Such Registration Statement became effective upon filing pursuant to Rule 462(e) under the Act. No order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement is in effect, and no proceedings for such purpose are pending before or, to the Company’s knowledge, threatened by the Commission. The Company may have filed with the Commission, as part of an amendment to the Registration Statement or pursuant to Rule 424(b), one or more preliminary prospectus supplements relating to the Securities, each of which has previously been furnished to you. The Company will file with the Commission a final prospectus supplement relating to the Securities in accordance with Rule 424(b). As filed, such final prospectus supplement shall comply in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Act and the rules thereunder, and, except to the extent the Representatives shall agree in writing to a modification, shall be in all substantive respects in the form furnished to you prior to the Effective Time or, to the extent not completed at the Effective Time, shall contain only such specific additional information and other changes (beyond that contained in the Base Prospectus and any Preliminary Prospectus) as the Company has advised you, prior to the Effective Time, will be included or made therein. The Registration Statement, at the Effective Time, meets the requirements set forth in Rule 415(a)(1)(x). The initial effective date of the Registration Statement was not earlier than the date three years before the Effective Time relating to the Securities.

(f) The Company shall have requested and caused Ernst & Young LLP to have furnished to the Representatives, on or prior to the date of the Terms Agreement and on the Closing Date, letters, (which may refer to letters previously delivered to one or more of the Representatives), dated respectively as of the date of delivery thereof and as of the Closing Date, in form and substance satisfactory to the Representatives, confirming that they are independent accountants within the meaning of the Act and the Exchange Act and the respective applicable rules and regulations adopted by the Commission thereunder, and containing statements and information of the type ordinarily included in accountants’ “comfort letters” to underwriters with respect to the financial statements and certain financial information contained in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Final Prospectus; provided that the letter delivered on the Closing Date shall use a “cut-off date” not earlier than the date hereof.

(g) Subsequent to the date of the Terms Agreement or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof) and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), there shall not have occurred any change in the condition, financial or otherwise, or in the earnings, business or operations of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, from that set forth

in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto) that, in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives, is so material and adverse as to make it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus.

(h) Subsequent to the date of the Terms Agreement or, if earlier, the dates as of which information is given in the Registration Statement (exclusive of any amendment thereof) and the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto), there shall not have occurred any downgrading, nor shall any notice have been given of any intended or potential downgrading or of any review for a possible change that does not indicate the direction of the possible change, in the rating accorded the Company or any of the debt securities of the Company by Standard and Poor’s Rating Services, a division of The XxXxxx-Xxxx Companies, Inc., or Xxxxx’x Investors Service, Inc. that, in the reasonable judgment of the Representatives, makes it impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Registration Statement, the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus.

(i) Prior to the Closing Date, the Company shall have furnished to the Representatives such further information, certificates and documents as the Representatives may reasonably request.

If any of the conditions specified in this Section 6 shall not have been fulfilled when and as provided in this Agreement, or if any of the opinions and certificates mentioned above or elsewhere in this Agreement shall not be reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Representatives and counsel for the Underwriters, this Agreement and all obligations of the Underwriters hereunder may be canceled at, or at any time prior to, the Closing Date by the Representatives. Notice of such cancellation shall be given to the Company in writing or by telephone or facsimile confirmed in writing.

The documents required to be delivered by this Section 6 shall be delivered at the office of counsel for the Underwriters, at the address set forth in the Terms Agreement, on the Closing Date.

7. Payment of Expenses. If this Agreement shall be terminated by the Underwriters, or any of them, because of any failure or refusal on the part of the Company to comply with the terms or to fulfill any of the conditions of this Agreement, or if for any reason the Company shall be unable to perform its obligations under this Agreement, the Company will reimburse the Underwriters severally through the Representatives on demand, for all out-of-pocket expenses (including the fees and disbursements of their counsel) reasonably incurred by such Underwriters in connection with this Agreement or the offering contemplated hereunder.

