Recitals

(A) The participation of the management and key employees in the long-term economic risks and opportunities of the relevant business operation is an important component of an internationally competitive remuneration system in order to strengthen the commitment to Jumia, to attract and retain competent and dedicated individuals whose efforts will result in the growth and profitability of Jumia and to align their interests with the interests of the shareholders in order to increase the value of Jumia.

(B) For this purpose, Jumia Technologies AG (the “Company”) intends to implement a stock option program (the “JSOP 2020”) to grant stock options to members of the management board of the Company (the “Management Board”) and key employees of the Company as well as to members of the management and key employees of companies affiliated with the Company within the meaning of §§ 15 et seq. of the German Stock Corporation Act (Aktiengesetz, the “AktG”) (each an “Affiliated Company” and together the “Affiliated Companies”). The JSOP 2020 shall entitle each of the beneficiaries to acquire a specified number of ordinary bearer shares with no-par value (auf den Inhaber lautende Stammstückaktien) of the Company with a pro rata amount in the share capital of the Company of EUR 1.00 per share (each a “Share” and together the “Shares”).

(C) With resolution dated 09 June 2020 (the “JSOP Resolution”) the Company’s general meeting (Hauptversammlung) authorized the Management Board and – with respect to the members of the Management Board – the supervisory board of the Company (the “Supervisory Board”) to grant in total 3,700,000 stock options (each a “Stock Option” and together the “Stock Options”) to the beneficiaries. The same general meeting also created a conditional capital (bedingtes Kapital) of up to EUR 3,700,000.00 (the “Conditional Capital 2020/I”) in order to fund the Stock Options. The general meeting has authorized the Management Board, and with respect to members of the Management Board the Supervisory Board, to determine the further details of the JSOP 2020, in particular concerning the grant of Stock Options and the relevant terms and conditions in accordance with the parameters set forth in the JSOP Resolution.

(D) These terms and conditions (the “Rules”) establish the rules pursuant to which the Stock Options under the JSOP 2020 can be granted and exercised.

Page 3/16

§ 1

Eligibility

(1) Under the JSOP 2020, notwithstanding §2 (1), Stock Options may be granted only to the following groups of beneficiaries:

(a) members of the Management Board (“Group 1”);

(b) selected employees of the Company (“Group 2”);

(c) members of the management of Affiliated Companies (“Group 3”); and

(d) selected employees of Affiliated Companies (“Group 4”).

Each beneficiary, who is not a member of the Management Board (each member of the Management Board an “MB” and collectively the “MBs”) or the management of an Affiliated Company, must be considered by the Management Board – in its sole discretion – a key expert (independent of a grade).

(2) The Management Board, and with respect to MBs the Supervisory Board, will – in its sole discretion – designate the individuals to whom Stock Options under the JSOP 2020 will be granted (the “Participants” and each a “Participant”) as well as the amount of Stock Options to be granted to the respective Participant.

§ 2

Plan Volume and Grant of Stock Options

(1) The aggregate number of Stock Options which may be granted under the JSOP 2020 is 3,700,000, subject to adjustment and substitution as set forth in §13. The aggregate number of Stock Options may be allocated to the groups of beneficiaries as follows:

(a) Group 1 shall receive up to 1,600,000 Stock Options;

(b) Group 2 shall receive no Stock Options;

(c) Group 3 shall receive up to 1,500,000 Stock Options; and

(d) Group 4 shall receive 600,000 Stock Options.

Participants that belong to several groups of beneficiaries as set out in § 1 (1) shall be granted Stock Options only with respect to their belonging to one of the groups of beneficiaries and only from the number of Stock Options allocated to the respective group of beneficiaries as set forth in the foregoing sentence. The Management Board, and with respect to MBs the Supervisory Board, will – in its sole discretion – decide the attribution of such Participant to the respective group of beneficiaries.

