April 27 and October 28, as the case may be, next preceding the relevant Interest Payment Date, except that the Company will pay interest at the Stated Maturity of the Notes to the person or persons to whom principal is payable. Interest
on the Notes will be paid on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. 

If any day on which interest is payable on the Notes is not a Business Day, the payment of the interest payable on that date will be made on
the next date that is a Business Day, without any interest or other payment in respect of the delay, with the same force and effect as if made on the scheduled payment date. 
  

	 	(f)	 The place or places where the principal of and interest on the Notes shall be payable, where they may be
surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and where notices and demands to or upon the Company may be served in respect of the Notes and the Indenture shall be the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, or at any other place as the
Company may designate. 

  

	 	(g)	 Any series of the Notes may be redeemed in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to the
applicable Par Call Date (as defined herein) (or in the case of the 2023 Notes and the 2024 Notes, at any time prior to the 2023 Stated Maturity and the 2024 Stated Maturity, respectively) at the Company’s option (the date of such redemption,
the “Make-Whole Redemption Date”), at a redemption price equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the applicable series of Notes to be redeemed, and (ii) the sum, as determined by the Company based on the
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations (as defined below), of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed (A) in the case of the 2023 Notes and the 2024 Notes, from the Redemption
Date to the 2023 Stated Maturity and the 2024 Stated Maturity, respectively, and (B) in the case of the 2026 Notes, the 2028 Notes, the 2031 Notes, the 2041 Notes, the 2051 Notes, and the 2061 Notes, that would have been payable in respect of
such Notes calculated as if the applicable Stated Maturity was the applicable Par Call Date (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Make-Whole Redemption Date), in each case, discounted from the scheduled payment
dates to the Make-Whole Redemption Date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus
2.5 basis points in the case of the 2023 Notes, plus 2.5 basis points in the case of the 2024 Notes, plus 5.0 basis points in the case of the 2026 Notes, plus 7.0 basis points in the case

  
 3 

	 	
of the 2028 Notes, plus 10.0 basis points in the case of the 2031 Notes, plus 12.5 basis points in the case of the 2041 Notes, plus 15.0 basis points in the case of the 2051 Notes, and plus 15.0
basis points in the case of the 2061 Notes. Accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being redeemed will be paid up to, but excluding, the Make-Whole Redemption Date. 

Commencing on the applicable Par Call Date, the Company may redeem the 2026 Notes, the 2028 Notes, the 2031 Notes, the 2041 Notes, the 2051
Notes, and the 2061 Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at our option, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the date of
redemption (such date, and any Make-Whole Redemption Date, a “Redemption Date”). The Company shall be responsible for calculating the applicable redemption price. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a
Redemption Date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the Notes and the Indenture. 

If money sufficient to pay the redemption price of and accrued interest on the series of Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the
Redemption Date is deposited with the Trustee or Paying Agent on or before the Redemption Date, then on and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on such Notes (or such portion thereof) called for redemption and such Notes will
cease to be outstanding. If any Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the Company will pay the redemption price on the next Business Day without any interest or other payment due to the delay. 

If fewer than all of the Notes of a series are to be redeemed, the Trustee will select the Notes of such series to be redeemed by lot, in
accordance with the Depository Trust Company’s (“DTC”) applicable procedures unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange. Notes of $2,000 principal amount or less will not be redeemed in part. 

Notice of any redemption shall be electronically delivered or mailed in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Indenture at least 10 days
but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed. Such notice shall state the redemption price (if known) or the formula pursuant to which the redemption price is to be determined if the redemption
price cannot be determined at the time the notice is given. If the redemption price cannot be determined at the time such notice is to be given, the actual redemption price, calculated as set forth in this Officers’ Certificate, shall be set
forth in an Officers’ 

  
 4 

 
Certificate of the Company delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in the Indenture, the Notes
called for redemption shall become due and payable on the Redemption Date and at the applicable redemption price. 
 Notice of any
redemption of the Notes of a series in connection with a transaction or an event may, at the Company’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof. Any redemption or notice may, at the Company’s discretion, be
subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of a related transaction or event. At the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such
conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Company
shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close of business two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt the Trustee shall provide such notice to each Holder of
the Notes subject to such redemption notice in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. 
 “Comparable Treasury
Issue” means, with respect to the Notes of a series, the United States Treasury security selected by a Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company as being the most recently issued United States Treasury security having an actual or
interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming, in the case of the 2026 Notes, the 2028 Notes, the 2031 Notes, the 2041 Notes, the 2051 Notes, and the 2061 Notes, that such Notes to be redeemed matured
on the applicable Par Call Date) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the notes
(assuming, in the case of the 2026 Notes, 2028 Notes, the 2031 Notes, the 2041 Notes, the 2051 Notes, and the 2061 Notes, that such Notes matured on the applicable Par Call Date).

months prior to the 2051 Stated Maturity), and, in the case of the 2061 Notes, November 12, 2060 (the date that is six months prior to the 2061 Stated Maturity).

 (REVERSE OF NOTE) 

AMAZON.COM, INC. 
 0.250% Notes due
2023 
  

	1.	 Interest. 

Amazon.com, Inc. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per
annum described above. Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; or, if no interest has been paid, from May 12, 2021. Interest on this Note will be paid to but excluding the relevant
Interest Payment Date or on such earlier date as the principal amount shall become due in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Issuer will pay interest semiannually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning on November 12, 2021.
If any Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date with respect to the Notes is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest will be due on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the
date that such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date of that payment on the next succeeding
Business Day. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and at the same
rate on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful from the dates such amounts are due until such amounts are paid or made available for payment. 

 

	2.	 Paying Agent. 

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent. The Issuer may
change any Paying Agent without notice to the Holders. 
  

	3.	 Indenture; Defined Terms. 

This Note is one of the 0.250% Notes due 2023 (the “Notes”) issued under the Indenture dated as of
November 29, 2012 by and between the Issuer and the Trustee, as trustee (the “Indenture”) and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of May 12, 2021 establishing the terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.2 of the
Indenture (the “Officers’ Certificate”). This Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture. 

For purposes of this Note, unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. The
terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S.C. §§77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date on
which the Indenture was qualified under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the
terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern. 
  

	4.	 Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. 

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. Where the Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes, the Registrar shall register the
transfer or make the exchange if the requirements for such transactions set forth in the Indenture are met. The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith
as permitted by the Indenture. Neither the Issuer nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange the Notes for the period 

  
 - 5 - 

 
beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the delivery of a notice of redemption of the Notes selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day
of such delivery, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange the Notes selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed of any such Notes selected, called or being called for redemption in part. 

