For purposes of compliance with the requirements of Code Section 409A, to the extent applicable, the specified date for payment of any Dividend Equivalents to which the Employee is entitled under this Section 2 is the calendar year during the term of this Agreement in which the associated dividends or distributions are paid on Shares underlying the Units. The Employee shall have no right to determine the year in which Dividend Equivalents will be paid. 3. Restrictions. The Units are subject to the forfeiture provisions in Sections 6 and 7 below. Units are not earned and may not be sold, exchanged, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of (collectively, the “Restrictions”) until the earliest to occur of the events described in subsections 4(a), (b), or (c) or Section 5. 4.

(c) Disability. The Restrictions shall lapse on the date of the Employee’s Disability, and the Units shall be settled in the form of Shares as soon as administratively possible after, and effective as of, the date of Disability. 5.

The provisions of this Section 5 shall supersede Section 13(a)(iii) and (v) of the Program. 6. Effect of Certain Bad Acts. Any Units not previously settled shall be cancelled and forfeited immediately if the Employee engages in activity that constitutes Cause, as determined in the sole opinion and discretion of the Committee or its delegate, whether or not the Employee experiences a Termination or remains employed with the Company or a Subsidiary. 7. Forfeiture of Units. In the event of the Employee’s Termination for any reason other than those set forth in subsection 4(b) or Section 5, any Units with respect to which Restrictions have not lapsed as of the date of Termination shall be forfeited without consideration to the Employee or the Employee’s Representative. In the event that the Employee is terminated by the Company other than for Cause and in a situation not covered by Section 5, the Company may, in its sole discretion, cause Restrictions on some or all of the Units not previously settled on a Delivery Date to lapse and be settled in the form of Shares on the Delivery Date set forth in subsection 4(a) above as if the Employee had remained employed on such date. In accepting this Award, the Employee acknowledges that in the event of Termination (whether or not in breach of local labor laws), the Employee’s right to vest in the Units, 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 when Termination occurs. 8. Withholding 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 the grant of the Award, the lapse of Restrictions or the delivery of Shares pursuant to this Agreement by: (a) tendering a cash payment; (b) having the Company withhold Shares from the Shares to be delivered to satisfy the applicable withholding tax; (c) tendering Shares received in connection with the Units back to the Company; or (d) delivering other previously acquired Shares having a Fair Market Value approximately equal to the amount to be withheld.

Retention RSU Agreement - Ratable Vesting (2023) 6 The Company shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold from the Shares deliverable to the Employee pursuant to this Agreement 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 taxes, requirements and withholding obligations. If the Company withholds for tax purposes from the Shares otherwise to be delivered to the Employee, the Employee is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares underlying the Units, subject to the Restrictions set forth in this Agreement. 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 8(b) 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 Section 8 or in the Program shall be used to satisfy the applicable withholding obligations. 9. 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.

If the Employee relocates to one of the countries or jurisdictions identified in this Addendum, the special terms and conditions for such country or jurisdiction will apply to the Employee, to the extent the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations or to facilitate the operation and administration of the Units and the Program (or the Company may establish alternative terms and conditions as may be necessary or advisable to accommodate the Employee’s relocation). 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 11 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 Units, 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. ALGERIA Settlement in Cash. Notwithstanding Section 4 of the Agreement or any other provision in the Agreement to the contrary, pursuant to Section 12 of the Agreement, the Units will be settled in the form of a cash payment, except as otherwise determined by the Company. ARGENTINA Securities Notification. Neither the Units nor the underlying Shares are publicly offered or listed on any stock exchange in Argentina. 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.Securities Notification. This offer of Units is being made under Division 1A Part 7.12 of the Australian Corporations Act 2001 (Cth). If the Employee offers Shares acquired under the Program for sale to a person or entity resident in Australia, the Employee’s offer may be subject to disclosure requirements under Australian law. The Employee should obtain legal advice on any disclosure obligations prior to making any such offer. 3. Tax Information. The Program is a program to which Subdivision 83A-C of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1997 (Cth) (the “Act”) applies (subject to the conditions in that Act). BAHRAIN Securities Notification. This Agreement does not constitute advertising or an offering of securities in Bahrain, nor does it constitute an allotment of securities in Bahrain. Any Shares issued pursuant to the Units under the Program shall be deposited into a brokerage account in the United States. In no event will Shares be issued or delivered in Bahrain. The issuance of Shares pursuant to the Units described herein has not and will not be registered in Bahrain and hence, the Shares described herein may not be admitted or used for offering, placement or public circulation in Bahrain. Accordingly, the Employee may not make any public advertising or announcements regarding the Units or Shares in Bahrain, promote these Shares to legal entities or individuals in Bahrain, or sell Shares directly to other legal entities or individuals in Bahrain. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that Shares may only be sold outside of Bahrain and on a stock exchange on which AbbVie is traded. BRAZIL Labor Law Acknowledgment. The Employee agrees, for all legal purposes, (i) the Benefits provided under the Agreement and the Program are the result of commercial transactions unrelated to the Employee’s employment; (ii) the Agreement and the Program are not a part of the terms and conditions of the Employee’s employment; and (iii) the income from the Units, if any, is not part of the Employee’s remuneration from employment. CANADA 1. Settlement in Shares. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, Addendum or the Program, the Employee’s Award shall be settled only in Shares (and may not be settled in cash). 2. Resale Restriction. The Employee is permitted to sell Shares acquired upon settlement of the Units through the designated broker appointed under the Program, provided the resale of Shares acquired under the Program takes place outside of Canada through the facilities of the stock exchange on which the Shares are listed. The Shares are currently listed on the New York Stock Exchange. 3. Nature of Grant. The following provision supplements Section 7 of the Agreement: For purposes of the Units, the Employee’s employment relationship will be considered terminated as of the date the Employee is no longer actually employed or otherwise rendering services to the Company or, if different, the Subsidiary for which the Employee provides services (regardless of the reason for such termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment or other laws or otherwise rendering services or the terms of the Employee’s Employee Agreement or other service agreement, if any). Unless otherwise extended pursuant to the terms of the Agreement or by the Company, the Employee’s right to vest in the Units, if any, will terminate as of such date (the “Termination Date”).