(2) The Stock Options will be granted to each Participant by a separate grant agreement (Zuteilungsvereinbarung). The grant agreement shall typically include an individual grant amount and the allocated number of Stock Options. Any grant of Stock Options is subject to a continuing and unterminated (ungekündigt) service or employment relationship between the relevant Participant and the Company or an Affiliated Company at the relevant Grant Date (as defined under § 2 (3) below). The number of Stock Options granted to a Participant shall typically be determined by dividing the individual grant amount by the Average Share Price. “Average Share Price” means an amount equal to the average of the closing price (Schlusskurs) of the Shares (as represented by ADSs) of the Company on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) (or a comparable successor system) on the sixty (60) consecutive Trading Days prior to the Grant Date. “Trading Day” means

Page 4/16

a day other than a Saturday or Sunday or public holiday on which NYSE is open for trading. For the avoidance of doubt, there shall be no fractional Stock Options. In case the division of the individual grant amount by the Average Share Price results in fractional Stock Options, the number of offered Stock Options shall, in any case, be rounded down to the next full number of Stock Options without compensation.

(3) Stock Options may be granted, subject to the registration of the Conditional Capital 2020 in the German commercial register (Handelsregister), to the Participants in one or more tranches:

(a) within three (3) weeks after the publication by the Company of a quarterly financial report, half year financial report or press release announcing the annual financial results but in no event may a grant be made during a Black-Out Period, and

(b) no later than 31 December 2023

whereby both conditions (a) and (b) have to be fulfilled.

Participants who for the first time enter into a service or employment agreement with the Company or an Affiliated Company can, at the time of signing of the service or employment agreement, be promised a grant of Stock Options during one of the aforementioned grant periods at a later point in time.

The date on which a grant becomes effective, which shall be the date of the signing of the relevant grant agreement or a later effective date specified therein, is referred to as the “Grant Date”.

(4) Subject to (i) a forfeiture or a reduction of the number of Stock Options pursuant to § 6 and/or § 11 below and (ii) to the satisfaction of the terms and conditions set forth in these Rules, each Stock Option granted under the JSOP 2020 entitles the Participant holding such Stock Option to acquire one (1) Share in the Company against payment of the Exercise Price (§ 3).

(5) In fulfilment of the Stock Options, the Company, represented by the Management Board (and with respect to MBs by the Supervisory Board), may, at its sole discretion:

(a) deliver the number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Options are being exercised (the “Exercise Shares”) out of the Conditional Capital 2020/I or from treasury shares or from a combination of both, to the depositary of the Company (from time to time) (the “Depositary”) and the Depositary shall be instructed to deliver to the Participant ADS representing an ownership interest in such Exercise Shares and cause the ADS (to the extent not already on deposit) to be included in the book entry transfer system managed by The Depository Trust Company and to be credited to the securities account of the Participant with The Depositary Trust Company or directly or indirectly a participant thereof. Upon such ADSs being so credited, the Exercise Shares shall be considered to have been issued by the Company to the Participant without any further action being required (such procedure the “Issuance”); and/or

(b) instead of the delivery of all or some of the Exercise Shares make a cash payment to the Participant in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the product of the closing price (Schlusskurs) of the ADS on the New York Stock Exchange (or a comparable successor system) multiplied by the number of ADS representing an ownership interest in one Exercise Share (if applicable) (the “Relevant Closing Price”) on the day of receipt of the Exercise Notice (as defined under § 8(1) below) by the Company multiplied by the aggregate number of Exercised Shares to be settled in cash over (ii) the Exercise Price (§ 3) multiplied by the aggregate number of Exercise Shares to be settled in cash or, in case the Participant has already paid to the Company the Exercise Price for all Exercise Shares to be settled in cash, EUR 0.

Page 5/16

§ 3

Exercise Price

The price at which one (1) Share may be issued upon exercise of one (1) Stock Option (the “Exercise Price”) is the Average Share Price on the sixty (60) consecutive Trading Days prior to the Grant Date as adjusted pursuant to § 13 below. However, the Exercise Price may not be lower than EUR 1.00.

§ 4

Exercise Conditions

Any exercise of the Stock Options requires satisfaction of all of the following conditions (the “Exercise Conditions”):

(a) the Performance Target (§ 5) has been reached;

(b) the relevant Stock Options have vested (§ 6 (2));

(c) the applicable Waiting Period (§ 7(1)) has expired;

(d) an Exercise Period (§ 7 (2)) has started and not yet ended;

(e) the exercise has not been temporarily suspended in accordance with§ 17 (2); and

(f) the Expiry Date (§ 10 (1)) for the Stock Options to be exercised has not passed.

