By order of the Board
March 27, 2025
Indivior PLC, 234 Bath Road, Slough, Berkshire, SL1 4EE Company registration number: 09237894
Resolutions 1 to 14 are to be proposed as Ordinary Resolutions. This means that for each of those resolutions to be passed, more than half of the total voting rights of members who vote must be in favor of the resolution. Resolutions 15 to 19 are to be proposed as Special Resolutions. This means that for each of those resolutions to be passed, not less than three-quarters of the total voting rights of members who vote must be in favor of the resolution. An explanation for each resolution is set out below.
Resolution 1 asks shareholders to receive the Company's reports and accounts for the financial year which ended on December 31, 2024. These include both the consolidated accounts and Indivior's stand-alone accounts, together with the strategic report and the other reports of the Directors and of the Auditor. These are all contained in the Annual Report and Accounts 2024.
Resolution 2 seeks shareholder approval of the Directors' Remuneration Report. The vote on Resolution 2 is advisory in nature, meaning that payments and benefits made or promised to Directors would not have to be repaid or withheld should the resolution not be passed. The Directors' Remuneration Report can be found on pages 106 to 124 of the Annual Report and Accounts 2024 and gives details of the Directors' remuneration for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The Company's Auditor, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, has audited those parts of the Directors' Remuneration Report that are required to be audited and its report can be found on pages 130 to 138 of the Annual Report and Accounts 2024.
Resolution 3 seeks shareholder approval for an amended Directors' Remuneration Policy which can be found in Appendix 1 on page 17 of this document. It sets out the Company's proposed future policy on Directors' remuneration, including Directors' pay and the grant of share-based incentives.
For the past decade, the Company's approach to Directors' remuneration has been a careful balancing of the Company's position as a U.K. primary listed company subject to U.K. governance requirements and U.K. investor expectations, alongside Indivior's primarily U.S.-focused business.
As a result of the relocation of Indivior's primary listing from the U.K. to the U.S., the Compensation Committee commenced a comprehensive review of the remuneration practices against U.S. market practice and a U.S. based peer group in 2024. The outcome of that review highlighted that the Company's practices are significantly behind U.S. market norms in terms of overall competitiveness, both in structure and in quantum. As the Company's highest value market, it is imperative for Indivior to have pay arrangements that are appropriate, attractive and competitive in comparison with the U.S. biopharmaceutical sector with which the Company competes for talent.
In December 2024, the Company commenced a consultation with its major shareholders to seek their views on making certain changes to the Directors' Remuneration Policy approved at the 2024 AGM to increase the appropriateness and competitiveness of our arrangements. The changes proposed at that time were an initial step in evolving pay approach, and the intent was to move towards U.S. market norms over a number of years.
On February 27, 2025, the Company announced the appointment of Joe Ciaffoni as Chief Executive Officer, to succeed Mark Crossley who is stepping down from the Board this year. Joe is a proven public company Chief Executive Officer with more than 30 years of experience in pharmaceuticals and biotech, most recently serving as President and CEO of Collegium Pharmaceuticals. He has a strong track record of operational and strategic success, working across diverse models and therapeutic areas spanning specialty, rare disease, mass market and hospital.
Joe Ciaffoni's appointment necessitates the acceleration of Indivior's move to U.S. market norms, as the terms of his appointment are subject to, and effective upon, the approval by shareholders of the proposed Directors' Remuneration Policy.
The principal changes under the proposed Directors' Remuneration Policy are to provide for the on-hire equity award to be granted to Joe Ciaffoni and to increase the annual ontarget grant limit for long term incentives from 200% of salary (400% at maximum, or, if lower, 300,000 shares) to an on-target grant of 400% of salary in 2026 and 700% in 2027, with the maximum being 2x on-target. Long Term Incentive Plan awards may be granted as performance-based awards in the form of performance stock units ("PSUs") and service-based awards in the form of restricted stock units ("RSUs") (with RSUs not normally exceeding 30% of the award). In line with U.S. market practice, the requirement for a post vesting holding period and the mandatory deferral of bonus has been removed. Additionally, the Chair and Non-Executive Directors' fees are being increased to bring them closer to U.S. market norms and will be delivered in a mix of cash and equity, with the majority of the retainer being delivered in equity.
If Resolution 3 is approved, the proposed Directors' Remuneration Policy will be effective from the conclusion of the AGM. Resolution 3 is a binding shareholder vote and, if passed, will mean that the Company can only make remuneration payments to Directors, or payments for loss of office to Directors, in accordance with the approved policy, unless an amendment to that policy authorising the Company to make such payments has been approved by a separate shareholder resolution.
If Resolution 3 is not approved, the Company will, if and to the extent permitted by the Companies Act 2006, be permitted to make payments to its Directors only in accordance with the current Directors' Remuneration Policy approved at the 2024 AGM. This means that if shareholders fail to approve Resolution 3, the Company will not be permitted to implement the terms of Joe Ciaffoni's appointment, and there is no assurance that Indivior would be able to secure the services of Mr. Ciaffoni or others with similar qualifications. The absence of a qualified CEO would have a material adverse impact on the business.
Details on how the Company intends to implement the proposed Directors' Remuneration Policy in 2025 can be found in Appendix 1 on pages 24 and 25.
Resolutions 4 to 10 relate to the election and re-election of each of the Company's Directors.
The Company's Articles of Association require any person who has been appointed as a Director by the Board of Directors since the date of the Company's last AGM to retire at the next AGM following their appointment. Dr. David Wheadon was appointed as an Independent Non-Executive Director in June 2024 and as Chair of the Board in January 2025, Joe Ciaffoni was appointed as
an Independent Non-Executive Director in December 2024 and Daniel Ninivaggi was appointed as an Independent Non-Executive Director in January 2025. Consequently, they will each retire from office at the AGM and will stand for election by the Company's shareholders. The Board unanimously recommends the election of Dr. David Wheadon, Joe Ciaffoni and Daniel Ninivaggi by shareholders at the AGM.

Resolution 1 – Report and Accounts
for the year ended December 31, 2024.
