 -8- 

 
Group Employees that arise from employment with the Kraft Group before, on or after the Distribution Date, including each and every Liability arising under a
Kraft Group Plan or assumed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (collectively, the “Kraft Benefit Liabilities”). 
 ARTICLE
III 
 EMPLOYEE TRANSFERS 
 3.1      Kraft Transferees. The following principles shall apply to any employee of a member of the Altria Group who has transferred or will transfer employment to a member of the Kraft Group on
or prior to September 30, 2007 (each, a “Kraft Transferee”). Except as specifically noted in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed in writing by the parties, each Kraft Transferee will become, or continue to be, eligible upon transfer
for the rights and benefits of similarly situated Kraft Group Employees. 
 (a)       Credit. No later
than as of the Distribution Date, each Kraft Group Plan shall provide that each Kraft Transferee shall be credited with eligibility and vesting service that is not less than the eligibility and vesting service that the Kraft Transferee had earned
under the comparable or equivalent Altria Group Plan, including periods of service with the Altria Group prior to December 1, 1988; provided, however, that in no event shall a member of the Kraft Group be required to
provide any service credit to any Kraft Transferee to the extent that the provision of such credit would result in the payment of any duplicate benefits except as may arise by application of Section 3.1(c) hereof. 
 (b)      Amendments. No member of the Kraft Group shall cause any amendments to be made to the Kraft Group Plans or
any policies regarding the Kraft Group Plans to be implemented that have the direct or indirect effect of treating the Kraft Transferees less favorably than the other Kraft Group Employees similarly situated in seniority and job responsibilities.

 (c)      Pension Benefits. No transfer of assets between the Kraft Group Plans and Altria Group Plans
shall be needed in order to effectuate the purpose of this Section 3.1(c). 
 Each Kraft Transferee shall remain entitled to all
benefits under the appropriate Altria Pension Plan to which he or she is or would be entitled if he or she had separated from service with the Altria Group as of the later of (i) the date of his or her transfer to the Kraft Group or
(ii) the Distribution Date (the later of which is referred to herein as the “Initial Altria Calculation Date”), and the appropriate Altria Pension Plan shall retain all Liability for such benefits (each, a “Retained Altria
Pension Plan Liability”). For purposes of calculating benefits under this Section 3.1(c), the Retained Altria Pension Plan Liability and the Assumed Altria Pension Plan Liability of any Kraft Transferee who has received target
payments from Altria and accordingly did not participate in non-qualified Altria Pension Plans for periods after December 31, 2004, and before the Initial Altria Calculation Date shall be calculated as if he or she participated in such Plans
with respect to such periods. A Kraft Transferee shall be considered as separated from the 

  

 -9- 

 
service of the Altria Group as of the Initial Altria Calculation Date and may elect to commence receiving his or her benefit in accordance with the terms of
the applicable Altria Pension Plan and any individual agreements that alter such terms. 
 The appropriate Kraft Pension Plan will also
assume the Retained Altria Pension Plan Liability with respect to each Kraft Transferee (whether or not vested) to the Initial Altria Calculation Date (as to each Kraft Transferee an “Assumed Altria Pension Plan Liability”) subject to the
offset described later in this paragraph. As of such date, the Assumed Altria Pension Plan Liability should be equal to the Retained Altria Pension Plan Liability. The appropriate Kraft Pension Plan is not required to credit the Kraft Transferee
with benefit service in determining the Assumed Altria Pension Plan Liability for periods of employment with the Kraft Group on and after the Initial Altria Calculation Date, but shall credit the Kraft Transferee with vesting and eligibility service
on and after such date for purposes of determining whether the Kraft Transferee’s Assumed Altria Pension Plan Liability is vested and whether the Kraft Transferee has completed the requisite years of service in order to be eligible for an early
retirement benefit and accompanying early retirement subsidies (which must be no less favorable than the eligibility requirements and other terms of the Altria Pension Plan in which the Kraft Transferee participated on his or her date of transfer)
with respect to the Assumed Altria Pension Plan Liability. In computing the benefit determined pursuant to the Assumed Altria Pension Plan Liability (and determined in accordance with the applicable Altria Pension Plan) as of any date, the Kraft
Pension Plan shall use the same methodology as the relevant Altria Pension Plan (as in effect on the Distribution Date) in determining the Kraft Transferee’s “five-year average compensation” and “social security integration
level” (as such terms are defined in the Altria Pension Plan) as of the Kraft Transferee’s retirement or other separation from service of the Kraft Group, but taking into account compensation paid by the Kraft Group through the date of the
Kraft Transferee’s retirement or other separation from service. The benefit determined pursuant to the Assumed Altria Pension Plan Liability, as adjusted pursuant to the provisions of the preceding two sentences and payable from the appropriate
Kraft Pension Plan shall be offset by the benefit determined pursuant to the Retained Altria Pension Plan Liability (and determined in accordance with the applicable Altria Pension Plan) payable from the relevant Altria Pension Plan as of the age at
which the offset is applied. The early or late retirement factors used to determine the amount of the Retained Altria Pension Plan Liability that will be used as an offset to the Assumed Altria Pension Plan Liability shall be based on the
entitlement of the Kraft Transferee as of the Initial Altria Calculation Date to a vested, early, full or deferred retirement allowance, as applicable, under the appropriate Altria Pension Plan. 
 Altria will calculate and notify Kraft in writing of the amount of the Retained Altria Pension Plan Liability for each Kraft Transferee as soon as
practicable following the Distribution Date. 
 These principles shall remain in effect so long as the Kraft Transferee continues to be
employed by a member of the Kraft Group irrespective of whether or when the Kraft Transferee elects to begin receiving a benefit under an Altria Pension Plan. 
  

 -10- 

 (d)      Non-qualified Deferred Compensation. 
 As soon as practicable following the Initial Altria Calculation Date, Altria will cause the appropriate member of the Altria Group to pay to each Kraft
Transferee in cash the full amount of any non-qualified deferred compensation account or accounts under any Altria Pension Plan or Altria Profit-Sharing Plan held by such Kraft Transferee or as otherwise required by the terms of the applicable
non-qualified deferred compensation plan or by individual agreements; provided, however, that such payments may be deferred to the extent doing so is, in the judgment of Altria, appropriate to avoid potential violations of Code Section 409A.

 (e)      Performance Incentive Compensation. 
 (i)        Long Term Incentive Compensation. Each Kraft Transferee who is a participant in
the 2007-2009 long-term incentive performance cycle under an Altria Performance Incentive Plan will be eligible to participate in the most similar program under the appropriate Kraft Performance Incentive Plan, without proration for any period
between January 1, 2007, and the date the individual becomes a Kraft Transferee. 
 (ii)        Annual Incentive Compensation. Each Kraft Transferee will receive an annual incentive target under the appropriate Kraft Performance Incentive Plan that is equivalent to his or her
annual incentive target under an Altria Performance Incentive Plan at the time of transfer, without proration for any period between January 1, 2007, and the date the individual becomes a Kraft Transferee. 
 (f)      Savings Plan. As soon as administratively practicable following the date on which the Kraft Transferee
transfers and in no event later than 30 days following the date of transfer, the Kraft Transferee shall be eligible to commence participation in the appropriate Kraft Savings Plan. Any service requirements contained in such Kraft Savings Plan with
respect to eligibility to participate generally or eligibility to share in any employer contributions thereunder shall be waived for the Kraft Transferee. If a Kraft Transferee is transferred to the Kraft Group in the same calendar year as the
Distribution Date and would otherwise be eligible for a company contribution (within the meaning of the Altria Profit-Sharing Plan) for that calendar year, the appropriate member of the Altria Group will contribute to each such Kraft
Transferee’s account in the appropriate Altria Profit-Sharing Plan the pro-rated amount of any employer contribution to which the Kraft Transferee is entitled based on his compensation (as defined in the Altria Profit-Sharing Plan) received
from a Participating Company (as defined in the Altria Profit-Sharing Plan) through the date of transfer and irrespective of whether such Kraft Transferee is employed by the Kraft Group on the last day of the calendar year in which he transferred.
Any Kraft Transferee who has an outstanding loan from an Altria Profit-Sharing Plan as of the Initial Altria Calculation Date may continue to repay such loan in accordance with the terms of such Altria Profit-Sharing Plan. 
  

