 (Reverse of Note) 

PHILIP MORRIS INTERNATIONAL INC. 

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes or other evidences of indebtedness (hereinafter called the
“Securities”) of the Company of the series hereinafter specified, which series is limited in aggregate principal amount to $750,000,000 (except as provided in the Indenture hereinafter mentioned), all such Securities issued and to be
issued under an Indenture dated as of April 25, 2008 between the Company and HSBC Bank USA, National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and all other indentures supplemental thereto reference
is hereby made for a statement of the rights and limitations of rights thereunder of the Holders of the Securities and of the rights, obligations, duties and immunities of the Trustee for each series of Securities and of the Company, and the terms
upon which the Securities are and are to be authenticated and delivered. As provided in the Indenture, the Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may mature at
different times, may bear interest, if any, at different rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions, if any, may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds, if any, may be subject to different covenants and Events of
Default and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture provided or permitted. This Note is one of a series of the Securities designated therein as 2.750% Notes due 2026 (the “Notes”). 

Section 1010 of the Indenture shall be applicable to the Notes, except that (i) the term “Holder,” when used in
Section 1010 of the Indenture, shall mean the beneficial owner of a Note or any person holding on behalf or for the account of the beneficial owner of a Note; (ii) the following language shall replace subsection (k) to
Section 1010 of the Indenture “any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed pursuant to the provisions of Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code” and (iii) the following language shall be included as subsection
(l) to Section 1010 of the Indenture “any combination of items (a), (b), (c), (d), (e), (f), (g), (h), (i), (j) and (k).” 

Prior to November 25, 2025 (the date that is three months prior to the scheduled maturity date for the Notes), the Company may, at its
option, redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be
redeemed and (ii) the sum of the present values of each remaining scheduled payment of principal and interest that would be due if such Notes matured on November 25, 2025 (exclusive of interest accrued to the date of redemption) discounted
to the redemption date, on a semiannual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), at a rate equal to the applicable Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 20 basis points plus, in either case, accrued and unpaid interest, if
any, thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. 
 On or after November 25, 2025 (the date that is three months prior to the
scheduled maturity date for the Notes), the Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes, in whole at any time or in part from time to time (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) at a redemption price equal to 100% of
the principal amount of the Notes to be 







 
redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to, but excluding, the redemption date. 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the U.S. Treasury security or securities selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having
an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed (assuming for this purpose that the Notes matured on November 25, 2025) that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with
customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of a comparable maturity to the remaining term of such Notes. 

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation or (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of
all such quotations. 
 “Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company.

 “Reference Treasury Dealer” means each of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Goldman,
Sachs & Co. and Mizuho Securities USA Inc., or their affiliates, which are primary United States government securities dealers and one other leading primary U.S. government securities dealer in New York City reasonably designated by the
Company; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S. government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company will substitute therefor another Primary
Treasury Dealer. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any
redemption date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent
Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 2:00 pm New York time on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date. 

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the rate per annum equal to the semiannual equivalent yield to maturity
or interpolated maturity (on a day count basis) of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (such price expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for such
redemption date. 
 The Company will, or will cause the Trustee or Paying Agent on its behalf to, mail notice of a redemption to Holders of
the Notes to be redeemed by first-class mail (or otherwise transmit in accordance with applicable procedures of the Depositary) at least 30 and not more than 60 days prior to the date fixed for redemption. Unless the Company defaults in the payment
of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on the Notes or any portion thereof called for redemption. On or before the applicable redemption date, the Company will deposit with the Trustee, funds
sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and 







 
(unless the redemption date shall be an Interest Payment Date) accrued and unpaid interest on, such Notes to be redeemed on that redemption date. If fewer than all of the Notes are to be
redeemed, the Notes to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee by lot, pro rata or by such method as the Trustee shall deem fair and appropriate in each case in accordance with the applicable procedures of the Depositary. The Trustee shall not
be responsible for calculating the “make-whole” premium. 
 The Company may redeem the Notes prior to maturity in whole, but not
in part, on not more than 60 days’ notice and not less than 30 days’ notice at a redemption price equal to the principal amount of such Notes plus any accrued interest and additional amounts to the date fixed for redemption if: 

 

	 	•	 	as a result of a change in or amendment to the tax laws, regulations or rulings of the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority of or in the United States or any change in official position
regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings (including a holding by a court of competent jurisdiction in the United States) that is announced or becomes effective on or after February 25, 2016, the Company
has or will become obligated to pay additional amounts with respect to the Notes as described in Section 1010 of the Indenture, or 

  

	 	•	 	on or after February 25, 2016, any action is taken by a taxing authority of, or any decision is rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction in, the United States or any political subdivision or taxing authority
of or in the United States, including any of those actions specified in the bullet point above, whether or not such action is taken or decision is rendered with respect to the Company, or any change, amendment, application or interpretation is
officially proposed, which, in any such case, in the written opinion of independent legal counsel of recognized standing, will result in a material probability that the Company will become obligated to pay additional amounts with respect to the
Notes, 

 and the Company in its business judgment determines that such obligations cannot be avoided by the use of reasonable measures
available to the Company. 
 If the Company exercises its option to redeem the Notes for tax reasons, the Company will deliver to the
Trustee a certificate signed by an authorized officer stating that it is entitled to redeem the Notes and the written opinion of independent legal counsel if required. 

The Indenture contains provisions for defeasance at any time of the entire principal of all the Securities of any series upon compliance by
the Company with certain conditions set forth therein. 
 If an Event of Default (other than an Event of Default described in
Section 501(4) or 501(5) of the Indenture) with respect to the Notes shall occur and be continuing, then either the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series then Outstanding (or, if
such default is not applicable to all series of the Securities, the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then Outstanding Securities of all series to 







 
which it is applicable) (in each case voting as a single class) may declare the entire principal amount of the Securities of all series so affected due and payable in the manner and with effect
provided in the Indenture. If an Event of Default specified in Section 501(4) or 501(5) occurs with respect to the Company, all of the unpaid principal amount and accrued interest then Outstanding shall ipso facto become and be
immediately due and payable in the manner with the effect provided in the Indenture without any declaration or other act by the Trustee or any Holder. 

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations
of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Securities under the Indenture at any time by the Company with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Securities of all series of
Securities affected thereby (voting as a single class). The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in aggregate principal amount of the Securities of all series affected thereby at the time Outstanding
(voting as a single class) to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences to the affected series. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note
shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note. 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Company,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Note at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein and in the Indenture prescribed. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, this Note is transferable on the Security Register of the
Company, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company to be maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at any other office or agency of the Company maintained
for that purpose, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or his or her attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon
one or more new Notes, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

The Notes are issuable only in registered form in denominations of $2,000 and any integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof. As provided
in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of a like tenor and of a different authorized denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the
same. 
 No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 







 The Company, the Trustee for the Notes and any agent of the Company or such Trustee may treat
the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for the purpose of receiving payment as herein provided and for all other purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Company, such Trustee nor any such agent
shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 Certain of the Company’s obligations under the Indenture with respect to Notes may be
terminated if the Company irrevocably deposits with the Trustee money or Government Obligations sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on all Notes, as provided in the Indenture. 

This Note shall for all purposes be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York. 

Certain terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture have the meanings set forth therein.
