UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial
statements give effect to the Junglee Merger. The Junglee Merger was accounted
for under the purchase method of accounting in accordance with APB Opinion No.
16. Under the purchase method of accounting, the purchase price is allocated to
the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair
values. Estimates of the fair values of the assets and liabilities of Junglee
have been combined with the recorded values of the assets and liabilities of
Amazon.com in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial
statements.

     The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated balance sheet has
been prepared to reflect the Junglee Merger as if it occurred on June 30, 1998.
The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated statements of operations
reflect the results of operations of Amazon.com and Junglee for the year ended
December 31, 1997 and the six months ended June 30, 1998 as if the Junglee
Merger occurred on January 1, 1997.

     The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial
statements are presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily
indicative of the combined condensed consolidated financial position or results
of operations in future periods or the results that actually would have been
realized had Amazon.com and Junglee been a combined company during the
specified periods. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed consolidated
financial statements, including the notes thereto, are qualified in their
entirety by reference to, and should be read in conjunction with, the
historical consolidated financial statements of Amazon.com, included in its
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1997 and Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 1998 and June 30,
1998 and the Company's Current Reports on Form 8-K filed August 27, 1998 and

     NOTES TO PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (UNAUDITED)


BASIS OF PRESENTATION

  The pro forma combined condensed consolidated financial statements reflect the
issuance of approximately 1,600,000 shares of Amazon.com common stock, par value
$.01 per share ("Amazon.com Common Stock"), and the assumption of all
outstanding options and warrants in connection with the acquisition of Junglee.
The Junglee Merger was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting in
accordance with APB Opinion No. 16. Under the purchase method of accounting, the
purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based
on their estimated fair values. Estimates of the fair values of the assets and
liabilities of Junglee have been combined with the recorded values of the assets
and liabilities of Amazon.com in the unaudited pro forma combined condensed
consolidated financial statements.


PRO FORMA ADJUSTMENTS

        (a)    To reflect the issuance of approximately 1,600,000 shares of
               Amazon.com Common Stock and the assumption of all outstanding
               options and warrants in connection with the Junglee Merger, for
               an aggregate purchase price of approximately $180 million,
               including approximately $3 million of transaction costs.

        (b)    To eliminate the historical accumulated deficit of Junglee.

        (c)    To record the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of
               assets and liabilities acquired in connection with the Junglee
               Merger. The purchase price allocation is based on management's
               estimates of the fair values of the tangible assets, intangible
               assets and technology, which has not reached technological
               feasibility and therefore, has no alternative future use. The
               book value of tangible assets and liabilities acquired are
               assumed to approximate fair value. The goodwill and substantially
               all other purchased intangible assets will be amortized on a
               straight line basis over approximately 3 years.


PRO FORMA NET LOSS PER SHARE

  Basic pro forma earnings per share is computed using the weighted average
number of Amazon.com common shares outstanding during the period plus shares of
Amazon.com Common Stock issued in connection with the Junglee Merger, excluding
Amazon.com Common Stock subject to repurchase. Diluted pro forma earnings per
share is computed using the weighted average number of common and common
equivalent shares outstanding during the period plus shares of Amazon.com Common
Stock and common equivalent shares assumed in connection with the Junglee
Merger. Common equivalent shares are excluded from the computation if their
effect is antidilutive. Amazon.com Common Stock, options and warrants issued in
connection with the Junglee Merger are assumed outstanding at the beginning of
the period.


CONFORMING AND RECLASSIFICATION ADJUSTMENTS

  There were no material adjustments required to conform the accounting policies
of Amazon.com and Junglee. Certain amounts have been reclassified to conform to
Amazon.com's financial statement presentation. There have been no significant
intercompany transactions.