 -11- 

 (g)      Severance. Each Kraft Transferee who is involuntarily
separated from a member of the Kraft Group within two years after his or her transfer date (each such two year period, a “Protection Period”), shall be eligible to receive a payment equal to the sum of: 
  

	 	(i)	any severance or other amounts payable by such member of the Kraft Group to such Kraft Transferee, which severance or other amount shall be no less than that paid to any employee of
that member similarly situated in age, seniority or job responsibility (each, a “Kraft Severance Payment”); and 

  

	 	(ii)	the excess, if any, of: (A) any severance or other amounts that would have been payable by the member of the Altria Group from which the Kraft Transferee transferred if the
Kraft Transferee had remained in the employ of such member of the Altria Group through the date of his or her involuntary separation (determined based on the Altria workforce reduction practices in effect on the date of the involuntary separation,
which practices shall in no event be less favorable than the practices in effect on the date of transfer); over (B) the Kraft Severance Payment (each, an “Altria Excess Severance Payment”); 

 provided that a Kraft Transferee shall not be entitled to any benefit under this Section 3.1(g) if: (A) the Kraft Transferee is
involuntarily separated because of misconduct or violation of any Kraft Group policy or procedure as determined by the appropriate member of the Kraft Group; or (B) the Kraft Transferee voluntarily terminates his or her employment with a member
of the Kraft Group. 
 The member of the Kraft Group from which the Kraft Transferee is involuntarily separated shall be solely responsible
for the payment of the Kraft Severance Payment. The member of the Altria Group from which the Kraft Transferee transferred shall be solely responsible for the payment of the Altria Excess Severance Payment. Kraft will calculate and notify Altria in
writing of the amount of the Kraft Severance Payment and Altria will calculate and notify Kraft in writing of the amount of the Altria Excess Severance Payment as soon as practicable following such Kraft Transferee’s involuntary termination. In
order to receive the payment of his or her Altria Excess Severance Payment the Kraft Transferee must execute a general release agreement provided by Altria. 
 (h)      Retiree Medical Benefits. Any salaried Kraft Transferee who has an aggregate of five years of service with a member of the Altria Group and the Kraft Group and becomes
eligible for a severance payment pursuant to subsection (g) of this Section 3.1 and attains his or her fiftieth birthday before the end of the period of time for which he or she is entitled to receive severance payments, shall also
be eligible to receive retiree medical benefits under the Kraft Foods Salaried Retiree Medical Plan upon retirement or other separation from service from the Kraft Group. 
  

 -12- 

 (i)      Welfare and Other Plans. Kraft Transferees will be entitled
to participate immediately upon transfer in the Kraft Welfare and Other Plans in accordance with the Altria-Kraft practices in effect as of the Distribution Date. 
 3.2      Altria Transferees. The following principles shall apply to any employee of a member of the Kraft Group who has transferred or will transfer employment to a member
of the Altria Group on or prior to September 30, 2007 (each, an “Altria Transferee”). Except as specifically noted in this Agreement as otherwise agreed in writing by the parties, each Altria Transferee will become, or continue to be,
eligible upon transfer for the rights and benefits of similarly situated Altria Group Employees. 
 (a)      Credit. No later than as of the Distribution Date, each Altria Group Plan shall provide that each Altria Transferee shall be credited with eligibility and vesting service that is not less than
the eligibility and vesting service that the Altria Transferee had earned under the comparable or equivalent Kraft Group Plan, including periods of service with the Kraft Group prior to December 1, 1988, but subject to the terms and limitations
on the crediting of such service of the Altria Pension Plan in effect on the date of the execution of this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall a member of the Altria Group be required to provide any service
credit to any Altria Transferee to the extent that the provision of such credit would result in the payment of any duplicate benefits except as expressly set forth in Section 3.2(c) hereof. 
 (b)      Amendments. No member of the Altria Group shall cause any amendments to be made to the Altria Group Plans
or any policies regarding the Altria Group Plans to be implemented that have the direct or indirect effect of treating the Altria Transferees less favorably than the other Altria Group Employees similarly situated in seniority and job
responsibilities. 
 (c)      Pension Benefits. No transfer of assets between the Altria Group Plans and
Kraft Group Plans shall be needed in order to effectuate the purpose of this Section 3.2(c) 
 Each Altria Transferee shall remain
entitled to all benefits under the appropriate Kraft Pension Plan to which he or she is or would be entitled if he or she had separated from service with the Kraft Group as of the later of (i) the date of his or her transfer to the Altria Group
or (ii) the Distribution Date (the later of which is referred to herein as the “Initial Kraft Calculation Date”), and the appropriate Kraft Pension Plan shall retain all Liability for such benefits (each, a “Retained Kraft
Pension Plan Liability”). An Altria Transferee shall be considered as separated from the service of the Kraft Group as of the Initial Kraft Calculation Date and may elect to commence receiving his or her benefit in accordance with the terms of
the applicable Kraft Pension Plan and any individual agreements that alter such terms. 
 The appropriate Altria Pension Plan will also
assume the Retained Kraft Pension Plan Liability with respect to each Altria Transferee (whether or not vested) to the Initial Kraft Calculation Date, (as to each Altria Transferee an “Assumed Kraft Pension Plan Liability”), subject to the
offset described later in this paragraph. As of such date, the 

  

 -13- 

 
Assumed Kraft Pension Plan Liability should be equal to the Retained Kraft Pension Plan Liability. The appropriate Altria Pension Plan is not required to
credit the Altria Transferee with benefit service in determining the Assumed Kraft Pension Plan Liability for periods of employment with the Altria Group on and after the Initial Kraft Calculation Date, but shall credit the Altria Transferee with
vesting and eligibility service on and after such date for purposes of determining whether the Altria Transferee’s Assumed Kraft Pension Plan Liability is vested and whether the Altria Transferee has completed the requisite years of service in
order to be eligible for an early retirement benefit and accompanying early retirement subsidies (which must be no less favorable than the eligibility requirements and other terms of the Kraft Pension Plan in which the Altria Transferee participated
on his or her date of transfer) with respect to the Assumed Kraft Pension Plan Liability. In computing the benefit determined pursuant to the Assumed Kraft Pension Plan Liability (as determined in accordance with the applicable Kraft Pension Plan)
as of any date, the Altria Pension Plan shall use the same methodology as the relevant Kraft Pension Plan (as in effect on the Distribution Date) in determining the Altria Transferee’s “final average pay” and “social security
integration level/covered compensation” (as such terms are defined in the Kraft Pension Plan) as of the Kraft Transferee’s retirement or other separation from service from the Altria Group, but taking into account compensation paid by the
Altria Group through the date of the Altria Transferee’s retirement or other separation from service. The benefit determined pursuant to the Assumed Kraft Pension Plan Liability, as adjusted pursuant to the provisions of the preceding two
sentences and payable from the appropriate Altria Pension Plan shall be offset by the benefit determined pursuant to the Retained Kraft Pension Plan Liability (as determined in accordance with the applicable Kraft Pension Plan) payable from the
relevant Kraft Pension Plan as of the age at which the offset is applied. The early or late retirement factors used to determine the amount of the Retained Kraft Pension Plan Liability that will be used as an offset to the Assumed Kraft Pension Plan
Liability shall be based on the entitlement of the Altria Transferee as of the Initial Kraft Calculation Date to a vested, early, full or deferred retirement benefit, as applicable, under the appropriate Kraft Pension Plan. 
 Kraft will calculate and notify Altria in writing of the amount of the Retained Kraft Pension Plan Liability for each Altria Transferee as soon as
practicable following the Distribution Date. 
 These principles shall remain in effect so long as the Altria Transferee continues to be
employed by a member of the Altria Group irrespective of whether or when the Altria Transferee elects to begin receiving a benefit under a Kraft Pension Plan. 
 (d)      General Foods Management Performance Awards Plan. 
 As soon
as practicable following each Altria Transferee’s Initial Kraft Calculation Date, Kraft will cause the appropriate member of the Kraft Group to pay to such Altria Transferee in cash the full amount of any non-qualified deferred compensation
account or accounts under the terms of the General Foods Management Performance Awards Plan held by such Altria Transferee. 
  

 -14- 

 (e)      Performance Incentive Compensation. 
     (i)      Long Term Incentive Compensation. Each Altria Transferee who is a
participant in the 2007-2009 long-term incentive performance cycle under a Kraft Performance Incentive Plan will be eligible to participate in the most similar program under the appropriate Altria Performance Incentive Plan without proration for any
period between January 1, 2007, and the date the individual becomes an Altria Transferee. 
     (ii)         Annual Incentive Compensation. Each Altria Transferee will receive an annual incentive target under the appropriate Altria Performance Incentive Plan that
is equivalent to his or her annual incentive target under a Kraft Performance Incentive Plan at the time of transfer without proration for any period between January 1, 2007, and the date the individual becomes an Altria Transferee. 

