Ladies and Gentlemen:

for whom you are acting as managers (the “Managers”), the principal amount of its debt securities identified in Schedule I
hereto (the “Securities”), to be issued under the indenture specified in Schedule I hereto (the “Indenture”)
between the Company and the Trustee identified in such Schedule (the “Trustee”). If the firm or firms listed in Schedule II
hereto include only the Managers listed in Schedule I hereto, then the terms “Underwriters” and “Managers”
as used herein shall each be deemed to refer to such firm or firms.
The Company has filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement, including a prospectus (the file number of which is set forth
in Schedule I hereto) on Form S-3, relating to securities (the “Shelf Securities”), including the Securities,
to be issued from time to time by the Company. The registration statement as amended to the date of this Agreement, including the information
(if any) deemed to be part of the registration statement at the time of effectiveness pursuant to Rule 430A or Rule 430B under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), is hereinafter referred to as the “Registration
Statement,” and the related prospectus covering the Shelf Securities dated February 6, 2026 is hereinafter referred to
as the “Basic Prospectus.” The Basic Prospectus, as supplemented by the prospectus supplement specifically relating
to the Securities in the form first used to confirm sales of the Securities (or in the form first made available to the Underwriters by
the Company to meet requests of purchasers pursuant to Rule 173 under the Securities Act) is hereinafter referred to as the “Prospectus,”
and the term “preliminary prospectus” means any preliminary form of the Prospectus. For purposes of this Agreement,
“free writing prospectus” has the meaning set forth in Rule 405 under the Securities Act and relating to the offering
of the Securities, “Time of Sale Prospectus” means the documents set forth opposite the caption “Time of Sale
Prospectus” in Schedule I hereto, and “broadly available road show” means a “bona fide electronic road

As used herein, the terms “Registration Statement,” “Basic Prospectus,” “preliminary prospectus,”
“Time of Sale Prospectus,” “Prospectus”, “Preliminary Canadian Offering Memorandum” (as defined below)
and “Canadian Offering Memorandum” (as defined below) shall include the documents, if any, incorporated by reference therein
on the date hereof. The terms “supplement,” “amendment,” and “amend” as used
herein with respect to the Registration Statement, the Basic Prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any preliminary prospectus, the
Prospectus, the Preliminary Canadian Offering Memorandum or the Canadian Offering Memorandum shall include all documents subsequently
filed by the Company with the Commission pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
that are deemed to be incorporated by reference therein.

References to “Canadian Securities Laws”
shall mean all applicable securities laws in each of the provinces of Canada, and the respective regulations and rules promulgated
under such laws together with applicable published rules, policy statements, blanket rulings and orders, instruments, rulings and notices
of the regulatory authority in such provinces.
The Company has prepared a preliminary Canadian
offering memorandum dated June 8, 2026 relating to the Securities, which includes the preliminary prospectus (the “Preliminary
Canadian Offering Memorandum”), and the Company agrees to prepare a Canadian offering memorandum dated June 8, 2026 relating

to Sell and Purchase. The Company hereby agrees to sell to the several Underwriters, and each Underwriter, upon the basis of the representations
and warranties herein contained, but subject to the conditions hereinafter stated, agrees, severally and not jointly, to purchase from
the Company the respective principal amounts of Securities set forth in Schedule II hereto opposite its name at the purchase price
set forth in Schedule I hereto.
3. Public
Offering. The Company is advised by you that the Underwriters propose to make a public offering in the United States of their respective
portions of the Securities as soon after the Registration Statement and this Agreement have become effective as in your judgment is advisable.
The Company is further advised by you that the Securities are to be offered to the public in the United States upon the terms set forth
in the Prospectus. It is understood and agreed that the offering of the Securities in Canada by the Underwriters as contemplated herein
shall be made in the provinces of Canada on a private placement basis in accordance with applicable exemptions from the prospectus requirements
of applicable Canadian Securities Laws.
4. Payment
and Delivery. Payment for the Securities shall be made to the Company in Federal or other funds immediately available in New York
City on the closing date and time set forth in Schedule I hereto, or at such other time on the same or such other date, not later
than the second business day thereafter, as may be designated in writing by you. The time and date of such payment are hereinafter referred
to as the “Closing Date.”
The Securities will be issued in the form of one
or more definitive global Securities in book-entry form. Payment for the Securities shall be made against delivery to you of certificates
representing Securities on the Closing Date for the respective accounts of the several Underwriters of the Securities registered in the
name of CDS & Co., as nominee of CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (“CDS”), and in such denominations
as you shall request in writing not later than one full business day prior to the Closing Date, with any transfer taxes payable in connection
with the transfer of the Securities to the Underwriters duly paid. Delivery of the Securities shall be made through the facilities of
CDS unless the Company and the Managers shall otherwise agree. The Underwriters shall cause their Canadian counsel to deposit the certificates
representing the Securities with CDS.
5. Conditions
to the Underwriters’ Obligations. The several obligations of the Underwriters are subject to the following conditions:
7
(a) Subsequent
to the execution and delivery of this Agreement and prior to the Closing Date:
(i) there
shall not have occurred any downgrading, nor shall any notice have been given of (A) any intended or potential downgrading or (B) any
review or possible change that does not indicate the direction of the possible change in the rating accorded any securities of or guaranteed
by the Company by any “nationally recognized statistical rating organization” (as such term is defined in Section 3(a)(62)
of the Exchange Act); and
(ii) there
shall not have occurred any change, or any development involving a prospective change, in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in
the earnings, business or operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, from that set forth in the Time of Sale Prospectus
that, in your judgment, is material and adverse and that makes it, in your judgment, impracticable to market the Securities on the terms
and in the manner contemplated in the Time of Sale Prospectus.
(b) The
Underwriters shall have received on the Closing Date a certificate, dated the Closing Date and signed by Antonio Masone, Vice President
and Treasurer of the Company, or by an executive officer of the Company, to the effect set forth in Section 5(a)(i) above and
to the effect that the representations and warranties of the Company contained in this Agreement are true and correct as of the Closing
Date, that the Company has complied with all of the agreements and satisfied all of the conditions on its part to be performed or satisfied
hereunder on or before the Closing Date and that no order, ruling or decision of any Canadian federal or provincial court or securities
regulatory authority restricting or ceasing trading in any of the securities of the Company or suspending or preventing the use of the
Preliminary Canadian Offering Memorandum or the Canadian Offering Memorandum has been issued and no notification from any Canadian federal
or provincial court or securities regulatory authority of the institution or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose has been received.
The officer signing and delivering such certificate
may rely upon the best of his or her knowledge as to proceedings threatened.
(c) The
Underwriters shall have received on the Closing Date an opinion of Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher LLP, outside counsel for the Company,
dated the Closing Date, in the form agreed between such counsel and the Managers.

(f) The
Underwriters shall have received on the Closing Date an opinion of McCarthy Tétrault LLP, Canadian counsel for the Underwriters,
dated the Closing Date with respect to such matters as the Underwriters shall request.
(g) The
Underwriters shall have received, on each of the date hereof and the Closing Date, a letter dated the date hereof or the Closing Date,
as the case may be, in form and substance satisfactory to the Underwriters, from Ernst & Young LLP, independent public accountants,
containing statements and information of the type ordinarily included in accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters
with respect to the financial statements and certain financial information contained in the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale Prospectus,
the Prospectus and the Canadian Offering Memorandum.
(h) The

6. Covenants
of the Company. The Company covenants with each Underwriter as follows:
(a) To
furnish to you, without charge, a signed copy of the Registration Statement (including exhibits thereto and documents incorporated by
reference therein) and to deliver to each of the Underwriters during the period mentioned in Section 6(e) or
6(f) below, as many copies of the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, any documents
incorporated by reference therein and any supplements and amendments thereto or to the Registration Statement as you may reasonably request.
(b) During
any period when a prospectus relating to the Securities is required to be delivered under the Act (including circumstances where such
requirement may be satisfied pursuant to Rule 172), before amending or supplementing the Registration Statement, the Time of Sale
Prospectus, the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum, (i) to furnish to you a copy of each such proposed amendment or supplement
and (ii) not to file any such proposed amendment or supplement to which you reasonably object (except, in the case of subclause (ii),
for (A) an amendment or supplement consisting solely of the filing of a document under the Exchange Act or (B) a supplement
relating to any offering of securities other than the Securities).
(c) To
furnish to you a copy of each proposed free writing prospectus to be prepared by or on behalf of, used by, or referred to by the Company
and not to use or refer to any proposed free writing prospectus to which you reasonably object.
9
(d) Not
to take any action that would result in an Underwriter or the Company being required to file with the Commission pursuant to Rule 433(d) under
the Securities Act a free writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of the Underwriter that the Underwriter otherwise would not have
been required to file thereunder.
(e) If
the Time of Sale Prospectus is being used to solicit offers to buy the Securities at a time when the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering
Memorandum is not yet available to prospective purchasers and any event shall occur or condition exist as a result of which it is necessary
to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances, not misleading,
or contain a ”misrepresentation” as defined under applicable Canadian Securities Laws, or if any event shall occur or condition
exist as a result of which the Time of Sale Prospectus conflicts with the information contained in the Registration Statement then on
file, or if, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Time of Sale Prospectus to comply
with applicable law, forthwith to prepare, file with the Commission and furnish, at its own expense, to the Underwriters and to any dealer
upon request, either amendments or supplements to the Time of Sale Prospectus so that the statements in the Time of Sale Prospectus as
so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the circumstances when the Time of Sale Prospectus is delivered to a prospective
purchaser, be misleading or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will no longer conflict with the Registration
Statement, or so that the Time of Sale Prospectus, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable law.
(f) If,
during such period after the first date of the public offering of the Securities, as in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters the
Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of the Securities Act) or the Canadian Offering Memorandum
is required by law to be delivered in connection with sales by an Underwriter or dealer, any event shall occur or condition exist as a
result of which it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum in order to make the statements
therein, in the light of the circumstances when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of
the Securities Act) is delivered to a purchaser, not misleading or contain a “misrepresentation” as defined under applicable
Canadian Securities Laws, or if, in the opinion of counsel for the Underwriters, it is necessary to amend or supplement the Prospectus
or the Canadian Offering Memorandum to comply with applicable law, forthwith to prepare, file with the Commission and furnish, at its
own expense, to the Underwriters and to the dealers (whose names and addresses you will furnish to the Company) to which Securities may
have been sold by you on behalf of the Underwriters and to any other dealers upon request, either amendments or supplements to the Prospectus
or the Canadian Offering Memorandum so that the statements in the Prospectus as so amended or supplemented will not, in the light of the
circumstances when the Prospectus (or in lieu thereof the notice referred to in Rule 173(a) of the Securities Act) is delivered
to a purchaser, be misleading or contain a “misrepresentation” as
10
defined under applicable Canadian
Securities Laws or so that the Prospectus and the Canadian Offering Memorandum, as amended or supplemented, will comply with applicable
law. Provided that the Underwriters comply with Section 7(g) hereof, the Company will cause to be provided or filed all documents
required to be provided to or filed with the applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities in connection with the offering of
Securities in the provinces of Canada in accordance with applicable Canadian Securities Laws, including, without limitation, any offering
memorandum (under applicable Canadian Securities Laws) and any reports of trade on Form 45-106F1 – Report of Exempt Distribution
(“Form 45-106F1”) prescribed by National Instrument 45-106 – Prospectus Exemptions (“NI
45-106”), as applicable.
(g) To
endeavor to qualify the Securities for offer and sale under the securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as you shall reasonably
request; provided that the Company shall not be required to (i) qualify as a foreign corporation or other entity or as a dealer in
securities in any such jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to so qualify, (ii) file any general consent to service
of process in any such jurisdiction or (iii) subject itself to taxation in any such jurisdiction if it is not otherwise so subject.
(h) To
make generally available to the Company’s security holders and to you as soon as practicable an earning statement that shall satisfy
the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder, including
Rule 158.
(i) The
Company agrees to pay the costs and expenses relating to the following matters: (i) the preparation, printing, or reproduction and