 

	5.	 Amendment; Modification; Waiver. 

The Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented, and waivers may be obtained in accordance with the terms of the
Indenture. 
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may waive any existing or past Default or Event of
Default with respect to the Notes. Those Holders may not, however, waive any Default or Event of Default in any payment on the Notes. 

Any amendment, supplement or waiver to the Notes made with the consent of Holders of the Notes, shall be made with respect to
the Notes only, and not any other series of Securities. 
  

	6.	 Optional Redemption. 

The Issuer may redeem the Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to maturity (the date of such
redemption, the “Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to the greater of: 
 (i) 100% of the
principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; or 
 (ii) the sum, as determined by the Issuer based on the Reference Treasury
Dealer Quotations (as defined in the Officers’ Certificate), of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed from the Redemption Date to the Stated Maturity (not including any
portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date) discounted from the scheduled Interest Payment Dates to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of
twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined in the Officers’ Certificate) plus 2.5 basis points, 

plus, in the case of (i) or (ii), accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on
or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to the Notes and the Indenture. 

If any Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the Issuer will pay the redemption price on the next Business Day without any
interest or other payment due to the delay. 
 On or after any Redemption Date, unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the
redemption price, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. On or before any Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient to pay the
redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select the Notes to be redeemed by lot, in accordance with
DTC’s applicable procedures unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange; provided, however, that in no event shall Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less be redeemed in part. 

Notice of any redemption shall be electronically delivered or mailed in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Indenture at
least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder

Indenture) of the Issuer delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in the Indenture, the Notes called for redemption shall become due and payable on the
Redemption Date and at the applicable redemption price. 
 Notice of any redemption of the Notes in connection with a
transaction or an event may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof. Any redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but
not limited to, completion or occurrence of a related transaction or event. At the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and
such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Issuer shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close of
business two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt the Trustee shall provide such notice to each Holder of the Notes subject to such redemption notice in the same manner in
which the notice of redemption was given. 
  

	7.	 Defaults and Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default referred to in Section 6.1(e) or
(f) of the Indenture), the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes may require the Issuer to pay immediately the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities. If an Event of Default
referred to in Section 6.1(e) or (f) of the Indenture occurs, the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Series of Securities will become immediately due and payable without any action on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder.

of the outstanding Notes to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Notes.

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused

 0.450% Notes due
2024 
  

	1.	 Interest. 

Amazon.com, Inc. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per
annum described above. Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; or, if no interest has been paid, from May 12, 2021. Interest on this Note will be paid to but excluding the relevant
Interest Payment Date or on such earlier date as the principal amount shall become due in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Issuer will pay interest semiannually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning on November 12, 2021.
If any Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date with respect to the Notes is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest will be due on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the
date that such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date of that payment on the next succeeding
Business Day. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and at the same
rate on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful from the dates such amounts are due until such amounts are paid or made available for payment. 

 

	2.	 Paying Agent. 

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent. The Issuer may
change any Paying Agent without notice to the Holders.

This Note is one of the 0.450% Notes due 2024 (the “Notes”) issued under the Indenture dated as of
November 29, 2012 by and between the Issuer and the Trustee, as trustee (the “Indenture”) and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of May 12, 2021 establishing the terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.2 of the
Indenture (the “Officers’ Certificate”). This Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture. 

For purposes of this Note, unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. The
terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S.C. §§77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date on
which the Indenture was qualified under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the
terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern. 
  

	4.	 Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. 

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. Where the Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes, the Registrar shall register the
transfer or make the exchange if the requirements for such transactions set forth in the Indenture are met. The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith
as permitted by the Indenture. Neither the Issuer nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange the Notes for the period

Indenture. 
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may waive any existing or past Default or Event of
Default with respect to the Notes. Those Holders may not, however, waive any Default or Event of Default in any payment on the Notes. 

Any amendment, supplement or waiver to the Notes made with the consent of Holders of the Notes, shall be made with respect to
the Notes only, and not any other series of Securities. 
  

	6.	 Optional Redemption. 

The Issuer may redeem the Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to maturity (the date of such
redemption, the “Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to the greater of: 
 (i) 100% of the
principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; or 
 (ii) the sum, as determined by the Issuer based on the Reference Treasury
Dealer Quotations (as defined in the Officers’ Certificate), of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed from the Redemption Date to the Stated Maturity (not including any
portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Redemption Date) discounted from the scheduled Interest Payment Dates to the Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of
twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined in the Officers’ Certificate) plus 2.5 basis points, 

plus, in the case of (i) or (ii), accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the Redemption Date. 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on
or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to the Notes and the Indenture. 

If any Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the Issuer will pay the redemption price on the next Business Day without any
interest or other payment due to the delay.

redemption price, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. On or before any Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient to pay the
redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all Notes to be redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select the Notes to be redeemed by lot, in accordance with
DTC’s applicable procedures unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange; provided, however, that in no event shall Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less be redeemed in part. 

Notice of any redemption shall be electronically delivered or mailed in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Indenture at
least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder

Indenture) of the Issuer delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in the Indenture, the Notes called for redemption shall become due and payable on the
Redemption Date and at the applicable redemption price. 
 Notice of any redemption of the Notes in connection with a
transaction or an event may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof. Any redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent, including, but
not limited to, completion or occurrence of a related transaction or event. At the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such redemption may not occur and
such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Issuer shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the close of
business two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt the Trustee shall provide such notice to each Holder of the Notes subject to such redemption notice in the same manner in
which the notice of redemption was given.

(f) of the Indenture), the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes may require the Issuer to pay immediately the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities. If an Event of Default
referred to in Section 6.1(e) or (f) of the Indenture occurs, the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Series of Securities will become immediately due and payable without any action on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder.

of the outstanding Notes to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Notes.

as permitted by the Indenture. Neither the Issuer nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange the Notes for the period 

  
 - 5 - 

 
beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the delivery of a notice of redemption of the Notes selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day
of such delivery, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange the Notes selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed of any such Notes selected, called or being called for redemption in part. 

 

	5.	 Amendment; Modification; Waiver. 

The Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented, and waivers may be obtained in accordance with the terms of the
Indenture. 
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may waive any existing or past Default or Event of
Default with respect to the Notes. Those Holders may not, however, waive any Default or Event of Default in any payment on the Notes. 