The Company's Articles of Association require any Director who held office at the time of the two preceding AGMs and who did not retire at either of them to retire at the next AGM. Additionally, any Non-Executive Director who has held office for nine years or more at the date of the meeting is required to retire.
Notwithstanding the provisions of the Company's Articles of Association, the Board has determined that all Directors who wish to continue in office shall retire from office at the AGM in accordance with the Company's Corporate Governance Guidelines.
As announced on February 27, 2025, Mark Crossley will be stepping down as Chief Executive Officer and as a Director and therefore does not intend to stand for re-election at the AGM, and Peter Bains and Jo LeCouilliard, Independent Non-Executive Directors, have decided not to stand for re-election at the AGM. Each of the remaining Directors intends to submit themselves for annual re-election by shareholders at the AGM.
Each of the Directors who are seeking election or re-election has been, and continues to be, an effective member of the Board and demonstrates commitment to their role and responsibilities. The Board believes that the considerable and wide-ranging experience of its Directors will continue to be invaluable to the Company.

Current external appointments:
The Company is required to appoint an auditor at each general meeting at which accounts are presented, to hold office until the end of the next meeting of that type.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") has acted as the Company's Auditor since 2014 and, accordingly, the year ended December 31, 2024 was the eleventh consecutive year of its appointment. Pursuant to regulatory provisions, the external audit contract would ordinarily be put out to tender at least every 10 years. As noted in the Company's Annual Report and Accounts 2023, the U.K. Financial Reporting Council ("FRC") granted a two-year extension to the 10-year mandatory tender requirement. In 2024, Indivior management, with oversight by the Audit & Risk Committee, initiated a competitive tender process for the 2026 year-end audit. Initial discussions with accounting firms potentially interested in participating in a competitive tender for the 2026 year-end audit have been held. The formal tender process will begin in Spring 2025 to allow the Company sufficient time to solicit, review, respond to, and appoint the audit firm that will provide the highest-quality and most effective and efficient audit.
The Audit & Risk Committee has recommended to the Board the re-appointment of the Company's existing Auditor, PwC, until the Company's AGM in 2026. The Audit & Risk Committee has confirmed that its recommendation is free from third party influence and that no restrictive contractual provisions have been imposed on the Company limiting the choice of auditor. Accordingly, the Board proposes as Resolution 11 an ordinary resolution to re-appoint PwC as the Auditor.
Resolution 12 follows best practice in corporate governance by separately seeking authority for the Audit & Risk Committee to determine the Auditor's remuneration.
Resolution 13 deals with the rules on political donations and expenditure contained in the Companies Act 2006. The definition of political donations and expenditure in this context is very wide and extends to donations and expenditure incurred in relation to bodies or activities concerned with policy review, law reform and the representation of the business community. It could also include special interest groups, such as those involved with the environment even though these activities are not designed to support or influence support for a particular political party. Whilst the Company and its U.K. subsidiaries do not intend to incur political expenditure nor make donations to political parties, political organizations or to independent election candidates, within the normal meaning of that expression, the Directors consider that it is in the best interests of the shareholders for the Company to participate in public debate and opinion-forming on matters which affect its business. To avoid inadvertently infringing the Companies Act 2006, the Directors are seeking authority for the Company and its U.K. subsidiaries to make political donations and to incur political expenditure during the period from the date of the AGM in 2025 to the end of the AGM in 2026 up to an aggregate amount of £50,000.
It is worth noting, however, that the Company's U.S. subsidiaries may make political donations as defined under U.K. law. Donations by the Company's U.S. subsidiaries are not permitted to exceed \$500,000.
Resolution 14 seeks authority under the Companies Act 2006 for the Directors to allot ordinary shares in the capital of the Company. The Directors' existing allotment authority is due to expire at the 2025 AGM. The U.K. Investment Association's Share Capital Management Guidelines 2023 state that its members will regard as routine resolutions seeking authority to allot shares representing up to two-thirds of the Company's issued share capital, provided that any amount in excess of one-third of the Company's issued share capital is only used to allot shares in connection with a fully pre-emptive offer to existing shareholders.
In light of these guidelines, the Board considers it appropriate that the Directors be granted authority to allot shares in the capital of the Company up to a maximum nominal amount of \$41,551,952 representing approximately two-thirds or 67% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at March 3, 2025 (the latest practicable date prior to publication of this document (the "Latest Practicable Date")).
Of this amount, a nominal amount of \$20,775,976 (representing approximately one-third or 33% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital) can only be allotted in connection with a preemptive offer to existing shareholders (with exclusions to deal with fractional entitlements to shares and overseas shareholders to whom the offer cannot be made due to legal and practical
problems). The authority will last until the close of business on June 30, 2026 or, if earlier, until the conclusion of the Company's AGM in 2026. The Directors have no present intention to allot new ordinary shares other than to fulfil the Company's obligations under its executive and employee share plans. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company held no ordinary shares in treasury.
If the Directors wish to allot shares, or grant rights to subscribe for, or convert securities into, shares, or sell treasury shares, for cash (unless pursuant to an employees' share scheme), they must first offer them to existing shareholders in proportion to their holdings. There may be occasions when the Directors need the flexibility to finance business opportunities by allotting shares without a pre-emptive offer to existing shareholders, and this can be done if the shareholders have first given a limited waiver of their pre-emption rights.
Resolution 15 and Resolution 16 ask shareholders to grant this limited waiver. The resolutions will be proposed as special resolutions.
Resolution 15 contains a three-part waiver. The first part is limited to the allotment of shares for cash on a pre-emptive basis to allow the Directors to make appropriate exclusions and other arrangements to resolve legal or practical problems which, for example, might arise in relation to overseas shareholders. The second part is limited to the allotment of shares for cash up to an aggregate nominal value of \$6,232,792 (which includes the sale on a non-pre-emptive basis of any shares held in treasury), which represents approximately 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at the Latest Practicable Date.
The third part applies to the allotment of shares for cash for the purposes of a follow-on offer when an allotment of shares has been made under the second waiver. It is limited to the allotment of shares having an aggregate nominal value of up to 20% of the nominal value of any shares allotted under the second waiver. The follow-on offer must be determined by the Directors to be of a kind contemplated by the Pre-Emption Group's 2022 Statement of Principles. The Directors confirm that they will follow the shareholder protections in section 2B and the expected features of a follow-on offer in paragraph 3 of section 2B of the Pre-Emption Group's 2022 Statement of Principles.
