, the Plan Shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

The opinions expressed above are subject to the following qualifications:

A.Opinion 1 must not be read to imply that the Company cannot be dissolved (*ontbonden*). A company such as the Company may be dissolved, inter alia by the competent court at the request of the company's board of directors, any interested party (*belanghebbende*) or the public prosecution office in certain circumstances, such as when there are certain defects in the incorporation of the company. Any such dissolution will not have retro-active effect.

B.Pursuant to Section 2:7 DCC, any transaction entered into by a legal entity may be nullified by the legal entity itself or its liquidator in bankruptcy proceedings (*curator*) if the objects of that entity were transgressed by the transaction and the other party to the transaction knew or should have known this without independent investigation (*wist of zonder eigen onderzoek moest weten*). The Dutch Supreme Court (*Hoge Raad der Nederlanden*) has ruled that in determining whether the objects of a legal entity are transgressed, not only the description of the objects in that legal entity's articles of association (*statuten*) is decisive, but all (relevant) circumstances must be taken into account, in particular whether the interests of the legal entity were served by the transaction. Based on the objects clause contained in the Current Articles, we have no reason to believe that, by making Awards under either of the Plans, the Company would transgress the description of the objects contained in its Articles of Association. However, we cannot assess whether there are other relevant circumstances that must be taken into account, in particular whether the interests of the Company are served by making Awards under either of the

Plans since this is a matter of fact.

C.Pursuant to Section 2:98c DCC, a company such as the Company may grant loans (*leningen verstrekken*) only in accordance with the restrictions set out in Section 2:98c DCC, and may not provide security (*zekerheid stellen*), give a price guarantee (*koersgarantie geven*) or otherwise bind itself, whether jointly and severally or otherwise with or for third parties (*zich op andere wijze sterk maken of zich hoofdelijk of anderszins naast of voor anderen verbinden*) with a view to (*met het oog op*) the subscription or acquisition by third parties of shares in its share capital or depository receipts. This prohibition also applies to its subsidiaries (*dochtervennootschappen*). It is generally assumed that a transaction entered into in violation of Section 2:98c DCC is null and void (*nietig*). Based on the content of the Plans, we have no reason to believe that the Company or its subsidiaries will violate Section 2:98c DCC in connection with the issue of Plan Shares. However, we cannot confirm this definitively, since the determination of whether a company (or a subsidiary) has provided security, has given a price guarantee or has otherwise bound itself, with a view to the subscription or acquisition by third parties of shares in its share capital or depository receipts, as described above, is a matter of fact.

D.The opinions expressed in this opinion letter may be limited or affected by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;a.rules relating to Insolvency Proceedings or similar proceedings under a foreign law and other rules affecting creditors' rights generally;