§ 5

Performance Target

(1) For purposes of this § 5:

(a) “GMV” means Gross Merchandise Volume; and

(b) “Jumia Group” means the Company and any company included in the consolidated financial statements (Konzernabschluss) of the Company at the relevant point in time.

(2) Stock Options may only be exercised if at least the following criteria is met:

The average annual growth rate (previous business year compared to current business year) of the GMV of Jumia Group amounts to at least 10 % during the four years of the Waiting Period (§ 7 (1)), i.e. individual years may show a higher or lower growth rate as long as the four-year-average annual growth rate is at least 10% (the “Minimum Performance Target”).

(3) The Management Board is entitled, with the prior approval of the Compensation Committee of the Supervisory Board, and in the absence of a Compensation Committee, the Supervisory Board, to determine – in addition to the Minimum Performance Target – one or more additional performance targets (e.g. certain relevant benchmarks such as growth, profitability and/or KPI targets) for each grant of Stock Options to Participants (the “Additional Performance Targets”; Minimum Performance Target and Additional Performance Targets each also a “Performance Target”). With respect to MBs the Supervisory Board is entitled – in its sole discretion – to determine Additional Performance Targets for each grant of Stock Options to Participants.

(4) If the Performance Target is not achieved by the end of the Waiting Period(§ 7 (1)), all Stock Options granted shall forfeit completely without any further consideration.

Page 6/16

§ 6

Vesting

(1) For the purpose of this § 6, “Scheduled Vesting Date” means the date on which the Stock Options will vest pursuant to § 6 (2).

(2) Subject to § 6 (4) and § 6 (5) and § 11 of these Rules, the Stock Options granted to a Participant will vest and – subject to the fulfilment of the further Exercise Conditions – become exercisable in accordance with a vesting schedule in accordance with § 6 (3) and subject to the following minimum conditions:

(a) For every tranche, the vesting schedule shall provide for a cliff of two (2) years after the Grant Date after which two-thirds of the granted Stock Options shall vest; and

(b) All remaining Stock Options of a tranche shall vest after a time period of three years.

(3) Subject to the minimum conditions pursuant to § 6 (2) and with the prior approval of the Compensation Committee of the Supervisory Board, and in the absence of a Compensation Committee, the Supervisory Board, the Management Board will determine relevant criteria for the vesting schedule and may, inter alia, determine certain operational or other performance criteria (e.g. certain relevant benchmarks such as growth, profitability and/or KPI targets) or time criteria for such vesting schedule and will also take into account the overall pool of Stock Options remaining available. The Management Board shall decide – in its sole discretion – on each specific grant of Stock Options to Participants within the limits set by the prior approval of the Compensation Committee of the Supervisory Board or the Supervisory Board (as applicable) – always subject to the minimum conditions pursuant to § 6 (2). With respect to MBs, the Supervisory Board shall – in its sole discretion – determine such vesting schedule for each grant of Stock Options to Participants subject to the minimum conditions pursuant to § 6 (2).

(4) Any uninterrupted period during which the employment relationship of the respective Participant with the Company has been suspended (ruhendes Arbeitsverhältnis) without entitlement to continued remuneration (ohne Entgeltfortzahlung) (the “Suspension”) due to e.g. sickness, parental leave, nursing care (Pflegezeit), military service, sabbatical, unpaid leave of absence or comparable grounds shall suspend the vesting of Stock Options. For the avoidance of doubt, after the end of a Suspension and subject to § 6 (5) and § 11 of these Rules, any unvested Stock Options will continue to vest in accordance with a later vesting schedule adjusted to reflect the period of the Suspension.

(5) If after a grant a Participant reduces on his or her own initiative his or her contractual working time (vertragliche Arbeitszeit) (compared to the working time as per the relevant Grant Date), the number of Stock Options vesting on each of the Scheduled Vesting Dates following this reduction shall be reduced in proportion to the reduction of the contractual working time. For the avoidance of doubt, the number of vesting Stock Options shall be reduced pursuant to sentence 1 only for the time period during which the contractual working time is reduced. Any Stock Options that will not vest in accordance with the previous sentence will be forfeited without entitlement to compensation.

