 RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT 

THE SPECIFIC TERMS OF YOUR GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS ARE FOUND IN THE PAGES RELATING TO THE GRANT OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
FOUND ON MERRILL LYNCH BENEFITS WEBSITE (OR THE WEBSITE OF ANY SUCCESSOR COMPANY TO MERRILL LYNCH BANK & TRUST CO., FSB) (THE “AWARD NOTICE”) WHICH ACCOMPANIES THIS DOCUMENT. THE TERMS OF THE AWARD NOTICE ARE INCORPORATED
INTO THIS RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT. 
 On the Grant Date specified in the Award Notice, Amgen Inc., a
Delaware corporation (the “Company”), has granted to you, the grantee named in the Award Notice, under the plan specified in the Award Notice (the “Plan”), the Number of Units with respect to the number of shares of
the $.0001 par value common stock of the Company (the “Shares”) specified in the Award Notice, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, any special terms and conditions for your country set
forth in the attached Appendix A and the Award Notice (together, the “Agreement”). The Units shall constitute Restricted Stock Units under Section 9.5 of the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. Capitalized
terms not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Plan. 
 I. Vesting Schedule
and Termination of Units. 
  

	 	a.	 General. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, on each Vesting Date, the Number of Units indicated on the Vesting Schedule
shall vest, provided that you have remained continuously and actively employed with the Company or an Affiliate (as defined in the Plan) through each applicable Vesting Date, unless (i) your employment has terminated due to your Voluntary
Termination (as defined in paragraph (d) of this Section I below), (ii) you experience a Qualified Termination (as defined below), or (iii) as otherwise determined by the Company in the exercise of its discretion as provided in
paragraph (f) of this Section I. The Units represent an unfunded, unsecured promise by the Company to deliver Shares. Only whole Shares shall be issued upon vesting of the Units, and the Company shall be under no obligation to issue any
fractional Shares to you. If your employment with the Company or an Affiliate is terminated for any reason or for no reason, including if your active employment is terminated by the Company or an Affiliate without Cause (as defined below), or in the
event of any other termination of your active employment caused directly or indirectly by the Company or an Affiliate, except as otherwise provided in paragraphs (b), (c), (d), (e) or (f) of this Section I below, your unvested Units shall
automatically expire and terminate on the date of termination of your active employment. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Vesting Schedule may be accelerated (by notice in writing) by the Company in its sole discretion at any
time during the term of the Units. In addition, if not prohibited by local law, vesting may be suspended by the Company in its sole discretion during a leave of absence as provided from time to time according to Company policies and practices.




  
 1 









	 	b.	 Permanent and Total Disability. Notwithstanding the provisions in paragraph (a) above, if your employment with the Company or an
Affiliate terminates due to your Permanent and Total Disability (as defined below), then the vesting of Units granted under this Agreement shall be accelerated, subject to your execution of a general release and waiver in a form provided by the
Company, to vest as of the day immediately preceding such termination of your employment with respect to all Units granted hereunder, except that if the Units were granted in the calendar year in which such termination occurs, the Units shall be
accelerated to vest with respect to a number of Units equal to the number of Units subject to this Agreement multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of complete months you remained continuously and actively employed during
such calendar year, and the denominator of which is twelve (12). 


  

	 	c.	 Death. Notwithstanding the provisions in paragraph (a) above, if your employment with the Company or an Affiliate terminates due to your
death, then the vesting of Units granted under this Agreement shall be accelerated to vest as of the day immediately preceding your death with respect to all Units granted hereunder, except that if the Units were granted in the calendar year in
which your death occurs the Units shall be accelerated to vest with respect to a number of Units equal to the number of Units subject to this Agreement multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of complete months you remained
continuously and actively employed during such calendar year, and the denominator of which is twelve (12). 


