2009 Corporate tax returns

Dear Claudia,

We are pleased to provide you with the original corporate tax returns for the taxable year 2009, along with a copy for your records. These returns were prepared on the basis of the information provided by Ms Nancy Charlton.

Page 8 of the original income tax return must be signed by a legal representative of the company. The signed returns must then be sent to the following address for Amazon Services Europe S.a r.l., Amazon EU S.a r.l., Amazon Europe Holding Technologies S.C.S. and its partners, Amazon Media EU S.a r.l. and Amazon Eurasia Holdings S.a rJ.:

The signed FinLux S.a r.l. return must then be sent to the following address:

In could you us a copy of the tax assessments for the taxable year 2009 as soon as you receive them, so that we can that match the filed returns?

note that if it is necessary to the latter has to term of pwc

With respect to these tax returns, we would like to draw your attention to the following items.

1 General information

• Advance tax agreement

We understand the ATA currently in place is valid only until 2010 (financial year included). We would therefore advise to review it and, if necessary, amend the terms of the agreement already reached.

We remain at your disposal to work on that issue, should you need it.

• Investments in subsidiaries

As regards the financing of the investments in subsidiaries for Amazon EU S.a r.l. (AEU), and as requested by you, we completed the tax returns based on the excel file you sent us.

We understand that, based on your analysis, Amazon Joyo Co., Ltd., the Chinese joint-venture is considered as a qualifying entity.

As in 2008, it is our understanding that AEU acquired 35 % of the share capital of Lovefilm International LTD ("Lovefilm") as well as warrants by contributing the DVD rental business. Based on the 2009 accounts, only shares in Lovefilm are booked, meaning that, on December 31, 2009, in the accounts of AEU, no reference is made to the holding of warrant instruments.

• Transferable securities

The accounting policy regarding transferable securities is to hold them at cost less impairment if fair value is lower. Therefore, no latent gains should be recorded in the financial statements. Thus, we did not make, as for previous years, any adjustments from a tax perspective.

• Tax assessments

Please also note that we checked the 2006, 2007 and 2008 tax assessments issued by the tax authorities on June 9, 2010 for AEU and the 2006 and 2008 tax assessments issued on the same date for ASE and AMEU. The tax assessments are in line with the reviewed tax returns for the corresponding entities.

• Credit Facility Agreement and royalties

As mentioned every year, from a practical vievvpoint, it is PwC's position to the computation of the CF A and royalties to the tax authorities in order to enable them to assess more easily the tax returns. Therefore, we would like to draw your attention to fact that the tax authorities could request additional information in regard. As the and the CFA computations.

• Tax credit for investments

rP~'nP'"' to AEU and as mentioned last year, we understand that tangible assets named were linked to buildings. note that these

uco,1c;11L from the tax investments. Given the p-wc

Regarding this last condition, please note that the Administrative Tribunal of Luxembourg has recently raised the question to the European Court of Justice whether this condition can be considered as contrary to the free movement of capital (see Newsflash enclosed). If the Court of Justice confirms this, the investments of Amazon made in the EU (excluding the investments made in a permanent establishment, which should be the case here) should benefit from a tax credit in Luxembourg.

Moreover, we noticed that computers are amortized during a period of 2 years. Should you wish in the future to benefit from tax credit for investments for these assets, we would recommend amortizing them during a period of 3 years.

• Details of balance sheet and profit and loss account

As agreed, details of balance sheet and profit and loss account have been disclosed in the tax returns based on the details you provided us with.

Based on the details you provided us with, we noticed that the sole foreign withholding tax that has been booked in 2009 is related to the receipt of interest income from a Japanese counterpart. We therefore prepared a special appendix to show the computation of the maximum amount that can be deducted from the income tax charge.

• Other legal provisions applicable in Luxembourg

Given the information at our disposal, we were not able to assess the possibility for Amazon to benefit from all legal provisions applicable in Luxembourg.

The following may therefore be applicable to Amazon entities: Tax credit for continuous training, Tax credit for unemployed people, IP law.

We had a discussion regarding the potential benefits and the application of the IP law. We also provided you with the details of the application of the tax credit for unemployed people.

As we received no details on these, no tax credit has been requested in the tax returns as regards the above-mentioned ta.x credits.

Regarding the aids for continuous training, please note that the Amazon entities could obtain a financial contribution (direct grant) or a tax credit amounting to 10% net of tax of the trainings costs. If the costs exceed EUR 75 ooo per year, a prior approval needs to be obtained to benefit from the aid. For costs not exceeding EUR 75 ooo, the request to the competent authority must be filed within 5 months after the end of the accounting year. In practice, no aid could be obtained for the costs of the year 2009. For 2010, the expenses could benefit from the aid up to EUR 75 ooo if the is filed before 31, 2011.