(f)      Profit-Sharing Plan. As soon as administratively practicable following the date on which the Altria
Transferee transfers, the Altria Transferee shall be eligible to commence participation in the appropriate Altria Profit-Sharing Plan. Any service requirements contained in such Altria Profit-Sharing Plan with respect to eligibility to participate
generally or eligibility to share in any employer contributions thereunder shall be waived for the Altria Transferee. Any Altria Transferee who has an outstanding loan from a Kraft Savings Plan as of the Initial Kraft Calculation Date may continue
to repay such loan in accordance with the terms of such Kraft Savings Plan. 
 (g)      Severance. Each
Altria Transferee who is involuntarily separated from a member of the Altria Group shall be eligible to receive a payment equal to any severance or other amounts payable by such member of the Altria Group to such Altria Transferee, which severance
or other amount shall be no less than that paid to any employee of that member similarly situated in age, seniority or job responsibility. 
 The member of the Altria Group from which the Altria Transferee is involuntarily separated shall be solely responsible for the payment of such amounts. 
 (h)      Welfare and Other Plans. Altria Transferees will be entitled to participate immediately upon transfer in the Altria Welfare and Other Plans in accordance with Altria-Kraft
practices in effect as of the Distribution Date.

 ARTICLE IV 
 EQUITY COMPENSATION 
 4.1      Altria Options.

 (a)      Adjustment Methodology. Each Altria Option shall be adjusted in the manner described below,
effective as of the time of the Distribution, so that each Altria Option holder shall hold Adjusted Altria Options and Kraft Options in lieu of the Altria Options previously held. The following procedure shall be applied to each grant of Altria
Options with the same grant date and exercise price held by each Altria Option holder. For the avoidance of doubt, the term “exercise price” refers to the amount payable by an option holder in order to acquire shares pursuant to a stock
option award. 
     (i)        The Adjusted Altria Options shall
have an exercise price equal to the Altria Post-Adjustment Price multiplied by the Option Conversion Ratio. The number of Adjusted Altria Options shall equal the number of Altria Options. 
     (ii)        The Kraft Options shall have an exercise price equal to the
Kraft Price multiplied by the Option Conversion Ratio. The number of Kraft Options shall equal the number of Altria Options multiplied by the Distribution Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole option. If the resulting aggregate Intrinsic Value of
the Adjusted Altria Options and Kraft Options is less than the Intrinsic Value of the Altria Options, then the difference shall be paid to the option holder in cash as soon as practicable following the Distribution Date. If the resulting aggregate
Intrinsic Value of the Adjusted Altria Options and Kraft Options is greater than the Intrinsic Value of the Altria Options, then the number of Kraft Options shall be reduced until the aggregate Intrinsic Value of the Adjusted Altria Options and
Kraft Options is less than or equal to the Intrinsic Value of the Altria Options, and any difference shall be paid to the option holder in cash as soon as practicable following the Distribution Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Intrinsic
Value of the Altria Options is negative, only the first two sentences of this Section 4.1(a)(ii) shall be applied. The cash payment described above shall be made by Altria to individuals who are Altria Group employees on the Distribution Date
(or individuals no longer performing services for the Altria Group or the Kraft Group but whose last employment was with the Altria Group), and by Kraft to individuals who are Kraft Group employees on the Distribution Date (or individuals no longer
performing services for the Altria Group or the Kraft Group but whose last employment was with the Kraft Group). 
     (iii)        The calculation described in the preceding sentence shall be applied using the rounding conventions determined by Altria to carry out the purpose of this
Section 4.1. 
 (b)      Issuing Entity and Settlement. Altria will adjust the exercise
price of the Altria Options to become Adjusted Altria Options pursuant to the Altria Performance Incentive Plan. After the Distribution Date, Adjusted Altria Options, regardless of by 

  

 -16- 

 
whom held, shall be settled by Altria pursuant to the Altria Performance Incentive Plan. Kraft will issue the Kraft Options pursuant to the Kraft Performance
Incentive Plan. After the Distribution Date, Kraft Options, regardless of by whom held, shall be settled by Kraft pursuant to the Kraft Performance Incentive Plan. 
 (c)      Option Agreement Terms. The Adjusted Altria Options and the Kraft Options shall have terms that are substantially identical to the terms of the Altria Options, provided,
however, that (i) the options shall not permit further Executive Ownership Stock Options to be granted on or after the Distribution Date, (ii) the options shall provide that individuals who are employees of the Kraft Group shall continue
while employed by the Kraft Group to be treated as employees of an Altria affiliate solely for purposes of determining the exercise period under the option agreements, provided, however, that this treatment shall apply only to individuals who are
employees of the Kraft Group on the Distribution Date or who are Kraft Transferees, and (iii) the Kraft Options shall refer to both Kraft and Altria as appropriate to effectuate the intent of this Section 4.1 including references to
the Altria disability and retirement plans. Furthermore, individuals who are employees of the SABMiller Group shall be treated as employees of an Altria affiliate for purposes of determining the exercise period under the Adjusted Altria Options and
Kraft Options. 
 (d)      Consideration. As soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, Altria
shall pay to Kraft the Fair Value of the Kraft Options held by individuals who are Altria Group employees on the Distribution Date (or individuals no longer performing services for the Altria Group or the Kraft Group but whose last employment was
with the Altria Group) and Kraft shall pay to Altria the Fair Value of the Adjusted Altria Options held by individuals who are Kraft Group employees on the Distribution Date (or individuals no longer performing services for the Altria Group or the
Kraft Group but whose last employment was with the Kraft Group). The parties shall settle the obligations of the preceding sentence in cash on a net basis such that the party required to pay the greater amount to the other shall pay the difference
between the two amounts to the other. 
 4.2      Kraft Options Issued by Altria. Kraft has
agreed to purchase from Altria, at a time mutually agreed between the parties but no later than three Business Days before the Record Date, the Class A Common Stock held by Altria in connection with the Altria-Kraft Options. Altria has sold and
Kraft has purchased such shares at a per-share price equal to the average of the high and low trading price of Class A Common Stock on the NYSE on the day before day of the purchase. Effective as of the date of such purchase, holders of the
Altria-Kraft Options became entitled to receive from Altria upon exercise of such options cash in the amount equal to the difference between the exercise price of such options and the then-current fair market value of Class A Common Stock
determined pursuant to the terms of such options. As soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, Kraft shall pay to Altria the Fair Value of the Altria-Kraft Options held by individuals who are Kraft Group employees on the Distribution Date
(or individuals no longer performing services for the Altria Group or the Kraft Group but whose last employment was with the Kraft Group). 
  

 -17- 

 4.3      Restricted Stock. 
 (a)      Adjustment. Pursuant to the Distribution, each holder of Altria Restricted Stock will receive from Altria as
of the time of the Distribution shares of Class A Common Stock in the same manner and based on the same ratio as other shareholders of Altria Common Stock. Such Class A Common Stock shall be subject to the same vesting requirements and
dates and other terms and conditions as the Altria Restricted Stock to which it relates (including the right to receive all dividends or other distributions paid on Class A Common Stock); provided that any fractional shares of Kraft
Restricted Stock shall be paid to the holder by Altria in cash as soon as practicable following the Distribution Date in accordance with the Distribution Agreement. 
 (b)      Restricted Stock Agreement Terms. The Kraft Restricted Stock shall have terms that are substantially identical to the terms of the Altria Restricted Stock, provided,
however, that (i) the Altria Restricted Stock and the Kraft Restricted Stock shall provide that individuals who are employees of the Kraft Group shall continue to be treated as employees of an Altria affiliate for purposes of continued vesting
in the restricted stock, provided, however, that this treatment shall apply only to individuals who are employees of the Kraft Group on the Distribution Date or who are Kraft Transferees; and (ii) the Kraft Restricted Stock shall refer to both
Kraft and Altria as appropriate to effectuate the intent of this Section 4.3. 
 (c)      Forfeiture of Kraft Stock and Consideration. If a holder of Kraft Restricted Stock forfeits such stock under the terms of the Kraft Restricted Stock, the forfeited stock shall be returned to
Kraft, not Altria. In consideration of the anticipated receipt of such forfeitures, Kraft shall pay in cash to Altria as soon as practicable following the Distribution Date the Kraft Restricted Stock Forfeiture Value attributable to Kraft Restricted
Stock held by individuals who are Altria Group employees on the Distribution Date. In addition, Kraft shall pay in cash to Altria as soon as practicable following the Distribution Date the value of the Altria Restricted Stock held by the Kraft Group
employees on the Distribution Date. The value of the Altria Restricted Stock shall be equal to the Altria Pre-Adjustment Price of the underlying Altria shares, reduced by assumed forfeitures based on the assumptions used for Statement of Financial
Accounting Standards 123(R) purposes in Altria’s most recent quarterly or annual financial reporting prepared before the Distribution Date for forfeitures by Kraft Group employees (with respect to Kraft restricted stock held by Kraft Group
employees). 
 4.4      Deferred Stock. 
 (a)        Adjustment. Effective at the time of the Distribution, each holder of Altria Deferred Stock
shall receive a number of Kraft Deferred Stock shares equal to the number of Altria Deferred Stock shares held by such individual multiplied by the Distribution Ratio. Any fractional shares of Kraft Deferred Stock shall be paid to such individual in
cash as soon as practicable following the Distribution Date; provided, however, that with respect to any individual (i) who is subject to U.S. federal income tax on the deferred stock and (ii) who has attained normal
retirement age (within the meaning of the Altria Deferred Stock agreement) or who will attain normal retirement age before 

