 Exhibit 10.10 

MARIADB PLC 
 EXECUTIVE
ANNUAL INCENTIVE PLAN 
 (Effective as of December 18, 2022) 

1. Purpose of the Plan. The MariaDB plc Executive Annual Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) is intended to
provide annual incentive compensation opportunities to executive officers and other senior officers or service providers of MariaDB plc (the “Company”) and its Related Companies who are selected to participate in the Plan
(each, an “Eligible Person”). The purpose of the Plan is to motivate and reward such Eligible Persons by making a portion of their compensation dependent on the achievement of certain performance goals related to the
performance of the Company and the Eligible Person. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in the Plan have the meanings set forth in Section 15. 

2. Administration. 

(a) The Committee will administer the Plan, except that the Chief Executive Officer of the Company or a Related Company (or an authorized
delegate) may administer the Plan with respect to Eligible Persons who are not Section 16 Officers and who are intended to be covered by the Plan (with references to the Committee in the Plan also intended to refer to the Chief Executive
Officer or an authorized delegate, as applicable, provided that only the Board or the Committee may take any action set forth in Section 14). 

(b) The Committee will have the authority, in its sole discretion, subject to and not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, to
exercise all the powers and authority either specifically granted to it under the Plan or as necessary or advisable to administer the Plan, including, without limitation, the authority (a) to grant Awards; (b) to determine the Eligible
Persons to whom and the time or times when such Awards will be granted; (c) to determine the terms, conditions, restrictions and performance criteria, including the Performance Goals, relating to an Award; (d) to determine whether and to
what extent the Performance Goals for an Award have been satisfied; (e) to construe and interpret the Plan and any Award; (f) to prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Plan; (g) to approve the Bonus Amounts
payable under Awards (which may be paid in cash or in Ordinary Shares and may be adjusted to reflect individual performance); and (h) to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. The
Committee’s decisions, determinations and interpretations will be final, conclusive and binding on all persons, including the Company, any Eligible Person, any Participant, and any other person. 

3. Eligibility and Participation. 

(a) The Committee will select the Eligible Persons eligible to participate in the Plan for each Performance Period (the
“Participants”), in consultation with Company management as appropriate; provided that such Participants are not covered by another Company incentive, bonus, commission or similar cash incentive plan. In selecting the
Eligible Persons to whom Awards will be granted and the Performance Goals for an Award, the Committee will take into account such factors as it deems relevant in connection with achieving the purpose of the Plan. 

(b) Awards will be communicated to Participants in such form as the Committee may from time to time deem advisable and the terms and
conditions of such Awards will be set forth therein. 

 (c) Subject to applicable law, Awards may be adjusted by the Committee, in its sole
discretion, as a result of changes in a Participant’s employment or service status during a Performance Period (e.g., due to a change in title or duties, a change to base salary or a change to hours of employment or service). An Award will be pro-rated in the event an Eligible Person first becomes a Participant during a Performance Period. 
 4.
Termination of Employment or Service. Unless otherwise required by applicable law or by the terms of an employment or service agreement, offer letter or severance policy that applies to a Participant, a Participant who ceases
employment or service with the Company or any Related Company for any reason prior to the date Bonus Amounts are paid under Awards for a Performance Period will not be eligible for and will not earn any Bonus Amount under an Award for that
Performance Period. In the case of death, Disability, or exceptional circumstances, deviations from eligibility for payment under the Plan may be approved by the Committee or the Head of Human Resources on a case-by-case basis, provided that any deviation with respect to a Section 16 Officer must be approved by the Committee. 

5. Awards Not Assignable. No Award, or any right thereto, is assignable or transferable by a Participant except by will or by
the applicable laws of descent and distribution. Any attempted assignment or alienation will be void and of no force or effect. 
 6.
No Trust or Fund. The Plan is intended to constitute an “unfunded” plan. Nothing contained herein will require the Company to segregate any monies or other property, or Ordinary Shares, or to create any trusts,
or to make any special deposits for any immediate or deferred amounts payable to any Participant. No Participant will have any rights that are greater than those of a general unsecured creditor of the Company. 

7. No Individual Rights. 

(a) No employee, service provider or any other individual will have any claim to be granted an Award under the Plan. Subject to applicable
law, the Company has no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants under the Plan. Participation in the Plan is entirely discretionary and does not create any contractual or other right to any benefit arising under the Plan or to future
participation in the Plan. 
 (b) Nothing in the Plan or any Award will be deemed to constitute an employment or other service contract or
confer or be deemed to confer on any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other service relationship with, the Company or any Related Company or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Related Company to
terminate a Participant’s employment or service relationship at any time, with or without cause. 
 8. Change of Control.
Upon a Change of Control prior to completion of a Performance Period, each then outstanding Award for such Performance Period will be cancelled and in respect of a cancelled Award, a Participant will be eligible to receive a pro rata portion of the
payment due under the Award, calculated by determining the achievement of the applicable Performance Goal or Performance Goals based on actual performance as of the end of the fiscal quarter immediately prior to such Change of Control, and then
multiplying this amount by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days completed in the Performance Period prior to the Change of Control and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period (the
“Pro Rata Change of Control Amount”). Such amount will be paid within 30 days following the Change of Control. 
 9.
Compliance with Legal Requirements. The Plan and the granting and payment of Awards, and the other obligations of the Company under the Plan, are subject to all applicable federal, state and foreign laws, rules and regulations, and to
such approvals by any regulatory or governmental agency as may be required. 