  

	 	d.	 Retirement. Notwithstanding the provisions in paragraph (a) above, if you terminate your employment with the Company or an Affiliate due
to your voluntary termination (and such voluntary termination is not the result of Permanent and Total Disability (as defined below)) after you are at least sixty-five (65) years of age, or after you are at least fifty-five (55) years of
age and have been an employee of the Company and/or an Affiliate for at least ten (10) years in the aggregate as determined by the Company in its sole discretion according to Company policies and practices as in effect from time to time
(“Voluntary Termination”), then the Units will vest pursuant to the Vesting Schedule without regard to the termination of employment prior to the Vesting Date, subject to your execution of a general release and waiver in a form
provided by the Company, with respect to all Units granted hereunder; provided, however, that if the Units were granted in the calendar year in which the Voluntary Termination occurs, the Units will vest pursuant to the Vesting Schedule provided in
the Award Notice only with respect to a number of Units equal to the number of Units subject to this Agreement multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of complete months you remained continuously and actively employed during
such calendar year, and the denominator of which is twelve (12); notwithstanding the definition of Voluntary Termination set forth above, if the Company receives an opinion of counsel that there has been a legal judgment and/or legal development in
your jurisdiction that would likely result in the favorable treatment upon Voluntary Termination described above being deemed unlawful and/or discriminatory, then the Committee will not apply the favorable treatment described above.




  
 2 









	 	e.	 Qualified Termination after a Change of Control. Notwithstanding the provisions in paragraph (a) above, in the event of a Qualified
Termination (as defined below), then, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the vesting of Units granted under this Agreement shall be accelerated to vest as of the day immediately prior to the Qualified Termination.



  

	 	f.	 Continued Vesting. Notwithstanding the provisions in paragraph (a) above, the Company may in its sole discretion at any time during the
term of this Agreement, in writing, otherwise provide that the Units will vest pursuant to the Vesting Schedule without regard to the termination of employment prior to the Vesting Date, subject to any terms and conditions that the Company may
determine. 


 For purposes of this Agreement: 

(i) “termination of your active employment” shall mean the last date that you are either an active
employee of the Company or an Affiliate or actively engaged as a Consultant or Director of the Company or an Affiliate; in the event of termination of your employment (whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of employment laws in the
jurisdiction where you are working or the terms of your employment agreement, if any), your right to receive Units and vest under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively providing services and will
not be extended by any notice period mandated under local law (e.g., active employment would not include any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where you are employed or the
terms of your employment agreement, if any). The Company shall have exclusive discretion to determine when you are no longer actively providing services for purposes of the Units (including whether you may still be considered to be providing
services while on a leave of absence); 
 (ii) “Cause” shall mean (i) your conviction of a
felony, or (ii) your engaging in conduct that constitutes willful gross neglect or willful gross misconduct in carrying out your duties, resulting, in either case, in material economic harm to the Company, unless you believed in good faith that
such conduct was in, or not contrary to, the best interests of the Company. For purposes of clause (ii) above, no act, or failure to act, on your part shall be deemed “willful” unless done, or omitted to be done, by you not in good
faith; 
 (iii) “Permanent and Total Disability” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term
under Section 22(e)(3) of the Code and with such permanent and total disability being certified prior to termination of your employment by (i) the U.S. Social Security Administration, (ii) the comparable governmental authority
applicable to an Affiliate, (iii) such other body having the relevant decision-making power applicable to an Affiliate, or (iv) an independent medical advisor appointed by the Company in its sole discretion, as applicable, in any such
case; 
 (iv) “Qualified Termination” shall mean 

 

	 	(a)	 if you are an employee who participates in the Change of Control Plan (as defined below), your termination of employment within two (2) years




  
 3 









	 	 
following a Change of Control (i) by the Company other than for Cause, Disability (as defined below), or as a result of your death or (ii) by you for Good Reason (as defined in the
Change of Control Plan); or 


  

	 	(b)	 if you are an employee who does not participate in the Change of Control Plan or the Change of Control Plan is no longer in effect, your termination
of employment within two (2) years following a Change of Control by the Company other than for Cause, Disability (as defined below), or as a result of your death; 



(v) “Change of Control” shall mean the occurrence of any of the following: 

