5 Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement (2023) The Option is not earned and the Employee has no right to purchase the underlying Shares until an event described above occurs. The vesting described above is cumulative, so that at each vesting date an additional amount of Shares is available for purchase and remains available until the Option’s Expiration Date or such earlier date determined pursuant to Section 5 or 7 below. 4. Exercise of the Option. To the extent vested, the Option may be exercised in whole or in part as follows: (a) Who May Hold/Exercise the Option. (i) General Rule - Exercise by Employee Only. During the lifetime of the Employee, the Option may be exercised only by the Employee or the Employee’s Representative. (ii) Death Exception. If the Employee dies, then the Option may be exercised only by the executor or administrator of the estate of the Employee or the person or persons to whom rights under the Option have passed by will or the laws of descent or distribution. Such person(s) shall furnish the appropriate tax clearances, proof of the right of such person(s) to exercise the Option, and other pertinent data as the Company may deem necessary. (iii) Transferability. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee or its delegate, the Option is not transferable other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. It may not be assigned, transferred (except by will or the laws of descent and distribution), pledged or hypothecated in any way, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and shall not be subject to execution, attachment, or similar process. Any attempt at assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation, or other disposition of the Option contrary to the provisions hereof, and the levy of any attachment or similar process upon such Option, shall be null and void. (b) Method of Exercise. Subject to the requirements of local law, the Option may be exercised only by: (i) delivery to the designated employee or agent of the Company of a written, electronic, or telephonic notice of exercise, specifying the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is then being exercised, and payment of the full Exercise Price of the Shares being purchased in cash or with other Shares held by the Employee having a then Fair Market Value equal to the Exercise Price; (ii) delivery of a properly-executed exercise notice together with a copy of irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale or loan proceeds to pay the Exercise Price; (iii) a combination of (i) and (ii) above; or

6 Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement (2023) (iv) any other manner approved by the Committee from time to time. Each method of exercise requires payment of the full amount of any U.S. and non- U.S. federal, state, local or other applicable taxes which the Company believes are required to be withheld and paid with respect to such exercise, as described below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may require payment in a particular or different method of exercise than those methods specified in Section 4(b)(i) - (iii), may allow the Employee to exercise the Option only by means of a cashless exercise (either a cashless “sell all” exercise or a cashless “sell- to-cover” exercise) as it shall determine in its sole discretion, or may require the Employee to sell any Shares the Employee acquired under the Program immediately or within a specified period following the Employee’s Termination (in which case, this Agreement shall give the Company the authority to issue sales instructions on the Employee’s behalf). (c) Payment of Taxes. To the extent permitted under applicable law and by the Company, the Employee may satisfy any U.S. or non-U.S. federal, state, local or other applicable taxes arising from any transaction related to the exercise of the Option pursuant to this Agreement by: (i) tendering a cash payment; (ii) having the Company withhold Shares from the Option exercised to satisfy the applicable withholding tax; (iii) tendering Shares received in connection with the Option back to the Company; or (iv) delivering other previously acquired Shares having a Fair Market Value approximately equal to the amount to be withheld. The Company shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold from the Shares transferable to the Employee upon any exercise of the Option or (to the extent permitted by applicable law, including without limitation Code Section 409A) from any other compensation or other amount owing to the Employee such amount as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company to satisfy all such tax and withholding obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Employee is subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, the Company will withhold using the method described in subsection 4(c)(ii) above unless the use of such withholding method is problematic under applicable laws or has materially adverse accounting consequences, in which case the Committee shall determine which of the other methods described in this subsection 4(c) or in the Program shall be used to satisfy the applicable withholding obligations.

