FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus
contain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. All statements other than statements of historical fact,
including statements regarding guidance, industry prospects or future results of operations or financial position, made in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus
supplement or the accompanying prospectus are forward-looking. We use words such as anticipates, believes, expects, future, intends, and similar expressions to identify forward-
looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect management's current expectations and are inherently uncertain. Actual results could differ materially for a variety of
reasons, including, among others, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, changes in global economic conditions and consumer spending, world events, the rate of growth of the
Internet and online commerce, the amount that we invest in new business opportunities and the timing of those investments, the mix of products sold to customers, the mix of net
sales derived from products as compared with services, the extent to which we owe income taxes, competition, management of growth, potential fluctuations in operating results,
international growth and expansion, the outcomes of legal proceedings and claims, fulfillment center optimization, risks of inventory management, seasonality, the degree to which
we enter into, maintain, and develop commercial agreements, acquisitions, and strategic transactions, payments risks, and risks of fulfillment throughput and productivity. In
addition, the current global economic climate amplifies many of these risks. These risks and uncertainties, as well as other risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results
to differ significantly from management's expectations, are described in greater detail in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2012,
under "Item 1A. Risk Factors." Although we undertake no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise, except as required by law, you are advised to consult any additional disclosures we make in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and
Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC. See "Where You Can Find More Information."

About Amazon.com

Amazon.com opened its virtual doors on the World Wide Web in July 1995 and offers Earth's Biggest Selection. We seek to be Earth's most customer-centric company
for four primary customer sets: consumers, sellers, enterprises, and content creators. In addition, we generate revenue through other marketing and promotional services, such
as online advertising and co-branded credit card agreements. We have organized our operations into two principal segments: North America and International.

Consumers

We serve consumers through our retail websites, and focus on selection, price, and convenience. We design our websites to enable millions of unique products to be
sold by us and by third parties across dozens of product categories. We also manufacture and sell Kindle devices. We strive to offer our customers the lowest prices possible
through low everyday product pricing and shipping offers, including through membership in Amazon Prime, and to improve our operating efficiencies so that we can continue
to lower prices for our customers. We also provide easy-to-use functionality, fast and reliable fulfillment, and timely customer service.

We fulfill customer orders in a number of ways, including through the U.S. and international fulfillment centers and warehouses that we operate, through co-sourced
and outsourced arrangements in certain countries, and through digital delivery. We operate customer service centers globally, which are supplemented by co-sourced
arrangements.

Sellers

We offer programs that enable sellers to sell their products on our websites and their own branded websites and to fulfill orders through us. We are not the seller of
record in these transactions, but instead earn fixed fees, revenue share fees, per-unit activity fees or some combination thereof.

Enterprises

We serve developers and enterprises of all sizes through Amazon Web Services, which provides access to technology infrastructure that enables virtually any type of
business.

Content Creators

We serve authors and independent publishers with Kindle Direct Publishing, an online platform that allows independent authors and publishers to choose a 70%
royalty option and make their books available in the Kindle Store. Amazon's own publishing arm, Amazon Publishing, offers authors another outlet to publish their books. We
also serve authors, musicians, filmmakers and other content creators through CreateSpace, which provides on-demand publishing and manufacturing for independent content
creators, publishers, film studios and music labels.

Recent Developments

Proposed Acquisition of Corporate Office Space

In October 2012, we entered into purchase and sale agreements to acquire 11 buildings comprising 1.8 million square feet of our currently leased corporate office
space in Seattle, Washington, for approximately $1.16 billion. Subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions, we expect to close the purchase in the fourth quarter of
2012, and made a non-refundable deposit of $51 million, which will be forfeited if we do not close the transaction in the fourth quarter of 2012.

Risk Factors

An investment in the notes involves risk. You should carefully consider the information set forth in the section of this prospectus supplement entitled "Risk Factors"
beginning on page S-8, as well as the other risk factors and other information included in or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement and the accompanying
prospectus, before deciding whether to invest in the notes.

Corporate Information

Amazon.com, Inc. was incorporated in 1994 in the State of Washington and reincorporated in 1996 in the State of Delaware. Our principal corporate offices are
located in Seattle, Washington. We completed our initial public offering in May 1997 and our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market under the symbol
"AMZN." We maintain a website at www.amazon.com. Information contained in, or accessible through, our website is not incorporated into this prospectus supplement or the
accompanying prospectus.
