Ordinary Shares

We have entered into a sales agreement (the “Sales Agreement”) with Cowen and Company, LLC (“TD Cowen”), dated December 7, 2023, relating to the sale of our ordinary shares, nominal value of €0.12 per share (the “Ordinary Shares”), offered by this prospectus. In accordance with the terms of the Sales Agreement, under this prospectus, we may offer and sell Ordinary Shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $150.0 million from time to time through TD Cowen acting as our agent.

The Ordinary Shares are listed on The Nasdaq Global Market under the symbol “NAMS.” On December 4, 2023, the last sale price of the Ordinary Shares as reported by The Nasdaq Global Market was $9.77 per share.

Sales of Ordinary Shares, if any, under this prospectus will be made in sales deemed to be “at the market offerings” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). TD Cowen is not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of securities, but will act as our sales agent using commercially reasonable efforts consistent with its normal trading and sales practices, on mutually agreed terms between TD Cowen and us. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in any escrow, trust or similar arrangement.

TD Cowen will be entitled to compensation at a fixed commission rate of up to 3.0% of the gross sales price of any Ordinary Shares sold under the Sales Agreement. In connection with the sale of Ordinary Shares on our behalf, TD Cowen will be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the compensation of TD Cowen will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have also agreed to provide indemnification to TD Cowen against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. See “Plan of Distribution” beginning on page S-27 for additional information regarding TD Cowen’s compensation.

Investing in the Ordinary Shares involves a high degree of risk. See the “Risk Factors” section beginning on page S-6 of this prospectus and under similar headings in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that are incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

Neither the SEC nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in the Ordinary Shares involves a high degree of risk. Before making a decision to invest in the Ordinary Shares, you should consider carefully the risks and uncertainties described under the heading “Risk Factors” contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus, including the risk factors listed below and the ones incorporated by reference herein from our Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 (“Annual Report”), filed with the SEC on March 31, 2023, as may be updated by our other filings we make with the SEC, including our subsequent annual reports. The risks described in these documents are not the only ones we face. There may be other unknown or unpredictable economic, business, competitive, regulatory or other factors that could harm our future results. Past financial performance may not be a reliable indicator of future performance, and historical trends should not be used to anticipate results or trends in future periods. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects or cash flow could be harmed. This could cause the trading price of the Ordinary Shares to decline, resulting in a loss of all or part of your investment. Please also read carefully the section below entitled “Special Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Risks Related to This Offering

You may experience immediate and substantial dilution in the book value of your investment.

If you purchase the Ordinary Shares in this offering, you will experience immediate dilution in an amount equal to the difference between the purchase price per share and our then-net tangible book value per Ordinary Share. Assuming that an aggregate of $150.0 million of the Ordinary Shares are sold at an assumed public offering price of $9.77 per share, which was the last reported sale price of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq on December 4, 2023, and after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, you would experience immediate dilution of $4.49 per share, representing the difference between the assumed public offering price and our as adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2023. See the section titled “Dilution” in this prospectus for more information.

The actual number of Ordinary Shares we will sell under the Sales Agreement and the resulting gross proceeds are uncertain.

Subject to certain limitations in the Sales Agreement and compliance with applicable law, we have the discretion to deliver a placement notice to TD Cowen at any time throughout the term of the Sales Agreement. The number of Ordinary Shares that are sold through TD Cowen after we deliver a placement notice will fluctuate based on the market price of the Ordinary Shares during the sales period and limits we set in the placement notice. Because the price per share sold will fluctuate based on the market price of the Ordinary Shares during the sales period, it is not possible to predict the number of Ordinary Shares that will be ultimately sold or the resulting gross proceeds.

The Ordinary Shares offered in this offering will be sold in “at the market offerings.” Investors who purchase the Ordinary Shares in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices.

Investors who purchase the Ordinary Shares in this offering at different times will likely pay different prices, and so may experience different outcomes in their investment results. We will have discretion, subject to market demand, to vary the timing, prices and numbers of Ordinary Shares sold, and subject to certain limitations in the Sales Agreement, there is no minimum or maximum sales price. Investors may experience a decline in the value of their Ordinary Shares and dilution as a result of sales made at prices lower than the prices they paid.

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this offering, and we may not use them effectively.

We currently intend to use the net proceeds from this offering as described in the section titled “Use of Proceeds” in this prospectus. However, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board of Directors”) and

S-6

management retain broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering and could spend the proceeds in ways that do not improve our results of operations or enhance the value of the Ordinary Shares. Our failure to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations, financial condition and prospects.

You may experience future dilution as a result of future equity offerings.

In order to raise additional capital, we expect to offer additional securities in the future, including securities convertible into or exchangeable for Ordinary Shares. We cannot assure you that we will be able to sell the Ordinary Shares or other securities in any other offering at a price per share that is equal to or greater than the price per share paid by investors in this offering, and investors purchasing Ordinary Shares or other securities in the future could have rights superior to existing shareholders. The price per share at which we sell additional Ordinary Shares or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for the Ordinary Shares in future transactions may be higher or lower than the price per share in this offering.

Future sales or issuances of Ordinary Shares in the public markets, or the perception of such sales, could depress the trading price of the Ordinary Shares.

The sale of a substantial number of Ordinary Shares or other equity-related securities in the public markets, or the perception that such sales could occur, could depress the market price of the Ordinary Shares and impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. We may sell large quantities of Ordinary Shares at any time pursuant to this prospectus or in one or more separate offerings. We cannot predict the effect that future sales of Ordinary Shares or other equity-related securities would have on the market price of the Ordinary Shares.

The price of the Ordinary Shares is and may continue to be volatile and you may not be able to resell our securities at or above the price you paid.

The market price for the Ordinary Shares is volatile and may fluctuate significantly in response to a number of factors, most of which we cannot control, such as fluctuations in financial results, our ability to advance the development of obicetrapib or changes in securities analysts’ recommendations. In addition, the Ordinary Shares have been and may continue to be affected by limited trading volume. Each of these factors, among others, could harm your investment in the Ordinary Shares and could result in you being unable to resell the shares that you purchased at a price equal to or above the price you paid.

The unaudited pro forma financial data included in this prospectus are based on certain assumptions included therein actual results may vary.

The unaudited pro forma financial information included in this prospectus is presented on a narrative basis and for illustrative purposes only, is based on certain assumptions, address a hypothetical situation and reflect historical financial data. Therefore, the unaudited pro forma financial information is not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have been achieved had the Business Combination been consummated on the dates indicated therein, or our future consolidated results of operations.

SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements provide the Company’s current expectations or forecasts of future events. Forward-looking statements include statements about the Company’s expectations, beliefs, plans, objectives, intentions, assumptions and other statements that are not historical facts. Words or phrases such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will” and “would,” or similar words or phrases, or the negatives of those words or phrases, may identify forward-looking statements, but the absence of these words does not necessarily mean that a statement is not forward-looking. Examples of forward-looking statements in this prospectus and the documents incorporated herein include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s disclosure concerning its operations, cash flows and financial position.

