PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS AWARD AGREEMENT

GRANTED UNDER

BIOGEN INC. 2024 OMNIBUS EQUITY PLAN

1.Grant of Performance Stock Units

Pursuant to the Biogen Inc. 2024 Omnibus Equity Plan (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Plan”), Biogen Inc. (the “Company”) hereby grants to you, an employee or service provider of the Company or one of its Affiliates (the “Participant”), on each of the grant dates specified on your Fidelity stock plan account (the “Grant Date”), the number of performance stock units (the “Granted PSUs” or the “Award”) specified on your Fidelity stock plan account, subject to the terms and conditions of this award agreement (“Agreement”) and the Plan. No Granted PSUs shall be paid unless vested in accordance with this Agreement. The Participant’s rights to the Granted PSUs are subject to the restrictions described in this Agreement and the Plan, in addition to such other restrictions, if any, as may be imposed by law. All capitalized terms used herein will have the meaning specified in the Plan, unless another meaning is specified in this Agreement.

2.Vesting

A. The Participant shall have a non-forfeitable right to a portion of the Award only upon the vesting dates specified on your Fidelity stock plan account, except as otherwise provided herein or determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. Except as provided in Section 2.C. or 2.D. below, no portion of any Award shall become vested on the vesting date unless the Participant is then, and since the Grant Date has continuously been, employed by or in the service of the Company or any Affiliate. If the Participant ceases to be employed by or in the service of the Company and its Affiliates for any reason, any then-outstanding and unvested portion of the Award shall be automatically and immediately forfeited and terminated, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and the Plan.

B. The Award will become eligible to vest upon achievement of the Granted PSUs goals (“Performance Goals”), as adopted by the Committee in the first calendar quarter of the year in which the Award is granted and communicated. The calculation of the number of Granted PSUs that will vest is specified in the Long-Term Incentive Program Overview for Executives for the year in which the Award is granted (“LTI Overview”), which is also found on your Fidelity stock plan account. Granted PSUs that become eligible to vest upon the achievement of the Performance Goals are referred to as the “Eligible PSUs.” In the event and to the extent that the Performance Goals are not satisfied, such Granted PSUs shall not become eligible to vest and shall be immediately forfeited upon the Committee’s determination that such Performance Goals have not been satisfied (or deemed satisfied). As specified in the Performance Goals, in the event and to the extent that the Performance Goals are exceeded, an additional number of Granted PSUs will become eligible to vest. In no event shall the number of Eligible PSUs exceed 200% of the number of Granted PSUs. All Eligible PSUs shall vest on (i) the later of the third anniversary of the Grant Date or the date of the Committee’s determination of the degree to which the Annual Performance Goals have been satisfied (which shall occur not later than March 1 immediately following the end of the year to which the Annual Performance Goals relate), (ii) in the event of a Corporate Change in Control, the date or dates described in Section 2.C. below, or (iii) in the event of a termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company and its

[[DMS:6398816v4:7/1/2024 12:08:25 PM

Affiliates on account of death, Disability or Retirement, the date or dates described in Section 2.D below (the “Vesting Date”).

C. In the event of a Corporate Change in Control, subject to the Participant’s continued employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates through the date of such Corporate Change in Control:

(i) if the applicable performance period relating to the Performance Goals has ended prior to the date of such Corporate Change in Control, the Committee shall determine the extent to which the Performance Goals were achieved, if not yet determined, and the Granted PSUs that are eligible to vest based on the achievement of such Performance Goals shall become Eligible PSUs as of immediately prior to such Corporate Change in Control based on the level of achievement so determined;

(ii) if the applicable performance period relating to the Performance Goals has not ended prior to the date of such Corporate Change in Control, any outstanding Granted PSUs shall become Eligible PSUs as of immediately prior to such Corporate Change in Control assuming that the Performance Goals are achieved at target (or such greater level determined by the Committee);

(iii) to the extent the acquiring or surviving entity assumes, continues or substitutes for Eligible PSUs (determined after giving effect to clauses (i) and (ii) above) in connection with the Corporate Change in Control, the Eligible PSUs shall remain outstanding and, subject to the Participant’s continued employment or service with the acquiring or surviving entity, shall vest in full upon the third anniversary of the Grant Date or, if earlier, upon an Involuntary Employment Action as described in Section 10.B. of the Plan or the Participant’s termination of employment or service on account of death or Disability;

(iv) to the extent the acquiring or surviving entity does not assume, continue or substitute for the Eligible PSUs (determined after giving effect to clauses (i) and (ii) above) in connection with the Corporate Change in Control, the Eligible PSUs shall vest in full as of immediately prior to the Corporate Change in Control; and

(v) notwithstanding clause (iii) or (iv) above, with respect to a Participant who is or becomes eligible for Retirement at any time after the Grant Date and on or before the latest Vesting Date described in Section 2.B.(i) above, to the extent required to avoid adverse tax results under Section 409A, the Eligible PSUs (determined after giving effect to clauses (i) and (ii) above) shall vest in full as of immediately prior to the Corporate Change in Control.

D. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or Section 2.C. above, upon termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Company and its Affiliates for any reason, any portion of the Award that is not then vested will immediately terminate, except as follows:

(i) any portion of the Award held by the Participant immediately prior to the Participant’s termination of employment or service on account of death or Disability will, to the extent not vested previously, become fully vested upon the later of (a) the date of death or Disability of the Participant or (b) the date of the determination of the Eligible PSUs based on the achievement of the Performance Goals and the Committee’s determination thereof (including under Section 2.C. above, in which case the Eligible

[[DMS:6398816v4:7/1/2024 12:08:25 PM

PSUs (determined after giving effect to Section 2.C. above) will vest as of immediately prior to the Corporate Change in Control), even if such determination occurs following the date of death or Disability of the Participant; and

(ii) any portion of the Award held by the Participant immediately prior to the Participant’s Retirement, to the extent not vested previously, will become fully vested upon the later of (a) the date of Retirement or (b) the date of the determination of the Eligible PSUs based on the achievement of the Performance Goals and the Committee’s determination thereof (including under Section 2.C. above, and with the Eligible PSUs determined after giving effect to Section 2.C. above), and in either case, with respect to fifty percent (50%) of the number of Eligible PSUs covered by such unvested portion and as to an additional ten percent (10%) of the number of Eligible PSUs covered by such unvested portion for every full year of employment by the Company and its Affiliates beyond ten (10) years, up to the remaining amount of the unvested Eligible PSUs of the Award; provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing and Section 9.G.(2) of the Plan, in the event that the Participant’s Retirement occurs in the same calendar year as the Grant Date this Section 2.D.(ii) shall apply only to one-third (1/3) of the number of Eligible PSUs covered by such unvested portion. For the avoidance of doubt, Retirement means the Participant’s leaving the employment of the Company and its Affiliates after reaching age 55 with ten (10) consecutive years of service with the Company or its Affiliates, but not including pursuant to any termination For Cause or any termination for insufficient performance, as determined by the Company.

E. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, any portion of the Award held by a Participant or a Participant’s permitted transferee immediately prior to the cessation of the Participant’s employment For Cause shall terminate at the commencement of business on the date of such termination.

3.Delivery of Award

378411_1 3

[[DMS:6398816v4:7/1/2024 12:08:25 PM

Section 2.B.(i) of this Agreement, (ii) the date on which the Participant experiences a separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A) and/or the date the Eligible PSU vests under Section 2.B.(iii) of this Agreement, subject to Section 3.C. of this Agreement or (iii) the date on which a Corporate Change in Control occurs.

C.If you are a “specified employee” (as defined in Section 409A), to the extent required to avoid adverse tax results under Section 409A, you will be paid on the earlier of (i) the date which is six months after you separate from service (within the meaning of Section 409A) or (ii) the date of your death or Disability. The preceding sentence will not apply to any payments that are exempt from or are not subject to the requirements of Section 409A. For the avoidance of doubt, if payments would be made under Section 3.B.(i) or Section 3.B.(iii) before the six-month payment date on account of other than your separation from service, such payment will be made under Section 3.B.(i) or Section 3.B.(iii), as applicable.

4.Cancellation and Rescission of Awards

The Committee may cancel, rescind, withhold or otherwise limit or restrict the Award prior to payment at any time if the Participant is not in compliance with all applicable provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, or if the Participant engages in any Detrimental Activity.

5.No Voting, Dividend or Other Rights as a Stockholder

The Participant shall not have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any shares of Common Stock to be issued under the Award until he or she becomes the holder of such shares. Accordingly, the Award shall not be interpreted to bestow upon the Participant any equity interest or ownership in the Company or any Affiliate prior to the date on which the Company delivers to the Participant shares of Common Stock. Furthermore, the Participant is not entitled to vote any Common Stock or to receive or be credited with any dividends declared and payable on any share of Common Stock underlying the Award prior to the payment date with respect to such share.

6.Unfunded Status

The obligations of the Company and its Affiliates hereunder shall be contractual only and all such payments shall be made from the general assets of the Company or its Affiliates. The Participant shall rely solely on the unsecured promise of the Company and nothing herein shall be construed to give the Participant or any other person or persons any right, title, interest or claim in or to any specific asset, fund, reserve, account or property of any kind whatsoever owned by the Company or any Affiliate.

7.Withholding

Awards will be subject to income tax withholding and reporting as required under local law. If statutory withholding of taxes and/or social insurance is required at the time of vesting, the Company will withhold from delivery to the Participant an amount of cash equal in value to the statutory minimum amount required to be withheld. A similar amount of cash will be paid by the Company on behalf of the Participant to the applicable tax authorities. The amount of cash to be withheld will be calculated using the closing sales price of a share of Common Stock (or, in the case of an assumption or substitution described in Section 2.C.(iii) above, of the common stock of the acquiring or surviving entity or such other cash or property payable under the assumed or substituted award) on the applicable vesting date.

[[DMS:6398816v4:7/1/2024 12:08:25 PM

The Company may, in its discretion, permit Participants to make alternative arrangements for payment of any such taxes and/or social insurance.

In certain cases, local law may require that an award be subject to tax earlier than the date of payment. If that occurs, the Company will notify the Participant and will deduct the required tax amount from the Participant’s pay in accordance with applicable law.

8.Provisions of the Plan

The Award is subject to the provisions of the Plan, which are incorporated herein by reference, and in the event of any inconsistency or conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall control. A copy of the Plan as in effect on the Grant Date has been made available electronically to the Participant.

9. No Right to Employment

The grant of the Award shall not constitute a contract of employment or confer upon the Participant any right with respect to the continuance of his/her employment by or other service with the Company or any Affiliate, nor shall it or they be construed as affecting the rights of the Company (or any Affiliate) to terminate the service of the Participant at any time or otherwise change the terms of such service, including, without limitation, the right to promote, demote or otherwise re-assign the Participant from one position to another within the Company or any Affiliate.

10. Governing Law
