(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Your salary will be paid up to and including the Termination Date, in accordance with the Company's standard payroll practices. In addition, by the Termination Date, the Company will pay you:

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Within 30 days after the Termination Date, the Company shall also pay you a gross amount compensating any outstanding vacation entitlement, as per Company policy and Company records.

(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to your countersignature of this Agreement, you will receive a payment in the total gross amount of CHF 2'401'909.-- as provided in the supplemental letter dated December 4, 2008 to your employment agreement (the "**Severance Payment**"), subject to the conditions that you fully comply with your obligations to the Company under this Agreement, as well as that you remain employed until the Termination Date and continue to perform your role (including handover and knowledge transfer and any other duties reasonably required of you by the Company) until the Termination Date.

Provided that you remain employed until the Termination Date, your 2022 incentive compensation ("**IC**") shall be calculated and paid through the regular IC cycle in accordance with the standard process under the PMI Global Variable Compensation Programs, and you will also remain eligible to participate in the 2023 stock cycle.

deduct the amount of such payment from the Severance Payment. Please contact Annick Perrenoud, Head Swiss Pension Funds (tel. +41 58 242 1241) for further information.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Subject to any option you elect under Paragraph 3(c)(ii) above, the Severance Payment (or, as applicable, the balance of the Severance Payment, if any) will be paid in a lump sum payment within 30 days after the Termination Date.

In such a case, should you have made the decision to transfer part or the total of the Severance Payment to the Pension Fund and should the Company have already paid the amount to the Pension Fund, you hereby authorize the Pension Fund to cancel the transaction and to return the amount to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(v)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Should the Pension Fund have to pay to you any amount in connection with a disability status after the execution of this Agreement, both parties to this Agreement hereby give permission to the Pension Fund to take into consideration the amount paid according to this Section 3(c) when determining the additional payments to be made.

(d)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, you will also receive a lump sum payment in the total gross amount of CHF 1'267'500.-- in consideration for the non-competition obligation in the section "Non Competition" of this Agreement, to be paid within 30 (thirty) days after the end of the non-compete period, subject to the conditions that (i) you fully comply with your obligations to the Company under this Agreement and that (ii) you address a letter or an email to our P&C Operations Switzerland at the end of the non-compete period, confirming that you did not violate in any manner the non-compete obligation stipulated in this Agreement (see template for confirmation under <u>Appendix I</u> to this Agreement).

**4.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Restricted Stock Units</u>**

Subject to your compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and in accordance with the terms of the applicable Restricted Stock Unit (RSU) agreements, the unvested 2021, 2022 and any 2023 RSUs grants made to you will fully vest.

**&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**

The accelerated vesting will occur on the Termination Date and will be processed by UBS Financial Services Inc. ("UBS") as soon as reasonably practicable following the Termination Date. The Company will comply with local laws and regulations including tax and social security withholding and information reporting to the taxing authorities as may be required.

**Philip Morris Products S.A.**, Avenue de Rhodanie 50, 1007 Lausanne, Switzerland

**T:**+41 (58) 242 00 00, **F:** +41 (58) 242 01 01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Page **3** of 16

------

Any applicable tax withholding (and any other payroll withholding taxes or social security deduction when applicable) will be satisfied by deducting the number of shares equal in value to the amount of the withholding requirements from your stock award; therefore, the number of shares deposited into your UBS account on the vesting date will be net of the shares used to satisfy applicable withholding taxes or other applicable deductions (rounded up to the nearest whole share). However, if you are not subject to income tax withholdings, or if the withholdings do not fully cover your income tax liability, you will be responsible for satisfying any tax liabilities due on these amounts.

You understand and agree that this vesting is being made and the valuations will be determined in compliance with applicable laws, regulations and practices.

As set forth in your applicable RSU agreements, as you were an Executive Officer (as designated by the Board of Directors of Philip Morris International Inc. within the meaning of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) within the period of 12 months prior to your Termination Date, any such shares you receive by way of accelerated vesting under this section 4 will be subject to a holding period of 12 consecutive months expiring on March 31, 2024.

To the extent any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent or in conflict with any term or provision of the respective RSU agreement, the RSU agreement shall govern.

**5.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Performance Share Units</u>**

Subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Performance Share Unit (PSU) agreements and your compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the following treatment will apply to your unvested PSUs:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Your unvested 2021, 2022 and any 2023 PSU grants will vest on the respective scheduled vesting date set out in your award statements. The number of PSUs that will actually vest, for each relevant year, will be equal to the performance percentage multiplied by your target number of PSUs, to the extent that the respective performance targets set out in your award statements are achieved at the end of each performance period.