The waiver granted by Resolution 16 is in addition to the waiver granted by Resolution 15 and itself has two parts. The first part is limited to the allotment of shares for cash up to an aggregate nominal value of \$6,232,792 (which includes the sale on a nonpre-emptive basis of any shares held in treasury), which represents a further 10% (approximately) of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at the Latest Practicable Date. The first part of the waiver may only be used for an allotment of shares for cash for the purposes of financing (or refinancing, if the waiver is used within twelve months of the original transaction) a transaction which the Directors determine to be an acquisition or specified capital investment of a kind contemplated by the Pre-emption Group's 2022 Statement of Principles. The second part of the waiver applies to the allotment of shares for cash for the purposes of a follow-on offer when an allotment of shares has been made under the first part of the waiver. It is limited to the allotment of shares having an aggregate nominal value of up to 20% of the nominal value of any shares allotted under the first waiver.
The follow-on offer must be determined by the Directors to be of a kind contemplated by the Pre-Emption Group's 2022 Statement of Principles. The Directors confirm that they will follow the shareholder protections in section 2B and the expected features of a follow-on offer in paragraph 3 of section 2B of the Pre-Emption Group's 2022 Statement of Principles.
If the resolutions are passed, the waivers will expire at the conclusion of the AGM in 2026 or, if earlier, the close of business on June 30, 2026.
Resolution 17 will authorize the Directors to make market purchases of the Company's own ordinary shares pursuant to sections 693 and 701 of the Companies Act 2006. The authority limits the number of ordinary shares that could be purchased up to a maximum of 12,465,585 ordinary shares (equivalent to approximately 10% of the Company's issued ordinary share capital as at the Latest Practicable Date) and sets a minimum and maximum price for such market purchases. This authority will expire at the close of business on June 30, 2026 or, if earlier, at the conclusion of the Company's AGM in 2026.
The Company may consider holding any of its own ordinary shares which it purchases pursuant to the authority conferred by this resolution as treasury shares. This would allow the Company to sell ordinary shares out of treasury. No dividends will be paid on any ordinary shares held in treasury and no voting rights will attach to such shares. It will also be possible for the Company to transfer shares out of treasury pursuant to an employees' share scheme. As at the Latest Practicable Date, the Company held no ordinary shares in treasury.
As at the Latest Practicable Date, there were awards and options to subscribe for 4,287,083 ordinary shares in the capital of the Company representing 3.44% of the Company's issued share capital. If the authority to purchase the Company's ordinary shares (both existing and being sought in Resolution 17) were to be exercised in full, these awards and options would represent 3.97% of the Company's issued share capital.
The Directors have no present intention of exercising the authority being sought in Resolution 17 to purchase additional shares of the Company but will keep the matter under review. The Directors will use this authority to purchase shares only after careful consideration (taking into account market conditions, other investment opportunities, appropriate gearing levels and the overall financial position of the Company). Further, the Directors intend to use this authority to buy back shares only if they believe that to do so would have a positive effect on earnings per share and would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders taken as a whole.
Resolution 18 is a special resolution to allow the Company to hold general meetings, other than AGMs, on not less than 14 clear days' notice. Under the Companies Act 2006 the minimum notice period for listed company general meetings is 21 clear days unless (i) shareholders approve a shorter notice period, which cannot be less than 14 clear days; and (ii) the Company offers the facility for all shareholders to vote by electronic means. The current authority will expire at the Company's AGM in 2025 and the Company would like to renew this authority.
The Board is therefore proposing Resolution 18 as a special resolution to approve 14 clear days as the minimum period of notice for all general meetings of the Company other than AGMs. The approval will be effective until the Company's next AGM in 2026. The shorter notice period would not be routinely used. The Board will consider on a case-by-case basis whether the use of the flexibility offered by the shorter notice period is merited, taking into account the circumstances, including whether the business of the meeting is time-sensitive and whether it is thought to be to the advantage of shareholders as a whole.
Resolution 19 is a special resolution, which seeks approval to adopt new articles of association (the "New Articles") of the Company in substitution for, and to the exclusion of, the existing articles of association of the Company (the "Existing Articles"). This resolution has been proposed following the Company's transfer of its listing on the Official List of the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (the "Official List") and the Main Market of the London Stock Exchange from a Premium Listing to a Standard Listing (the "Listing Transfer") and the Company's subsequent inclusion in the Transition category of the Official List upon the adoption of the revised U.K. Listing Rules on July 29, 2024. Since the Listing Transfer, the Company's listing on the Nasdaq Global Select Market has been its primary listing and, in light of such relocation of its primary listing, the Company is seeking to amend and restate the Existing Articles to reflect corporate governance market practices for U.S. listed companies, as well as to reflect other market developments and clarifying changes.
A copy of the New Articles marked up to show all the proposed changes to the Existing Articles is available at www.indivior.com/en/investors/shareholder-information.
The principal changes made to the Existing Articles are summarised in Appendix 2 on page 26 of this document.

Shareholders who wish to appoint more than one proxy in respect of their shareholding should contact the Company's Registrar, Computershare Trust Company, N.A., on 1 (866) 644-4127 (in the U.S.) or 1 (781) 575-2906 (outside of the U.S.) for additional Forms of Proxy, or you may copy the Form of Proxy provided with this document indicating on each copy the name of the proxy you wish to appoint and the number of Ordinary Shares in respect of which the proxy is appointed. All Forms of Proxy should be returned together in the same envelope to the address specified in Note 18. Where you wish to appoint more than one proxy, failure to specify the number of Ordinary Shares in respect of which each proxy is appointed or specifying more Ordinary Shares than you hold will result in the proxy appointments being invalid.
The notes on the Form of Proxy explain how to direct your proxy to vote on the resolutions or withhold their vote. A vote withheld is not a vote in law, which means that the vote will not be counted in the calculation of votes for or against the resolution. If no voting indication is given, your proxy will vote or withhold the vote at their discretion. Your proxy will vote (or withhold the vote) as they think fit in relation to any other matter which is put before the AGM.