and charges for counting and packaging) of such copies of the Registration Statement, each preliminary prospectus, the Prospectus, the
Preliminary Canadian Offering Memorandum, the Canadian Offering Memorandum and each free writing prospectus, and all amendments or supplements
to any of them, as may, in each case, be reasonably requested for use in connection with the offering and sale of the Securities; (iii) the
preparation, printing, authentication, issuance and delivery of certificates for the Securities, including any stamp or transfer taxes
in connection with the original issuance and sale of the Securities; (iv) the printing (or reproduction) and delivery of this Agreement,
and all other agreements or documents printed (or reproduced) and delivered in connection with the offering of the Securities; (v) the
registration of the Securities under the Exchange Act; (vi) any registration or qualification of the Securities for offer and sale
under the securities or Blue Sky laws of the several states (including filing fees and the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel for
the Underwriters relating to such registration and qualification); (vii) the transportation and other expenses incurred
11
by or on behalf of Company representatives in connection
with presentations to prospective purchasers of the Securities; (viii) the fees and expenses of the Company’s accountants and
the fees and expenses of counsel (including local and special counsel) for the Company; (ix) all fees and expenses (including fees
and expenses of counsel) of the Company in connection with approval of the Securities by CDS for “book-entry” transfer; (x) all
fees payable in connection with the filing of any Form 45-106F1 with applicable Canadian securities regulatory authorities; (xi) any
levy or fees payable to the Canadian Investment Regulatory Organization; and (xii) all other costs and expenses incident to the performance
by the Company of its obligations hereunder. It is understood, however, that except as provided in this Section and Section 8
and the penultimate paragraph of Section 10, the Underwriters will pay all of their own costs and expenses, including the fees and
disbursements of their counsel and any advertising expenses connected with any offers they may make.
(j) During
the period beginning on the date hereof and continuing to and including the Closing Date, not to offer, sell, contract to sell or otherwise
dispose of any debt securities of the Company or warrants to purchase or otherwise acquire debt securities of the Company substantially
similar to the Securities (other than (i) the Securities, (ii) commercial paper issued in the ordinary course of business or
(iii) securities or warrants permitted with the prior written consent of the Managers identified in Schedule I with the authorization
to release this lock-up on behalf of the Underwriters).
(k) To
prepare a final term sheet relating to the offering of the Securities, containing only information that describes the final terms of the
Securities or the offering in a form consented to by the Managers, and to file such final term sheet within the period required by Rule 433(d)(5)(ii) under
the Securities Act following the date the final terms have been established for the offering of the Securities.
(l) The
Company will use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the eligibility of the Securities for clearance and settlement through the
facilities of CDS.
7. Covenants
of the Underwriters. Each Underwriter severally covenants with the Company that:
(a) it
will not take any action that would result in the Company being required to file with the Commission under Rule 433(d) a free
writing prospectus prepared by or on behalf of such Underwriter that otherwise would not be required to be filed by the Company thereunder,
but for the action of the Underwriter;
(b) the
sale and delivery of any Security to any purchaser located or resident in Canada (each, a “Canadian Purchaser”) by
such Underwriter shall be made only in accordance with the condition that
12
such Canadian Purchaser: (i) is an “accredited investor”
as defined in Section 73.3 of the Securities Act (Ontario) or in Section 1.1 of NI 45-106 purchasing or deemed to be
purchasing the Security as principal; (ii) is not a person created or being used solely to purchase or hold securities as an accredited
investor as described in paragraph (m) of the definition of “accredited investor” in section 1.1 of NI 45-106; and (iii) is
a “permitted client” as defined in National Instrument 31-103 – Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing
Registrant Obligations; and such Underwriter has taken or will take reasonable steps to confirm that each Canadian Purchaser meets
the terms and conditions of the “accredited investor exemption” as defined in NI 45-106 (collectively, the “AI Requirements”)
and shall obtain, as necessary, and retain relevant information and documentation to evidence the steps taken to verify compliance with
the AI Requirements in accordance with its usual document retention policies and procedures in compliance with applicable laws, and will
provide to the Company forthwith upon written request all such information or documentation as the Company may reasonably request in good
faith and solely for the purpose of verifying compliance with the AI Requirements;
(c) it
has not provided and will not provide any Canadian Purchaser any document or other material that would constitute an “offering memorandum”
within the meaning of Canadian Securities Laws (other than the Preliminary Canadian Offering Memorandum and the Canadian Offering Memorandum)
with respect to the private placement of the Securities in Canada;
(d) except
as disclosed in the Canadian Offering Memorandum, is not a person or company in respect of which the Company is a “connected issuer”
or a “related issuer” within the respective meanings of those terms in National Instrument 33-105 – Underwriting Conflicts
of the Canadian Securities Administrators;
(e) it
is duly registered as an “investment dealer” or “exempt market dealer” as defined under Canadian Securities Laws
or is otherwise exempt from the dealer registration requirements of Canadian Securities Laws in the applicable Canadian provinces in connection
with the offer and sale of the Securities to Canadian Purchasers;
(f) it
will comply in all material respects with all relevant Canadian Securities Laws in distributing the Securities; and
(g) it
will, as soon as available and in any event within three (3) business days following the Closing Date, provide to the Company the
information pertaining to each such Canadian Purchaser of the Notes as required to be disclosed in Schedule I of Form 45-106F1 under
NI 45-106, which Form 45-106F1 is required to be filed by the Company
13
under NI 45-106 with the Canadian securities regulatory authorities
in the provinces of Canada in which each such Canadian Purchaser resides.
8. Indemnity
and Contribution.
(a) The
Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter, each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of
either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each affiliate of any Underwriter within the meaning
of Rule 405 under the Securities Act from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without limitation,
any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by (i) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement or any amendment thereof, or caused
by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements
therein, not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact, or “misrepresentation”
as defined under applicable Canadian Securities Laws, as applicable, contained in any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus
or any amendment or supplement thereto (to the extent amended or supplemented by the Company), any issuer free writing prospectus as defined
in Rule 433(h) under the Securities Act, any Company information that the Company has filed, or is required to file, pursuant
to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act, any “road show” as defined in Rule 433(h) under the Securities
Act (a “road show”), the Prospectus, the Canadian Offering Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto, or caused
by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages, or
liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating
to any Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through you expressly for use therein.
(b) Each
Underwriter agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its directors, its officers and each person,
if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange
Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to such Underwriter, but only with reference to information relating
to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by such Underwriter through you expressly for use in the Registration Statement,
any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, any issuer free writing prospectus, road show, the Prospectus, the Canadian Offering
Memorandum or any amendment or supplement thereto.
14
(c) In
case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which
indemnity may be sought pursuant to Section 8(a) or 8(b),
such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought
(the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party shall be entitled to assume the defense of all
indemnified persons in connection with such proceeding, using counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent
the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable fees and
disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to
retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless
(i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have mutually agreed to the contrary, (ii) the indemnifying
party has failed within a reasonable time to retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party or (iii) the named
parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and
(y) representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests
between them or (z) the indemnified party shall have reasonably concluded that there may be defenses available to it that are
different from, additional to, or in conflict with those available to the indemnifying party. It is understood that the indemnifying
party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings
in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for
all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred, but only after receipt of
a reasonably detailed invoice in respect thereof. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the Managers authorized to appoint
counsel under this Section set forth in Schedule I hereto, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a),
and by the Company, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b),
provided, however, that in either such case, counsel shall be reasonably acceptable to the other party. The indemnifying party shall
not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if
there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any
loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified
party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated
by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any
proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by
such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified
party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written
consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding
15
in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have
been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional
release of such indemnified party from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include
a statement as to or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(d) To
the extent the indemnification provided for in Section 8(a) or 8(b) is
unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages, or liabilities referred to therein, then
each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount
paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is
appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand from the offering
of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause 8(d)(i) above
is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative benefits referred to in clause
8(d)(i) above but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of
the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages, or liabilities,
as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters
on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the net
proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discounts
and commissions received by the Underwriters bear to the aggregate initial public offering price of the Securities as set forth in the
Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand
shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission
or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties’
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Underwriters’
respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion
to the respective principal amounts of Securities they have purchased hereunder, and not joint.
(e) The
Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just or equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8
were determined by pro rata allocation (even if the Underwriters were treated as one entity for such purpose) or by any other method
of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 8(d).
The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to in Section 8(d) shall
be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified
party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim.
16
Notwithstanding the provisions
of this Section 8, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount
in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered
to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged
untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies
provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights
or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.
(f) The
indemnity and contribution provisions contained in this Section 8 and the representations,
warranties and other statements of the Company contained in this Agreement shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless
of (i) any termination of this Agreement, (ii) any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter, any person controlling
any Underwriter or any affiliate of any Underwriter or by or on behalf of the Company, its officers or directors or any person controlling
the Company and (iii) acceptance of and payment for any of the Securities.
9. Termination.
The Underwriters may terminate this Agreement by notice given by you to the Company, if after the execution and delivery of this Agreement
and prior to the Closing Date (i) trading generally shall have been suspended or materially limited on, or by, as the case may be,
the New York Stock Exchange or the Nasdaq Global Market, (ii) trading of any securities of the Company shall have been suspended
on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, (iii) a material disruption in securities settlement, payment, or clearance services in the United
States or Canada shall have occurred, (iv) any general moratorium on commercial banking activities shall have been declared by Federal,
New York State or Canadian authorities or (v) there shall have occurred any outbreak or escalation of hostilities, or any change
in financial markets or any calamity or crisis that, in your judgment, is material and adverse and which, singly or together with any
other event specified in this Section 9, makes it, in your judgment, impracticable
or inadvisable to proceed with the offer, sale, or delivery of the Securities on the terms and in the manner contemplated in the Time
of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus or the Canadian Offering Memorandum.
10. Effectiveness;
Defaulting Underwriters. This Agreement shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto.
If, on the Closing Date, any one or more of the
Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase the Securities that it has or they have agreed to purchase hereunder on such date, and the
aggregate principal amount of the Securities which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or refused to purchase
is not more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such
17
date, the other Underwriters shall be
obligated severally in the proportions that the principal amount of Securities set forth opposite their respective names in Schedule II
bears to the aggregate principal amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all such non-defaulting Underwriters, or in such
other proportions as you may specify, to purchase the Securities which such defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed or
refused to purchase on such date; provided that in no event shall the principal amount of the Securities that any Underwriter has
agreed to purchase pursuant to this Agreement be increased pursuant to this Section 10 by an amount in excess of one-ninth
of such principal amount of the Securities without the written consent of such Underwriter. If, on the Closing Date, any Underwriter or
Underwriters shall fail or refuse to purchase Securities and the aggregate principal amount of the Securities with respect to which such
default occurs is more than one-tenth of the aggregate principal amount of the Securities to be purchased on such date, and arrangements
satisfactory to you and the Company for the purchase of such Securities are not made within 36 hours after such default, this Agreement
shall terminate without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company. In any such case either you or the Company
shall have the right to postpone the Closing Date, but in no event for longer than seven days, in order that the required changes, if
any, in the Registration Statement, in the Time of Sale Prospectus, in the Prospectus, the Canadian Offering Memorandum or in any other
documents or arrangements may be effected. Any action taken under this paragraph shall not relieve any defaulting Underwriter from liability
in respect of any default of such Underwriter under this Agreement.
If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters,
or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions
of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement the Company will reimburse
the Underwriters or such Underwriters as have so terminated this Agreement with respect to themselves, severally, for all out-of-pocket
expenses (including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement
or the offering contemplated hereunder.
In accordance with the requirements of the USA
Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L, 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)), the Underwriters are required to obtain, verify and
record information that identifies their clients, which may include the names and addresses of their clients, as well as other information
that will allow the Underwriters to properly identify their clients.
11. Entire
Agreement.
(a) This
Agreement, together with any contemporaneous written agreements and any prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this
Agreement) that relate to the offering of the Securities, represents the entire agreement between the Company and the Underwriters with
respect to the preparation of any preliminary prospectus, the Time of Sale Prospectus, the Prospectus, the Canadian
18
Offering Memorandum, the conduct of the offering, and the purchase
and sale of the Securities.
(b) The
Company acknowledges that in connection with the offering of the Securities: (i) the Underwriters have acted at arms length, are
not agents of, and owe no fiduciary duties to, the Company or any other person, (ii) the Underwriters owe the Company only those
duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement and prior written agreements (to the extent not superseded by this Agreement), if any,
and (iii) the Underwriters may have interests that differ from those of the Company. The Company waives to the full extent permitted
by applicable law any claims it may have against the Underwriters arising from an alleged breach of fiduciary duty in connection with
the offering of the Securities.
12. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall
constitute one instrument. Delivery of this Agreement by one party to the other may be made by facsimile, electronic mail (including any
electronic signature complying with the New York Electronic Signatures and Records Act (N.Y. State Tech. §§ 301-309), as amended
from time to time, or other applicable law) or other transmission method, and the parties hereto agree that any counterpart so delivered
shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and be valid and effective for all purposes.
13. Successors.
This Agreement will inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and the officers, directors,
employees, affiliate and agents, and no other person will have any right or obligation hereunder. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this
Agreement is intended or shall be construed to give any other person, firm or corporation any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim
under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. No purchaser of Securities from the Underwriters shall be deemed
to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.
14. Applicable
Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of New York.
15. Headings.
The headings of the sections of this Agreement have been inserted for convenience of reference only and shall not be deemed a part of
this Agreement.
16. Notices.

