 ADDENDUM A 

FRAMEWORK ADDENDUM 
  

	1.	 SCOPE OF AGREEMENT. 



1.1 Purpose. This Agreement sets forth the terms and conditions under which the Parties will collaborate with respect to, and
Rivian will Develop, Manufacture, and supply certain Products and perform certain Services pursuant to Orders placed by Amazon under this Agreement, in each case, that meet the Requirements agreed on by the Parties, as set forth in applicable
Order(s). 
 1.2 No Dealership Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Contract Documents or the ultimate disposition,
sale, license, lease, or distribution of the Products by Amazon or any of its Authorized Purchasers, agents, subcontractors, or distributors, the Parties agree that none of the Contract Documents are intended to be, and will not be construed as,
franchise, dealership, or other similar type of automotive retailer agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties agree that it is their express intent that the Contract Documents not be enforced in accordance with any applicable Laws
related to automotive franchises, dealerships, or retailers with respect to the goods and services manufactured, sold, repaired, or otherwise maintained under the Contract Documents (collectively, “Dealership Laws”). If, notwithstanding
the intent of the Parties, this Agreement (or any other Contract Document) is subject to Dealership Laws, the Parties expressly waive, to the full extent permitted by applicable Law, each and every provision of such Dealership Laws that are
different or additional to the terms and provisions of the Contract Documents. If any of the Dealership Laws cannot be waived by a Party, such Party agrees it is such Party’s intent that any provision of the Dealership Laws that are different
or additional to the terms and conditions of the Contract Documents be interpreted as closely as possible to the applicable provisions of the Contract Documents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section 1.2 will limit
Rivian’s obligations, if any, to comply with Dealership Laws. 
 1.3 Authorized Territories. Rivian will sell and provide
the Products and Services to Amazon and its Affiliates, Authorized Purchasers, agents or designees throughout the Authorized Territories and Amazon, its Affiliates, and Authorized Purchasers will not distribute, operate, or use the Products outside
of the Authorized Territories; provided, however, Amazon, its Affiliates, and Authorized Purchasers may operate and use any Products in a country within the European Union that is not an Authorized Territory as long as the Authorizations provided by
Rivian for such Products allow for the operation and use of such Products in the applicable countries. 
 1.4 Reserved. 

1.5 Products and Services, Generally. The
Parties have entered into Work Order #1 as of the Effective Date and may enter into additional separately executed work orders in the form agreed by the Parties in writing from time to time (each, a “Work Order”). Amazon will issue
Purchase Orders under such Work Orders in accordance with the terms set forth in this Agreement and in the Work Orders. Rivian agrees to Develop, Manufacture, supply, and deliver to Amazon, and at Amazon’s request and subject to Section 1.6, to
any Authorized Purchaser, any Products and perform the Services as identified in a Work Order and subsequent Purchase Orders, in accordance with the Requirements and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Parties may update the
Requirements for any Product or Service as set forth in the applicable Order and may add additional Products and Services by executing additional Work Orders. Subject to Rivian’s Intellectual Property Rights and the other rights and obligations
of the Parties under this Agreement and each Work Order, Rivian acknowledges and agrees that Amazon reserves the 

  
 4 













 
right to develop and manufacture, itself or through a third party, vehicles, including vehicles that are the same or similar to Delivery Vehicles. When Amazon or its designee is manufacturing a
vehicle for which Rivian is supplying Skateboards or Component Parts that Rivian has agreed to supply under the Work Order, then with respect to Rivian’s Development, Manufacture, supply, and other obligations hereunder or under the Orders,
references to “Product” in this Agreement and all Orders are limited to those Component Parts to be Developed, Manufactured or supplied by Rivian and Spare Parts associated with those Component Parts. The Parties shall cooperate in good
faith to (i) comply with their respective obligations under this Agreement or any Order including regulatory obligations under applicable Laws in the event that Amazon exercises such rights to develop and manufacture vehicles, and
(ii) comply with such regulatory obligations and applicable Laws with respect to the Products or other vehicles or components thereof. 

1.6 Authorized Purchasers. Subject to the requirements of applicable Laws, Amazon may authorize third parties, including any
third-party fleet management companies, leasing companies, and other financing sources, as well as partners from the Amazon Delivery Service Partner program and other licensees (“Authorized Purchasers”) to purchase Products and certain
Services under this Agreement from Rivian; provided, however, as a condition to Rivian’s obligation to sell the Products or applicable Services to Authorized Purchasers, Amazon must deliver to Rivian a written authorization identifying the
third party as an Authorized Purchaser and affirming the Authorized Purchaser is in compliance with the warranties and covenants set forth in the second sentence of Section 16.1(B). When an Authorized Purchaser purchases or requests to purchase
Products under this Agreement or Services that are delivered after the sale of the Products under this Agreement, Amazon will submit the Purchase Order on behalf of the Authorized Purchaser, and only those provisions of this Agreement related to the
purchase of the Products and any post-sale Service obligations of Rivian will govern and be enforceable by an Authorized Purchaser. For the avoidance of doubt, each Service that Rivian has agreed to provide on a Delivery Vehicle or other Product
Manufactured by Rivian, in each case, following the delivery of such Delivery Vehicle or Product will be provided on such Delivery Vehicle or Product regardless of whether the Products are purchased or leased by Amazon, or its Affiliates, or
Authorized Purchasers. No other agreements Rivian or its Affiliates may have with the Authorized Purchasers with respect to the matters governed by this Agreement, an Order, or a separate services agreement between Rivian and Amazon will apply,
unless otherwise agreed in writing by Amazon. The only warranty provided to an Authorized Purchaser by Rivian will be the Rivian Warranty, and the only liability of Rivian to an Authorized Purchaser will be under the Rivian Warranty or any other
liability Rivian would have as a manufacturer under applicable Law, provided, for the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing does not limit Rivian’s obligations to Amazon or Amazon’s rights with respect to Products sold to Authorized Purchasers
under this Agreement. Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, Authorized Purchasers may not issue Purchase Orders and Authorized Purchasers are not entitled to enter into Work Orders. Authorized Purchasers are responsible for their own
purchases and payments to Rivian, and for all their other actions or omissions; provided, however, that Amazon hereby agrees to be responsible for payments for Products or Services due to Rivian by each Authorized Purchaser and such payments will be
made by Amazon to Rivian on the applicable payment terms for such Products or Services following Rivian’s notice to Amazon that an Authorized Purchaser has failed to make the required payment; provided further, however, Amazon is only required
to pay for Products and Services purchased by the Authorized Purchasers to the extent Amazon would be required to pay for the same Products and Services if those were purchased directly by Amazon. Without limiting any other obligations under the
Agreement, if Rivian provides any notice to Authorized Purchasers, Rivian will provide a copy of such notice to Amazon as well. Any dispute or disagreement with an Authorized Purchaser pertaining to this Agreement will be handled between Rivian and
Amazon. Authorized Purchasers are not authorized to act on Amazon’s behalf except to the extent, if 

  
 5 













 
any, expressly authorized by Amazon in writing and, in any event, only to exercise their rights to purchase Products and receive Services under the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of
doubt, Authorized Purchasers may not enter into an Order, modify any Requirements, amend this Agreement, request Changes, or take any other action not described above under this Agreement without the Parties’ prior written consent; provided,
however, Amazon may enforce all terms and conditions under this Agreement on behalf of such Authorized Purchasers. 
 1.7 Extension to
Affiliates. If an Affiliate of Amazon becomes a Party to this Agreement by executing an Order, in addition to the provisions of Section 1.6: (a) references to Amazon in this Agreement are deemed to include such Affiliate; (b) each
Order is a separate obligation of the Amazon entity or entities that execute(s) the applicable Work Order or issue(s) the applicable Purchase Order; provided, however, that Amazon hereby agrees to be responsible for all payments due to Rivian under
any Order by each Affiliate of Amazon, and Amazon will, promptly upon request by Rivian, pay to Rivian the balance of each such Affiliate in full in the event that such Affiliate has not paid any outstanding balance due to Rivian on or prior to the
applicable due date. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) multiple Purchase Orders may be issued under a single Work Order, and each Purchase Order may be issued by a different Amazon Affiliate, and (ii) Orders may only be issued by Affiliates
of Amazon who would be entitled to an assignment of this Agreement pursuant to Section 16.4(A). 
 1.8 Skateboard; Component Part
Only. If the Parties agree in any Order that Rivian will only supply the Skateboard or other Component Parts and not the entire Delivery Vehicle to Amazon, then with respect to such supply of the Skateboard or other Component Parts: 

(A) All provisions of this Agreement, any Work Order, any other Contract Document or applicable Laws relating to Field Actions, homologation,
certification, Field Issues, Governmental Investigations, and any other regulatory requirements (including related record keeping and reporting) will extend to Rivian solely in connection with Rivian’s role as a manufacturer and a supplier of
the Skateboards and/or other Component Parts as are supplied by Rivian. 
 (B) Pursuant to Section 3.7 below, Rivian will reasonably
cooperate, at no cost or expense to Rivian, with Amazon or any third party designated by Amazon with respect to the Integration of the Skateboard with the Top Hat or any other top hat for the assembly of the delivery vehicle; provided, however, if
(i) the Integration of the Skateboard with the Top Hat or other top hat requires any engineering, design, development, or certification, and (ii) Amazon requests that Rivian provide such engineering, design, development, or certification,
then the Parties will negotiate in good faith a separate services agreement governing Rivian’s performance of those activities and Amazon’s payment for same. In addition, Rivian will continue to be responsible for any independent
regulatory obligations (such as TREAD Act reporting obligations) that Rivian may have as the manufacturer and supplier of the Skateboards or other Component Parts, and shall provide such information and assistance as Amazon may reasonably request
relating to such Skateboards or other Component Parts in order to comply with Amazon’s regulatory obligations with respect to the Delivery Vehicles. 
  