(A) the acquisition (other than from the Company) by any person, entity or “group,” within the meaning of
Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Exchange Act (excluding, for this purpose, the Company or any of its Affiliates, or any employee benefit plan of the Company or any of its Affiliates which acquires beneficial ownership of voting securities
of the Company), of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of fifty percent (50%) or more of either the then-outstanding Shares or the combined voting power of the Company’s
then-outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors; or 
 (B)
individuals who, as of April 2, 1991, constitute the Board (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board, provided that any person becoming a director subsequent to April 2,
1991, whose election, or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board (other than an election or nomination of an individual whose
initial assumption of office is in connection with an actual or threatened election contest relating to the election of the Directors of the Company, as such terms are used in Rule 14a-11 of Regulation 14A promulgated under the Exchange Act) shall
be, for purposes of the Plan, considered as though such person were a member of the Incumbent Board; or 
 (C)
the consummation by the Company of a reorganization, merger, consolidation, (in each case, with respect to which persons who were the stockholders of the Company immediately prior to such reorganization, merger or consolidation do not, immediately
thereafter, own more than fifty percent (50%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote generally in the election of directors of the reorganized, merged or consolidated company’s then-outstanding voting securities) or a liquidation or
dissolution of the Company or of the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company; or 
 (D)
any other event which the Incumbent Board, in its sole discretion, determines shall constitute a Change of Control. 
 Notwithstanding anything herein or in the Agreement to the contrary, if a Change of Control constitutes a payment event with respect to any Unit that is subject to United States income tax and which
provides for a deferral of compensation that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the transaction or event described in subsection (A), (B), (C) or (D) above must also constitute a “change in control event,” as defined in
U.S. Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-3(i)(5), in order to constitute a Change of Control for purposes of payment of such Unit. 

  
 4 








 (vi) “Change of Control Plan” shall mean the Company’s
change of control and severance plan, including the Amgen Inc. Change of Control Severance Plan, as amended and restated, effective as of December 9, 2010 (and any subsequent amendments thereto), or equivalent plan governing the provision of
benefits to eligible employees upon the occurrence of a Change of Control (including resulting from a termination of employment that occurs within a specified time period following a Change of Control), as in effect immediately prior to a Change of
Control; and 
 (vii) “Disability” shall be determined in accordance with the Company’s
long-term disability plan as in effect immediately prior to a Change of Control. 
 II. Form and Timing of
Payment. Subject to satisfaction of tax or similar obligations as provided for in Section III, any vested Units shall be paid by the Company in Shares (on a one-to-one basis) on, or as soon as practicable after, and in any event within 90 days
after the applicable Vesting Date, which for purposes of this Section II, includes the date of any accelerated vesting, if any (the “Settlement Period”). (For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that any Units continue to vest following a
Voluntary Termination in accordance with Section 1(d) above, the Vesting Date(s) for purposes of payments pursuant to this Section II shall be the regularly scheduled Vesting Dates following such termination. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in the foregoing, in the event that (i) the vesting and settlement of Units is conditioned on your execution and delivery of a release and (ii) the Settlement Period commences in one calendar year and ends in the next calendar
year, the Units will be paid in the second calendar year. Shares issued in respect of a Unit shall be deemed to be issued in consideration of past services actually rendered by you to the Company or an Affiliate or for its benefit for which you have
not previously been compensated or for future services to be rendered, as the case may be, which the Company deems to have a value at least equal to the aggregate par value thereof. 

III. Tax Withholding; Issuance of Certificates. Regardless of any action the Company or your actual employer (the
“Employer”) takes with respect to any or all income tax (including federal, state and local taxes), social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally
applicable to you (“Tax Obligations”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability for all Tax Obligations is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company and/or your Employer. You
further acknowledge that the Company and/or your Employer (i) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax Obligations in connection with any aspect of the Units, including the grant of the Units, the vesting of
Units, the conversion of the Units into Shares or the receipt of an equivalent cash payment, the subsequent sale of any Shares acquired at vesting 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 Units to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax Obligations or achieve any particular tax result. Furthermore, if you become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant
Date and the date of any relevant taxable event, you acknowledge that the Company and/or your Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax Obligations in more than one jurisdiction. 