  

 -18- 

 
the Altria and Kraft Deferred Stock becomes payable (and any other individual who holds Deferred Stock that is subject to Code Section 409A), any
fractional shares of Kraft Deferred Stock shall instead be rounded up to a whole share of Kraft Deferred Stock. The cash payment described above shall be made by Altria to individuals who are Altria Group employees on the Distribution Date, and by
Kraft to individuals who are Kraft Group employees on the Distribution Date. 
 (b)      Issuing Entity and
Settlement. After the Distribution Date, Altria shall be responsible for any cash payments in lieu of dividends required pursuant to the terms of the Altria Deferred Stock, and such Altria Deferred Stock, regardless of by whom held, shall be
settled by Altria pursuant to the Altria Performance Incentive Plan. Kraft will issue Kraft Deferred Stock pursuant to the Kraft Performance Incentive Plan. After the Distribution Date, Kraft shall be responsible for any cash payments in lieu of
dividends required pursuant to the terms of the Kraft Deferred Stock, and such deferred stock, regardless of by whom held, shall be settled by Kraft pursuant to the Kraft Performance Incentive Plan. 
 (c)      Deferred Stock Agreement Terms. The Kraft Deferred Stock shall have terms that are substantially identical
to the terms of the Altria Deferred Stock, provided, however, that (i) the Altria Deferred Stock and the Kraft Deferred Stock shall provide that individuals who are employees of the Kraft Group shall continue to be treated as employees of an
Altria affiliate for purposes of continued vesting in the deferred stock, provided, however, that this treatment shall apply only to individuals who are employees of the Kraft Group on the Distribution Date or who are Kraft Transferees, and
(ii) the Kraft Deferred Stock shall refer to both Kraft and Altria as appropriate to effectuate the intent of this Section 4.4. 
 (d)      Consideration. As soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, Altria shall pay to Kraft the value of the Kraft Deferred Stock held by individuals who are Altria Group employees on the
Distribution Date and Kraft shall pay to Altria the value of the Altria Deferred Stock held by Kraft Group employees. The parties shall settle the obligations of the preceding sentence in cash on a net basis such that the party required to pay the
greater amount to the other shall pay the difference between the two amounts to the other. For purposes of this Section 4.4(d), the value of the Altria Deferred Stock or Kraft Deferred Stock shall be equal to the closing price on the
NYSE of the underlying Altria or Kraft shares on the Distribution Date, reduced by assumed forfeitures based on the assumptions used for Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123(R) purposes in Altria’s most recent quarterly or annual
financial reporting prepared before the Distribution Date for forfeitures by Altria Group employees (with respect to Kraft Deferred Stock held by Altria Group employees) and by Kraft Group employees (with respect to Altria Deferred Stock held by
Kraft Group employees). 
 (e)      Taxes. Altria shall reimburse any Altria Group employee, and Kraft
shall reimburse any Kraft Group employee, who becomes liable for income taxes earlier or in an amount greater than would have been the case absent the implementation of Section 4.4(a) in an amount equal to the excess of (i) any
income taxes to which such employee becomes liable over (ii) the present value of such income taxes had such income taxes 

  

 -19- 

 
been paid at such time as the Altria or Kraft Deferred Stock would otherwise have been subject to income taxes, assuming, for purposes of determining present
value, the same value for Deferred Stock used for purposes of clause (i) of this sentence and a discount rate equal to the weighted average discount rate used for Altria’s domestic pension plans at December 31, 2006, which was 5.9%.
Any such reimbursement shall be further adjusted to hold the employee harmless from all additional taxes on the reimbursement payment itself. The amounts payable pursuant to this Section 4.4(e) shall be calculated using reasonable
assumptions (in addition to those specified above) as may be determined by the third-party accounting firm or firms selected by the party responsible for the reimbursement. 
 4.5      Existing Kraft Equity Compensation. 
 (a)      Consideration. As soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, Altria shall pay to Kraft the Fair
Value of the Existing Kraft Options held by individuals who transferred employment from the Kraft Group to the Altria Group before the Distribution Date. As soon as practicable following the Distribution Date, Altria shall also pay to Kraft the
value of the Existing Kraft Restricted Stock and Existing Kraft Deferred Stock held by individuals who transferred employment from the Kraft Group to the Altria Group before the Distribution Date. The value of the Existing Kraft Restricted Stock and
Existing Kraft Deferred Stock shall be equal to the closing price on the NYSE of the underlying Kraft shares on the Distribution Date, reduced by assumed forfeitures based on the assumptions used for Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
123(R) purposes in Altria’s most recent quarterly or annual financial reporting prepared before the Distribution Date for Altria Group employees (with respect to the relevant Altria equity compensation held by Altria Group employees).

 (b)      Employment Treatment. Equity compensation issued by Kraft before the Distribution Date shall
provide that individuals who are Altria Transferees shall continue while employed by Altria to be treated as employees of a member of the Kraft Group for purposes of determining the exercise period of Kraft options and continued vesting in Kraft
restricted stock and deferred stock. 
 4.6      Other. 
 (a)      Administration and Withholding. Altria and Kraft agree that UBS Financial Services Inc. shall be the
administrator and recordkeeper for the Adjusted Altria Options, Kraft Options, Altria-Kraft Options, Altria Restricted Stock, Kraft Restricted Stock, Altria Deferred Stock, and Kraft Deferred Stock for the life of the options, restricted stock and
deferred stock, unless the parties mutually agree otherwise. Altria will be responsible for all payroll taxes, withholding, and reporting with respect to Equity Compensation of Altria Group employees (or individuals no longer performing services for
the Altria Group or the Kraft Group but whose last employment was with the Altria Group). Kraft will be responsible for all payroll taxes, withholding, and reporting with respect to Equity Compensation of Kraft Group employees (or individuals no
longer performing services for the Altria Group or the Kraft Group but whose last employment was with the Kraft Group). Altria and Kraft agree to designate the other party as an agent 

  

 -20- 

 
for withholding pursuant to IRS Revenue Procedure 70-6 and to accept such designation to effectuate the intent of this Section 4.6(a). Upon the
exercise of an Adjusted Altria Option, Kraft Option, or Altria-Kraft Option, the exercise price shall be remitted by the option administrator to the issuer of the option (Altria or Kraft, as applicable) and the applicable withholding shall be
remitted by the option administrator to the entity (Altria or Kraft, as applicable) responsible for payroll taxes, withholding, and reporting with respect to the option. Upon vesting or payment, as applicable, of Altria and Kraft Restricted Stock
and Altria and Kraft Deferred Stock, the applicable withholding shall be remitted by the administrator to the entity (Altria or Kraft, as applicable) responsible for payroll taxes, withholding, and reporting with respect to the Restricted or
Deferred Stock. With respect to dividends on Kraft Restricted Stock or dividend equivalents on Kraft Deferred Stock payable by Kraft to an Altria Group employee (or to an individual no longer performing services for the Altria Group or Kraft Group
but whose last employment was with the Altria Group), Kraft shall make such payments to Altria, and Altria, as an agent for Kraft, shall make such payments to its employees and former employees and shall be responsible for payroll taxes,
withholding, and reporting in accordance with this Section 4.6(a). With respect to dividends on Altria Restricted Stock or dividend equivalents on Altria Deferred Stock payable by Altria to a Kraft Group employee (or to an individual no
longer performing services for the Altria Group or Kraft Group but whose last employment was with the Kraft Group), Altria shall make such payments to Kraft, and Kraft, as an agent for Altria, shall make such payments to its employees and former
employees and shall be responsible for payroll taxes, withholding, and reporting in accordance with this Section 4.6(a). With respect to fractional shares of Kraft Restricted Stock payable by Altria to a Kraft Group employee (or to an
individual no longer performing services for the Altria Group or Kraft Group but whose last employment was with the Kraft Group), Altria shall make such payments to Kraft, and Kraft, as an agent for Altria, shall make such payments to its employees
and former employees and shall be responsible for payroll taxes, withholding, and reporting in accordance with this Section 4.6(a). 
 (b)      Tax Deductions. With respect to the Equity Compensation held by individuals who are employees of the Altria Group at the time the Equity Compensation becomes taxable and individuals who are not
employees of the Altria Group or Kraft Group at such time but were last employees of the Altria Group, Altria shall claim any federal, state, and/or local tax deductions after the Distribution Date, and Kraft shall not claim such deductions. With
respect to the Equity Compensation held by individuals who are employees of the Kraft Group at the time the Equity Compensation becomes taxable and individuals who are not employees of the Altria Group or Kraft Group at such time but were last
employees of the Kraft Group, Kraft shall claim any federal, state, and/or local tax deductions after the Distribution Date, and Altria shall not claim such deductions. If either Altria or Kraft determines in its reasonable judgment that there is a
substantial likelihood that a tax deduction that was assigned to Altria or Kraft pursuant to this Section 4.6(b) will instead be available only to the other party (whether as a result of a determination by the Internal Revenue Service, a
change in the Code or the regulations or guidance thereunder, or otherwise), it will notify the other party and both parties will negotiate in good faith to resolve the issue in accordance with the following principle: the party entitled to the
deduction shall pay to the other party an amount that puts the 