§ 7

Waiting Period and Exercise Period

(1) The waiting period after which the Stock Options may first be exercised is four (4) years commencing on the Grant Date (the “Waiting Period”).

Page 7/16

(2) Subject to § 5 and after the expiry of the Waiting Period, all vested Stock Options may be exercised only

(a) within a period of two (2) years following the expiry of the waiting period; and

(b) within three (3) weeks after the publication by the Company of a quarterly financial report, half year financial report or press release announcing the annual financial results but in no event during a Black-Out Period

(each an “Exercise Period”). Any exercise of Stock Options must be conducted in compliance with all applicable Insider Trading Rules (as defined in § 17 (1) below) and not during a Black-Our Period as described in the Company’s Insider Trading Policy.

§ 8

Exercise Notice

(1) Subject to the fulfilment of the Exercise Conditions, the Participant may exercise all or part of his or her Stock Options in writing or by email or by other electronic exercise procedure via any third-party plan administrator’s website (the “Exercise Notice”). The Exercise Notice should be addressed to:

(a) in case of an MB: the chairperson (Vorsitzender) of the Supervisory Board; and

(b) in any other case: the Management Board (Vorstand)

It has to state the number of Stock Options that are exercised and the number of Shares to be delivered by Issuance (see § 2 (5) (a) above) following the exercise. With receipt of the Exercise Notice the Company initiates the Issuance for the number of Shares for which Stock Options are exercised.

(2) The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by sufficient funds for the Exercise Price and further expenses payable in respect of the number of exercised Stock Options and by sufficient funds for the estimated payroll taxes and employee social security contributions (if any) due and to be withheld on exercise by the Company, or any similar taxes and duties. The Shares will not be transferred to the Participant or the Depositary (as applicable) until full payment of the Exercise Price including taxes and social security contributions if and to the extent applicable.

§ 9

Extraordinary Events or Developments

(1) For purposes of this § 9, “Extraordinary Events or Developments” means – always subject to mandatory law – situations where the potential gain realized by the Participant upon the exercise of Stock Options (i) is caused by unusual external events and developments and (ii) cannot be reasonably justified under any circumstances by the development or business perspective of the Company, also taking into account international remuneration and incentive standards. For the avoidance of doubt, the exercise of Stock Options by the Participant, as such, that results in an economic benefit for the Participant, does not constitute an Extraordinary Event or Development.

(2) In case of Extraordinary Events or Developments, the Management Board, and with respect to MBs the Supervisory Board, is entitled to adjust upon receipt of an Exercise Notice by the Company in its discretion (pflichtgemäßes Ermessen) the payout, in order to adequately limit (begrenzen) or eliminate, as the case may be, the effects of such Extraordinary Events or Developments. For the avoidance of doubt, such adjustment shall not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the Participant’s economic benefit achieved under the JSOP 2020 prior to the occurrence of such Extraordinary Events or Developments. In any such case, § 87 (1) AktG must be observed.

Page 8/16

§ 10

Expiry Date of the Stock Options

(1) All unexercised Stock Options will expire without compensation after two (2) consecutive years following the expiration of the Waiting Period (the “Expiry Date”).

(2) Notwithstanding anything contained in these Rules, in no case will a Stock Option be exercisable later than the Expiry Date provided, however, that if the term of a Stock Option expires during a Black-Out Period (§ 17 (2)) or within ten (10) Trading Days after the date on which the Black-Out Period ends, then the term of such Stock Option will be extended to the date on which the next Exercise Period after the expiry of Black-Out Period ends. “Trading Day” means a day other than a Saturday or Sunday or public holiday on which the stock exchange where the Shares/ADS are listed is open for trading.