	2.	 SERVICES OVERVIEW. 



2.1 Services Generally. Rivian will perform the Services in accordance with the provisions of applicable Orders or separate
services agreement, as applicable. Unless otherwise expressly set forth in an applicable Order or separate services agreement, Rivian will procure and provide its own Personnel, equipment, tools, and other resources and materials required to perform
the Services at Rivian’s own 

  
 6 













 
expense. If any services, functions or responsibilities not specifically described in this Agreement are an inherent or necessary part of the Services, or are required for proper performance or
provision of the Services in accordance with this Agreement, such services, functions or responsibilities will be included within the scope of the Services under the applicable Work Order as if such services, functions or responsibilities were
specifically described in this Agreement (unless expressly designated in writing by Amazon to be the responsibility of Amazon). 
 2.2
Certification and Regulatory Requirements. Rivian is responsible for obtaining all Authorizations in accordance with the Work Order, unless a Work Order expressly sets forth an Authorization for which Amazon is responsible. To the extent such
Authorizations are not self-certifying, Rivian will submit to Amazon sufficient proof of its receipt of such Authorizations (or if such Authorizations are denied, its efforts to seek such Authorizations) and will affix on the appropriate area of
each Product a label stating such Authorizations, if and as required by applicable Laws. In jurisdictions where self- certification is required, the affixing on the appropriate area of each Product of a label attesting to certification to said
jurisdiction’s requirements shall be sufficient evidence of such Authorization. Rivian will perform all acts necessary to maintain the foregoing Authorizations throughout the term of this Agreement and will promptly seek any other
Authorizations in accordance with the Work Orders or as may be required by Laws. If Rivian is unable to obtain or maintain the Authorizations set forth in this Section 2.2, Rivian will consult with Amazon and keep Amazon informed of the status
of obtaining and maintaining such Authorizations, Rivian’s communications with Governmental Authorities and other third parties regarding such Authorizations, and any inquiries received by Rivian from Governmental Authorities relating to its
inability to obtain or maintain such Authorizations or relating to the compliance of Rivian’s activities under the Agreement and the Products with Law. Upon request, Rivian will share with Amazon any documentation or correspondence relating to
any of the foregoing as promptly as possible. 
 2.3 Status Reports. To the extent set forth in an applicable Work Order,
Rivian will provide to Amazon, in the timeframe set forth in the Work Order, written status reports describing in reasonable detail the status of Rivian’s activities hereunder, and Rivian agrees to provide Amazon written notice of any problems
or difficulties encountered or anticipated in connection with such activities, including any inability or anticipated inability to comply with any Order or any other requirements under this Agreement (including any inability or anticipated inability
to meet the schedule or delivery dates). In addition, at any time upon reasonable request by Amazon, Rivian will meet with Amazon representatives to discuss the status of Rivian’s activities hereunder and any related questions and issues. 

2.4 Support Services. 

(A) Technical and Product Support. Rivian will correct all Errors and provide all Software Updates with respect to Products in
accordance with the Work Orders [***]. Any Software Update pertaining to custom Software that Rivian has created specifically for Amazon will be set out in a Work Order or otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties. Any Software Updates made
available by Rivian under this Agreement will be deemed part of the Software and will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. To the extent Rivian licenses some or all of the Software and/or other components of the Software from
third-party vendors, Rivian will remain responsible for having such vendor correct all Errors and make available Software Updates to Amazon in accordance with this Agreement (such updates, “Vendor Updates”). Vendor
Updates will be deemed part of the Software and will be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Amazon, and not Rivian, will be responsible for correcting any Errors in the Amazon LMT. 

  
 7 













 (B) Malware; Security Vulnerabilities. 

(i) Without limiting Rivian’s obligations under the InfoSec Policy, Rivian will (a) implement and maintain the most
current available anti-malware software that is standard in the automotive industry, and (b) take such other steps as are standard in the automotive industry, in each case, to mitigate against security vulnerabilities and malware in the
Products that are or reasonably should have been detected. 
 (ii) Amazon will, with respect to the Amazon LMT provided by
Amazon for incorporation into the Products: (a) implement and maintain the most current available anti- malware software that is standard for logistics software, and (b) take such other steps as are standard for logistics software, in each
case, to mitigate against security vulnerabilities and malware in the Products that are or reasonably should have been detected. 
 (C)
Support Services. Rivian will perform Support Services in addition to those set forth in Section 2.4(A) above, as agreed in a Work Order or separate services agreements entered into by the Parties. 

 

	3.	 DEVELOPMENT SERVICES. 



3.1 Development Services, Generally. This Section 3 will apply to the Development Services performed for Amazon. Rivian will
perform the Development Services and Develop the Development Deliverables as set forth in this Agreement, including the applicable Work Order. Rivian may use Technology and information used with its other products and services in performing
hereunder. 
 3.2 Research, Development, and Product Design. 

(A) Without limiting Rivian’s other obligations under this Agreement, except as expressly agreed otherwise in a Work Order, as between
the Parties, Rivian and/or its Affiliates will be responsible for all research, design, styling, Development, Dedicated Tooling, and other engineering work for the Products and Services under this Agreement including testing, validation and
certification, together with all labor, material, and other resources for completion of the activities related to any of the foregoing (the “Engineering Work”). When Rivian is Manufacturing the Top Hat, the Engineering
Work for the Top Hat (and visible Component Parts therein) will conform to the styling direction provided by Amazon in a Work Order. 
 (B)
Subject to the provisions of the Work Order, Rivian will complete the Engineering Work (including delivery to Amazon of all Development Deliverables, Documentation, and test results) in accordance with the milestones and schedules set forth in the
applicable Work Order and in the format agreed to by the Parties. Except for any delays agreed to by the Parties in a Work Order that will extend the time of performance, time is of the essence in performance of Engineering Work, and any rights to
terminate the Agreement, or obligations prior to termination of the Agreement, based on delays in the Engineering Work are governed by the applicable terms and conditions governing Cancellation Conditions in the Work Order; provided, however, the
foregoing does not limit any non-termination right or remedy based on delays in the performance of Engineering Work. 

  
 8 













 (C) Development Deliverables (non-tangible and tangible) will be delivered in accordance
with the applicable Work Order(s). For outbound transportation, Rivian will ship tangible Development Deliverables, if any, at Amazon’s cost and expense as set forth in this Section 3.2(C) below either using carriers identified by Amazon
or, absent such identification, using suitable carriers that are licensed and qualified based on industry standards to ship such Development Deliverables. The costs and expenses of such outbound transportation expenses will be passed through to
Amazon by Rivian, are not included in the Price [***]. 
 3.3 Development Deliverables Inspection, Test, and Acceptance.
Development Deliverables will be subject to inspection, testing, and acceptance in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Work Order. If no acceptance process or acceptance criteria are identified in a Work Order for one or more
Development Deliverables, such Development Deliverables will be subject to a mutually agreed upon acceptance process for compliance with the applicable requirements for such Development Deliverables. 

3.4 Access to and Inspection of the Rivian Manufacturing Facilities. Without limiting any of Amazon’s rights under the
Agreement, and at Amazon’s sole risk and expense, Amazon or its approved designees will have the right to access and conduct inspections of all facilities and equipment used by Rivian for, and records pertaining to Rivian’s, Manufacture of
the Products or provision of the Services or Rivian’s other activities under this Agreement solely in order to verify Rivian’s compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In connection with such access and inspection, the
Parties will endeavor to minimize to the extent reasonably practicable disruption of any on-going operations of Rivian at the foregoing facilities (including the Rivian Manufacturing Facility). Rivian reserves
the right to have Amazon or its designees performing such inspections, as a condition to such access and inspection (i) take any reasonably required safety training, and (ii) execute a confidentiality agreement; provided, however, such
confidentiality agreement will only be required for those Amazon’s designees or employees that are not subject to the NDA. In no event is Rivian required to provide Amazon or its designees access to any portion of the Rivian Manufacturing
Facility that contains confidential information of other customers of Rivian or other confidential information of Rivian unrelated to this Agreement; provided, however, if any confidential information of a Rivian customer is commingled with the
information that Amazon is entitled to under this Agreement, Rivian will take such actions that are necessary to ensure that Amazon is not exposed to and does not have access to such other customer’s confidential information. 

3.5 Pre-Production Delivery Vehicles in the Development, Validation, and Certification
Plan. 
 (A) Development. To the extent set forth in a Work Order, Rivian will build
Pre- Production Delivery Vehicles pursuant to Work Orders to support Development testing, certification testing, and other testing and also for manufacturing trial purposes, to perform quality assurance before
start of Production and for other reasons to ensure start of Production is met to Rivian’s quality standards, which are at least consistent with applicable industry standards (“Development Purposes”). At Amazon’s request,
and subject to applicable Law, the Parties will work together to test any applicable Pre- Production Delivery Vehicles on public roads or under any other conditions with Rivian providing oversight as required
under and in accordance with applicable Law. The requirements and terms and conditions for the Pre-Production Vehicles will be agreed to by the Parties in a Work Order. 

(B) Delivery. Delivery terms for Pre-Production Delivery Vehicles will be set out in the
applicable Work Order. 