  
 5 








 Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you
shall pay, or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company or to your Employer (in their sole discretion) to satisfy all Tax Obligations. In this regard, you authorize the Company and/or your Employer or their respective agents, at their
discretion, to satisfy all applicable Tax Obligations by one or a combination of the following: 
 (a)
withholding from your wages or other cash compensation paid to you by the Company and/or your Employer; or 

(b) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon vesting or payment of the Units either through a
voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization); or 
 (c) withholding in Shares to be issued upon vesting or payment of the Units, provided that the Company and your Employer shall only withhold an amount of Shares with a fair market value equal to the Tax
Obligations. 
 To avoid adverse accounting treatment, the Company may withhold or account for Tax Obligations
not to exceed the applicable minimum statutory withholding rates or other applicable withholding rates. If the Tax Obligations are satisfied by withholding in Shares, for tax purposes, you are deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares
subject to the vested Units, notwithstanding that a number of the Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax Obligations due as a result of any aspect of your participation in the Plan (any Shares withheld by the Company hereunder
shall not be deemed to have been issued by the Company for any purpose under the Plan and shall remain available for issuance thereunder). 
 Finally, you shall pay to the Company or your Employer any amount of Tax Obligations that the Company or your Employer may be required to withhold or account for as a result of your participation in the
Plan that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. You agree to take any further actions and execute any additional documents as may be necessary to effectuate the provisions of this Section III. Notwithstanding Section II above,
the Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax Obligations. 

IV. Dividend Equivalents 

(a) Crediting and Payment of Dividend Equivalents. Subject to this Section IV, Dividend Equivalents shall be
credited on each Unit granted to you under this Agreement in the manner set forth in the remainder of this Section IV. If the Company declares one or more dividends or distributions (each, a “Dividend”) on its Common Stock with a record
date which occurs during the period commencing on the Grant Date through and including the day immediately preceding the day the shares of Common Stock subject to the Units are issued to you, whether in the form of cash, Common Stock or other
property, then on the date such Dividend is paid to the Company’s stockholders you shall be credited with an amount equal to the amount or fair market value of such Dividend which would have been payable to you if you held a number of shares of
Common Stock equal to the number of your Units as of the record date for such Dividend, unless the Units have been forfeited between the record date and 

  
 6 








 
payment date for such Dividend. Any such Dividend Equivalents shall be credited and deemed reinvested in the Common Stock as of the Dividend payment date. Dividend Equivalents shall be payable in
full shares of Common Stock, unless the Administrator determines, at any time prior to payment and in its discretion, that they shall be payable in cash. Dividend Equivalents payable with respect to fractional shares of Common Stock shall be paid in
cash. 
 (b) Treatment of Dividend Equivalents. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section
VI, any Dividend Equivalents credited to you shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Agreement which apply to the Units with respect to which they have been credited and shall be payable, if at all, at the time and to the extent that the
underlying Unit becomes payable. Dividend Equivalents shall not be payable on any Units that do not vest, or are forfeited, pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 

V. Transferability. No benefit payable under, or interest in, this Agreement or in the Shares that are scheduled
to be issued to you hereunder shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge and any such attempted action shall be void and no such benefit or interest shall be, in any manner,
liable for, or subject to, your or your beneficiary’s debts, contracts, liabilities or torts; provided, however, nothing in this Section V shall prevent transfer (i) by will or (ii) by applicable laws of descent and
distribution. 
 VI. Notices. Any notices provided for in this Agreement or the Plan shall be given in writing
or electronically and shall be deemed effectively given upon receipt or, in the case of notices delivered by the Company to you, five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail, postage prepaid, addressed to you at such address as is
currently maintained in the Company’s records or at such other address as you hereafter designate by written notice to the Company Stock Administrator. Such notices may be given using any automated system for the documentation, granting or
exercise of Awards, such as a system using an internet website or interactive voice response, as approved by the Company. 
 VII. Plan. This Agreement is subject to all the provisions of the Plan, which provisions are hereby made a part of this Agreement, including without limitation the provisions of Section 9.5 of
the Plan relating to Restricted Stock Units, and is further subject to all interpretations, amendments, rules and regulations which may from time to time be promulgated and adopted pursuant to the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the
provisions of this Agreement and those of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control. 
 VIII.
Governing Law. The terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises hereunder, the parties hereby
submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of the State of Delaware, and agree that such litigation shall be conducted in the courts of the State of Delaware, or the federal courts for the United States for the federal district located in the State
of Delaware, and no other courts, where this Agreement is made and/or to be performed. 
 IX. Code
Section 409A. The time and form of payment of the Units is intended to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A and this Agreement shall be interpreted in 