  

 -21- 

 
other party in a financial position equivalent to the financial position the party would have been in had the party received the deduction as intended under
this Section 4.6(b). Such amount shall be paid within 90 days of filing the last tax return necessary to make the determination described in the preceding sentence. 
 (c)      Intended Results; Tax Benefit. If Altria determines in its reasonable judgment that any action required
under this Article IV will not achieve the intended tax, accounting and legal results, including, without limitation, the intended results under Code Section 409A and Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 123(R), then at the request of
Altria, Kraft and Altria shall mutually cooperate in taking such actions as are necessary or appropriate to achieve such results, or most nearly achieve such results if the originally-intended results are not fully attainable. 
 (d)      Registration. Kraft shall register the Class A Common Stock relating to the Kraft Options and Kraft
Deferred Stock and make any necessary filings with the appropriate governmental authorities as required under U.S. and foreign securities Laws. 
 ARTICLE V 
 SAVINGS PLANS 
 5.1      Maintenance of Stock Funds. 
 (a)      Kraft. The Kraft Savings Plans will be amended as of the Distribution Date to provide that no new amounts may be contributed to any fund in such Plans whose value is based on the value of Altria
Common Stock (each, an “Altria Stock Fund”) whether through employee contribution, employer contribution, dividend payment or intra-plan transfers. Kraft further will cause the Altria Stock Fund in each of the Kraft Savings Plans to be
maintained until the fiduciary for the Plan, in exercise of its obligations under applicable Law, determines that the maintenance of such Altria Stock Fund is no longer consistent with ERISA. 
 (b)      Altria. Each of the Altria Profit-Sharing Plans will be amended as of the Distribution Date: (A) to
create a new fund whose value is based on the value of Class A Common Stock (each, a “Kraft Stock Fund”); (B) to enable the Kraft Stock Fund to receive shares of Class A Common Stock to be distributed in the Distribution on
behalf of Plan participants; and (C) to provide that, following the Distribution, no new amounts may be contributed to a Kraft Stock Fund whether through employee contribution, employer contribution, dividend payment or intra-plan transfer.
Altria further will cause the Kraft Stock Fund in each of the Altria Profit-Sharing Plans to be maintained until the fiduciary for the Plan, in exercise of its obligations under applicable Law, determines that the maintenance of such Kraft Stock
Fund is no longer consistent with ERISA. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 ALTRIA STOCK PURCHASE PLAN 
 6.1      Termination of
Participation. As of the Distribution Date, the Kraft Group Employees shall cease to be eligible to participate in the Altria Stock Purchase Plan, in accordance with the terms of such Plan. 
  

 -22- 

 ARTICLE VII 
 GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE 
 7.1      Sharing of Participant
Information. Altria and Kraft shall share, Altria shall cause each applicable member of the Altria Group to share, and Kraft shall cause each applicable member of the Kraft Group to share, with each other and their respective agents and
vendors (without obtaining releases), all participant information necessary for the efficient and accurate administration of each of the Altria Plans and the Kraft Plans, as well as the performance of their respective obligations under this
Agreement. Altria and Kraft and their respective authorized agents shall, subject to applicable Laws on confidentiality, data protection and labor, be given reasonable and timely access to, and may make copies of, all information relating to the
subjects of this Agreement in the custody of the other party, to the extent necessary for such administration. All participant information shall be provided in a manner and medium that is compatible with the data processing systems of Altria as in
effect as of the Distribution Date, unless otherwise agreed to by Altria and Kraft. Altria and Kraft shall ensure that they each have in place appropriate technical and organizational security measures to protect the personal data of the
transferring participants (“Personal Data”). Each of Altria and Kraft shall comply fully with its obligations under applicable Laws as controller of any Personal Data and shall do all such things as may be necessary to
discharge such obligations. 
 7.2      No Third-Party Beneficiaries. No provision of this
Agreement or the Distribution Agreement shall be construed to create any right, or accelerate entitlement, to any compensation or benefit whatsoever on the part of any Kraft Transferee, any Altria Transferee or other future, present, or former
employee of Altria, a member of the Altria Group, Kraft or a member of the Kraft Group under any Altria Group Plan or Kraft Group Plan or otherwise. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing: (i) except as expressly provided in this
Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Kraft or any member of the Kraft Group, at any time after the Distribution Date, from amending, merging, modifying, terminating, eliminating, reducing, or otherwise altering in any respect any
Kraft Group Plan, any benefit under any Plan or any trust, insurance policy or funding vehicle related to any Kraft Group Plan; and (ii) except as expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Altria or any
member of the Altria Group, at any time after the Distribution modifying, terminating, eliminating, reducing, or otherwise altering in any respect any Altria Group Plan, any benefit under any Plan or any trust, insurance policy or funding vehicle
related to any Altria Plan. In no event shall any provision of this Agreement be deemed to amend any Altria Group Plan or Kraft Group Plan.

third party (such as a vendor or a union) and such consent is withheld, Altria and Kraft shall use their reasonable best efforts to implement the applicable provisions of this Agreement to the full extent practicable. If any provision of this
Agreement cannot be implemented due to the failure of such third party to consent, Altria and Kraft shall negotiate in good faith to implement the provision in a mutually satisfactory manner. The phrase “reasonable best efforts” as used

 WHEREAS, Kraft is a member of the affiliated group of corporations with respect to which Altria is the common parent corporation; 
 WHEREAS, as set forth in the Distribution Agreement by and between Altria and Kraft, dated as of January 31, 2007 (the “Distribution
Agreement”), and subject to the terms and conditions thereof, Altria will distribute on a pro rata basis to the holders of Altria common stock all of the outstanding shares of Kraft common stock then owned by Altria (the
“Distribution”); 
 WHEREAS, the Distribution is intended to qualify as a tax-free distribution to Altria and its shareholders
under Section 355 of the Code; and 
 WHEREAS, in contemplation of the Distribution, pursuant to which Kraft (and its direct and
indirect Subsidiaries) will cease to be a member of the Altria Consolidated Return Group, the Parties hereto have determined to enter into this Agreement, setting forth their agreement with respect to certain tax matters; 
 NOW, THEREFORE in consideration of the premises and mutual covenants herein contained, the Parties hereby agree as follows: 
 ARTICLE I 
 DEFINITIONS

 1.01 General. For the purposes of this Agreement, the terms set forth below shall have the following meanings. 

 “Altria Non-Food Group” means Altria and any direct or indirect Subsidiary of Altria