8. Indemnification and Contribution.

(a) The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless each Underwriter and each person, if any, who controls any Underwriter within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act and each of your affiliates within the meaning of Rule 405 from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including, without

limitation, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with defending or investigating any such action or claim) caused by (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement for the registration of the Securities as originally filed or in any amendment thereof, or caused any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein not misleading, or (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Disclosure Package, or the Final Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are caused by any such untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use therein. The obligations of the Company under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the Company may otherwise have.

(b) Each Underwriter severally and not jointly agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signs the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from the Company to each Underwriter, but only with reference to information relating to such Underwriter furnished to the Company in writing by or on behalf of such Underwriter through the Representatives expressly for use in the documents referred to in the foregoing indemnity. The obligations of the Underwriters under this Section 8 shall be in addition to any liability which the Underwriters may otherwise have.

(c) In case any proceeding (including any governmental investigation) shall be instituted involving any person in respect of which indemnity may be sought pursuant to this Section 8, such person (the “indemnified party”) shall promptly notify the person against whom such indemnity may be sought (the “indemnifying party”) in writing and the indemnifying party, upon request of the indemnified party, shall retain counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party to represent the indemnified party and any others the indemnifying party may designate in such proceeding and shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel related to such proceeding. In any such proceeding, any indemnified party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party unless (i) the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have

mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (ii) the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the indemnifying party and the indemnified party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. It is understood that the indemnifying party shall not, in respect of the legal expenses of any indemnified party in connection with any proceeding or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one separate firm (in addition to any local counsel) for all such indemnified parties and that all such fees and expenses shall be reimbursed as they are incurred. Such firm shall be designated in writing by the indemnified party, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(a), and by the Company, in the case of parties indemnified pursuant to Section 8(b). The indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent, but if settled with such consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff, the indemnifying party agrees to indemnify the indemnified party from and against any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party shall have requested an indemnifying party to reimburse the indemnified party for fees and expenses of counsel as contemplated by the second and third sentences of this paragraph, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if (i) such settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and (ii) such indemnifying party shall not have reimbursed the indemnified party in accordance with such request prior to the date of such settlement. No indemnifying party shall, without the prior written consent of the indemnified party, effect any settlement of any pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which any indemnified party is or could have been a party and indemnity could have been sought hereunder by such indemnified party, unless such settlement (i) includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party, from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding and (ii) does not include any statement as to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any indemnified party.

(d) To the extent the indemnification provided for in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 8 is unavailable to an indemnified party or insufficient in respect of any losses, claims, damages or liabilities referred to therein, then each indemnifying party under such paragraph, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party thereunder, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (i) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and by the Underwriters on the other from the offering of the Securities or (ii) if the allocation provided by clause (i) is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only such relative benefits but also the relative fault of the Company on the one hand and of the Underwriters on the other in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand in connection with the offering of the Securities shall be deemed to be in the same respective proportions as the total net proceeds from the offering of the Securities (before deducting expenses) received by the Company and the total underwriting discounts and commissions received by the Underwriters, in each case as set forth in the table on the cover of the Final Prospectus, bear to the aggregate offering price of the

Securities. The relative fault of the Company on the one hand and the Underwriters on the other hand shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or the omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Underwriters and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission. The Underwriters’ respective obligations to contribute pursuant to this Section 8 are several in proportion to their respective underwriting obligations and not joint. The Company and the Underwriters agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 8 were determined by pro rata allocation or any other method of allocation which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to above. The amount paid or payable by an indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages and liabilities referred to above in this paragraph (d) shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth above, any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with investigating or defending any such action or claim. Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 8, no Underwriter shall be required to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total price at which the Securities underwritten by it and distributed to the public were offered to the public exceeds the amount of any damages that such Underwriter has otherwise been required to pay by reason of such untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. The remedies provided for in this Section 8 are not exclusive and shall not limit any rights or remedies which may otherwise be available to any indemnified party at law or in equity.

(e) For purposes of this Section 8, each person who controls an Underwriter within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act and any other affiliate (within the meaning of Rule 405) of any Underwriter shall have the same rights to contribution as such Underwriter, and each person who controls the Company within the meaning of either the Act or the Exchange Act, each officer of the Company who shall have signed the Registration Statement and each director of the Company shall have the same rights to contribution as the Company, subject in each case to the applicable terms and conditions of paragraph (d) of this Section 8.

