2 <br />PROJECT FACTS <br /> <br />Employment: The Project is expected to create as many as fifty thousand (50,000) new full-time jobs <br />with an average annual compensation exceeding one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) per <br />employee. We will begin sourcing for talent at Amazon HQ2 upon final site selection. Please note <br />that the actual average wage rate may vary from the projected wage rate depending upon prevailing <br />rates at the final location. Amazon also provides a highly competitive benefits package including a <br />retirement plan, health insurance, and maternity/paternity leave, featuring Amazon’s Leave Share <br />and Ramp Back program. All job numbers, categories, and salaries contained herein are <br />estimates/projections and are subject to change. The jobs will likely be broken down into the <br />following categories: executive/management, engineering with a preference for software <br />development engineers (SDE), legal, accounting, and administrative. Amazon is an equal opportunity <br />employer. <br /> <br />Building/Site Requirements: Amazon is considering greenfield sites, infill sites, existing buildings, or a <br />combination for the Project. If existing buildings are available that can be retrofitted/expanded within <br />an acceptable budget and time schedule, Amazon may consider this option; however, the company <br />acknowledges that existing buildings may not be available to meet its requirements. As such, Amazon <br />will prioritize certified or shovel-ready greenfield sites and infill opportunities with appropriate <br />infrastructure and ability to meet the Project’s timeline and development demands, as set forth <br />below. <br /> <br />The following is a summary of the Project’s ideal site and building requirements: <br /> <br />Core Preferences Quantity Units Description <br />Site Requirements <br />Proximity to population center 30 Miles <br />Proximity to International <br />airport <br /> <br />Within approx. 45 <br /> <br />Minutes <br /> <br /> <br />Proximity to major highways <br />and arterial roads <br /> <br /> <br />Not more than 1-2 <br /> <br /> <br />Miles <br />Close to major arterial <br />roads to provide optimal <br />access <br /> <br /> <br />Access to mass transit <br /> <br /> <br />At site <br /> Direct access to rail, <br />train, subway/metro, <br />bus routes <br />Building Requirements <br />Initial Square Foot Requirement 500,000+ Sq.