To appoint a proxy, the enclosed Form of Proxy, and any power of attorney or other authority under which it is executed (or a duly certified copy of any such power or authority), must be completed and returned to the Company's Registrar, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. at P.O. Box 43118, Providence, RI 02940-5132, U.S.A. A prepaid envelope is enclosed for the return of the Form of Proxy. In the case of a member which is a company, the Form of Proxy must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an officer of the company or an attorney for the company. This must be received by no later than 12.00pm (U.K. time) on Tuesday, May 6, 2025 or, if the meeting is adjourned, by no later than 48 hours (excluding any part of a day that is not a U.K. business day) before the time of the holding of the adjourned meeting.

If a member submits more than one valid proxy appointment, the appointment received last before the latest time for the receipt of proxies will take precedence.
Where a member has appointed a proxy using the hard-copy Form of Proxy and would like to change their instructions, the member must send another hard-copy Form of Proxy to the Computershare address specified in Note 18. Such members may not submit amended proxy instructions electronically.

Where a member has appointed a proxy electronically, and would like to change their instructions, the member must register a new proxy appointment to the InvestorVote service as specified in Note 19 above. Such members may not submit amended proxy instructions using a hard-copy Form of Proxy.
A member may revoke a hard-copy or electronic proxy instruction by informing the Company in writing by sending a signed hard-copy notice clearly stating the member's intention to revoke the proxy appointment to the Company's Registrar, Computershare Trust Company, N.A. at P.O. Box 43118, Providence, RI 02940-5132, U.S.A. In the case of a member that is a company, the revocation notice must be executed under its common seal or signed on its behalf by an officer of the company or an attorney for the company.

For this purpose, the time of receipt will be taken to be the time (as determined by the timestamp applied to the CREST Voting Instruction by the CREST Applications Host) from which the issuer's agent is able to retrieve the CREST Voting Instruction by enquiry to CREST in the manner prescribed by CREST. CREST members (and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers) should note that EUI does not make available special procedures in CREST for any particular messages. Normal system timings and limitations will therefore apply in relation to the transmission of CREST Voting Instructions. It is the responsibility of the CREST member concerned to take (or, if the CREST member is a CREST Personal Member or sponsored member or has appointed a voting service provider, to procure that his CREST sponsor or voting service provider(s) take(s)) such action as shall be necessary to ensure that a CREST Voting Instruction is transmitted by means of the CREST service by any particular time. In this connection, CREST members (and, where applicable, their CREST sponsors or voting service providers) are referred, in particular, to those sections of the CREST Manual concerning practical limitations of the CREST system and timings.

Executive Directors may receive various market-competitive benefits, which may, in addition to benefits made available to employees of the Group generally, include: a company car (or cash equivalent), travel allowance, private medical and dental insurance, travel accident policy, and disability and life assurance. Where appropriate, other benefits (including the tax thereon) may be provided to take account of individual circumstances, such as but not limited to expatriate allowances, relocation expenses, travel expenses, legal advice, housing allowance or support and education support. The Company provides Directors' and Officers' liability insurance and an indemnity, to the extent permitted by law. |

| Annual incentive plan (AIP) | |||
| To drive strong financial performance and reward the delivery of the business strategy on an annual basis. |
Performance is assessed on an annual basis with measures and targets normally set by the Committee at the start of the performance year. At the end of the performance year, the Committee determines the extent to which these have been achieved. Bonuses are paid after the end of the performance year. The Committee has discretion to adjust the formulaic bonus outcomes both upward and downward (including to zero) taking into account relevant factors including, but not limited to, the underlying performance of the Group. |
The maximum annual bonus payable under the AIP is 200% of base salary (with the on-target award at 100% of base salary). The current maximum bonus level applying to an Executive Director is set out in the Annual Report on Remuneration. |
Bonuses are based on challenging annual financial and/or non financial measures (including strategic, operational and individual performance measures). The Committee retains the discretion to change the measures and their respective weightings from year to year to ensure alignment with business priorities. Bonus measures will usually be based at least 50% on financial measures with the balance based on non-financial measures as described above. For threshold performance, normally up to 50% of the on-target bonus opportunity may be received; and for maximum performance, up to 200% of the on-target bonus opportunity may be received. Further details, including the performance measures and weightings in respect of the relevant financial year, are disclosed in the Annual Report on Remuneration. Annual bonus payments are subject to malus and clawback arrangements as detailed in the notes following this table. |

| Long-term incentive plan (LTIP) |

| To incentivize and reward longer-term performance, and align the interests of Executive Directors with those of shareholders through share-based awards. All-employee share plans |
Awards under the LTIP may consist of grants of conditional share awards, nil-cost options or market value share options. Awards may be granted subject to achievement of performance conditions ("PSUs") or subject to time vesting ("RSUs") or a combination thereof (with normally not more than 30% of an Award being granted as an RSU). PSUs may vest subject to the achievement of challenging performance targets measured over a performance period (which will typically be at least three years). Vesting of RSUs and PSUs may occur annually or at the conclusion of the three-year cycle. The LTIP opportunity is reviewed annually with reference to market data, and the associated cost to the Group is calculated using an expected value methodology. Any performance conditions are reviewed before each cycle to ensure they remain appropriate and targets are suitably stretching. In accordance with the terms of the LTIP, performance conditions applicable to subsisting awards may be amended if the Committee considers it appropriate, provided that the amended performance conditions are not materially easier or more difficult to satisfy than when originally set. Dividends or dividend equivalents may be paid upon vesting, normally in the form of additional shares, on LTIP awards that vest. The Committee has discretion to adjust the formulaic LTIP outcomes both upward and downward (including to zero) taking into account factors including, but not limited to, the underlying performance of the Group. |
The on-target level annual award that may be made to any individual in respect of any financial year will be 400% of base salary in 2026 and 700% of base salary in 2027, with the maximum being 2x on-target. The value for this purpose is normally the aggregate grant market value of the shares. Details of the on-target and maximum LTIP award in respect of each year will be disclosed in the Annual Report on Remuneration. |
PSUs granted under the LTIP will typically vest over a three-year period subject to continued employment and, if applicable, the achievement of key financial and non-financial performance conditions which are aligned with the Group's strategic plan and the creation of shareholder value. Non financial measures can include, among others, absolute or relative shareholder return, operational metrics, and strategic objectives. RSUs will typically vest following a three-year performance cycle or ratably over a three-year period subject to continued employment. The Committee retains the discretion to change the measures and their respective weightings from year to year to ensure alignment with business priorities. In any event, LTIP measures for PSUs will normally be based at least 50% on share price or shareholder return-based measures and no more than 50% on other non financial measures. Threshold performance will normally result in up to 50% of the on-target award vesting and 200% of the on-target award will vest at maximum. Further details, including the performance targets attached to the LTIP in respect of each year, are disclosed in the Annual Report on Remuneration. Awards are subject to malus and clawback arrangements as detailed in the notes following this table. |

Executive Directors are expected to acquire a significant number of shares and retain these until retirement from the Board. The shareholding requirement is 600% of base salary for the Chief Executive Officer. This is generally expected to be achieved within five years of the date of appointment. The Committee reserves the right to restrict Executive Directors from selling shares acquired pursuant to any executive compensation plan until the shareholding requirement is satisfied. Details of the Executive Director's current shareholdings are provided in the Annual Report on Remuneration.