In order to ensure compliance and delivery of the relevant shares, you will have to:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• provide the Company (email: CorporateCompensationPrograms.PMI@pmi.com) with your contact details before the Termination Date and notify the Company promptly of any change;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• in the event the Company specifically asks you in writing, promptly provide the Company with any information regarding your personal circumstances (including your bank account details)

**Philip Morris Products S.A.**, Avenue de Rhodanie 50, 1007 Lausanne, Switzerland

**T:**+41 (58) 242 00 00, **F:** +41 (58) 242 01 01&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Page **4** of 16

------

that the Company may reasonably need in order to satisfy tax, social security or other similar requirements.

You acknowledge that, should the Company be unable to contact you and/or should you fail to provide the Company, in response to the Company's written request, with relevant information with respect to a specific vesting, you will be solely responsible for any financial and non-financial consequences possibly resulting from incorrect or incomplete information, such as any additional tax or social security liability/penalties which may arise for late filing/withholdings during the vesting period.

Each vesting will be processed by UBS Financial Services Inc. ("UBS") as soon as reasonably practicable following the vesting date. The Company will comply with local laws and regulations including tax withholding (income and /or social security) and information reporting to the taxing authorities as may be required.

Any applicable tax withholding (and any other withholding payroll taxes or social security deduction when applicable) will be satisfied by deducting the number of shares equal in value to the amount of the withholding required from your stock award; therefore, the number of shares deposited into your UBS account after the vesting date will be net of the shares used to satisfy applicable withholding taxes or other applicable deductions (rounded up to the nearest whole share).

You understand and agree that these vestings are being made and the valuations will be determined in compliance with the relevant award agreement and applicable laws, regulations and practices.

You will receive your dividend equivalent payments in one lump-sum payment as soon as reasonably practicable following each vesting date. The amount paid to you will be based on the number of PSUs that vest and will be paid through payroll subject to tax withholding (income and/or social security) and information reporting to the taxing authorities as may be required.

Please note that with respect to both the issuance of shares and payment of the lump sum for dividend equivalents, you are responsible for satisfying your actual tax liabilities, even if you are not subject to tax withholdings or if the withholdings do not fully cover your tax liability.

To the extent any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent or in conflict with any term or provision of the respective PSU agreement, the PSU agreement shall govern.

(b)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The amounts payable pursuant to this Agreement will be subject to income tax and social security deductions, as applicable. You will be personally responsible for any actual income tax and social security liabilities arising on these amounts. If an income or social security tax withholding obligation arises for the Company in accordance with applicable legislation, the Company will fully comply with its obligations and will apply an appropriate withholding rate to any amounts paid to you pursuant to this Agreement.

(c)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Any outstanding balance on the account of the corporate credit card issued in your name as of the Termination Date and any other amounts that for any reason you may owe the Company may be set-off against any amounts payable by the Company pursuant to this Agreement.

**9.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<u>Benefit Car</u>** 

You will have the option to buy your present benefit car at the lower of its net book value or market value, at least 20 days before the possible Date of transfer (as defined below). In order for you to exercise this option, you undertake, within the 20-day period preceding the Date of transfer, to bring the car to a location and at a date to be agreed with the Company, in order for the Company to determine the exact market value of the car, which shall be communicated to you through a separate document. Should you not comply with this obligation, the Company is free to forfeit this option. The Company is free to appoint a third party of its choice to make the valuation and said evaluation shall be final. If the market value exceeds the book value, the difference represents a taxable benefit for you and will be subject to income tax and social security deductions, if applicable.

The transfer will be effective on the Termination Date (the "**Date of transfer**"). Insurance of the car will become your responsibility on the Date of transfer. You undertake to subscribe civil liability coverage for the car with an appropriate insurance company, starting on the first day following the Date of transfer, and to provide the Company with a certificate of insurance stating said coverage. The Company does not require reimbursement of the registration tax paid for 2023, but payment for 2024 and beyond shall be your responsibility. The Company is entitled to deduct payment for the car from your salary and/or from any other payment due to you according to this Agreement. No warranties will be given as to the condition of the car, of which you will be deemed to have full knowledge. If you decide not to exercise your option to buy the benefit car, it will be your obligation to return it to the Company by the Date of transfer, in accordance with the terms of the relevant Mobility Benefit Gudelines CH.