  
 -2- 

 10. Tax Withholding; Deferrals. Payments under Awards are subject to all
applicable federal, state, local and other applicable withholding tax requirements. 
 11.
Section 409A (for U.S. Taxpayers). Bonus Amounts, if any, paid under the Plan will be paid at the time or times determined by the Committee, provided that in no event will Bonus Amounts, if any, payable
following a Performance Period be paid later than the later of (i) the fifteenth day of the third month following the end of the first Company fiscal year in which the applicable Award is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture
(within the meaning of Section 409A), or (2) the fifteenth day of the third month following the end of the first calendar year in which the applicable Award is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of
Section 409A); and provided further, in all cases, Bonus Amounts, if any, paid under the Plan will be paid within 90 days following the end of the applicable Performance Period to which the Bonus Amount relates. It is intended that all Awards
and Bonus Amounts payable under the Plan will be exempt from the requirements of Section 409A pursuant to the “short-term deferral” exemption or, in the alternative, comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of
the payments and benefits to be provided under the Plan will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms herein will be interpreted to so comply or be exempt. Further, if and to the extent
necessary to avoid subjecting a Participant to additional taxation under Section 409A, payment to a Participant of all or a portion of any severance-related payment under the Plan, and any other severance payments to the Participant that are
deferred compensation for purposes of Section 409A, will be delayed until the date that is six months and one day following the Participant’s separation from service. Each payment and benefit payable under the Plan is intended to
constitute a separate and distinct payment for purposes of Section 409A. The Company may, in good faith and without the consent of any Participant, make any amendments to the Plan and take such reasonable actions as it deems necessary,
appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition under Section 409A prior to actual payment to the Participant. 

12. Choice of Law. The Plan, all Awards granted thereunder, and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto, to
the extent not otherwise governed by the laws of the United States, will be governed by the laws of Delaware without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. 

13. Recoupment. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary and to the maximum extent allowed by applicable
law, Bonus Amounts paid under the Plan are subject to (i) the requirements of the MariaDB plc Incentive Compensation Recovery Policy, as it may be amended from time to time, and any clawback provisions in a Participant’s terms of
employment or service (as applicable) and (ii) any other compensation recovery policies as may be adopted from time to time by the Company to comply with applicable law and/or stock exchange requirements, or otherwise, to the extent determined
by the Board or the Committee to be applicable to a Participant. No recovery of compensation under such a recovery policy or clawback provisions in a Participant’s terms of employment or service (as applicable) will be an event giving rise to a
right to voluntarily terminate employment or service upon a “resignation for good reason” or for a “constructive termination” or a similar term under any plan or agreement with the Company or a Related Company. 

14. Amendment and Termination. The Board or the Committee may from time to time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan in
whole or in part. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment (other than an amendment necessary to comply with Section 409A or other applicable law) or termination of the Plan may adversely affect any rights of a Participant under an
outstanding Award without the Participant’s consent.

 Exhibit 10.11 

MARIADB PLC 
 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR COMPENSATION PROGRAM 
 (Effective as of 18, 2022) 

This MariaDB plc Non-Employee Director Compensation Program (the “Program”)
sets forth the compensation payable to eligible members of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of MariaDB plc (the “Company”) as of the date set forth above (the “Effective
Date”). Each member of the Board who is not an officer or employee of the Company or any parent or subsidiary of the Company (an “Eligible Director”) is eligible to receive the compensation set forth in the
Program. All amounts set forth in the Program are in U.S. dollars. 
 1. Cash Compensation. Each Eligible Director is entitled
to receive the cash compensation set forth below. 
  

					
	 Annual Retainers (for the Fiscal Year)
	  	Amount (USD)	 
	 Board Member
	  	$	45,000	 
	 Chair of Committee:
	  			
	 Audit
	  	$	20,000	 
	 Compensation and Human Resources
	  	$	15,000	 
	 Governance and Sustainability
	  	$	10,000	 
	 Committee member:
	  			
	 Audit
	  	$	10,000	 
	 Compensation and Human Resources

	 Lead independent director
	  	$	20,000	 
	 Non-Employee Board Chair
	  	$	40,000	 

 The annual retainers for service as a chair of a committee or as a member of a committee are in addition to
the Board member annual retainer. A chair of a committee receives the chair annual retainer for the applicable committee, but does not also receive the committee member annual retainer. All cash compensation is paid in arrears in equal quarterly
installments as soon as practicable after the end of the fiscal quarter for which services were rendered. Eligible Directors who commence service mid-quarter or who terminate service mid-quarter will receive pro-rated retainers to be paid at the end of the applicable fiscal quarter. 