9. Default. (a) If any one or more Underwriters shall fail to purchase and pay for any of the Securities agreed to be purchased by such Underwriter or Underwriters hereunder and such failure to purchase shall constitute a default in the performance of its or their obligations under this Agreement, the Representatives may in their discretion arrange for the purchase of such Securities by themselves or another party or other parties satisfactory to the Company on the terms contained in this Agreement. If, within 36 hours after any such default by any Underwriter, the Representatives do not arrange for the purchase of such Securities, then the Company shall be entitled to a further period of 36 hours within which to procure another party or other parties satisfactory to the Representatives to purchase such Securities on such terms. If another party or other parties become obligated or agree to purchase the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter, either the Representatives or the Company may postpone the Closing Date for up to seven days in order to effect any changes that in the opinion of counsel for the Company or counsel for the Underwriters may be necessary in the Registration Statement and

the Final Prospectus or in any other document or arrangement, and the Company agrees to file promptly any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus that effects any such changes. As used in this Agreement, the term “Underwriter” includes, for all purposes of this Agreement unless the context otherwise requires, any person not listed in the Underwriting Agreement that, pursuant to this Section 9, purchases Securities that a defaulting Underwriter agreed but failed to purchase.

(b) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the Representatives and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of such Securities that remains unpurchased does not exceed one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, then the Company shall have the right to require the remaining Underwriters to purchase (in the respective proportions which the amount of Securities set forth opposite their names in the Terms Agreement bears to the aggregate amount of Securities set forth opposite the names of all the remaining Underwriters) the Securities which the defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters agreed but failed to purchase for which such arrangements have not been made; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

(c) If, after giving effect to any arrangements for the purchase of the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters by the Representatives and the Company as provided in paragraph (a) above, the aggregate principal amount of the Securities that remains unpurchased exceeds one-eleventh of the aggregate principal amount of all the Securities, as referred to in paragraph (b) above, or if the Company shall not exercise the right described in paragraph (b) above to require non-defaulting Underwriters to purchase the Securities of a defaulting Underwriter or Underwriters, then this Agreement shall thereupon terminate, without liability on the part of any non-defaulting Underwriter or the Company, except for the expenses to be borne by the Company and the Underwriters as provided in Section 5 hereof and the indemnity and contribution agreements in Section 8 hereof; but nothing herein shall relieve a defaulting Underwriter from liability for its default.

10. Termination. This Agreement shall be subject to termination by notice given to the Company prior to delivery of and payment for the Securities, if at any time prior to such delivery and payment there shall have occurred any (i) suspension or material limitation of trading generally on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, (ii) suspension of trading of any securities of the Company on the Nasdaq Global Select Market, (iii) declaration of any moratorium on commercial banking activities by Federal or New York State authorities or (iv) outbreak or escalation of hostilities involving the United States or any change in financial markets affecting the United States or any calamity or crisis that, in the Representatives’ reasonable judgment, is material and adverse and makes it, in the Representatives’ reasonable judgment, impracticable or inadvisable to proceed with the offering or delivery of the Securities as contemplated by the Disclosure Package or the Final Prospectus (exclusive of any amendment or supplement thereto). Sections 5(k), 7, 8, 13 and 15 hereof shall survive any termination of this Agreement pursuant to this Section.

11. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. The respective agreements, representations, warranties, indemnities, rights of contribution and other

statements of the Company or its officers and of the Underwriters set forth in or made pursuant to this Agreement will remain in full force and effect, regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any Underwriter or the Company or any of the officers, directors, controlling persons or affiliates referred to in Section 8 hereof, and will survive delivery of and payment for the Securities.

12. Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed or transmitted by any standard form of telecommunication. Notices sent to the Underwriters shall be directed to you at the address indicated in the Terms Agreement; notices sent to the Company shall be directed to it at 0000 Xxxxxxxxxxxx Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxx Xxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx 00000, Attention: General Counsel, Telephone: (000) 000-0000, Facsimile: (000) 000-0000.