The Termination Date will not be extended by any common law notice period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, if applicable employment standards legislation specifically requires continued entitlement to vesting during a statutory notice period, the Employee’s right to vest in the Units, if any, will be allowed to continue for that minimum notice period but then immediately terminate effective as of the last day of the Employee’s minimum statutory notice period. In the event the date the Employee is no longer providing actual service cannot be reasonably determined under the terms of this Agreement and/or the Program, the Committee or its delegate shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when the Employee is no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Units (including whether the Employee may still be considered to be providing services while on a leave of absence). Unless otherwise provided in the Agreement or by the Company, any portion of the Units that is not vested on the Termination Date shall terminate immediately and be null and void. Unless the applicable employment standards legislation specifically requires, in the case of the Employee, the Employee will not earn or be entitled to any pro-rated vesting for that portion of time before the date on which his or her employment relationship is terminated (as determined under this provision) nor will the Employee be entitled to any compensation for lost vesting. CHILE Private Placement. The following provision shall replace Section 13 of the Agreement: The grant of the Units hereunder is not intended to be a public offering of securities in Chile but instead is intended to be a private placement. The starting date of the offer will be the Grant Date (as defined in the Agreement), and this offer conforms to General Ruling no. 336 of the Chilean Commission for the Financial Market; The offer deals with securities not registered in the registry of securities or in the registry of foreign securities of the Chilean Commission for the Financial Market, and therefore such securities are not subject to its oversight; The issuer is not obligated to provide public information in Chile regarding the foreign securities, as such securities are not registered with the Chilean Commission for the Financial Market; and The foreign securities shall not be subject to public offering as long as they are not registered with the corresponding registry of securities in Chile. CHINA Foreign Exchange Control Laws. The following provisions shall govern the Employee’s participation in the Program if the Employee is a national of the People’s Republic of China (“China”) resident in mainland China, or if determined to be necessary or appropriate by the Company in its sole discretion: The Employee agrees to hold the Shares received upon settlement of the Units and any and all previously granted restricted stock units with the Company’s designated broker. If the Company changes its designated broker, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company may transfer any Shares issued under the Program to the new designated broker if necessary for legal or administrative reasons. The Employee agrees to sign any documentation necessary to facilitate the transfer. Upon a Termination, the Employee shall be required to sell all Shares issued pursuant to the Units within 180 days (or such shorter period as may be required by the State Administration of Foreign Exchange or the Company) of the Termination date and repatriate the sales proceeds to China in the manner designated by the Company. For purposes of the foregoing, the Company shall establish procedures for effectuating the forced sale of the Shares (including