Forward-looking statements in this prospectus and in any document incorporated by reference in this prospectus may include, for example, statements about:

S-8

Forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties and actual results could differ materially from those expected or implied by the forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in forward-looking statements for many reasons, including the risk factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this prospectus and under similar headings in the other documents that are incorporated by reference herein. Accordingly, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they were made. The Company believes that it had a reasonable basis for these statements at the time such statements were made. However, the information that the Company relied upon to form this reasonable basis may be limited or incomplete. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly revise any forward-looking statement to reflect circumstances or events after the date of this prospectus or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events, except as required by law.

S-9

USE OF PROCEEDS

We may offer and sell Ordinary Shares having an aggregate offering price of up to $150.0 million from time to time through TD Cowen. Because there is no minimum offering amount required as a condition to close this offering, the actual total public offering amount, commissions and proceeds to us, if any, are not determinable at this time.

We currently intend to use the net proceeds from this offering, if any, together with our cash and cash equivalents, primarily to fund the continued development of obicetrapib, and for working capital, capital expenditures and general corporate purposes. We may also use a portion of the net proceeds to acquire or invest in new product candidates or a variety of types of collaboration, license, monetization, distribution and other arrangements with other third parties relating to the development or commercialization, once approved, of obicetrapib or future product candidates or indications; however, we have no current plans, commitments or obligations to do so. Our expected use of the net proceeds from this offering represents our current intentions based on our present plans and business condition, which could change as our plans and business conditions evolve. The amounts and timing of our actual use of the net proceeds from this offering will vary depending on numerous factors, including our ability or desire to sell Ordinary Shares under the Sales Agreement. As a result, we cannot predict with certainty all of the particular uses for any net proceeds to be received or the amounts that we will actually spend on the uses set forth above. The Board of Directors and our management retain broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds from this offering.

Pending these uses, we intend to invest the net proceeds in short- and intermediate-term interest-bearing financial instruments.

CAPITALIZATION

The following table sets forth the capitalization of the Company as of June 30, 2023:

Our capitalization will differ depending on the actual public offering price and actual number of Ordinary Shares sold, including the amount by which actual offering expenses are higher or lower than estimated. The information in this table should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto and other financial information incorporated by reference into this prospectus and any prospectus supplement, including the information under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Exhibit 99.2 of our Form 6-K filed August 7, 2023. Our historical results do not necessarily indicate our expected results for any future periods.

The information in the table above is based on 82,324,331 Ordinary Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and excludes the impact of:

In addition, unless we specifically state otherwise, all information in this prospectus assumes no exercise of outstanding options to purchase Ordinary Shares subsequent to June 30, 2023.

S-11

DIVIDEND POLICY

We have never declared or paid any cash dividends on the Ordinary Shares. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and do not anticipate paying any dividends on the Ordinary Shares in the foreseeable future. The Board of Directors may only pay dividends and other distributions from our reserves to the extent our shareholders’ equity (eigen vermogen) exceeds the sum of our paid-in and called-up share capital plus the reserves it must maintain under Dutch law or the Articles of Association and (if it concerns a distribution of profits) after adoption of our statutory annual accounts by a general meeting of our shareholders (a “General Meeting”) from which it appears that such dividend distribution is allowed. Subject to those restrictions, any future determination to pay dividends or other distributions from our reserves will be at the discretion of the Board of Directors and will depend upon a number of factors, including our results of operations and prospects, financial condition, future prospects, contractual restrictions, restrictions imposed by applicable law and other factors the Board of Directors deems relevant.

Under the Articles of Association, the Board of Directors may decide that all or part of the profits shown in our adopted statutory annual accounts will be added to our reserves. After reservation of any such profits, any remaining profits will be at the disposal of the General Meeting at the proposal of the Board of Directors for distribution on Ordinary Shares, subject to applicable restrictions of Dutch law. The Board of Directors is permitted, subject to certain requirements and applicable restrictions of Dutch law, to declare interim dividends without the approval of the General Meeting. Dividends and other distributions will be made payable no later than a date determined by the Company. Claims to dividends and other distributions not made within five years from the date that such dividends or distributions became payable will lapse and any such amounts will be considered to have been forfeited to us (verjaring).

S-12

DILUTION

If you invest in the Ordinary Shares offered hereby, your ownership interest will be diluted immediately to the extent of the difference between the price you pay in this offering and the net tangible book value per Ordinary Share after this offering.

Net tangible book value per Ordinary Share represents the amount of our total assets less our total liabilities, excluding intangible assets, divided by the number of the Ordinary Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2023, we had a historical net tangible book value of €340.6 million ($370.1 million), corresponding to a net tangible book value per Ordinary Share of €4.14 ($4.50).

After giving effect to the assumed sale by us of $150.0 million of Ordinary Shares at an assumed public offering price of $9.77 per share, which was the last reported sale price of the Ordinary Shares on Nasdaq on December 4, 2023, and after deducting estimated commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us, our as adjusted net tangible book value as of June 30, 2023 would have been €474.4 million ($515.5 million), corresponding to a net tangible book value per Ordinary Share of €4.86 ($5.28). This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of €0.72 ($0.78) per Ordinary Share to existing shareholders and immediate dilution of $4.49 per Ordinary Share to new investors purchasing Ordinary Shares in this offering. Dilution per Ordinary Share to new investors is determined by subtracting our as adjusted net tangible book value per Ordinary Share from the assumed public offering price per Ordinary Share paid by new investors.

The following table illustrates this dilution on a per-Ordinary Share basis. The as adjusted information is illustrative only and will change based on the actual price to the public, the actual number of Ordinary Shares sold and other terms of the offering determined at the time Ordinary Shares are sold pursuant to this prospectus. The Ordinary Shares sold in this offering, if any, will be sold from time to time at various prices. The Euro amounts in this section were translated solely for convenience to U.S. dollars at a rate of €1.00 to $1.0866, the exchange rate reported as of June 30, 2023 by the European Central Bank.

The Ordinary Shares sold in this offering, if any, will be sold from time to time at various prices. Assuming all of the Ordinary Shares in an aggregate amount of $150.0 million are sold in this offering at the assumed public offering price of $9.77 per share, a $1.00 increase in such offering price would increase our as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering to $5.36 per share and dilution to new investors to $5.41 per share, after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. A $1.00 decrease in the assumed public offering price of $9.77 per share would decrease our as adjusted net tangible book value per share after this offering to $5.18 per share and dilution to new investors to $3.59 per share, after deducting commissions and estimated offering expenses payable by us. The information discussed above is illustrative only and will adjust based on the actual public offering price, the actual number of shares that we offer in this offering, and other terms of this offering determined at the time of each offer and sale.

The above discussion and table are based on based on 82,324,331 Ordinary Shares outstanding as of June 30, 2023 and excludes in each case as of June 30, 2023:

S-13

In addition, unless we specifically state otherwise, all information in this prospectus assumes no exercise of outstanding options to purchase Ordinary Shares subsequent to June 30, 2023.