States Federal Income Tax return and, with respect to Combined State Taxes, in the filing of a consolidated, combined or unitary income or franchise tax return. 
 “Altria Non-Food Group Tax” means (i) the Federal Income Tax liability of the Altria Consolidated Return Group less the Kraft Federal Income Tax Liability; (ii) the Altria Combined State Tax
liability less the Kraft Combined State Tax Liability; (iii) any other Tax imposed on any member of the Altria Non-Food Group or, with respect to any taxable year, any other Tax imposed on any direct or indirect Subsidiary of Altria (excluding,
however, the Kraft Group and any direct or indirect Subsidiary of Kraft) that is not a member of the Altria Non-Food Group; and (iv) liability of any member of the Altria Non-Food Group for the payment of any amounts of the type described in
(i), (ii) or (iii) as a result of any express or implied obligation to indemnify any other person. 
 “Combined State
Tax” means, with respect to each state or local taxing jurisdiction, any income or franchise tax payable to such state or local taxing jurisdiction in which a member of the Kraft Group files tax returns with a member of the Altria
Consolidated Return Group that is not also a member of the Kraft Group on a consolidated, combined or unitary basis for purposes of such income or franchise tax. 
 “Distribution Date” shall mean the date on which the Distribution becomes effective. 
 “Distribution Taxes” shall mean any Taxes imposed on, increase in Taxes incurred by, or reduction of a Tax Asset of Altria, and any Taxes of an Altria shareholder that are paid or reimbursed by Altria, together with any

resulting from the application of Section 355(d) or Section 355(e) to the Distribution) or corresponding provisions of the laws of any other jurisdictions. Any Tax referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be determined using
the highest applicable statutory corporate income tax rate for the relevant taxable period (or portion thereof). 
 “Effective
Realization” (and the correlative term “Effectively Realized”) means, with respect to a tax saving or tax benefit, including from the use of any Tax Asset, the earliest to occur of (i) the receipt by Altria or Kraft (or any
other member of Altria Non-Food Group or Kraft Group) of cash from a Taxing Authority reflecting such tax saving or tax benefit, or (ii) the application of such tax saving or tax benefit to reduce any payments, including estimated tax payments,
with respect to (A) the tax liability on a return of any of such entities or of any consolidated group of which any of such entities is 

  

 2 

 
a member, or (B) any other outstanding tax liability of any of such entities or of any such consolidated group, provided that any reference in this
definition to tax shall include, without limitation, a reference to a recovery of statutory interest. 
 “Federal Income
Tax” means any Tax imposed under Subtitle A of the Code and any related interest and any penalties, additions to such Tax, or additional amounts imposed with respect thereto. 
 “Final Determination” shall mean (i) with respect to Federal Income Taxes, a “determination” as defined in
Section 1313(a) of the Code or execution of an Internal Revenue Service Form 870-AD and, with respect to taxes other than Federal Income Taxes, any decision, judgment, decree or other order by a court of competent jurisdiction that, under
applicable law, is not subject to further appeal, review or modification through proceedings or otherwise; (ii) a closing agreement or accepted offer in compromise under Sections 7121 or 7122 of the Code, or a comparable agreement under the
laws of a State, local, or foreign taxing jurisdiction; (iii) the payment of tax by any member of the Altria Consolidated Return Group with respect to any item disallowed or adjusted by a Taxing Authority, provided that Altria determines that
no action should be taken to recoup such payment; or (iv) any other final disposition, by mutual agreement of the Parties or by reason of the expiration of a statute of limitations or period for the filing of claims for refunds, amended
returns, or appeals from adverse determinations. 
 “Kraft Combined State Tax Liability” shall mean, with respect to any
taxable period (or portion thereof) in the Pre-Distribution Period, an amount of Combined State Taxes, including any interest, penalties and other additions to such taxes for such taxable year except to the extent attributable to Altria’s
negligence, determined by taking the total separately computed state income or franchise tax liabilities of the Kraft Group over the total separately computed state income or franchise tax liabilities of the Altria Consolidated Return Group
multiplied by the combined state income or franchise tax liability of the Altria Consolidated Return Group. 
 “Kraft Current Federal
Income Tax Provision” shall mean, with respect to any financial statement year (or portion thereof) in the Pre-Distribution Period, the sum of the Kraft Group’s current federal income tax provision determined in accordance with U.S.
Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) recorded on the Kraft Group’s books and records and reported in the Kraft Group’s published financial statements. 
 “Kraft Federal Income Tax Liability” shall mean, with respect to any taxable period (or portion thereof) in the Pre-Distribution Period,
the sum of the Kraft Group’s Federal Income Tax liability and other additions to such Taxes except to the extent attributable to Altria’s negligence (as determined under the applicable principles of agency law rather than Section 6662
of the Code) for such taxable period (or portion thereof), computed as if the Kraft Group were not and never were part of the Altria 

  

 3 

 
Consolidated Return Group, but rather were a separate affiliated group of corporations filing a consolidated United States Federal Income Tax return pursuant
to Section 1501 of the Code (provided, however, that transactions with members of the Altria Non-Food Group or between members of the Kraft Group shall be reflected according to the provisions of the consolidated return regulations promulgated

obligation to indemnify any other person. 
 “Kraft Pro Forma Combined State Return” means, for each state in which a
combined state income tax return may be filed, either a formal combined state income tax return, or, in the alternative, a schedule on which the Kraft Combined State Tax Liability is reflected. 
 “Kraft Pro Forma Federal Return” means either a formal Form 1120, or, in the alternative, a schedule on which the Kraft Federal Income
Tax Liability is reflected. 
 “Post-Distribution Period” means any taxable period (or portion thereof) beginning after the

 “Pre-Distribution Period” means any taxable period (or portion thereof)
ending on or before the close of business on the Distribution Date.

 “Tax Asset” means any federal or state net operating loss, net capital loss, general business credit, foreign tax credit, charitable
deduction, or any other loss, credit, deduction, or tax attribute which could reduce any Tax (including, without limitation, deductions, credits, alternative minimum net operating loss carryforwards related to alternative minimum taxes or additions

which a United States consolidated Federal Income Tax return is filed that includes any Pre-Distribution Period of the Kraft Group, Kraft shall pay to Altria an amount equal to the sum of the Kraft Federal Income Tax Liability for such taxable year
as shown on a Kraft Pro Forma Federal Return. For each taxable year of the Altria Consolidated Return Group for which a Combined State Tax return is filed that includes any Pre-Distribution Period of the Kraft Group, Kraft shall pay to Altria an
amount equal to the Kraft Combined State Tax Liability for such taxable year as shown on a Kraft Pro Forma Combined State Return. 
 2.02
Payment of Taxes. 
 (a) Estimated Payments. Not later than thirty days after the Distribution Date, Kraft shall identify on its
books the Kraft Current Federal Income Tax Provision for that portion of the current quarter that ends on the Distribution Date, determined in accordance with United States GAAP, and shall transfer such amount to Altria within thirty days after the
Distribution Date. 
 (b) Preparation and Delivery of Estimated Pro Formas. On a date that is at least thirty days prior to the due
date for the Altria Consolidated Return Group’s consolidated Federal Income Tax return for a taxable year to which Section 2.01 of this Agreement applies, Kraft shall deliver to Altria a Kraft Pro Forma Federal Return reflecting the Kraft
Federal Income Tax Liability on an estimated basis. On a date that is at least ten days prior to the due date for each Combined State Tax return for a taxable year to which Section 2.01 of this Agreement applies, Kraft shall deliver to Altria a
Kraft Pro Forma Combined State Return (together with the Kraft Pro Forma Federal Return, the “Kraft Pro Forma Returns”) reflecting the relevant Kraft Combined State Tax Liability on an estimated basis. Kraft’s preparation and delivery
of the Kraft Pro Forma Federal Return shall include related schedules and returns, including, but not limited to, preparation of Form 1118 or in the alternative, a schedule reflecting what is on Form 1118, for purposes of computing any separate
foreign tax credit limitation under Section 904(d) of the Code. 
 (c) Preparation and Delivery of Final Pro Formas. On or before
November 1 following the end of any taxable year to which Section 2.01 of this Agreement applies, Altria shall deliver to Kraft a Kraft Pro Forma Federal Return reflecting the Kraft Federal Income Tax Liability. On or before

returns, including, but not limited to, preparation of Form 1118 or in the alternative, a schedule reflecting what is on Form 1118, for purposes of computing any separate foreign tax credit limitation under Section 904(d) of the Code.