The Committee reserves the right to make any remuneration payments and payments for loss of office (including exercising any discretions available to it in connection with such payments) notwithstanding that they are not in line with the 2025 Remuneration Policy set out above where the terms of the payment were (i) agreed before the 2025 Remuneration Policy set out above came into effect, provided that the terms of the payment were consistent with the shareholder-approved Directors' Remuneration Policy in force at the time they were agreed; or (ii) at a time when the relevant individual was not a Director of the Company and, in the opinion of the Committee, the payment was not in consideration for the individual becoming a Director of the Company. For these purposes "payments" includes the Committee satisfying awards of variable remuneration and, in relation to an award over shares, the terms of the payment are "agreed" at the time the award is granted.
Malus and clawback provisions apply to the AIP and LTIP if, in the Committee's opinion, any of the following has occurred:
LTIP awards may be subject to malus and clawback up to the fifth anniversary of the grant of awards.
Share-based awards will typically be settled in shares, but may be settled in cash in certain circumstances (for example, where the Committee determines that it is not possible or practical to settle awards with shares).
The terms of awards may be adjusted in the event of a variation of the Company's share capital, a demerger, special dividend or distribution or any other circumstances as the Committee considers appropriate.
The AIP performance measures are selected to provide an appropriate balance between incentivizing Executive Directors to meet financial targets for the year and incentivizing them to further the Group's strategic, operational and other objectives.
The particular measures each year are selected to ensure focus on the key objectives for that particular financial year.
In respect of the LTIP, the Committee annually reviews the performance measures which apply to awards to ensure that they are aligned with the Group's strategy and with shareholders' interests over the longer term.
Measures and targets for both the AIP and LTIP are reviewed annually against a number of internal and external reference points. Measures and targets are set at levels the Committee considers to be appropriately stretching for the level of performance delivered.
The 2025 Remuneration Policy is intended to align with U.S. market practice where we compete for executive talent and to align with the wider workforce.
The Group's approach to annual base salary reviews is consistent across the business, with consideration given to the level of experience, responsibility, individual performance and salary levels for comparable roles in comparable companies.
The majority of employees participate in an annual incentive plan, but LTIP awards are only made to certain senior executives in the Group.
The Group also operates all-employee shares plans that are open to eligible employees in relevant jurisdictions where allowed under applicable law.
Employees are also entitled to taxable and non-taxable benefits (including eligibility to participate in defined contribution pension arrangements), with employees being entitled to substantially the same benefit structure (such as pension contribution rates) as Executive Directors, taking account of the market practice in the relevant jurisdiction.
The Committee retains discretion as to the operation and administration of the AIP and LTIP, including with respect to:
– adjustments required in certain circumstances (e.g. rights issues, share buybacks, special dividends, other corporate events, etc.).
All discretions available under share plan rules will be available under the 2025 Remuneration Policy, except where explicitly limited under the 2025 Remuneration Policy.
Any use of the above discretions would, where relevant, be explained in the Annual Report on Remuneration. As appropriate, the Committee may also seek consultation with the Company's major shareholders.
In the event of a temporary base salary reduction, the Committee retains the discretion to apply the limits in the 2025 Remuneration Policy table relating to pension, AIP and LTIP to the base salary prior to any such reduction. Where such temporary base salary reductions are made, the Committee reserves the ability (either in part or in full) to reimburse at a later date taking into account all factors deemed relevant.
The Committee may make minor amendments to the 2025 Remuneration Policy (for example, for regulatory, exchange control, tax or administrative purposes or to take account of a change in legislation) without obtaining shareholder approval.
The charts below show the potential future reward opportunities for the Executive Director, Mark Crossley and the proposed Executive Director, Joe Ciaffoni. They provide an estimate of the potential opportunities, split between the different elements of remuneration under four different performance scenarios: 'Minimum', 'On-target', 'Maximum' and 'Maximum plus 50% share price growth'. In each case, they have been prepared in accordance with Schedule 8 paragraph 34 of the Large and Medium-sized Companies and Groups (Account and Reports) Regulations 2008. With the exception of the illustration showing 50% share price growth, no share price variation is taken into consideration in these scenarios. At the time of entering into the employment agreement with Mr. Ciaffoni on March 3, 2025, Indivior's closing share price was \$9.55. The performance-based PSUs will only vest if volume weighted average share price targets, ranging from \$15 to \$35 per share, are achieved. Any shares that vest under the PSU award will be subject to holding requirements. See page 23 for additional information on the volume weighted average share price targets and other conditions of the PSU award.


