prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference before deciding to purchase any Notes. If any of these risks actually occurs, our business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer, and you may lose all or part of your
investment. </I></P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Risks Related to the Notes </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The Notes will be structurally subordinated to all obligations of our existing and future subsidiaries and consolidated affiliated entities. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Notes will not be guaranteed by any of our existing or future subsidiaries and consolidated affiliated entities, who together hold
substantially all of our operating assets and conduct substantially all of our business. Our subsidiaries and consolidated affiliated entities will have no obligation, contingent or otherwise, to pay amounts due under the Notes or to make any funds
available to pay those amounts, whether by dividend, distribution, loan or other payment. The Notes will be structurally subordinated to all indebtedness and other obligations of our subsidiaries and consolidated affiliated entities such that in the
event of insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, dissolution or other winding up of any of our subsidiaries or consolidated affiliated entities, all of that subsidiary&#146;s or consolidated affiliated entity&#146;s creditors (including trade
creditors) and any holders of preferred stock or shares would be entitled to payment in full out of that subsidiary&#146;s or consolidated affiliated entity&#146;s assets before any remaining assets would be available to Baidu, Inc. to make payments
due on the Notes. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">In addition, the indenture governing the Notes will, subject to some limitations, permit these subsidiaries and

entities. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The indenture does not restrict the amount of additional debt that we may incur. </I></B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Notes and the indenture under which the Notes will be issued do not limit the amount of unsecured debt that may be incurred by us or our
subsidiaries or consolidated affiliated entities, and they permit us and certain of our subsidiaries and consolidated affiliated entities to incur secured debt without equally and ratably securing the Notes under specified circumstances. As of
December&nbsp;31, 2017, our total debt was RMB43.6&nbsp;billion (US$6.7 billion), primarily consisting of US$191&nbsp;million in short-term loans, US$1.0&nbsp;billion in long-term loans and US$750.0&nbsp;million of our 3.500% Notes due 2022,
US$1.0&nbsp;billion of our 3.250% Notes due 2018, US$1.0&nbsp;billion of our 2.750% Notes due 2019, US$750.0&nbsp;million of our 3.000% Notes due 2020, US$500.0&nbsp;million of our 4.125% Notes due 2025, US$900.0&nbsp;million of our 2.875% Notes due
2022 and US$600.0&nbsp;million of our 3.625% Notes due 2027. After the completion of this offering, we and our subsidiaries and consolidated affiliated entities may incur additional debt. Our and our subsidiaries&#146; and consolidated affiliated
entities&#146; incurrence of additional debt may have important consequences for you as a holder of the Notes, including making it more difficult for us to satisfy our obligations with respect to the Notes, a loss in the market value of your Notes
and a risk that the credit rating of the Notes is lowered or withdrawn. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The Notes will be effectively subordinated to any of our secured

available cash or cash generated from our subsidiaries&#146; or consolidated affiliated entities&#146; operations or other sources, including borrowings, sales of assets or sales of equity. We may not be able to repurchase the Notes upon a
Triggering Event because we may not have sufficient financial resources to purchase all of the debt securities that are tendered upon a Triggering Event and repay our other indebtedness that may become due. We may require additional financing from
third parties to fund any such purchases, and we may be unable to obtain financing on satisfactory terms or at all. Further, our ability to repurchase the Notes may be limited by law. </P>

York law. Accordingly, the ability of a holder of the Notes to require us to repurchase its Notes as a result of a Triggering Event may be uncertain. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:18pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B><I>The terms of the indenture and the Notes provide only limited protection against significant corporate events that could adversely impact your

upon the occurrence of certain events involving significant corporate transactions, these terms are limited and may not be sufficient to protect your investment in the Notes. For example, we are not required to offer to repurchase all outstanding
Notes upon the occurrence of a change of control event (which event would trigger such a repurchase obligation under our 3.500% Notes due 2022 in the principal amount of US$750&nbsp;million, and our 3.250% Notes due 2018 in the principal amount of
US$1.0 billion). In addition, certain important corporate events, such as merger or consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of the assets, liquidation or dissolution and leveraged recapitalizations, would not, under the indenture that will
govern the Notes, constitute a Triggering Event that would require us to repurchase the Notes, even though those corporate events could adversely affect our capital structure, credit ratings or the value of the Notes. See &#147;Description of the
Notes&#151;Repurchase Upon Triggering Event.&#148; </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The indenture for the Notes also does not: </P>

<TD ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top">To supplement our consolidated financial results presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, we use adjusted EBITDA, a <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-GAAP</FONT> financial measure, in evaluating our performance and
liquidity. We define adjusted EBITDA as operating profit excluding depreciation, amortization (excluding the amortization of licensed copyrights of iQIYI) and share-based compensation expenses. The presentation of this
<FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-GAAP</FONT> financial measure is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In addition, our adjusted EBITDA
may not be comparable to EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA or similarly titled measures utilized by other companies since such other companies may not calculate this <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-GAAP</FONT> financial measure in the same manner as we
do. </TD></TR></TABLE> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">We believe that adjusted EBITDA provides meaningful supplemental information regarding our performance and liquidity by
excluding certain expenses, particularly share-based compensation expenses, that may not be indicative of our operating performance or financial condition from a cash perspective. We believe that both our management and investors benefit from
referring to this <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-GAAP</FONT> financial measure in assessing our performance and when planning and forecasting future periods. This <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-GAAP</FONT> financial measure also
facilitates our management&#146;s internal comparisons to our historical performance and liquidity. We have computed adjusted EBITDA using the same consistent method from quarter to quarter since April&nbsp;1, 2006. We believe that this <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-GAAP</FONT> financial measure is useful to investors in allowing for greater transparency with respect to supplemental information used by our management in its financial and operational decision making. A limitation
of using adjusted EBITDA is that this <FONT STYLE="white-space:nowrap">non-GAAP</FONT> measure excludes interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization (excluding amortization of licensed copyrights of iQIYI), and share-based compensation charges that
have been and will continue to be for the foreseeable future significant expense items in our results of operations. Another limitation of using adjusted EBITDA is that it does not include all items that impact our net cash provided by operating
activities for the period. Our management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from adjusted EBITDA. </P>