 (d) Reconciliation of Payments. On or before November 1 following the end of any taxable year to which Section 2.01 of
this Agreement applies, Kraft shall pay to Altria, or Altria shall pay to Kraft, as appropriate, an amount equal to the difference, if any, between: (x) the Kraft Federal Income Tax Liability reflected on the Kraft Pro Forma Federal Return for
such year; and (y) the aggregate amount of the payments of the Kraft Current Federal Income Tax Provision for such year made pursuant to Section 2.02(a) of this Agreement or Section 2(b)(i) of the prior tax sharing agreement entered
into by the Parties on April 11, 2001 (“Prior Agreement”). On or before December 15 following the end of any taxable year to which Section 2.01 of this Agreement applies, Kraft shall pay to Altria the Kraft Combined State
Tax Liability as reflected on the Kraft Pro Forma Combined State Return. 
 (e) Use of Tax Assets. If a Kraft Pro Forma Return
reflects a Tax Asset that may under applicable law be used to reduce a Federal Income Tax or Combined State Tax liability of the Altria Non-Food Group for any taxable period, Altria shall pay to Kraft, or shall reduce the amount owed by Kraft to
Altria by, an amount equal to the actual tax saving produced by such Tax Asset within thirty days after such tax saving has been Effectively Realized by the Altria Non-Food Group. The amount of any such tax saving for any taxable period shall be the
amount of the reduction in Taxes payable to a Taxing Authority with respect to such tax period, including with respect to any estimated Tax payments, as compared to the Taxes that would have been payable to a Taxing Authority by the Altria Non-Food
Group with respect to such tax period in the absence of such Tax Asset. To the extent Kraft has been compensated for any Tax Asset prior to the filing of a final tax return for any year, including with respect to any estimated payments for such
year, Altria shall pay to Kraft, or Kraft shall pay to Altria, as appropriate, the difference between the amount Effectively Realized with respect to each Tax Asset with respect to such interim payments and the amount Effectively Realized with
respect to the filing of the final tax return. 
 2.03 Carrybacks from Post-Distribution Period. 
 (a) Within thirty days after Effective Realization by the Altria Consolidated Return Group, Altria agrees to pay to Kraft the actual tax benefit from the
carryback of any Tax Asset of the Kraft Group from a Post-Distribution Period. Such benefit shall be equal to the excess of (i) the amount of Federal Income Taxes or Combined State Taxes, as the case may be, that would have been payable (or of
the Federal Income Tax or Combined State Tax refund actually receivable) by the Altria Consolidated Group for such period in the absence of such carryback, over (ii) the 

  

 7 

 
amount of Federal Income Taxes or Combined State Taxes, as the case may be, actually payable for such period (or of the Federal Income Tax or Combined State
Tax refund that would have been receivable) by the Altria Consolidated Return Group. 
 (b) If, subsequent to the payment by Altria to Kraft
of any amount pursuant to (or in accordance with the principles of) Section 2.03(a), there shall be a Final Determination that results in a disallowance or a reduction of the Tax Asset of the Kraft Group so carried back, Kraft shall repay to
Altria, within thirty days after such Final Determination, any amount that would not have been payable to Kraft pursuant to (or in accordance with the principles of) Section 2.03(a) of this Agreement had the amount of the tax benefit been
determined in light of the Final Determination. In addition, Kraft shall hold each member of the Altria Non-Food Group harmless from any penalty or interest payable by any member of the Altria Non-Food Group as a result of any such Final
Determination. Any such amount shall be paid by Kraft within thirty days of the payment by the Altria Non-Food Group of any such penalty or interest. 
 2.04 Preparation of Returns. 
 (a) For each taxable year to which Section 2.01 of this Agreement
applies that the Altria Consolidated Return Group elects to file a consolidated Federal Income Tax return as permitted by Section 1501 of the Code or any Combined State Tax return, Altria shall prepare and file such return and any other
returns, documents or statements required to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service with respect to the determination of the Federal Income Tax liability of the Altria Consolidated Return Group and with the appropriate Taxing Authorities with
respect to the determination of the Combined State Tax liability of the Altria Consolidated Return Group. With respect to such return preparation, Altria shall not discriminate among any members of the Altria Consolidated Return Group. Altria shall
have the right with respect to any consolidated Federal Income Tax returns or Combined State Tax returns that it has filed or will file to determine (i) the manner in which such returns, documents or statements shall be prepared and filed,
including, without limitation, the manner in which any item of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit shall be reported; (ii) whether any extensions should be requested; and (iii) the elections that will be made by any member of the
Altria Consolidated Return Group. Each member of the Kraft Group hereby irrevocably appoints Altria as its agent and attorney-in-fact to take any action (including the execution of documents) Altria may deem necessary or appropriate to implement
this Section 2.04. 
 (b) With respect to any Tax return other than a United States consolidated Federal Income Tax return that includes
any Pre-Distribution Period of the Kraft Group or any Combined State Tax return, the Party that bears indemnification responsibility under Article IV of this Agreement shall be responsible for the preparation and filing of such Tax return; provided,
however, that in the preparation and filing of such Tax return, such Party shall not take any position (or make any election) that is 

  

 8 

 
inconsistent with any position or election made by Altria in connection with the preparation and filing of any United States consolidated Federal Income Tax
return that includes any Pre-Distribution Period of the Kraft Group or any Combined State Tax return. 
 ARTICLE III 
 REFUNDS 
 3.01 Refunds.

 (a) If, with respect to any Kraft Group Tax, Altria receives a refund, offset or credit, Altria shall remit to Kraft within thirty days of

 4.03 Indemnification Payments. In the event that a Party is entitled to receive indemnification
under this Article IV with respect to any Tax for which there has been a Final Determination, such Party (“Indemnified Party”) shall send to the other Party (“Indemnifying Party”) an invoice requesting payment accompanied by a
statement describing in reasonable detail the amount owed and the particulars relating thereto. The Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party any payment owed under this Article IV within thirty days (or within another time period
mutually agreed to by the Parties) after the receipt of the invoice for such payment. 
 ARTICLE V 
 REPRESENTATIONS 
 5.01 Altria and
Kraft Representations. Altria and Kraft each represent that the information and representations furnished by Altria or Kraft, as the case may be, in any Tax Opinion Document are accurate and complete as of the date hereof. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 COVENANTS

 6.01 Altria and Kraft Covenants. Altria and Kraft each covenant (1) to use its best efforts to verify that the foregoing
representations made by it in Article V are accurate and complete as of the Distribution Date and (2) if, after the date hereof, it obtains information indicating, or otherwise becomes aware, that any such representations are or may be
inaccurate or incomplete, promptly to inform Altria or Kraft, as the case may be. 
 6.02 Specific Kraft Covenants. Kraft may take
actions inconsistent with the representations in Section 5.01 of this Agreement and covenants in this Section 6.02 only if, prior to taking such action, Kraft (1) provides notification, upon determining that it shall pursue such
action, to Altria of its plans with respect to such action, and promptly responds to any inquiries made by Altria following such notification, and (2) obtains Altria’s written consent to such action (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld). Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Altria consent shall not relieve Kraft of any of its liabilities or obligations under this Agreement, including, but not limited to, any Kraft indemnity obligation arising under Section 4.02(b) of
this Agreement. Kraft covenants to Altria that: 
 (a) During the two-year period following the Distribution Date, Kraft will not liquidate or
merge or consolidate with any other person in one or more transactions pursuant to which the shareholders of the other person(s) in such 

  

 11 

 
transaction(s) hold directly or indirectly a forty percent or greater interest (by vote or value) in the combined company. 
 (b) During the two-year period following the Distribution Date, Kraft and each of its Subsidiaries will not transfer all or substantially all of its
assets in a transaction, including all or substantially all of the assets of Kraft’s active trade or business used to satisfy Section 355(b) of the Code. 
 (c) During the two-year period following the Distribution Date, Kraft will continue the active conduct of its trade or business used to satisfy Section 355(b) of the Code. 
 (d) Kraft will not redeem or repurchase Kraft stock in a manner contrary to the requirements of Revenue Procedure 96-30 or in any other manner contrary
to the representations made in the Tax Opinion Document. 
 (e) During the two-year period following the Distribution Date, Kraft will not
issue, in one or more transactions, Kraft stock (or any instrument that is convertible or exchangeable into such Kraft stock) that in the aggregate represents more than a forty percent interest (by vote or value) of Kraft. 
 (f) During the two-year period following the Distribution Date, Kraft will not enter into any negotiations, agreements, understandings, or arrangements
with respect to transactions or events (including, without limitation, stock issuances, pursuant to the exercise of options or otherwise, option grants, capital contributions or acquisitions or a series of such transactions or events, but excluding
the Distribution) that may alone or in the aggregate cause the Distribution to be treated as part of a plan (i) pursuant to which one or more persons would acquire directly or indirectly stock of Kraft representing a forty percent or greater
interest (by vote or value); or (ii) which would result in a transaction described in Section 6.02(a) above. 
 (g) Kraft will not
otherwise take any action or fail to take any other action, which action or failure to act may result in Distribution Taxes. 
 (h) For
purposes of paragraphs (a), (e) and (f) of Section 6.02, whether a forty percent or greater ownership change is or would be involved in one or more transactions shall be determined under multiple methods that reflect the differing
number of Kraft shares outstanding at various times (e.g., on the Distribution Date, immediately prior to each transaction, etc.) and the method chosen shall be the one that results in the largest potential ownership change. 
  