  
 9 













 3.6 Development Services Delays. Subject to the other provisions of this
Agreement, including any Work Order, with respect to timeliness of performance, upon becoming aware that it will be unable to meet a milestone set forth in a Work Order or complete a Development Deliverable in accordance with the applicable Work
Order, Rivian will, to the extent such delay is not addressed by a Work Order: (a) notify Amazon promptly (via email and/or telephone) of the anticipated delay (such notification will include the reasons for the anticipated delay and the
proposed revised milestone or delivery date); and (b) implement a remediation plan satisfactory to the Parties to address the delay. If (i) Rivian determines it will not likely meet, or if Rivian has failed to meet, a milestone or complete
a Development Deliverable in accordance with the then-current Project Plan and Schedule set forth in the applicable Work Order and (ii) Rivian’s actions are not otherwise addressed by the Work Order in such an event, at no additional cost
or expense to Amazon and at Amazon’s option, Rivian will assign to the Development Services all additional Subcontractors, Personnel, and other resources necessary to accelerate performance as may be required to achieve the milestone or deliver
the Development Deliverable in a timely manner. 
 3.7 Mutual Cooperation. Each Party will work in good faith with the other
Party and provide to the other such reasonable cooperation as is specified in this Agreement, a Work Order or otherwise agreed in writing, in each case, as is reasonably required to fulfill the objectives of this Agreement. 

 

	4.	 MANUFACTURING AND SUPPLY. 



4.1 Supply Services, Generally. Rivian will Manufacture, test, and deliver Products pursuant to applicable Orders issued by
Amazon and in accordance with the applicable Requirements set forth in an applicable Work Order. Rivian will procure labor and all Component Parts, as required to Manufacture and deliver the Products in accordance with the Work Orders and the
Purchase Orders. Without limiting the foregoing, the Parties will identify in Work Orders the timelines, milestones, and deadlines for Rivian to put in place manufacturing capacity required to support Production of the Products. 

4.2 [***]. 
 4.3 Rivian
Proposed Changes. 
 (A) Significant Changes; Rivian Change Notice. Rivian will document and communicate to Amazon by written
notice all Changes proposed by Rivian that (a) would alter the Specifications for a Product; (b) would alter the Rivian Warranty; (c) could reasonably be expected to impact the Cancellation Conditions; (d) would affect [***]; (e)
will increase the Investment Fee (as defined in Work Order #1); or (f) would otherwise negatively affect compliance with the Requirements (each (a)-(f), a “Significant Change”); or (g) is required by
applicable Law (a “Regulatory Change”). Such notice will identify in reasonable detail such proposed Changes and will include appropriate documentation of: (i) any proposed adjustments in Price of the Products (increase or 


  
 10 













 decrease) on account of the Changes; (ii) the proposed implementation date of the Changes and any
anticipated impact on the Project Plan and Schedule; (iii) the proposed date for the commencement of the effectiveness of the adjustment in Price of Products, if any; (iv) documentation of any changes in investment costs as a result of the
Changes, if any; (v) whether such Change is a Regulatory Change and (vi) such other information as may be required to communicate the Change (each, a “Rivian Change Notice”). 

(B) Amazon Response to Rivian Change Notice Regarding Significant Change. Amazon will, as soon as practicable and in any event within
[***] from the date of Rivian’s delivery of a Rivian Change Notice (the “Change Response Deadline”), respond by either (a) providing written acceptance of the Changes; (b) providing written rejection of the
Significant Changes; or (c) providing a written request for additional information and/or additional time to review the Significant Changes. If Amazon accepts a Rivian Change Notice as set forth in the preceding sentence, Rivian may implement
the Significant Changes to the Products on the terms and conditions provided in the Rivian Change Notice or as otherwise agreed by the Parties. If Amazon does not respond on or before the Change Response Deadline, or if Amazon provides written
notice of rejection of the Significant Changes, the Parties will treat such rejection as a “dispute” under the dispute resolution provisions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 4.3(B) does not apply to
Regulatory Changes, which will be subject to Section 4.5 below. 
 (C) Rivian Changes That Are Not Significant Changes. Rivian
at any time may make Changes that are not Regulatory Changes or Significant Changes without notice to Amazon. 
 4.4 Changes Initiated
by Amazon. Amazon will document and communicate to Rivian all Changes proposed by Amazon by means of a written notice identifying in reasonable detail such proposed Changes (each, an “Amazon Change Notice”).

 (A) Pre-start of Production – Amazon-Requested
Changes. Amazon may request Changes at any time prior to start of Production (but in no case after the applicable Lead Time for each Purchase Order) by providing an Amazon Change Notice to Rivian. Rivian will evaluate the requested Changes and
notify Amazon as soon as practicable and in any event within [***] (or such period of time as the Parties may otherwise agree) of the impact such Changes will have on start of Production timing, Price of the Products, the Rivian Warranty, any other
Product or Service warranty, the Requirements, this Agreement, any Order, and the Cancellation Conditions, if any. Amazon-initiated Changes prior to the start of Production will require the written approval of
Rivian and Amazon before implementation, and the milestones or other deadlines in the Work Order will be modified accordingly. Before implementation of the Change, Amazon and Rivian will also agree upon an adjustment to the Price of the
Products[***], to reflect changes in costs relating to such Change(s). 
 (B) After Start of Production – Amazon Requested
Changes. Following the start of Production, Amazon may propose Changes by providing Rivian an Amazon Change Notice, provided that Amazon delivers such Amazon Change Notice to Rivian prior to the applicable Lead Time for the Products at issue.
Rivian and Amazon will discuss in good faith the feasibility of making such Changes based on complexity, applicable Laws, the parts (including Component Parts), costs, and any other factors that either Party believes to be relevant. Rivian, at its
option, will: (a) initiate the necessary investigation, (b) initiate the Changes, or (c) reject the request, in each case as soon as practicable and in any event within [***] (or such period of time as the Parties may otherwise agree)
after receipt of the 

  
 11 













 Amazon Change Notice. Prior to implementation of any Changes under this Section 4.4(B) the Parties will
agree in writing on the impact on the Cancellation Conditions, any warranties provided by Rivian, timing to deliver the Products incorporating such Change, and the costs of such Change. The costs of all
Amazon- initiated Changes will be paid for by Amazon as set forth in the Work Order [***]. Amazon-initiated Changes will require the written approval of Rivian and
Amazon before implementation. 
 4.5 Regulatory Changes. 

(A) Prior to Start of Production. If Rivian is required to make any Regulatory Change to address a change in Law that has been enacted
prior to start of Production, then, regardless of the date the applicable Law sets for implementation of such Change, Rivian will be responsible for making such Change(s) and [***]. 

(B) After Start of Production. 

(i) If Rivian is required to make a Regulatory Change with respect to Products that have not been delivered to Amazon after the
start of Production, then, subject to Section 4.5(D), [***], and, if this Agreement has not been terminated as a result of Section 4.5(D), Rivian will be responsible for making the Regulatory Changes to such Products. 

(ii) If Rivian is required to make a Regulatory Change with respect to Products that have been delivered to Amazon after the
start of Production, [***], and Rivian will be responsible for making the Regulatory Change on such Products. For the avoidance of doubt, Rivian’s obligations under this Section 4.5(B)(ii) will only apply to Products for a period of [***]
following Rivian’s delivery of the Products to Amazon, its Affiliates, or Authorized Purchasers. 
 (C) Implementation. 

(i) Rivian will provide Amazon with a Rivian Change Notice prior to the implementation of any Regulatory Changes. Rivian will
propose a plan for implementation of any Regulatory Changes, and Rivian and Amazon will discuss in good faith the implementation of Regulatory Changes. The proposed plan of implementation will include, among other things, the cost and expenses of
making such Regulatory Change to the extent the Regulatory Change must be paid by Amazon. 
 (ii) Upon receipt of a proposed
implementation plan from Rivian, Amazon will review and either accept or reject the plan, in each case as soon as practicable and in any event within [***] (or such period of time as the Parties may otherwise agree) after receipt of such plan. If
Amazon does not accept the implementation plan and does not provide an alternative plan within [***] that is acceptable to Rivian, which acceptance will not be unreasonably withheld, then Rivian may implement the Regulatory Change as originally
proposed by Rivian. Rivian will consider in good faith any alternate plan for implementation 

  
 12 













 proposed by Amazon if the same would result in compliance at a lower cost without materially
increasing complexity at the Rivian Manufacturing Facility or otherwise increasing the potential liability to Rivian under this Agreement or applicable Laws. If urgent circumstances require abbreviation of any applicable notice period, the Parties
will work together in good faith to accomplish the resolution of the requested Changes within such abbreviated period. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) this Section 4.5(C) only relates to Regulatory Changes that are Significant Changes, and
(ii) Rivian is not required to implement Regulatory Changes in a manner that will cause Rivian to not comply with applicable Laws; provided, however, the foregoing is not a limitation on Amazon’s rights to terminate the Agreement without
cause. 
 (D) Regulatory Change Termination. With respect to Regulatory Changes governed by Section 4.5(B)(i), (i) the Parties
agree to negotiate in good faith [***]. 
 4.6 Specified Manufacturing Facilities. Except for Component Parts and Spare Parts
(other than Battery cells) that are sourced from third parties, Rivian will manufacture or assemble or have manufactured or assembled the Products only at the Rivian Manufacturing Facility, and use of any other manufacturing facility requires
Amazon’s prior written consent. 
 4.7 Tooling. 