S-14

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following is a description of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations to the U.S. Holders (as defined below) of owning and disposing of the Ordinary Shares. It is not a comprehensive description of all tax considerations that may be relevant to a particular person’s decision to acquire Ordinary Shares. This discussion applies only to a U.S. Holder that is an initial purchaser of the Ordinary Shares offered pursuant to this prospectus and that holds the Ordinary Shares as a capital asset for tax purposes (generally, property held for investment). In addition, this discussion does not describe all of the tax consequences that may be relevant in light of a U.S. Holder’s particular circumstances, including state and local tax consequences, estate tax consequences, alternative minimum tax consequences, the potential application of the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income, application of the special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the Code and tax consequences applicable to U.S. Holders subject to special rules, such as:

If an entity that is classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds the Ordinary Shares, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. Partnerships holding the Ordinary Shares and partners in such partnerships are encouraged to consult their tax advisors as to the particular U.S. federal income tax consequences of holding and disposing of the Ordinary Shares.

The discussion is based on the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions, final, temporary and proposed U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “Treasury Department”) regulations promulgated under the Code (the “Treasury Regulations”), and the income treaty between the Netherlands and the United States, all as of the date hereof, changes to any of which may affect the tax consequences described herein—possibly with retroactive effect.

S-15

A “U.S. Holder” is a holder who, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, is a beneficial owner of the Ordinary Shares and is:

PERSONS CONSIDERING AN INVESTMENT IN THE ORDINARY SHARES SHOULD CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AS TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES APPLICABLE TO THEM RELATING TO THE ACQUISITION, OWNERSHIP AND DISPOSITION OF THE ORDINARY SHARES, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY OF U.S. FEDERAL, STATE AND LOCAL TAX LAWS.

Consequences of Ownership and Disposition of the Ordinary Shares to U.S. Holders—Application of Passive Foreign Investment Company Rules to U.S. Holders of Ordinary Shares

Based on current estimates of the composition of the income and assets of the Company and its subsidiaries for the taxable year ended December 31, 2023, we do not believe that the Company will be treated as a passive foreign investment company (“PFIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes for the 2023 taxable year. However, we have not yet determined whether we expect to be a PFIC for the current taxable year or any future taxable years. A non-U.S. corporation will be classified as a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes if either (i) at least 75% of its gross income in a taxable year, including its pro rata share of the gross income of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, is passive income or (ii) at least 50% of its assets in a taxable year (ordinarily determined based on fair market value and averaged quarterly over the year), including its pro rata share of the assets of any corporation in which it is considered to own at least 25% of the shares by value, are held for the production of, or produce, passive income. Passive income generally includes dividends, interest, rents and royalties (other than rents or royalties derived in the active conduct of a trade or business) and gains from the disposition of passive assets. A separate determination must be made after the close of each taxable year as to whether a foreign corporation was a PFIC for that year. Once a foreign corporation is treated as a PFIC it is, with respect to a shareholder during the time it qualifies as a PFIC, and subject to certain exceptions, always treated as a PFIC with respect to such shareholder, regardless of whether it satisfied either of the qualification tests in subsequent years.

There are three separate taxation regimes that could apply to a U.S. Holder of Ordinary Shares under the PFIC rules, which are (i) the excess distribution regime (which is the default regime), (ii) the QEF regime, and (iii) the mark-to-market regime (each discussed below). A U.S. Holder who holds (actually or constructively) shares in a foreign corporation during any year in which such corporation qualifies as a PFIC is subject to U.S. federal income taxation under one of these three regimes. The effect of the PFIC rules on a U.S. Holder will depend upon which of these regimes applies to such U.S. Holder. Moreover, dividends paid by a PFIC are not eligible for the lower rates of taxation applicable to qualified dividend income (“QDI”) under any of the foregoing regimes.

Excess Distribution Regime

A U.S. Holder that does not make a QEF election or a mark-to-market election, both as described below, will be subject to the default “excess distribution regime” under the PFIC rules with respect to (i) any gain realized on a sale or other disposition (including a pledge) of Ordinary Shares, and (ii) any “excess distribution” received on the U.S. Holder’s Ordinary Shares (generally, any distributions in excess of 125% of the average of the annual distributions on Ordinary Shares during the preceding three years or the U.S. Holder’s holding period, whichever is shorter).

S-16

Generally, under this excess distribution regime: the gain or excess distribution will be allocated ratably over the period during which the U.S. Holder held the Ordinary Shares; the amount allocated to the current taxable year, will be treated as ordinary income; and the amount allocated to prior taxable years will be subject to the highest tax rate in effect for that taxable year and the interest charge generally applicable to underpayments of tax will be imposed on the resulting tax attributable to each such year.

The tax liability for amounts allocated to years prior to the year of disposition or excess distribution will be payable generally without regard to offsets from deductions, losses and expenses. In addition, gains (but not losses) a U.S. Holder realizes on the sale of Ordinary Shares cannot be treated as capital gains, even if the U.S. Holder holds the shares as capital assets. Further, no portion of any distribution will be treated as QDI.

QEF Regime

A QEF election is effective for the taxable year for which the election is made and all subsequent taxable years and may not be revoked without the consent of the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”). If a U.S. Holder makes a timely QEF election with respect to its direct or indirect interest in a PFIC, the U.S. Holder will be required to include in income each year a portion of the ordinary earnings and net capital gains of the PFIC as QEF income inclusions, even if amount is not distributed to the U.S. Holder. Thus, the U.S. Holder may be required to report taxable income as a result of QEF income inclusions without corresponding receipts of cash. U.S. Holders of Ordinary Shares should not expect that they will receive cash distributions from the Company sufficient to cover their respective U.S. tax liability with respect to such QEF income inclusions.

The timely QEF election also allows the electing U.S. Holder to: (i) generally treat any gain recognized on the disposition of its shares of the PFIC as a capital gain; (ii) treat its share of the PFIC’s net capital gain, if any, as long-term capital gain instead of ordinary income; and (iii) either avoid interest charges resulting from PFIC status altogether, or make an annual election, subject to certain limitations, to defer payment of current taxes on its share of PFIC’s annual realized net capital gain and ordinary earnings subject, however, to an interest charge on the deferred tax computed by using the statutory rate of interest applicable to an extension of time for payment of tax. In addition, net losses (if any) of a PFIC will not pass through to an electing U.S. Holder and may not be carried back or forward in computing such PFIC’s ordinary earnings and net capital gain in other taxable years. Consequently, a U.S. Holder may over time be taxed on amounts that as an economic matter exceed the Company’s net profits, if any.

A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in Ordinary Shares will be increased to reflect QEF income inclusions and will be decreased to reflect distributions of amounts previously included in income as QEF income inclusions. No portion of the QEF income inclusions attributable to ordinary income will be treated as QDI. Amounts included as QEF income inclusions with respect to direct and indirect investments generally will not be taxed again when distributed. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors as to the manner in which QEF income inclusions affect their allocable share of the Company’s income and their basis in their Ordinary Shares.

