	(a)	The parties agree that the Purchase Price shall be adjusted as follows: 

	 	(i)	On the Closing Date (or such other date on or about Closing as reasonably agreed to by the Parties), the Parties will conduct a joint physical review of the Inventory in accordance with the methodology set forth in
Schedule 2.8 (“Joint Inventory Review”): 

  

	 	1.	If the Joint Inventory Review reveals that actual Inventory value (“Actual Inventory Value”) is greater than the baseline value of Inventory set forth in Schedule 2.8 (“Baseline
Inventory Value”), the Purchase Price shall be increased, on a dollar for dollar basis, by an amount equal to the difference between the Actual Inventory Value and the Baseline Inventory Value. 

 

	 	2.	If the Joint Inventory Review reveals that the Actual Inventory Value is lesser than the Baseline Inventory Value, the Purchase Price shall be reduced, on a dollar for dollar basis, by an amount equal to the difference
between the Baseline Inventory Value and the Actual Inventory Value. 

  

	 	(ii)	The Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the Hired Active Employees’ accrued vacation amount owing by Seller as at Closing and which shall be assumed by Buyer as at Closing.

Schedule 3 of the LOI or any other provision thereof or based on discussions with Business clients or suppliers. 

  

	2.9	CONSENTS 

  

	(a)	Seller shall use Best Efforts to obtain on or about the Closing the Material Consents from the co-contractant for the assignment of the relevant Assumed Contract from Seller to Buyer in the context of the Contemplated
Transactions. If there are any Material Consents that have not yet been obtained (or otherwise are not in full force and effect) as of the Closing, in the case of each Assumed Contract as to which such Material Consents were not obtained (or
otherwise are not in full force and effect) (the “Restricted Material Contracts”), Buyer may waive the closing conditions as to any such Material Consent and Seller shall continue its efforts to obtain the Material
Consents. 

 If Closing occurs, notwithstanding Sections 2.1 and 2.4, neither this Agreement nor any other document
related to the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions shall constitute a sale, assignment, assumption, transfer, conveyance or delivery or an attempted sale, assignment, assumption, transfer, conveyance or delivery of the corresponding
Restricted Material Contract, and following the Closing, the parties shall use Best Efforts, and cooperate with each other, to obtain the Material Consent relating to each such Restricted Material Contract as quickly as practicable. Pending the

	 	
obtaining of such Material Consents relating to any Restricted Material Contract, the parties shall cooperate with each other in any reasonable and lawful arrangements designed to provide to
Buyer the benefits of use of the Restricted Material Contract for its term (or any right or benefit arising thereunder, including the enforcement for the benefit of Buyer of any and all rights of Seller against a third party thereunder). Once a
Material Consent for the sale, assignment, assumption, transfer, conveyance and delivery of a Restricted Material Contract is obtained, Seller shall promptly assign, transfer, convey and deliver such Restricted Material Contract to Buyer, and Buyer
shall assume the obligations under such Restricted Material Contract assigned to Buyer from and after the date of assignment to Buyer pursuant to a special-purpose assignment and assumption agreement (which special-purpose agreement the parties
shall prepare, execute and deliver in good faith at the time of such transfer, all at no additional cost to Buyer). 

  

	(b)	For those Consents not listed on Schedule 6.3 and necessary for the assignment and transfer of any Assumed Contracts to Buyer (the “Nonmaterial Consents”), the parties shall following the
Closing, use Best Efforts, and cooperate with each other, to obtain the Nonmaterial Consents as quickly as practicable. Pending the obtaining of such Nonmaterial Consents, the parties shall cooperate with each other in any reasonable and lawful
arrangements designed to provide to Buyer the benefits of use of the specific underlying Assumed Contract for its term (or any right or benefit arising thereunder, including the enforcement for the benefit of Buyer of any and all rights of Seller
against a third party thereunder). Once a Nonmaterial Consent for the sale, assignment, assumption, transfer, conveyance and delivery of an Assumed Contract is obtained, Seller shall promptly assign, transfer, convey and deliver such Nonmaterial
Contract to Buyer, and Buyer shall assume the obligations under such Assumed Contract assigned to Buyer from and after the date of assignment to Buyer. 

  

	2.10	DUE DILIGENCE 

 Further to the LOI, Buyer has delivered to Seller a Due Diligence Notice dated
June 26, 2015 whereby Buyer confirmed having completed its Due Diligence (as defined in the LOI), subject to review of Highly Sensitive Information (as defined in the LOI) and discussions with employees, suppliers and customers including
consents on transfer of Assumed Contracts. Prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, Buyer has completed its due diligence on the Highly Sensitive Information. Buyer declares itself satisfied with all due diligence results up to the
date of this Agreement and acknowledges that is has no further right to due diligence in connection with the Contemplated Transactions, except (i) in respect of any material information which would have been inaccurate or incomplete when
provided by Seller to Buyer; (ii) Buyer’s communications with key clients of the Business pertaining to the Material Consents (and which will only be allowed once Buyer has confirmed in writing to Seller the execution of definitive
agreements by Buyer for its financing of the Contemplated Transactions); and (iii) the whole without prejudice to the Buyer’s rights of indemnification pursuant to Article X hereunder.

expressed intent and retain the allocation of economic benefits and burdens to the parties contemplated herein in a manner that is not prohibited by law. 