§ 11

Consequences of a Termination or Transition of Employment Relationship or of an Irrevocable Release

(1) The Stock Options granted to a Participant will irrevocably cease to vest, and all of the unvested Stock Options will be forfeited without entitlement to compensation, at the date (the “Cancelation Date”) upon which one or more of the events specified under § 11 (1) (a) to § 11 (1) (d) (each a “Cancelation Event”) occur:

(a) whatever event is the earliest: (i) a notice of termination of the service or employment relationship by the Company or an Affiliated Company (as the case may be) or by the respective Participant is received by the other party, (ii) a termination agreement between the Company or an Affiliated Company (as the case may be) on the one side and the respective Participant on the other side is signed by both parties (unless a different date is agreed upon in such agreement, in which case such date shall be the Cancelation Date) or (iii) the service employment relationship has ended. This § 11 (1) (a) shall not apply if the employment relationship is, without any interruption, continued between the respective Participant and an Affiliated Company or the Company, as the case may be;

(b) transition of the employment relationship to a new employing entity which is not an Affiliated Company or the Company, as the case may be, such transition resulting from a transfer of business (Betriebs- oder Betriebsteilübergang), or the company at which the relevant Participant is employed ceases to be an Affiliated Company;

(c) the respective Participant is irrevocably released (unwiderruflich freigestellt) from his or her obligation to work; and/or

(d) notwithstanding § 11 (1) (a), the respective Participant has ceased holding his or her office as member of the Management Board of the Company.

(2) If a Cancelation Event occurs and:

(a) the relevant Participant’s service or employment relationship with the Company or an Affiliated Company (as the case may be) ends due to:

(i) in case of an MB: the Participant’s voluntary resignation from office (Amtsniederlegung) prior to the regular end of his or her term of office and the Participant taking up employment with or assuming an active management position or a remunerated consultant role with a direct competitor within six (6) months after the resignation; or

Page 9/16

(ii) in case of an MB: a revocation from office (Widerruf der Bestellung) by the Company in circumstances where there are grounds justifying a termination of the service relationship for good cause within the meaning of § 626 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch – “BGB”) irrespective of the preclusion period pursuant to § 626 (2) BGB; or

(iii) in case of Participants not being an MB: a termination for good cause of the employment contract (außerordentliche Kündigung) by the Company or an Affiliated Company (as the case may be) within the meaning of § 626 BGB (or the equivalent provision of applicable foreign law);

(such Participant a “Bad Leaver”) all unexercised Stock Options granted to the Bad Leaver (whether held by him/her or any third party) will be forfeited without entitlement to compensation;

(b) the relevant Participant does not qualify as a Bad Leaver (such Participant a “Good Leaver”), such Good Leaver will retain all of the unexercised Stock Options which have vested in accordance with § 6 and § 11 (1) until the Cancelation Date. The terms and conditions set forth in these Rules (Waiting Period, Performance Target, Exercise Conditions etc.) will continue to apply unchanged to the Stock Options retained by the Good Leaver pursuant to this § 11 (2) (b).

(3) Subject to § 11 (4), any Exercise Shares and ADS delivered by an Issuance (§ 2 (5) (a)) and any cash settlement payments made by the Company pursuant to § 2 (5) (b) upon exercise of Stock Options prior to the Termination Date shall remain unaffected by the forfeiture of Stock Options pursuant to § 11 (1) or § 11 (2) (a) (no “claw-back”).

(4) The Management Board, and with respect to MBs the Supervisory Board, may agree with the relevant Participant in the respective grant agreement that a violation of a contractual and/or post-contractual non-compete obligation which has been, or will be agreed, with the relevant Participant will result in a forfeiture of the Stock Options granted to the relevant Participant and claw-back of already exercised Stock Options.

§ 12

Transferability

Except for the transfer (i) by will or applicable laws of decent upon the death of the relevant Participant or (ii) with the prior written consent by the Management Board and with respect to MBs by the Supervisory Board, neither the Stock Options nor the rights of any Participant under any Stock Option or under the JSOP 2020 are assignable or otherwise transferable.

§ 13

Adjustment in Case of Specific Capital and Other Structural Measures

(1) For the purposes of this § 13 “Adjustment Event” means any capital measures (Kapitalmaßnahmen) and/or other structural measures (Strukturmaßnahmen) carried out by the Company, including capital increase, capital reduction, share split, reverse share split, merger, split-up, split-off, spin-off, issuance of convertible bonds or option bonds.