(A) Dedicated Tooling. Rivian will be responsible for purchasing or building or otherwise having Suppliers or other third parties
purchase or build, as applicable, all Dedicated Tooling to Manufacture the Component Parts and assemble the Products. If new or additional Dedicated Tooling is required after start of Production due to a Change, the cost and expenses of the new or
additional Dedicated Tooling will be set forth in an applicable Work Order or as otherwise mutually agreed by the Parties in writing and, following the Parties agreement on such costs and expenses, Rivian or the applicable Supplier will be
responsible for Developing and procuring all such Tooling required to implement the Change. Rivian will bear all costs associated with retooling due to Rivian’s non-compliance with Law. If there are
Changes to Tooling requested by either Party to improve the Products, the costs associated with such Changes to the Tooling must be agreed upon by the Parties in writing and may, if agreed upon by the Parties [***]. All Changes to Tooling that are
the result of a Regulatory Change will be handled in accordance with, and be subject to, Section 4.5. 
 (B) Ownership. Unless
otherwise set forth in an applicable Work Order, Rivian will own the Dedicated Tooling and will be responsible for any and all costs and expenses associated with such Dedicated Tooling. The Parties acknowledge that Work Order #1 provides that the
ownership of Dedicated Top Hat Tooling may be transferred from Rivian to Amazon, subject to the terms and conditions in Work Order #1, and upon such transfer [***]. 

4.8 Reserved. 

  
 13 













 4.9 Spare Parts. All Spare Parts will be sold by Rivian and purchased by
Amazon in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including the applicable Work Order. 
  

	5.	 PRODUCT AND SERVICES ORDERING. 



5.1 Purchase Orders. Products and Services (other than Development Services, which shall be performed as set forth in Work
Orders) may be ordered from Rivian by issuing Purchase Orders or entering into separate services agreements, as applicable. The Purchase Orders will specify the Purchase Order number, the Services ordered, the quantity of Product(s) ordered,
applicable Prices and delivery date(s). Each Purchase Order issued hereunder will reference, and become a part of and be in compliance with this Agreement and the applicable Work Order. Rivian will promptly confirm to Amazon or Authorized Purchasers
its receipt of each Purchase Order and, unless rejected to the extent permitted, will perform the Services and Manufacture and deliver the ordered quantities of Products according to, and subject to, the terms of this Agreement, the applicable Work
Order, and the respective Purchase Order. Unless rejected by Rivian in accordance with this Section 5.1, Section 5.3, or the applicable Work Order, any Purchase Order that complies with this Agreement and the Work Order will be deemed
accepted by Rivian upon receipt and Rivian will supply the Products and perform the Services ordered in accordance with the terms of such Purchase Order. 

5.2 Reserved. 

5.3 Lead Time; Purchase Order Inconsistencies. Except as set otherwise set forth in a Work Order, all Purchase Orders must be
submitted by Amazon or the Authorized Purchasers in accordance with the minimum lead time for delivery of Products as specified in the corresponding Work Order (“Lead Time”). 

5.4 Deliveries; Force Majeure. 

(A) Deliveries. Rivian will deliver each Product in accordance with the delivery terms set forth in the Work Order. Title and risk of
loss to the Products will pass between the Parties as set forth in the Work Order. All deliveries made pursuant to this Agreement must be complete, unless Rivian has obtained prior written approval from Amazon. With respect to all Products delivered
at the Rivian Manufacturing Facility, and to the extent required by Amazon as part of the delivery process, Rivian must obtain the signature of an authorized representative of Amazon on a delivery receipt for all such deliveries made under this
Agreement. Such signature does not constitute Amazon’s acceptance of delivery or acknowledgement of the accuracy of the quantity or type of Products received by Amazon. 

(B) Force Majeure. As used in this Agreement, “Force Majeure” means occurrences or events that are beyond the
reasonable control of a Party, not due to its fault or negligence, and which could not have been avoided, prevented or removed by the exertion of commercially reasonable efforts that are taken by similarly situated Persons. Such occurrences or
events may include: (a) a strike or other labor disturbance; (b) a governmental act or regulation, war, riot, terrorist act, or inordinate transportation delays; or (c) an act of God (including fire, earthquake, and severe weather
conditions (e.g., hurricanes and blizzards)). Neither Party will be liable for, nor be considered to be in breach of or default under this Agreement on account of, any delay or failure to perform as required by this Agreement to the extent that such
failure of, or delay in, performance is due to Force Majeure. The foregoing will be subject to the affected Party giving prompt notice to the other Party of an occurrence of a Force Majeure and continually using reasonable efforts to mitigate the
effects of any Force Majeure, for example by sourcing suitable replacement Component Parts from different upstream suppliers, except that neither Party will be obligated to settle a labor dispute except at its own discretion. The suspension of
performance will be of no greater scope and of no longer duration than is reasonably required by the Force Majeure event. 

  
 14 













 5.5 Transportation. Transportation of the Products will be as set forth in the
applicable Work Order. 
 5.6 Late Delivery. The process for any late deliveries of Products will be set forth in the
applicable Work Orders. 
 5.7 Inspection and Acceptance of the Products. The Products will be inspected, accepted, or
rejected in accordance with the Work Order. All Product warranties will survive any delivery, inspection, acceptance, payment, or subsequent use or authorized repair, in each case, for the duration of the warranty period for such Product. 

5.8 Reserved. 
 5.9
Remedies for Failure to Deliver Conforming Product and Breach of Any Warranty. Without limiting any other right or remedy as set forth in the Agreement, all remedies for failure to deliver Conforming Product and breach of any warranty
are set forth in the Work Order. 
  

	6.	 QUALITY MANAGEMENT; GOVERNMENTAL INVESTIGATIONS. 



6.1 Quality Management. Rivian will implement and maintain a quality assurance and reliability plan covering all Products and
Services that is reasonably satisfactory to Amazon and that complies with Amazon’s reasonable quality assurance requirements for the Products or Services, which plan and requirements are provided to Rivian from time to time (and in all cases
prior to the applicable Lead Time). Rivian will be subject to quality reviews by Amazon and will work with Amazon to improve Rivian’s quality programs, based on the outcome of the reviews. 

6.2 Investigation of Field Issues. 

(A) The Parties acknowledge and agree that it is in their mutual best interest to promptly identify and address safety, product, performance
or service issues that may exist in all or a defined subset of Products or Services and that may involve a potential safety defect or noncompliance with any safety or emission control requirement under applicable Law, including any federal motor
vehicle safety standard or governmental emissions control standard or regulation (“Field Issues”). 
 (B)
[***]. 
 (C) Subject to the terms of any Joint Defense Agreement and any applicable Legal Redactions, Rivian agrees to keep Amazon promptly
and reasonably informed about the status of any ongoing investigation of any Field Issues by Rivian and any Government Reports made by Rivian that may include information about Field Issues provided by Amazon. 

6.3 Field Actions. 

(A) Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, Rivian or its Affiliates will be responsible for deciding when a Field Action involving some or
all of the Products is reasonably necessary to address a Field Issue or other Non-Conformity, and Rivian will be responsible for conducting such a Field Action on the Products. If Amazon requests that Rivian
initiate a Service Campaign and Rivian consents to conducting such Service Campaign, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, Rivian will be solely responsible 

  
 15 













 
for all costs and expenses incurred by Rivian to conduct such Service Campaign; provided, however, it will not be unreasonable to withhold consent if the projected costs of the Service Campaign
outweigh the projected benefits. If Rivian does not consent to the Service Campaign as provided in the previous sentence, Amazon may request Rivian to perform the Service Campaign; provided, however, Amazon will be responsible for the costs and
expenses of such Service Campaign unless otherwise agreed by the Parties. 
 (B) If Rivian has decided to conduct a Field Action, Rivian
will prepare and send all required notices, bulletins, and other communications regarding defects or non-compliance in the Products to Service Retailers, Amazon, and, with such support from Amazon as Rivian
reasonably requests, Delivery Vehicle owners or lessees. 
 6.4 Reimbursement for Field Actions. Rivian will reimburse Amazon
for all penalties imposed by a Governmental Authority on Amazon in connection with any Field Action to the extent caused by the Products or Services; provided, however, Rivian is not responsible for any such penalties, and Amazon shall reimburse
Rivian for any such penalties imposed by a Governmental Authority, in each case, to the extent caused by: [***] (an “Amazon Covered Claim”). In addition, any Field Actions required by Governmental Authorities, where the Field Action
(i) results from a failure of the Products or Services to meet governmental requirements and standards for vehicle validation or certification other than in the applicable Authorized Territory, (ii) results from a change in applicable Laws
which renders the Products or Services noncompliant with such applicable Laws despite such Products or Services being compliant with the Specifications for such Authorized Territory as of the date of manufacture, or (iii) is intended to address
a Field Issue arising from a condition unique to the jurisdictions in which the Field Action is conducted despite such vehicles being compliant with the Specifications as of the date of manufacture, will be the responsibility of the applicable
manufacturer (Rivian, Amazon, or a third party) based on the affected parts or components of the affected vehicles and only to the extent the applicable manufacturer would be responsible under applicable Laws. 

  
 16 













 6.5 Governmental Investigations. 

(A) Each Party will promptly notify the other Party upon the receipt of a Governmental Investigation. If Amazon receives such an inquiry from
a Governmental Authority about one or more Products or Services, Amazon will refer that inquiry to Rivian for a response unless Amazon is considered the final stage manufacturer and/or incomplete vehicle manufacturer under applicable Law with
respect to the affected vehicles or unless the inquiry is solely with respect to a part or component not manufactured or authorized by Rivian or its Affiliates that was added to the Product after delivery to Amazon (or its agent or representative).