13. Parties. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon you and the Company, and their respective successors. Nothing expressed or mentioned in this Agreement is intended or shall be construed as given to any person, firm or corporation, other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and the controlling persons and officers and directors referred to in Section 8 hereof and their heirs and legal representatives, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or in respect of this Agreement or any provision herein contained. This Agreement and all conditions and provisions hereof are intended to be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties and their respective successors and said controlling persons and officers and directors and their heirs and legal representatives, and for the benefit of no other person, firm or corporation. No purchaser of Securities from any Underwriter shall be deemed to be a successor by reason merely of such purchase.

14. Integration. This Agreement, including the Terms Agreements, supersedes all prior agreements and understandings (whether written or oral) between the Company and the Underwriters, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof.

15. Governing Law. This Agreement, including the Terms Agreement, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York applicable to agreements made and to be performed in such State.

16. Waiver of Jury Trial. The Company hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all right to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, each Terms Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

17. Counterparts. Each Terms Agreement may be signed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Form of Opinion of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special United States counsel to Google Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Company’s offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form X-0 (Xx. 000- ), xx x[xxxxxx] aggregate principal amount of [interest rate]% Notes due [year] (the “Securities”) to be issued under an indenture dated as of [date] (the “Indenture”) between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”). Such registration statement, as amended as of its most recent effective date ([date]), insofar as it relates to the Securities (as determined for purposes of Rule 430B(f)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Registration Statement;” the related prospectus dated [date] included in the Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act, but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Base Prospectus;” the preliminary prospectus supplement dated [date], as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement;” and the related prospectus supplement dated [date], as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Final Prospectus Supplement.” The Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Pricing Prospectus,” and the Base Prospectus and the Final Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Final Prospectus.” This opinion letter is furnished pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Underwriting Agreement dated [date], in the form in which it was incorporated into the Terms Agreement dated [date] (together, the “Underwriting Agreement”) between the Company and the several underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”).

In arriving at the opinions expressed below, we have reviewed the following documents:

(a)

an executed copy of the Underwriting Agreement;

(b)

the Registration Statement and the documents incorporated by reference therein;

(c)

the Pricing Prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference therein and the document attached as Annex I hereto (the “Disclosure Package”);

(d)

the Final Prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference therein;

(e)

a facsimile copy of the Securities in global form as executed by the Company and authenticated by the Trustee;

B1-1

(f)

an executed copy of the Indenture and the [Officer’s Certificate] [indenture[s] supplemental thereto] dated [date], establishing the terms of the Securities in accordance with Sections 2.01 and 3.01 of the Indenture; and

(g)

the documents delivered to you by the Company at the closing pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement, including copies of the Company’s Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and Amended and Restated Bylaws (the “Bylaws”) certified by the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and the corporate secretary of the Company, respectively.

In addition, we have reviewed the originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of all such corporate records of the Company and such other documents, and we have made such investigations of law, as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed below.

In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies. In addition, we have assumed and have not verified the accuracy as to factual matters of each document we have reviewed (including, without limitation, the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company in the Underwriting Agreement).

Based on the foregoing, and subject to the further assumptions and qualifications set forth below, it is our opinion that:

1. The Company is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

2. The Company has corporate power to own its properties and conduct its business as described in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus (including the documents incorporated by reference therein), and the Company has corporate power to issue the Securities, to enter into the Underwriting Agreement and the Indenture and to perform its obligations thereunder.

3. The execution and delivery of the Indenture have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and the Indenture has been duly executed and delivered by the Company, and qualified under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”), and is a valid, binding and enforceable agreement of the Company.

4. The execution and delivery of the Securities have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and the Securities have been duly executed and delivered by the Company and are the valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the Company, entitled to the benefits of the Indenture.

B1-2

5. The execution and delivery of the Underwriting Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action of the Company, and the Underwriting Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Company.