(2) In the event of:

(a) a capital increase from Company funds by the issuance of new shares (Kapitalerhöhung aus Gesellschaftsmitteln);

Page 10/16

(b) a reduction in the number of Shares by merging Shares without capital reduction (reverse share split) or an increase in the number of Shares without capital increase (share split);

(c) a capital reduction (Kapitalherabsetzung) with a change in the total number of Shares issued by the Company; or

(d) any other Adjustment Event having an effect similar to any of the foregoing;

the Management Board, with respect to MBs the Supervisory Board, shall establish financial equality for the Participant in order to prevent that such Adjustment Event results in a dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the outstanding Stock Options. In such an Adjustment Event the financial equality shall preferably be established by adjusting the number of Stock Options (subject to available funding with Shares).

(3) For the avoidance of doubt, no adjustment pursuant to § 13 (2) shall occur in the event of:

(a) a capital increase from Company funds without the issue of new shares (Kapitalerhöhung aus Gesellschaftsmitteln ohne Ausgabe neuer Aktien); and

(b) a capital reduction without a change in the total number of Shares issued by the Company.

(4) If an adjustment occurs in accordance with this § 13, fractions of shares will not be granted on the exercise of Stock Options nor will they be compensated by a payment in cash.

(5) For the avoidance of doubt, § 9 (1) AktG applies mutatis mutandis to Stock Options which have been adjusted pursuant to this § 13.

§ 14

Change of Control

(1) For the purposes of this § 14:

(a) “Cancelation Request Date” means the day on which the Cancelation Request (as defined in § 14 (2) below) was sent (abgesendet) or received (zugegangen) (as the case may be) by the Management Board, and with respect to MBs by the Supervisory Board;

(b) “Change of Control” means (i) a transaction or series of related transactions in which a person or entity (other than a wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company) alone or acting in concert with other persons or entities acquires (y) a majority of the shares of the Company outstanding immediately prior to such transaction or series of related transactions or (z) all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; and (ii) a merger or another similar business combination transaction of the Company with or into another entity which is not a wholly-owned direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company having an effect similar to the events described under (i) (y) or (z) above;

(c) “Change of Control Date” means the day on which a Change of Control occurs; and

(d) “Relevant Share Price” means (i) if the Change of Control takes place as a result of a voluntary takeover offer, or a mandatory takeover offer is triggered by a Change of Control, the per Share price, respectively the price for one or more ADS representing in total an ownership interest in one Share, offered to the shareholders of the Company in such takeover offer and (ii) in any other case, the volume weighted average Relevant Closing Price on the 30 consecutive Trading Days prior to the Change of Control Date.

(2) In the event of a Change of Control,

Page 11/16

(a) the Management Board, with respect to MBs the Supervisory Board, (as constituted immediately prior to the Change of Control Date) in relation to the Participant; and

(b) each Participant in relation to his or her Stock Options

may request (the “Cancelation Request”) that a portion of the then-outstanding vested Stock Options which is equal to the portion of the Shares or assets (as the case may be) of the Company acquired in the relevant Change of Control event by the persons or entities acquiring control and all rights attached thereto shall be cancelled in exchange for a payment by the Company of an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the product of the Relevant Share Price multiplied by the number of Stock Options cancelled over (ii) the aggregate Exercise Price for all such cancelled Stock Options, but less any applicable taxes, social contributions or other required withholdings (the “Cancelation Consideration”). No Cancellation Request may be made to the extent the Participant is granted a tag along right by the shareholders of the Company permitting the Participant to sell a pro rata share of his or her vested Stock Options or – following an exercise thereof Exercise Shares respectively ADS, to the persons or entities acquiring control. The remaining vested Stock Options not subject to a Cancelation Request or sold based on a tag along right remain unaffected. With respect to some or all of the Stock Options which are not vested in accordance with § 6 (2) on the Change of Control Date the Management Board, and with respect to MBs the Supervisory Board, may in its sole discretion chose to grant the Participant another performance based compensation (including stock appreciation rights, phantom stocks or other stock options), which is economically equivalent to the relevant unvested Stock Options, which will then be cancelled in exchange.

(3) A Cancelation Request may be made at any time in the period beginning one (1) month prior to, and ending three (3) months after the Change of Control Date. For the avoidance of doubt, a Participant may not request the cancelation of Stock Options which are not vested in accordance with § 6 (2) on the Change of Control Date.

(4) The Cancelation Consideration shall be paid by the Company as soon as reasonably practicable, but in no event later than thirty (30) Trading Days following the Cancelation Request Date.

