(“Amazon”). 3M has issued a warrant (the “Warrant”) to a separate wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon to purchase up to 3,162,015 shares (the “Warrant Shares”) of 3M common stock over a seven year period, at a purchase price per common share of $164.89. 85% of the Warrant Shares will vest subject to payments from Amazon for optical connectivity and other Data Center products, with full vesting once cumulative payments reach $6 billion, and the remaining Warrant Shares vesting subject to event-based milestones.

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, 3M assumes no duty to update those statements, and readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any of those statements. Forward-looking statements are based on certain assumptions and expectations of future events and trends that are subject to risks and uncertainties, including those described in Part I, Item 1A, "Risk Factors" of 3M's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.
