The indenture and the Notes shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

#### The Trustee
U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, successor to U.S. Bank National Association, will be named as the “Trustee” under the indenture. U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association and its affiliates perform certain commercial banking services for some of AbbVie’s affiliates for which they receive customary fees.

The Trustee will become obligated to exercise any of its powers under the indenture at the request or direction of any of the holders of any Notes pursuant to the indenture only after those holders have offered the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by the Trustee in compliance with such request or direction.

AbbVie has designated the Trustee as its paying agent for payments on Notes. AbbVie may at any time designate additional paying agents or rescind the designation of any paying agent or approve a change in the office through which any paying agent acts.

The Trustee or paying agent, as applicable, will repay to AbbVie on AbbVie’s written request any funds they hold for payments on the Notes that remain unclaimed for two years after the date upon which that payment has become due.

The security registrar will effect the transfer or exchange when it is satisfied with the documents of title and identity of the person making the request.

AbbVie will appoint the Trustee as security registrar for the Notes. AbbVie may at any time designate additional security registrars for any series of Notes or rescind the designation of any security registrar or approve a change in the location through which any security registrar acts.
