 Long-Term Incentive Plan 
 You will also be eligible to participate in the Long-Term Incentive Plan (LTIP), which is the Company’s executive long-term cash incentive program. The current LTIP performance cycle began on January 1, 2007
and is scheduled to end on December 31, 2009. Your LTIP eligibility will begin on your employment date. Your target opportunity under the LTIP is equal to 150% of your average base salary during the performance cycle. The actual amount you will
receive may be lower or higher depending upon the performance of Kraft Foods Inc. during the performance cycle. It is anticipated that the form of award under this program in the future will be stock-based beginning with the 2008 – 2010
performance cycle. 
 Stock Program 
 Also, you
will be eligible to participate in the Company’s stock award program. Stock awards are typically made on an annual basis, with the next award anticipated to be granted in the first quarter of 2008. The most recent stock program design delivered
100% of equity value in the form of restricted stock with a three-year cliff vest. The Compensation Committee has approved a change to the program beginning in 2008. Going forward, awards will delivered as follows: 50% of equity value in restricted
stock and 50% in stock options. Actual award size is based on individual potential and performance. 
 Sign-On Incentives 
 In recognition of the loss of short-term and long-term incentives from your previous employer, upon hire, you will receive one-time sign-on incentives in the form of cash
and restricted stock as follows: 
  

			
	Cash Sign-On Incentive	  	$500,000 with a two-year repayment agreement
		
	Equity Sign-On Incentive	  	$1,500,000 restricted stock award to vest one-third each year over a three-year period

 If, prior to the end of the two-year repayment period, your employment with the Company ends due to involuntary
termination for reasons other than cause, you will not be required to repay the cash sign-on amount. 
 Similarly, if prior to full vesting of the sign-on
restricted shares granted per this offer letter, your employment with the Company ends due to involuntary termination for reasons other than cause, the value of the total number of unvested shares shall vest on the scheduled vesting dates. The
number of shares that you will receive will be determined based upon the fair market value of Kraft Foods Inc. Common Stock on your date of hire. You will receive dividends on the shares during the vesting period consistent in amount and timing with
that of Common Stock shareholders.