 

	 	(iii)	Without limiting Buyer’s obligations pursuant to 9.1(b), Buyer shall not have any responsibility, liability or obligation, whether to Hired Active Employees, former employees, their beneficiaries or to any other
Person, with respect to those specific employee benefit plans or programs maintained by Seller.

	9.3	PAYMENT OF RETAINED LIABILITIES 

 Following Closing, Seller shall pay or otherwise
satisfy all of its Liabilities and obligations pertaining to the Inventory or Assets, if failure to make any payments could impair Buyer’s use or enjoyment of the Assets or conduct of the Business as previously conducted by Seller with the
Assets. 
  

	9.4	REPORTS AND RETURNS 

 Seller shall promptly after the Closing prepare and file all
reports and returns required by Legal Requirements relating to the Business as conducted using the Assets, to and including the Closing Date.

counsel in the contest or defense of, and make available its personnel and provide any testimony and access to its books and Records in connection with, any Proceeding involving or relating to (a) any Contemplated Transaction or
(b) any action, activity, circumstance, condition, conduct, event, fact, failure to act, incident, occurrence, plan, practice, situation, status or transaction on, before or after the Closing Date involving the Business. 

 

	9.6	CUSTOMER AND OTHER BUSINESS RELATIONSHIPS 

 For a reasonable period after the Closing
Seller will reasonably cooperate with Buyer in its efforts to continue and maintain for the benefit of Buyer those business relationships of Seller existing prior to the Closing and relating to the Business to be operated by Buyer after the Closing,

lessors, employees, regulatory authorities, licensors, customers, suppliers and others in a manner that is not detrimental to any of such relationships. Seller will refer to Buyer all inquiries
relating to such Business. 
  

	9.7	RETENTION OF AND ACCESS TO RECORDS 

 After the Closing Date, Buyer shall retain for a

	9.8	FURTHER ASSURANCES 

 Subject to the proviso in Section 6.1, the parties shall
cooperate reasonably with each other in connection with any steps required to be taken as part of their respective obligations under this Agreement, and shall (a) furnish upon request to each other such further information;
(b) execute and deliver to each other such other documents; and (c) do such other acts and things, all as the other party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out the intent of this Agreement and the Contemplated
Transactions. 
  

	9.9	NON COMPETITION AND NON SOLICITATION 

  

	(a)	For the purpose of this Section 9.9, 

 “Direct Competition Restrictive Period” means the

 “Indirect Competition Restrictive Period” means a period of three
(3) years immediately following the Closing. 
 “Territory” means Canada and the United States of America. 

“Seller Restrictive Covenants” means the Seller’s restrictive covenants pursuant to paragraph b) of this Section 9.9 below. 

 

	(b)	As an inducement for Buyer to enter into this Agreement and subject to the conditions below: 

  

	 	i)	During the Direct Competition Restrictive Period, the Seller will not, 

  

	 	A.	in the Territory, sell Seller’s products to Corporate Clients or Approved Distributors or invest in, own, manage, operate, finance, control or participate in the ownership, management, operation, financing or
control of any Person engaged in or known as of the date hereof or who shall become known to the Seller during the Direct Competition Restrictive Period to be planning to engage in the sale of Seller’s products to Corporate Clients and Approved
Distributors; 

	 	B.	solicit for employment any Hired Active Employee, provided that in all cases the posting of a position does not constitute solicitation; and

 The Seller agrees that the covenants in
this paragraph b) are reasonable with respect to their duration, geographical area and scope. 
  

	(c)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in paragraph 9.9 b) above shall prevent Seller from selling, or restrict Seller’s ability to sell, products to any person that purchases from Seller’s retail stores or
websites open to the general public, provided that such purchases are occasional and not managed on a wide scale. For greater clarity, nothing herein shall be interpreted to prevent Seller from selling to entities that re-sell directly or indirectly
to retail consumers (such as through retailers, franchisees, wholesale distributors, or others). 

  

	(d)	The parties agree that any violation of paragraph 9.9 b) will cause such damage to Buyer, which in addition to any damages that may be claimed, would be irreparable and the exact amount thereof would be impossible to
ascertain and, for that reason, Seller agrees that Buyer shall have the right to seek an injunction and other specific performance measures to be issued by any competent Court, and in such event, the Buyer shall not be required to deposit or post
any security for costs.

ARTICLE X 
 SURVIVAL
AND INDEMNIFICATION

 All representations, warranties, covenants and obligations in this Agreement, the certificates
delivered pursuant to Section 2.7 and any other certificate or document delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall survive the Closing and the consummation of the Contemplated Transactions for a period of twelve (12) months, subject to
Section 10.7. The right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon such representations, warranties, covenants and obligations shall not be affected by any investigation conducted at any time, whether before or after the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, with respect to the accuracy or inaccuracy of or 

 
compliance with any such representation, warranty, covenant or obligation. Unless agreed otherwise in writing between Buyer and Seller at Closing, the waiver of any condition based upon the
accuracy of any representation or warranty, or on the performance of or compliance with any covenant or obligation, will constitute a valid waiver of the right to indemnification, reimbursement or other remedy based upon such representations,
warranties, covenants and obligations. 
  

