Electronic Signature:

This document (referred to below as this “Agreement”) spells out the terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Award”) granted to you by Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), pursuant to the Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. 2013 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) on and as of the Grant Date designated above. Except as otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used in this Agreement have the respective meanings set forth in the Plan. For purposes of this Agreement, “Employer” means the entity (the Company or the Affiliate) that employs you on the applicable date. The Plan, as it may be amended from time to time, is incorporated into this Agreement by this reference.

You and the Company agree as follows:

1. Grant of Restricted Stock Units. Pursuant to the approval and direction of the Compensation and Leadership Performance Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Committee”), the Company hereby grants you the number of Restricted Stock Units specified above (the “Restricted Stock Units”), subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan and this Agreement.

2. Restricted Stock Unit Account and Dividend Equivalents. The Company will maintain an account (the “Account”) on its books in your name to reflect the number of Restricted Stock Units awarded to you as well as any additional Restricted Stock Units credited as a result of Dividend Equivalents. The Account will be administered as follows:

(a) The Account is for recordkeeping purposes only, and no assets or other amounts shall be set aside from the Company’s general assets with respect to such Account.

(b) As of each record date with respect to which a cash dividend is to be paid with respect to shares of Company common stock par value US$.01 per share (“Stock”), the Company will credit your Account with an equivalent amount of Restricted Stock Units determined by dividing the value of the cash dividend that would have been paid on your Restricted Stock Units if they had been shares of Stock, divided by the value of Stock on such date.

(c) If dividends are paid in the form of shares of Stock rather than cash, then your Account will be credited with one additional Restricted Stock Unit for each share of Stock that would have been received as a dividend had your outstanding Restricted Stock Units been shares of Stock.

(d) Additional Restricted Stock Units credited via Dividend Equivalents shall vest or be forfeited at the same time as the Restricted Stock Units to which they relate.

3. Restricted Period. The period prior to the vesting date with respect each Restricted Stock Unit is referred to as the “Restricted Period.” Subject to the provisions of the Plan and this Agreement, unless vested or forfeited earlier as described in Section 4, 5, 6 or 7 of this Agreement, as applicable, your Restricted Stock Units will become vested and be settled as described in Section 8 below, as of the vesting date or dates indicated in the introduction to this Agreement, provided the performance goal in this Section 3 (“Performance Goal”) is satisfied as of the end of the applicable performance period. The Performance Goal will be established and certified by the Committee and cover one or more Company performance goals over the course of the Company’s 2021 fiscal year. If the Performance Goal is not attained as of the end of this performance period, the Restricted Stock Units awarded hereunder shall be thereupon forfeited.

4. Disability or Death. If during the Restricted Period you have a Termination of Service by reason of Disability or death, then the Restricted Stock Units will become fully vested as of the date of your Termination of Service and the Vesting Date shall become the date of your Termination of Service. Any Restricted Stock Units becoming vested by reason of your Termination of Service by reason of Disability or death shall be settled as provided in Section 8.

5. Retirement. If prior to the end of the first 12 months of the Restricted Period you have a Termination of Service by reason of retirement from the Company’s Board of Directors, as reasonably determined and approved by the Committee, then, subject to such approval and subject to satisfaction of the Performance Goal, the Restricted Stock Units will become vested on a prorated basis as of the later of the end of the performance period for the Performance Goal and the date of your Termination of Service, with such pro-ration based on the number of full months of service completed during the Restricted Period, divided by 36 months. If on or after the end of the first 12 months of the Restricted Period you have a Termination of Service by reason of retirement from the Company’s Board of Directors, as reasonably determined and approved by the Committee, then, subject to such approval and subject to satisfaction of the Performance Goal, the Restricted Stock Units will become fully vested as of the date of your Termination of Service. Any Restricted Stock Units becoming vested by reason of your retirement shall be settled as provided in Section 8.

6. Termination of Service Following a Change in Control. If during the Restricted Period there is a Change in Control of the Company and within the one-year period thereafter you have a Termination of Service initiated by your Employer other than for Cause (as defined in Section 7), then your Restricted Stock Units shall become fully vested, and they shall be settled in accordance with Section 9. For purposes of this Section 6, a Termination of Service initiated by your Employer shall include a Termination of Employment for Good Reason under—and pursuant to the terms and conditions of – the Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. Executive Severance and Change in Control Plan, but only to the extent applicable to you as an eligible participant in such Plan.