  
 7 








 
accordance with Code Section 409A and U.S. Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including without limitation any such regulations or other
guidance that may be issued after the Grant Date. Accordingly, no acceleration or deferral of any payment shall be permitted if it would cause the payment of the Units to violate Code Section 409A. In addition, notwithstanding any provision
herein to the contrary, in the event that following the Grant Date, the Committee (as defined in the Plan) determines that it may be necessary or appropriate to do so, the Committee may adopt such amendments to the Plan and/or this Agreement or
adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Committee determines are necessary or appropriate to (a) exempt the Plan and/or the Units from the
application of Code Section 409A and/or preserve the intended tax treatment of the benefits provided with respect to this Award, or (b) comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A; provided, however, that this
paragraph shall not create an obligation on the part of the Committee to adopt any such amendment, policy or procedure or take any such other action. For purposes of Code Section 409A, the right to receive payment of Units at each Vesting Date
shall be treated as a right to receive separate and distinct payments. 
 X. Acknowledgement. By electing
to accept this Agreement, you acknowledge receipt of this Agreement and hereby confirm your understanding that the terms set forth in this Agreement constitute, subject to the terms of the Plan, which terms shall control in the event of any conflict
between the Plan and this Agreement, the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the matters contained herein and supersede any and all prior agreements, arrangements and understandings, both oral and written, between the
parties concerning the subject matter of this Agreement. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. You hereby consent to receive such
documents by electronic delivery and agree to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company. 

XI. Acknowledgment of Nature of Plan and Units. In accepting this Agreement, you acknowledge that: 

(a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended,
suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, as provided in the Plan; 
 (b) the grant of the Units is
voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future awards of Units, or benefits in lieu of Units even if Units have been awarded repeatedly in the past; 

(c) all decisions with respect to future awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; 

(d) your participation in the Plan shall not create a right to further employment with the Employer and shall not
interfere with the ability of the Employer to terminate your employment or service relationship (if any) at any time; 

  
 8 








 (e) your participation in the Plan is voluntary; 

(f) the grant of Units and the Shares subject to the Units are not intended to replace any pension rights or
compensation; 
 (g) neither the grant of Units nor any provision of this Agreement, the Plan or the policies
adopted pursuant to the Plan confer upon you any right with respect to employment or continuation of current employment and shall not be interpreted to form an employment contract or relationship with the Company or any Affiliate; 

(h) the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; 

(i) in consideration of the grant of Units hereunder, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages arises from
termination of Units, and no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Units resulting from termination of your employment by the Company or an Affiliate (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in
breach of local labor laws) and you irrevocably release the Company and your Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, you shall be
deemed irrevocably to have waived your entitlement to pursue such claim; 
 (j) except as otherwise provided in
this Agreement or the Plan, the Units and the benefits evidenced by this Agreement do not create any entitlement to have the Units or any such benefits transferred to, or assumed by, another company nor to be exchanged, cashed out or substituted
for, in connection with any corporate transaction affecting the shares of the Company; 
 (k) the following
provisions apply only if you are providing services outside the United States: 
 (i) for employment law
purposes outside the United States, the Units and Shares subject to the Units are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purpose, including but not limited to for purposes of calculating any severance, resignation,
termination, redundancy, dismissal, end of service payments, bonuses, holiday pay, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments; and 

(ii) you acknowledge and agree that neither the Company, the Employer nor any Affiliate of the Company shall be liable
for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between your local currency and the United States Dollar that may affect the value of the Units or of any amounts due to you pursuant to the settlement of the Units or the subsequent sale of any Shares
acquired upon settlement. 
 XII. No Advice Regarding Award. The Company is not providing any tax, legal
or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding your participation in the Plan, or your acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. You are hereby advised to consult with your own personal tax, legal and financial
advisors regarding your participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. 

