WITNESSETH

WHEREAS, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee have previously executed and delivered an indenture, dated June 19, 2014 (the “Indenture”), providing for the issuance of the Company’s 3.850% Notes due 2024 and 4.850% Notes due 2044 (collectively, the “Notes”);

WHEREAS, Allergan plc, an Irish public limited company and the Company’s ultimate parent (“Allergan”), has entered into a definitive transaction agreement, dated June 25, 2019, by and among Allergan, AbbVie Inc., a Delaware corporation (“AbbVie”), and Venice Subsidiary LLC, a wholly-owned subsidiary of AbbVie (“Acquirer Sub”), as amended from time to time, which provides, among other things, that (i) on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, Acquirer Sub will acquire Allergan pursuant to a scheme of arrangement (the “Scheme”) under Chapter 1 of Part 9 of the Irish Companies Act 2014 (the “Act”) and a capital reduction under Sections 84 to 86 of the Act (the “Acquisition”), and (ii) as a result of the Scheme, Allergan will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of AbbVie;

WHEREAS, in connection with the Acquisition, AbbVie has issued an Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement, dated October 25, 2019 (the “Offering Memorandum and Consent Solicitation Statement”), pursuant to which AbbVie has offered to exchange (the “Exchange Offers”) any and all outstanding Notes of each series for notes issued by AbbVie, and AbbVie (on behalf of the Company) has solicited (the “Consent Solicitations”) the Holders of the Notes of each series to direct the Trustee to execute and deliver amendments to the Indenture as set forth in Article I hereof (the “Amendments”);

WHEREAS, Section 9.02 of the Indenture provides that the Company and the Trustee may amend or supplement the Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees with the consent of the Holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Notes of any particular series voting as a single class (the “Requisite Consents”) for the purposes described therein;

WHEREAS, the Company desires to amend certain provisions of the Indenture and the Notes and the Note Guarantees, as set forth in Article I of this Supplemental Indenture, and in accordance with the Consent Solicitations, as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on November 7, 2019, Requisite Consents have been validly delivered by Holders and not validly revoked and the Company has delivered to the Trustee the Requisite Consents which constitute an Act of Holders of the Notes of each series for the Notes of such series to enter into this Supplemental Indenture to effect the Amendments under the Indenture;

WHEREAS, the Company, the Guarantors and the Trustee intend that this Supplemental Indenture shall not prevent the Notes from being treated as “grandfathered obligations” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Sections 1.1471-2(b)(2)); and



WHEREAS, the Company hereby requests that the Trustee join with the Company and the Guarantors in the execution of this Supplemental Indenture and the Company has provided the Trustee with a Board Resolution authorizing the Company’s execution of this Supplemental Indenture.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes of each series as follows:

ARTICLE II 

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 2.2Effect of Supplemental Indenture.This Supplemental Indenture is a supplemental indenture within the meaning of the Indenture. The provisions of this Supplemental Indenture are intended with respect to the Notes to supplement those of the Indenture as in effect immediately prior to the execution and delivery hereof. The Indenture shall remain in full force and effect except to the extent that the provisions of the Indenture are expressly modified by the terms of this Supplemental Indenture with respect to the Notes. The Indenture, as supplemented and amended by this Supplemental Indenture, is in all respects ratified, confirmed and approved and, with respect to each series of Notes, the Indenture, as supplemented and amended by this Supplemental Indenture, shall be read, taken and construed as one and the same instrument.

Section 2.3Governing Law.The internal law of the State of New York shall govern and be used to construe this Supplemental Indenture without giving effect to applicable principles of conflicts of law to the extent that the application of the laws of another jurisdiction would be required thereby. 

Section 2.4Trustee’s Disclaimer.The Trustee accepts the amendments of the Indenture effected by this Supplemental Indenture, but on the terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture, including the terms and provisions defining and limiting the liabilities and responsibilities of the Trustee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be responsible in any manner whatsoever for or with respect to any of the recitals or statements contained herein, all of which recitals or statements are made solely by the Company, or for or with respect to (i) the validity or sufficiency of this Supplemental Indenture or any of the terms or provisions hereof, (ii) the proper authorization hereof by the Company by action or otherwise, (iii) the due execution hereof by the Company or (iv) the consequences of any amendment herein provided for, and the Trustee makes no representation with respect to any such matters.

The exchange of copies of this Supplemental Indenture and of signature pages by facsimile or PDF transmission shall constitute effective execution and delivery of this Supplemental Indenture as to the parties hereto and may be used in lieu of the original Supplemental Indenture and signature pages for all purposes.

Section 2.7Effectiveness; Termination.This Supplemental Indenture shall become effective and binding on the Company, the Guarantors, the Trustee and every Holder of the Notes of each series heretofore or hereafter authenticated and delivered under the Indenture upon the execution and delivery by the parties of this Supplemental Indenture; provided, however, that the Amendments shall