procedures whereby the Company may issue sale instructions on behalf of the Employee), and the Employee hereby agrees to comply with such procedures and take any and all actions as the Company determines, in its sole discretion, are necessary or advisable for purposes of complying with local laws, rules and regulations in China. The Employee understands and agrees that the repatriation of dividends and 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 dividends issued on Shares and 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. Dividends and/or sales proceeds may be paid to the Employee in U.S. dollars or local currency at the Company’s discretion. If dividends and/or 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 dividends or proceeds may be deposited into this account. If dividends and/or 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 dividends and/or proceeds to local currency due to exchange control restrictions. The Employee agrees to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time dividends are issued or Shares are sold and the net proceeds are converted into local currency and distributed to the Employee. The Employee further agrees to comply with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company or its Subsidiaries in China in the future in order to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in China. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the processes and requirements set forth herein shall continue to apply following the Employee’s Termination. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be liable for any costs, fees, lost interest or dividends or other losses the Employee may incur or suffer resulting from the enforcement of the terms of this Addendum or otherwise from the Company’s operation and enforcement of the Program, the Agreement and the Units in accordance with Chinese law including, without limitation, any applicable State Administration of Foreign Exchange rules, regulations and requirements. COLOMBIA 1. Nature of Grant. This provision supplements Section 10 of the Agreement: The Employee acknowledges that, pursuant to Article 128 of the Colombian Labor Code, the Program and related benefits do not constitute a component of Employee's “salary” for any legal purpose. Therefore, they will not be included and/or considered for purposes of calculating any and all labor benefits, such as legal/fringe benefits, vacations, indemnities, payroll taxes, social insurance contributions and/or any other labor-related amount which may be payable. 2. Securities Law Information. Shares are not and will not be registered with the Colombian registry of publicly held securities (Registro Nacional de Valores y Emisores) and, therefore, the Shares may not be offered to the public in Colombia. Nothing in the Agreement should be construed as making a public offer of securities in Colombia. DENMARK The Act on Stock Options.

MEXICO 1. Commercial Relationship. The Employee expressly acknowledges that the Employee’s participation in the Program and the Company’s grant of the Award does not constitute an employment relationship between the Employee and the Company. The Employee has been granted the Award as a consequence of the commercial relationship between the Company and the Subsidiary in Mexico that employs the Employee, and the Company’s Subsidiary in Mexico is the Employee’s sole employer. Based on the foregoing: (a) the Employee expressly acknowledges that the Program and the benefits derived from participation in the Program do not establish any rights between the Employee and the Subsidiary in Mexico that employs the Employee; (b) the Program and the benefits derived from participation in the Program are not part of the employment conditions and/or benefits provided by the Subsidiary in Mexico that employs the Employee; and (c) any modifications or amendments of the Program or benefits granted thereunder by the Company, or a termination of the Program by the Company, shall not constitute a change or impairment of the terms and conditions of the Employee’s employment with the Subsidiary in Mexico that employs the Employee. 2. Extraordinary Item of Compensation. The Employee expressly recognizes and acknowledges that the Employee’s participation in the Program is a result of the discretionary and unilateral decision of the Company, as well as the Employee’s free and voluntary decision to participate in the Program in accordance

with the terms and conditions of the Program, the Agreement and this Addendum. As such, the Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Company, in its sole discretion, may amend and/or discontinue the Employee’s participation in the Program at any time and without any liability. The value of the Units is an extraordinary item of compensation outside the scope of the Employee’s employment contract, if any. The Units are not part of the Employee’s regular or expected compensation for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation, redundancy, end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits, or any similar payments, which are the exclusive obligations of the Company’s Subsidiary in Mexico that employs the Employee. 3. Securities Law Notice. The Units and the Shares offered under the Program have not been registered with the National Register of Securities maintained by the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission and cannot be offered or sold publicly in Mexico. In addition, the Program, the Agreement and any other document relating to the Units may not be publicly distributed in Mexico. These materials are addressed to the Employee only because of the Employee's existing relationship with the Company and these materials should not be reproduced or copied in any form. The offer contained in these materials does not constitute a public offering of securities but rather constitutes a private placement of securities addressed specifically to individuals who are present employees of the employer in Mexico made in accordance with the provisions of the Mexican Securities Market Law, and any rights under such offering shall not be assigned or transferred.

NEW ZEALAND Securities Law Notice. Warning This is an offer of Units which, upon vesting and settlement in accordance with the terms of the Program and the Agreement, will be converted into Shares. Shares give you a stake in the ownership of AbbVie Inc. You may receive a return if dividends are paid. If AbbVie Inc. runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, you will be paid only after all creditors and holders of preference shares have been paid. You may lose some or all of your investment. New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. 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 vesting and settlement of the Units, you will not have any rights of ownership (e.g., voting rights) with respect to the underlying Shares. No interest in any Units may be transferred (legally or beneficially), assigned, mortgaged, charged or encumbered. The Shares are quoted on the New York Stock Exchange. This means that if you acquire Shares under the Program, you may be able to sell them on the New York Stock Exchange if there are interested buyers. You may get less than you invested. The price will depend on the demand for the Shares. You also are hereby notified that the documents listed below are available for review on sites at the web addresses listed below: 1.