  
 9 








 XIII. Compliance with Laws. Notwithstanding any provision of this
Agreement to the contrary, if you are employed by the Company or an Affiliate in any of the countries identified in the attached Appendix A (which constitutes a part of this Agreement), are subject to the laws of any foreign jurisdiction, or
relocate to one of the countries included in the attached Appendix A, the Units granted hereunder shall be subject to any special terms and conditions for your country set forth in Appendix A and to the following additional terms and
conditions: 
  

	 	a.	 the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Appendix A, are deemed modified to the extent necessary or advisable to comply with
applicable foreign laws or facilitate the administration of the Plan; 


  

	 	b.	 if applicable, the effectiveness of your award of Units is conditioned upon its compliance with any applicable foreign laws, regulations, rules or
local governmental regulatory exemption and subject to receipt of any required foreign regulatory approvals;

Company’s election; and

 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Company may not take any actions hereunder, that would violate the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, the Code, or any other securities or tax or other applicable law or regulation, or the rules of any Securities Exchange.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the Shares issuable upon vesting of the Unit shall not be issued unless such Shares are then registered under the Securities Act, or, if such Shares are not then so registered, the Company
has determined that such vesting and issuance would be exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. 
 XIV. Data Privacy and Notice of Consent. You hereby explicitly and unambiguously consent to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data
as described in this Agreement by and among, as applicable, your Employer, the Company, and Affiliates of the Company for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan. 

You understand that the Company and your Employer may hold certain personal information about you, including, but
not limited to, your name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number (to the extent permitted under applicable local law) or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, residency status, any shares of
stock or directorships held in the Company, details of all equity compensation or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, vested, unvested or outstanding in your favor, for the purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Plan
(“Data”). 

  
 10 









 You understand that Data may be transferred to Merrill Lynch
Bank & Trust Co., FSB, or any successor thereto, or any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in your country or elsewhere, including outside the
European Economic Area and that the recipient’s country (e.g., the United States) may have different data privacy laws and protections than your country. You understand that if you reside outside the United States, you may request a list with
the names and addresses of any potential recipients of the Data by contacting your local human resources representative. You authorize your Employer, the Company, Affiliates of the Company, Merrill Lynch Bank & Trust Co., FSB, or any
successor thereto, and any other possible recipients which may assist the Company (presently or in the future) with implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer the Data, in
electronic or other form, for the purpose of implementing, administering and managing your participation in the Plan, including any requisite transfer of such Data as may be required to any other broker, escrow agent or other third party with whom
the Shares received upon vesting of the Units may be deposited. You understand that Data will be held only as long as is necessary to implement, administer and manage your participation in the Plan. You understand that if you reside outside the
United States, you may, at any time, view Data, request additional information about the storage and processing of Data, require any necessary amendments to Data or refuse or withdraw the consents herein, in any case without cost, by contacting in
writing your local human resources representative. Further, you understand that you are providing the consents herein on a purely voluntary basis. If you do not consent, or if you later seek to revoke your consent, your employment status or service
and career with the Employer will not be adversely affected; the only adverse consequence of refusing or withdrawing your consent is that the Company would not be able to grant you Units or other equity awards or administer or maintain such awards.
Therefore, you understand that refusing or withdrawing your consent may affect your ability to participate in the Plan. For more information on the consequences of your refusal to consent or withdrawal of consent, you understand that you may contact
your local human resources representative. 
 XV. Severability. If one or more of the provisions
of this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby and the invalid, illegal or unenforceable
provisions shall be deemed null and void; however, to the extent permissible by law, any provisions which could be deemed null and void shall first be construed, interpreted or revised retroactively to permit this Agreement to be construed so as to
foster the intent of this Agreement and the Plan.