Any amendment, supplement or waiver to the Notes made with the consent of Holders of the Notes, shall be made with respect to
the Notes only, and not any other series of Securities. 
  

	6.	 Optional Redemption. 

The Issuer may redeem the Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to April 12, 2026 (the date of
such redemption, the “Make-Whole Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to the greater of: 
 (i)
100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; or 
 (ii) the sum, as determined by the Issuer based on the
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations (as defined in the Officers’ Certificate), of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed that would have been payable in respect of such Notes
to be redeemed calculated as if the maturity date of such Notes was April 12, 2026 (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Make-Whole Redemption Date) discounted from the scheduled Interest Payment Dates to the
Make-Whole Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined in the Officers’
Certificate) plus 5.0 basis points, 
 plus, in the case of (i) or (ii), accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the
Make-Whole Redemption Date. 
 Commencing on April 12, 2026, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in
part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the date of redemption (such date, and any Make-Whole Redemption Date, a
“Redemption Date”). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and
payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to the Notes and the
Indenture. 
 If any Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the Issuer will pay the redemption price on the next Business Day
without any interest or other payment due to the delay. 
 On or after any Redemption Date, unless the Issuer defaults in
payment of the redemption price, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. On or before any Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient
to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all Notes to be 

  
 - 6 - 

 
redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select the Notes to be redeemed by lot, in accordance with DTC’s applicable procedures
unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange; provided, however, that in no event shall Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less be redeemed in part. 

Notice of any redemption shall be electronically delivered or mailed in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Indenture at
least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed. Such notice shall state the redemption price (if known) or the formula pursuant to which the redemption price is to be determined if the
redemption price cannot be determined at the time the notice is given. If the redemption price cannot be determined at the time such notice is to be given, the actual redemption price shall be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate (as such term
is defined in the Indenture) of the Issuer delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in the Indenture, the Notes called for redemption shall become due
and payable on the Redemption Date and at the applicable redemption price. 
 Notice of any redemption of the Notes in
connection with a transaction or an event may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof. Any redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions
precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of a related transaction or event. At the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such
redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Issuer shall provide written notice to the
Trustee prior to the close of business two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt the Trustee shall provide such notice to each Holder of the Notes subject to such redemption
notice in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. 
  

	7.	 Defaults and Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default referred to in Section 6.1(e) or
(f) of the Indenture), the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes may require the Issuer to pay immediately the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities. If an Event of Default
referred to in Section 6.1(e) or (f) of the Indenture occurs, the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Series of Securities will become immediately due and payable without any action on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder. 
 The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the outstanding Notes to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Notes. 

 

	8.	 Authentication. 

This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note. 

 

	9.	 Abbreviations and Defined Terms.

AMAZON.COM, INC. 
 1.650% Notes due
2028 
  

	1.	 Interest. 

Amazon.com, Inc. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per
annum described above. Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; or, if no interest has been paid, from May 12, 2021. Interest on this Note will be paid to but excluding the relevant
Interest Payment Date or on such earlier date as the principal amount shall become due in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Issuer will pay interest semiannually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning on November 12, 2021.
If any Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date with respect to the Notes is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest will be due on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the
date that such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date of that payment on the next succeeding
Business Day. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and at the same
rate on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful from the dates such amounts are due until such amounts are paid or made available for payment. 

 

	2.	 Paying Agent. 

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent. The Issuer may
change any Paying Agent without notice to the Holders.

This Note is one of the 1.650% Notes due 2028 (the “Notes”) issued under the Indenture dated as of
November 29, 2012 by and between the Issuer and the Trustee, as trustee (the “Indenture”) and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of May 12, 2021 establishing the terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.2 of the
Indenture (the “Officers’ Certificate”). This Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture. 

For purposes of this Note, unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. The
terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S.C. §§77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date on
which the Indenture was qualified under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the
terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern. 
  

	4.	 Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. 

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. Where the Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes, the Registrar shall register the
transfer or make the exchange if the requirements for such transactions set forth in the Indenture are met. The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith
as permitted by the Indenture. Neither the Issuer nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange the Notes for the period

beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the delivery of a notice of redemption of the Notes selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day
of such delivery, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange the Notes selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed of any such Notes selected, called or being called for redemption in part. 

 

	5.	 Amendment; Modification; Waiver. 

The Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented, and waivers may be obtained in accordance with the terms of the
Indenture. 
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may waive any existing or past Default or Event of
Default with respect to the Notes. Those Holders may not, however, waive any Default or Event of Default in any payment on the Notes. 

Any amendment, supplement or waiver to the Notes made with the consent of Holders of the Notes, shall be made with respect to
the Notes only, and not any other series of Securities. 
  

	6.	 Optional Redemption. 

The Issuer may redeem the Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to March 12, 2028 (the date of
such redemption, the “Make-Whole Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to the greater of: 
 (i)
100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; or 
 (ii) the sum, as determined by the Issuer based on the
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations (as defined in the Officers’ Certificate), of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed that would have been payable in respect of such Notes
to be redeemed calculated as if the maturity date of such Notes was March 12, 2028 (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Make-Whole Redemption Date) discounted from the scheduled Interest Payment Dates to the

Certificate) plus 7.0 basis points, 
 plus, in the case of (i) or (ii), accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the

Indenture.

and payable on the Redemption Date and at the applicable redemption price. 
 Notice of any redemption of the Notes in
connection with a transaction or an event may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof. Any redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions
precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of a related transaction or event. At the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such
redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Issuer shall provide written notice to the

notice in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given.

 (REVERSE OF NOTE) 

AMAZON.COM, INC. 
 2.100% Notes due
2031 
  

	1.	 Interest. 

Amazon.com, Inc. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per
annum described above. Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; or, if no interest has been paid, from May 12, 2021. Interest on this Note will be paid to but excluding the relevant
Interest Payment Date or on such earlier date as the principal amount shall become due in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Issuer will pay interest semiannually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning on November 12, 2021.
If any Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date with respect to the Notes is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest will be due on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the
date that such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date of that payment on the next succeeding
Business Day. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and at the same
rate on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful from the dates such amounts are due until such amounts are paid or made available for payment. 

 

	2.	 Paying Agent. 

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent. The Issuer may
change any Paying Agent without notice to the Holders. 
  

	3.	 Indenture; Defined Terms. 

This Note is one of the 2.100% Notes due 2031 (the “Notes”) issued under the Indenture dated as of
November 29, 2012 by and between the Issuer and the Trustee, as trustee (the “Indenture”) and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of May 12, 2021 establishing the terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.2 of the
Indenture (the “Officers’ Certificate”). This Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture. 