	10.2	INDEMNIFICATION BY SELLER 

 Seller will indemnify and hold harmless Buyer for any damage or expense
(including costs of investigation and defense and reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) or diminution of value, whether or not involving a Third-Party Claim (collectively, “Damages”), arising from: 

 

	(a)	any Breach of any representation or warranty made by Seller in (i) this Agreement, or (ii) the bringdown certificate delivered by Seller pursuant to Section 2.7(a) (for this purpose, including the
Schedules attached to each such certificate will be deemed to have stated that Seller’s representations and warranties in this Agreement fulfill the requirements of Section 6.1 as of the Closing Date as if made on the Closing Date unless
the certificate expressly states that the matters disclosed in a supplement have caused a condition specified in Section 6.1 not to be satisfied); 

  

	(b)	any Breach of any covenant or obligation of Seller in this Agreement; 

  

	(c)	any Liability arising out of the ownership or operation of the Assets prior to the Closing Date, other than the Assumed Liabilities; 

 

	(d)	any brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions or similar payments based upon any agreement or understanding made, or alleged to have been made, by any Person with Seller (or any Person acting on its behalf) in
connection with any of the Contemplated Transactions; 

  

	(e)	any product or component thereof manufactured by or shipped, or any services provided by, Seller in respect of the Business prior to the Closing Date; 

 

	(f)	any Liabilities of Seller which are not Assumed Liabilities.

	(a)	any Breach of any representation or warranty made by Buyer in this Agreement or the bringdown certificate delivered by Buyer pursuant to Section 2.7(b) ; 

 

	(b)	any Breach of any covenant or obligation of Buyer in this Agreement, including without limitation in respect of Hired Active Employees, as described in Section 9.1; 

 

	(c)	any Liability arising out of the ownership or operation of the Assets or Business on or after the Closing Date; 

  

	(d)	 any brokerage or finder’s fees or commissions or similar payments based upon

	 	
any agreement or understanding made, or alleged to have been made, by any Person with Buyer (or any Person acting on its behalf) in connection with any of the Contemplated Transactions;

  

	(e)	any product or component thereof manufactured by or shipped, or any services provided by, Buyer in respect of the Business on or after the Closing Date; or 

 

	(f)	any Assumed Liabilities. 

  

	10.4	NOTICE OF CLAIM 

 The notice of a claim will not constitute an election of remedies or limit the
claiming party in any manner in the enforcement of any other remedies that may be available to it hereunder. 
  

	10.5	THIRD-PARTY CLAIMS 

  

	(a)	Promptly after receipt by the Party entitled to indemnity under Section 10.2 or 10.3 (an “Indemnified Person”) of notice of the assertion of a Third-Party Claim against it, such Indemnified Person
shall give written notice to the Person obligated to indemnify under such Section (an “Indemnifying Person”) of the assertion of such Third-Party Claim, provided that the failure to notify the Indemnifying Person will not
relieve the Indemnifying Person of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Person, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person demonstrates that the defense of such Third-Party Claim is prejudiced by the Indemnified Person’s
failure to give, or undue delay in giving, such written notice. 

  

	(b)	 If an Indemnified Person gives notice to the Indemnifying Person pursuant to Section 10.5(a) of the
assertion of a Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall be entitled to participate in the defense of such Third-Party Claim and, to the extent that it wishes (unless (i) the Indemnifying Person is also a Person against whom the
Third-Party Claim is made and the Indemnified Person determines in good faith that joint representation would be inappropriate or (ii) the Indemnifying Person fails to provide reasonable assurance to the Indemnified Person of its financial
capacity to defend such Third-Party Claim and provide indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim), to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, with counsel satisfactory to the Indemnified Person, acting reasonably. After notice from
the Indemnifying Person to the Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall not, so long as it diligently conducts such defense, be liable to the Indemnified Person under this
X for any fees of other counsel or any other expenses with respect to the defense of such Third-Party Claim, in each case subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Person in connection with the defense of such Third-Party Claim, other than
reasonable costs of investigation. If the Indemnifying Person assumes the defense of a Third-Party Claim, no compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims may be effected by the Indemnifying Person without the Indemnified Person’s Consent
unless (a) there is no finding or admission of any violation of Legal Requirement or any violation of the rights of any Person; (b) the sole relief provided is monetary damages that are paid or payable in full

	 	
by the Indemnifying Person; and (c) the Indemnified Person shall have no liability with respect to any compromise or settlement of such Third-Party Claims effected without its Consent. If
notice is given to an Indemnifying Person of the assertion of any Third-Party Claim and the Indemnifying Person does not, within ten (10) Business Days after the Indemnified Person’s written notice is received, give notice to the
Indemnified Person of its election to assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Person shall be deemed to have waived such right to assume the defense and the Indemnified Person may agree to any compromise or settlement in
respect of such Third Party Claim. 

  

	(c)	Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Indemnified Person determines in good faith that there is a reasonable probability that a Third-Party Claim may adversely affect it or its Related Persons other than as a result of
monetary damages for which it would be entitled to indemnification under this Agreement, the Indemnified Person may, by notice to the Indemnifying Person, assume the exclusive right to defend, compromise or settle such Third-Party Claim.

  

	(d)	In all cases, the Indemnifying Person will not be bound by any determination of any Third-Party Claim so defended by the Indemnified Person for the purposes of this Agreement or any compromise or settlement effected
without its Consent. 