2 Amazon EU S.a r.l. (AEU)

• Corporate Income Tax (CIT) and Municipal Business Tax (MBT)

On the basis of the annual accounts as at December 31, 2009, the commercial result of the company is a profit of EUR 10 590 530.

of p-wc

Accordingly, the company realized a tax profit amounting to EUR 14 809 869. As we did not identify any other adjustment, the tax base should amount to EUR 14 809 869 on a stand-alone basis.

Moreover, the company benefits from a tax credit for investment for an amount of EUR 10 240, as well as a tax credit for foreign withholding tax paid for EUR 73 631.

• Net Wealth Tax (NWT)

The net wealth value for taxation purposes is known as the "unitary value". The latter is set on January 1 of each year and is determined by the difference between the assets and the liabilities against third parties, usually to be taken into account for their balance sheet value. The Net Wealth tax due is 0,5 % of the rounded unitary value.

The rounded unitary value as at January 1, 2009 should amount to EUR 24 203 ooo. Therefore, the company should be liable to the minimum Net Wealth Tax charge of EUR 121 015. However, we understand that the company allocated to a non-distributable reserve an amount of EUR 605 075. Therefore, the company should be liable to no Net Wealth Tax charge for the year 2009.

We would like to draw your attention to the fact that the rounded unitary value as at January 1, 2010 should amount to EUR 38 747 ooo. Therefore, the company should be liable to a Net Wealth Tax charge of EUR 193 735 for the year 2010. In order for the company not to be liable to this Net Wealth Tax charge, a non-distributable reserve for an amount of EUR 968 675 should be allocated before the end of the year 2010.

• Subscription to the "Chambre de Commerce"

We would like to inform you that the contribution to the "Chambre de Commerce" for the year 2011 is computed on the taxable basis for CIT 2009 before carried forward tax losses and any tax credits. The rate used to obtain the amount of the subscription is 0,2 %.

As the company's tax base should amount to EUR 14 809 869 on a stand-alone basis for the year 2009, the contribution to pay for 2011 should amount to EUR 29 620.

As regards the contribution to pay for 2009, the latter should amount to EUR 70 based on a stand­ alone 2007 negative tax base in the tax return.

3 Amazon Services Europe S.a r.l. (ASE)

of the statutory annual accounts as at December 31, 2009, the company realized a profit to EUR 4 549 421, which to by the tax amounting to EUR 1422 347.

• Net Wealth Tax p-wc

• Subscription to the "Chambre de Commerce"

As the company's tax base should amount to EUR 4 971 768 on a stand-alone basis for the year 2009, the contribution to pay for 2011 should amount to EUR 9 944.

As regards the contribution to pay for 2009, as the company's tax base should amount to EUR 16 896 818, the contribution to pay for 2009 should amount to EUR 33 794.

4 Amazon Media EU S.a r.1. (AMEU)

• Corporate Income Tax and Municipal Business Tax

On the basis of the statutory annual accounts as at December 31, 2009, the company realized a commercial loss amounting to EUR 1 102 063. This result has to be adjusted by the tax charge income for an amount of EUR 439 482.

Therefore, the tax base for the year 2009 should be a loss on a stand-alone basis.

Moreover, the company benefits from carried forward tax losses for an amount of EUR 1 519 685.

• Net Wealth Tax

The rounded unitary value as at January 1, 2009 should amount to EUR 177 ooo. Therefore, the company should be liable to a Net Wealth Tax charge of EUR 885. However, we understand that the company allocated to a non-distributable reserve an amount of EUR 4 425. Therefore, the company should be liable to no Net Wealth Tax charge for the year 2009.

• Subscription to the "Chambre de Commerce"

As the company realized a fiscal loss for the year 2009, the contribution to pay for 2011 should amount to EUR 70.

As regards the contribution to pay for 2009, the latter should amount to EUR 3 249 based on a stand-alone 2007 tax base of EUR 1 624 604.

5 Amazon EU S.a r.l. - Consolidated tax return

We entities are a tax in 2009:

• Amazon EU S.a • Amazon Services S.a • Amazon EU S.a r.L

As a consequence, the M1EU in 2009 may be AEUandASE.

Based on the the consolidated tax should amount to EUR 18 240 092. pwc

Therefore, AEU, the parent company of the tax , should be liable to a CIT charge amounting to EUR 3 899 756 and to an MBT charge amounting to EUR 1 230 022.