For purposes of this Note, unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. The
terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S.C. §§77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date on
which the Indenture was qualified under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the
terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern. 
  

	4.	 Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. 

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. Where the Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes, the Registrar shall register the
transfer or make the exchange if the requirements for such transactions set forth in the Indenture are met. The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith
as permitted by the Indenture. Neither the Issuer nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange the Notes for the period 

 beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the delivery of a
notice of redemption of the Notes selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day of such delivery, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange the Notes selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or
the portion being redeemed of any such Notes selected, called or being called for redemption in part. 
  

	5.	 Amendment; Modification; Waiver. 

The Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented, and waivers may be obtained in accordance with the terms of the
Indenture. 
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may waive any existing or past Default or Event of
Default with respect to the Notes. Those Holders may not, however, waive any Default or Event of Default in any payment on the Notes. 

Any amendment, supplement or waiver to the Notes made with the consent of Holders of the Notes, shall be made with respect to
the Notes only, and not any other series of Securities. 
  

	6.	 Optional Redemption. 

The Issuer may redeem the Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to February 12, 2031 (the date of
such redemption, the “Make-Whole Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to the greater of: 
 (i)
100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; or 
 (ii) the sum, as determined by the Issuer based on the
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations (as defined in the Officers’ Certificate), of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed that would have been payable in respect of such Notes
to be redeemed calculated as if the maturity date of such Notes was February 12, 2031 (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Make-Whole Redemption Date) discounted from the scheduled Interest Payment Dates to
the Make-Whole Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined in the Officers’
Certificate) plus 10.0 basis points, 
 plus, in the case of (i) or (ii), accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the
Make-Whole Redemption Date. 
 Commencing on February 12, 2031, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or
in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the date of redemption (such date, and any Make-Whole Redemption Date, a
“Redemption Date”). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and
payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to the Notes and the
Indenture. 
 If any Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the Issuer will pay the redemption price on the next Business Day
without any interest or other payment due to the delay. 
 On or after any Redemption Date, unless the Issuer defaults in
payment of the redemption price, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. On or before any Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient
to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all Notes to be 

  
 - 6 - 

 
redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select the Notes to be redeemed by lot, in accordance with DTC’s applicable procedures
unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange; provided, however, that in no event shall Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less be redeemed in part. 

Notice of any redemption shall be electronically delivered or mailed in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Indenture at
least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed. Such notice shall state the redemption price (if known) or the formula pursuant to which the redemption price is to be determined if the
redemption price cannot be determined at the time the notice is given. If the redemption price cannot be determined at the time such notice is to be given, the actual redemption price shall be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate (as such term
is defined in the Indenture) of the Issuer delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in the Indenture, the Notes called for redemption shall become due
and payable on the Redemption Date and at the applicable redemption price. 
 Notice of any redemption of the Notes in
connection with a transaction or an event may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof. Any redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions
precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of a related transaction or event. At the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such
redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Issuer shall provide written notice to the
Trustee prior to the close of business two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt the Trustee shall provide such notice to each Holder of the Notes subject to such redemption
notice in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. 
  

	7.	 Defaults and Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default referred to in Section 6.1(e) or
(f) of the Indenture), the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes may require the Issuer to pay immediately the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities. If an Event of Default
referred to in Section 6.1(e) or (f) of the Indenture occurs, the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Series of Securities will become immediately due and payable without any action on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder. 
 The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the outstanding Notes to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Notes. 

 

	8.	 Authentication. 

This Note shall not be valid until the Trustee manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note. 

 

	9.	 Abbreviations and Defined Terms. 

Customary abbreviations may be used in the name of a Holder of a Note or an assignee, such as: TEN COM (= tenants in common),
TEN ENT (= tenants by the entireties), JT TEN (= joint tenants with right of survivorship and not as tenants in common), CUST (= Custodian), and U/G/M/A (= Uniform Gifts to Minors Act).

AMAZON.COM, INC. 
 3.100% Notes due
2051 
  

	1.	 Interest. 

Amazon.com, Inc. (the “Issuer”) promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this Note at the rate per
annum described above. Cash interest on the Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid; or, if no interest has been paid, from May 12, 2021. Interest on this Note will be paid to but excluding the relevant
Interest Payment Date or on such earlier date as the principal amount shall become due in accordance with the provisions hereof. The Issuer will pay interest semiannually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning on November 12, 2021.
If any Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date with respect to the Notes is not a Business Day, the required payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest will be due on the next succeeding Business Day as if made on the
date that such payment was due, and no interest will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Interest Payment Date, Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date of that payment on the next succeeding
Business Day. Interest will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. 

The Issuer shall pay interest on overdue principal from time to time on demand at the rate borne by the Notes and at the same
rate on overdue installments of interest (without regard to any applicable grace periods) to the extent lawful from the dates such amounts are due until such amounts are paid or made available for payment. 

 

	2.	 Paying Agent. 

Initially, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (the “Trustee”) will act as Paying Agent. The Issuer may
change any Paying Agent without notice to the Holders. 
  

	3.	 Indenture; Defined Terms. 

This Note is one of the 3.100% Notes due 2051 (the “Notes”) issued under the Indenture dated as of
November 29, 2012 by and between the Issuer and the Trustee, as trustee (the “Indenture”) and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of May 12, 2021 establishing the terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.2 of the
Indenture (the “Officers’ Certificate”). This Note is a “Security” and the Notes are “Securities” under the Indenture. 

For purposes of this Note, unless otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms herein are used as defined in the Indenture. The
terms of the Notes include those stated in the Indenture and those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (15 U.S.C. §§77aaa-77bbbb) (the “TIA”), as in effect on the date on
which the Indenture was qualified under the TIA. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Notes are subject to all such terms, and Holders of Notes are referred to the Indenture and the TIA for a statement of them. To the extent the
terms of the Indenture and this Note are inconsistent, the terms of the Indenture shall govern. 
  

	4.	 Denominations; Transfer; Exchange. 

The Notes are in registered form, without coupons, in denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess
thereof. Where the Notes are presented to the Registrar or a co-registrar with a request to register a transfer or to exchange them for an equal principal amount of Notes, the Registrar shall register the
transfer or make the exchange if the requirements for such transactions set forth in the Indenture are met. The Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or similar governmental charge payable in connection therewith
as permitted by the Indenture. Neither the Issuer nor the Registrar shall be required (a) to issue, register the transfer of, or exchange the Notes for the period 

  
 - 5 - 

 
beginning at the opening of business fifteen days immediately preceding the delivery of a notice of redemption of the Notes selected for redemption and ending at the close of business on the day
of such delivery, or (b) to register the transfer of or exchange the Notes selected, called or being called for redemption as a whole or the portion being redeemed of any such Notes selected, called or being called for redemption in part. 