6. The issuance and sale of the Securities to the Underwriters pursuant to the Underwriting Agreement do not, and the performance by the Company of its obligations in the Underwriting Agreement, the Indenture and the Securities will not, (a) require any filing, consent, approval, authorization, registration or qualification of or with any governmental authority of the United States or the State of New York that in our experience normally would be applicable to general business entities with respect to such issuance, sale or performance, except such as have been obtained or effected under the Securities Act and the Trust Indenture Act (but we express no opinion relating to any state securities or Blue Sky laws and we have assumed for purposes of the foregoing opinion that the Company is not required to make any filing pursuant to Rule 433(d) under the Securities Act because a free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) was prepared or used by the Underwriters), (b) result in a breach of any of the terms and provisions of, or constitute a default under, any of the agreements of the Company that were filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement or incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement and filed pursuant to Item 601(b)(10) of Regulation S-K, or a violation of the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or contravene (based solely on inquiry of [name], [title] of the Company) any judgment, decree or order applicable to the Company of any court or other governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Company or (c) result in a violation of any United States federal or New York State law or published rule or regulation that in our experience normally would be applicable to general business entities with respect to such issuance, sale or performance (but we express no opinion relating to the United States federal securities laws or any state securities or Blue Sky laws).

7. The Company is not and, after giving effect to the offering and sale of the Securities and the application of the proceeds thereof as described in the Disclosure Package and the Final Prospectus, will not be, required to register as an “investment company” as such term is defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

8. The statements under the headings “Description of [Securities]” and “Description of Debt Securities” in the Pricing Prospectus considered together with the document attached as Annex I hereto and the Final Prospectus, insofar as such statements purport to summarize certain provisions of the Securities and the Indenture, provide a fair summary of such provisions.

9. The statements under the heading [“Certain United States Federal Tax Considerations”] in the Pricing Prospectus and the Final Prospectus, insofar as such statements purport to summarize certain federal tax laws of the United States, constitute a fair summary of the principal U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the Securities.

Insofar as the foregoing opinions relate to the valid existence and good standing of the Company, they are based solely on a certificate of good standing received from the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and on a telephonic confirmation from such Secretary of State. Insofar as the foregoing opinions relate to the validity, binding effect or enforceability

Form of Negative Comfort Letter of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx Xxxxx & Xxxxxxxx LLP

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special United States counsel to Google Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Company’s offering pursuant to a registration statement on Form X-0 (Xx. 000- ), xx x[xxxxxx] aggregate principal amount of [interest rate]% Notes due [year] (the “Securities”) to be issued under an indenture dated as of [date] (the “Indenture”) between the Company and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., as trustee (the “Trustee”). Such registration statement, as amended as of its most recent effective date ([date]), insofar as it relates to the Securities (as determined for purposes of Rule 430B(f)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)), but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein and Exhibit 25, is herein called the “Registration Statement;” the related prospectus dated [date] included in the Registration Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act, but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Base Prospectus;” the preliminary prospectus supplement dated [date], as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Preliminary Prospectus Supplement;” and the related prospectus supplement dated [date], as filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, but excluding the documents incorporated by reference therein, is herein called the “Final Prospectus Supplement.” The Base Prospectus and the Preliminary Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Pricing Prospectus,” and the Base Prospectus and the Final Prospectus Supplement together are herein called the “Final Prospectus.” This letter is furnished pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Underwriting Agreement dated [date], in the form in which it was incorporated into the Terms Agreement dated [date] (together, the “Underwriting Agreement”) between the Company and the several underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”).

Because the primary purpose of our professional engagement was not to establish or confirm factual matters or financial, accounting or statistical information, and because many determinations involved in the preparation of the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference in each of them and the document attached as Annex I hereto are of a wholly or partially non-legal character or relate to legal matters outside the scope of our opinion letter to you of even date herewith, we are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for the accuracy, completeness or fairness of the statements contained in the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference in each of them or the document attached as Annex I hereto (except to the extent expressly set forth in numbered paragraphs 8 and 9 of our opinion letter to you of even date herewith), and we make no representation that we have independently verified the accuracy, completeness or fairness of such statements (except as aforesaid). We also are not passing upon and do not assume any responsibility for ascertaining whether or when any of the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, the documents incorporated by reference in each

B2-1

of them or the document attached as Annex I hereto was conveyed to any person for purposes of Rule 159 under the Securities Act.