set forth in Schedule I hereto.
17. Recognition
of the U.S. Special Resolution Regimes.
19
(a) In
the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer
from such Underwriter of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent
as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were
governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
(b) In
the event that any Underwriter that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Underwriter becomes subject to a proceeding under
a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Underwriter are permitted to
be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement
were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
As used in this Section 17, “BHC Act Affiliate”

in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b); “Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that
term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable; and “U.S.
Special Resolution Regime” means each of (i) the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder

or understanding between the Underwriters and the Company, the Company acknowledges and accepts that a UK Bail-in Liability arising under
this Agreement may be subject to the exercise of UK Bail-in Powers by the relevant UK resolution authority, and acknowledges, accepts,
and agrees to be bound by:
(a) the
effect of the exercise of UK Bail-in Powers by the relevant UK resolution authority in relation to any UK Bail-in Liability of the Underwriters

We, Antonio Masone and Susan

Amazon.com, Inc., a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Company”), do hereby
certify in the name of and on behalf of the Company as follows:
1. The
Underwriting Agreement, dated June 8, 2026, among the Company and the several underwriters named therein, in the form executed by

3. With
reference to the Indenture entered into pursuant to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank,
National Association, as indenture trustee (the “Prior Trustee”) dated as of November 29, 2012 (the “Base
Indenture”), as amended and supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 1 dated as of April 13, 2022 (the “Supplemental

as prior trustee, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as successor trustee (the “Trustee”),
and the Paying Agency Agreement dated as of June 12, 2026 among the Company, the Trustee and Computershare Trust Company of Canada,
this Officers’ Certificate hereby establishes the terms of each series of Notes (as defined herein) pursuant to Section 2.2
of the Indenture (this “Officers’ Certificate”). The undersigned have read the provisions of the Indenture
relating to the establishment of the series of securities to be authenticated and delivered thereunder, including Sections 2.1, 2.2,
2.3, 10.3, and 10.4 of the Base Indenture and the definitions related thereto, as well as such other documents as they have deemed necessary

to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Officers’ Certificate
are used as defined in the Indenture.
4. The
review of such provisions was undertaken in order to permit the undersigned to certify whether all conditions precedent (including any
covenants, compliance with which constitute conditions precedent) provided for in the Indenture, for the establishment of the Notes as
five separate series of securities, the form and terms of which are set forth below, and the authentication and delivery thereof have

5. Accordingly,

1
6. There
is hereby established the following series of securities of the Company for issuance under the Indenture as follows:
(a) The titles of such series of Securities shall be the “3.400% Notes due 2029” (the “2029
Notes”), the “3.700% Notes due 2031” (the “2031 Notes”), the “4.000% Notes due 2033”
(the “2033 Notes”), the “4.350% Notes due 2036” (the “2036 Notes”), and the
“5.000% Notes due 2056” (the “2056 Notes” and, together with the 2029 Notes, the 2031 Notes, the 2033
Notes, and the 2036 Notes, the “Notes”).
(b) The aggregate principal amount of the Notes that may be authenticated and delivered under the Indenture
shall be C$1,250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2029 Notes, C$2,500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2031 Notes, C$2,000,000,000
aggregate principal amount of the 2033 Notes, C$3,500,000,000 aggregate principal amount of the 2036 Notes, and C$4,750,000,000 aggregate
principal amount of the 2056 Notes (except for Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of, transfer of, or in exchange for,
or in lieu of, other Notes pursuant to Sections 2.7, 2.8, 2.11, 3.6, and 9.6 of the Base Indenture).
(c) Unless an earlier redemption has occurred, the principal amount of the outstanding 2029 Notes shall be
payable on June 12, 2029 (the “2029 Stated Maturity”), 2031 Notes shall be payable on June 12, 2031
(the “2031 Stated Maturity”), 2033 Notes shall be payable on June 12, 2033 (the “2033 Stated
Maturity”), 2036 Notes shall be payable on June 12, 2036 (the “2036 Stated Maturity”), and 2056
Notes shall be payable on June 12, 2056 (the “2056 Stated Maturity” and, together with the 2029 Stated Maturity,
the 2031 Stated Maturity, the 2033 Stated Maturity, and the 2036 Stated Maturity, the “Stated Maturities”).
(d) The 2029 Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 3.400% per annum, the 2031 Notes shall bear interest
at the rate of 3.700% per annum, the 2033 Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 4.000% per annum, the 2036 Notes shall bear interest
at the rate of 4.350% per annum, and the 2056 Notes shall bear interest at the rate of 5.000% per annum.
(e) Interest on the Notes issued on the date hereof shall accrue from June 12, 2026. Interest on the
Notes of each series shall be payable semi-annually in arrears each June 12 and December 12 (each, an “Interest
Payment Date”), beginning on December 12, 2026, to the persons in whose names the Notes of such series are registered at
the close of business on the preceding May 28 and November 27, each a record date, as the case may be, prior to the applicable
Interest Payment Date, except that the Company will pay interest at the applicable Stated Maturity to the person or persons to whom principal
is payable. For a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of
twelve 30-day months. For an interest period that is not a full semi-annual
2
interest period,
interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days in such interest period (Actual/Actual
Canadian Compound Method).
If any
date on which interest is payable on the Notes (other than the applicable Stated Maturity or any earlier date of redemption) is not a
Business Day, the payment of the interest payable on that date will be made on the next day 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. If any Stated
Maturity or earlier date of redemption of the Notes is not a Business Day, the required payment shall be made on the next Business Day
as if it were made on the date the payment was due and no additional interest will accrue on the amount so payable for the period from
and after such Stated Maturity or such date of redemption, as the case may be.
“Business Day” means
any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York, Toronto, Ontario,
Canada, or Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada are authorized or required by law or executive order to close.
(f) The place or places where the principal of and interest on the Notes shall be payable or where they may
be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be 3rd Floor, 510 Burrard Street, Vancouver, BC V6C 3B9, being the Corporate
Trust Office of Computershare Trust Company of Canada, as Paying Agent, Registrar and Transfer Agent for the Notes, or at any other place
as the Company may designate. The place or places 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) Each series of the Notes may be redeemed, in whole at any time or in part from time to time at the Company’s
option (in C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal amount thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination
thereof), prior to the applicable Par Call Date (as defined herein) (or, in the case of the 2029 Notes, prior to the 2029 Stated Maturity)
(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, and (ii) the Canada Yield Price, plus, in either case, accrued
and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but not including, the applicable Make-Whole Redemption Date.
On or after the applicable Par Call
Date, the Company may redeem each series of the Notes (other than the 2029 Notes), in whole at any time or in part from time to time (in
C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal amount thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination thereof),
at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal
3
amount of the Notes being redeemed,
plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date (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 the Paying Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date and certain other conditions are satisfied,
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 additional interest or other payment due to the delay.
“Canada Yield Price” means, in respect
of any Notes being redeemed, the price, in respect of the principal amount of such Notes, calculated by the Company as of the third Business
Day prior to the Redemption Date of such Notes, equal to the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments using a discount
rate equal to the Government of Canada Yield on such Business Day plus (i) 10 basis points for the 2029 Notes, (ii) 12.5 basis
points for the 2031 Notes, (iii) 16 basis points for the 2033 Notes, (iv) 20 basis points for the 2036 Notes, and (v) 27.5
basis points for the 2056 Notes.
“Government of Canada Yield”
means, on any date, the bid-side yield to maturity on such date as determined by the arithmetic average (rounded to three decimal places)
of the yields quoted at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) by any two investment dealers in Canada selected by the Company, assuming semi-annual
compounding and calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice, which a non-callable Government of Canada bond would
carry if issued in CAD in Canada at 100% of its principal amount on such date with a term to maturity that most closely approximates the
remaining term to the applicable Par Call Date (or, in the case of the 2029 Notes, the 2029 Stated Maturity).
“Par
Call Date” means, in the case of the 2031 Notes, May 12, 2031 (the date that is one month prior to the 2031 Stated
Maturity), in the case of the
4
2033 Notes,
April 12, 2033 (the date that is two months prior to the 2033 Stated Maturity), in the case of the 2036 Notes, March 12,
2036 (the date that is three months prior to the 2036 Stated Maturity), and, in the case of the 2056 Notes, December 12, 2055 (the
date that is six months prior to the 2056 Stated Maturity).
“Remaining Scheduled Payments”
means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on each Note that would
be due after the related Redemption Date if the Note were redeemed on the applicable Par Call Date (or, in the case of the 2029 Notes,
the 2029 Stated Maturity). If the Redemption Date is not an interest payment date with respect to a Note, the amount of the next succeeding
scheduled interest payment on each Note will be reduced by the amount of interest accrued on such Note to, but excluding, the Redemption
Date.
The Company’s actions and determinations
in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Notice of any redemption shall be mailed
or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more
than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed.
In the case of a partial redemption,
a selection of the Notes for redemption will be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Paying Agent in its sole discretion
deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of C$1,000 or less will be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed
in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note will state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed.
A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note will be issued in the name of the Holder of the Note upon
surrender for cancellation of the original Note. For so long as the Notes are held by CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (or another
depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the depositary.
Unless the Company defaults in payment
of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes, or portions thereof, called for
redemption.
Notice of any redemption of the Notes
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
5
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 and the Paying Agent 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 Paying Agent 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.
(h) The Company shall, subject to the exceptions and limitations set forth in Section 7 of the form of
Note of each Note, pay as additional interest on the Notes such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net payment by the
Company or a paying agent of the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Notes to a beneficial owner, after withholding
or deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by the United States or a taxing authority
in the United States or any jurisdiction in which the Company (or any successor) is organized or resident for tax purposes (each, a “Tax
Jurisdiction”) shall not be less than the amount provided in the Notes to be then due and payable.
(i) If, as a result of any change in, or amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated
under the laws) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction or any change in, or amendments to, an official position regarding the application, interpretation,
administration, or enforcement thereof (including by virtue of any action taken by a taxing authority, a holding, judgment, or order by
a court of competent jurisdiction (whether or not such action was taken or brought with respect to the Company), or a change in published
administrative practice) that is announced and/or becomes effective on or after June 8, 2026 (or, if the Tax Jurisdiction is not
the United States, after the date such Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax Jurisdiction), based upon a written opinion of independent counsel
selected by the Company, the Company shall become obligated to pay additional amounts pursuant to Section 6(h) with respect
to the Notes of any series, then the Company may at any time at its option redeem, in whole, but not in part, the Notes of such series
on not less than 10 nor more than 90 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued
and unpaid interest, if any (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any additional amounts), on the Notes of such series to be redeemed
to, but not including, the redemption date.
The Company will not give any such notice of redemption of
Notes earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Company would be obligated to pay additional amounts if a payment in
respect of the Notes was then due, and the law giving rise to the obligation to pay additional amounts (whether the obligation to withhold
is then effective or will
6
become effective after the notice) must be in effect at the
time such notice is given.
(j) The Notes shall be issuable in minimum denominations of C$2,000 and in multiples of C$1,000 in excess
thereof.
(k) There is no sinking fund for the Notes.
(l) The Notes shall be issued in the form of one or more Global Securities.
(m) The Depositary shall be CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (“CDS”)
(n) Notes will be issued in fully registered, certificated form, registered in the names of persons other than CDS or its nominee only
if (i) the book-entry only system ceases to exist, (ii) the Company determines that CDS is no longer willing or able to discharge
properly its responsibilities as depositary with respect to the Notes and the Company is unable to locate a qualified successor, (iii) the
Company, at its option, elects to terminate the record book-entry system through CDS, (iv) required by law or (v) an event of
default under the Indenture with respect to the Notes has occurred and is continuing.
If certificated Notes are issued under the limited circumstances
described above, then: (i) registration of transfers or exchanges of certificated Notes may be made by delivery of those certificated
Notes, duly endorsed or accompanied by instruments of transfer duly endorsed, by the registered Holders thereof, at the office of a Registrar
for the Notes, and (ii) the Company will make payments of principal and the redemption price, if any, thereof upon presentation of
the certificated Notes at the office of a Paying Agent for the Notes.
At the Company’s option, payments of interest on certificated
Notes other than Global Securities, if issued, due on any Interest Payment Date (other than on a Stated Maturity or a Redemption Date)
may be made by check mailed to the addresses of the persons entitled thereto as such addresses shall appear in the register of Notes or
by wire transfer to the accounts of the Holders of such certificated Notes if appropriate wire transfer instructions have been received
in writing by the Paying Agent not less than 15 days prior to the applicable interest payment date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Company will make payments of interest on any Interest Payment Date (other than on a Stated Maturity or a Redemption Date) to each registered
Holder of C$10,000,000 or more in aggregate principal amount of certificated Notes by wire transfer if the applicable registered Holder
has delivered appropriate wire transfer instructions in writing to the Paying Agent not less than 15 days prior to the applicable Interest
Payment Date. Any wire transfer instructions
7
received by the Paying Agent shall remain in effect until
revoked by the applicable registered Holder.
(o) The provisions of Section 8.1 of the Base Indenture shall apply to the Notes.
(p) The Notes shall be Unrestricted Securities and shall be registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission
pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
(q) The principal of and interest on the Notes shall be payable only in CAD; provided that if CAD are unavailable
to the Company due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond its control, then all payments in respect of the
Notes shall be made in Dollars until CAD are again available to the Company.
(r) The Notes shall not be convertible into common stock of the Company.
(s) The term “C$” or “CAD” means the lawful currency of Canada.
(t) The terms of the 2029 Notes, the 2031 Notes, the 2033 Notes, the 2036 Notes, and the 2056 Notes shall
include such other terms as set forth in the form of 2029 Note, form of 2031 Note, form of 2033 Note, form of 2036 Note, and form of 2056
Note, respectively, attached hereto as Exhibits A, B, C, D, and E (each, a “form of Note”
and, collectively, the “forms of Notes”).