 

	5.	 Amendment; Modification; Waiver. 

The Indenture and the Notes may be amended or supplemented, and waivers may be obtained in accordance with the terms of the
Indenture. 
 The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes may waive any existing or past Default or Event of
Default with respect to the Notes. Those Holders may not, however, waive any Default or Event of Default in any payment on the Notes. 

Any amendment, supplement or waiver to the Notes made with the consent of Holders of the Notes, shall be made with respect to
the Notes only, and not any other series of Securities. 
  

	6.	 Optional Redemption. 

The Issuer may redeem the Notes in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to November 12, 2050 (the date of
such redemption, the “Make-Whole Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to the greater of: 
 (i)
100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed; or 
 (ii) the sum, as determined by the Issuer based on the
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations (as defined in the Officers’ Certificate), of the present value of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Notes to be redeemed that would have been payable in respect of such Notes
to be redeemed calculated as if the maturity date of such Notes was November 12, 2050 (not including any portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the Make-Whole Redemption Date) discounted from the scheduled Interest Payment Dates to
the Make-Whole Redemption Date on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined in the Officers’
Certificate) plus 15.0 basis points, 
 plus, in the case of (i) or (ii), accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the
Make-Whole Redemption Date. 
 Commencing on November 12, 2050, the Issuer may redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or
in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest up to, but excluding, the date of redemption (such date, and any Make-Whole Redemption Date, a
“Redemption Date”). 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on Notes that are due and
payable on Interest Payment Dates falling on or prior to a Redemption Date will be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the registered Holders as of the close of business on the relevant Regular Record Date according to the Notes and the
Indenture. 
 If any Redemption Date is not a Business Day, the Issuer will pay the redemption price on the next Business Day
without any interest or other payment due to the delay. 
 On or after any Redemption Date, unless the Issuer defaults in
payment of the redemption price, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. On or before any Redemption Date, the Issuer shall deposit with the Paying Agent money in immediately available funds sufficient
to pay the redemption price of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all Notes to be 

  
 - 6 - 

 
redeemed on that date. If less than all of the Notes are to be redeemed at any time, the Trustee will select the Notes to be redeemed by lot, in accordance with DTC’s applicable procedures
unless otherwise required by law or applicable stock exchange; provided, however, that in no event shall Notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less be redeemed in part. 

Notice of any redemption shall be electronically delivered or mailed in accordance with Section 10.1 of the Indenture at
least 10 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of the Notes to be redeemed. Such notice shall state the redemption price (if known) or the formula pursuant to which the redemption price is to be determined if the
redemption price cannot be determined at the time the notice is given. If the redemption price cannot be determined at the time such notice is to be given, the actual redemption price shall be set forth in an Officers’ Certificate (as such term
is defined in the Indenture) of the Issuer delivered to the Trustee no later than two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having been given as provided in the Indenture, the Notes called for redemption shall become due
and payable on the Redemption Date and at the applicable redemption price. 
 Notice of any redemption of the Notes in
connection with a transaction or an event may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be given prior to the completion or the occurrence thereof. Any redemption or notice may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions
precedent, including, but not limited to, completion or occurrence of a related transaction or event. At the Issuer’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied, or such
redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed. The Issuer shall provide written notice to the
Trustee prior to the close of business two Business Days prior to the Redemption Date if any such redemption has been rescinded or delayed, and upon receipt the Trustee shall provide such notice to each Holder of the Notes subject to such redemption
notice in the same manner in which the notice of redemption was given. 
  

	7.	 Defaults and Remedies. 

If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing (other than an Event of Default referred to in Section 6.1(e) or
(f) of the Indenture), the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the Notes may require the Issuer to pay immediately the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Securities. If an Event of Default
referred to in Section 6.1(e) or (f) of the Indenture occurs, the principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest on such Series of Securities will become immediately due and payable without any action on the part of the Trustee or any
Holder. 
 The Indenture permits, subject to certain limitations therein provided, Holders of a majority in principal amount
of the outstanding Notes to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee, with respect to the Notes.

such redemption, the “Make-Whole Redemption Date”) at a redemption price equal to the greater of: 
 (i)

Exhibit 10.1

THE WENDY’S COMPANY
LONG-TERM PERFORMANCE UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
(this “Agreement”)
The Wendy’s Company (the “Company”), pursuant to the provisions of The Wendy’s Company 2020 Omnibus Award Plan (the “Plan”), hereby irrevocably grants to the Participant stated below an Award (the “Award”) of Performance Units (the “Units”), on _____________, 20___ (the “Award Date”), as specified below:
						
	Participant:	______________________
	Performance Period:	January 4, 2021 to December 31, 2023
	Target Free Cash Flow Units:	____________ (the “Free Cash Flow Units”)
	Target TSR Units:	____________ (the “TSR Units”)

Each Unit represents the right to receive one (1) share of Common Stock provided that the applicable performance goal as described in this Agreement is achieved.  Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the respective meanings assigned to them under the Plan.
1.    Free Cash Flow.
(a)    Earning of Award.  The extent to which the Participant will earn the Free Cash Flow Units is based on the Company’s cumulative Free Cash Flow (as defined below) for the Performance Period compared to the cumulative Free Cash Flow Target established by the Committee for the Performance Period as shown in the chart below (with the Threshold, Above Threshold, Target, Above Target and Maximum cumulative Free Cash Flow amounts to be set forth on a separate exhibit which will be provided to the Participant).
									
	Company
Cumulative Free Cash Flow
		Percentage of
Free Cash Flow Units Earned

	Maximum		200.0%
	Above Target		150.0%
	Target		100.0%
	Above Threshold		75.0%
	Threshold		37.5%
	Below Threshold		0.0%

Linear interpolation shall be used to determine the percentage of Free Cash Flow Units earned in the event the Company’s cumulative Free Cash Flow falls between the (i) Threshold and Above Threshold, (ii) Above Threshold and Target, (iii) Target and Above Target or (iv) Above Target and Maximum performance levels shown in the chart above.  The Company’s cumulative Free Cash Flow will be determined as set forth in Section 1(b) below.