7 Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement (2023) 5. Effect of Termination or Death on the Option. By accepting this Option grant, the Employee acknowledges that, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, in the event of Termination (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), the Employee’s right to vest in the Option under the Program, if any, will cease and will not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment does not include a period of “garden leave” or similar period pursuant to local law) and that the Company shall have the exclusive discretion to determine Termination occurs. (a) Termination due to Retirement. Subject to Section 7 below, in the event of Termination due to Retirement, then (regardless of any subsequent death of the Employee) the Option will continue to vest pursuant to Section 3, and the last date on which the Option may be exercised is the day prior to the Expiration Date. (b) Termination due to Disability. Subject to Section 7 below, in the event of Termination due to Disability, then (regardless of any subsequent death of the Employee) the Option will continue to vest pursuant to Section 3, and the last date on which the Option may be exercised is the day prior to the Expiration Date. (c) Termination due to Death of the Employee. In the event of the death of the Employee during employment, the Option will continue to vest pursuant to Section 3, and the last date on which the Option may be exercised is the day prior to the Expiration Date. (d) Termination for Reason Other than under Subsection 5(a), (b), or (c) or Section 6. (i) Options Granted Within Nine Months of Termination. Any Option granted less than nine months prior to a Termination for any reason other than those set forth in subsections 5(a), (b) or (c) or Section 6 shall be cancelled and forfeited immediately upon such Termination. (ii) Options Granted Nine Months or More Prior to Termination. Subject to Section 7 below, an Option granted nine months or more prior to a Termination for any reason other than those set forth in subsections 5(a), (b) or (c) or Section 6 will continue to vest and shall be exercisable to the extent permitted by Section 3 for a three-month period after the Employee’s effective date of Termination, but in no event shall such Option be exercised on or after the Expiration Date. In the event of the death of the Employee during the three-month period after the Employee’s effective date of Termination, the Option shall continue to vest and be exercisable for a three-month period measured from the date of death, but in no event shall such Option be exercised on or after the Expiration Date. 6. Change in Control. In the event of a Change in Control, the entity surviving such Change in Control or the ultimate parent thereof (referred to herein as the “Surviving Entity”) may assume, convert or replace this Option with an award of at least equal value and terms and conditions not less favorable than the terms and conditions provided in this Agreement, in

8 Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement (2023) which case the new award will vest according to the terms of the applicable award agreement. If the Surviving Entity does not assume, convert or replace this Option, the Option shall vest on the date of the Change in Control. If the Surviving Entity does assume, convert or replace this Option, then in the event the Employee’s Termination (a) occurs within the time period beginning six months immediately before a Change in Control and ending two years immediately following such Change in Control, and (b) was initiated by the Company (or the Surviving Entity) for a reason other than Cause or was initiated by the Employee for Good Reason, the Option will become fully vested and exercisable as of the later of the date of the Change in Control and the date of the Employee’s Termination. The provisions of this Section 6 shall supersede Section 13(a)(i) of the Program. 7. Effect of Certain Bad Acts. The Option shall be cancelled and forfeited immediately if, in the sole opinion and discretion of the Committee or its delegate, the Employee: (a) commits a material breach of the terms and conditions of the Employee’s employment, including, but not limited to: (i) material breach by the Employee of the Code of Business Conduct; (ii) material breach by the Employee of the Employee’s Employee Agreement or employment contract, if any; (iii) commission by the Employee of an act of fraud, embezzlement or theft in connection with the Employee’s duties or in the course of the Employee’s employment; (iv) wrongful disclosure by the Employee of secret processes or confidential information of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (v) failure by the Employee to substantially perform the duties of the Employee’s employment (other than any such failure resulting from the Employee’s Disability); or (b) to the extent permitted by applicable law, engagement by the Employee, directly or indirectly, for the benefit of the Employee or others, in any activity, employment or business which is competitive with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries. 8. No Right to Continued Employment. This Agreement and the Employee’s participation in the Program do not and shall not be interpreted to: (a) form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or its Subsidiaries; (b) confer upon the Employee any right to continue in the employ of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; or (c) interfere with the ability of the Company or its Subsidiaries to terminate the Employee’s employment at any time.

10 Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement (2023) (j) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be liable for any change in value of the Option, the amount realized upon exercise of the Option or the amount realized upon a subsequent sale of any Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option, resulting from any fluctuation of the United States Dollar/local currency foreign exchange rate. 10. Data Privacy. (a) Pursuant to applicable personal data protection laws, the collection, processing and transfer of the Employee’s personal Data is necessary for the Company’s administration of the Program and the Employee’s participation in the Program. The Employee’s denial and/or objection to the collection, processing and transfer of personal Data may affect his or her ability to participate in the Program. As such (where required under applicable law), the Employee: (i) voluntarily acknowledges, consents and agrees to the collection, use, processing and transfer of personal Data as described herein; and (ii) authorizes Data recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in electronic or other form, for purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Program, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Program and/or the subsequent holding of Shares on the Employee’s behalf to a broker or other third party with whom the Employee may elect to deposit any Shares acquired pursuant to the Program. (b) Data may be provided by the Employee or collected, where lawful, from third parties, and the Company and the Subsidiary that employs the Employee (if applicable) will process the Data for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Program. Data processing will take place through electronic and non-electronic means according to logics and procedures strictly correlated to the purposes for which the Data is collected and with confidentiality and security provisions as set forth by applicable laws and regulations in the Employee’s country of residence. Data processing operations will be performed minimizing the use of personal and identification data when such operations are unnecessary for the processing purposes sought. The Data will be accessible within the Company’s organization only by those persons requiring access for purposes of the implementation, administration and operation of the Program and for the Employee’s participation in the Program. (c) The Company and the Subsidiary that employs the Employee (if applicable) will transfer Data as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of the Employee’s participation in the Program, and the Company and the Subsidiary that employs the Employee (if applicable) may further transfer Data to any third parties assisting the Company in the implementation,