Officers’ Certificate and any other documents delivered in connection with this transaction shall be valid, binding, and enforceable
against a party only when executed and delivered by an authorized individual on behalf of the party by means of (i) any electronic
signature permitted by the federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, state enactments of the Uniform Electronic
Transactions Act, and/or any other relevant electronic signatures law; (ii) an original manual signature; or (iii) a scanned

(REVERSE OF NOTE)
AMAZON.COM, INC.
3.400% Notes due 2029
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 June 12, 2026. 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 semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning
on December 12, 2026, to the persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the preceding Regular Record
Date.
For a full semi-annual interest period,
interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. For an interest period that
is not a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number
of days in such interest period (Actual/Actual Canadian Compound Method).
Solely for the purposes of disclosure
under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such computation is equivalent during any particular
period is the rate so used (x) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest
or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (y) divided by the number of days based on which such rate is calculated.
If any Interest Payment Date is not a
Business Day, the payment of the interest payable on that date will be made on the next day 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 Interest Payment Date. If the 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 additional interest
will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date
of that payment on the next succeeding Business Day.
All payments on the Notes shall be payable
in CAD; provided that if CAD are unavailable to the Issuer due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond its
control, then all payments in respect of the Notes shall be made in U.S. Dollars until CAD are again available to the Issuer.
The amount payable on any date in CAD
shall be converted into U.S. Dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second
Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion,
on the basis of the most recent U.S. Dollar/CAD exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on or prior to the second Business
Day prior to the relevant payment date. Any payment in respect of the Notes of this series so made in U.S. Dollars shall not constitute
an event of default under the Notes or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation
or conversion in connection with the foregoing.
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.
The term “C$” or “CAD”
means the lawful currency of Canada.
- 5 -
“Business Day” means
any day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York, Toronto, Ontario,
Canada, or Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada are authorized or required by law or executive order to close.
2. Paying
Agent, Registrar, and Transfer Agent.
Initially, Computershare Trust Company
of Canada will act as Paying Agent, Registrar, and Transfer Agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar, or Transfer Agent
without notice to the Holders. Payment of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of this series will be made at the
office or agency maintained for that purpose in Canada (initially the corporate trust office of the Paying Agent).
3. Indenture;
Defined Terms.
This Note is one of the 3.400% Notes
due 2029 (the “Notes”) issued under the Indenture dated as of November 29, 2012 (the “Base Indenture”) by
and between the Issuer and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Prior Trustee”), as amended and supplemented
by the Supplemental Indenture No. 1 dated as of April 13, 2022 by and between the Issuer, the Prior Trustee, as prior trustee,
and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as successor trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with
the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of June 12, 2026 establishing the
terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Base 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 C$2,000 and multiples of C$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.
- 6 -
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 the Stated Maturity (the date of such redemption, the “Redemption Date”)
at its option (in C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal amount thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination
thereof), at a redemption price equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, and (ii) the
Canada Yield Price, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest thereon, if any, to, but not including, the Redemption Date.
The Issuer shall be responsible for calculating
the applicable redemption price.
If money sufficient to pay the redemption
price of and accrued interest on the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited with the Trustee or
the Paying Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date and certain other conditions are satisfied, 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 Issuer will pay the redemption price on the next
Business Day without any additional interest or other payment due to the delay.
“Canada Yield Price”
means, in respect of any Notes being redeemed, the price, in respect of the principal amount of such Notes, calculated by us as of the
third business day prior to the Redemption Date of such Notes, equal to the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments
using a discount rate equal to the Government of Canada Yield on such business day plus 10 basis points.
“Government of Canada Yield”
means, on any date, the bid-side yield to maturity on such date as determined by the arithmetic average (rounded to three decimal places)
of the yields quoted at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) by any two investment dealers in Canada selected by the Issuer, assuming semi-annual
compounding and calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice, which a non-callable Government of Canada bond would
carry if issued in CAD in Canada at 100% of its principal amount on such date with a term to maturity that most closely approximates the
remaining term to the Stated Maturity.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments”
means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on each Note that would
be due after the related Redemption Date if the Note were redeemed on the Stated Maturity. If the Redemption Date is not an interest payment
date with respect to a Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment on each Note will be reduced by the amount of
interest accrued on such Note to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.
The Issuer’s actions and determinations
in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Notice of any redemption shall be mailed
or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more
than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed.
In the case of a partial redemption,
a selection of the Notes for redemption shall be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Paying Agent in its sole discretion
deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of C$1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed
in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note shall state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed.
A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note shall be issued in the name of the holder of the Note upon
surrender for cancellation of the original note.
- 7 -
For so long as the Notes are held by CDS Clearing and Depository
Services Inc. (or another depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the
Depositary.
Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the redemption price,
on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes, or portions thereof, called for redemption.
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 and the Paying Agent 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 Paying Agent 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. Payment of Additional Amounts.
Subject to the exceptions and limitations
set forth below, the Issuer shall pay as additional interest on the Notes such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net
payment by the Issuer or a paying agent of the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Notes to a beneficial owner,
after withholding or deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by the United States or
a taxing authority in the United States or any jurisdiction in which the Company (or any successor) is organized or resident for tax purposes
(each, a “Tax Jurisdiction”) shall not be less than the amount provided in the Notes to be then due and payable;
provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay additional amounts will not apply:
(i) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed by reason of the Holder (or the beneficial owner for whose benefit
such Holder holds such Note) or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, or shareholder of the Holder, or a person holding a power over
an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder, being treated as:
a. being or having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, being treated as having been
present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, or having or having had a permanent establishment in
the United States;
b. having a current or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction (other than a connection arising solely as a result of the
ownership of the Notes, the receipt of any payment in respect of the Notes, or the enforcement of any rights under the indenture), including
being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States or treated as being or having been a resident thereof;
c. being or having been a personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company, or a controlled foreign corporation for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, a foreign tax exempt organization, or a corporation that has accumulated earnings to avoid United States
federal income tax;
d. being or having been a “10-percent shareholder”, as defined in section 871(h)(3) of the Code, or any successor provision,
of us; or
e. being or having been a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary
course of its trade or business, within the meaning of section 881(c)(3) of the Code or any successor provision;
- 8 -
(ii) to any Holder that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Notes, or a portion of the Notes, or that is a fiduciary, partnership,
or limited liability company, but only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner,
or member of the partnership or limited liability company would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the
beneficiary, settlor, beneficial owner, or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;
(iii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure of the holder, beneficial
owner, or any other person to comply with certification, identification, or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality,
residence, identity, or connection with the United States of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes, if compliance is required by
statute, by regulation of the United States or any taxing authority therein or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United
States is a party as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment, or other governmental charge (including, for the avoidance
of doubt, any backup withholding tax imposed pursuant to Section 3406 of the Code (or any amended or successor provision) (relating
to backup withholding tax));
(iv) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed otherwise than by withholding by the Issuer or a paying agent
from the payment;
(v) to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth, capital gains, or personal property tax or similar tax, assessment,
or other governmental charge;
(vi) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the presentation by the holder of any
Note, where presentation is required, for payment on a date more than 10 days after the date on which payment became due and payable or
the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;
(vii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge required to be withheld or deducted that is imposed on a payment pursuant to
Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor version of such Sections that is substantively comparable and not
materially more onerous to comply with), any U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, or any other official interpretations thereof
(collectively, “FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith,
or any law, regulation, or other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in
respect of FATCA;