 AMGEN INC. 2009 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

 (BY COUNTRY) 
 TERMS AND CONDITIONS 
 This Appendix includes additional terms and
conditions that govern any Units granted under the Plan if, under applicable law, you are a resident of, or are deemed to be a resident of one of the countries listed below. Furthermore, the additional terms and conditions that
govern any Units granted hereunder may apply to you if you relocate to one of the countries listed below and the Company shall, in its discretion, determine to what extent the terms and conditions contained herein shall apply to you. Certain
capitalized terms used but not defined in this Appendix A shall have the meanings set forth in the Plan and/or the Agreement to which this Appendix is attached. 
 NOTIFICATIONS 
 This Appendix also includes notifications relating to
exchange control and other issues of which you should be aware with respect to your participation in the Plan. The information is based on the exchange control, securities and other laws in effect in the countries to which this Appendix refers as of
February 2012. Such laws are often complex and change frequently. As a result, the Company strongly recommends that you not rely on the notifications herein as the only source of information relating to the consequences of your participation in the
Plan because the information may be outdated when you vest in the Units and acquire Shares under the Plan, or when you subsequently sell Shares acquired under the Plan. 
 In addition, the notifications are general in nature and may not apply to your particular situation, and the Company is not in a position to assure you of any particular result. Accordingly, you are
advised to seek appropriate professional advice as to how the relevant laws in your country may apply to your situation. Finally, if you are a citizen or resident of a country other than the one in which you are currently working or are considered a
resident of another country for local law purposes, the information contained herein may not be applicable to you or you may be subject to the provisions of one or more jurisdictions.

 Securities Law Information. You should be

By accepting any Units granted hereunder and participating in the Plan, you acknowledge having read and understood this Securities Law
Notification and further acknowledge that it is your responsibility to comply with the following Dutch insider trading rules: 

Under Article 5:56 of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act, anyone who has “inside information” related to the issuing company

securities issued by such company, which has not been made public, and which, if published, would reasonably be expected to affect the share price, regardless of the development of the price. The insider could be any employee of an Affiliate in the
Netherlands who has inside information as described herein. 
 Given the broad scope of the definition of inside information,
certain employees of the Company working at an Affiliate in the Netherlands (including persons eligible to participate in the Plan) may have inside information and, thus, would be prohibited from effectuating a transaction in securities in the
Netherlands at a time when in possession of such inside information.

 Labor Law Acknowledgement. The following provision supplements Section XI of the Agreement: 

By accepting the Units granted hereunder, you consent to participation in the Plan and acknowledge that you have received a copy of the
Plan. 

  
 APPENDIX A-14









 You understand that the Company has unilaterally, gratuitously and in its sole discretion
decided to grant any Units under the Plan to individuals who may be members of the Board, Employees or Consultants of the Company or its Affiliates throughout the world. The decision is a limited decision, which is entered into upon the express
assumption and condition that any Units granted will not economically or otherwise bind the Company or any of its Affiliates on an ongoing basis, other than as expressly set forth in the Agreement, including this Appendix. Consequently, you
understand that the Units granted hereunder are given on the assumption and condition that they shall not become a part of any employment contract (either with the Company or any of its Affiliates) and shall not be considered a mandatory benefit,
salary for any purposes (including severance compensation) or any other right whatsoever. Further, you understand and freely accept that there is no guarantee that any benefit whatsoever shall arise from any gratuitous and discretionary grant of
Units since the future value of the Units and the underlying Shares is unknown and unpredictable. In addition, you understand that any Units granted hereunder would not be made but for the assumptions and conditions referred to above; thus, you
understand, acknowledge and freely accept that, should any or all of the assumptions be mistaken or should any of the conditions not be met for any reason, then any grant of Units or right to Units shall be null and void. 

Further, the vesting of the Units is expressly conditioned your continued and active rendering of service, such that if your employment
terminates for any reason whatsoever, the Units may cease vesting immediately, in whole or in part, effective on the date of your termination of employment (unless otherwise specifically provided in Section I of the Agreement). This will be the
case, for example, even if (1) you are considered to be unfairly dismissed without good cause; (2) you are dismissed for disciplinary or objective reasons or due to a collective dismissal; (3) you terminate service due to a change of
work location, duties or any other employment or contractual condition; (4) you terminate service due to a unilateral breach of contract by the Company or an Affiliate; or (5) your employment terminates for any other reason whatsoever.
Consequently, upon termination of your employment for any of the above reasons, you may automatically lose any rights to Units that were not vested on the date of your termination of employment, as described in the Plan and the Agreement.

 You acknowledge that you have read and specifically accept the conditions referred to in Section I of the Agreement.

 Securities Law Information. The Units and the Shares described in the Agreement and this Appendix do not qualify under Spanish regulations as securities. No “offer of securities to the
public,” as defined under Spanish law, has taken place or will take place in the Spanish territory. The Agreement (including this Appendix) has not been nor will it be registered with the Comisión Nacional del Mercado
de Valores, and does not constitute a public offering prospectus. 
 Exchange Control Information. When receiving
foreign currency payments exceeding €50,000 derived from the ownership of Shares (i.e., dividends or sale proceeds), you must inform the financial institution receiving the payment of the basis upon which such payment is made.