The Company intends to determine its PFIC status at the end of each taxable year and intends to satisfy any applicable record keeping and reporting requirements that apply to a QEF, including providing to U.S. Holders, for each taxable year that it determines it is or, in its reasonable determination, may be a PFIC, a PFIC Annual Information Statement containing information necessary for U.S. Holders to make a QEF Election with respect to the Company. The Company will provide such information electronically.

Notwithstanding such QEF election, the adverse tax consequences relating to PFIC shares, adjusted to take into account the current income inclusions resulting from the QEF election, will continue to apply with respect to such newly acquired Ordinary Shares, unless the U.S. Holder makes a purging election under the PFIC rules. Under one type of purging election, the U.S. Holder will be deemed to have sold such shares at their fair market value and any gain recognized on such deemed sale will be treated as an excess distribution, as described above.

S-17

Mark-to-Market Regime

Alternatively, a U.S. Holder may make an election to mark marketable shares in a PFIC to market on an annual basis. A PFIC’s ordinary shares generally are marketable if: (i) they are “regularly traded” on a national securities exchange that is registered with the SEC or on the national market system established under Section 11A of the Exchange Act; or (ii) they are “regularly traded” on any exchange or market that the Treasury Department determines to have rules sufficient to ensure that the market price accurately represents the fair market value of the shares.

For these purposes, the Ordinary Shares will be considered regularly traded during any calendar year during which they are traded, other than in de minimis quantities, on at least 15 days during each calendar quarter, on a qualified exchange. Any trades that have as their principal purpose meeting this requirement will be disregarded. The Ordinary Shares are listed on Nasdaq, which is a qualified exchange for these purposes. Consequently, if the Ordinary Shares remain listed on Nasdaq and are regularly traded, and you are a U.S. Holder of such shares, we expect the mark-to-market election would be available to you if we are a classified as a PFIC. Each U.S. Holder should consult its tax advisor as to the whether a mark-to-market election is available or advisable with respect to the Ordinary Shares.

A U.S. Holder that makes a mark-to-market election must include in ordinary income for each year an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the Ordinary Shares at the close of the taxable year over the U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Ordinary Shares. An electing holder may also claim an ordinary loss deduction for the excess, if any, of the U.S. Holder’s adjusted basis in the Ordinary Shares over the fair market value of the Ordinary Shares at the close of the taxable year, but this deduction is allowable only to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains for prior years. Gains from an actual sale or other disposition of the Ordinary Shares will be treated as ordinary income, and any losses incurred on a sale or other disposition of the Ordinary Shares will be treated as an ordinary loss to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains for prior years. Once made, the election cannot be revoked without the consent of the IRS, unless the securities cease to be marketable.

However, a mark-to-market election generally cannot be made for equity interests in any lower-tier PFICs that we own, unless shares of such lower-tier PFIC are themselves “marketable.” As a result, even if a U.S. Holder validly makes a mark-to-market election with respect to the Ordinary Shares, the U.S. Holder may continue to be subject to the PFIC rules (described above) with respect to its indirect interest in any of our investments that are treated as an equity interest in a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors to determine whether any of these elections would be available and if so, what the consequences of the alternative treatments would be in their particular circumstances.

Unless otherwise provided by the IRS, each U.S. shareholder of a PFIC is required to file an annual report on IRS Form 8621. A U.S. Holder’s failure to file the annual report will cause the statute of limitations for such U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax return to remain open with regard to the items required to be included in such report until three years after the U.S. Holder files the annual report, and, unless such failure is due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect, the statute of limitations for the U.S. Holder’s entire U.S. federal income tax return will remain open during such period. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing such information returns under these rules.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of Ownership and Disposition of Ordinary Shares to U.S. Holders if the Company is not a PFIC

Distributions on Ordinary Shares

The treatment of U.S. Holders of Ordinary Shares will be materially different from that described above if the Company is not treated as a PFIC for the taxable year. If the Company is not treated as a PFIC for the taxable year, the gross amount of any distribution on Ordinary Shares generally will be taxable to a U.S. Holder as ordinary dividend income on the date such distribution is actually or constructively received, to the extent that the distribution is paid out of the Company’s current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles). Because the Company does not maintain, nor is it required to maintain, calculations of its earnings and profits under U.S. federal income tax principles, it is currently expected that any distributions generally will be reported to U.S. Holders as dividends. Any such dividends generally will not be eligible for the dividends received deduction allowed to corporations in respect of dividends received from other U.S. corporations.

With respect to non-corporate U.S. Holders, dividends will be taxed at the preferential long-term capital gains rate (see “—Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Ordinary Shares” below), provided the applicable holding period is met, if Ordinary Shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States (which they will be if the Ordinary Shares continue to be traded on Nasdaq) and certain other requirements are met. There can be no assurance that Ordinary Shares will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in all future years. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the potential availability of the lower rate for any dividends paid with respect to Ordinary Shares.

A U.S. Holder must include any Dutch tax withheld from the dividend payment in the gross amount of the dividend even if the holder does not in fact receive it. The dividend is taxable to the holder when the holder receives the dividend, actually or constructively. The amount of the dividend distribution includible in a U.S. Holder’s income will be the U.S. dollar value of the Euro payments made, determined at the spot Euro/U.S. dollar rate on the date the dividend distribution is includible in income, regardless of whether the payment is in fact converted into U.S. dollars. Generally, any gain or loss resulting from currency exchange fluctuations during the period from the date the dividend payment is included in income to the date the payment is converted into U.S. dollars will be treated as ordinary income or loss and will not be eligible for the special tax rate applicable to qualified dividend income. Such gain or loss generally will be income or loss from sources within the United States for foreign tax credit limitation purposes.

The amount of the dividend will be treated as foreign-source dividend income to U.S. Holders and will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally available to US. Corporates under the Code. Dividends that the Company distributes generally should constitute “passive category income,” or, in the case of certain U.S. Holders, “general category income” for foreign tax credit limitation purposes. The rules relating to the determination of the foreign tax credit limitation are complex, and U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisor to determine whether and to what extent they will be entitled to a credit for Dutch withholding taxes imposed in respect of any dividend the Company distributes.

Sale or Other Taxable Disposition of Ordinary Shares

If the Company is not treated as a PFIC for the taxable year, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize gain or loss on any sale, exchange, redemption (subject to the discussion below) or other taxable disposition of Ordinary Shares in an amount equal to the difference between (i) the amount realized on the disposition and (ii) such U.S. Holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Ordinary Shares. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. Holder on a taxable disposition of Ordinary Shares generally will be capital gain or loss and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the holder’s holding period in such shares exceeds one year at the time of the disposition. Preferential tax rates may apply to long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. Holders (including individuals). The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