(b)    Calculation of Free Cash Flow.  The Company’s “cumulative Free Cash Flow” means the sum of the Company’s Free Cash Flow (as defined below) for each fiscal year of the Performance Period.
    “Free Cash Flow” means cash flows from operations minus (i) capital expenditures and (ii) the net change in the restricted operating assets and liabilities of the Company’s U.S. and Canadian national advertising funds and any excess/deficit of advertising funds revenue over advertising funds expenses included in net income, each as prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and reported in the Company’s fiscal 2021, 2022 and 2023 Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows, as adjusted (A) within the “Reconciliation of Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities to Free Cash Flow” (or similarly titled non-GAAP reconciliation table) as presented in the Company’s fiscal 2021, 2022 and 2023 earnings release and (B) to exclude the impact of (1) changes in tax law, accounting standards or principles, or other laws or regulations affecting the Company’s reported results, (2) any other specific non-recurring and unusual items as described in management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations appearing in the Company’s annual report to stockholders for the applicable fiscal year and (3) any other adjustments to the extent approved by the Committee.  Each adjustment made pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be calculated by reference to the applicable line item on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows or the applicable account or journal entry on the Company’s general ledger.
2.    Relative TSR Performance.
(a)    Earning of Award.  The extent to which the Participant will earn the TSR Units is based on the Company TSR Percentile Ranking (as defined below) for the Performance Period based on the following chart:
									
	Company TSR Percentile Ranking		Percentage of TSR Units Earned
	≥ 90th		200.0% (Maximum)
	75th		150.0% (Above Target)
	50th		100.0% (Target)
	37.5th		75.0% (Above Threshold)
	25th		37.5% (Threshold)
	< 25th		0.0% (Below Threshold)

Linear interpolation shall be used to determine the percentage of TSR Units earned in the event the Company TSR Percentile Ranking falls between the (i) 25th and 37.5th percentiles, (ii) the 37.5th and 50th percentiles, (iii) the 50th and 75th percentiles or (iv) the 75th and 90th percentiles listed in the above chart.  The Company TSR Percentile Ranking will be determined as set forth in Section 2(c) below.
2

(b)    Calculation of TSR.  “TSR” means total stockholder return, which shall be calculated as follows:
			
	“TSR” = Change in Stock Price + Dividends Paid

	Beginning Stock Price

(i)    Beginning Stock Price shall mean the average of the Closing Prices for each of the twenty (20) trading days immediately prior to the first trading day of the Performance Period;
(ii)    Ending Stock Price shall mean the average of the Closing Prices for each of the last twenty (20) trading days of the Performance Period;
(iii)    Change in Stock Price shall equal the Ending Stock Price minus the Beginning Stock Price;
(iv)    Dividends Paid shall mean the total of all dividends paid on one (1) share of Common Stock during the Performance Period, provided that dividends shall be treated as though they are reinvested;
(v)    Closing Price shall mean the last reported sale price on the applicable stock exchange or market of one (1) share of Common Stock for a particular trading day; and
(vi)    In all events, TSR shall be adjusted to give effect to any stock dividends, stock splits, reverse stock splits and similar transactions.

(c)    Calculation of Company TSR Percentile Ranking.  The Company shall determine (i) the Company’s TSR for the Performance Period and (ii) the TSR for the Performance Period of each company that was included in the S&P MidCap 400 Index as of the last day of the Performance Period.  The Company TSR Percentile Ranking shall mean the percentage of TSRs of the companies included the S&P MidCap 400 Index as of the last day of the Performance Period that are lower than the Company’s TSR for the Performance Period.
3.    Form and Timing of Payments Under Award.
(a)    Following the end of the Performance Period, the Committee shall determine whether and the extent to which the Company’s cumulative Free Cash Flow and the Company TSR Percentile Ranking (the “Performance Goals”) have been achieved for the Performance Period and shall determine the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, issuable to the Participant with respect to the level of achievement of the Performance Goals; provided that with respect to any Award, the Committee shall have certified the achievement of the Performance Goals.  The Committee’s determination with respect to the achievement of the Performance Goals shall be based on the Company’s financial statements and other relevant information, subject to any adjustments made by the Committee in accordance with this Section 3.
3

(b)    Notwithstanding satisfaction, achievement or completion of the Performance Goals (or any adjustments thereto as provided below), the number of shares of Common Stock issuable hereunder may be reduced or eliminated by the Committee on the basis of such further considerations as the Committee in its sole discretion shall determine.  The Committee shall have the right to adjust or modify the calculation of the Performance Goals as permitted under the Plan.
(c)    The Units earned pursuant to this Award shall be paid out to the Participant in shares of Common Stock as soon as reasonably practicable following the Committee’s determination, but in no event later than March 15, 2024.  For the avoidance of doubt, fractional shares of Common Stock shall be rounded down to the nearest whole number without any payment therefor.
4.    Change in Control.
(a)    In the event a Change in Control occurs during the Performance Period, then immediately before such Change in Control, any unvested outstanding Units shall be converted (without proration for the percentage of the Performance Period that has elapsed) into time-based restricted stock units (vesting on the last day of the Performance Period); provided, that the number of Units that shall be converted into time-based restricted stock units shall be based on (i) actual performance through the date of the Change of Control as determined by the Committee or (ii) if the Committee determines that measurement of actual performance cannot be reasonably assessed, the assumed achievement of Target performance as determined by the Committee.  If, to the extent applicable, such time-based restricted stock units are not assumed or replaced by the acquirer/continuing entity in connection with such Change in Control on terms deemed by the Committee to be substantially equivalent, then all such time-based restricted stock units shall vest (and the restrictions thereon shall lapse) on the date of the Change in Control and shall be paid out to the Participant in shares of Common Stock as soon as practicable following the Committee’s determination, but in no event later than seventy-four (74) days following the last day of the calendar year in which the Change in Control occurred.  Any such determination(s) by the Committee shall be final and binding on all parties, absent manifest error.
(b)    In the event the Participant’s employment or service to the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated prior to the end of the Performance Period by the Company or its Subsidiaries other than for Cause (and other than due to death or Disability), or by the Participant for Good Reason, in each case following a Change in Control, then the Participant shall become vested in the time-based restricted stock units received pursuant to Section 4(a) above and the restrictions thereon shall immediately lapse as of the date of such termination of employment or service; provided, in each case, that the number of restricted stock units that shall become fully vested and free from such restrictions shall be prorated based on the time elapsed from the Award Date to the date of termination of employment or service.  The restricted stock units earned in accordance with the foregoing shall be paid out to the Participant in shares of Common Stock as soon as practicable following the Committee’s determination, but in no event later than 
4