The grant of the Award under the Program is being made pursuant to the “Qualifying Person” exemption under section 273(1)(f) of the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289, 2006 Ed.) (the “SFA”). The Program has not been and will not be lodged or registered as a prospectus with the Monetary Authority of Singapore and is not regulated by any financial supervisory authority pursuant to any legislation in Singapore.

SPAIN 1. Acknowledgement of Discretionary Nature of the Program; No Vested Rights By accepting the Award, the Employee consents to participation in the Program and acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Program. The Employee understands that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion granted Units under the Program to individuals who may be employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision that is entered into upon the express assumption and condition that any grant will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries on an ongoing basis. Consequently, the Employee understands that the Units are granted on the assumption and condition that the Units and the Shares acquired upon settlement of the Units shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit, salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. In addition, the Employee understands that this grant would not be made to the Employee but for the assumptions and conditions referenced above; thus, the Employee acknowledges and freely accepts that should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason the Award shall be null and void. The Employee understands and agrees that, as a condition of the Award, unless otherwise provided in Section 4 of the Agreement, any unvested Units as of the date the Employee ceases active employment will be forfeited without entitlement to the underlying Shares or to any amount of indemnification in the event of Termination. The Employee acknowledges that the Employee has read and specifically accepts the conditions referred to in the Agreement regarding the impact of a Termination on the Units. 2. Termination for Cause. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Program or the Agreement, “Cause” shall be as defined as set forth in the Agreement, regardless of whether the Termination is considered a fair termination (i.e., “despido procedente”) under Spanish legislation. 3. Securities Law Notice. No “offer of securities to the public,” as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory. The Program, the Award, the Agreement, this Addendum and all other materials the Employee may receive regarding the Employee’s participation in the Program have not been nor will they be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Xxxxxxx de Valores (Spanish Securities Exchange Commission), and they do not constitute a public offering prospectus. SWEDEN Withholding of Tax-Related Items. The following provision shall supplement Section 8 of the Agreement:

Without limiting the authority of the Company and the Subsidiary that employs the Employee to satisfy their withholding obligations for Tax-Related items as set forth in Section 8 of the Agreement, the Employee authorizes the Company to withhold Shares otherwise deliverable to the Employee upon settlement of the Units to satisfy Tax-Related Items, regardless of whether the Company and/or the Subsidiary that employs the Employee has an obligation to withhold such Tax-Related Items.

UNITED KINGDOM 1. Payment of Taxes. Without limitation to Section 8 of the Agreement, the Employee hereby agrees that the Employee is liable for all Tax-Related Items and hereby covenants to pay all such Tax-Related Items, as and when requested by the Company or (if different) the Subsidiary that employs the Employee or by Her Majesty’s Revenue & Customs (“HMRC”) (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Employee also hereby agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and (if different) the Subsidiary that employs the Employee against any Tax-Related Items that they are required to pay or withhold on the Employee’s behalf or have paid or will pay on the Employee’s behalf to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Employee is a director or executive officer (as within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended), the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In the event that the Employee is a director or executive officer and income tax due is not collected from or paid by the Employee by within 90 days after the U.K. tax year in which an event giving rise to the indemnification described above occurs, the amount of any uncollected tax may constitute a benefit to the Employee on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions may be payable. The Employee acknowledges that the Employee ultimately will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for reimbursing the Company or the Subsidiary that employs the Employee (as applicable) for the value of any employee national insurance contributions due on this additional benefit, which the Company and/or the Subsidiary that employs the Employee may recover from the Employee at any time thereafter by any of the means referred to in Section 8 of the Agreement. 2. Exclusion of Claim. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the Employee will have no entitlement to compensation or damages insofar as such entitlement arises or may arise from the Employee’s ceasing to have rights under or to be entitled to the Units, whether or not as a result of Termination (whether the Termination is in breach of contract or otherwise), or from the loss or diminution in value of the Units. Upon the grant of the Award, the Employee shall be deemed to have waived irrevocably any such entitlement. VIETNAM Settlement in Cash. Notwithstanding Section 4 of the Agreement or any other provision in the Agreement to the contrary, pursuant to Section 12 of the Agreement, the Units will be settled in the form of a cash payment, except as otherwise determined by the Company.