7. Other Termination of Service. If during the Restricted Period you have a voluntary or involuntary Termination of Service for any reason other than as set forth in Section 4, 5 or 6 above or Section 9 below, as determined by the Committee, then you shall thereupon forfeit any Restricted Stock Units that are still in a Restricted Period on your termination date. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” means any one or more of the following, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion:

(a) your commission of a felony or any crime of moral turpitude;

(b) your dishonesty or material violation of standards of integrity in the course of fulfilling your duties to the Company or any Affiliate;

(c) your material violation of a material written policy of the Company or any Affiliate violation of which is grounds for immediate termination;

(d) your willful and deliberate failure to perform your duties to the Company or any Affiliate in any material respect, after reasonable notice of such failure and an opportunity to correct it; or

(e) your failure to comply in any material respect with the United States (“U.S.”) Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the U.S. Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the U.S. Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010, and the U.S. Truth in Negotiations Act, or any rules or regulations thereunder.

8. Settlement of Vested Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the requirements of Section 13 below, as promptly as practicable after the applicable Vesting Date, whether occurring upon your Separation from Service or otherwise, but in no event later than 75 days after the Vesting Date, the Company shall transfer to you one share of Stock for each Restricted Stock Unit becoming vested at such time, net of any applicable tax withholding requirements in accordance with Section 10 below; provided, however, that, if you are a Specified Employee at the time of Separation from Service, then to the extent your Restricted Stock Units are deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code, settlement of which is triggered by your Separation from Service (other than for death), payment shall not be made until the date which is six months after your Separation from Service.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are resident or employed outside of the U.S., the Company, in its sole discretion, may provide for the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units in the form of:

(a) a cash payment (in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Stock that corresponds with the number of vested Restricted Stock Units) to the extent that settlement in shares of Stock (i) is prohibited under local law, (ii) would require you, the Company or an Affiliate to obtain the approval of any governmental or regulatory body in your country of residence (or country of employment, if different), (iii) would result in adverse tax consequences for you, the Company or an Affiliate or (iv) is administratively burdensome; or

(b) shares of Stock, but require you to sell such shares of Stock immediately or within a specified period following your Termination of Service (in which case, you hereby agree that the Company shall have the authority to issue sale instructions in relation to such shares of Stock on your behalf).

9. Settlement Following Change in Control. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Company may, in its sole discretion, fulfill its obligation with respect to all or any portion of the Restricted Stock Units that become vested in accordance with Section 6 above, by:

(a) delivery of (i) the number of shares of Stock that corresponds with the number of Restricted Stock Units that have become vested or (ii) such other ownership interest as such shares of Stock that correspond with the vested Restricted Stock Units may be converted into by virtue of the Change in Control transaction;

(b) payment of cash in an amount equal to the Fair Market Value of the Stock that corresponds with the number of vested Restricted Stock Units at that time; or

(c) delivery of any combination of shares of Stock (or other converted ownership interest) and cash having an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to the Fair Market Value of the Stock that corresponds with the number of Restricted Stock Units that have become vested at that time.

Settlement shall be made as soon as practical after the Restricted Stock Units become fully vested under Section 6, but in no event later than 30 days after such date.

10. Responsibility for Taxes; Tax Withholding.

(a) You acknowledge that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or any Affiliate, the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to your participation in the Plan and legally applicable to you (“Tax-Related Items”), is and remains your responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or any Affiliate, if any. You further acknowledge that the Company and/or any Affiliate (1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including, but not limited to, the grant, vesting or settlement of the Award, the subsequent sale of shares of Stock acquired pursuant to such settlement and the receipt of any Dividend Equivalents and/or dividends; and (2) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate your liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if you are subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction between the Grant Date and the date of any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you acknowledge that the Company and/or any Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

(b) Prior to any relevant taxable or tax withholding event, as applicable, you agree to make adequate arrangements satisfactory to the Company and/or any Affiliates to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. In this regard, except as provided below, the Company, your Employer or its agent shall satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Award that number of shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required by law to be withheld. For purposes of the foregoing, no fractional shares of Stock will be withheld or issued pursuant to the grant of the Restricted Stock Units and the issuance of shares of Stock hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if you are a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act at the time of any applicable tax withholding event, you may make a cash payment to the Company, any Affiliate or its agent to cover the Tax-Related Items that the Company or any Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for as a result of your participation in the Plan. If you are not a Section 16 officer

of the Company at the time of any applicable tax withholding event, the Company and/or any Affiliate may (in its sole discretion) allow you to make a cash payment to the Company, any Affiliate or its agent to cover such Tax-Related Items.

The Company may withhold or account for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable statutory withholding rates (as determined by the Company in good faith and in its sole discretion) or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case you will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the share equivalent. If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding from the shares of Stock to be delivered upon settlement of the Award, for tax purposes, you will be deemed to have been issued the full number of shares of Stock subject to the earned Award, notwithstanding that a number of the shares of Stock are held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items.

The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the shares of Stock (or cash payment) or the proceeds from the sale of shares of Stock if you fail to comply with your obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

11. Nontransferability. During the Restricted Period and thereafter until Stock is transferred to you in settlement thereof, you may not sell, transfer, pledge, assign or otherwise alienate or hypothecate the Restricted Stock Units whether voluntarily or involuntarily or by operation of law, other than by beneficiary designation effective upon your death, or by will or by the laws of intestacy.