  

	(e)	Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 12.9, the Indemnifying Person hereby consents to the nonexclusive jurisdiction of any court in which a Proceeding in respect of a Third-Party Claim is brought against the
Indemnified Person for purposes of any claim that the Indemnified Person may have under this Agreement with respect to such Proceeding or the matters alleged therein. 

 

	(f)	With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Article X: (i) Both the Indemnified Person and the Indemnifying Person, as the case may be, shall keep the other Person fully
informed of the status of such Third-Party Claim and any related Proceedings at all stages thereof where such Person is not represented by its own counsel, and (ii) the parties agree (each at its own expense) to render to each other such
assistance as they may reasonably require of each other and to cooperate in good faith with each other in order to ensure the proper and adequate defense of any Third-Party Claim. 

 

	(g)	With respect to any Third-Party Claim subject to indemnification under this Article X, the parties agree to cooperate in such a manner as to preserve in full (to the extent possible) the confidentiality of all
Confidential Information and the attorney-client and work-product privileges. In connection therewith, each party agrees that: (i) it will use its Best Efforts, in respect of any Third-Party Claim in which it has assumed or participated in
the defense, to avoid production of Confidential Information (consistent with applicable law and rules of procedure), and (ii) all communications between any party hereto and counsel responsible for or participating in the defense of any
Third-Party Claim shall, to the extent possible, be made so as to preserve any applicable attorney-client or work-product privilege. 

	10.6	OTHER CLAIMS 

 A claim for indemnification for any matter not involving a Third-Party Claim may be
asserted by written notice to the party from whom indemnification is sought. 
  

	10.7	LIMITATION 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing and any other provision hereunder or right at law, the claims
which may be made herein by Buyer from or against Seller and Seller’s indemnification obligations hereunder shall be limited as follows: 
  

	(a)	No claim or claims may be made unless the aggregate of all such claims exceeds One Hundred Thirty Thousand Dollars ($130,000); 

  

	(b)	The maximum amount of all claims shall not in the aggregate exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the Purchase Price; and 

  

	(c)	No claim may be made more than twelve (12) months after the Closing Date except with respect to the title on the Assets or any of them or in the event of fraud. 

 

	10.8	INDEMNIFICATION AS ADJUSTMENT 

 All indemnification payments, if any, made pursuant to this
Article X will be treated as an adjustment to the Purchase Price unless otherwise required by Legal Requirement.

	(a)	As used in this Article XI, the term “Confidential Information” includes any and all of the following information of Seller or Buyer that has been or may hereafter be disclosed in any form, whether
in writing, orally, electronically or otherwise, or otherwise made available by observation, inspection or otherwise by either party (Buyer on the one hand or Seller, on the other hand) each party being a “Disclosing Party” or
a “Receiving Party”, as the case may be: 

  

	 	(i)	all information that is a trade secret under applicable trade secret or other law; 

  

	 	(ii)	all information concerning product specifications, data, know-how, formulae, compositions, processes, designs, sketches, photographs, graphs, drawings, samples, inventions and ideas, past, current and planned research

budgets and plans, business plans, strategic plans, marketing and advertising plans, publications, client and customer lists and files, contracts, the names and backgrounds of key personnel and

	 	(iv)	all notes, analyses, compilations, studies, summaries and other material prepared by the Receiving Party to the extent containing or based, in whole or in part, upon any information included in the foregoing.

  

	(b)	Any trade secrets of a Disclosing Party shall also be entitled to all of the protections and benefits under applicable trade secret law and any other applicable law. If any information that a Disclosing Party deems to
be a trade secret is found by a court of competent jurisdiction not to be a trade secret for purposes of this Article XI, such information shall still be considered Confidential Information of that Disclosing Party for purposes of this
Article XI to the extent included within the definition. In the case of trade secrets, each of Buyer and Seller hereby waives any requirement that the other party submit proof of the economic value of any trade secret or post a bond or other
security. 

  

	11.2	RESTRICTED USE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION 

  

	(a)	Unless and until this Agreement is terminated, Seller shall maintain as confidential any Confidential Information (including for this purpose any information of Seller of the type referred to in Sections 11.1(a)(i),
(ii) and (iii), whether or not disclosed to Buyer) of the Seller which forms part of the Assets or the Assumed Liabilities. 

  

	(b)	Until Closing, Buyer shall maintain as confidential, and shall not use for any purpose other than the negotiation and finalization of the Contemplated Transactions, any Confidential Information of the Seller, whether or
not it forms part of the Assets, Business, Assumed Contracts or Assumed Liabilities. 

  

	(c)	From and after the Closing, Buyer shall be entitled to: i) use the Confidential Information which forms part of the Assets, Business, Assumed Contracts or Assumed Liabilities; and ii) disclose the Confidential
Information which forms part of the Assets, Business, Assumed Contracts or Assumed Liabilities, save and except to the extent for such information also remains Confidential Information of the Seller(including Seller’s financial results or
information relating to the Business, Seller’s cost of goods for the Business, Seller’s pricing for the Business). 