 (B) Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties based on their respective regulatory responsibilities under applicable Law, Rivian will
represent the interests of both Amazon and Rivian in connection with any request for any data or information and any allegations or inquiries from Governmental Authorities concerning suspected or alleged safety defects or noncompliance with any
governmental safety standard or regulation, emissions-control standard or other applicable regulation in an Authorized Territory relating to the Products and Services, or other applicable Law relating to any Product or Service, unless the request,
allegation or inquiry relates to (i) manufacture of the top hat by Amazon or its designated third-party manufacturers or (ii) licensing, registering, or titling of Delivery Vehicles by Amazon, its Affiliates or Authorized Purchaser except
to the extent the request, allegation or inquiry relates to any limitations on licensing, registering or titling that arises from state dealership laws (each, an “Amazon Regulatory Responsibility”); provided, that each Party will
promptly notify the other Party in writing upon its receipt of any such request and shall keep the other Party reasonably informed of the status and nature of its response to such request. To the extent any such request from Governmental Authorities
would reasonably be expected to result in an adverse impact on a Party’s rights or interests, the other Party will consult with such Party regarding such request and in good faith consider such Party’s positions, suggestions, and
strategies for preparing the response. 
 (C) Unless otherwise agreed by the Parties based on their respective regulatory responsibilities
under applicable Law, Rivian may conduct meetings with Governmental Authorities related to the Products and Services without any participation by Amazon unless the meeting relates to (i) an Amazon Regulatory Responsibility (in which case, Amazon
will participate to represent its own interests) or (ii) suspected or alleged safety defects or noncompliance with any governmental safety standard or regulation, emissions-control standard or other applicable regulation in an Authorized
Territory relating to the Products and Services, or other applicable Law relating to any Product or Service and Rivian has made reasonable efforts to have Amazon participate in such meetings. Amazon will not conduct any meeting with Governmental
Authorities concerning the Products and Services without participation by Rivian, unless such meeting relates to an Amazon Regulatory Responsibility and does not relate to Rivian’s Manufacture of such Products and delivery of the Services. If
Governmental Authorities are in discussions with either Party on unrelated matters and raise an issue related to the Products and Services, the non-participating Party will act in good faith to postpone any
substantive discussions related to the Products and Services so that the other Party can participate if its interests may be impacted by those discussions. If a Party is not permitted to participate in the meetings contemplated by this
Section 6.5(C), then the other Party will fully and promptly brief such Party following every such meeting that such Party conducts with Governmental Authorities unless such meeting relates to an Amazon Regulatory Responsibility and does not
relate to Rivian’s Manufacture or delivery of such Products and Services. 

  
 17 













 6.6 Continuing Information Support. To the extent necessary to provide support
for legal, administrative or other proceedings (including any indemnification obligations under this Agreement) with respect to a third party which relates to the other Party’s performance under this Agreement, the Parties agree as follows:

 (A) Except as otherwise limited by this Agreement (including Section 6.2(B)), each Party may request reasonable access to or copies
of documents, records, or other information (collectively, “Information”) from the other Party in connection with any legal, administrative or other proceedings relating to this Agreement (including any involving a Governmental
Authority or a Governmental Investigation). The receiving Party agrees to maintain such Information in the strictest confidence, to the full extent permissible by Law, and agrees it may only use the Information solely in connection with the
applicable legal, administrative, or other proceeding. In the event the receiving Party is requested to disclose such Information in connection with any judicial proceeding or Governmental Investigation, the receiving Party will timely notify the
other Party, and the Parties will mutually agree upon whether to attempt to protect the Information by seeking a protective order from the appropriate court, confidential treatment from the appropriate government agency, or otherwise, and if so,
which Party will do so. 
 (B) With respect to any legal, administrative, or other proceedings involving the safety or regulatory compliance
of the Products or Services, each Party will use commercially reasonable efforts to make available to the other, upon written request, its employees as witnesses to the extent that the participation of any such employee is reasonably necessary
(giving consideration to the business demands upon such employees) in connection with any legal, administrative, or other proceedings in which the requesting Party may from time to time be involved. 

6.7 Epidemic Failure. 

(A) If Rivian becomes aware that an Epidemic Failure has occurred, Rivian will provide notice to Amazon and will also assist Amazon and its
designees in the technical resolution of the Epidemic Failure. 
 (B) [***]. Rivian will consult with Amazon and its designees regarding the
remediation plan, any workaround or other solutions and will not implement such remediation plan, workaround or solution without Amazon’s prior written approval. Rivian will also give related technical support at no charge as Amazon reasonably
requests. 
 6.8 [***]. 

6.9 Safety Risks. 

(A) Generally. Rivian must notify Amazon immediately if it has reason to believe that any Products provided under this Agreement may
(a) present a Hazard, or (b) result in Rivian’s non- compliance with applicable Laws (including safety and environmental Laws). 

(B) Remedies. If a Product does or will present a Hazard, Rivian will, in addition to its obligations under this Section 6, comply
with all of its obligations as a manufacturer of such Products under applicable Laws and provide Amazon all the remedies Amazon is entitled to under applicable Laws, by either: 

(i) if required to address the Hazard and subject to applicable Laws, promptly repair, replace or accept the return of (and
credit Amazon for) affected Products; or 

  
 18 













 (ii) promptly provide free replacements and Spare Parts for the Products
during the Warranty Period or for the period required by applicable Laws, as applicable. 
 (C) No Relief. Neither Amazon’s
verification or approval of materials or vendors nor Amazon’s approval or acceptance of Products will relieve Rivian of the remedies set forth in this Section 6.9. 

(D) Tracking. Rivian must track the Products in accordance with the Requirements set forth in the applicable Work Order, including the
manufacture date of the Products, Production equipment used, testing values, and upstream material lots. Rivian must make such information available to Amazon upon Amazon’s request during the term of this Agreement and for fifteen
(15) years after the creation of the information. 
 (E) Recall Obligations. Rivian is responsible for performing all Recalls at
its sole cost and expense, except to the extent any such Recall results from a safety-related defect or non-compliance with applicable safety standard that is caused by a defect in design or performance of
technology provided by Amazon that the Parties have agreed will be incorporated by Rivian into the Product, in which case Amazon will reimburse Rivian for all costs and expenses of the Recall attributable to the defect in design or performance of
technology provided by Amazon. If Amazon or any Person other than Rivian or any of its Affiliates is the final-stage manufacturer of a delivery or logistics vehicle or is otherwise considered the manufacturer of a delivery or logistics vehicle by
Law, in each case where such vehicle incorporates a Skateboard, Amazon is responsible at its sole cost and expense for performing any and all voluntary or 

  
 19 













 mandatory notification and remedy campaigns to correct any safety defect or emission-related issue with such
vehicle, in each case, requiring remedy under applicable Laws, except to the extent such defect or issue caused by a defect in or emissions-related issue with the Skateboard, in which case Rivian will reimburse Amazon for those costs and expenses of
the notification and remedy campaign that are attributable to such defect or issue. If there is a conflict between this Section 6.9(E) and any other provision of this Agreement, this Section 6.9(E) will control to the extent of such
conflict. 
  

	7.	 INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR; SUBCONTRACTORS; RIVIAN PERSONNEL. 



7.1 Relationship. The Parties are independent contractors and this Agreement will not be construed to create a partnership, joint
venture, agency, employment or any other relationship between Rivian on the one hand and Amazon on the other hand. Neither Party will represent itself to be an employee, representative or agent of the other Party. Neither Party will have the
authority to enter into any agreement on the other Party’s behalf or in the other Party’s name or otherwise bind the other Party to any agreement or obligation. Without limiting the implied obligation of good faith, each Party agrees that,
in its respective dealings with the other Party under or in connection with this Agreement or any Order, it will act in good faith. 
 7.2
Subcontractors, Suppliers, and Third Party Manufacturer. 
 (A) Subcontractors. In performing its activities or
obligations under this Agreement, Rivian may use Subcontractors; provided that for categories of Subcontractors that (a) require Amazon’s prior written consent or (b) require prior notice to be delivered to Amazon, in each case, as
set forth in applicable Work Orders, such approval or notice is obtained or provided. The Parties may agree on the lists of Subcontractors that meet the requirements under the preceding clauses (a) and (b) in applicable Work Orders from time to
time. For all Subcontractors, Rivian must: (i) ensure that such Subcontractors enter into written agreements with Rivian that contain terms consistent with this Agreement (including those regarding confidentiality, use restrictions, tooling,
intellectual property, records and inspection, compliance with Laws, Amazon Policies, Amazon Background IP, and Spare Parts) and (ii) deliver a copy of each such agreement to Amazon upon request; provided, however, Rivian will be permitted to
redact any portion of such agreement that is not applicable to Amazon or includes confidential information of another Rivian customer. If so requested by Amazon, Rivian agrees that Amazon may enter into an agreement with such Subcontractor, in a
form satisfactory to Amazon, that contains terms regarding intellectual property, confidentiality, and compliance with applicable Laws on terms consistent with this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Amazon’s entry into the foregoing
agreement is not a condition for Rivian to engage with the Subcontractor. In addition, Rivian will ensure that Subcontractors are bound by applicable service level agreements and other terms and requirements, as required for Rivian to comply with
its obligations under this Agreement. Any act or omission of a Subcontractor with respect to those obligations applicable to the Subcontractor that would be a breach of this Agreement if it were an act or omission of Rivian will constitute a breach
of this Agreement by Rivian. In addition, Rivian hereby consents to Amazon’s direct engagement of any of Rivian’s Subcontractors in connection with any transition services that Rivian may provide to Amazon (whether during or after the
Term), and Rivian agrees to communicate such consent to its Subcontractors upon request by Amazon. 
 (B) Suppliers. In performing
its activities or obligations under this Agreement to provide Component Parts (including any Component Parts included in a Product), Rivian will use Suppliers. If there are categories of Suppliers that (a) require Amazon’s prior written
consent or (b) require prior notice to be delivered to Amazon, in each case, as set forth in applicable Work Orders, such approval or 