(b) warrant, assure or guarantee any increase in value of the Shares and/or the ADS, in particular it is neither warranted, assured or guaranteed that a Participant will be able to sell his or her participation in the Company with a profit in the future nor that no loss will be incurred; or

(c) warrant, assure or guarantee a profit of the Participant from the JSOP 2020 or any Stock Option granted thereunder.

§ 16

Taxes, Social Security and Costs

(1) All taxes (including payroll taxes), social security contributions, further duties and costs accrued by the Participant in connection with his or her participation in the JSOP 2020 shall be borne by each Participant. Each Participant is obliged to pay taxes relating to the respective options granted/exercised under the JSOP 2020, or relating to a transfer of such options by the Participant to a third party, to the competent tax authorities. Each Participant shall fully indemnify the Company in respect of all such liabilities and obligations against tax authorities.

(2) The employer of the Participant is entitled, if required by statutory law, to withhold payroll tax or any other taxes or duties or social security contributions to be paid by (or on behalf and account of) the Participant.

The Participant undertakes to fully co-operate with the Company.

(3) Withholdings mentioned above do not release the Participant from his or her responsibility and obligation to pay all taxes, social contributions, further duties and costs being due and accruing in connection with his or her participation in the JSOP 2020 or the grant, exercise or transfer of any Stock Options.

§ 17

Insider Trading, Black-Out Periods, Securities Law Requirements

(1) Any exercise of, or any other transaction in, the Stock Options (each a “Transaction”) must be conducted in compliance with (i) all applicable insider trading laws and regulations, and (ii) all provisions of any insider trading rules established by the Company, including the Company’s Insider Trading Policy ((i) and (ii) together the “Insider Trading Rules”). Each Participant is personally responsible for informing himself about, and acting in full compliance with, all applicable Insider Trading Rules. Any individual non-compliance with applicable Insider Trading Rules may lead to the imposition of civil and criminal penalties (as the case may be).

(2) In order to minimize the potential for prohibited insider trading, the Management Board, and with respect to MBs the Supervisory Board, may establish in its sole discretion periods from time to time during which the Participant may not engage in transactions involving the Stock Options and/or the Shares and/or the ADS (the “Black-Out Periods”). Notwithstanding any other provisions in these Rules, the Participant may not exercise any Stock Options during an applicable Black-Out Period.

(3) The obligation of the Company to issue any securities and to settle any awards under the JSOP 2020 shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by governmental agencies as may be required. Notwithstanding any terms or conditions of any grant to the contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to offer to sell or to sell, and shall be prohibited from offering to sell or selling, any securities unless such securities have been properly registered pursuant to the U.S. Securities Act or unless the Company is satisfied that such securities may be offered or sold without such registration pursuant to an available exemption therefrom and the terms and conditions of such exemption have been fully complied with. The Company shall be under no obligation to register for sale under the U.S. Securities Act any of the securities to be offered or sold under the JSOP 2020.

(4) The Company or the Third Party Service Provider (as defined below in § 19 (1)), as the case may be, may cancel a grant under the JSOP 2020 or any portion thereof if it determines, in its sole discretion, that legal or contractual restrictions and/or blockage and/or other market considerations would make the Company’s acquisition of securities from the public markets, the Company’s issuance of securities to the Participant, the Participant’s acquisition of securities from the Company and/or the Participant’s sale of securities to the public markets, illegal, impracticable or inadvisable. If the Company or the Third Party Service Provider, as the case may be, determines to cancel all or any portion of a grant in accordance with the foregoing, the Company shall pay to the Participant an amount equal to the excess of (A) the aggregate fair market value of the securities subject to such grant or portion thereof cancelled (determined as of the applicable exercise date, or the date that the securities would have been vested or delivered, as applicable), over (B) the aggregate Exercise Price or base amount or any amount payable as a condition of delivery of securities. Such amount shall be delivered to the Participant as soon as practicable following the cancellation of such grant or portion thereof.

(5) Notwithstanding any provision of the JSOP 2020 to the contrary, in no event shall a Participant be permitted to exercise a Stock Option in a manner that the Company or the Third Party Service Provider, as the case may be, determines would violate the United States Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, or any other applicable law or the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission or the applicable rules and regulations of any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the securities of the Company are listed or traded.