12 Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement (2023) (b) Regardless of any action the Company or its Subsidiaries take with respect to any or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax- related items related to the Employee’s participation in the Program and legally applicable to the Employee or deemed by the Company or its Subsidiaries to be an appropriate charge to the Employee even if technically due by the Company or its Subsidiaries (“Tax-Related Items”), the Employee acknowledges that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains the Employee’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or its Subsidiaries, if any. The Employee further acknowledges that the Company and/or its Subsidiaries: (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Option, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option, the issuance of Shares upon exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired pursuant to such issuance and the receipt of any dividends; and (ii) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate the Employee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. If the Employee has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, the Employee acknowledges that the Company and/or its Subsidiaries may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. If the Employee relocates to another country, the Company may establish special or alternative terms and conditions as necessary or advisable to comply with local laws, rules or regulations, to facilitate the operation and administration of the Option and the Program and/or to accommodate the Employee’s relocation. (c) The Employee acknowledges that, depending on the Employee’s or the broker’s country of residence or where the Shares are listed, the Employee may be subject to xxxxxxx xxxxxxx restrictions and/or market abuse laws which may affect his or her ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of Shares, rights to Shares (e.g., Options) or rights linked to the value of Shares during such times the Employee is considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined in the laws or regulations in his or her country. Local xxxxxxx xxxxxxx laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders the Employee placed before he or she possessed inside information. Furthermore, the Employee could be prohibited from (i) disclosing the inside information to any third party (other than on a “need to know” basis) and (ii) “tipping” third parties or causing them otherwise to buy or sell securities. The Employee understands that third parties may include fellow employees. Any restrictions under these laws or regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company xxxxxxx xxxxxxx policy. The Employee acknowledges that it is the Employee’s responsibility to comply with any restrictions and the Employee is advised to speak to his or her personal legal advisor on this matter.

If the Employee has received this Agreement or any other document related to the Program translated into a language other than English and if the meaning of the translated version is different than the English version, the English version will control. 24.

All defined terms contained in this Addendum shall have the same meaning as set forth in the Program. EUROPEAN UNION (“EU”) / EUROPEAN ECONOMIC AREA (“EEA”) COUNTRIES, SWITZERLAND AND THE UNITED KINGDOM Data Privacy. The following provision replaces Section 10 of the Agreement in its entirety: Pursuant to applicable personal data protection laws, the Employee is hereby notified of the following in relation to the Employee’s Personal Data (defined below) and the collection, processing and transfer in electronic or other form of such Personal Data in relation to the administration of the Program. The collection, processing and transfer of Personal Data is necessary for the legitimate purpose of the administration of the Program by the Company and the Subsidiary that employs the Employee and the Employee’s participation in the Program, and the Employee’s denial and/or objection to the collection, processing and transfer of Personal Data may affect his or her participation in the Program. As such, by participating in the Program, the Employee acknowledges the collection, use, processing and transfer of Personal Data as described herein. The Employee understands that the Company and the Subsidiary that employs the Employee may hold certain personally identifiable information about the Employee, specifically his or her name, home address, email address and telephone number, date of birth, social security, passport or other identification number (resident registration number), salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company or its Subsidiaries, details of all entitlements to Shares (or cash) granted, awarded, canceled, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Employee’s favor, for the purpose of managing and administering the Program (“Personal Data”). The Personal Data may be provided by the Employee or collected, where lawful, from third parties. The Company or the Subsidiary that employs the Employee each act as controllers of the Personal Data and will process the Personal Data in this context for the exclusive legitimate purpose of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Program and meeting related legal obligations associated with these actions. The processing will take place through electronic and non-electronic means according to logics and procedures correlated to the purposes for which the Personal Data was collected and with confidentiality and security provisions as set forth by applicable laws and regulations. Personal Data will be accessible within the Company’s organization only by those persons requiring access for purposes of the implementation, administration and operation of the Program and other aspects of the employment relationship and for the Employee’s participation in the Program. The Company and the Subsidiary that employs the Employee will transfer Personal Data amongst themselves and their affiliates as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of the Employee’s participation in the Program, and the Company and the Subsidiary that