  
 20 













 notice must be obtained or provided. The Parties may agree on the lists of Suppliers that meet the
requirements under the preceding clauses (a) and (b) in applicable Work Orders from time to time. Upon Amazon’s request, Rivian will provide Amazon with copies of the Supply Agreements with such Suppliers; provided, however, Rivian will be
permitted to redact any portion of such agreement that is not applicable to Amazon or includes confidential information of another Rivian customer. For the avoidance of doubt, Amazon will be entitled to review all the parts of the Supply Agreement
related to the Products. 
 (C) Third Party Manufacturer. If Amazon or an Affiliate of Amazon engages a third party (including an
Auto OEM) to manufacture or have manufactured a delivery vehicle that incorporates the Skateboard or otherwise uses Rivian’s Background IP then, in addition to the terms set forth in the Work Order, Amazon must ensure that such third parties
enter into written agreements with Amazon that contain terms consistent with this Agreement regarding confidentiality, use restrictions, tooling, intellectual property, and Rivian’s Background IP. If so requested by Rivian, Amazon agrees that
Rivian may enter into an agreement with such third party, in a form satisfactory to Rivian, that contain terms regarding intellectual property, confidentiality, and compliance with applicable Laws on terms consistent with this Agreement. For the
avoidance of doubt, Rivian’s entry into the foregoing agreement is not a condition for Amazon to exercise any right or remedy under this Agreement. Any act or omission of a third party with respect to those obligations to be performed by such
third party that would be a breach of this Agreement if it were an act or omission of Amazon will constitute a breach of this Agreement by Amazon. 

7.3 Personnel. Rivian will retain full control over the manner in which it performs Services. Each Party will retain
(a) exclusive control over its and its Affiliates’ Personnel; (b) exclusive control over its labor and employee relations and its policies relating to wages, hours, working conditions and other employment conditions; and
(c) exclusive right to hire, transfer, suspend, lay off, recall, promote, discipline, discharge, and adjust grievances with its Personnel. Each Party is solely responsible for all salaries and other compensation of its Personnel who provide
services with respect to the matters contemplated by this Agreement, and for making all deductions and withholdings from such Personnel’s salaries and other compensation and paying all contributions, taxes, and assessments. Neither Party nor
such Party’s Personnel are entitled to or eligible to participate in any workers’ compensation, retirement, insurance, stock options, or any other benefits afforded to Personnel of the other Party. Each Party will be solely responsible for
all theft, damage, and/or misconduct related to such Party’s Personnel. Nothing in this Section 7.3 will limit Amazon’s right to approve Subcontractors pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement. 

7.4 Key Personnel. Rivian will identify certain Personnel (“Key Personnel”) for any Development Services
contemplated under the corresponding Work Order. Except (i) replacement or reassignment pursuant to Amazon’s prior written consent (which will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed); (ii) the Key Personnel’s voluntary
resignation from Rivian; (iii) dismissal (with or without cause) of the Key Personnel by Rivian; (iv) any vacation or leave of the Key Personnel (including any leave Rivian is required by applicable Laws to provide the Key Personnel or the
Key Personnel has under Rivian’s applicable employment policies); or (v) the inability of the Key Personnel to work due to sickness or disability, Rivian will not remove or temporarily reassign any Key Personnel: (a) without providing
at least ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Amazon; and (b) until such time as the Parties have agreed to a replacement Personnel. If Rivian replaces or reassigns any Key Personnel as permitted hereunder, the proposed replacement
personnel will possess comparable experience and training as the individual whom Rivian proposes to replace. Rivian will use reasonable efforts to avoid a vacancy or gap in the position of Key Personnel. Upon Amazon’s request, Rivian will
remove any specified individual within the Key Personnel and replace such individual with another available employee who can fill such role until such time there is a replacement that is reasonably acceptable to Amazon.

terms of this Agreement. 
 8.2 Term of Order. The term of each applicable Order will commence on the effective date of the
applicable Order and will continue for the term as set out in such applicable Order, unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Order (including, in the case of a Purchase Order, pursuant to the terms of the
Work Order under which such Purchase Order was issued). 
 8.3 Termination for Convenience. If at any time all Work Orders and
Purchase Orders have been terminated in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the applicable Order(s), or there are otherwise no Work Orders or Purchase Orders outstanding, either Party may terminate this Agreement for convenience with not
less than ninety (90) days’ prior written notice to other Party without penalty or liability. 
 8.4 Termination for
Cause. Excluding any breach that is the subject of a Cancellation Condition (for which the exclusive right to terminate the Agreement is pursuant to the Work Order), either Party may terminate this Agreement (excluding any Order) immediately
by written notice to the other Party (and specifying the effective date of such termination) (the “Final Termination Notice”) if the other Party materially breaches any term of this Agreement (excluding any Order) and does not cure
such breach within sixty (60) days after receipt of written notice from the non-breaching Party of the breach stating the non-breaching Party’s intent to
terminate; provided, that (a) for breaches that are not capable of being cured, the Final Termination Notice must be delivered to the breaching Party no later than ninety (90) days following the expiration of such sixty (60)-day period, and (b) for breaches that are capable of being cured, neither Party may exercise such termination right with respect to a given breach if a Party has cured such breach before receiving the
Final Termination Notice. 
 8.5 Termination for Insolvency. Either Party may terminate this Agreement or any Order upon the
other Party experiencing a Solvency Event. 
 8.6 Termination for Change of Control. 

(A) In the event that Rivian consummates any Change of Control prior to the start of Production of the Delivery Vehicles in accordance with
Work Order #1 and Amazon does not provide its written consent to such Change of Control prior to the consummation thereof, Amazon will have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate this Agreement (and all outstanding Work Orders and Purchase
Orders) in whole and not in part by delivery of notice thereof to Rivian no later than [***]. 
 (B) In the event that Rivian consummates
any Non-OEM Change of Control following the start of Production of the Delivery Vehicles in accordance with Work Order #1 and Amazon does not provide its written consent to such Change of Control prior to the
consummation thereof, Amazon will have the right, but not the obligation, to terminate this Agreement (and all outstanding Work Orders and Purchase Orders) in whole and not in part by delivery of notice thereof to Rivian no later than [***]. 

  
 22 













 (C) For the avoidance of doubt, in no event will consent in the form of the affirmative vote
or consent of Amazon and/or any of its Affiliates or employees in their capacities as shareholders or directors of Rivian or any of its Affiliates be deemed to be Amazon’s prior written consent for purposes of Sections 8.6(A), 8.6(B) or 8.6(C).

 (D) Any Work Order(s) entered into by the Parties after Work Order #1 may set out additional provisions relating to Change of Control
transactions. 
 8.7 Termination for Force Majeure. If Rivian is unable to perform any material portion of its obligations
hereunder or under an Order as a result of a Force Majeure for a period of one-hundred and twenty (120) consecutive days, Amazon (if not then in default of any of its obligations under this Agreement)
may, at its option and without liability other than as expressly set forth in a Work Order, terminate an Order or Orders and/or this Agreement upon providing notice of termination to Rivian. 

8.8 Effect of Termination. Upon receipt or delivery (as applicable) of a termination or cancellation notice under this
Section 8, (i) Rivian will take the following actions: (a) unless otherwise specified by Amazon, immediately stop delivery of Products and Services to the extent relating to the terminated portion of this Agreement or the applicable Order;

Amazon’s property (whether Technology, equipment, tooling or other property of Amazon) that is in Rivian’s possession or control pertaining to the terminated or cancelled portion of this Agreement and portions of this Agreement that do not
survive; and (ii) Amazon will take the following actions: deliver to Rivian any and all of Rivian’s property that Amazon does not have a right or license (whether Technology, equipment, tooling, or other property of Rivian) pertaining to
the terminated or cancelled portion of this Agreement and portions of this Agreement that do not survive. Notwithstanding any termination or expiration of this Agreement or an Order, this Agreement will continue to govern the rights and obligations
of the Parties under any Orders that are outstanding on the date of such termination or expiration until performance of the Parties’ respective obligations under such Orders is completed, or such Orders are terminated by a Party in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, a Purchase Order will survive the termination or expiration of a Work Order and a Work Order will survive the termination or expiration of the Agreement, unless such Purchase Order or
Work Order is otherwise terminated at the time of such termination.

arising under this Agreement. Amazon will maintain the right to deduct or withhold any taxes that Amazon determines it is obligated to withhold from any amounts payable to Rivian under this Agreement, and Amazon will provide Rivian written notice of
such amounts along with an explanation in detail of the basis for such deduction or withholding. If the Parties disagree on the amount of taxes to be withheld, such dispute will be subject to Section 16.8 of this Agreement. Throughout the term of

Products); and (b) required under applicable Laws to be collected from Amazon with respect to Products purchased under this Agreement for which such fees are applicable.

