Amendment No. 1 to STERIS plc Management Incentive Compensation Plan

Summary

This amendment updates the STERIS plc Management Incentive Compensation Plan, which provides bonuses to selected key employees, typically managers and above. The amendment clarifies that only employees who remain with the company through the end of the fiscal year (and, for certain international employees, until the bonus payment date) are eligible for bonuses, unless otherwise decided by company leadership. All other terms of the plan remain unchanged.