  

	11.3	LEGAL PROCEEDINGS 

 If a Receiving Party becomes compelled in any Proceeding or is requested by a
Governmental Body having regulatory jurisdiction over the Contemplated Transactions to make any disclosure that is prohibited or otherwise constrained by this Article XI, that Receiving Party shall provide the Disclosing Party with prompt
written notice of such compulsion or request so that it may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive compliance with the provisions of this Article XI. In 

 
the absence of a protective order or other remedy, the Receiving Party may disclose that portion (and only that portion) of the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party that the Receiving
Party is legally compelled to disclose or that has been requested by such Governmental Body, provided, however, that the Receiving Party shall use reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded by any
Person to whom any Confidential Information is so disclosed. The provisions of this Section 11.3 do not apply to any Proceedings between the parties to this Agreement. 
  

	11.4	RETURN OR DESTRUCTION OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION 

 If this Agreement is terminated, each Receiving Party
shall (a) destroy all Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party prepared or generated by the Receiving Party without retaining a copy of any such material; (b) promptly deliver to the Disclosing Party all other Confidential
Information of the Disclosing Party, together with all copies thereof, in the possession, custody or control of the Receiving Party or, alternatively, with the written consent of a Seller Contact or a Buyer Contact (whichever represents the
Disclosing Party) i) destroy all such Confidential Information; and (ii) certify all such destruction in writing to the Disclosing Party, provided, however, that the Receiving Party may retain a list that contains general descriptions of the
information it has returned or destroyed to facilitate the resolution of any controversies after the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information is returned. 
  

	11.5	INJUNCTIVE RELIEF  

 Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Party would be irreparably damaged
if any of the provisions of this Article XI are not performed in accordance with their specific terms and that any Breach of this Article XI could not be adequately compensated in all cases by monetary damages alone. Accordingly, in
addition to any other right or remedy to which a Party may be entitled, at law or in equity, it shall be entitled to enforce any provision of this Article XI by a decree of specific performance and to temporary, preliminary and permanent
injunctive relief to prevent Breaches or threatened Breaches of this Article XI, without posting any bond or other undertaking.

 Exhibit 10.1 
  

 
 May 9, 2016 

Mr. Michael W. Kalb 
 24 Lucille Lane 

Dix Hills, New York 11746 
 Dear Mike: 

On behalf of Amarin Corporation plc (the “Company”), I am pleased to offer you employment in the role the Company’s Senior Vice
President and Chief Financial Officer under the following terms. 
 1. Position: Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer is
a full-time position as an officer of the Company. It is understood and agreed that, while you render services to the Company, you will not engage in any other employment, consulting or other business activities (whether full-time or part-time).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, you may engage in religious, charitable, or other community activities so long as such services or activities do not interfere or conflict with your obligations to the Company. In addition to your role as Senior Vice
President of the Company, you acknowledge and agree that you may be required, without additional compensation, to perform duties for certain affiliated entities of the Company, including without limitation Amarin Pharma, Inc., and to accept any
reasonable office or position with any such affiliate as the Company’s Board of Directors may require, including, but not limited to, service as an officer or director of any such affiliate. 

2. Work Location: Your principal place of employment will be the Company’s offices which are currently located in Bedminster, New
Jersey, subject to business travel requirements. 
 3. Start Date: Unless otherwise agreed, your first day of employment will be
July 5, 2016, or such earlier date as may be mutually determined. 
 4. Salary: The Company will pay you a salary at the annual
rate of $400,000 subject to periodic review and adjustment at the discretion of the Company. Currently our policy is to make salary payments semi-monthly. 

5. Bonuses: You will be eligible to receive annual performance bonuses. The Company will target the bonus of up to 40% of your salary
for the year. The actual bonus is discretionary and will be subject to the Company’s assessment of your performance, as well as business conditions at the Company. The bonus also will be subject to your employment for the full period covered by
the bonus, approval by and adjustment at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors or an authorized committee thereof, and the terms of any applicable bonus plan. The Company may also make adjustments in the targeted amount of your
annual performance bonus. Any bonus awarded to you will be paid by March 15 of the year following the bonus year to which such bonus relates. 

 

 
  

 6. Special Bonus: On September15, 2016, you will receive a lump sum bonus of $25,000
(less applicable withholdings and deductions) . In order to not forfeit this special bonus, you must not resign your employment or be terminated for cause prior to July 5, 2017. 

7. Benefits: You will be eligible to participate in the employee benefits and insurance programs generally made available to the
Company’s full-time employees, including health, life, disability and dental insurance. You will be eligible for up to 18 days of paid time off or such other amount determined by the Company, which shall accrue and in other respects be
administered in accordance with the Company’s policy from time to time. You will be reimbursed for all reasonable business expenses you incur while carrying out your duties on behalf of the Company; provided such reimbursement shall be
conditioned on you following the Company’s reimbursement policies and claims procedure, including by providing reasonable documentation of such expenses. 

8. Stock Options: You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s stock option program, subject to approval by the Board of
Directors. After you join the Company, we will recommend the grant to you of an option to purchase 625,000 ordinary shares of the Company. Under current Company policy, the exercise price of your stock option will be equal to the closing price of
the Company’s American Depository Shares (ADS) on The NASDAQ Stock Market at the close of the first trading day of the month following your Start Date. Vesting of such stock option will be scheduled over a four year period with 25% vesting
after one year after your Start Date and the balance vesting monthly over the subsequent thirty-six months. 
 9. Equity: The terms
and conditions of your equity awards shall be set forth in a stock option and/or restricted stock agreements, as applicable, that are expected to substantially reflect the various terms and conditions of the Company’s 2011 Stock Incentive Plan
as may be amended from time to time (collectively the “Equity Documents”) provided, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Equity Documents, Section 8 of this Agreement shall control with respect to any of your equity
interests that are unvested as of the Date of Termination, provided further, nothing herein shall be construed to be less favorable to you than the terms of the Equity Documents. 