The above charts, unless stated otherwise, are based on the face value of awards and do not include the value of any dividends.
| Performance scenario | Basis of valuation |
|---|---|
| Minimum performance below threshold Fixed pay only – base salary and benefits (using the figures as reported for the 2024 financial year, in the case of Mark Crossley, and estimated annualized figure for the 2025 financial year, in the case of Joe Ciaffoni) and pension benefits |
|
| On-target performance | Fixed pay plus AIP at target performance (100% of on-target) and 50% of maximum vesting of performance-based PSU awards and 100% vesting of service-based RSU awards under the LTIP |
| Maximum performance | Fixed pay plus maximum AIP and maximum vesting under the LTIP (all performance conditions met) |
| Maximum performance plus 50% share price growth |
Fixed pay plus maximum AIP and maximum vesting under the LTIP (all performance conditions met) plus 50% share price appreciation over the performance period |
The Chair and Non-Executive Directors do not have service agreements, but are engaged on the basis of a letter of appointment. All Directors, including the Chair and Non-Executive Directors, are each subject to re-appointment annually at the Annual General Meeting. The Chair and Non-Executive Directors are not eligible to participate in the Group's AIP, LTIP or pension schemes. To align with U.S. market practice, following the 2025 AGM, it is proposed to restructure Chair and Non-Executive Directors' fees so that fees may be delivered in a mix of cash and equity, with the majority of total fees being paid in equity. To facilitate this, the Chair and Non-Executive Directors will participate in the NED Share Program as described below.
Details of the 2025 Remuneration Policy on fees paid to the Chair and Non-Executive Directors are set out in the table below:
| Fees and other arrangements | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| Component and objective | To attract and retain Non-Executive Directors, including the Chair, of the highest caliber with broad business and governance experience relevant to the Group. |
||
| Approach of the Company | Fees are usually paid partly in cash and partly in shares. Non-Executive Directors, including the Chair, participate in the NED Share Program under which at least 70% of the retainer fee (i.e. base fee) (after taxes) will be delivered in Company shares, which must then normally be held for at least one year following acquisition (or until termination of appointment, if earlier). The Chair and the Non-Executive Directors are subject to the shareholding guidelines as set out below. The fees paid to Non-Executive Directors are determined by the Board of Directors. The fees of the Chair are determined by the Committee. Additional fees may be payable for acting as Lead Independent Director, as Chair of a Board Committee (including the Audit & Risk, Compensation, Compliance, Ethics & Sustainability, Nomination, and Science Committees) and as members of those Board Committees. Additional fees may be paid for additional time commitments, including, for example, international travel. Fee levels are reviewed from time to time. Fees are reviewed by taking into account external advice on best practice and competitive levels, in particular at peer companies. Time commitment and responsibility are also taken into account when reviewing fees. Chair and Non-Executive Directors' fees are not subject to performance conditions. The Chair and Non-Executive Directors will also be reimbursed for their travel, accommodation and other costs incurred in the pursuance of their duties (including any tax which may be payable in respect of such costs). The maximum reimbursement is expenses reasonably incurred (including any taxes thereon). The Company provides Directors' and Officers' liability insurance, and an indemnity to the extent permitted by law. |
||
Subject to shareholder approval of the 2025 Remuneration Policy, the Chair and Non-Executive Directors are required to build a shareholding of shares with a value equivalent to 400% of the cash element of their retainer. They are expected to achieve this holding within five years of the date of appointment to the Board or the effective date of the 2025 Remuneration Policy, whichever is later.
The Chair and Non-Executive Directors have letters of appointment setting out their duties and the time commitment expected. The Chair and Non-Executive Directors' appointments can be terminated by one month's notice by either party.
Appointments are terminated automatically if the Chair of Non-Executive Director is not elected/re-elected by the shareholders or otherwise in accordance with the Company's Articles of Association. The Chair and Non-Executive Directors have no entitlement to compensation on termination. Details of the date of appointment and length of service of the Chair and Non-Executive Directors are set out on page 122 of the 2024 Annual Report and Accounts.
When determining the remuneration package for a new Executive Director, the Committee will take into account all relevant factors based on the circumstances at that time. This may include factors such as the caliber of the individual, market practice in the candidate's location or locations and scope of the role to which they are being appointed.
Typically, the package will be aligned to the 2025 Remuneration Policy as set out above, with the overall limit of variable remuneration as set out in the 2025 Remuneration Policy. However, should there be a commercial imperative for doing so, the Committee has the discretion to include any other remuneration elements, to vary the composition of the remuneration package, or to grant a sign-on award in excess of the limits set out in the 2025 Remuneration Policy. The Committee is always mindful of the need to pay no more than is necessary.
The Committee may make an award in respect of a new appointment to "buy out" incentive arrangements forfeited on leaving a previous employer, i.e. over and above the maximum limit on variable remuneration set out above. In doing so, the Committee will consider relevant factors including any performance conditions attached to these awards and the likelihood of those conditions being met with the intention that the value awarded would be no higher than the expected value of the forfeited arrangements and made on a like-for-like basis.
In the case of Joe Ciaffoni, in connection with his recruitment, he will be granted on-hire awards consisting of (i) performance share units ("PSUs") with a grant date value of 12 times his base salary, subject to a cap of 1.575 million shares; and (ii) restricted shares units ("RSUs") with a grant date value of four times his base salary subject to a cap of 525,000 shares. The RSUs will cliff-vest on the third anniversary of the commencement of his employment, subject to continued employment. The PSUs will not be capable of vesting during the 12 months following the commencement of his employment (except in connection with a change of control), and thereafter will vest in accordance with achievement of a performance condition based on the Company's share price (as defined below), and subject to his continued employment on the date the performance condition is met. He must hold the shares resulting from the vested PSUs for a period of 12 months following vesting, save as necessary to satisfy the applicable tax liability. The performance condition refers to the achievement by the Company of the applicable volume-weighted average share price ("VWAP") during any 30 consecutive trading days between the one-year and five-year anniversaries of the commencement of his employment:
| VWAP | Percentage of PSUs to Vest |
|---|---|
| \$15.00 | 30% |
| \$20.00 | 20% |
| \$25.00 | 20% |
| \$30.00 | 15% |
| \$35.00 | 15% |
When appointing a new Executive Director by way of internal promotion, the policy will be generally consistent with that for external appointees, as detailed above. Where an individual has contractual commitments made prior to their promotion to Executive Director and, in the opinion of the Committee, the commitment was not in consideration for the individual becoming a Director of the Company, the Company will continue to honor these arrangements even in instances where they would not otherwise be consistent with the prevailing Executive Director remuneration policy at the time of appointment or payment.
