| Our Board of Directors recommends a vote AGAINST the stockholder proposal because: |                                                                                                                                        |
| •                                                                                  | Our human rights governance and management structure provides effective oversight of key human rights risks and mitigation strategies. |
| •                                                                                  | We have developed solutions based on privacy-enhancing technologies to address concerns similar to those raised in this proposal.      |

Our human rights governance and management structure provides effective oversight of key human rights risks and mitigation strategies As disclosed on our Human Rights website, under the umbrella of our Human Rights Program, our senior management oversees the implementation of our civil rights and human rights work. The Audit Committee also provides oversight of key risks, including those associated with human rights, data privacy and security, legal, regulatory, compliance, and reputational risks, “and the steps Alphabet takes to prevent, detect, monitor, and actively manage such exposures.” We also evaluate how we act on our human rights commitments and mitigate related risks, and make enhancements to our governance as appropriate. Our Human Rights Program advises product teams on potential civil and human rights impacts, conducts human rights due diligence, and engages with external experts and stakeholders. The Program also helps ensure that we are meeting our commitment to the United Nations Guiding Principles on Business and Human Rights, Global Network Initiative Principles, and other civil and human rights instruments. Our civil and human rights work is integrated into processes and procedures