8. Redemption
for Tax Reasons
If, as a result of any change in, or
amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated under the laws) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction or any change in, or
amendments to, an official position regarding the application, interpretation, administration, or enforcement thereof (including by virtue
of any action taken by a taxing authority, a holding, judgment, or order by a court of competent jurisdiction (whether or not such action
was taken or brought with respect to the Issuer), or a change in published administrative practice) that is announced and/or becomes effective
on or after June 8, 2026 (or, if the Tax Jurisdiction is not the United States, after the date such Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax
Jurisdiction), based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by the Issuer, the Issuer shall become obligated to pay additional
amounts pursuant to Section 7, then the Issuer may at any time at its option redeem, in whole, but not in part, the Notes on not
less than 10 nor more than 90 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any additional amounts), on the Notes to be redeemed to, but not including,
the redemption date.
The Issuer will not give any such notice
of redemption of Notes earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay additional amounts
if a payment in respect of the Notes was then due, and the law giving rise to the obligation to pay additional amounts (whether the obligation
to withhold is then effective or will become effective after the notice) must be in effect at the time such notice is given.
9. 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 Base 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 Base 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.
10. Authentication.
This Note shall not be valid until the
Trustee or an authenticating agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.
11. 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).
12. CUSIP

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated
by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes as a convenience
to the Holders of the Notes. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as printed on the Notes and reliance may
be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

(REVERSE OF NOTE)
AMAZON.COM, INC.
3.700% 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 June 12, 2026. 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 semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning
on December 12, 2026, to the persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the preceding Regular Record
Date.
For a full semi-annual interest period,
interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. For an interest period that
is not a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number
of days in such interest period (Actual/Actual Canadian Compound Method).
Solely for the purposes of disclosure
under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such computation is equivalent during any particular
period is the rate so used (x) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest
or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (y) divided by the number of days based on which such rate is calculated.
If any Interest Payment Date is not a
Business Day, the payment of the interest payable on that date will be made on the next day 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 Interest Payment Date. If the 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 additional interest
will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date
of that payment on the next succeeding Business Day.
All payments on the Notes shall be payable
in CAD; provided that if CAD are unavailable to the Issuer due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond its
control, then all payments in respect of the Notes shall be made in U.S. Dollars until CAD are again available to the Issuer.
The amount payable on any date in CAD
shall be converted into U.S. Dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second
Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion,
on the basis of the most recent U.S. Dollar/CAD exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on or prior to the second Business
Day prior to the relevant payment date. Any payment in respect of the Notes of this series so made in U.S. Dollars shall not constitute
an event of default under the Notes or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation
or conversion in connection with the foregoing.
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.
The term “C$” or “CAD”
means the lawful currency of Canada.
- 5 -
“Business Day” means any
day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York, Toronto, Ontario, Canada,
or Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada are authorized or required by law or executive order to close.
2. Paying
Agent, Registrar, and Transfer Agent.
Initially, Computershare Trust Company
of Canada will act as Paying Agent, Registrar, and Transfer Agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar, or Transfer Agent
without notice to the Holders. Payment of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of this series will be made at the
office or agency maintained for that purpose in Canada (initially the corporate trust office of the Paying Agent).
3. Indenture;
Defined Terms.
This Note is one of the 3.700% Notes
due 2031 (the “Notes”) issued under the Indenture dated as of November 29, 2012 (the “Base Indenture”) by
and between the Issuer and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Prior Trustee”), as amended and supplemented
by the Supplemental Indenture No. 1 dated as of April 13, 2022 by and between the Issuer, the Prior Trustee, as prior trustee,
and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as successor trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with
the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of June 12, 2026 establishing the
terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Base 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 C$2,000 and multiples of C$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.
- 6 -
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 May 12, 2031 (the “Par Call Date”) (the date of such redemption,
the “Make-Whole Redemption Date”) at its option (in C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal amount
thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination thereof), at a redemption price equal to the greater of: (i) 100% of
the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, and (ii) the Canada Yield Price, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, if any, to, but not including, the Make-Whole Redemption Date.
On or after the Par Call Date, the Issuer
may redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time (in C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal
amount thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination thereof), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount
of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date (such date, and any Make-Whole
Redemption Date, a “Redemption Date”).
The Issuer shall be responsible for calculating
the applicable redemption price.
If money sufficient to pay the redemption
price of and accrued interest on the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited with the Trustee or
the Paying Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date and certain other conditions are satisfied, 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 Issuer will pay the redemption price on the next
Business Day without any additional interest or other payment due to the delay.
“Canada Yield Price”
means, in respect of any Notes being redeemed, the price, in respect of the principal amount of such Notes, calculated by us as of the
third business day prior to the Redemption Date of such Notes, equal to the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments
using a discount rate equal to the Government of Canada Yield on such business day plus 12.5 basis points.
“Government of Canada Yield”
means, on any date, the bid-side yield to maturity on such date as determined by the arithmetic average (rounded to three decimal places)
of the yields quoted at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) by any two investment dealers in Canada selected by the Issuer, assuming semi-annual
compounding and calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice, which a non-callable Government of Canada bond would
carry if issued in CAD in Canada at 100% of its principal amount on such date with a term to maturity that most closely approximates the
remaining term to the Par Call Date.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments”
means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on each Note that would
be due after the related Redemption Date if the Note were redeemed on the Par Call Date. If the Redemption Date is not an interest payment
date with respect to a Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment on each Note will be reduced by the amount of
interest accrued on such Note to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.
The Issuer’s actions and determinations
in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Notice of any redemption shall be mailed
or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more
than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed.
- 7 -
In the case of a partial redemption,
a selection of the Notes for redemption shall be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Paying Agent in its sole discretion
deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of C$1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed
in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note shall state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed.
A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note shall be issued in the name of the holder of the Note upon
surrender for cancellation of the original note. For so long as the Notes are held by CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (or another
depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.
Unless the Issuer defaults in payment
of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes, or portions thereof, called for
redemption.
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 and the Paying Agent 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 Paying Agent 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. Payment of Additional Amounts.
Subject to the exceptions and limitations
set forth below, the Issuer shall pay as additional interest on the Notes such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net
payment by the Issuer or a paying agent of the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Notes to a beneficial owner,
after withholding or deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by the United States or
a taxing authority in the United States or any jurisdiction in which the Company (or any successor) is organized or resident for tax purposes
(each, a “Tax Jurisdiction”) shall not be less than the amount provided in the Notes to be then due and payable;
provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay additional amounts will not apply:
(i) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed by reason of the Holder (or the beneficial owner for whose benefit
such Holder holds such Note) or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, or shareholder of the Holder, or a person holding a power over
an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder, being treated as:
a. being or having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, being treated as having been
present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, or having or having had a permanent establishment in
the United States;
b. having a current or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction (other than a connection arising solely as a result of the
ownership of the Notes, the receipt of any payment in respect of the Notes, or the enforcement of any rights under the indenture), including
being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States or treated as being or having been a resident thereof;
c. being or having been a personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company, or a controlled foreign corporation for U.S.

of us; or
e. being or having been a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary
course of its trade or business, within the meaning of section 881(c)(3) of the Code or any successor provision;
(ii) to any Holder that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Notes, or a portion of the Notes, or that is a fiduciary, partnership,
or limited liability company, but only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner,
or member of the partnership or limited liability company would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the
beneficiary, settlor, beneficial owner, or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;
(iii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure of the holder, beneficial
owner, or any other person to comply with certification, identification, or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality,
residence, identity, or connection with the United States of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes, if compliance is required by
statute, by regulation of the United States or any taxing authority therein or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United
States is a party as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment, or other governmental charge (including, for the avoidance
of doubt, any backup withholding tax imposed pursuant to Section 3406 of the Code (or any amended or successor provision) (relating
to backup withholding tax));
(iv) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed otherwise than by withholding by the Issuer or a paying agent
from the payment;
(v) to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth, capital gains, or personal property tax or similar tax, assessment,
or other governmental charge;
(vi) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the presentation by the holder of any
Note, where presentation is required, for payment on a date more than 10 days after the date on which payment became due and payable or
the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;
(vii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge required to be withheld or deducted that is imposed on a payment pursuant to
Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor version of such Sections that is substantively comparable and not
materially more onerous to comply with), any U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, or any other official interpretations thereof
(collectively, “FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith,
or any law, regulation, or other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in
respect of FATCA;
(viii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of a change in law, regulation,
or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided
for, whichever occurs later;
(ix) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by reason of the failure of the beneficial owner to fulfill the statement
requirements of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code;
(x) to any tax imposed pursuant to Section 871(h)(6) or 881(c)(6) of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions);
or
(xi) to any tax imposed as a result of any combination of items (i) through (x).
- 9 -
Except as specifically provided above,
the Issuer shall not be required to pay additional amounts in respect of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge. References
in this Note to any payment on the Notes shall include the related payment of additional amounts, as applicable.
As used herein, the term “United
States” means the United States of America, any state thereof, and the District of Columbia.
8. Redemption
for Tax Reasons
If, as a result of any change in, or
amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated under the laws) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction or any change in, or
amendments to, an official position regarding the application, interpretation, administration, or enforcement thereof (including by virtue
of any action taken by a taxing authority, a holding, judgment, or order by a court of competent jurisdiction (whether or not such action
was taken or brought with respect to the Issuer), or a change in published administrative practice) that is announced and/or becomes effective
on or after June 8, 2026 (or, if the Tax Jurisdiction is not the United States, after the date such Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax
Jurisdiction), based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by the Issuer, the Issuer shall become obligated to pay additional
amounts pursuant to Section 7, then the Issuer may at any time at its option redeem, in whole, but not in part, the Notes on not
less than 10 nor more than 90 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any additional amounts), on the Notes to be redeemed to, but not including,
the redemption date.
The Issuer will not give any such notice
of redemption of Notes earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay additional amounts
if a payment in respect of the Notes was then due, and the law giving rise to the obligation to pay additional amounts (whether the obligation
to withhold is then effective or will become effective after the notice) must be in effect at the time such notice is given.
9. 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 Base 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 Base 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.
10. Authentication.
This Note shall not be valid until the
Trustee or an authenticating agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.
11. 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).
- 10 -

by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes as a convenience
to the Holders of the Notes. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as printed on the Notes and reliance may
be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.

CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICATION
This is one of the Notes of the series designated
therein described in the within-mentioned Indenture.
Dated: June 12, 2026.
COMPUTERSHARE TRUST COMPANY OF CANADA,
as Registrar and Authentication Agent
By:
Authorized Signatory

(REVERSE OF NOTE)
AMAZON.COM, INC.
4.000% Notes due 2033
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 June 12, 2026. 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 semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning
on December 12, 2026, to the persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the preceding Regular Record
Date.
For a full semi-annual interest period,
interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. For an interest period that
is not a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number
of days in such interest period (Actual/Actual Canadian Compound Method).
Solely for the purposes of disclosure
under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such computation is equivalent during any particular
period is the rate so used (x) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest
or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (y) divided by the number of days based on which such rate is calculated.
If any Interest Payment Date is not a
Business Day, the payment of the interest payable on that date will be made on the next day 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 Interest Payment Date. If the 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 additional interest
will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date
of that payment on the next succeeding Business Day.
All payments on the Notes shall be payable
in CAD; provided that if CAD are unavailable to the Issuer due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond its
control, then all payments in respect of the Notes shall be made in U.S. Dollars until CAD are again available to the Issuer.
The amount payable on any date in CAD
shall be converted into U.S. Dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second
Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion,
on the basis of the most recent U.S. Dollar/CAD exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on or prior to the second Business
Day prior to the relevant payment date. Any payment in respect of the Notes of this series so made in U.S. Dollars shall not constitute
an event of default under the Notes or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation
or conversion in connection with the foregoing.
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.
The term “C$” or “CAD”
means the lawful currency of Canada.
- 5 -
“Business Day” means any
day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York, Toronto, Ontario, Canada,
or Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada are authorized or required by law or executive order to close.
2. Paying
Agent, Registrar, and Transfer Agent.
Initially, Computershare Trust Company
of Canada will act as Paying Agent, Registrar, and Transfer Agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar, or Transfer Agent
without notice to the Holders. Payment of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of this series will be made at the
office or agency maintained for that purpose in Canada (initially the corporate trust office of the Paying Agent).
3. Indenture;
Defined Terms.
This Note is one of the 4.000% Notes
due 2033 (the “Notes”) issued under the Indenture dated as of November 29, 2012 (the “Base Indenture”) by
and between the Issuer and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Prior Trustee”), as amended and supplemented
by the Supplemental Indenture No. 1 dated as of April 13, 2022 by and between the Issuer, the Prior Trustee, as prior trustee,
and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as successor trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with
the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of June 12, 2026 establishing the
terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Base 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 C$2,000 and multiples of C$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.
- 6 -
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, 2033 (the “Par Call Date”) (the date of such
redemption, the “Make-Whole Redemption Date”) at its option (in C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal
amount thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination thereof), at a redemption price equal to the greater of: (i) 100%
of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, and (ii) the Canada Yield Price, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, if any, to, but not including, the Make-Whole Redemption Date.
On or after the Par Call Date, the Issuer
may redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time (in C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal
amount thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination thereof), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount
of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date (such date, and any Make-Whole
Redemption Date, a “Redemption Date”).
The Issuer shall be responsible for calculating
the applicable redemption price.
If money sufficient to pay the redemption
price of and accrued interest on the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited with the Trustee or
the Paying Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date and certain other conditions are satisfied, 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 Issuer will pay the redemption price on the next
Business Day without any additional interest or other payment due to the delay.
“Canada Yield Price”
means, in respect of any Notes being redeemed, the price, in respect of the principal amount of such Notes, calculated by us as of the
third business day prior to the Redemption Date of such Notes, equal to the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments
using a discount rate equal to the Government of Canada Yield on such business day plus 16 basis points.
“Government of Canada Yield”
means, on any date, the bid-side yield to maturity on such date as determined by the arithmetic average (rounded to three decimal places)
of the yields quoted at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) by any two investment dealers in Canada selected by the Issuer, assuming semi-annual
compounding and calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice, which a non-callable Government of Canada bond would
carry if issued in CAD in Canada at 100% of its principal amount on such date with a term to maturity that most closely approximates the
remaining term to the Par Call Date.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments”
means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on each Note that would
be due after the related Redemption Date if the Note were redeemed on the Par Call Date. If the Redemption Date is not an interest payment
date with respect to a Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment on each Note will be reduced by the amount of
interest accrued on such Note to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.
The Issuer’s actions and determinations
in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Notice of any redemption shall be mailed
or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more
than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed.
- 7 -
In the case of a partial redemption,
a selection of the Notes for redemption shall be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Paying Agent in its sole discretion
deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of C$1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed
in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note shall state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed.
A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note shall be issued in the name of the holder of the Note upon
surrender for cancellation of the original note. For so long as the Notes are held by CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (or another
depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.
Unless the Issuer defaults in payment
of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes, or portions thereof, called for
redemption.
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 and the Paying Agent 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 Paying Agent 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. Payment of Additional Amounts.
Subject to the exceptions and limitations
set forth below, the Issuer shall pay as additional interest on the Notes such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net
payment by the Issuer or a paying agent of the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Notes to a beneficial owner,
after withholding or deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by the United States or
a taxing authority in the United States or any jurisdiction in which the Company (or any successor) is organized or resident for tax purposes
(each, a “Tax Jurisdiction”) shall not be less than the amount provided in the Notes to be then due and payable;
provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay additional amounts will not apply:
(i) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed by reason of the Holder (or the beneficial owner for whose benefit
such Holder holds such Note) or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, or shareholder of the Holder, or a person holding a power over
an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder, being treated as:
a. being or having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, being treated as having been
present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, or having or having had a permanent establishment in
the United States;
b. having a current or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction (other than a connection arising solely as a result of the
ownership of the Notes, the receipt of any payment in respect of the Notes, or the enforcement of any rights under the indenture), including
being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States or treated as being or having been a resident thereof;
c. being or having been a personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company, or a controlled foreign corporation for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, a foreign tax exempt organization, or a corporation that has accumulated earnings to avoid United States
federal income tax;
- 8 -
d. being or having been a “10-percent shareholder”, as defined in section 871(h)(3) of the Code, or any successor provision,
of us; or
e. being or having been a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary
course of its trade or business, within the meaning of section 881(c)(3) of the Code or any successor provision;
(ii) to any Holder that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Notes, or a portion of the Notes, or that is a fiduciary, partnership,
or limited liability company, but only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner,
or member of the partnership or limited liability company would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the
beneficiary, settlor, beneficial owner, or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;
(iii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure of the holder, beneficial
owner, or any other person to comply with certification, identification, or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality,
residence, identity, or connection with the United States of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes, if compliance is required by
statute, by regulation of the United States or any taxing authority therein or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United
States is a party as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment, or other governmental charge (including, for the avoidance
of doubt, any backup withholding tax imposed pursuant to Section 3406 of the Code (or any amended or successor provision) (relating
to backup withholding tax));
(iv) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed otherwise than by withholding by the Issuer or a paying agent
from the payment;
(v) to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth, capital gains, or personal property tax or similar tax, assessment,
or other governmental charge;
(vi) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the presentation by the holder of any
Note, where presentation is required, for payment on a date more than 10 days after the date on which payment became due and payable or
the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;
(vii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge required to be withheld or deducted that is imposed on a payment pursuant to
Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor version of such Sections that is substantively comparable and not
materially more onerous to comply with), any U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, or any other official interpretations thereof
(collectively, “FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith,
or any law, regulation, or other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in
respect of FATCA;
(viii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of a change in law, regulation,
or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided
for, whichever occurs later;
(ix) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by reason of the failure of the beneficial owner to fulfill the statement
requirements of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code;
(x) to any tax imposed pursuant to Section 871(h)(6) or 881(c)(6) of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions);
or
(xi) to any tax imposed as a result of any combination of items (i) through (x).
- 9 -
Except as specifically provided above,
the Issuer shall not be required to pay additional amounts in respect of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge. References
in this Note to any payment on the Notes shall include the related payment of additional amounts, as applicable.
As used herein, the term “United
States” means the United States of America, any state thereof, and the District of Columbia.
8. Redemption
for Tax Reasons
If, as a result of any change in, or
amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated under the laws) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction or any change in, or
amendments to, an official position regarding the application, interpretation, administration, or enforcement thereof (including by virtue
of any action taken by a taxing authority, a holding, judgment, or order by a court of competent jurisdiction (whether or not such action
was taken or brought with respect to the Issuer), or a change in published administrative practice) that is announced and/or becomes effective
on or after June 8, 2026 (or, if the Tax Jurisdiction is not the United States, after the date such Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax
Jurisdiction), based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by the Issuer, the Issuer shall become obligated to pay additional
amounts pursuant to Section 7, then the Issuer may at any time at its option redeem, in whole, but not in part, the Notes on not
less than 10 nor more than 90 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any additional amounts), on the Notes to be redeemed to, but not including,
the redemption date.
The Issuer will not give any such notice
of redemption of Notes earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay additional amounts
if a payment in respect of the Notes was then due, and the law giving rise to the obligation to pay additional amounts (whether the obligation
to withhold is then effective or will become effective after the notice) must be in effect at the time such notice is given.
9. 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 Base 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 Base 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.
10. Authentication.
This Note shall not be valid until the
Trustee or an authenticating agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.
11. 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).
- 10 -