2. Equity Compensation. 

(a) Annual Awards. On the date of each annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders, each Eligible Director who is a
continuing director immediately following the annual meeting will automatically be granted an award of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) having a grant value of $175,000 (the “Grant Value”). The number
of RSUs granted will be calculating by dividing the Grant Value by the average closing price of the Company’s ordinary shares (“Ordinary Shares”) over the 20 trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding
the grant date, rounded down to the nearest whole share (the “Annual Award”). 

 (b) Initial Director Awards (Other than Initial Business Combination Awards).

 (i) Each individual who first becomes an Eligible Director after the Effective Date (other than an Eligible Director who receives an
Initial Business Combination Award, as defined below) will automatically receive on the date of such initial election or appointment to the Board (or, if such date is not a market trading day, on the first market trading day thereafter) both
(i) an award of RSUs having a Grant Value of $175,000 (the “Initial Director Award”) and (ii) the Annual Award, provided that if the Eligible Director is initially elected or appointed to the Board on a date other
than the date of an annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders, the $175,000 Grant Value of the Annual Award will be pro-rated, based on the number of full months between initial election or appointment
and, as applicable, (i) the anticipated date of the Company’s next annual meeting of shareholders, if scheduled (which will apply until clause (ii) can apply), or (ii) the date of the first anniversary of the Company’s prior
annual meeting of shareholders, if the next annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders is not yet scheduled (with full months calculated with reference to the day of applicable annual meeting of shareholders). 

(iii) The number of RSUs granted pursuant to the Initial Director Award and the Annual Award will be calculated by dividing the applicable
Grant Value by the average closing price of the Ordinary Shares for the 20 trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding the applicable grant date, rounded down to the nearest whole share. 

(iv) If an individual who was both a member of the Board and an employee of the Company or any of its subsidiaries terminates employment with
the Company and its subsidiaries and remains a member of the Board, such individual will not be eligible to receive an Initial Director Award or an Annual Award under this Section 2(b), but will become eligible to receive Annual Awards under
Section 2(a). 
 (c) Initial Business Combination Awards. Effective on the trading date immediately following the
effectiveness of an initial Form S-8 Registration Statement filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for the securities issuable under the Company’s 2022 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended
from time to time (the “Plan”), each Eligible Director initially appointed to the Board after completion of the transactions contemplated by the Business Combination Agreement dated January 31, 2022, by and between the
parties named therein, including the Company (the “Business Combination”), will automatically receive an Annual Award with a Grant Value of $175,000, such Grant Value to be pro-rated
based on the number of full months between completion of the Business Combination and the anticipated date of the 2023 annual meeting of shareholders; and provided, further, that the number of RSUs granted under this award will be calculated by
dividing the pro-rated Grant Value by the average closing price of the Ordinary Shares for the 60 trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding the grant date (or any lesser number of trading
days that have occurred as of the trading day immediately preceding such grant date), rounded down to the nearest whole share (the “Initial Business Combination Award”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Initial Business
Combination Awards are one-time awards to those Eligible Directors first appointed to the Board in connection with the completion of the Business Combination and who remain Eligible Directors on the effective
date of grant of the Initial Business Combination Awards. Initial Director Awards, Annual Awards and Initial Business Combination Awards are collectively referred to in the Program as “Awards.” 

(d) Vesting of Awards. 

(i) Each Annual Award and Initial Business Combination Award will fully vest upon the earlier of (i) the
one-year anniversary of the grant date and (ii) the day immediately prior to the Company’s annual meeting of shareholders that next occurs after the grant date. 

  
 -2- 

 (ii) Each Initial Director Award will vest as to
one-third of the total number of RSUs granted on the first anniversary of the grant date of the Initial Director Award and as to an additional one-third of the total
RSUs granted on each of the two subsequent anniversaries thereafter. 
 (iii) Vesting of Awards is subject to the Eligible Director’s
continued service as a director through the vesting date, except as otherwise provided herein. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in the Plan), Awards will become fully vested. 

(e) Termination of Service. In the event an Eligible Director’s service terminates due to death or Disability (as
defined in the Plan), outstanding Awards will become fully vested. In the event an Eligible Director’s service terminates for any other reason prior to the vesting date of an Award, the Award will automatically be forfeited upon such
termination. 
 (f) Other Terms. Awards will be granted under the Plan. All provisions of the Plan not inconsistent with the
Program will apply to the Awards, including the Plan’s annual limits on the amount of compensation payable to an Eligible Director. Notwithstanding anything to contrary in the Program, no Award will be granted to an Eligible Director until
prior to effectiveness of the initial Form S-8 Registration Statement filed for the shares issuable under the Plan. 

3. Expense Reimbursement. Eligible Directors will be reimbursed for reasonable travel and related expenses incurred in
connection with attending Board and committee meetings and in connection with other Board-related business or activities. 
 4.
Termination or Amendment. The Board may terminate or amend the Program at any time. Termination or amendment of the Program may not, without the written consent of an Eligible Director, impair or diminish any rights under an
outstanding Award or compensation already paid (other than an amendment necessary to comply with Section 409A of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 409A”)). 

5. Section 409A. The Company intends that payments to Eligible Directors who are U.S. taxpayers satisfy the conditions of
Section 409A as set forth in the Plan.