S-19

If the consideration received by a U.S. Holder is in the form of currency other than U.S. dollars, the amount realized will be the U.S. dollar value of the payment received determined by reference to the spot rate of exchange on the date of the sale or other disposition. However, if the securities disposed of in the transaction are treated as traded on an “established securities market” and you are either a cash basis taxpayer or an accrual basis taxpayer that has made a special election (which must be applied consistently from year to year and cannot be changed without the consent of the IRS), you will determine the U.S. dollar value of the amount realized in a non-U.S. dollar currency by translating the amount received at the spot rate of exchange on the settlement date of the sale. If you are an accrual basis taxpayer that is not eligible to or does not elect to determine the amount realized using the spot rate on the settlement date, you will recognize foreign currency gain or loss to the extent of any difference between the U.S. dollar amount realized on the date of sale or disposition and the U.S. dollar value of the currency received at the spot rate on the settlement date. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences if foreign taxes are imposed on a taxable disposition of ordinary shares and their ability to credit such foreign tax against their U.S. federal income tax liability.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Payments of dividends and sales proceeds that are made within the United States or through certain U.S.-related financial intermediaries generally are subject to information reporting, and may be subject to backup withholding, unless (i) the U.S. Holder is a corporation or other exempt recipient or (ii) in the case of backup withholding, the U.S. Holder provides a correct taxpayer identification number and certifies that it is not subject to backup withholding on a duly executed IRS Form W-9 or otherwise establishes an exemption.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. The amount of any backup withholding from a payment to a U.S. Holder may be allowed as a credit against the U.S. Holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability and may entitle the U.S. Holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Information with Respect to Foreign Financial Assets

Certain U.S. Holders who are individuals (and, under regulations, certain entities) may be required to report information relating to the Ordinary Shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for securities held in accounts maintained by certain U.S. financial institutions), by filing IRS Form 8938 (Statement of Specified Foreign Financial Assets) with their federal income tax return. A U.S. Holder will not be required to file IRS Form 8938 if the holder timely files IRS Form 8621. Such U.S. Holders who fail to timely furnish the required information may be subject to a penalty. Additionally, if a U.S. Holder does not file the required information, the statute of limitations with respect to tax returns of the U.S. Holder to which the information relates may not close until three years after such information is filed. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors regarding their reporting obligations with respect to their ownership and disposition of the securities.

U.S. Treasury Regulations meant to require the reporting of certain tax shelter transactions could be interpreted to cover transactions generally not regarded as tax shelters, including certain foreign currency transactions. Under the applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations, certain transactions are required to be reported to the IRS including, in certain circumstances, a sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition of foreign currency, to the extent that such sale, exchange, retirement or other taxable disposition results in a tax loss in excess of a threshold amount. U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors to determine the tax return obligations, if any, with respect to our securities, and the receipt of Euro in respect thereof, including any requirement to file IRS Form 8886 (Reportable Transaction Disclosure Statement).

MATERIAL DUTCH TAX CONSIDERATIONS

Taxation in the Netherlands

This section only outlines material Dutch tax consequences of the acquisition, holding and disposal of the Ordinary Shares. This section does not purport to describe all possible tax considerations or consequences that may be relevant to a holder or prospective holder of Ordinary Shares and does not purport to deal with the tax consequences applicable to all categories of investors, some of which (such as trusts or similar arrangements) may be subject to special rules. In view of its general nature, this section should be treated with corresponding caution.

This section is based on the tax laws of the Netherlands, published regulations thereunder and published authoritative case law, all as in effect on the date hereof, including, for the avoidance of doubt, the tax rates applicable on the date hereof, and all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. Any such change may invalidate the contents of this section, which will not be updated to reflect such change. Where this section refers to “the Netherlands” or “Dutch” it refers only to the part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands located in Europe.

This section is intended as general information only and is not Dutch tax advice or a complete description of all Dutch tax consequences relating to the acquisition, holding and disposal of the Ordinary Shares. Holders or prospective holders of Ordinary Shares should consult their own tax advisor regarding the Dutch tax consequences relating to the acquisition, holding and disposal of Ordinary Shares.

Please note that this section does not describe the Dutch tax consequences for:

i. a holder of Ordinary Shares if such holder has a substantial interest (aanmerkelijk belang) or deemed substantial interest (fictief aanmerkelijk belang) in us under the Dutch Income Tax Act 2001 (Wet inkomstenbelasting 2001). Generally, a holder is considered to hold a substantial interest in us, if such holder alone or, in the case of an individual, together with such holder’s partner for Dutch income tax purposes, or any relatives by blood or marriage in the direct line (including foster children), directly or indirectly, holds (i) an interest of 5% or more of the total issued and outstanding capital of the Company or of 5% or more of the issued and outstanding capital of a certain class of shares; or (ii) rights to acquire, directly or indirectly, such interest; or (iii) certain profit sharing rights that relate to 5% or more of the Company’s annual profits or to 5% or more of the Company’s liquidation proceeds. A deemed substantial interest may arise if a substantial interest (or part thereof) in has been disposed of, or is deemed to have been disposed of, on a non-recognition basis;

ii. a holder of Ordinary Shares if the Ordinary Shares held by such holder qualify or qualified as a participation (deelneming) for purposes of the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act 1969 (Wet op de vennootschapsbelasting 1969). Generally, a holder’s shareholding of, or right to acquire, 5% or more in the Company’s nominal paid-up share capital qualifies as a participation. A holder may also have a participation if (a) such holder does not have a shareholding of 5% or more but a related entity (statutorily defined term) has a participation or (b) the Company is a related entity (statutorily defined term);

iii. a holder of Ordinary Shares which is or who is entitled or required to apply the dividend withholding tax exemption (inhoudingsvrijstelling) with respect to any income (opbrengst) derived from the Ordinary Shares (as defined in Article 4 of the Dutch Dividend Withholding Tax Act 1965 (Wet op de dividendbelasting)). Generally, a holder of Ordinary Shares may be entitled or required to apply, subject to certain other requirements, the dividend withholding tax exemption if it is an entity and holds an interest of 5% or more in the Company’s nominal paid-up share capital;

iv. pension funds, investment institutions (fiscale beleggingsinstellingen) and tax exempt investment institutions (vrijgestelde beleggingsinstellingen) (each as defined in the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act 1969)

S-21

and other entities that are, in whole or in part, not subject to or exempt from Dutch corporate income tax, entities that have a function comparable to an investment institution or a tax exempt investment institution, as well as entities that are exempt from corporate income tax in their country of residence, such country of residence being another state of the European Union, Norway, Liechtenstein, Iceland or any other state with which the Netherlands has agreed to exchange information in line with international standards;

v. a holder of Ordinary Shares if such holder is an individual for whom the Ordinary Shares or any benefit derived from the Ordinary Shares is a remuneration or deemed to be a remuneration for (employment) activities performed by such holder or certain individuals related to such holder (as defined in the Dutch Income Tax Act 2001); and

vi. a holder of options for Ordinary Shares; and

vii a holder of options or any other awards granted under the Company’s Long-Term Incentive Plan.

Dividend withholding tax

Dividends distributed by the Company are generally subject to Dutch dividend withholding tax at a rate of 15%. Generally, the Company is responsible for the withholding of such dividend withholding tax at source; the Dutch dividend withholding tax is for the account of the holder of Ordinary Shares.