seventy-four (74) days following the last day of the calendar year in which the termination of employment occurred.
5.    Termination of Employment or Service.
(a)    If the Participant ceases employment or service to the Company and its Subsidiaries for any reason prior to the end of the Performance Period (except following a Change in Control as described in Section 4(b) above), the Units shall be immediately canceled and the Participant shall thereupon cease to have any right or entitlement to receive any shares of Common Stock under the Award.
(b)    Notwithstanding Sections 3(c) and 5(a) above, in the event the Participant’s employment or service to the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated by the Company or its Subsidiaries due to death or Disability, outstanding Units granted to the Participant shall become vested and the restrictions thereon shall immediately lapse as of the date of such termination of employment or service; provided, that the portion of any such Units that shall become fully vested and free from such restrictions shall be based on (i) actual performance through the date of termination as determined by the Committee or (ii) if the Committee determines that measurement of actual performance cannot be reasonably assessed, the assumed achievement of Target performance as determined by the Committee, in each case prorated based on the time elapsed from the Award Date to the date of termination of employment or service.  The Units earned in accordance with the foregoing shall be paid out to the Participant in shares of Common Stock as soon as practicable following the Committee’s determination, but in no event later than seventy-four (74) days following the last day of the calendar year in which the termination of employment occurred.
(c)    In addition, notwithstanding Section 5(a) above, in the event the Participant’s employment or service to the Company and its Subsidiaries is terminated by the Company or its Subsidiaries prior to the end of the Performance Period other than for Cause (and other than (i) due to death or Disability as described in Section 5(b) above or (ii) by the Company other than for Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason following a Change in Control as described in Section 4(b) above), the Units shall become vested and the restrictions thereon shall immediately lapse as of the date of such termination of employment or service; provided, that the portion of any such Units that shall become fully vested and free from such restrictions shall be based on actual performance through the end of the Performance Period as determined by the Committee in accordance with Section 3 above, prorated based on the time elapsed from the Award Date to the date of termination of employment or service.  The Units earned in accordance with the foregoing shall be paid out to the Participant in shares of Common Stock as soon as practicable following the Committee’s determination, subject to and in accordance with Section 3 above.
6.    Dividend Equivalent Rights.  Each Unit shall also have a dividend equivalent right 
(a “Dividend Equivalent Right”).  Each Dividend Equivalent Right represents the right to receive all of the ordinary cash dividends that are or would be payable with respect to the Units.  With respect to each Dividend Equivalent Right, any such cash dividends shall be converted into additional Units based on the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the date such 
5

dividend is paid. Such additional Units shall be subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the Unit to which the Dividend Equivalent Right relates, including, without limitation, the restrictions on transfer, forfeiture, vesting and payment provisions contained in this Agreement.  In the event that a Unit is forfeited as provided in Sections 3 and 5 above, then the related Dividend Equivalent Right shall also be forfeited.
7.    Withholding Taxes.  The Participant shall be required to pay to the Company, and the Company shall have the right and is hereby authorized to withhold, from any cash, shares of Common Stock, other securities or other property deliverable in respect of the Units or from any compensation or other amounts owing to the Participant, the amount (in cash, Common Stock, other securities or other property) of any required withholding taxes in respect of the Units, and to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Committee or the Company to satisfy all obligations for the payment of such withholding and taxes.  In addition, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit the Participant to satisfy, in whole or in part, the foregoing withholding liability (but no more than the withholding liability calculated using the highest marginal tax rate) by (a) the delivery of shares of Common Stock (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest) owned by the Participant having a Fair Market Value equal to such withholding liability or (b) having the Company withhold from the number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable or deliverable upon settlement of the Units a number of shares with a Fair Market Value equal to such withholding liability.  The obligations of the Company under this Agreement will be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Company will, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant. If no election is made by the Participant, the Company will withhold shares of Common Stock to satisfy the minimum statutory required tax withholding.
8.    Securities Laws.  The Participant agrees that the obligation of the Company to issue shares of Common Stock upon the achievement of the Performance Goal shall also be subject, as conditions precedent, to compliance with applicable provisions of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, state securities or corporation laws, rules and regulations under any of the foregoing and applicable requirements of any securities exchange upon which the Company’s securities shall be listed.
9.    Bound by Plan.  The Units have been granted subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a copy of which has been provided to the Participant and which the Participant acknowledges having received and reviewed.  Any conflict between this Agreement and the Plan shall be decided in favor of the provisions of the Plan.  Any conflict between this Agreement and the terms of a written employment agreement for the Participant that has been approved, ratified or confirmed by the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) or the Committee shall be decided in favor of the provisions of such employment agreement.  This Agreement may not be amended, altered, suspended, discontinued, cancelled or terminated in any manner that would materially and adversely affect the rights of the Participant except by a written agreement executed by the Participant and the Company.
6

10.    Clawback.  This Award of Units is subject to the clawback and forfeiture provisions of Section 14(u) of the Plan and any subsequent clawback or forfeiture policy adopted by the Board or the Committee that is communicated to the Participant or that is consistent with applicable law, whether the Award was granted before or after the effective date of any such clawback or forfeiture policy. Consistent with Section 14(u) of the Plan, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, cancel the Award if the Participant, without the consent of the Company, while employed by or providing services to the Company or any Affiliate or after termination of such employment or service, violates a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement or otherwise has engaged in or engages in any Detrimental Activity that is in conflict with or adverse to the interest of the Company or any Affiliate, including fraud or conduct contributing to any financial restatements or irregularities, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. If the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, that the Participant has engaged in or engages in any activity referred to in the preceding sentence, the Committee may require the Participant to forfeit any gain realized on the vesting of the Award and to repay the gain to the Company. In addition, if the Participant receives any amount in excess of what the Participant should have received under the terms of the Award for any reason (including, without limitation, by reason of a financial restatement, mistake in calculations or other administrative error), then the Participant shall be required to repay any such excess amount to the Company.
11.    Electronic Delivery.  By accepting the Award evidenced by this Agreement, the Participant hereby consents to the electronic delivery of all documentation, including prospectuses, annual reports and other information required to be delivered by Securities and Exchange Commission rules. This consent may be revoked in writing by the Participant at any time upon three (3) business days’ notice to the Company, in which case all documents, including subsequent prospectuses, annual reports and other information, will be delivered in hard copy to the Participant.
12.    Notices.  Notices and communications under this Agreement must be in writing and either personally delivered or sent by registered or certified United States mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. Notices to the Company must be addressed to The Wendy’s Company, One Dave Thomas Boulevard, Dublin, Ohio 43017, Attention: Corporate Secretary, or any other address designated by the Company in a written notice to the Participant. Notices to the Participant will be directed to the address of the Participant then currently on file with the Company, or at any other address given by the Participant in a written notice to the Company.
13.    No Right to Employment.  This grant does not constitute an employment contract.  Nothing in this Agreement or the Plan shall (a) confer upon the Participant the right to continue to serve as a director or officer to, or to continue as an employee or service provider of, the Company or its Affiliates during all or any portion of the Performance Period or (b) be deemed to be a modification or waiver of the terms and conditions set forth in any written employment agreement for the Participant that has been approved, ratified or confirmed by the Board or the Committee.
7