However, in the course of our acting as special United States counsel to the Company in connection with its preparation of the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus and the document attached as Annex I hereto, we participated in conferences and telephone conversations with representatives of the Company, representatives of the independent public accountants for the Company, your representatives and representatives of your counsel, during which conferences and conversations the contents of the Registration Statement, the Pricing Prospectus, the Final Prospectus, portions of certain of the documents incorporated by reference in each of them and the document attached as Annex I hereto, and related matters were discussed, and we reviewed certain corporate records and documents furnished to us by the Company.

Based on our participation in such conferences and conversations and our review of such records and documents as described above, our understanding of the U.S. federal securities laws and the experience we have gained in our practice thereunder, we advise you that:

(a) The Registration Statement (except the financial statements and schedules and other financial and accounting data included therein, as to which we express no view), at the time it became effective, and the Final Prospectus (except as aforesaid), as of the date thereof, appeared on their face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Act and the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder. In addition, we do not know of any contracts or other documents of a character required to be filed as exhibits to the Registration Statement or required to be described in the Registration Statement or the Final Prospectus that are not filed or described as required.

(b) The documents incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement and the Final Prospectus (except the financial statements and schedules and other financial and accounting data and management’s report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included therein, as to which we express no view), as of the respective dates of their filing with the Commission, appeared on their face to be appropriately responsive in all material respects to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder.

(c) No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Registration Statement, including the documents incorporated by reference therein (except the financial statements and schedules and other financial and accounting data and management’s report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included therein, as to which we express no view), at the time it became effective, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading.

B2-2

(d) No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Pricing Prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference therein, considered together with the document attached as Annex I hereto (except in each case the financial statements and schedules and other financial and accounting data and management’s report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included therein, as to which we express no view), at the time of execution of the Underwriting Agreement, contained an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

(e) No information has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the Final Prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference therein (except in each case the financial statements and schedules and other financial and accounting data and management’s report on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included therein, as to which we express no view), as of the date thereof or hereof, contained or contains an untrue statement of a material fact or omitted or omits to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

We confirm to you that (a) based solely upon email confirmation of receipt of the filing and Rule 462(e) under the Securities Act, the Registration Statement is effective under the Securities Act, and (b) based solely upon a telephonic confirmation from a representative of the Commission, no stop order with respect thereto has been issued by the Commission, and to the best of our knowledge, no proceeding for that purpose has been instituted or threatened by the Commission.

In addition, we confirm to you that, based solely on inquiry of [name], [title] of the Company, we know of no legal or governmental proceedings to which the Company is a party that are currently pending before any adjudicative tribunal or that have been threatened by a written communication manifesting an intention to initiate such proceedings received by the management of the Company or by us that are required to be disclosed in the Registration Statement or the documents incorporated by reference therein that are not disclosed in the Pricing Prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference therein and the document attached as Annex I hereto and the Final Prospectus, including the documents incorporated by reference therein.

We are furnishing this letter to you, as Representatives of the Underwriters, solely for the benefit of the Underwriters in their capacity as such in connection with the offering of the Securities. This letter is not to be relied on by or furnished to any other person or used, circulated, quoted or otherwise referred to for any other purpose. We assume no obligation to advise you, or to make any investigations, as to any legal developments or factual matters arising subsequent to the date hereof that might affect the views expressed herein.

EXHIBIT B-3

Form of Opinion of Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx

Dear Sirs

GOOGLE IRELAND HOLDINGS (THE “COMPANY”)

We have acted as Irish solicitors to Google Ireland Holdings, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Google Inc. (“Google”).

In this opinion, we refer to Google Ireland Holdings as the “Company”.