12. Rights as Shareholder. You shall have no rights as a shareholder of the Company with respect to the Restricted Stock Units until such time as a certificate of stock for the Stock issued in settlement of such Restricted Stock Units has been issued to you or such shares of Stock have been recorded in your name in book entry form. Until that time, you shall not have any voting rights with respect to the Restricted Stock Units. Except as provided in Section 9 above, no adjustment shall be made for dividends or distributions or other rights with respect to such shares for which the record date is prior to the date on which you become the holder of record thereof. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, if a law or any regulation of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission or of any other body having jurisdiction shall require the Company or you to take any action before shares of Stock can be delivered to you hereunder, then the date of delivery of such shares may be delayed accordingly.

13. Securities Laws. If a Registration Statement under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended, is not in effect with respect to the shares of Stock to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement, you hereby represent that you are acquiring the shares of Stock for investment and with no present intention of selling or transferring them and that you will not sell or otherwise transfer the shares except in compliance with all applicable securities laws and requirements of any stock exchange on which the shares of Stock may then be listed.

14. Not a Public Offering. If you are resident outside the U.S., the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is not intended to be a public offering of securities in your country of residence (or country of employment, if different). The Company has not submitted any registration statement, prospectus or other filings with the local securities authorities (unless otherwise required under local law), and the grant of the Restricted Stock Units is not subject to the supervision of the local securities authorities.

15. Insider Trading/Market Abuse Laws. By participating in the Plan, you agree to comply with the Company’s policy on insider trading, to the extent that it is applicable to you. You further acknowledge that, depending on your or your broker’s country of residence or where the shares of Stock are listed, you may be subject to insider trading restrictions and/or market abuse laws that may affect your ability to accept, acquire, sell or otherwise dispose of shares of Stock, rights to shares of Stock, or rights linked to the value of shares of Stock during such times you are considered to have “inside information” regarding the Company as defined by the laws or regulations in your country. Local insider trading laws and regulations may prohibit the cancellation or amendment of orders you place before you possessed inside information. Furthermore, you 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. You understand that third parties include fellow employees and/or service providers. Any restrictions under these laws and regulations are separate from and in addition to any restrictions that may be imposed under any applicable Company insider trading policy. You acknowledge that it is your responsibility to comply with any applicable restrictions and, therefore, you should consult your personal advisor on this matter.

16. Repatriation; Compliance with Law. If you are resident or employed outside the U.S., you agree to repatriate all payments attributable to the shares of Stock and/or cash acquired under the Plan in accordance with applicable foreign exchange rules and regulations in your country of residence (and country of employment, if different). In addition, you agree to take any and all actions, and consent to any and all actions taken by the Company and its Affiliates, as may be required to allow the Company and its Affiliates to comply with local laws, rules and/or regulations in your country of residence (and country of employment, if different). Finally, you agree to take any and all actions as may be required to comply with your personal obligations under local laws, rules and/or regulations in your country of residence (and country of employment, if different).

17. No Advice Regarding Grant. No employee of the Company is permitted to advise you regarding your participation in the Plan or your acquisition or sale of the shares of Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units. You are hereby advised to consult with your own personal tax, legal and financial advisors before taking any action related to the Plan.

18. Change in Stock. In the event of any change in Stock, by reason of any stock dividend, recapitalization, reorganization, split-up, merger, consolidation, exchange of shares, or of any similar change affecting the shares of Stock, the number of Restricted Stock Units subject to this Agreement shall be equitably adjusted by the Committee.

19. Nature of the Award. In accepting the Award, you acknowledge, understand and agree that:

(l) neither the Company nor any Affiliate shall be liable for any foreign exchange rate fluctuation between your local currency and the U.S. dollar that may affect the value of the Award or of any amounts due to you pursuant to the settlement of the Award or the subsequent sale of any shares of Stock acquired upon settlement of the Award.

20. Committee Authority; Recoupment.

EXHIBIT A

WALGREENS BOOTS ALLIANCE, INC. NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION

AND CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

This Exhibit (the “Non-Compete Agreement”) forms a part of the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement covering Restricted Stock Units awarded to an employee (“Employee” or “I”) of Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. or an affiliate thereof, on behalf of itself, its affiliates, subsidiaries, and successors (collectively referred to as the “Company”).