 12 

 ARTICLE VII 
 TAX CONTESTS 
 7.01 Representation with Respect to Tax Contests. Altria shall have the right
to (i) contest, compromise, or settle any adjustment or deficiency proposed, asserted or assessed as a result of any audit of any consolidated or combined return filed by the Altria Consolidated Return Group; (ii) file, prosecute,
compromise or settle any claim for refund; and (iii) determine whether any refunds to which the Altria Consolidated Return Group may be entitled shall be received by way of refund or credited against the tax liability of the Altria Consolidated
Return Group; provided, however, that Altria shall be obligated to act in good faith with respect to any Tax Contest of any consolidated or combined return filed by the Altria Consolidated Return Group which involves a Tax or adjustment for which
Kraft is liable pursuant to this Agreement (“Kraft Tax Contest”). Specifically, Altria shall, in good faith, (i) consult with Kraft regarding its comments with respect to any such Kraft Tax Contest, including any correspondence or
filings submitted in connection therewith; (ii) consult with Kraft as to strategy and settlement decisions with respect to any Kraft Tax Contest, including any correspondence or filings submitted in connection therewith; and (iii) use its
best efforts to arrive at a settlement of any such Kraft Tax Contest that reflects the ultimate merits of the issues without taking into account the fact that Kraft is liable for the Tax or adjustment under this Agreement. 
 (a) With respect to any Kraft Tax Contest, Altria shall (i) keep Kraft informed in a timely manner of all actions taken or proposed to be taken by
Altria and (ii) timely provide Kraft with copies of any correspondence or filings submitted to any Taxing Authority in connection with any contest, litigation, compromise or settlement relating to any such adjustment in any such Tax Contest. In
addition, with respect to any Tax Contest in which a Taxing Authority has asserted a position that may result in a Kraft indemnification obligation arising under Section 4.02(b) of this Agreement, Kraft shall have the right, at its own expense,
to attend and participate in any such Tax Contest. 
 (b) The failure of Altria timely to forward notification in accordance with
Section 7.01(a) shall not relieve Kraft of any obligation to pay such Tax or adjustment or indemnify Altria, except to the extent Kraft was actually materially prejudiced by such failure, and in no event shall such failure relieve Kraft from
any other liability or obligation which it may have to Altria. 
 ARTICLE VIII 
 PAYMENTS 
 8.01 Method of Payment. All payments required by this
Agreement shall be made by (1) wire transfer to the appropriate bank account as may from time to time be designated by the Parties for such purpose, or (2) any other method agreed to by the 

  

 13 

 
Parties. All payments due under this Agreement shall be deemed to be paid when available funds are actually received by the payee. 
 8.02 Interest. Any payment required by this Agreement that is not made on or before the date required hereunder shall bear interest, from and
after such date through the date of payment, calculated at the rate determined under Section 6621(a)(2) of the Code as modified by Section 6621(c) of the Code or as otherwise determined by any relevant Taxing Authority. 
 8.03 Characterization of Payments. For all Tax purposes, the Parties hereto agree to treat, and to cause their respective affiliates to treat,
(1) any payment required by this Agreement (to the extent not otherwise treated as a payment in respect of an existing intercompany account) either as a contribution by Altria to Kraft or a distribution by Kraft to Altria, as the case may be,
occurring immediately prior to the Distribution and (2) any payment of interest or non-Federal Income Taxes by or to a Tax Authority, as taxable or deductible, as the case may be, to the Parties entitled under this Agreement to retain such
payment or required under this Agreement to make such payment, in either case, except as otherwise mandated by applicable law or a Final Determination; provided that in the event it is determined (i) pursuant to applicable law that it is more
likely than not, or (ii) pursuant to a Final Determination, that any such treatment is not permissible (or that an Indemnified Party nevertheless suffers an income Tax or other Tax detriment as a result of such payment), the payment in question
shall be adjusted to place the Indemnified Party in the same after-tax position it would have enjoyed absent such applicable law or Final Determination. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 9.01 Allocation. Altria may, at its option, elect, and the Kraft Group shall join it in electing (if necessary), to ratably allocate items (other
than extraordinary items) of the Kraft Group in accordance with relevant provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1502-76. If Altria makes such an election, the members of the Kraft Group shall provide to Altria such statements as are
required under the regulations and other appropriate assistance. 
 9.02 Payment of Reserves. Within thirty days after the
Distribution Date, Altria shall pay to Kraft an amount equal to the Federal Income Tax reserve for uncertain Tax positions attributable to the Kraft Group and recorded on the books and records of Altria as of the Distribution Date. The amount paid
by Altria to Kraft under this Section 9.02 shall include interest at the intercompany rate accruing on such reserve amounts from the later of January 1, 2001 or the various dates on which Kraft paid particular amounts to Altria with
respect to such reserve, through the date that Altria pays the amount equal to the reserve to Kraft pursuant to this Section 9.02. 
  

 14 

 9.03 Cooperation and Exchange of Information. 
 (a) Altria and Kraft shall each cooperate fully with all reasonable requests from the other Party in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax
returns, claims for refund, and audits concerning issues or other matters covered by this Agreement (including, without limitation, cooperating in meeting those deadlines as established and reasonably determined by Altria to be necessary to
facilitate the timely filing of any United States consolidated Federal Income Tax return of the Altria Consolidated Return Group). Such cooperation shall include, without limitation: 
 (i) the retention until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and the provision upon request, of Tax returns, books, records

by Taxing Authorities; 
 (ii) the execution of any document that may be necessary or reasonably helpful in connection with any audit, or
the filing of a Tax return or refund claim by a member of the Altria Non-Food Group or the Kraft Group, including certification, to the best of a Party’s knowledge, of the accuracy and completeness of the information it has supplied;

 (iii) for each taxable year of the Altria Consolidated Return Group for which a United States consolidated Federal Income Tax return is
filed that includes any Pre-Distribution Period of the Kraft Group, the use of the same tax preparation software required to facilitate the filing of the Altria Group Consolidated Return; 
 (iv) the use of the Party’s best efforts to obtain any documentation that may be necessary or reasonably helpful in connection with any of the
foregoing. Each Party shall make its employees and facilities available on a reasonable and mutually convenient basis in connection with the foregoing matters; and 
 (v) the participation in regularly scheduled meetings between the Parties to further the purposes of this Agreement. 
 (b) If a Party fails to comply with any of its obligations set forth in Section 9.03(a) of this Agreement upon reasonable request and notice by the other Party, and such failure results in the imposition of
additional Taxes, the nonperforming Party shall be liable in full for such additional Taxes. 
 9.04 Retention of Records. A
Party intending to dispose of documentation of Altria (or any other member of Altria Non-Food Group) or Kraft (or any other member of Kraft Group), including without limitation, books, records, Tax returns and all supporting schedules and
information relating thereto (after the expiration of the 

  

 15 

 
applicable statute of limitations), which relates to Tax returns described in Section 2.04 (to the extent it affects the separate Tax liability of Kraft
(or any other member of Kraft Group) or Altria (or any other member of Altria Non-Food Group) shall provide written notice to the other Party describing the documentation to be destroyed or disposed of at least sixty days prior to taking such
action. The other Party may arrange to take delivery of the documentation described in the notice at its expense during the succeeding sixty day period. The documentation described in the notice will not be disposed of without the
affirmative written consent of an officer of the notified Party.

successor provision or law. If, due to any change in applicable law or regulations or their interpretation by any court of law or other governing body having jurisdiction subsequent to the date of this Agreement, performance of any provision of this
Agreement or any transaction contemplated thereby shall become unlawful, impracticable or impossible, the Parties hereto shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the
same result as that contemplated by such provision. 
 9.07 Confidentiality. Each Party shall hold and cause its directors, officers,
employees, advisors and consultants to hold in strict confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or, in the opinion of its counsel, by other requirements of law, all information (other than any such information
relating solely to the business or affairs of such Party) concerning the other Party hereto furnished to it by such other Party or its representatives pursuant to this Agreement (except to the extent that such information can be shown to have been
(1) in the public domain through no fault of such Party, (2) later lawfully acquired from other sources not known to be under a duty of confidentiality by the Party to which it was furnished, or (3) independently developed), and each
Party shall not release or disclose such information to any other person, except its directors, officers, employees, auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, bankers and other consultants who shall be advised of and agree to be bound by the
provisions of this Section 9.07. Each Party shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to hold confidential information concerning or supplied by the other Party if it exercises the same care as it takes to preserve confidentiality for
its own similar information.

merger, acquisition of assets or otherwise, to any of the Parties hereto (including, but not limited to, any successor of Altria and Kraft succeeding to the tax
