65.In consideration of the full settlement, compromise, and release of the Released Plaintiffs' Claims(defined in paragraph 68 below) against the Released

Defendants' Persons (defined in paragraph 68 below) and the dismissal with prejudice of the Action, Plaintiffs, Defendants, the Special Litigation Committee, and Walmart have agreed to the following:

(i)Monetary Consideration: No later than (i) forty calendar days after the Parties file the Stipulation with the Court; and (ii) the Insurers receive all information reasonably required to process payment, whichever is later, Defendants shall cause the Insurers to pay the Settlement Amount ($123,000,000 in cash) into an escrow account controlled by Plaintiffs' Counsel (the "Escrow Account"), subject to refund with any interest earned thereon while on deposit in the Escrow Account, if the Settlement is terminated or cancelled pursuant to the Stipulation. No later than two business days after the Court's entering an order approving the Settlement and any Fee and Expense Award, Plaintiffs' Counsel shall transfer (i) the Settlement Amount, plus any interest earned thereon while on deposit in the Escrow Account (the "Settlement Fund"), less any Fee and Expense Award, to Walmart; and (ii) any Fee and Expense Award to Plaintiffs' Counsel, subject to deductions for required Taxes incurred by the Escrow Account and subject to refund if the Settlement is terminated or cancelled pursuant to the Stipulation.

(ii)Governance: No later than thirty days after the Effective Date, Defendants and the Company shall implement the corporate governance practices set forth in Exhibit E to the Stipulation.

WHAT ARE THE PARTIES' REASONS FOR THE SETTLEMENT?

66.Plaintiffs, through Plaintiffs' Counsel, have conducted an extensive investigation and engaged in discovery relating to the claims and underlying events and transactions alleged in the Action. Plaintiffs' Counsel have analyzed the evidence adduced during their investigation and discovery and have also researched the applicable law with respect to the claims asserted in the Action and the potential defenses thereto. In negotiating and evaluating the terms of the Settlement, Plaintiffs and Plaintiffs' Counsel considered the significant legal and factual defenses to Plaintiffs' claims and the expense, length, and risk of pursuing their claims through trial and appeals. While Plaintiffs brought their claims in good faith and continue to believe that their claims have merit, Defendants vigorously argued that they had acted appropriately and are not subject to liability or damages. In light of the substantial monetary recovery and governance practices achieved by the Settlement, Plaintiffs and Plaintiffs' Counsel have determined that the proposed Settlement is fair, reasonable, adequate, and in the best interests of Walmart and its

stockholders. The Settlement provides substantial immediate benefits to Walmart without the risk that continued litigation could result in obtaining similar or lesser relief for Walmart after continued extensive and expensive litigation, including trial and the appeals that were likely to follow.

67.Defendants, to avoid the costs, disruption, and distraction of further litigation, and without admitting the validity of any allegations made in the Action, or any liability with respect thereto, have concluded that it is desirable that the claims against them be settled on the terms reflected in the Stipulation. Defendants have denied, and continue to deny, that they committed, or aided and abetted in the commission of, any violation of law or duty or engaged in any wrongful acts whatsoever, including specifically those alleged in the Action, and expressly maintain that they have complied with their statutory, fiduciary, and other legal duties, and are entering into the Stipulation and the Settlement to eliminate the burden, expense, and uncertainties inherent in further litigation.

WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF THE SETTLEMENT IS APPROVED? WHAT CLAIMS WILL THE SETTLEMENT RELEASE?

68.If the Settlement is approved, the Court will enter a Final Order and Judgment Approving Derivative Action Settlement (the "Judgment"). Pursuant to the Judgment, without further action by anyone, upon the Effective Date of the Settlement, the Action will be dismissed with prejudice and the following releases will occur:

69.The "Effective Date" means the first date by which all of the following events and conditions have been met and have occurred or have been waived: (i) payment of the Settlement Amount into the Escrow Account in accordance with the Stipulation, as discussed in paragraph 65 above; (ii) the Federal Derivative Actions have been dismissed with prejudice; (iii) the Litigation Demands have been withdrawn; (iv) Plaintiffs and Defendants have not exercised their options to terminate the Settlement; and (v) the Court has entered the Judgment and the Judgment has become Final.