10. At-will Employment, Accrued Obligations; Severance: Your employment is “at will” meaning you or the Company may terminate
it at any time for any or no reason. In the event of the termination of your employment for any reason, the Company shall pay you the Accrued Obligations, defined as (1) your base salary through the date of termination, (2) an amount equal
to the value of your accrued unused paid time off days, if any, and (3) the amount of any business expenses properly incurred by you on behalf of the Company prior to any such termination and not yet reimbursed, if any, within ten
(10) days of the last day of your employment (“Date of Termination”). In addition to the Accrued Obligations, in the event the Company terminates your employment without Cause at any time, or during the twenty-four (24) month
period that immediately follows a Change of Control (the “Post-Change in Control 

 

 
  

 
Period”) the Company terminates your employment without Cause or you terminate your employment for Good Reason (defined below), the Company shall provide you with the following termination
benefits (the “Termination Benefits”), depending on the Date of Termination: 
  

	 	(i)	continuation of your base salary then in effect during the “Salary Continuation Period” which shall be either: (A) six (6) months from the Date of Termination, if the Company terminates your
employment without Cause and the Date of Termination occurs at any time outside of the Post-Change in Control Period, or (B) twelve (12) months from the Date of Termination, if the Company terminates your employment without Cause or you
terminate your employment for Good Reason and, in either case, the Date of Termination occurs during the Post-Change in Control Period. Solely for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, each Salary
Continuation Payment during the Salary Continuation Period is considered a separate payment; 

  

	 	(ii)	continuation of group health plan benefits to the extent authorized by and consistent with 29 U.S.C. § 1161 et seq. (commonly known as “COBRA”), with the cost of the regular premium for such benefits
shared in the same relative proportion by the Company and you as in effect on the date of termination until the earlier of: (i) the end of the Salary Continuation Period, and (ii) the date you become eligible for health benefits through
another employer or otherwise become ineligible for COBRA; 

  

	 	(iii)	if the Company terminates your employment without Cause or you terminate your employment for Good Reason and, in either case, the Date of Termination occurs during the Post-Change in Control Period, a lump sum cash
payment equal to your target annual performance bonus for the year during which the Date of Termination occurs; 

  

	 	(iv)	if the Company terminates your employment without Cause and the Date of Termination occurs outside of the Post-Change in Control Period, six (6) months of accelerated vesting from the Date of Termination with
respect to any of your then outstanding stock options, restricted stock units or other equity incentive awards (in each case, only to the extent subject to time-based vesting); and 

 

	 	(v)	if the Company terminates your employment without Cause or you terminate your employment for Good Reason and, in either case, the Date of Termination occurs during the Post-Change in Control Period, then outstanding
stock options, restricted stock units or other equity incentive awards (whether or not subject to time based vesting) shall immediately vest in full effective upon the Date of Termination. 

 

 
  

 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, you shall not be entitled to any Termination
Benefits unless you first (i) enter into, do not revoke, and comply with the terms of a separation agreement in a form acceptable to the Company which shall include a release of claims against the Company and related persons and entities (the
“Release”), provided that the Release shall not require you to release (a) claims to enforce your right to receive Termination Benefits; (b) claims for vested benefits pursuant to ERISA; (c) claims with respect to your
vested equity rights as of the Date of Termination; (d) claims to enforce the Company’s obligation to indemnify you to the extent such indemnification obligations exist; and (e) claims which legally may not be waived; (ii) resign
from any and all positions, including, without implication of limitation, as a director, trustee, and officer, that you then hold with the Company and any affiliate of the Company; and (iii) return all Company property and comply with any
instructions related to deleting and purging duplicates of such Company property, in each case within the time period designated by the Company but in no event later than 60 days of the Date of Termination. The Salary Continuation Payments shall
commence within 60 days after the Date of Termination and shall be made on the Company’s regular payroll dates; provided, however, that if the 60-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in a second calendar year, the Salary Continuation
Payments shall begin to be paid in the second calendar year. In the event you miss a regular payroll period between the Date of Termination and first Salary Continuation Payment, the first Salary Continuation Payment shall include a “catch
up” payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you breach any of the material provisions of this Agreement or the Nondisclosure Developments and Non-competition Agreement, in addition to all other rights and remedies, the Company shall have the
right to terminate or cease payment of the Termination Benefits. For the avoidance of doubt, you shall not be entitled to the Termination Benefits in the event your employment ends due to your death or disability. 