WHEREAS, the Company develops and/or uses valuable business, technical, proprietary, customer and patient information it protects by limiting its disclosure and by keeping it secret or confidential;

WHEREAS, Employee acknowledges that during the course of employment, he or she has or will receive, contribute, or develop such Confidential Information and Trade Secrets (as defined below); and

WHEREAS, the Company desires to protect from its competitors such Confidential Information and Trade Secrets and also desires to protect its legitimate business interests and goodwill in maintaining its employee and customer relationships.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the Restricted Stock Units issued to Employee pursuant to the Agreement to which this is attached as Exhibit A and for other good and valuable consideration, including but not limited to employment or continued employment, the specialized knowledge, skill and training that the Company provides Employee, the goodwill that Employee develops with customers on behalf of the Company, Employee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Non-Compete Agreement as follows:

1. Confidentiality.

(a) At all times during and after the termination of my employment with the Company, I will not, without the Company’s prior written permission, directly or indirectly for any purpose other than performance of my duties for the Company, utilize or disclose to anyone outside of the Company any Trade Secrets (defined in subparagraph 1(a)(i)) or other Confidential Information (defined in subparagraph 1(a)(ii)) or any information received by the Company in confidence from or about third parties, as long as such matters remain Trade Secrets or otherwise confidential.

(i) For purposes of this Non-Compete Agreement, “Trade Secrets” means a form of intellectual property that are protectable under applicable state and/or Federal law, including the Uniform Trade Secrets Act (as amended and adapted by the states) and the Federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (the “DTSA”). They include all tangible and intangible (e.g., electronic) forms and types of information that is held and kept confidential by the Company and is not generally known outside of the Company, including but not limited to information about: the Company’s financial, business, scientific, technical, economic, or engineering information, including patterns, plans, compilations, program devices, formulas, designs, prototypes, methods, techniques, processes, procedures, programs or codes, and may in particular include such things as pricing information, business records, software programs, algorithms, inventions, patent applications, and designs and processes not known outside the Company.

(ii) For purposes of this Non-Compete Agreement, “Confidential Information” means Trade Secrets and, more broadly, any other tangible and intangible (e.g., electronic) forms and types of information that are held and kept confidential by the Company and are not generally known outside the Company, and which relates to the actual or anticipated business of the Company or the Company’s actual or prospective vendors or clients. Confidential Information shall not be considered generally known to the public if is revealed improperly to the public by me or others without the Company’s express written consent and/or in violation of an obligation of confidentiality to the Company. Examples of Confidential Information include, but are not limited to: customer, referral source, supplier and contractor identification and contacts; special contract terms; pricing and margins; business, marketing and customer plans and strategies; financial data; company created (or licensed) techniques; technical know-how; research, development and production information; processes, prototypes, software, patent applications and plans, projections, proposals, discussion guides, and/or personal or performance information about employees.

(b) I understand that this obligation of non-disclosure shall last so long as the information remains confidential. I, however, understand that, if I live and work primarily in Wisconsin, Virginia, or any other state requiring a temporal limit on non-disclosure clauses, Confidential Information shall be protected for two (2) years following termination of my employment (for any reason). I also understand that Trade Secrets are protected by statute and are not subject to any time limits. I also agree to contact the Company before using, disclosing, or distributing any Confidential Information or Trade Secrets if I have any questions about whether such information is protected information.

(c) The restrictions set forth in this paragraph are in addition to and not in lieu of any obligations I have by law with respect to the Company’s Confidential Information, including any obligations I may owe under the DTSA and any applicable state statutes. Nothing herein shall prohibit me from divulging evidence of criminal wrongdoing to law enforcement or prohibit me from disclosing Confidential Information or Trade Secrets if compelled by order of court or an agency of competent jurisdiction or as required by law; however, I shall promptly inform the Company of any such situations and shall take reasonable steps to prevent disclosure of Confidential Information or Trade Secrets until the Company has been informed of such required disclosure and has had a reasonable opportunity to seek a protective order. Pursuant to the DTSA, I understand that an individual may not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a Trade Secret that: (A) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. Additionally, I understand that an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the Trade Secret to his or her attorney and use the Trade Secret information in the court proceeding, so long as any document containing the Trade Secret is filed under seal and the individual does not disclose the Trade Secret, except pursuant to court order. Nothing in this Non-Compete Agreement is intended to conflict with the DTSA or create liability for disclosures of Trade Secrets that are expressly allowed by DTSA.

2. Non-Competition. I agree that during my employment with the Company and for twelve (12) months after the termination of my employment (for any reason), I will not, directly or indirectly have Responsibilities with respect to any Competing Business Line. As set forth in paragraph 9(a) below, I understand that the restrictions in this paragraph apply no matter whether my employment is terminated by me or the Company and no matter whether that termination is voluntary or involuntary. These restrictions shall not apply to passive investments of less than five percent (5%) ownership interest in any entity. For purposes of this Non-Compete Agreement, “Responsibilities” means the same or similar material responsibilities I performed for the Company during the two (2) years prior to my last day of employment with the Company and within the same geographic scope, or portion thereof, where I performed those responsibilities for the Company. For purposes of this Non-Compete Agreement, “Competing Business Line” means any business that is in competition with any business engaged in by the Company and for which I had Responsibilities during the two (2) years prior to my last day of employment with the Company. Competing Business Line shall also include businesses or business lines that may not be directly competitive with the Company in most respects (such as pharmacy benefit managers), but only to the extent I am engaged by any such business in a role: (a) that involves my performing Responsibilities for Competing Products or Services; or (b) where I would be called upon to inevitably rely upon or disclose Confidential Information and such reliance or disclosure would competitively harm the Company. For purposes of this Non-Compete Agreement, “Competing Products or Services” means products or services that are competitive with products or services offered by, developed by, designed by or distributed by the Company during the two (2) years prior to my last day of employment with the Company.

