Explanation of Responses:
(1) On May 5, 2021, Jazz Pharmaceuticals Public Limited Company, a public limited company incorporated in the Republic of Ireland ("Jazz"), Jazz Pharmaceuticals UK Holdings Limited, a private limited company incorporated in England and Wales and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Jazz ("Bidco") and the DR Nominee (as defined in the Transaction Agreement) acquired all outstanding ordinary shares, par value British Pound Sterling 0.001 per share, of GW Pharmaceuticals plc, a public limited company incorporated in England and Wales (the "Company"), by means of a scheme of arrangement under Part 26 of the UK Companies Act 2006 (the "Scheme of Arrangement") (continued in footnote 2).
(2) At the effective time of the Scheme of Arrangement, Scheme Shareholders (as defined in the Scheme of Arrangement) became entitled to receive for each Scheme Share (as defined in the Scheme of Arrangement) held by them an amount equal to $16.66 2/3 in cash plus 0.010030 ordinary shares, nominal value $0.0001 per share, of Jazz ("Jazz ordinary shares").