14.    Section 409A of the Code.  If any provision of this Agreement could cause the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code upon the vesting or settlement of the Units (or any portion thereof), such provision shall be restructured, to the minimum extent possible, in a manner determined by the Company (and reasonably acceptable to the Participant) that does not cause such an accelerated or additional tax.  It is intended that this Agreement shall not be subject to Section 409A of the Code by reason of the short-term deferral rule under Treas. Reg. Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), and this Agreement shall be interpreted accordingly.
15.    Governing Law; Venue.  This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and performed wholly within the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. For purposes of litigating any dispute that arises under this Agreement, unless otherwise provided in a written employment agreement or letter, arbitration agreement or severance agreement and release executed by the parties, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the jurisdiction of the State of Ohio, agree that such litigation shall be conducted in the courts of Franklin County in the State of Ohio, or the federal courts for the Southern District of Ohio, where the grant of Units is made and/or to be performed.
16.    Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  Furthermore, delivery of a copy of a counterpart signature by facsimile or electronic transmission shall constitute a valid and binding execution and delivery of this Agreement, and such copy shall constitute an enforceable original document.
17.    Electronic Signature.  This Agreement may be executed and exchanged by facsimile or electronic mail transmission, and the facsimile or electronically transmitted copies of each party’s respective signature will be binding as if the same were an original signature.  This Agreement may also be executed through the use of electronic signature, which the Company and Participant acknowledge is a lawful means of obtaining signatures in the United States.  Each party agrees that its electronic signature is the legal equivalent of such party’s manually written signature on this Agreement and therefore shall be the same, and shall have the same force and effect, as such party’s manually written signature.  Each party further agrees that its use of a key pad, mouse or other device to select an item, button or icon, or to perform any other similar act/action, regarding any agreement, acknowledgement, consent terms, disclosures or conditions constitutes such party’s signature, acceptance and agreement as if actually signed by such party in writing.  Furthermore, to the extent applicable, all references to signatures in this Agreement may be satisfied by procedures that the Company or a third party designated by the Company has established or may establish for an electronic signature system.
18.    Data Privacy.  The Participant agrees and acknowledges that by entering into this Agreement and accepting this Award, the Participant (a) consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of any of the Participant’s personal data that is necessary or appropriate to facilitate the implementation, administration and management of this Award and the Plan, (b) understands that the Company may, for purposes of implementing, administering 
8

and managing the Plan, hold certain personal information about the Participant, including, without limitation, the Participant’s name, home address, telephone number, date of birth, social security number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, and details of all awards or entitlements to awards granted to the Participant under the Plan or otherwise (“Personal Data”), (c) understands that Personal Data may be transferred to any third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, including any broker with whom the shares of Common Stock issued upon vesting of the Award may be deposited, and that these recipients may be located in the United States or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than the United States, (d) waives, solely for purposes of implementing, administering and managing the Award and the Plan, any data privacy rights that the Participant may have with respect to the Personal Data, and (e) authorizes the Company, its Affiliates and its agents, to store and transmit such Personal Data and related information in electronic form. The Participant understands that the Participant is providing consent under this Section on a purely voluntary basis. If the Participant does not consent, or if the Participant later seeks to revoke consent, the Participant’s employment status or service with the Company will not be affected; the only consequence of the Participant’s refusing or withdrawing consent is that the Company would not be able to grant the Award or other awards to the Participant or implement, administer or maintain such awards.  
19.    Validity of Agreement.  This Agreement shall be valid, binding and effective upon the Company on the Award Date.  However, the Units evidenced by this Agreement shall be forfeited by the Participant and this Agreement shall have no force and effect if this Agreement is duly rejected.  The Participant may reject this Agreement and forfeit the Units by notifying the Company or its designee in the manner prescribed by the Company and communicated to the Participant; provided that such rejection must be received by the Company or its designee no later than the earlier of (a) the date that is 90 days from the Award Date and (b) the date the Units first vest pursuant to the terms hereof.  If this Agreement is rejected on or prior to such date, the Units evidenced by this Agreement shall be forfeited, and neither the Participant nor the Participant’s heirs, executors, administrators and successors shall have any rights with respect thereto.
20.    Transferability. This Award shall not be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against the Company or an Affiliate; provided that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance. The shares of Common Stock acquired by the Participant upon settlement of the Units may not be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by the Participant, unless in compliance with all applicable securities laws as set forth in Section 8 above. The Participant shall not be deemed for any purpose to be the owner of any shares of Common Stock subject to the Units prior to settlement of any vested Units.
21.    Beneficiary. The Participant may designate in writing one or more beneficiaries to receive the stock certificates (or, if applicable, a notice evidencing book entry notation) 
9

representing those Units that become vested and non-forfeitable and settled upon the Participant’s death. The Participant has the right to change any such beneficiary designation at will.
22.    Impact on Other Benefits. The value of the Units (either on the Award Date or at the time any Units become vested and/or settled) shall not be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, profit sharing, group insurance or other benefit plan of the Company except as otherwise specifically provided in such other plan.
23.    Administration. The Committee shall have full authority and discretion (subject only to the express provisions of the Plan) to decide all matters relating to the administration and interpretation of this Agreement. All such Committee determinations shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon the Company, the Participant, and any and all interested parties.
24.    Successors. This Agreement shall be binding and inure to the benefit of the successors, assigns and heirs of the respective parties.
25.    Force and Effect. The various provisions of this Agreement are severable in their entirety. Any determination of invalidity or unenforceability of any one provision shall have no effect on the continuing force and effect of the remaining provisions.
26.    No Company Advice.  The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding the Participant’s participation in the Plan or the Participant’s s acquisition or sale of the shares of Common Stock.  The Participant should consult with his or her personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.