3. Non-Solicitation. I agree that during my employment with the Company and for two (2) years after the termination of my employment from the Company (for any reason):

(a) I will not directly or indirectly, solicit any Restricted Customer for purposes of providing Competing Products or Services, or offer, provide or sell Competing Products or Services to any Restricted Customer. For purposes of this Non-Compete Agreement, “Restricted Customer” means any person, company or entity that was a customer, vendor, supplier or referral source of the Company and with which I had direct contact for purposes of performing responsibilities for the Company or for which I had supervisory responsibilities on behalf of the Company, in either case at any time during the two (2) years prior to my last day of employment with the Company. To the extent permitted by applicable law, “Restricted Customer” also means any prospective customer(s), vendor(s), supplier(s) or referral source(s) with which I had business contact on behalf of the Company in the twelve (12) months prior to my last day of employment with the Company; and

(b) I will not, nor will I assist any third party to, directly or indirectly (i) raid, solicit, or attempt to persuade any then-current employee of the Company with whom I currently work or with whom I had direct contact work during the two years prior to my last day of employment with the Company, and who possesses or had access to Confidential Information of the Company, to leave the employ of the Company; (ii) interfere with the performance by any such employee of his/her duties for the Company; and/or (iii) communicate with any such employee for the purposes described in items (i) and (ii) in this subparagraph 3(b).

4. Non-Inducement. I will not directly or indirectly assist or encourage any person or entity in carrying out or conducting any activity that would be prohibited by this Non-Compete Agreement if such activity were carried out or conducted by me.

5. Non-Disparagement. During my employment with the Company and thereafter, I agree not to make negative comments or otherwise disparage the Company or any of its officers, directors, employees, shareholders, members, agents or products. The foregoing shall not be violated by truthful statements in response to legal process, required governmental testimony or filings, or administrative or arbitral proceedings (including, without limitation, depositions in connection with such proceedings); and the foregoing shall not apply to any claims for harassment or discrimination to the extent so restricted by applicable state law.

6. Intellectual Property. The term “Intellectual Property” shall mean all trade secrets, ideas, inventions, designs, developments, devices, software, computer programs, methods and processes (whether or not patented or patentable, reduced to practice or included in the Confidential Information) and all patents and patent applications related thereto, all copyrights, copyrightable works and mask works (whether or not included in the Confidential Information) and all registrations and applications for registration related thereto, all Confidential Information, and all other proprietary rights contributed to, or conceived or created by, or reduced to practice by Employee or anyone acting on his/her behalf (whether alone or jointly with others) at any time from the beginning of Employee’s employment with the Company to the termination of that employment plus ninety (90) days, that (i) relate to the business or to the actual or anticipated research or development of the Company; (ii) result from any services that Employee or anyone acting on its behalf perform for the Company; or (iii) are created using the equipment, supplies or facilities of the Company or any Confidential Information.

a. Ownership. All Intellectual Property is, shall be and shall remain the exclusive property of the Company. Employee hereby assigns to the Company all right, title and interest, if any, in and to the Intellectual Property; provided, however, that, when applicable, the Company shall own the copyrights in all copyrightable works included in the Intellectual Property pursuant to the “work-made-for-hire” doctrine (rather than by assignment), as such term is defined in the 1976 Copyright Act. All Intellectual Property shall be owned by the Company irrespective of any copyright notices or confidentiality legends to the contrary that may be placed on such works by Employee or by others. Employee shall ensure that all copyright notices and confidentiality legends on all work product authored by Employee or anyone acting on his/her behalf shall conform to the Company’s practices and shall specify the Company as the owner of the work. The Company hereby provides notice to Employee that the obligation to assign does not apply to an invention for which no equipment, supplies, facility, or Trade Secrets of the Company was used and which was developed entirely on the Employee’s own time, unless (i) the invention relates (1) to the business of the Company, or (2) to the Company’s actual or demonstrably anticipated research or development, or (ii) the invention results from any work performed by Employee for the Company.

b. Keep Records. Employee shall keep and maintain, or cause to be kept and maintained by anyone acting on his/her behalf, adequate and current written records of all Intellectual Property in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, computer files, reports or other documents relating thereto. Such records shall be and shall remain the exclusive property of the Company and shall be available to the Company at all times during my employment with the Company.