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 June 12, 2026. 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 semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning
on December 12, 2026, to the persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the preceding Regular Record
Date.
For a full semi-annual interest period,
interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. For an interest period that
is not a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number
of days in such interest period (Actual/Actual Canadian Compound Method).
Solely for the purposes of disclosure
under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such computation is equivalent during any particular
period is the rate so used (x) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest
or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (y) divided by the number of days based on which such rate is calculated.
If any Interest Payment Date is not a
Business Day, the payment of the interest payable on that date will be made on the next day 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 Interest Payment Date. If the 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 additional interest
will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date
of that payment on the next succeeding Business Day.
All payments on the Notes shall be payable
in CAD; provided that if CAD are unavailable to the Issuer due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond its
control, then all payments in respect of the Notes shall be made in U.S. Dollars until CAD are again available to the Issuer.
The amount payable on any date in CAD
shall be converted into U.S. Dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second
Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion,
on the basis of the most recent U.S. Dollar/CAD exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on or prior to the second Business
Day prior to the relevant payment date. Any payment in respect of the Notes of this series so made in U.S. Dollars shall not constitute
an event of default under the Notes or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation
or conversion in connection with the foregoing.
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.
The term “C$” or “CAD”
means the lawful currency of Canada.
- 5 -
“Business Day” means any
day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York, Toronto, Ontario, Canada,
or Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada are authorized or required by law or executive order to close.
2. Paying
Agent, Registrar, and Transfer Agent.
Initially, Computershare Trust Company
of Canada will act as Paying Agent, Registrar, and Transfer Agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar, or Transfer Agent
without notice to the Holders. Payment of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of this series will be made at the
office or agency maintained for that purpose in Canada (initially the corporate trust office of the Paying Agent).
3. Indenture;
Defined Terms.
This Note is one of the 4.350% Notes
due 2036 (the “Notes”) issued under the Indenture dated as of November 29, 2012 (the “Base Indenture”) by
and between the Issuer and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as trustee (the “Prior Trustee”), as amended and supplemented
by the Supplemental Indenture No. 1 dated as of April 13, 2022 by and between the Issuer, the Prior Trustee, as prior trustee,
and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as successor trustee (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with
the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of June 12, 2026 establishing the
terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Base 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 C$2,000 and multiples of C$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.
- 6 -
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, 2036 (the “Par Call Date”) (the date of such
redemption, the “Make-Whole Redemption Date”) at its option (in C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal
amount thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination thereof), at a redemption price equal to the greater of: (i) 100%
of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, and (ii) the Canada Yield Price, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, if any, to, but not including, the Make-Whole Redemption Date.
On or after the Par Call Date, the Issuer
may redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time (in C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal
amount thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination thereof), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount
of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date (such date, and any Make-Whole
Redemption Date, a “Redemption Date”).
The Issuer shall be responsible for calculating
the applicable redemption price.
If money sufficient to pay the redemption
price of and accrued interest on the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited with the Trustee or
the Paying Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date and certain other conditions are satisfied, 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 Issuer will pay the redemption price on the next
Business Day without any additional interest or other payment due to the delay.
“Canada Yield Price”
means, in respect of any Notes being redeemed, the price, in respect of the principal amount of such Notes, calculated by us as of the
third business day prior to the Redemption Date of such Notes, equal to the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments
using a discount rate equal to the Government of Canada Yield on such business day plus 20 basis points.
“Government of Canada Yield”
means, on any date, the bid-side yield to maturity on such date as determined by the arithmetic average (rounded to three decimal places)
of the yields quoted at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) by any two investment dealers in Canada selected by the Issuer, assuming semi-annual
compounding and calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice, which a non-callable Government of Canada bond would
carry if issued in CAD in Canada at 100% of its principal amount on such date with a term to maturity that most closely approximates the
remaining term to the Par Call Date.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments”
means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on each Note that would
be due after the related Redemption Date if the Note were redeemed on the Par Call Date. If the Redemption Date is not an interest payment
date with respect to a Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment on each Note will be reduced by the amount of
interest accrued on such Note to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.
The Issuer’s actions and determinations
in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Notice of any redemption shall be mailed
or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more
than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed.
- 7 -
In the case of a partial redemption,
a selection of the Notes for redemption shall be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Paying Agent in its sole discretion
deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of C$1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed
in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note shall state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed.
A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note shall be issued in the name of the holder of the Note upon
surrender for cancellation of the original note. For so long as the Notes are held by CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (or another
depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.
Unless the Issuer defaults in payment
of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes, or portions thereof, called for
redemption.
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 and the Paying Agent 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 Paying Agent 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. Payment of Additional Amounts.
Subject to the exceptions and limitations
set forth below, the Issuer shall pay as additional interest on the Notes such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net
payment by the Issuer or a paying agent of the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Notes to a beneficial owner,
after withholding or deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by the United States or
a taxing authority in the United States or any jurisdiction in which the Company (or any successor) is organized or resident for tax purposes
(each, a “Tax Jurisdiction”) shall not be less than the amount provided in the Notes to be then due and payable;
provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay additional amounts will not apply:
(i) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed by reason of the Holder (or the beneficial owner for whose benefit
such Holder holds such Note) or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, or shareholder of the Holder, or a person holding a power over
an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder, being treated as:
a. being or having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, being treated as having been
present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, or having or having had a permanent establishment in
the United States;
b. having a current or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction (other than a connection arising solely as a result of the
ownership of the Notes, the receipt of any payment in respect of the Notes, or the enforcement of any rights under the indenture), including
being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States or treated as being or having been a resident thereof;
c. being or having been a personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company, or a controlled foreign corporation for U.S.

federal income tax;
- 8 -
d. being or having been a “10-percent shareholder”, as defined in section 871(h)(3) of the Code, or any successor provision,
of us; or
e. being or having been a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary
course of its trade or business, within the meaning of section 881(c)(3) of the Code or any successor provision;
(ii) to any Holder that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Notes, or a portion of the Notes, or that is a fiduciary, partnership,
or limited liability company, but only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner,
or member of the partnership or limited liability company would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the
beneficiary, settlor, beneficial owner, or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;
(iii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure of the holder, beneficial
owner, or any other person to comply with certification, identification, or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality,
residence, identity, or connection with the United States of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes, if compliance is required by
statute, by regulation of the United States or any taxing authority therein or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United
States is a party as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment, or other governmental charge (including, for the avoidance
of doubt, any backup withholding tax imposed pursuant to Section 3406 of the Code (or any amended or successor provision) (relating
to backup withholding tax));
(iv) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed otherwise than by withholding by the Issuer or a paying agent
from the payment;
(v) to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth, capital gains, or personal property tax or similar tax, assessment,
or other governmental charge;
(vi) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the presentation by the holder of any
Note, where presentation is required, for payment on a date more than 10 days after the date on which payment became due and payable or
the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;
(vii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge required to be withheld or deducted that is imposed on a payment pursuant to
Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor version of such Sections that is substantively comparable and not
materially more onerous to comply with), any U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, or any other official interpretations thereof
(collectively, “FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith,
or any law, regulation, or other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in
respect of FATCA;
(viii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of a change in law, regulation,
or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided
for, whichever occurs later;
(ix) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by reason of the failure of the beneficial owner to fulfill the statement
requirements of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code;
(x) to any tax imposed pursuant to Section 871(h)(6) or 881(c)(6) of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions);
or
(xi) to any tax imposed as a result of any combination of items (i) through (x).
- 9 -
Except as specifically provided above,
the Issuer shall not be required to pay additional amounts in respect of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge. References
in this Note to any payment on the Notes shall include the related payment of additional amounts, as applicable.
As used herein, the term “United
States” means the United States of America, any state thereof, and the District of Columbia.
8. Redemption
for Tax Reasons
If, as a result of any change in, or
amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated under the laws) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction or any change in, or
amendments to, an official position regarding the application, interpretation, administration, or enforcement thereof (including by virtue
of any action taken by a taxing authority, a holding, judgment, or order by a court of competent jurisdiction (whether or not such action
was taken or brought with respect to the Issuer), or a change in published administrative practice) that is announced and/or becomes effective
on or after June 8, 2026 (or, if the Tax Jurisdiction is not the United States, after the date such Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax
Jurisdiction), based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by the Issuer, the Issuer shall become obligated to pay additional
amounts pursuant to Section 7, then the Issuer may at any time at its option redeem, in whole, but not in part, the Notes on not
less than 10 nor more than 90 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any additional amounts), on the Notes to be redeemed to, but not including,
the redemption date.
The Issuer will not give any such notice
of redemption of Notes earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay additional amounts
if a payment in respect of the Notes was then due, and the law giving rise to the obligation to pay additional amounts (whether the obligation
to withhold is then effective or will become effective after the notice) must be in effect at the time such notice is given.
9. 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 Base 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 Base 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.
10. Authentication.
This Note shall not be valid until the
Trustee or an authenticating agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.

AMAZON.COM, INC.
5.000% Notes due 2056
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 June 12, 2026. 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 semi-annually in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, beginning
on December 12, 2026, to the persons in whose names the Notes are registered at the close of business on the preceding Regular Record
Date.
For a full semi-annual interest period,
interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. For an interest period that
is not a full semi-annual interest period, interest on the Notes will be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number
of days in such interest period (Actual/Actual Canadian Compound Method).
Solely for the purposes of disclosure
under the Interest Act (Canada), the yearly rate of interest to which the rate used in such computation is equivalent during any particular
period is the rate so used (x) multiplied by the actual number of days in the calendar year in which the period for which such interest
or fee is payable (or compounded) ends, and (y) divided by the number of days based on which such rate is calculated.
If any Interest Payment Date is not a
Business Day, the payment of the interest payable on that date will be made on the next day 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 Interest Payment Date. If the 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 additional interest
will accrue on that payment for the period from and after that Stated Maturity or other payment date, as the case may be, to the date
of that payment on the next succeeding Business Day.
All payments on the Notes shall be payable
in CAD; provided that if CAD are unavailable to the Issuer due to the imposition of exchange controls or other circumstances beyond its
control, then all payments in respect of the Notes shall be made in U.S. Dollars until CAD are again available to the Issuer.
The amount payable on any date in CAD
shall be converted into U.S. Dollars at the rate mandated by the U.S. Federal Reserve Board as of the close of business on the second
Business Day prior to the relevant payment date or, in the event the U.S. Federal Reserve Board has not mandated a rate of conversion,
on the basis of the most recent U.S. Dollar/CAD exchange rate published in The Wall Street Journal on or prior to the second Business
Day prior to the relevant payment date. Any payment in respect of the Notes of this series so made in U.S. Dollars shall not constitute
an event of default under the Notes or the Indenture. Neither the Trustee nor the Paying Agent shall have any responsibility for any calculation
or conversion in connection with the foregoing.
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.
The term “C$” or “CAD”
means the lawful currency of Canada.
- 5 -
“Business Day” means any
day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, which is not a day on which banking institutions in the City of New York, Toronto, Ontario, Canada,
or Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada are authorized or required by law or executive order to close.
2. Paying
Agent, Registrar, and Transfer Agent.
Initially, Computershare Trust Company
of Canada will act as Paying Agent, Registrar, and Transfer Agent. The Issuer may change any Paying Agent, Registrar, or Transfer Agent
without notice to the Holders. Payment of the principal, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes of this series will be made at the
office or agency maintained for that purpose in Canada (initially the corporate trust office of the Paying Agent).
3. Indenture;
Defined Terms.
This Note is one of the 5.000% Notes
due 2056 (the “Notes”) issued under the Indenture dated as of November 29, 2012 (the “Base Indenture”) by

by the Supplemental Indenture No. 1 dated as of April 13, 2022 by and between the Issuer, the Prior Trustee, as prior trustee,

