further, that such Confidential Information is delivered within 15 calendar days of the applicable date required under Clause 4.1.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|4.7 | To the extent that Altria determines, acting reasonably, that it is no longer necessary for it to receive copies of any items of information listed under clause 4.1 in order to satisfy its obligations under any
Financial Reporting and Planning Requirements, Altria promptly shall notify the Company in writing, which notice shall relieve the Company of the obligation to provide such items.
|--- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

|6. | CHANGE OF LAW
|-- | -------------



|6.1 | If there is any change in law or applicable regulations which would materially affect the operation of this Agreement or prohibit or prevent the Company from complying with its obligations under clause 4.1, the parties
agree to enter into bona fide negotiations with a view to agreeing such amendments to this Agreement (to the extent legally possible) as the parties shall in good faith determine to be necessary to comply with such changes and to ensure that,

|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|6.2 | The parties acknowledge and agree that clause 6.1 is fully binding in honor and not an agreement to negotiate, such that any invalidity or unenforceability of clause 6.1 shall not result in the invalidity or
unenforceability of any other provision of this Agreement.
|--- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|7. | DURATION
|-- | --------



|7.1 | All rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall be conditioned upon Completion occurring. This Agreement shall terminate automatically if the Transaction has been withdrawn or lapsed or if the Co-operation Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms.

|7.2 | From Completion, this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect for so long as Altria continues to account for its interest in the Company using the equity method.

7



---

remedied shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.
| | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|8. | SEVERANCE
|-- | ---------



|8.1 | If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, then such provision shall (so far as it is invalid or unenforceable) be given no effect and shall be deemed not to be included in this Agreement
but without invalidating any of the remaining provisions of this Agreement.
|--- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|8.2 | In the event that any provision of this Agreement becomes wholly or partly void, unenforceable or for any other reason cannot in whole or in part be put into effect, including as a result of a Law, then the remaining
provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected. In such an event, the parties shall cooperate and negotiate in good faith to agree provisions (to replace those which are void, unenforceable or ineffective) which are not void or unenforceable, or
which can otherwise be put into effect and which, as far as possible, are legally and commercially the same as those they replace.
|--- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



|8.3 | In the event that provisions of this Agreement need to be interpreted or supplemented, then the interpretation or supplement shall be completed in good faith in such a way that the spirit, contents and purpose of this
Agreement are adhered to as far as possible.