In recruiting a new Chair or Non-Executive Director, the Committee will use the 2025 Remuneration Policy table. A basic fee level in line with the prevailing fee schedule would be payable for membership of the Board, with an additional fee amount payable for additional time commitments, including but not limited to acting as Lead Independent Director, as Chair of the Audit & Risk, Compensation, Compliance, Ethics & Sustainability, Nomination, and Science Committees, and for being a member of such Board Committees. Fees will be paid by way of a mix of equity and cash in line with the 2025 Remuneration Policy set out above.
Executive Directors' service contracts, including arrangements for termination, are carefully considered by the Committee. Reflecting the Company's listing at the time it was entered into, in accordance with general U.K. market practice, Mark Crossley, (the current Chief Executive Officer) has a rolling service contract which is terminable on 12 months' notice. In such an event, the compensation commitments in respect of his contracts could amount to one year's remuneration based on base salary and benefits in kind and pension rights during the notice period.
In line with the Company's move to align with U.S. market practice, Joe Ciaffoni will have an "at-will" service contract which is terminable (i) by the employer at any time with immediate effect with or without cause, (ii) by the employee without good reason with 60 days' notice, or (iii) by the employee for good reason following a cure period. In case of termination by the employer without cause or by the employee for good reason, Mr. Ciaffoni will be entitled to receive severance payments consisting of base salary and target amount of annual bonus during a severance period of 18 months, and continue to participate in health benefits for 18 months. In case of termination without cause or for good reason during the period beginning three months prior to and ending 12 months following a change in control, the relevant severance period described above will be 24 months. The treatment of awards under the AIP and LTIP is set out in the table below.
The Company's policy on any termination payment is to consider the circumstances on a case-by-case basis, taking into account the relevant contractual terms in the Executive Director's service contract, incentive plan rules and the circumstances of the termination. The Committee reserves the right to make any other payments in connection with an Executive Director's cessation of office or employment where the payments are made in good faith in the interests of the Company, for example in discharge of an existing legal obligation (or by way of damages for breach of such an obligation) or by way of settlement of any potential claim arising in connection with the cessation of a Director's office or employment. Any such payments may include but are not limited to paying any fees for outplacement assistance and/or the Executive Director's legal and/or professional advice fees in connection with their cessation of office or employment.
The table below summarizes how unvested awards under the AIP and LTIP granted after the date of adoption of the 2025 Remuneration Policy would typically be treated in specific circumstances, with the final treatment remaining subject to the Committee's discretion as provided under the rules of the plans. Awards granted prior to the date of adoption of the 2025 Remuneration Policy would be treated consistently with the table in the 2024 remuneration policy:
| Reasons for cessation | Treatment | |
|---|---|---|
| Annual incentive plan (AIP) |
Death or disability | Annual bonus may be paid only to the extent that objectives set at the beginning of the plan year have been met, on a pro-rata basis to the termination date. Any such payment will be made at the usual bonus payment date following the year-end. |
| Termination without "cause" or resignation for "good reason" |
On-target annual bonus will be paid in respect of 18 months following termination over such severance period. |
|
| All other circumstances Generally no bonus to be paid, unless the Committee determines it is appropriate in the circumstances. |
||
| Long-term incentive plan (LTIP) |
Termination without "cause" or resignation for "good reason" (other than in connection with change of control) |
"Severance period" for this purpose is 18 months following termination. RSUs will vest at termination, subject to pro-rata reduction for the period from the end of the severance period until the original vesting date. |
| PSUs that are not part of an on-hire award will vest on the original vesting date (or at the end of the severance period, if earlier) based on the extent to which performance conditions have been achieved, subject to pro-rata reduction for the period from the end of the severance period until the original vesting date. |
||
| PSUs that are part of an on-hire award will remain capable of vesting during the severance period, based on the extent to which performance conditions have been achieved. |
||
| Termination without "cause" or resignation for good reason (during the period beginning three months prior to and ending 12 months following a change in control) |
"Severance period" for this purpose is 24 months following termination. RSUs vest in full at termination. |
|
| PSUs that are not part of an on-hire award that are subject to operational or financial metrics will vest at termination at on-target vesting. PSUs that are not part of an on-hire aware that are subject to conditions relating to share price or shareholder return will vest at termination by reference to the share price consideration payable upon a change in control. If the Company's shares remain listed in the U.S. following a change in control, any remaining PSUs subject to conditions relating to share price or shareholder return that have not vested as at termination will remain capable of vesting during the severance period. PSUs that are part of an on-hire award will vest upon change in control (whether or not the Executive |
||
| Director is terminated) by reference to the share price consideration payable upon a change in control. All unvested shares will be forfeited. |
||
| All other circumstances Unvested awards lapse, unless the Committee determines otherwise. |
Mark Crossley received a base salary increase of 3.5%, effective January 1, 2025, which is aligned with the average increase for the wider workforce, to \$902,261.
Joe Ciaffoni's base salary will be \$1,050,000 per annum.
Mark Crossley's AIP opportunity remains unchanged for 2025 and the metrics will be based on delivering a smooth transition to his successor. He will also have an entitlement to \$250,000 upon achievement of the Group's net revenue and adjusted operating profit targets for H1 2025.
Joe Ciaffoni's on-target AIP opportunity will be 100% of base salary for 2025 (maximum of 200% of base salary), pro-rated from the commencement of his employment.
The Committee has considered the key strategic objectives for the business and has aligned the performance measures for the 2025 AIP with these. The targets are focused on accelerating the global growth of SUBLOCADE®, delivery of key objectives during the year for pipeline assets, advancing OPVEE® in the U.S and achievement of certain Adjusted Operating Profit targets.
An Environmental, Social and Governance ("ESG") metric will act as a modifier to the overall AIP outturn, potentially reducing the overall AIP outturn by up to 10% if certain ESG targets are not met. The ESG targets are closely tied to our mission and ESG
maturity journey, and include initiatives linked to 1) the longterm reduction of Scope 1 and 2 carbon emissions; 2) increasing the understanding of substance use disorders to pave the way for a deeper understanding of patient needs and treatment innovation; and 3) maintaining high standards of compliance.