Due to a change in the templates of tax returns provided by the Tax Authorities, there is no need to prepare a consolidated tax return for the tax unity anymore. The tax return rather requires transferring all the taxable results to the parent company (Amazon EU S.a r.l.) in every single tax return of the entities that are part of the tax unity.

6 Amazon Europe Holding Technologies S.C.S.

This company is a tax transparent entity from a Luxembourg tax perspective. As a consequence, it does not need to subscribe to the "Chambre de Commerce" and the partners of Amazon Europe Holding Technologies S.C.S. should be taxed on their respective share of the partnership income.

Furthermore, Amazon Europe Holding Technologies S.C.S. is not a Luxembourg permanent establishment for the partners, as the partnership has no commercial activity. Therefore, the partners will not be subject to Luxembourg corporate income tax on their part of the S.C.S. profits and the partnership will not be subject to municipal business tax on its profit.

However, following the Luxembourg Tax Authorities request, you will find specific Corporate Income Tax returns for the company Europe Holding Technologies S.C.S. and for each of its partners.

Due to the fact that the partners do not have a permanent establishment in Luxembourg and, therefore, do not suffer any tax charge in Luxembourg, we did not show this year the change due to the liquidation of ACI Holdings Limited that occurred during the year 2009. We consider this should be done next year, presenting only the three partners in the tax return of the S.C.S ..

We understand you are dealing with the substance of the S.C.S. However, please note that we noticed the S.C.S. holds shares in two affiliated undertakings and granted two loans towards affiliated undertakings.

7 Amazon Eurasia Holdings S.a r.l. (AEH)

• Corporate Income Tax and Municipal Business Tax

On the basis of the statutory annual accounts as at December 31, 2009, the company realized a commercial profit amounting to EUR 868, which has to be adjusted by the non-deductible CIT ~ucu,._,,v amounting to EUR 842 and the NWT to EUR 100.

After the carried fon,yard tax the year 2009 should amount to EUR 4 148.

Consequently, the company should be liable to a CIT amounting to EUR andnoMBT for the year 2009.

• Net Wealth Tax p-wc

• Subscription to the "Chambre de Commerce"

As the company realized a fiscal profit of EUR 8 810 for the year 2009, the contribution to pay for 2011 should amount to EUR 70.

As regards the contribution to pay for 2007, as the company realized a fiscal profit of EUR 24 for the year 2007, the contribution to pay for 2009 should amount to EUR 70.

8 FinLux S.a r .1. (FinLux)

We understand from the financial statements that the company did not create a foreign branch yet. Therefore, we did not prepare any adjustments taxwise.

• Corporate Income Tax and Municipal Business Tax

On the basis of the statutory annual accounts as at December 31, 2009, the company realized a commercial profit amounting to EUR 2 860 211. This result has to be adjusted by the non­ deductible tax charge amounting to EUR 251104.

After deducting the carried forward tax losses of EUR 2 228 889 from the total amount, the tax base for the year 2009 should amount to EUR 882 426.

Consequently, the company should be liable to a CIT charge amounting to EUR 192 716, and an MBT charge amounting to EUR 58 381.

We noticed that the company granted a loan to Amazon Japan Logistics KK during the year 2009, in addition to the loan granted to Abebooks Inc., and to the loan received from Amazon EU S.a r.l.. This implied a profit of around EUR 3 Mio at year-end. Given the loss resulting last year from the same activity, the Tax Authorities may request some additional details regarding this profit from a transfer pricing point of view.

• Net Wealth Tax

The rounded unitary value as at January 1, 2009 should be negative. Therefore, the company should be liable to the minimum Net Wealth Tax charge of EUR 25. However, despite the fact that the reserve was not allocated when approving the statutory annual accounts 2009, we understand that the company wants to allocate to a non-distributable reserve an amount of EUR 125 in order to reduce the Net Wealth Tax due. Therefore, the company should be liable to no Net Wealth Tax for the year 2009. This reserve should be allocated when approving the statutory annual accounts 2010.

We would like to your attention to that the rounded unitary value as at amount to EUR ooo. company be liable to a of EUR 215 year 2010. In order for the company not to liable to this Net a non-distributable reserve for an amount of EUR 691 075 should be allocated end of the year 2011. p-wc

• Subscription to the "Chambre de Commerce"

As the company realized a fiscal profit of EUR 3 111 315 for the year 2009, the contribution to pay for 2011 should amount to EUR 6 223.

Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Yours sincerely,
