**Co-Investment and Share Option Matching Sub Plan**

Effective as of May 5, 2026 (the "Effective Date"), Nomad Foods Limited (the "Company") implemented a Co-Investment and Share Option Matching Sub Plan (the "Matching Plan"), under its 2025 Equity Incentive Plan (the "EIP"). The purpose of the Matching Plan is to provide an incentive to certain members of the Company's board of directors and senior leadership team to maintain and/or increase their existing ownership of ordinary shares of the Company through the investment of their own capital and receive a grant of options to purchase additional ordinary shares, the value of which is directly linked to the Company's ordinary share price performance ("Options"). The program is designed to attract and retain top-tier leadership talent while ensuring that their interests are aligned with the Company's shareholders.

The initial participants in the Matching Plan include the Company's Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, each of the Co-Chairmen and certain other members of senior management (the "Designated Persons"). Each Designated Person has been granted an Option to purchase the maximum number of ordinary shares set forth in the table below, with the maximum number of ordinary shares subject to such Option based on the requirement that such Designated Person purchases and holds a specified number of ordinary shares ("Share Purchase Target") during the purchase period beginning one year before, and ending 13 months after, the Effective Date (the "Purchase Period"). A maximum of up to 1,500,000 Options is expected to be allocated to certain other members of senior management based on the Share Price Target and Share Price Hurdles set forth in the table below (the "Share Price Hurdles"). If any Designated Person purchases less than the Share Purchase Target, the number of ordinary shares subject to the Designated Person's Option will be reduced on a pro rata basis.

Each Option granted under the Matching Plan will have a five year term, will vest based upon the achievement of the Share Price Hurdles and the vested portion of which will be exercisable between the third anniversary and the fifth anniversary of the Grant Date (the "Exercise Period"). Any exercise of the Options under the Matching Plan for Designated Persons who are employees will be accomplished through a net settlement procedure, such that upon exercise, the Company issues shares net of the exercise price and any related withholding taxes. For those Designated Persons who are not employees, upon exercise of their Options, they will receive the gross number of shares and be responsible for paying their own taxes.

The initial Options under the Matching Plan were granted on May 7, 2026 (the "Grant Date") with an exercise price equal to the closing share price on that day (and assuming satisfaction of the Share Purchase Target during the Purchase Period). As stated above, the number of shares available to be purchased under the Option (i.e., that will vest) will depend on the achievement of the Share Price Hurdles which will be calculated based on a 20 day VWAP during the term of the Option. If at any time during the term of the Option, the 20 day VWAP reaches a Share Price Hurdle, the target will be considered achieved for that Share Price Hurdle and, as a result, the percentage of shares subject to the Option will vest at that time (as set forth in more detail in the table above). If, at a later date, a higher further Share Price Hurdle is achieved, that will be considered the achievement and, as a result, that percentage of shares subject to the Option will vest at that time. Although no Option will be exercisable prior to the third anniversary of the Grant Date, the vesting price target can be achieved before this date. Once the third anniversary has passed, and provided that the Designated Person has remained in Continuous Service until that point (except in limited circumstances), each Designated Person can then exercise the vested portion of their Option at any time during the Exercise Period, and they can also choose to exercise twice in the two-year period, 50% each time.

The individual award agreements governing the Options (the "Option Agreements") contain customary termination, lock-up and clawback provisions usually included in agreements of this nature. The Option Agreements also contain an accelerated vesting on the date of any Change of Control of the Company subject to the achievement of any Share Price Hurdle at that time.

This Report on Form 6-K is hereby incorporated by reference into the registration statements on (i) Form S-8 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on May 3, 2016 (File No. 333-211095), (ii) Form F-3, initially filed with the Commission on March 30, 2017 and declared effective on May 2, 2017 (File No. 333-217044), (iii) Form S-8 filed with the Commission on June 16, 2025 (File No. 333-288081) and (iv) Form F-3ASR filed with the Commission on March 5, 2026, which was automatically effective upon filing with the Commission (File No. 333-294059).