its own costs and expenses related to the performance and completion of its responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement or any other Contract Document and the preparation, execution, and delivery of this Agreement or any other Contract

books and records relating to (a) its sale of Products, (b) its Manufacture of Products, including the cost of Manufacturing the Products, (c) its Development of the Products, including the cost of Developing the Products, and

to, and permit Amazon to examine, the Records, which may be accomplished, at Amazon’s option, through electronic means, the delivery of copies of the requested Records to Amazon’s designated address or onsite at Rivian’s facilities.
Amazon may make and retain copies of all Records examined regardless of which method of access to Records Amazon selects and may document (including through photography and videography) the results of any inspection. If any examination of the
Records reveals that Rivian, or any of its Personnel has failed to comply with any obligation under this Agreement or any Amazon Policy, Rivian will cure the noncompliance as soon as reasonably possible. Rivian will also provide to Amazon any other
information reasonably requested by Amazon to permit Amazon and its Affiliates to comply with Securities and Exchange Commission reporting requirements.

and visitors to Rivian’s facilities, including negligence or improper conduct of any nature or type, including physical, mental or sexual abuse or harassment, invasion of privacy, and violation of civil rights or discrimination;

to the other Party to defend each Claim. An Amazon Indemnitee or Rivian Indemnitee, as applicable, may participate in the defense at its own expense. The indemnified Party will not settle any
Claim without the indemnifying Party’s prior written consent, which may not be unreasonably withheld. Each Party will see that any settlement it makes of any Claim is made confidential, except where not permitted by Law. A Party’s duty to
defend is independent of its duty to indemnify. 
 14.4
Waiver of Certain Immunities, Defenses, and Protections
Relating to Employee Injuries. In connection with any action to enforce obligations under this Section 13.1 with respect to any Claim
arising out of any personal injury (including death) to an employee of a Party, each Party waives any immunity, defense, or protection under any workers’ compensation, industrial insurance, or similar Laws (including the Washington Industrial
Insurance Act, Title 51 of the Revised Code of Washington). This Section 14.4 will not be interpreted or construed as a waiver of either Party’s right to assert any such immunity, defense, or protection directly against any of its own
employees or such employee’s estate or other representatives.

assign all of this Agreement upon notice to Rivian and without Rivian’s prior written consent to an Affiliate of Amazon that (i) is capable of performing the payment obligations of Amazon under this Agreement and (ii) is not a Fee-Bearing Auto OEM. Any attempt to assign in violation of this Section is void in each instance. All the terms and conditions of this Agreement will be binding upon, will inure to the benefit of, and will be
enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 
 (B) Amazon may direct Rivian to send invoices for any
Order issued under this Agreement to a “bill to” entity and address that is different from the “ship to” entity and address. Those directions will not alter the responsibility of Amazon to pay all properly payable amounts on any
such invoice in accordance with the terms of the Work Order and this Agreement if the “bill to” entity does not pay those amounts as set forth in this Agreement. Alternatively, Amazon may assign any Purchase Order issued under this
Agreement, including title to the Products covered by that Purchase Order, to an Authorized Purchaser by providing written notice to Rivian; provided, however, Amazon will remain responsible for payment obligations under such Purchase Order in

 16.5 Rights in Bankruptcy. Rivian agrees, on behalf of itself and its
Affiliates, that Amazon will retain and may fully exercise all rights and licenses under the Agreement in all circumstances, including in any future bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding involving Rivian or any of its Affiliates, whether as licensees
of intellectual property in a case where Rivian is a debtor under the United States Bankruptcy Code (the “U.S. Bankruptcy Code”) or similar laws of other countries, applicable non-bankruptcy
Laws, or otherwise. Without limiting the foregoing, if there is a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding under the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or similar laws of other countries where Rivian is a debtor (including in any proceeding where a trustee is
appointed), Rivian acknowledges and agrees, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, that: if a court of competent jurisdiction approves the rejection of the Agreement under Section 365 of the Bankruptcy Code or similar Laws of other countries,
(a) such rejection will not result in termination of any of Amazon’s rights and licenses under the Agreement; (b) the rights and licenses granted to Amazon under the Agreement will be treated as licenses of “intellectual
property” for purposes of Section 365(n) of the Bankruptcy Code or similar Laws of other countries and, accordingly, Amazon will retain and may fully exercise all of its rights and elections under the Bankruptcy Code or similar Laws of
other countries with respect to the rights and licenses granted to Amazon under the Agreement; and (c) without limiting the foregoing, in the event Amazon elects to retain its rights and licenses under the Agreement, upon written request of
Amazon to Rivian or any trustee appointed in the proceeding, pursuant to Section 365(n) of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code or similar Laws of other countries, Rivian or such bankruptcy trustee (i) shall provide Amazon with any materials that are
the subject of the rights and licenses granted to Amazon described in the Agreement (or any agreement supplementary to the Agreement), and any intellectual property otherwise required to be provided to Amazon under the Agreement that is held by
Rivian or such trustee (including any embodiment thereof); and (ii) shall not interfere with the rights of Amazon provided in the Agreement to the materials and intellectual property that are the subject of the rights and licenses described in
the Agreement, including any right to obtain such materials from any other entity. Neither Rivian nor any of its Affiliates may (and Rivian, on behalf of itself and its Affiliates, hereby irrevocably waives any right to) object to or challenge any
assertion of and reliance on the matters described in this Section 16.5 by Amazon. 
 16.6 Waivers and Remedies. No
waiver of any breach of any provision of the Agreement will constitute a waiver of any prior, concurrent, or subsequent breach of the same or any other provisions hereof, and no waiver will be effective unless made in writing and signed by an
authorized representative of the waiving Party. The failure of a Party to enforce any provision of this Agreement will not constitute a waiver of the Party’s rights subsequently to enforce the provision. 

16.7 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof to any Person or circumstance will at any time
or to any extent be determined to be invalid or unenforceable under any provision of applicable Law, to the full extent the applicable Law may be waived, it is hereby waived. To the extent such Law cannot be waived, the invalid or unenforceable
provision will be replaced by a valid provision which comes closest to the intentions of the Parties to this Agreement. In case such replacement provision cannot be agreed upon, the invalidity of the provision in question will not affect the
validity of any other provision or this Agreement as a whole, unless the invalid provision is of such essential importance that it can be reasonably shown that the Parties would not have entered into this Agreement without the invalid provision.

 16.8 Dispute Resolution. If there is any controversy, dispute
or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement, including any Order (“Dispute”), the Parties will first attempt to resolve the Dispute through the Steering Committee. If, at any time, either Party wishes to have the Dispute
escalated beyond the Steering Committee, such Party will submit the Dispute for resolution under this Section 16.8 by providing prior written notice (a “Dispute Notice”) to the other Party of the nature of the
Dispute with as much detail as is practicable and any documentation reasonably necessary to evaluate such Dispute. During any Dispute, each Party agrees to continue performance relating to items not in dispute. Each of


  
 35 













 
the Parties will appoint an individual at the executive level to whom Disputes will be escalated (each, a “Management Representative”). The Management Representatives will meet
(in person or by telephone) to attempt to resolve the Dispute. If the Management Representatives cannot resolve the Dispute or agree upon a written plan of action to do so within thirty (30) days following the date of receipt of the Dispute
Notice, or if any agreed-upon completion dates in a written plan of action are exceeded without extension, subject to Section 16.9 (Governing Law; Venue; Jurisdiction), the Parties may pursue any rights they have at law or equity. The Parties
shall not be required to attempt to resolve or escalate a Dispute in accordance with this Section 16.8 for (a) Disputes relating to or affecting in any way the ownership of or the validity of any Intellectual Property Rights or fraud by
either Party; (b) a Party to avoid the expiration of any applicable limitations period; or (c) a Party to preserve a superior position with respect to other creditors. 

16.9 Governing Law; Venue;
Jurisdiction. This Agreement is governed by the procedural and substantive Laws of the state of New York and the United States, without giving effect to any conflicts of Laws rules that would result in the application of any other Law(s).
The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods will not apply to this Agreement. Any dispute arising under, in connection with, or incident to this Agreement or about its interpretation will be resolved exclusively in
the state or federal courts located in the borough of Manhattan in the City of New York. Notwithstanding any of the provisions set forth in Section 16.8 or this Section 16.9, either Party may seek interim provisional, injunctive or other
equitable relief in any court having jurisdiction hereof. 
 16.10 Construction; Standard Forms.

this Agreement and when required by the context, the same will include the plural and vice versa, and the masculine gender will include the feminine and neuter genders and vice versa. The words “include,” “includes,” and
“including” will be deemed to be followed by “without limitation.” The words “unreasonably withheld” will be deemed to be followed by, to the extent not set forth, “conditioned or delayed.” Each Party signing
this Agreement acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to review this Agreement with legal counsel of its choice, and there will be no presumption that ambiguities will be construed or interpreted against the drafter. The word “or”
will not be exclusive. The phrase “to the extent” will mean the degree to which a subject or other matter extends, and such phrase will not simply mean “if.” Where a word is defined herein, references to the singular will include
references to the plural and vice versa. All references to “$” and dollars will be deemed to refer to United States currency unless otherwise specifically provided. All references to a day or days will be deemed to refer to a calendar day

 (B) A Party may use its standard business forms or other
communications to administer transactions under this Agreement, but use of such forms is for the Parties’ convenience only and does not alter the provisions of this Agreement. Any terms or conditions that are preprinted in such forms or that
are included in a Purchase Order or Purchase Order acknowledgement are null, void, and of no effect. 
 (C) Each Party will not be bound by,
and specifically objects to, any provision that is different from or in addition to the provisions of this Agreement (whether proffered by the other Party verbally or in any quotation, purchase order, invoice, shipping document, acceptance,
confirmation, correspondence, or otherwise), unless such provision is specifically agreed to in a writing signed by such Party.

previous or contemporaneous oral or written agreements, understandings, and discussions regarding such subject matters. Subject to Section 16.11(B), it is the intent of the Parties that all Contract Documents be read and interpreted as a whole,
and not as separate documents, except that Section 2.2 of the Side Letter is amended by Sections 5.3(B), 8.7(B)(i) and 8.7(B)(ii), and 8.7(C)(i) of Work Order #1. 

