DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES

This Post-Effective Amendment relates to the following Registration Statements on Form S-8 (each, a "Registration Statement" and, collectively, the "Registration Statements"), previously filed by Nabriva Therapeutics plc (the "Company"), with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”):

The Company is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement No. 333-208097 and Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 to Registration Statement Nos. 333-222003, 333-226330, 333-228094, 333-230216, 333-240178, 333-254157 and 333-260927 to withdraw and remove from registration any and all Ordinary Shares that remain unsold or otherwise unissued under the Registration Statements.

On January 9, 2023, after an assessment of the Company’s strategic options, the Company’s board of directors approved a plan to preserve the Company’s cash to adequately fund an orderly wind down of the Company’s operations (the “Cash Preservation Plan”). As part of the Cash Preservation Plan, the Company has terminated all of the Company’s employees.

In connection with the Cash Preservation Plan, the Company has terminated any and all offerings of its securities pursuant to its existing registration statements under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including the Registration Statements. In accordance with undertakings made by the Company in the Registration Statements to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any securities that had been registered for issuance that remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby removes and withdraws from registration all securities of the Company registered pursuant to the Registration Statements that remain unsold as of the date hereof. Each Registration Statement is hereby amended, as appropriate, to reflect the deregistration of such securities, and the Company hereby terminates the effectiveness of the Registration Statements.