  
 APPENDIX A-15









 You will need to provide the institution with the following information: (i) your name,
address, and fiscal identification number; (ii) the name and corporate domicile of the Company; (iii) the amount of the payment and the currency used; (iv) the country of origin; (v) the reasons for the payment; and

 If you acquire Shares under the Plan, you must declare the acquisition to
the Direccion General de Comercio e Inversiones (the “DGCI”). If you acquire the Shares through the use of a Spanish financial institution, that institution will automatically make the declaration to the DGCI for you; otherwise, you
will be required to make the declaration by filing a D-6 form. You must also declare ownership of any shares with the DGCI each January while the Shares are owned.

 UNITED KINGDOM 
 TERMS AND CONDITIONS 
 Tax Withholding. This provision
supplements Section III of the Agreement: 
 You agree that if you do not pay or your Employer or the Company does not withhold
from you the full amount of Tax Obligations that you owe at issuance of Shares in respect of the Units, or the release or assignment of the Units for consideration, or the receipt of any other benefit in connection with the Units (the “Taxable
Event”) within 90 days after the Taxable Event, or such other period specified in Section 222(1)(c) of the U.K. Income Tax (Earnings and Pensions) Act 2003, then the amount that should have been withheld and/or paid shall constitute a loan
owed by you to your Employer, effective 90 days after the Taxable Event. You agree that the loan will bear interest at the official rate of HM Revenue and Customs (“HMRC”) and will be immediately due and repayable by you, and the Company
and/or your Employer may recover it at any time thereafter (subject to Section III of the Agreement) by withholding the funds from salary, bonus or any other funds due to you by your Employer, by withholding in Shares issued in respect of the Units
or from the cash proceeds from the sale of Shares or by demanding cash or a check from you. You also authorize the Company to delay the issuance of any Shares to you unless and until the loan is repaid in full. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are an officer or executive director within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act,
as amended from time to time, the terms of the immediately foregoing provision will not apply. In the event that you are an officer or executive director and Tax Obligations are not collected from you within 90 days of the Taxable Event, the amount
of any uncollected Tax Obligations may constitute a benefit to you on which additional income tax and national insurance contributions may be payable. You acknowledge that you are responsible for reporting and paying these potential additional taxes
under the self-assessment regime. 
 Joint Election. As a condition of the Units granted hereunder, you agree to accept
any liability for secondary Class 1 National Insurance Contributions (the “Employer NICs”), which may be payable by the Company or your Employer with respect to the Units and/or payment of the Units and issuance of Shares pursuant to the
Units, the assignment or release of the Units for consideration, or the receipt of any other benefit in connection with the Units. 
 Without limitation to the foregoing, you agree to make an election (the “Election”), in the form specified and/or approved for such election by HMRC, that the liability for your Employer NICs
payments on any such gains shall be transferred to you to the fullest extent permitted by law. You further agree to execute such other elections as may be required between you and any successor to the Company and/or your Employer. You hereby
authorize the Company and your Employer to withhold such Employer NICs by any of the means set forth in Section III of the Agreement. 

  
 APPENDIX A-17









 Failure by you to enter into an Election, withdrawal of approval of the Election by HMRC or
a joint revocation of the Election by you and the Company or your Employer, as applicable, shall be grounds for the forfeiture and cancellation of the Units, without any liability to the Company or your Employer. 

UNITED STATES

vest under the Plan, if any, will terminate effective as of the date that you are no longer actively employed; provided, however, that such right will be extended by any notice period mandated by law (e.g. the Worker Adjustment and
Retraining Notification Act (“WARN Act”) notice period or similar periods pursuant to local law) and any paid administrative leave (as applicable), unless the Company shall provide you with written notice otherwise before the commencement
of such notice period or leave; provided further, that in no event shall payment of the Units be made after the close of your taxable year which includes the applicable Vesting Date or, if later, after the 15th day of the third calendar month following the applicable Vesting
Date.
