ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS
(a) THE JUNGLEE MERGER
On August 3, 1998, Amazon.com, Inc. ("Amazon.com") entered into a
definitive agreement for the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock
of Junglee Corp., a Delaware corporation ("Junglee"), pursuant to an Agreement
and Plan of Merger dated as of August 3, 1998 (the "Junglee Merger Agreement"),
by and among Amazon.com, Junglee and AJ Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon.com ("Junglee Merger Sub").
Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, Junglee Merger Sub
will be merged with and into Junglee, with Junglee as the surviving corporation
(the "Junglee Merger").
Junglee, founded in June 1996 and based in Sunnyvale, California, has
developed World Wide Web-based virtual database technology to help consumers
find products on the Internet.
Amazon.com will issue approximately 1,600,000 shares of Amazon.com
common stock, par value $.01 per share ("Amazon.com Common Stock"), and assume
all outstanding options in connection with the acquisition of Junglee, pursuant
to the formula set forth below.
Pursuant to the terms of the Junglee Merger Agreement, at the effective
time of the Junglee Merger, each issued and outstanding share of Junglee common
stock, par value $.001 per share (the "Junglee Common Stock"), including each
share of Junglee Common Stock issued upon conversion of each issued and
outstanding share of Junglee Series A Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per
share, Series B Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share, and Series C
Preferred Stock, par value $.001 per share (together with the Junglee Common
Stock, the "Junglee Capital Stock"), other than shares of Junglee Capital Stock,
if any, for which dissenters' rights have been or will be perfected in
compliance with the applicable laws of the State of Delaware and the State of
California, will be converted into the right to receive that number of shares of
Amazon.com Common Stock, determined by dividing (i) 1,891,568 by (ii) the total
number of shares of Junglee Capital Stock outstanding immediately prior to the
effective time on a fully diluted basis, assuming all outstanding options and
warrants to purchase shares of Junglee Capital Stock have been validly exercised
and issued prior to the effective time (the "Junglee Exchange Ratio").
In addition, each option to purchase shares of Junglee Common Stock
outstanding at the effective time of the Junglee Merger will be assumed by
Amazon.com and will be treated as an option to purchase that number of
Amazon.com
PAGE 1
Common Shares equal to the product of the Junglee Exchange Ratio and the number
of shares of Junglee Common Stock subject to such option.
Amazon.com anticipates that the Junglee Merger will be accounted for
under the purchase method of accounting.
Pursuant to the Junglee Merger Agreement, Junglee and its stockholders
have agreed to indemnify and hold Amazon.com and the surviving corporation
harmless for any losses that may be suffered by Amazon.com or its affiliates
arising out of or in connection with any inaccuracy in, or misrepresentation or
breach of, any representation or warranty made by Junglee in the Junglee Merger
Agreement and related agreements, or any failure by Junglee to perform its
obligations under the Junglee Merger Agreement and related agreements. 190,000
of the shares of Amazon.com Common Stock to be issued in connection with the
Junglee Merger will be deposited with an escrow agent to secure such
indemnification obligations.
Pursuant to an Investor Rights Agreement to be executed at the closing
of the Junglee Merger (the "Junglee Investor Rights Agreement"), by and between
Amazon.com and the stockholders of Junglee, Amazon.com has agreed to prepare and
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), within 90 days of
the effective time of the Junglee Merger, a Registration Statement on Form S-3
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), covering
the resale of the Amazon.com Common Stock to be issued in the Junglee Merger
and to use its best efforts to have the Registration Statement declared
effective by the SEC as promptly as practicable thereafter.
The Junglee Merger Agreement and the form of Junglee Investor Rights
Agreement (together, the "Junglee Agreements") are filed as exhibits to this
report and are incorporated herein by reference. The descriptions of the Junglee
Agreements herein do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their
entirety by the provisions of the Junglee Agreements.
(b) THE PLANETALL MERGER
On August 3, 1998, Amazon.com entered into a definitive agreement for
the acquisition of all of the outstanding capital stock of Sage Enterprises,
Inc., a Massachusetts corporation ("PlanetAll"), pursuant to an Agreement and
Plan of Merger dated as of August 3, 1998 (the "PlanetAll Merger Agreement"), by
and among Amazon.com, PlanetAll and Pacific Acquisition, Inc., a Massachusetts
corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon.com ("PlanetAll Merger Sub").
Subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions precedent, PlanetAll Merger
Sub will

(the "PlanetAll Merger").
PlanetAll, founded in September 1996 and based in Boston,
Massachusetts, provides contact management services via the Internet, including
Web-based address book, calendar and reminder features.
Amazon.com will issue approximately 800,000 shares of Amazon.com Common
Stock and assume all outstanding options in connection with the acquisition of
PlanetAll, pursuant to the formula set forth below.
Pursuant to the terms of the PlanetAll Merger Agreement, at the
effective time of the PlanetAll Merger, each issued and outstanding share of
PlanetAll common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "PlanetAll Common Stock"),
and each issued and outstanding share of PlanetAll Series A Preferred Stock, par
value $.01 per share, and Series B Preferred Stock, par value $.01 per share
(together with the PlanetAll Common Stock, the "PlanetAll Capital Stock"), other
than shares of PlanetAll Capital Stock, if any, for which dissenters' rights
have been or will be perfected in compliance with the applicable laws of the
Commonwealth of Massachusetts, will be converted into the right to receive that
number of shares of Amazon.com Common Stock, determined by dividing (i) 900,000
by (ii) the total number of shares of PlanetAll Capital Stock outstanding
immediately prior to the effective time on a fully diluted basis (assuming all
outstanding options and warrants to purchase shares of PlanetAll Capital Stock
have been validly exercised and issued prior to the effective time (the
"PlanetAll Exchange Ratio").
In addition, each option to purchase shares of PlanetAll Common Stock
outstanding at the effective time of the PlanetAll Merger will be assumed by
Amazon.com and will be treated as an option to purchase that number of
Amazon.com Common Shares equal to the product of the PlanetAll Exchange Ratio
and the number of shares of PlanetAll Common Stock subject to such option. Any
warrants to purchase shares of PlanetAll Capital Stock outstanding at the
effective time will be assumed by Amazon.com and will constitute a warrant to
acquire that number of shares of Amazon.com Common Stock equal to the product of
the PlanetAll Exchange Ratio and the number of shares of PlanetAll Capital Stock
subject to such warrant.
Amazon.com anticipates that the PlanetAll Merger will be accounted for
under the pooling of interests method of accounting.
Pursuant to the PlanetAll Merger Agreement, PlanetAll and its
stockholders have agreed to indemnify and hold Amazon.com and the surviving
corporation harmless for any losses that may be suffered by Amazon.com or its
affiliates arising

Agreement and related agreements or any failure by PlanetAll to perform its
obligations under the PlanetAll Merger Agreement and related agreements. Shares
representing 10% of the Amazon.com Common Stock to be issued at the effective
time of the PlanetAll Merger will be deposited with an escrow agent to secure
such indemnification obligations.
Pursuant to an Investor Rights Agreement to be executed at the closing
of the PlanetAll Merger (the "PlanetAll Investor Rights Agreement"), by and