11. Definitions: For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings: 

“Cause” shall mean: (i) conduct by you constituting an act of material misconduct in connection with the performance of your duties, including,
without limitation, misappropriation of funds or property of the Company other than the occasional, customary and de minimis use of Company property for personal purposes; (ii) the commission by you of (A) any felony; or (B) a
misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, deceit, dishonesty or fraud; (iii) any conduct by you that would reasonably be expected to result in material injury or reputational harm to the Company or any of its subsidiaries and affiliates if you
were retained; (iv) continued non-performance or continued unsatisfactory performance by you of your responsibilities as reasonably determined by the Company’s Board of Directors; (v) a breach by you of any of the material provisions
of any agreement between you and the Company including, without limitation, any agreement relating to non-disclosure, non-competition or assignment of inventions; (vi) a material violation by you of any of the Company’s written policies or
procedures provided that, other than in the case of noncurable events, you are provided with written notice and fifteen (15) days to cure. 
 The
meaning of “Change of Control” shall be limited to the following events, but only to the extent such events constitute a “change in the ownership or effective control” of the Company or a “change in the ownership of a
substantial portion of the Company’s assets” for purposes of Section 409A of the Code: 

 

 
  

	 	(i)	any person or company (either alone or together with any person or company acting in concert with him or it) (an “Acquiring Company”) obtaining Control of the Company, 

 

	 	(ii)	any person or company that Controls the Company becoming bound or entitled to acquire Shares under sections 974 to 991 of the UK Companies Act 2006, 

 

	 	(iii)	any court sanctioning a compromise or arrangement under section 899 of the UK Companies Act 2006, 

  

	 	(iv)	a resolution being tabled for the voluntary winding-up of the Company, 

  

	 	(v)	any Acquiring Company acquiring all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, 

  

	 	(vii)	any merger, reorganization, consolidation or other similar transaction pursuant to which the holders of the Company’s outstanding voting power and outstanding stock immediately prior to such transaction do not own
a majority of the outstanding voting power and outstanding stock or other equity interests of the Company or any resulting or successor entity (or its ultimate parent, if applicable) immediately upon completion of such transaction,

  

	 	(viii)	the sale of all or a majority of the Shares of the Company to an unrelated person, entity or group thereof acting in concert, or 

  

	 	(ix)	any other similar transaction which the Board determines should constitute a Change of Control for the purposes of the Plan. 

“Control” means the ownership of more than fifty (50) percent of the issued share capital or other equity interest of the Company or the legal
power to direct or cause the direction of the general management and policies of the Company. 
 “Good Reason” shall mean that you have complied
with “Good Reason Process” (hereinafter defined) following the occurrence of any of the following Good Reason conditions that occur without your consent: (i) a material diminution of your base salary; (ii) a material diminution
in your authority, duties or responsibilities; (iii) a material change in the principal location where you are required to provide services for the Company (not including business travel and short-term assignments); and/or (iv) a material
breach by the Company of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason Process” shall mean that: (x) you reasonably determine in good faith that a “Good Reason” condition has occurred; (y) you notify the
Company in writing of the Good Reason condition within thirty (30) days of the first occurrence of such condition; (z) you cooperate in good faith with the Company’s efforts, for a period of

 

 
  

 
thirty (30) days following such notice (the “Cure Period”), to remedy the condition; notwithstanding such efforts, the Good Reason condition continues to exist; and you terminate
your employment within thirty (30) days after the end of the Cure Period. If the Company cures the Good Reason condition during the Cure Period, Good Reason shall be deemed not to have occurred. 

12. Section 280G Limitation: Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that the amount of any
compensation, payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of you, whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise, calculated in a manner consistent with Section 280G
of the Code and the applicable regulations thereunder (the “Severance Payments”), would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, the following provisions shall apply: 

(a) If the Severance Payments, reduced by the sum of (1) the Excise Tax and (2) the total of the Federal, state, and
local income and employment taxes payable by you on the amount of the Severance Payments which are in excess of the Threshold Amount, are greater than or equal to the Threshold Amount, you shall be entitled to the full benefits payable under this
Agreement. 
 (b) If the Threshold Amount is less than (x) the Severance Payments, but greater than (y) the
Severance Payments reduced by the sum of (1) the Excise Tax and (2) the total of the Federal, state, and local income and employment taxes on the amount of the Severance Payments which are in excess of the Threshold Amount, then the
Severance Payments shall be reduced (but not below zero) to the extent necessary so that the sum of all Severance Payments shall not exceed the Threshold Amount. In such event, the Severance Payments shall be reduced in the following order:
(1) cash payments not subject to Section 409A of the Code; (2) cash payments subject to Section 409A of the Code; (3) equity-based payments and acceleration; and (4) non-cash forms of benefits. To the extent any payment
is to be made over time (e.g., in installments, etc.), then the payments shall be reduced in reverse chronological order. 

