Welcome PayPal U.S. employees

          PayPal encourages you to invest in yourself and your future by participating in the PayPal
          401(k) Savings Plan (the “Plan”).

          When retirement seems far away, you might not know how to plan for it. But now could be the
          right time.

          Our retirement plan service provider, Schwab Retirement Plan Services, provides access to
          tools and resources to help you make informed choices about your future financial needs,
          investment alternatives, and the benefits of long-term saving. The Plan allows you to make
          pre-tax, Roth 401(k), and/or after-tax contributions and invest them according to your personal
          level of risk tolerance and timeline to retirement. In addition, PayPal provides a matching
          contribution* to help you work toward your retirement savings goals.

         This guide will assist you as you explore:
           • What to consider as you build your retirement savings.
           • How to review your current financial objectives to help work toward your savings goals.
           • How to choose investments from those available in the Plan.
           • How to take action.

          Additionally, whether you are joining the Plan for the first time, currently participating in the
          Plan, or approaching retirement age and looking for guidance on your options, Participant
          Services Representatives are available to assist you every step of the way. PayPal considers
          this Plan a very important benefit. We sincerely hope you will take this opportunity to save and
          invest in your financial future.
         *Employer contributions are paid on a pre-tax basis and may be taxable at withdrawal.

Start early. It’s important.

The Power of Compounding
Although it is never too late to start saving for retirement, starting early is one of the best ways to help build savings. The
sooner you start making contributions to the Plan, the more you may benefit from potential compounding of investment
earnings over time.

Jennifer and Brian both saved the same amount over 30 years. However, she started at age 25; he started at age 35.
Jennifer’s savings earned 10 additional years’ worth of compound interest by the time they both started withdrawals at age
65. Jennifer benefited from starting early. When will YOU start saving?

   Time in the market is more important than timing the market.

Three steps to enrollment:
    Step 1 - Decide how much to save.

      Savings Advantages
      Since Social Security may not provide enough income during your retirement years and inflation could reduce the
      spending power of your savings, it is important to develop a sound retirement plan. Saving through an employer-
      sponsored retirement plan is an important step in saving for retirement.

      First—Consider the Tax Advantages
      Pre-tax contributions: The amount you put into the Plan is deducted from your paycheck before it is taxed. The net
      impact on your take-home pay will be less than the amount you are contributing to the Plan, subject to applicable law.

      Tax-deferred earnings: In addition to the advantage of having your pre-tax contributions go into the Plan before taxes on
      your pay are calculated, your money may grow tax-deferred. This means any current tax due on any earnings stays in the
      Plan and contributes to the compounding in your Plan account. Of course, at retirement the withdrawals you make from
      your Plan account will be considered income and can be subject to regular income taxes, depending on your tax bracket
      at that time, subject to applicable law. You may be in a lower tax bracket during retirement, and your tax burden may be
      less than it is today.

      Tax-free earnings: You also have an opportunity to have your money grow tax-free with the Roth 401(k). This means
      you pay taxes at the time of the contribution. Assuming you meet the withdrawal qualifications, both your Roth 401(k)
      contributions and any associated investment earnings are distributed from the Plan tax-free, subject to applicable law.
      If you make after-tax contributions, withdrawals of the actual contribution are not taxed, but any associated earnings
      will be. Some of the factors to consider include your current tax rate, anticipated tax rate at retirement, and how long
      you anticipate the money will stay in your Plan account before you begin taking distributions.

      Plus, There Is the Company Contribution
      When you ask the question, “How much should I save for retirement?” invariably you will hear the answer, “As much
      as you can!” That may be true, but if you’re looking for a number, consider this: You can contribute from 1% to 50% of
      your eligible compensation to the Plan, up to $19,500. If you are 50 years of age or older in 2021 and make the additional
      catch-up contribution of $6,500, you can contribute a total of $26,000 in 2021. So, save as much as you can, and
      remember, PayPal makes a 4% matching contribution as well. Matching contributions apply to pre-tax and Roth 401(k)
      contributions only; after-tax contributions are not matched.

                                                          much less than the amount you contribute. There are also several
                                                          worksheets available that you can use to help determine how
                                                          much savings you may need when you retire. This will help you
                                                          move from “How much can I save?” to “How much do I need
                                                          to save?”

Step 2 - Decide how to invest.

The Plan offers investment strategies and choices for both “do-it-for-me” investors who want help managing their
investments and for “do-it-myself” investors who want to direct their investments, as shown below.

Do you want help making investment decisions for your Plan account?

            Yes, I’m a do-it-for-me investor.

    At the direction of the Plan Sponsor or Plan Administrator, Participants may have access to an advice service that can provide Participants with a
    retirement savings and investment strategy for their Plan account, furnished by Morningstar Investment Management LLC, an independent registered
    investment adviser and subsidiary of Morningstar, Inc. Recommendations are formulated and provided by Morningstar Investment Management
    through Morningstar® Retirement ManagerSM        , an advice program which is intended for citizens or legal residents of the United States and its territories,
    and can be accessed through workplace.schwab.com. Morningstar Investment Management will select investment options appropriate for the
    Participant’s strategy from the investment options available under the Plan as selected by the Plan Sponsor, Plan Administrator or other Plan fiduciary.
    Morningstar Investment Management is not affiliated with or an agent of Schwab Retirement Plan Services, Inc. (SRPS); Charles Schwab & Co., Inc.
    (CS&Co.), a federally registered investment advisor; or their affiliates. Neither SRPS, CS&Co., nor their affiliates supervise, make recommendations
    with respect to, or take responsibility for monitoring the advice services provided to the Participants by Morningstar Investment Management. Advice
    Consultants are registered representatives of CS&Co., not employees of Morningstar Investment Management, who may facilitate Participant access
    to Morningstar Retirement Manager, but do not provide investment advice or recommendations regarding the Morningstar Investment Management
    service. The term “personalized advice” refers to personal participant data such as age, salary, and Plan account balance, which will form the basis
    by which Morningstar Investment Management will establish the Participant’s savings and investment recommendations. Diversification and asset
    allocation strategies do not ensure a profit and cannot protect against losses in a declining market. There is no guarantee a Participant’s savings
    and investment strategy will provide adequate income at or through their retirement. Projections and other information regarding the
    likelihood of various retirement income and/or investment outcomes are hypothetical in nature, do not reflect actual results, and are not
    guarantees of future results. Results may vary with each use and over time. The advice service includes non-discretionary investment advice,
    which is available at no additional cost, beyond the expenses imposed by the underlying investments and the standard fees paid to SRPS, CS&Co.
    and their affiliates for recordkeeping and related services. For a complete list of investment options available under the Plan, as well as information
    pertaining to fees and expenses applicable to the Plan account, log in to workplace.schwab.com to find the most recent annual Fee and Investment
    Notice and any subsequent Change Notices under “History & Statements.” More information about fees and compensation that SRPS, CS&Co.
    and their affiliates receive is detailed in the Charles Schwab & Co., Inc. Advice Services with Morningstar Investment Management, LLC Disclosure
    Brochure (Form ADV Part 2A). Participants should carefully consider information contained in the materials furnished at their employer’s direction
    regarding the services provided by SRPS and its affiliates and Morningstar Investment Management, including information regarding compensation,
    affiliations and potential conflicts. The Morningstar name and logo are registered marks of Morningstar, Inc.