c. Assistance. Employee shall supply all assistance requested in securing for the Company’s benefit any patent, copyright, trademark, service mark, license, right or other evidence of ownership of any such Intellectual Property, and will provide full information regarding any such item and execute all appropriate documentation prepared by Company in applying or otherwise registering, in the Company’s name, all rights to any such item or the defense and protection of such Intellectual Property.

d. Prior Inventions. Employee has disclosed to the Company any continuing obligations to any third party with respect to Intellectual Property. Employee claims no rights to any inventions created prior to his/her employment for which a patent application has not previously been filed, unless he/she has described them in detail on a schedule attached to this Non-Compete Agreement.

e. Trade Secret Provisions. The provisions in paragraph 1 of this Non-Compete Agreement with regard to Trade Secrets and the DTSA shall apply as well in the context of the parties’ Intellectual Property rights and obligations.

7. Return of Company Property. I agree that all documents and data accessible to me during my employment with the Company, including Confidential Information and Trade Secrets, regardless of format (electronic or hard copy), including but not limited to any Company computer, monitor, printer equipment, external drives, wireless access equipment, telecom equipment and systems (“Company Equipment”), are and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Company and/or its clients, and must be returned to the Company upon separation or upon demand by the Company. I further agree that I will provide passwords to access such Company Equipment and I will not print, retain, copy, destroy, modify or erase Company U.S. data on Company Equipment or otherwise wipe Company Equipment prior to returning the Company Equipment.

8. Consideration and Acknowledgments. I acknowledge and agree that the covenants described in this Non-Compete Agreement are essential terms, and the underlying Restricted Stock Units would not be provided by the Company in the absence of these covenants. I further acknowledge that these covenants are supported by adequate consideration as set forth in this Non-Compete Agreement and are not in conflict with any public interest. I further acknowledge and agree that I fully understand these covenants, have had full and complete opportunity to discuss and resolve any ambiguities or uncertainties regarding these covenants before signing this Non-Compete Agreement, and have voluntarily agreed to comply with these covenants for their stated terms. I further acknowledge and agree that these covenants are reasonable and enforceable in all respects.

9. Enforceability; General Provisions.

(a) I agree that the restrictions contained in this Non-Compete Agreement are reasonable and necessary to protect the Company’s legitimate business interests and that full compliance with the terms of this Non-Compete Agreement will not prevent me from earning a livelihood following the termination of my employment, and that these covenants do not place undue restraint on me. I further understand that the restrictions in this Non-Compete Agreement apply no matter whether my employment is terminated by me or the Company and no matter whether that termination is voluntary or involuntary.

(b) Because the Company’s current base of operations is in Illinois and my connections thereto, (i) this Non-Compete Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Illinois, where this Non-Compete Agreement is entered into, without giving effect to any conflict of law provisions, and (ii) I consent to personal jurisdiction and the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts of Illinois with respect to any claim, dispute or declaration arising out of this Non-Compete Agreement.

(c) In the event of a breach or a threatened breach of this Non-Compete Agreement, I acknowledge that the Company will face irreparable injury which may be difficult to calculate in dollar terms and that the Company shall be entitled, in addition to all remedies otherwise available in law or in equity, to temporary restraining orders and preliminary and final injunctions enjoining such breach or threatened breach in any court of competent jurisdiction without the necessity of posting a surety bond, as well as to obtain an equitable accounting of all profits or benefits arising out of any violation of this Non-Compete Agreement.

(d) I agree that if a court determines that any of the provisions in this Non-Compete Agreement is unenforceable or unreasonable in duration, territory, or scope, then that court shall modify those provisions so they are reasonable and enforceable, and enforce those provisions as modified.

(e) If any one or more provisions (including paragraphs, subparagraphs and terms) of this Non-Compete Agreement or its application is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable to any extent or for any reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, I agree that the remaining provisions (including paragraphs, subparagraphs and terms) of this Non-Compete Agreement will still be valid and the provision declared to be invalid or illegal or unenforceable will be considered to be severed and deleted from the rest of this Non-Compete Agreement. I further agree that if any court of competent jurisdiction finds any of the restrictions set forth in this Non-Compete Agreement to be overly broad and unenforceable, the restriction shall be interpreted to extend only over the maximum time period, geographic area, or range of activities or clients that such court deems enforceable

(f) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Non-Compete Agreement, the non-competition provisions of paragraph 2 above shall not restrict Employee from performing legal services as a licensed attorney for a Competing Business to the extent that the attorney licensure requirements in the applicable jurisdiction do not permit Employee to agree to the otherwise applicable restrictions of paragraph 2.

(g) Waiver of any of the provisions of this Non-Compete Agreement by the Company in any particular instance shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any provision in any other instance and/or of the Company’s other rights at law or under this Non-Compete Agreement.

