SUPPORTINGSTATEMENT: Amazon.com,Inc.’sassetsbelongtoitsshareholders.Theexpenditureordistributionofcorporateassets,includingcharitable contributions, should be consistent with shareholder interests. Accordingly, the Company’s policies and procedures for charitable contributions should be disclosed to shareholders. Companyexecutivesexercise wide discretion over the use of corporate assets for charitable purposes. Absent a system of transparencyandaccountabilityforcharitablecontributions,CompanyexecutivesmayuseCompanyassetsforobjectivesthat are not shared by and may be inimical to the interests of the Company and its shareholders. Current disclosure is insufficient to allow the Company’s Board, its shareholders, and its current and prospective customers to fully evaluate the charitable use of corporate assets. There is currently no single source providing shareholders the information sought by this resolution. EndofShareholderProposalandStatementofSupport 2022ProxyStatement 53