this prospectus supplement is based on the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Unless otherwise noted, all translations from RMB to U.S. dollars and from U.S. dollars to
RMB in this prospectus supplement have been made at a rate of RMB6.5063 to US$1.00, the exchange rate in effect as of December&nbsp;29, 2017. We make no representation that any RMB or U.S. dollar amounts could have been, or could be, converted into
U.S. dollars or RMB, as the case may be, at any particular rate, or at all. The PRC government imposes control over its foreign currency reserves in part through direct regulation of the conversion of RMB into foreign exchange and through
restrictions on foreign trade. On March 16, 2018, the exchange rate was RMB6.3300 to US$1.00. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The following table sets forth information

an aggregate principal amount of US$1,000,000,000 and will mature on September 29, 2023, and the 2028 Notes will initially be issued in an aggregate principal amount of US$500,000,000 and will mature on March 29, 2028, unless the 2023 Notes or the
2028 Notes, as the case may be, are redeemed prior to their maturity pursuant to the indenture and the terms thereof. The 2023 Notes will bear interest at the rate of 3.875% per annum and the 2028 Notes will bear interest at the rate of 4.375% per

effected only through entries made on the books of DTC participants acting on behalf of beneficial owners. You will not receive written confirmation from DTC of your purchase. The direct or indirect participants through whom you purchased the Notes
should send you written confirmations providing details of your transactions, as well as periodic statements of your holdings. The direct and indirect participants are responsible for keeping accurate account of the holdings of their customers like

in the global notes, will not be entitled to have Notes registered in your name, will not receive or be entitled to receive physical delivery of Notes in definitive form and will not be considered the owner or holder thereof under the indenture.

credit the accounts of DTC&#146;s direct participants with payment in amounts proportionate to their respective holdings in principal amount of beneficial interest in a security as shown on the records of DTC, unless DTC has reason to believe that
it will not receive payment on the payment date. The underwriters will initially designate the accounts to be credited. Beneficial owners may experience delays in receiving distributions on their Notes because distributions will initially be made to
DTC and they must be transferred through the chain of intermediaries to the beneficial owner&#146;s account. Payments by DTC participants to you will be the responsibility of the DTC participant and not of DTC, the trustee or us. Accordingly, we and

industries contributed approximately 50% of our total online marketing revenues in 2016. Although we have customers located throughout China, we have a more active and larger customer base in coastal regions, reflecting the current general economic
demographics in China. Our customers also include local merchants that act as advertisers or service providers covering businesses such as restaurants, hotels and cinemas, and advertisers of iQiyi, who are counted as part of our online marketing

U.S.&nbsp;dollars in this prospectus is based on the exchange rate set forth in the H.10 statistical release of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System. Except as otherwise stated in this prospectus, all amounts in this prospectus that
are not recorded in our audited consolidated financial statements have been translated from RMB to U.S. dollars and from U.S. dollars to RMB at a rate of RMB6.8832 to US$1.00, the exchange rate in effect as of March&nbsp;31, 2017. All amounts in
this prospectus that are recorded in our audited consolidated financial statements have been translated from RMB to U.S. dollars and from U.S. dollars to RMB at a rate of RMB6.9430 to US$1.00, the exchange rate in effect as of December&nbsp;30,
2016. We make no representation that any RMB or U.S. dollar amounts could have been, or could be, converted into U.S. dollars or RMB, as the case may be, at any particular rate, or at all. The PRC government imposes control over its foreign currency
reserves in part through direct regulation of the conversion of RMB into foreign exchange and through restrictions on foreign trade. On June&nbsp;16, 2017, the exchange rate was RMB6.8097 to US$1.00. </P>

a broker, bank, other financial institution or, in the case of a global security, a depositary. Our obligations, as well as the obligations of the trustee, any registrar, any depositary and any third parties employed by us or the other entities
listed above, run only to persons who are registered as holders of our debt securities, except as may be specifically provided for in a contract governing the debt securities. For example, once we make payment to the registered holder, we have no

name, we will recognize only the bank or broker, or the financial institution that the bank or broker uses to hold the debt securities, as a holder. These intermediary banks, brokers, other financial institutions and depositaries pass along
principal, interest, dividends and other payments, if any, on the debt securities, either because they agree to do so in their customer agreements or because they are legally required to do so. This means that if you are an indirect holder, you will
need to coordinate with the institution through which you hold your interest in a security in order to determine how the provisions involving holders described in this prospectus and any prospectus supplement will actually apply to you. For example,
if the debt security in which you hold a beneficial interest in street name can be repaid at the option of the holder, you cannot redeem it yourself by following the procedures described in the prospectus supplement relating to that security.
Instead, you would need to cause the institution through which you hold your interest to take those actions on your behalf. Your institution may have procedures and deadlines different from or additional to those described in the applicable