(c) For the purposes of this Section, “Threshold Amount” shall mean three times your “base amount” within
the meaning of Section 280G(b)(3) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder less one dollar ($1.00); and “Excise Tax” shall mean the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, and any interest or penalties
incurred by you with respect to such excise tax. 
 (d) The determination as to which of the alternative provisions of this
Section 9 shall apply to you shall be made by a nationally recognized accounting firm selected by the Company (the “Accounting Firm”), which shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and you within 15 business
days of the Date of Termination, if applicable, or at such earlier time as is reasonably requested by the Company or you. For purposes of determining which of the alternative provisions of this Section 9 shall apply, you shall be deemed to pay
federal income taxes at the highest 

 

 
  

 
marginal rate of federal income taxation applicable to individuals for the calendar year in which the determination is to be made, and state and local income taxes at the highest marginal rates
of individual taxation in the state and locality of your residence on the date of termination, net of the maximum reduction in federal income taxes which could be obtained from deduction of such state and local taxes. Any determination by the
Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and you. 
 13. Taxes; Section 409A: All forms of compensation referred to in
this letter agreement are subject to reduction to reflect applicable withholdings and payroll taxes and other deductions required by law. You hereby acknowledge that the Company does not have a duty to design its compensation policies in a manner
that minimizes tax liabilities. Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, if at the time of your separation from service within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, the Company determines that you are a “specified
employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, then to the extent any payment or benefit that you become entitled to under this Agreement on account of your separation from service would be considered deferred
compensation subject to the 20 percent additional tax imposed pursuant to Section 409A(a) of the Code as a result of the application of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, such payment shall not be payable and such benefit shall not be
provided until the date that is the earlier of (A) six months and one day after your separation from service, or (B) your death. If any such delayed cash payment is otherwise payable on an installment basis, the first payment shall include
a catch-up payment covering amounts that would otherwise have been paid during the six-month period but for the application of this provision, and the balance of the installments shall be payable in accordance with their original schedule. 

All in-kind benefits provided and expenses eligible for reimbursement under this Agreement shall be provided by the Company or incurred by you during the time
periods set forth in this Agreement. All reimbursements shall be paid as soon as administratively practicable, but in no event shall any reimbursement be paid after the last day of the taxable year following the taxable year in which the expense was
incurred. The amount of in-kind benefits provided or reimbursable expenses incurred in one taxable year shall not affect the in-kind benefits to be provided or the expenses eligible for reimbursement in any other taxable year. Such right to
reimbursement or in-kind benefits is not subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit. 
 To the extent that any payment or benefit described in
this Agreement constitutes “non-qualified deferred compensation” under Section 409A of the Code, and to the extent that such payment or benefit is payable upon the termination of this Agreement, then such payments or benefits shall be
payable only upon your “separation from service.” The determination of whether and when a separation from service has occurred shall be made in accordance with the presumptions set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(h). 
 The parties intend that this Agreement will be administered in accordance with
Section 409A of the Code. To the extent that any provision of this Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such a manner so that all payments hereunder comply with
Section 409A of the Code. The parties agree that this Agreement may be 

 

 
  

 
amended, as reasonably requested by either party, and as may be necessary to fully comply with Section 409A of the Code and all related rules and regulations in order to preserve the
payments and benefits provided hereunder without additional cost to either party. 
 The Company makes no representation or warranty and shall have no
liability to you or any other person if any provisions of this Agreement are determined to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code but do not satisfy an exemption from, or the conditions of, such Section. 

14. Representation Regarding Other Obligations: This offer is conditioned on your representation that you are not subject to any
confidentiality, non-competition agreement or any other similar type of restriction that may affect your ability to devote full time and attention to your work at the Company. If you have entered into any agreement that may restrict your activities
on behalf of the Company, please provide me with a copy of the agreement as soon as possible. 
 15. Other Terms: Your employment
with the Company shall be on an at-will basis. In other words, you or the Company may terminate employment for any reason and at any time, with or without notice, subject to the Termination Benefits provisions herein. Similarly, the terms of
employment outlined in this letter are subject to change at any time. If you have not already done so, you also will be required to sign the Company’s Nondisclosure Developments and Non-competition Agreement as a condition of this letter
agreement and your continued employment, the terms of which shall be incorporated by reference into this letter agreement. A copy of that letter agreement is enclosed. In addition, this letter agreement is contingent on the completion of references
checks and a background investigation that are satisfactory to the Company (as determined by the Company) and your submission of satisfactory proof of your identity and your legal authorization to work in the United States and a satisfactory
Company-paid initial-employment physical and drug screen, in each case to the extent not already completed. 
 16. Interpretation,
Amendment and Enforcement: This Agreement, including the Company’s Nondisclosure Developments and Non-competition Agreement and the Equity Documents, constitute the complete agreement between you and the Company, contain all of the terms of
your employment with the Company and supersede any prior agreements, representations or understandings (whether written, oral or implied) between you and the Company. The terms of this Agreement and the resolution of any disputes as to the meaning,
effect, performance or validity of this Agreement or arising out of, related to, or in any way connected with, this Agreement, your employment with the Company or any other relationship between you and the Company (the “Disputes”) will be
governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, excluding laws relating to conflicts or choice of law. You and the Company submit to the exclusive personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in the State of New Jersey in
connection with any Dispute or any claim related to any Dispute. 
 17. Assignment: Neither you nor the Company may make any
assignment of this Agreement or any interest in it, by operation of law or otherwise, without the prior written 

 

 
  

 
consent of the other; provided, however, that the Company may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without your consent to one of its Affiliates or to any person with whom the
Company shall hereafter effect a reorganization, consolidate with, or merge into or to whom it transfers all or substantially all of its properties or assets. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon you and the Company, and
each of our respective successors, executors, administrators, heirs and permitted assigns. 
 We are excited about the opportunity to work
with you at Amarin. If you have any questions about this information, please do not hesitate to call. Otherwise, please confirm your acceptance of this offer of employment by signing below and returning a copy to me. We are confident that with your