The expression “dividends distributed” includes, but is not limited to:

i. distributions in cash or in kind, deemed and constructive distributions and repayments of paid-in capital not recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes;

ii. liquidation proceeds, proceeds from the redemption of Ordinary Shares, or proceeds from the repurchase of Ordinary Shares (other than as temporary portfolio investment; tijdelijke belegging) by the Company or one of our subsidiaries or other affiliated entities, in each case to the extent such proceeds exceed the average paid-in capital of those Ordinary Shares as recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes;

iii. an amount equal to the nominal value of the Ordinary Shares issued or an increase of the nominal value of the Ordinary Shares, to the extent that no related contribution, recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes, has been made or will be made; and

iv. partial repayment of the paid-in capital recognized for Dutch dividend withholding tax purposes, if and to the extent that the Company has “net profits” (zuivere winst), unless:

Corporate legal entities that are resident or deemed to be resident of the Netherlands for Dutch corporate income tax purposes (“Dutch Resident Entities”) generally are entitled to an exemption from, or a credit for, any Dutch dividend withholding tax against their Dutch corporate income tax liability. The credit in any given year is, however, limited to the amount of Dutch corporate income tax payable in respect of the relevant year with an indefinite carry forward of any excess amount. Individuals who are resident or deemed to be resident of the Netherlands for Dutch personal income tax purposes (“Dutch Resident Individuals”) generally are entitled to a credit for any Dutch dividend withholding tax against their Dutch personal income tax liability and to a refund of any residual Dutch dividend withholding tax. The above generally also applies to holders of Ordinary Shares that are neither resident nor deemed to be resident of the Netherlands (“Non-Resident Holders”) if the Ordinary Shares are attributable to a Dutch permanent establishment of such Non-Resident Holder.

S-22

A holder of Ordinary Shares resident of a country other than the Netherlands may, depending on such holder’s specific circumstances, be entitled to exemptions from, reduction of, or full or partial refund of, Dutch dividend withholding tax under Dutch domestic tax law, EU law, or treaties for the avoidance of double taxation in effect between the Netherlands and such other country.

Dividend stripping

According to Dutch domestic anti-dividend stripping rules, no credit against Dutch tax, exemption from, reduction, or refund of Dutch dividend withholding tax will be granted if the recipient of the dividends paid by the Company is not considered the beneficial owner (uiteindelijk gerechtigde; as described in the Dutch Dividend Withholding Tax Act 1965) of those dividends. This legislation generally targets situations in which a shareholder retains its economic interest in shares but reduces the withholding tax costs on dividends by a transaction with another party that receives the dividends while that other party is entitled to a credit against Dutch tax, exemption from, reduction, or refund of Dutch dividend withholding tax that is more beneficial than that of the shareholder. It is not required for these rules to apply that the recipient of the dividends is aware that a dividend stripping transaction took place. The Dutch State Secretary of Finance takes the position that the definition of beneficial ownership introduced by this legislation will also be applied in the context of a treaty for the avoidance of double taxation.

Conditional withholding tax on dividends (as of January 1, 2024)

As of January 1, 2024, a Dutch conditional withholding tax will be imposed on dividends distributed by the Company to entities related (gelieerd) to us (within the meaning of the Dutch Withholding Tax Act 2021; Wet bronbelasting 2021), if such related entity:

i. is considered to be resident (gevestigd) in a jurisdiction that is listed in the yearly updated Dutch Regulation on low-taxing states and non-cooperative jurisdictions for tax purposes (Regeling laagbelastende staten en niet-coöperatieve rechtsgebieden voor belastingdoeleinden) (a “Listed Jurisdiction”); or

ii. has a permanent establishment located in a Listed Jurisdiction to which the Ordinary Shares are attributable; or

iii. holds the Ordinary Shares with the main purpose or one of the main purposes of avoiding taxation for another person or entity and there is an artificial arrangement or transaction or a series of artificial arrangements or transactions; or

iv. is not considered to be the beneficial owner of the Ordinary Shares in its jurisdiction of residence because such jurisdiction treats another entity as the beneficial owner of the Ordinary Shares (a hybrid mismatch); or

v. is not resident in any jurisdiction (also a hybrid mismatch); or

vi. is a reverse hybrid (within the meaning of Article 2(12) of the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act 1969), if and to the extent (a) there is a participant in the reverse hybrid which is related (gelieerd) to the reverse hybrid, (b) the jurisdiction of residence of such participant treats the reverse hybrid as transparent for tax purposes and (c) such participant would have been subject to the Dutch conditional withholding tax in respect of dividends distributed by the Company without the interposition of the reverse hybrid,

all within the meaning of the Dutch Withholding Tax Act 2021.

The Dutch conditional withholding tax on dividends will be imposed at the highest Dutch corporate income tax rate in effect at the time of the distribution (2023: 25.8%). The Dutch conditional withholding tax on

S-23

dividends will be reduced, but not below zero, by any regular Dutch dividend withholding tax withheld in respect of the same dividend distribution. As such, based on the currently applicable rates, the overall effective withholding tax rate, taking into account the regular Dutch dividend withholding tax (as described above) and the Dutch conditional withholding tax on dividends, will not exceed the highest corporate income tax rate in effect at the time of the distribution (2023: 25.8%).

Taxes on income and capital gains

Dutch Resident Entities

Generally, if the holder of Ordinary Shares is a Dutch Resident Entity, any income derived or deemed to be derived from the Ordinary Shares or any capital gains realized on the disposal or deemed disposal of the Ordinary Shares is subject to Dutch corporate income tax at a rate of 19% with respect to taxable profits up to €200,000 and 25.8% with respect to taxable profits in excess of that amount (rates and brackets for 2023).

Dutch Resident Individuals

If the holder of Ordinary Shares is a Dutch Resident Individual, any income derived or deemed to be derived from the Ordinary Shares or any capital gains realized on the disposal or deemed disposal of the Ordinary Shares is subject to Dutch personal income tax at progressive rates (with a maximum of 49.5% in 2023), if:

i. the Ordinary Shares are attributable to an enterprise from which the holder of Ordinary Shares derives a share of the profit, whether as an entrepreneur (ondernemer) or as a person who has a co-entitlement to the net worth (medegerechtigd tot het vermogen) of such enterprise without being a shareholder (as defined in the Dutch Income Tax Act 2001); or

ii. the holder of Ordinary Shares is considered to perform activities with respect to the Ordinary Shares that go beyond ordinary asset management (normaal, actief vermogensbeheer) or otherwise derives benefits from the Ordinary Shares that are taxable as benefits from miscellaneous activities (resultaat uit overige werkzaamheden).

Taxation of savings and investments

If the above-mentioned conditions (i) and (ii) do not apply to the Dutch Resident Individual, the Ordinary Shares will be subject to an annual Dutch income tax under the regime for savings and investments (inkomen uit sparen en beleggen). Taxation only occurs insofar the Dutch Resident Individual’s net investment assets for the year exceed a statutory threshold (heffingvrij vermogen). The net investment assets for the year are the fair market value of the investment assets less the fair market value of the liabilities on January 1 of the relevant calendar year (reference date; peildatum). Any actual income or any capital gain realized in respect of the Ordinary Shares is as such not subject to Dutch income tax.