(B) In the event of a conflict or inconsistency between the terms and conditions in this Addendum A (Framework

and any Exhibit, the terms of this Addendum A (Framework Addendum) will control to the extent of the conflict or inconsistency unless the Exhibit states otherwise.

Manufacture and sell Skateboards, whether in substitution for or in addition to, Delivery Vehicles under Work Order #1, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith applicable amendments to Work Order #1 to address the provisions of Work Order #1
that are intended to only apply to Delivery Vehicles, for the purpose of adhering as closely as possible to the terms of Work Order #1 with appropriate amendments to reflect the Manufacture and sale of Skateboards.

	2.	 AMAZON SECURITY POLICY. 



 

	2.1	 Basic Security Requirements. Rivian will, consistent with current best industry standards and such other
requirements specified by Amazon based on the classification and sensitivity of Amazon Information, maintain physical, administrative and technical safeguards and other security measures (i) to maintain the security and confidentiality of Amazon
Information accessed, collected, used, stored or transmitted by Rivian, and (ii) to protect that information from known or reasonably anticipated threats or hazards to its security and integrity, accidental loss, alteration, disclosure and all
other unlawful forms of processing. Without limitation, Rivian will comply with the following requirements: 


  

	 	2.1.1	 Firewall. Rivian will install and maintain a working network firewall to protect data accessible via the
Internet and will keep all Amazon Information protected by the firewall at all times.

	 	iii.	 Rivian will regularly review the list of people and services with access to Amazon Information, and
remove accounts that no longer require access. This review must be performed at least once every 90 days. 


  

	 	iv.	 Rivian will not use manufacturer-supplied defaults for system passwords and other security parameters on
any operating systems, software or other systems. Rivian will mandate and ensure the use of system-enforced “strong passwords” in accordance with the best practices (described below) on all systems hosting, storing, processing, or that
have or control access to, Amazon Information and will require that all passwords and access credentials are kept confidential and not shared among personnel. 



 

	 	o	 Password best practices. Passwords must meet the following criteria: 



 

	 	◾	 contain at least 8 characters; 



 

	 	◾	 not match previous passwords, the user’s login, or common name; 



 

	 	◾	 must be changed whenever an account compromise is suspected or assumed; and 



 

	 	◾	 are regularly replaced after no more than ninety (90) days. 



 

	 	v.	 Rivian will maintain and enforce “account lockout” by disabling accounts with access to Amazon
Information when an account exceeds more than ten (10) consecutive incorrect password attempts. 



  
 49 














	 	vi.	 Except where expressly authorized by Amazon in writing, Rivian will isolate Amazon Information at all
times (including in storage, processing or transmission), from Rivian’s and any third party information. 


  

	 	vii.	 If additional physical access controls are reasonably requested in writing by Amazon, Rivian will
implement and use those secure physical access control measures. 


  

	 	viii.	 Rivian will provide to Amazon, on an annual basis or more frequently upon Amazon’s request,
(1) log data about all use (both authorized and unauthorized) of Amazon’s accounts or credentials provided to Rivian for use on behalf of Amazon (e.g., social medial account credentials), and (2) detailed log data about any
impersonation of, or attempt to impersonate, Amazon personnel or Rivian personnel with access to Amazon Information. 


  

	 	ix.	 Rivian will regularly review access logs for signs of malicious behavior or unauthorized access.



  

	 	2.1.7	 Rivian Policy. Rivian will maintain and enforce an information and network security policy for
employees, subcontractors, agents, and suppliers that meets the standards set out in this policy, including methods to detect and log policy violations. Upon request by Amazon, Rivian will provide Amazon with information on violations of
Rivian’s information and network security policy, even if it does not constitute a Security Incident. 


  

	 	2.1.8	 Subcontract. Rivian will not subcontract or delegate any of its obligations under this Security Policy
to any subcontractors, affiliates, or delegates (“Subcontractors”) without Amazon’s prior written consent. Notwithstanding the existence or terms of any subcontract or delegation, Rivian will remain responsible for the full
performance of its obligations under this Security Policy. The terms and conditions of this Security Policy will be binding upon Rivian’s Subcontractors and Personnel. Rivian (a) will ensure that its Subcontractors and Personnel comply
with this Security Policy, and (b) will be responsible for all acts, omissions, negligence and misconduct of its Subcontractors and Personnel. 


  

	 	2.1.9	 Remote Access. Rivian will ensure that any access from outside protected corporate or production
environments to systems holding Amazon Information or Rivian’s corporate or development workstation networks requires multi-factor authentication (e.g., requires at least two separate factors for identifying users). 



 

	 	2.1.10	 “In Bulk” Access. Except where expressly authorized by Amazon in writing, Rivian will not
access, and will not permit access to, Amazon Information “in bulk” whether the Amazon Information is in an Amazon- or Rivian-controlled database or stored in any other method, including storage in
file-based archives (e.g., flat files), etc. For purposes of this section, “in bulk” access means accessing data by means of database query, report generation or any other mass transfer of data. Specifically, this section prohibits any
access to Amazon Information except for access to individual records as needed for the Permitted Purpose. Rivian will preserve detailed log data on attempted or successful “in bulk” access to Amazon Information, and provide reports from
these logs as part of its obligations under Section 2.6 (Security Review). In the event that Amazon provides written authorization for access to Amazon Information “in bulk”, Rivian will (1) limit such access only to specified
employees with the “need to know”, and (2) use tools that limit access and require explicit authorization and logging of all access. 



  
 50 














	 	2.1.11	 Rivian Personnel. Amazon may condition access to Amazon Information by Rivian personnel on Rivian
personnel’s execution and delivery to Amazon of individual nondisclosure agreements, the form of which is specified by Amazon. If required by Amazon, Amazon requests that Rivian’s personnel execute the individual nondisclosure agreement.
Rivian will obtain and deliver to Amazon signed individual nondisclosure agreements from Rivian personnel that will have access to the Amazon Information (prior to granting access or providing information to the Rivian personnel). Rivian will also
(i) maintain a list of all Rivian personnel who have accessed or received the Amazon Information and provide that list to Amazon upon request within an agreed upon timeframe, and (ii) notify Amazon no later than 24 hours after any specific
individual Rivian personnel authorized to access Amazon Information in accordance with this Section: (y) no longer needs access to Amazon Information or (z) no longer qualifies as Rivian personnel (e.g., the personnel leaves Rivian’s
employment). 


  

	2.2	 Access to Amazon Extranet and Rivian Portals. Amazon may grant Rivian access to Amazon Information via
web portals or other non-public websites or extranet services on Amazon’s or a third party’s website or system (each, an “Extranet”) for the Permitted Purpose. If Amazon permits
Rivian to access any Amazon Information using an Extranet, Rivian must comply with the following requirements:

	 	2.2.4	 Restrictions. Except if approved in advance in writing by Amazon, Rivian will not download, mirror or
permanently store any Amazon Information from any Extranet on any medium, including any machines, devices or servers. 


  

	 	2.2.5	 Account Termination. Rivian will terminate the account of each of Rivian’s personnel and notify
Amazon no later than 24 hours after any specific Rivian personnel who has been authorized to access any Extranet (a) no longer needs access to Amazon Information or (b) no longer qualifies as Rivian personnel (e.g., the personnel leaves
Rivian’s employment). 


  

	 	2.2.6	 Third Party Systems. 



 

	 	i.	 Rivian will give Amazon prior notice and obtain Amazon’s prior written approval before it uses any
Third Party System that stores or may otherwise have access to Amazon Information, unless a) the data is encrypted in accordance with this Security Policy, and b) the Third Party System will not have access to the decryption key or unencrypted
“plain text” versions of the data. Amazon reserves the right to require an Amazon security review (in accordance with Section 2.5 (Security Review)) of the Third Party System before giving approval. 



  
 51 














	 	ii.	 If Rivian uses any Third Party Systems that store or otherwise may access unencrypted Amazon
Information, Rivian must perform a security review of the Third Party Systems and their security controls and will provide Amazon periodic reporting about the Third Party System’s security controls in the format requested by Amazon (e.g., SAS
70 or its successor report), or other recognized industry-standard report approved by Amazon. 


  

	2.3	 Data Retention and Destruction. 



 

	 	2.3.1	 Retention. Rivian will retain Amazon Information only for the purpose of, and as long as is necessary
for, the Permitted Purpose.

similar regulatory purposes, this archived Amazon Information must be stored in one of the following ways: 


  

	 	i.	 As a “cold” or offline (i.e., not available for immediate or interactive use) backup stored in
a physically secure facility; or 


  

	 	ii.	 Encrypted, where the system hosting or storing the encrypted file(s) does not have access to a copy of
the key(s) used for encryption. 


  

	 	2.3.4	 Recovery. If Rivian performs a “recovery” (i.e., reverting to a backup) for the purpose of
disaster recovery, Rivian will have and maintain a process that ensures that all Amazon Information that is required to be deleted pursuant to the Agreement or this Security Policy will be re-deleted or
overwritten from the recovered data in accordance with this Section 2.3 within 24 hours after recovery occurs. If Rivian performs a recovery for any purpose, no Amazon Information may be recovered to any third party system or network without
Amazon’s prior written approval. Amazon reserves the right to require an Amazon security review (in accordance with Section 2.5 (Security Review)) of the third party system or network before permitting recovery of any Amazon Information to
any third party system or network.