(h) I agree that the Company may assign this Non-Compete Agreement to its successors and assigns and that any such successor or assign may stand in the Company’s stead for purposes of enforcing this Non-Compete Agreement.

(i) I agree to reimburse the Company for all attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses that it reasonably incurs in connection with enforcing its rights and remedies under this Non-Compete Agreement, but only to the extent the Company is ultimately the prevailing party in the applicable legal proceedings.

(j) I understand and agree that, where allowed by applicable law, the time for my obligations set out in paragraphs 2 – 6 shall be extended for period of non-compliance up to an additional two (2) years following my last day of employment with the Company (for any reason).

(k) I fully understand my obligations in this Non-Compete Agreement, have had full and complete opportunity to discuss and resolve any ambiguities or uncertainties regarding these covenants before signing this Non-Compete Agreement, and have voluntarily agreed to comply with these covenants for their stated terms.

(l) I agree that all non-competition, non-solicitation, non-disclosure and use, non-recruiting, and disclosure obligations in this Non-Compete Agreement shall survive any termination of this Non-Compete Agreement and extend to the proscribed periods following my last day of employment with the Company (for any reason) and no dispute regarding any other provisions of this Non-Compete Agreement or regarding my employment or the termination of my employment shall prevent the operation and enforcement of these obligations.

(m) I understand that nothing in this Non-Compete Agreement, including the non-disclosure and non-disparagement provisions, limit my ability to file a charge or complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, Department of Labor, National Labor Relations Board, Occupational Safety and Health Administration, Securities and Exchange Commission or any other federal, state or local governmental agency or commission. I also understand that this Non-Compete Agreement does not limit my ability to communicate with any government agencies or otherwise participate in any investigation or proceeding that may be conducted by any government agency, including providing documents or other information, without notice to the Company. Finally, I understand that nothing in this Non-Compete Agreement is intended to restrict my legally-protected right to discuss wages, hours or other working condition with co-workers, or in any way limit my rights under the National Labor Relations Act or any whistleblower act.

10. Relationship of Parties. I acknowledge that my relationship with the Company is “terminable at will” by either party and that the Company or I can terminate the relationship with or without cause and without following any specific procedures. Nothing contained in this Non-Compete Agreement is intended to or shall be relied upon to alter the “terminable at will” relationship between the parties. I agree that my obligations in this Non-Compete Agreement shall survive the termination of my employment from the Company for any reason and shall be binding upon my successors, heirs, executors and representatives.

This Non-Compete Agreement shall not supersede any other restrictive covenants to which I may be subject under an employment contract, benefit program or otherwise, such that the Company may enforce the terms of any and all restrictive covenants to which I am subject. The obligations herein are in addition to and do not limit any obligations arising under applicable statutes and common law.

2. Non-Competition. In exchange for Company providing me the consideration set forth in the Agreement, I agree that during my employment and for a period of one (1) year from the Termination Date – i.e., the date of my voluntary termination of employment, or of the involuntary termination of my employment with Cause (as defined below) – I will not, directly or indirectly, engage in “Competition” (as defined below) within the “Geographic Region” (as defined below).

(b) “Competing Business” means a business that is in competition with any business engaged in by the Company.

(c) “Competition” means to provide the same or substantially similar services to a Competing Business as those that I provided to the Company during the last two (2) years of my employment with the Company. “Competition” does not include passive investments of less than five percent (5%) ownership interest in any entity.

My annual base salary, for the purposes of this Paragraph 2(e), will be calculated based on my average annual salary for my last two (2) years of employment, less any applicable deductions, and excluding any incentive compensation, bonuses, benefits, or other compensation, less any applicable deductions (the “Restraint Payment”). The Restraint Payment will be paid on a pro-rata basis during the Restraint Period in the same manner that I would have received wages from the Company had I been employed during the Restraint Period.

(f) The Restraint Period shall be extended from one (1) year following the Termination Date to two (2) years following the Termination Date if I (i) breached Employee’s fiduciary duty(ies) to the Company, or (ii) unlawfully took, physically or electronically, property belonging to the Company. In the event that the Restraint Period is extended due to my breach of my fiduciary duty(ies) to the Company, or due to my having unlawfully taken, physically or electronically, property belonging to the Company, the Company shall not be required to provide payments to me during the extension of the Restraint Period.

(g) I understand that if the Company elects to waive the non-competition provisions set forth herein, I will not receive any compensation or consideration described in Paragraph 2(e). I further understands that at the time of my separation from employment, the Company shall elect whether to waive its enforcement of the non-competition provisions in the Agreement (including this Massachusetts Addendum). You will be notified by the Company of its election or waiver by letter, in a form of the following notice:

Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. (the “Company”), pursuant to Paragraph 2 of the Massachusetts Addendum (dated , 20 ) to the Walgreens Boots Alliance, Inc. Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation, and Confidentiality Agreement (the “Agreement”), in its sole discretion, elects to:

(h) If I was already employed by the Company on the date of my signature on the Agreement, I acknowledge that the Agreement, including this Massachusetts Addendum, was delivered to me at least ten (10) business days before the date that this Addendum was executed by both of the parties (the “Effective Date”).