The Dutch Resident Individual’s investment assets and liabilities taxed under this regime, including the Ordinary Shares, are allocated over the following three categories: (a) bank savings (banktegoeden), (b) other investments (overige bezittingen), including the Ordinary Shares, and (c) liabilities (schulden). The taxable benefit for the year (voordeel uit sparen en beleggen) is equal to the product of (x) the total deemed return divided by the sum of bank savings, other investments and liabilities and (y) the sum of bank savings, other investments and liabilities minus the statutory threshold, and is taxed at a flat rate of 32% (rate for 2023).

The deemed return applicable to other investments, including the Ordinary Shares, is set at 6.17% for the calendar year 2023. Transactions in the three-month period before and after January 1 of the relevant calendar year implemented to arbitrate between the deemed return percentages applicable to bank savings, other investments and liabilities will for purpose of determining the applicable deemed return percentage be ignored if the holder of Ordinary Shares cannot sufficiently demonstrate that such transactions are implemented for other than tax reasons.

S-24

Non-residents of the Netherlands

A holder of Ordinary Shares that is neither a Dutch Resident Entity nor a Dutch Resident Individual will not be subject to Dutch income tax in respect of income derived or deemed to be derived from the Ordinary Shares or in respect of capital gains realized on the disposal or deemed disposal, as applicable of the Ordinary Shares, provided that:

i. such holder does not have an interest in an enterprise or deemed enterprise (as defined in the Dutch Income Tax Act 2001 and the Dutch Corporate Income Tax Act 1969, as applicable) which, in whole or in part, is either effectively managed in the Netherlands or carried on through a permanent establishment, a deemed permanent establishment or a permanent representative in the Netherlands and to which enterprise or part of an enterprise the Ordinary Shares are attributable; and

ii. in the event the holder is an individual, such holder does not carry out any activities in the Netherlands with respect to the Ordinary Shares that go beyond ordinary asset management and does not otherwise derive benefits from the Ordinary Shares that are taxable as benefits from miscellaneous activities in the Netherlands.

Gift and inheritance taxes

Residents of the Netherlands

Gift or inheritance taxes will arise in the Netherlands with respect to a transfer of Ordinary Shares by way of a gift by, or on the death of, a holder of Ordinary Shares who is resident or deemed resident of the Netherlands at the time of the gift or such holder’s death.

Non-residents of the Netherlands

No gift or inheritance taxes will arise in the Netherlands with respect to a transfer of Ordinary Shares by way of a gift by, or on the death of, a holder of Ordinary Shares who is neither resident nor deemed to be resident of the Netherlands, unless:

i. in the case of a gift of an Ordinary Share by an individual who at the date of the gift was neither resident nor deemed to be resident of the Netherlands, such individual dies within 180 days after the date of the gift, while being resident or deemed to be resident of the Netherlands; or

ii. in the case of a gift of an Ordinary Share is made under a condition precedent, the holder of Ordinary Shares, as applicable is resident or is deemed to be resident of the Netherlands at the time the condition is fulfilled; or

iii. the transfer is otherwise construed as a gift or inheritance made by, or on behalf of, a person who, at the time of the gift or death, is or is deemed to be resident of the Netherlands.

For purposes of Dutch gift and inheritance taxes, amongst others, a person that holds the Dutch nationality will be deemed to be resident of the Netherlands if such person has been a resident of the Netherlands at any time during the ten years preceding the date of the gift or such person’s death. Additionally, for purposes of Dutch gift tax, amongst others, a person not holding the Dutch nationality will be deemed to be resident of the Netherlands if such person has been a resident of the Netherlands at any time during the twelve months preceding the date of the gift. Applicable tax treaties may override deemed residency.

Value added tax (VAT)

No Dutch VAT will be payable by a holder of Ordinary Shares in respect of any payment in consideration for the acquisition, holding or disposal, as applicable of the Ordinary Shares.

S-25

Real Property Transfer Tax

Under circumstances, the Ordinary Shares could, for the purposes of Dutch real property transfer tax (overdrachtsbelasting), be treated as real property (fictieve onroerende zaken) located in the Netherlands, in which case this tax could be payable upon acquisition of Ordinary Shares.

The Ordinary Shares will generally not be treated as real property if at the time of, or at any time during the year preceding, the acquisition of the Ordinary Shares:

i. our assets do not and did not include real property situated in the Netherlands; or

ii. our assets only include and included real property, situated either in or outside the Netherlands, that we do not and did not hold, and currently do not intend to hold, predominantly as a financial investment.

Real property as referred to under (i) and (ii) above includes legal ownership and more limited legal rights over the property (rights in rem) (zakelijke rechten) as well as contractual rights that give us economic exposure to the value of such real property, and certain participations or interests in entities that are treated as real property.

Our assets do not include and have not included real property situated in the Netherlands as described above. Consequently, no Dutch real property transfer tax becomes payable upon an acquisition of Ordinary Shares.

Stamp Duties

No Dutch documentation taxes (commonly referred to as stamp duties) will be payable by a holder of Ordinary Shares in respect of any payment in consideration for the holding or disposal or exercise, as applicable of the Ordinary Shares.

S-26

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

We have entered into the Sales Agreement with TD Cowen, under which we may issue and sell from time to time our Ordinary Shares through or to TD Cowen as our sales agent. Pursuant to this prospectus, we may issue and sell up to $150.0 million of our Ordinary Shares. Sales of our Ordinary Shares, if any, will be made at market prices by any method that is deemed to be an “at the market offering” as defined in Rule 415(a)(4) under the Securities Act, including sales made directly on Nasdaq or any other trading market for our Ordinary Shares.

TD Cowen will offer our Ordinary Shares subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement on a daily basis or as otherwise agreed upon by us and TD Cowen. We will designate the maximum amount of Ordinary Shares to be sold through TD Cowen on a daily basis or otherwise determine such maximum amount together with TD Cowen. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Sales Agreement, TD Cowen will use its commercially reasonable efforts to sell on our behalf all of the Ordinary Shares requested to be sold by us. We may instruct TD Cowen not to sell Ordinary Shares if the sales cannot be effected at or above the price designated by us in any such instruction. TD Cowen or we may suspend the offering of our Ordinary Shares being made through TD Cowen under the Sales Agreement upon proper notice to the other party. TD Cowen and we each have the right, by giving written notice as specified in the Sales Agreement, to terminate the Sales Agreement in each party’s sole discretion at any time.

The aggregate compensation payable to TD Cowen as sales agent is up to 3.0% of the gross proceeds of the shares sold through it pursuant to the Sales Agreement. We have also agreed to reimburse TD Cowen up to an aggregate of $150,000 of any actual outside legal expenses incurred by TD Cowen in connection with this offering and certain ongoing expenses. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110, TD Cowen’s reimbursed fees and expenses are deemed underwriting compensation for this offering. We estimate that the total expenses of the offering payable by us, excluding commissions payable to TD Cowen under the Sales Agreement, will be approximately $150,000.

The remaining sales proceeds, after deducting any expenses payable by us and any transaction fees imposed by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory organization in connection with the sales, will equal our net proceeds for the sale of such Ordinary Shares.