1	BASIS OF OPINION

1.1	For the purposes of giving this opinion we have examined:

1.1.1

the “Letter of Status” issued by the Irish Companies Registration Office on [date] (the “Letter of Status”);

1.1.2

searches (the “Searches”) made on [date] at the Companies Registration Office, in the Register of Winding Up Petitions at the Central Office of the High Court and at the Judgments Office in the Central Office of the High Court against the Company; and

1.1.3

the Memorandum and Articles of Association of the Company as registered by the Irish Companies Registration Office on 12 February 2008.

1.2

We have made no searches or enquiries concerning, and we have not examined any contracts, instruments or documents entered into by or affecting the Company or any other person, or any corporate records of the aforesaid, save for those searches, enquiries, contracts, instruments, documents or corporate records specified as being made or examined in this opinion.

1.3	We express no opinion and make no representation or warranty as to any matter of fact.

1.4

We have not investigated the laws of any country other than Ireland and this opinion is given only with respect to the laws of Ireland in effect at the date of this opinion. We have assumed, without enquiry, that there is nothing in the laws of any other jurisdiction which would or might affect the opinions as stated herein.

1.5	This opinion is to be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of Ireland.

1.6

This opinion is delivered to you pursuant to section 6(c) of the Underwriting Agreement dated [date], in the form in which it was incorporated into the Terms Agreement dated [date] between Google Inc. and the several underwriters named in Schedule I thereto (the “Underwriters”), for whom you serve as Representatives, and is strictly limited to the matters stated herein and does not extend to, and is not to be read as extending by implication to, any other matter. It is only for the Underwriters’ use and it may not be

B3-1

relied upon by any other person, firm or corporation whatsoever, or used for any other purpose, or quoted or referred to in any public document, or filed with any government agency or other person, nor may its existence or contents be disclosed to any other person, firm or corporation without, in any such case, our written consent.

1.7	We assume no obligation to update the opinions set forth in this letter.

2	ASSUMPTIONS

For the purposes of giving this opinion we have assumed:

2.1	the genuineness of all signatures and seals;

2.2	the authenticity and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals;

2.3	the completeness and conformity to originals of all documents supplied to us as certified, conformed or photo static copies or received by us by facsimile transmission and the authenticity of the originals of such documents;

2.4

the information disclosed by the Letter of Status and the Searches was accurate as of the date of the Letter of Status and the date the Searches were made and has not been altered and that the Letter of Status and the Searches did not fail to disclose any information which had been delivered for registration but did not appear from the information available at the time they were issued or made or which ought to have been delivered for registration at that time but had not been so delivered and that no additional matters would have been disclosed by searches being carried out since that time;

2.5	the truth of all representations and information given to us in reply to any queries we have made which we have considered necessary for the purpose of giving this opinion; and

2.6	that there are no agreements or arrangements in existence that have not been disclosed to us which in any way bear upon or are inconsistent with the contents of this opinion.

3	OPINION

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set out in this letter we are of the opinion that, as of the date of the Searches, so far as the laws of Ireland are concerned:

3.1

the Company is a company duly incorporated and validly existing under the laws of Ireland with unlimited liability and unlimited duration and possesses the capacity to xxx and be sued in its own name and has the power and authority to own its assets and to conduct the business of a holding, management and trading investment company. Based upon the Letter of Status and the Searches, its registration status with the Irish Registry of Companies is designated as “normal” and no steps have been taken to appoint a receiver or examiner to or to wind up the Company.

B3-2

4	QUALIFICATIONS

This opinion is subject to the following qualifications:

4.1	our opinion at paragraph 3.1 above should be read subject to the qualifications that:

(i)

a search at the Companies Registration Office is not capable of revealing whether or not a winding up petition or a petition for the appointment of an examiner has been presented; and

(ii)

a search at the Registry of Winding up Petitions at the Central Office of the High Court is not capable of revealing whether or not a receiver has been appointed.

Whilst each of the making of a winding up order, the making of an order for the appointment of an examiner and the appointment of a receiver may be revealed by a search at the Companies Registration Office it may not be filed at the Companies Registration Office immediately and, therefore, our searches at the Companies Registration Office may not have revealed such matters.

Yours faithfully

XXXXXXXX XXXXXX XXXXXXXX