The 2025 AIP will be based on the following measures and weightings:
| Measure | Weighting |
|---|---|
| Global net revenue – SUBLOCADE | 50% |
| U.S. net revenue - OPVEE | 10% |
| Adjusted Operating Profit | 30% |
| Pipeline KPIs | 10% |
| ESG modifier | (up to -10%) |
The AIP performance targets for 2025, including the ESG modifier, have not been disclosed as they are considered to be commercially sensitive. However, we commit to disclosing the performance targets retrospectively in next year's Annual Report on Remuneration.
Subject to shareholder approval of the 2025 Remuneration Policy, the 2025 bonus to be paid in 2026 will be delivered wholly in cash without any deferral into shares.
Neither Mark Crossley nor Joe Ciaffoni will receive any LTIP award for 2025. Mr. Ciaffoni's on-hire awards granted in connection with his recruitment, as described on page 23 will be in lieu of such annual award.
The table below sets out the fees for the Chair and Non-Executive Directors. 70% of the retainer (80% for the Chair) will be delivered in shares with the balance paid in cash.
| Fee in GBP1 | Fee in US\$1 | |
|---|---|---|
| Chair retainer2 | n/a | \$500,000 |
| Non-Executive Director retainer | £200,000 | \$250,000 |
| Additional Lead Independent Director | ||
| fee | £20,000 | \$25,000 |
| Additional Committee Chair fee (Audit & Risk Committee and Compensation |
||
| Committee) | £24,000 | \$30,000 |
| Additional Committee Chair fee (Compliance, Ethics & Sustainability, |
||
| Nomination and Science Committees) | £16,000 | \$20,000 |
| Additional Committee membership fee (Audit & Risk Committee and |
||
| Compensation Committee) | £12,000 | \$15,000 |
| Additional Committee membership | ||
| fee (Compliance, Ethics & | ||
| Sustainability, Nomination and | ||
| Science Committees) | £8,000 | \$10,000 |
Fees paid to the Chair and the Non-Executive Directors are paid in their local currency. In 2025, a fixed exchange rate (GB£1:US\$1.25) was applied to translate U.K. amounts into U.S. dollars, effectively setting fees at that time, on both a U.K. and U.S. basis.
The Chair of the Board does not receive additional fees for being a member of the Committees or for chairing any Committee.
Following the Listing Transfer, it is proposed to adopt the New Articles in replacement of the Existing Articles with effect from the conclusion of the AGM.
The principal changes to the Existing Articles, which are included in the New Articles, are summarized below. Other changes which are of a minor, technical or clarifying nature have not been summarized but are visible on the marked copy of the proposed New Articles which is available at
www.indivior.com/en/investors/shareholder-information. In relation to the changes made, the Company believes that they reflect corporate governance market practices for Englishincorporated companies with a primary listing in the U.S. and a secondary listing in the U.K. In all cases we believe the changes are in the best interests of shareholders. The remaining provisions of the Existing Articles remain mostly unchanged.
The New Articles provide the Company with additional flexibility in relation to the procedures for, and conduct of, general meetings of shareholders, including, but not limited to, the ability to hold general meetings by means of an electronic facility or facilities and the flexibility to change the place or time of the general meeting by means of a notice on the Company's website (instead of publication in at least two national newspapers as required under the Existing Articles).
The New Articles also introduce security arrangements and expressly clarify the method of voting for general meetings held by means of an electronic facility or facilities.
These changes have been introduced to align with U.S. practice, as well as technological advances and evolving best practices.
In line with U.S. practice and without prejudice to any shareholder's rights under the U.K. Companies Act 2006, the New Articles provide that shareholders must comply with certain requirements, including advance notice, procedures to be followed and information requirements, in order to call a general meeting for the purpose of bringing a resolution before the general meeting or to give notice of a resolution to be proposed at an annual general meeting, including any nominees for election to the Board ("Shareholder Proposals").
In the case of annual general meetings, to be timely, a shareholder's notice must be delivered to the Company Secretary at the registered office of the Company not earlier than the close of business on the 120th calendar day, nor later than the close of business on the 90th calendar day, prior to the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year's annual general meeting, provided that if the date of the annual general meeting is more than 30 calendar days before or more than 60 calendar days after such anniversary date, notice by the member must be so delivered in writing not earlier than the close of business on the 120th calendar day prior to such annual general meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of (i) the 90th calendar day prior to such annual general meeting;
and (ii) the 10th calendar day after the day on which public announcement of the date of such annual general meeting is first made by the Company.
The Company believes that the provisions in the New Articles relating to procedures for Shareholder Proposals enhance disclosure requirements with respect to nominating shareholders, as well as proposed nominees for election to the Board, and clarify timing, logistics and manner of delivery requirements for Shareholder Proposals. In addition, the Company believes that they will give the Board the time and information needed to consider Shareholder Proposals, to inform the Company's shareholders, and, if appropriate, to give its recommendations on the Shareholder Proposals to shareholders.
The New Articles revise Director rotation requirements by clarifying that all Directors are required to be re-appointed at every annual general meeting.
Consistent with the practice of U.S. companies, the New Articles also remove the alternate Director and Directors' fees provisions and amend the ability for Directors to call Director meetings, such that only the Chair, Lead Independent Director (if any), Chief Executive Officer or majority of the Directors can call meetings.
The New Articles revise the period after which the Company can sell shares belonging to untraced shareholders and unclaimed dividends will be forfeited to 10 years and 6 years respectively, subject to compliance with other applicable requirements retained from the Existing Articles.
Article 135 of the Existing Articles was included to help facilitate the Company's initial listing in the U.S. These provisions are no longer relevant as the Company now maintains its Primary Listing in the U.S. and are accordingly removed in the New Articles.
The New Articles also replace references to the London Stock Exchange with references to the Nasdaq Stock Market to reflect the movement of the Company's primary listing to the latter exchange.
New definitions have been added to reflect new defined terms used in the New Articles and several definitions have been removed where those terms are no longer used in the New Articles.