TD Cowen will provide written confirmation to us following the close of trading on Nasdaq on each day in which Ordinary Shares are sold through it as sales agent under the Sales Agreement. Each confirmation will include the number of Ordinary Shares sold through it as sales agent on that day, the volume weighted average price of the Ordinary Shares sold, the percentage of the daily trading volume and the net proceeds to us.

We will report at least quarterly the number of Ordinary Shares sold through TD Cowen under the Sales Agreement, the net proceeds to us and the compensation paid by us to TD Cowen in connection with the sales of Ordinary Shares.

Settlement for sales of Ordinary Shares will occur, unless the parties agree otherwise, on the second business day that is also a trading day following the date on which any sales were made in return for payment of the net proceeds to us. There is no arrangement for funds to be received in an escrow, trust or similar arrangement.

In connection with the sales of our Ordinary Shares on our behalf, TD Cowen will be deemed to be an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and the compensation paid to TD Cowen will be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts. We have agreed in the Sales Agreement to provide indemnification and contribution to TD Cowen against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. As sales agent, TD Cowen will not engage in any transactions that stabilizes our Ordinary Shares.

Our Ordinary Shares are listed on Nasdaq and trades under the symbol “NAMS.” The transfer agent of our Ordinary Shares is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company.

S-27

TD Cowen and/or its affiliates have provided, and may in the future provide, various investment banking and other financial services for us for which services they have received and may in the future receive customary fees.

TD Cowen’s address is 599 Lexington Avenue, New York, NY 10022.

S-28

ENFORCEABILITY OF CIVIL LIABILITIES

We are organized and existing under the laws of the Netherlands. As such, under Dutch private international law, the rights and obligations of our shareholders vis-à-vis the Company originating from Dutch corporate law and our Articles of Association, as well as the civil liability of our officers (functionarissen) (including our directors and executive officers) are governed in certain respects by the laws of the Netherlands.

We are not a resident of the United States and our officers may also not all be residents of the United States. As a result, depending on the subject matter of the action brought against us and/or our officers, United States courts may not have jurisdiction. If a Dutch court has jurisdiction with respect to such action, that court will apply Dutch procedural law and Dutch private international law to determine the law applicable to that action. Depending on the subject matter of the relevant action, a competent Dutch court may apply another law than the laws of the United States.

Also, service of process against non-residents of the United States can in principle (absent, for example, a valid choice of domicile) not be effected in the United States.

Furthermore, substantially all of our assets are located outside the United States. On the date of this prospectus, (i) there is no treaty in force between the United States and the Netherlands for the reciprocal recognition and enforcement of judgments, other than arbitration awards, in civil and commercial matters and (ii) both the Hague Convention on Choice of Court Agreements (2005) and the Hague Judgments Convention (2019) have entered into force for the Netherlands, but have not entered into force for the United States. Consequently, a judgment rendered by a court in the United States will not automatically be recognized and enforced by the competent Dutch courts. However, if a person has obtained a judgment rendered by a court in the United States that is enforceable under the laws of the United States and files a claim with the competent Dutch court, the Dutch court will in principle give binding effect to that United States judgment if (i) the jurisdiction of the United States court was based on a ground of jurisdiction that is generally acceptable according to international standards, (ii) the judgment by the United States court was rendered in legal proceedings that comply with the Dutch standards of proper administration of justice including sufficient safeguards (behoorlijke rechtspleging), (iii) binding effect of such United States judgment is not contrary to Dutch public order (openbare orde) and (iv) the judgment by the United States court is not incompatible with a decision rendered between the same parties by a Dutch court, or with a previous decision rendered between the same parties by a foreign court in a dispute that concerns the same subject and is based on the same cause, provided that the previous decision qualifies for recognition in the Netherlands. Even if such a United States judgment is given binding effect, a claim based thereon may, however, still be rejected if the United States judgment is not or no longer formally enforceable. Moreover, if the United States judgment is not final (for instance when appeal is possible or pending) a competent Dutch court may postpone recognition until the United States judgment will have become final, refuse recognition under the understanding that recognition can be asked again once the United States judgment will have become final, or impose as a condition for recognition that security is posted.

A competent Dutch court may deny the recognition and enforcement of punitive damages or other awards. Moreover, a competent Dutch court may reduce the amount of damages granted by a United States court and recognize damages only to the extent that they are necessary to compensate actual losses or damages. Thus, United States investors may not be able, or experience difficulty, to enforce a judgment obtained in a United States court against us or our officers.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Description of the Business Combination

On July 25, 2022, FLAC entered into the Business Combination Agreement with NewAmsterdam Pharma Holding B.V., the Company, and NewAmsterdam Pharma Investment Corporation, a Cayman Islands exempted company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company.

On the Closing Date (as defined below), pursuant to the terms of the Business Combination Agreement, the following transactions occurred.

S-30

Both the Merger and PIPE Financing closed on November 22, 2022 (the “Closing Date”). The Company incurred incremental transaction costs directly attributable to the issuance of new shares to FLAC shareholders and the PIPE Financing of €2.5 million, which was netted against the equity proceeds as a reduction in share premium.

The Company also amended existing share-based compensation agreements held by employees of NewAmsterdam Pharma Holding B.V. prior to the Merger, in addition to making additional share-based payments to key management personnel.

Pro Forma Effects of the Business Combination

All material impacts of the Business Combination as outlined above have been reflected within the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the Company as at June 30, 2023 and for the six months ended June 30, 2023 incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement.

In order to prepare a pro forma statement of profit or loss for the year ended December 31, 2022 which gives effect to the Business Combination as if it had occurred on January 1, 2022 the following information would be included:

FLAC’s results of operations are to be combined with the Company for the periods of January 1, 2022 to the Closing Date. FLAC’s results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 are included in the unaudited interim financial statements of Frazier Lifesciences Acquisition Corporation as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 included in the Registration Statement. Proforma adjustments would also include translation of such amounts to Euro, the Company’s functional and presentation currency at a rate of $1.0636 per EUR.

Pro forma adjustments which are not recognized in the consolidated financial statements of the Company as at and for the year ended December 31, 2022 were identified and relate to the elimination of interest income from investments in trust account on FLACs statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and for the operating activity of FLAC from October 1, 2022 until the Closing Date. The impact of such pro forma adjustments is immaterial for the purposes of the pro forma financial information.

S-31

The Company determined that the impact of pro forma adjustments related to the results of operations of FLAC from October 1, 2022 to the Closing Date are immaterial both individually and in the aggregate. The only material impact of combining FLAC’s result of operation for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 is an increase in selling, general and administrative expenses. The pro forma impact of combining FLAC’s result of operation for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 would result in an increase to selling, general and administrative expenses of approximately €4.3 million ($4.5 million converted at a rate of $1.0636 per EUR). In this scenario of combining FLAC’s results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, on a pro forma basis, general and administrative expenses, loss for the year and net loss per share (basic and diluted) would be approximately €26.5 million, €83.5 million and €(1.02), respectively.