the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), and the Officers’ Certificate dated as of June 12, 2026 establishing the
terms of the Notes pursuant to Section 2.2 of the Base 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 C$2,000 and multiples of C$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.
- 6 -
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 December 12, 2055 (the “Par Call Date”) (the date of such
redemption, the “Make-Whole Redemption Date”) at its option (in C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal
amount thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination thereof), at a redemption price equal to the greater of: (i) 100%
of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, and (ii) the Canada Yield Price, plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, if any, to, but not including, the Make-Whole Redemption Date.
On or after the Par Call Date, the Issuer
may redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time (in C$1,000 increments, provided that any remaining principal
amount thereof shall be at least the minimum authorized denomination thereof), at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount
of the Notes being redeemed plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon to, but not including, the redemption date (such date, and any Make-Whole
Redemption Date, a “Redemption Date”).
The Issuer shall be responsible for calculating
the applicable redemption price.
If money sufficient to pay the redemption
price of and accrued interest on the Notes (or portions thereof) to be redeemed on the Redemption Date is deposited with the Trustee or
the Paying Agent on or before 11:00 a.m. New York City time on the Redemption Date and certain other conditions are satisfied, 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 Issuer will pay the redemption price on the next
Business Day without any additional interest or other payment due to the delay.
“Canada Yield Price”
means, in respect of any Notes being redeemed, the price, in respect of the principal amount of such Notes, calculated by us as of the
third business day prior to the Redemption Date of such Notes, equal to the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments
using a discount rate equal to the Government of Canada Yield on such business day plus 27.5 basis points.
“Government of Canada Yield”
means, on any date, the bid-side yield to maturity on such date as determined by the arithmetic average (rounded to three decimal places)
of the yields quoted at 10:00 a.m. (Toronto time) by any two investment dealers in Canada selected by the Issuer, assuming semi-annual
compounding and calculated in accordance with generally accepted financial practice, which a non-callable Government of Canada bond would
carry if issued in CAD in Canada at 100% of its principal amount on such date with a term to maturity that most closely approximates the
remaining term to the Par Call Date.
“Remaining Scheduled Payments”
means, with respect to each Note to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and interest on each Note that would
be due after the related Redemption Date if the Note were redeemed on the Par Call Date. If the Redemption Date is not an interest payment
date with respect to a Note, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment on each Note will be reduced by the amount of
interest accrued on such Note to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.
The Issuer’s actions and determinations
in determining the redemption price shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
Notice of any redemption shall be mailed
or electronically delivered (or otherwise transmitted in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures) at least 10 days but not more
than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each holder of Notes to be redeemed.
- 7 -
In the case of a partial redemption,
a selection of the Notes for redemption shall be made pro rata, by lot or by such other method as the Paying Agent in its sole discretion
deems appropriate and fair. No Notes of a principal amount of C$1,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. If any Note is to be redeemed
in part only, the notice of redemption that relates to the Note shall state the portion of the principal amount of the Note to be redeemed.
A new Note in a principal amount equal to the unredeemed portion of the Note shall be issued in the name of the holder of the Note upon
surrender for cancellation of the original note. For so long as the Notes are held by CDS Clearing and Depository Services Inc. (or another
depositary), the redemption of the Notes shall be done in accordance with the policies and procedures of the Depositary.
Unless the Issuer defaults in payment
of the redemption price, on and after the Redemption Date interest will cease to accrue on the Notes, or portions thereof, called for
redemption.
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 and the Paying Agent 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 Paying Agent 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. Payment of Additional Amounts.
Subject to the exceptions and limitations
set forth below, the Issuer shall pay as additional interest on the Notes such additional amounts as are necessary in order that the net
payment by the Issuer or a paying agent of the principal, premium, if any, and interest with respect to the Notes to a beneficial owner,
after withholding or deduction for any present or future tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by the United States or
a taxing authority in the United States or any jurisdiction in which the Company (or any successor) is organized or resident for tax purposes
(each, a “Tax Jurisdiction”) shall not be less than the amount provided in the Notes to be then due and payable;
provided, however, that the foregoing obligation to pay additional amounts will not apply:
(i) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed by reason of the Holder (or the beneficial owner for whose benefit
such Holder holds such Note) or a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, member, or shareholder of the Holder, or a person holding a power over
an estate or trust administered by a fiduciary holder, being treated as:
a. being or having been present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, being treated as having been
present in, or engaged in a trade or business in, the relevant Tax Jurisdiction, or having or having had a permanent establishment in
the United States;
b. having a current or former connection with the relevant Tax Jurisdiction (other than a connection arising solely as a result of the
ownership of the Notes, the receipt of any payment in respect of the Notes, or the enforcement of any rights under the indenture), including
being or having been a citizen or resident of the United States or treated as being or having been a resident thereof;
c. being or having been a personal holding company, a passive foreign investment company, or a controlled foreign corporation for U.S.
federal income tax purposes, a foreign tax exempt organization, or a corporation that has accumulated earnings to avoid United States
federal income tax;
- 8 -
d. being or having been a “10-percent shareholder”, as defined in section 871(h)(3) of the Code, or any successor provision,
of us; or
e. being or having been a bank receiving payments on an extension of credit made pursuant to a loan agreement entered into in the ordinary
course of its trade or business, within the meaning of section 881(c)(3) of the Code or any successor provision;
(ii) to any Holder that is not the sole beneficial owner of the Notes, or a portion of the Notes, or that is a fiduciary, partnership,
or limited liability company, but only to the extent that a beneficiary or settlor with respect to the fiduciary, a beneficial owner,
or member of the partnership or limited liability company would not have been entitled to the payment of an additional amount had the
beneficiary, settlor, beneficial owner, or member received directly its beneficial or distributive share of the payment;
(iii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the failure of the holder, beneficial
owner, or any other person to comply with certification, identification, or information reporting requirements concerning the nationality,
residence, identity, or connection with the United States of the holder or beneficial owner of the Notes, if compliance is required by
statute, by regulation of the United States or any taxing authority therein or by an applicable income tax treaty to which the United
States is a party as a precondition to exemption from such tax, assessment, or other governmental charge (including, for the avoidance
of doubt, any backup withholding tax imposed pursuant to Section 3406 of the Code (or any amended or successor provision) (relating
to backup withholding tax));
(iv) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed otherwise than by withholding by the Issuer or a paying agent
from the payment;
(v) to any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, wealth, capital gains, or personal property tax or similar tax, assessment,
or other governmental charge;
(vi) to any tax, assessment or other governmental charge that would not have been imposed but for the presentation by the holder of any
Note, where presentation is required, for payment on a date more than 10 days after the date on which payment became due and payable or
the date on which payment thereof is duly provided for, whichever occurs later;
(vii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge required to be withheld or deducted that is imposed on a payment pursuant to
Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code (or any amended or successor version of such Sections that is substantively comparable and not
materially more onerous to comply with), any U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, or any other official interpretations thereof
(collectively, “FATCA”), any agreement (including any intergovernmental agreement) entered into in connection therewith,
or any law, regulation, or other official guidance enacted in any jurisdiction implementing FATCA or an intergovernmental agreement in
respect of FATCA;
(viii) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge that is imposed or withheld solely by reason of a change in law, regulation,
or administrative or judicial interpretation that becomes effective more than 15 days after the payment becomes due or is duly provided
for, whichever occurs later;
(ix) to any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge imposed by reason of the failure of the beneficial owner to fulfill the statement
requirements of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code;
(x) to any tax imposed pursuant to Section 871(h)(6) or 881(c)(6) of the Code (or any amended or successor provisions);
or
(xi) to any tax imposed as a result of any combination of items (i) through (x).
- 9 -
Except as specifically provided above,
the Issuer shall not be required to pay additional amounts in respect of any tax, assessment, or other governmental charge. References
in this Note to any payment on the Notes shall include the related payment of additional amounts, as applicable.
As used herein, the term “United
States” means the United States of America, any state thereof, and the District of Columbia.
8. Redemption
for Tax Reasons
If, as a result of any change in, or
amendment to, the laws (or any regulations or rulings promulgated under the laws) of the relevant Tax Jurisdiction or any change in, or
amendments to, an official position regarding the application, interpretation, administration, or enforcement thereof (including by virtue
of any action taken by a taxing authority, a holding, judgment, or order by a court of competent jurisdiction (whether or not such action
was taken or brought with respect to the Issuer), or a change in published administrative practice) that is announced and/or becomes effective
on or after June 8, 2026 (or, if the Tax Jurisdiction is not the United States, after the date such Tax Jurisdiction became a Tax
Jurisdiction), based upon a written opinion of independent counsel selected by the Issuer, the Issuer shall become obligated to pay additional
amounts pursuant to Section 7, then the Issuer may at any time at its option redeem, in whole, but not in part, the Notes on not
less than 10 nor more than 90 days’ prior notice, at a redemption price equal to 100% of their principal amount, plus accrued and
unpaid interest, if any (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any additional amounts), on the Notes to be redeemed to, but not including,
the redemption date.
The Issuer will not give any such notice
of redemption of Notes earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer would be obligated to pay additional amounts
if a payment in respect of the Notes was then due, and the law giving rise to the obligation to pay additional amounts (whether the obligation
to withhold is then effective or will become effective after the notice) must be in effect at the time such notice is given.
9. 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 Base 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 Base 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.
10. Authentication.
This Note shall not be valid until the
Trustee or an authenticating agent manually signs the certificate of authentication on this Note.
11. 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).
- 10 -
12. CUSIP

Pursuant to a recommendation promulgated
by the Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures, the Issuer has caused CUSIP numbers to be printed on the Notes as a convenience
to the Holders of the Notes. No representation is made as to the accuracy of such numbers as printed on the Notes and reliance may
be placed only on the other identification numbers printed hereon.
13. Governing
Law.

govern the Indenture and this Note without regard to conflicts of laws principles thereof.

Re: Amazon.com, Inc.
Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-293246)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Amazon.com, Inc.,
a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the preparation and filing with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) of a Registration Statement on Form S-3, file no. 333-293246 (the “Registration
Statement”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), the prospectus included
therein, the prospectus supplement dated June 8, 2026, filed with the Commission on June 10, 2026 pursuant to Rule 424(b) of
the Securities Act (the “Prospectus Supplement”), and the offering by the Company pursuant thereto C$14,000,000,000
aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.400% notes due 2029, 3.700% notes due 2031, 4.000% notes due 2033, 4.350% notes due
2036, and 5.000% notes due 2056 (collectively, the “Notes”).
The Notes have been issued pursuant to the Indenture
dated as of November 29, 2012 (the “Base Indenture”) between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association,
as trustee (the “Prior Trustee”), as amended and supplemented by Supplemental Indenture No. 1 dated as of
April 13, 2022 (the “Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”)
among the Company, the Prior Trustee, as prior trustee, and Computershare Trust Company, National Association, as successor trustee, and
the Officers’ Certificate of the Company dated as of June 12, 2026 establishing the terms of each series of Notes pursuant
to Section 2.2 of the Base Indenture (the “Officers’ Certificate”).
In arriving at the opinions expressed below, we
have examined originals, or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction as being true and complete copies of the originals,
of the Indenture, Officers’ Certificate, and the Notes and such other documents, corporate records, certificates of officers of
the Company and of public officials, and other instruments as we have deemed necessary or advisable to enable us to render these opinions.
In our examination, we have assumed, without independent investigation, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity and competency
of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to original documents of all
documents submitted to us as copies.

As to any facts material to these opinions, we have relied to the extent we deemed appropriate and without independent investigation upon
statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the assumptions,
exceptions, qualifications, and limitations set forth herein, we are of the opinion that the Notes are legal, valid, and binding obligations
of the Company, enforceable against the Company in accordance with their respective terms.
The opinions expressed above are subject to the
following additional exceptions, qualifications, limitations, and assumptions:
A. We
render no opinion herein as to matters involving the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of New York. This opinion is limited
to the effect of the current state of the laws of the State of New York and the facts as they currently exist. We assume no obligation
to revise or supplement this opinion in the event of future changes in such laws or the interpretations thereof or such facts.
B. The
opinion above is subject to (i) the effect of any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, arrangement, or similar laws
affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally, including without limitation the effect of statutory or other laws regarding
fraudulent transfers or preferential transfers, and (ii) general principles of equity, including without limitation concepts of
materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, and the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief,
or other equitable remedies regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.
C. We
express no opinion regarding the effectiveness of (i) any waiver of stay, extension, or usury laws, (ii) provisions relating
to indemnification, exculpation, or contribution, to the extent such provisions may be held unenforceable as contrary to public policy
or federal or state securities laws or due to the negligence or willful misconduct of the indemnified party, (iii) any provision
waiving the right to object to venue in any court, (iv) any agreement to submit to the jurisdiction of any Federal court, (v) any
waiver of the right to jury trial, or (vi) any provision to the effect that every right or remedy is cumulative and may be exercised
in addition to any other right or remedy or that the election of some particular remedy does not preclude recourse to one or more others.
We consent to the filing of this opinion as an
exhibit to the Registration Statement, and we further consent to the use of our name under the caption “Validity of the Securities”
in the Registration Statement and “Validity of the Notes” in the Prospectus Supplement. In giving these consents, we do not
thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and
regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.