70.By Order of the Court, (i) all proceedings in the Action other than proceedings necessary to carry out or enforce the terms and conditions of the Stipulation have been stayed until otherwise ordered by the Court; (ii) Plaintiffs and all other Walmart stockholders are barred and enjoined from commencing, prosecuting, instituting, instigating, facilitating, asserting, maintaining, or in any way participating in the commencement or prosecution of any action asserting any Released Plaintiffs' Claims against any Released Defendants' Persons; and (iii) Defendants, the Special Litigation Committee, and Walmart are barred and enjoined from commencing, prosecuting, instituting, instigating, facilitating, asserting, maintaining, or in any way participating in the commencement or prosecution of any action asserting any Released Defendants' Claims against any Released Plaintiffs' Persons.

HOW WILL THE ATTORNEYS BE PAID?

71.Plaintiffs' Counsel have not received any payment for their services in pursuing the claims asserted in the Action, nor have Plaintiffs' Counsel been reimbursed for their out-of-pocket expenses. Plaintiffs' Counsel invested their own resources for pursuing the claims asserted on a contingency basis, meaning they would only recover their expenses and be compensated for their time if they created benefits through this litigation. In light of the risks undertaken in pursuing the Action on a contingency basis and the benefits created for Walmart and its stockholders through the Settlement and the prosecution of the claims asserted, Plaintiffs' Counsel intend to petition the Court for an award of attorneys' fees and litigation expenses to be paid from (and out of) the Settlement Fund. Plaintiffs' Counsel's fee and expense application will seek an award of attorneys' fees in an amount not to exceed 20% of the Settlement Fund, net of Court-awarded litigation expenses, plus payment of litigation expenses in an amount not to exceed $600,000.

72.The Court will determine the amount of any attorney fee and expense award (the "Fee and Expense Award"). Any Court-approved Fee and Expense Award will be paid from the Settlement Fund. Walmart stockholders are not personally liable for any such fees or expenses.

WHEN AND WHERE WILL THE SETTLEMENT FAIRNESS HEARING BE HELD? DO I HAVE THE RIGHT TO APPEAR AT THE SETTLEMENT FAIRNESS HEARING? MAY I OBJECT TO THE SETTLEMENT AND SPEAK AT THE HEARING IF I DON'T LIKE THE SETTLEMENT?

73.The Court will consider the Settlement and all matters related to the Settlement at the Settlement Fairness Hearing. The Settlement Fairness Hearing will be held before Vice Chancellor J. Travis Laster on December 20, 2024, at 1:30 p.m., in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, Leonard L. Williams Justice Center, 500 North King Street, Wilmington, DE 19801.

74.At the Settlement Fairness Hearing, the Court will, among other things: (i) determine whether Plaintiffs and Plaintiffs' Counsel have adequately represented the interests of Walmart; (ii) determine whether the proposed Settlement on the terms and conditions provided for in the Stipulation is fair, reasonable, and adequate to Walmart, and should be approved by the Court; (iii) determine whether a Judgment, substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D to the Stipulation, should

be entered dismissing the Action with prejudice; (iv) consider the application by Plaintiffs' Counsel for an award of attorneys' fees and litigation expenses; (v) consider any objections to the Settlement or the application by Plaintiffs' Counsel for an award of attorneys' fees and litigation expenses; and (vi) consider any other matters that may properly be brought before the Court in connection with the Settlement.

75.Please Note: The Court has reserved the right to adjourn the Settlement Fairness Hearing or any adjournment thereof, including the consideration of the application for attorneys' fees and expenses, without further notice of any kind other than by oral announcement at the Settlement Fairness Hearing or any adjournment thereof. The Court has further reserved the right to approve the Stipulation and the Settlement, at or after the Settlement Fairness Hearing, with such modifications as may be consented to by the Parties and without further notice to Walmart stockholders. The Settlement Fairness Hearing may be converted to a hearing by Zoom or telephone, in which case information about how to attend the hearing remotely will be provided on the docket. You should monitor the Court's docket and the websites of Plaintiffs' Counsel, as indicated in paragraph 82 below, before making plans to attend the Settlement Fairness Hearing. You may also confirm the date and time of the Settlement Fairness Hearing by contacting Plaintiffs' Counsel as indicated in paragraph 82 below.

Objections must be in writing and filed with the Register in Chancery at the address set forth below on or before December 5, 2024.