employs the Employee may each further transfer Personal Data to third parties assisting the Company or the Subsidiary that employs the Employee in the implementation, administration and management of the Program, including E*TRADE Financial Corporate Services Inc. and its affiliates (“E*TRADE”) or any successor or other third party that the Company, the Subsidiary that employs the Employee or E*TRADE (or its successor) may engage to assist with the administration of the Program from time to time. These recipients may be located in the EU, EEA, Switzerland, the United Kingdom or elsewhere throughout the world, such as the United States. By participating in the Program, the Employee understand that these recipients may receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Personal Data, in electronic or other form, for purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Employee’s participation in the Program, including any requisite transfer of such Personal Data as may be required for the administration of the Program and/or the subsequent holding of Shares on the Employee’s behalf to a broker or other third party with whom the Employee may elect to deposit any Shares acquired pursuant to the Program. The Employee further understands that he or she may request a list with the names and addresses of any potential recipients of Personal Data by contacting the Employee’s local Human Resources manager or AbbVie’s Human Resources Department. When transferring Personal Data to these potential recipients, the Company and the Subsidiary that employs the Employee may provide appropriate safeguards in accordance with EU Standard Contractual Clauses, or other legally binding and permissible arrangements. The Employee may request a copy of such safeguards from the Employee’s local Human Resources manager or AbbVie’s Human Resources Department. To the extent provided by law, the Employee may, at any time, have the right to request: access to Personal Data, rectification of Personal Data, erasure of Personal Data, restriction of processing of Personal Data, and portability of Personal Data. The Employee may also have the right to object, on grounds related to a particular situation, to the processing of Personal Data, in any case without cost, by contacting in writing the Employee’s local Human Resources manager or AbbVie’s Human Resources Department. The Employee understands, however, that the only consequence of refusing to provide Personal Data is that the Company may not be able to grant the Option or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards. When the Company and the Subsidiary that employs the Employee no longer need to use Personal Data for the purposes above or do not need to retain it for compliance with any legal or regulatory purpose, each will take reasonable steps to remove Personal Data from their systems and/or records containing the Personal Data and/or take steps to properly anonymize it so that the Employee can no longer be identified from it. AUSTRALIA 1. Breach of Law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement or the Program, the Employee will not be entitled to, and shall not claim any benefit (including without limitation a legal right) under the Program if the provision of such benefit would give rise to a breach of Part 2D.2 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), any other provision of that Act, or any other applicable statute, rule or regulation which limits or restricts the giving of such benefits. 2. Australian ESS Offer Document. The grant of the Option is being made under Division 1A, Part 7.12 of the Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). Additional details and terms of the grant are set forth in the ESS Offer Document for the Offer of Stock Options to Australian Resident Employees, which can be accessed in the library section of the E*TRADE website at xxxxx://xx.xxxxxx.xxx/xxxxx-xxxxx. By accepting the Option, the Employee acknowledges and confirms that the Employee has reviewed the Australian ESS Offer Document. In the event of any inconsistency between the Agreement and the terms set forth in the ESS Offer Document, the terms in the ESS Offer Document will prevail.

The Employee understands and agrees that the repatriation of sales proceeds may need to be effected through a special exchange control account established by the Company or its Subsidiaries, and the Employee hereby consents and agrees that sales proceeds from the sale of Shares acquired under the Program may be transferred to such account by the Company on the Employee’s behalf prior to being delivered to the Employee. The sales proceeds may be paid to the Employee in U.S. dollars or local currency at the Company’s discretion. If the sales proceeds are paid to the Employee in U.S. dollars, the Employee understands that the Employee will be required to set up a U.S. dollar bank account in China so that the proceeds may be deposited into this account. If the sales proceeds are paid to the Employee in local currency, the Employee acknowledges that the Company is under no obligation to secure any particular exchange conversion rate and that the Company may face delays in converting the proceeds to local currency due to exchange control restrictions. The Employee agrees to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the Shares are sold and the net proceeds are converted into local currency and distributed to the Employee.

Warning This is an offer of an Option which, upon exercise and settlement in accordance with the terms of the Program and the Agreement, will be converted into Shares.

This information is designed to help investors make an informed decision. The usual rules do not apply to this offer because it is made under an employee share purchase scheme. As a result, you may not be given all the information usually required. You will also have fewer other legal protections for this investment. Ask questions, read all documents carefully, and seek independent financial advice before committing.

Prior to the exercise and settlement of the Option, you will not have any rights of ownership (e.g., voting or dividend rights) with respect to the underlying Shares.