Non-Competition. I acknowledge and agree that the Company would be irreparably damaged if I – in any capacity (i.e., as an independent contractor, consultant, employee, shareholder, member, owner or business partner) – were to

provide services to any person directly or indirectly competing with the Company or any of its affiliates or Engaged in a Competing Business and that such competition by me would result in a significant loss of Goodwill by the Company. Therefore, I agree that the following are reasonable restrictions and agree to be bound by such restrictions:

(a) During my employment, and for a period of twelve (12) months immediately following the termination of such employment for any reason, I shall not, directly or indirectly – in any capacity (i.e., as an independent contractor, consultant, employee, shareholder, member, owner or business partner) – Engage in Competing Business services or activities within the Restricted Territory; provided, that nothing herein shall prohibit me from being a passive owner of not more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding stock of any class of a corporation which is publicly traded so long as I do not have any active participation in the business of such corporation.

(b) I warrant and represent that the nature and extent of this non-competition clause has been fully explained to me by the Company and that my decision to accept the same is made voluntarily, knowingly, intelligently and free from any undue pressure or coercion. I further warrant and represent that I have agreed to this non-competition clause in consideration of the Stock Option I will be receiving under this Agreement.

Non-Solicitation of Customers. I agree that for a period of twelve (12) months following the voluntary or involuntary termination of my employment for any reason, I will not, either on my own behalf or for any Competing Business, directly or indirectly solicit, divert, or appropriate (or attempt to solicit, divert, or appropriate) any Customer with which I had material business contact in the six (6) month period preceding the termination of my employment, for providing products or services that are the same as or substantially similar to those provided by the Company.

Non-Solicitation of Employees. I recognize and admit that the Company has a legitimate business interest in retaining its employees, representatives, agents and/or consultants and of protecting its business from previous employees, representatives, agents and/or consultants, which makes necessary the establishment of a non-solicitation clause in the Agreement. I agree that for a period of twelve (12) months following the voluntary or involuntary termination of my employment for any reason, I shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) induce or attempt to induce any employee, representative, agent or consultant of the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries to leave the employ or services of the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries and any employee, representative, agent or consultant thereof or (b) hire any person who was an employee, representative, agent or consultant of the Company or any of its affiliates or subsidiaries at any time during the twelve (12) month period immediately prior to the date on which such hiring would take place. No action by another person or entity shall be deemed to be a breach of this provision unless I directly or indirectly assisted, encouraged or otherwise counseled such person or entity to engage in such activity.

WASHINGTON ADDENDUM

No. 1:

Paragraph 2 is replaced in its entirety as follows:

Non-Competition.

(a) The non-competition provisions of this Paragraph 2 shall only apply when my annualized salaried exceeds the compensation requirements of the Restrictions on Noncompetition Covenants Bill 5478 as codified in RCW 49.

(b) I agree that during my employment with the Company and for one (1) year after the termination of my employment for any reason, I will not, directly or indirectly, engage in Competing Services with respect to any Competing Business Line. As set forth in Paragraph 10(a) below, I understand that the restrictions in this paragraph apply no matter whether my employment is terminated by me or the Company and no matter whether that termination is voluntary or involuntary. The above restrictions shall not apply to passive investments of less than five percent (5%) ownership interest in any entity. For purposes of this Non-Compete Agreement, “Competing Business Line” means any business that is in competition with any business engaged in by the Company and for which I performed Competing services during the two (2) years prior to my last day of employment with the Company. For purposes of this Non-Compete Agreement, “Competing Services” means the same or similar responsibilities I performed for the Company during the two (2) years prior to my last day of employment with the Company and within the same geographic scope, or portion thereof, with respect to which I performed those responsibilities for the Company.

Such payments will be made to me at regular payroll intervals for the duration of the one (1) year post-employment non-competition period or such shorter period during which the Company enforces these non-competition provisions. I agree that I must promptly inform the Company of the date on which I begin any other employment or engagement by, with or for the benefit of any other individual or entity, at which time I agree the Company may and will terminate all such payments to me. Although such payments by the Company will terminate when I commence employment or any other engagement by, with or for the benefit of another individual, entity or employer, I agree that the Paragraph 2(a) non-competition restrictions will remain in effect until one (1) year after my Company employment ends. I also agree that if I fail to timely notify the Company of any other employment or engagement, and if the Company’s payments to me therefore continue after I have commenced any such employment or engagement, then any such payments to me will be deemed to be placed by me in constructive trust for the benefit of the Company, and I agree that I must and will promptly return all such payments to the Company.
