(a) Altria and PMI will prepare and mail, prior to the Distribution Date, to the holders of Altria Common Stock, such information concerning PMI and the Distribution and such other matters as Altria reasonably determines and as may be required by Law. Each of Altria and PMI will file with the SEC any such documentation that it determines is necessary or desirable to effect the Distribution.

(b) Altria and/or PMI, as appropriate, will take all necessary action to obtain the governmental approvals and material consents that are the subject of Section 2.03(a)(i).

2.03 Conditions to Distribution.

(a) The consummation of the Distribution will be subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.03; any determination by Altria regarding the satisfaction of any of such conditions will be conclusive:

(i) All material governmental approvals and material consents necessary to consummate the Distribution shall have been received and continue to be in full force and effect;

-9-

(ii) No order, injunction, decree or regulation issued by any Governmental Authority or other legal restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of the Distribution shall be in effect and no other event outside the control of Altria shall have occurred or failed to occur that prevents the consummation of the Distribution;

(iii) The PMI Common Stock to be distributed in the Distribution shall have been accepted for listing on the New York Stock Exchange, subject to official notice of issuance.

(iv) The letter ruling Altria received from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the Tax-Free Status shall not have been revoked or modified in any material respect and Altria shall have received confirmation from its Tax Advisor that its opinion regarding the Tax-Free Status continues in effect as of the Distribution Date;

(v) A Registration Statement on Form 10 registering PMI’s Common Stock shall be effective under the Securities Exchange Act, with no stop order in effect with respect thereto, and the Information Statement included therein shall have been mailed to Altria’s stockholders; and

(vi) The actions and filings necessary under securities and blue sky laws of the states of the United States and any comparable laws under any foreign jurisdictions shall have been taken and become effective.

(b) In the event any condition set forth in this Section 2.03 shall not have been satisfied or is likely not to be satisfied on or before March 14, 2008, Altria’s Board of Directors may postpone the Record Date and/or the Distribution Date in its sole and absolute discretion. In the event the Distribution Date is for any reason postponed more than 120 days after the date hereof, it shall be an additional condition to the Distribution that Altria’s Board of Directors shall have redetermined, as of such postponed Distribution Date, that the Distribution satisfies the requirements of the Virginia Stock Corporation Act governing distributions.

2.04 Certain Shareholder Matters.

(a) Subject to Section 2.03 hereof, on the Distribution Date, Altria will deliver to a distribution agent to be appointed by Altria (the “Distribution Agent”) for the benefit of holders of record of Altria Common Stock on the Record Date, one or more stock certificates, endorsed by Altria in blank, representing all of the outstanding shares of PMI Common Stock owned by Altria, and Altria will instruct the Distribution Agent to deliver to the PMI Transfer Agent true, correct and complete copies of the stock and transfer records reflecting the holders of Altria Common Stock entitled to receive shares of PMI Common Stock in connection with the Distribution. Altria will cause its transfer agent to instruct the Distribution Agent to distribute on the Distribution Date or as soon as reasonably practicable thereafter the appropriate number of shares of PMI Common Stock to each such holder or designated transferee(s) of such holder and to credit the appropriate number of such shares to book entry accounts for each such holder or designated transferee. For shareholders who hold Altria Common Stock through a broker or other nominee, their shares of PMI Common Stock will be credited to their respective accounts by such broker or nominee. Altria will cooperate, and will instruct the Distribution Agent to

(iv) any Liability if the release of that Liability would result in the release of an insurance company or other Third Party that is not expressly released by the parties by the terms of this Section 3.02.

(d) PMI shall not make, and shall not permit any member of the PMI Group to make, any claim or demand or commence any Action asserting any claim or demand, including any claim of contribution or any indemnification, against Altria or any member of the Altria Group, or any other Person released pursuant to Section 3.02(a), with respect to any Liabilities released pursuant to Section 3.02(a).

(i) any and all PMI Group Liabilities;

(ii) the breach by PMI of any obligation of PMI under this Agreement;

-14-

3.06 Tax Considerations. Any indemnification pursuant to Sections 3.03 through 3.05 shall be (i) increased to take account of any net tax cost incurred by the Indemnified Party arising from the receipt or accrual of an Indemnity Payment hereunder (grossed up for such increase) and (ii) reduced to take account of any net tax benefit realized by the Indemnified Party arising from incurring or paying loss or other liability for which an Indemnity Payment was sought. In computing the amount of any such tax cost or tax benefit, the Indemnified Party shall be deemed to recognize all other items of income, gain, loss, deduction or credit before recognizing any item arising from the receipt or accrual of any Indemnity Payment hereunder. Any Indemnity Payment hereunder shall initially be made without regard to this Section 3.06 and shall be increased or reduced to reflect any such net tax cost (including gross-up) or net tax benefit only after the Indemnified Party has actually realized such cost or benefit. For purposes of this Agreement, an Indemnified Party shall be deemed to have “actually realized” a net tax cost or a net tax benefit to the extent that, and at such time as, the amount of taxes payable by such Indemnified Party is increased above or reduced below, as the case may be, the amount of taxes that such Indemnified Party would be required to pay but for the receipt or accrual of the Indemnity Payment or the incurrence or payment of such loss, as the case may be. The amount of any increase or reduction hereunder shall be adjusted to reflect any Final Determination with respect to the Indemnified Party’s liability for taxes, and payments between such Indemnified Parties to reflect such adjustment shall be made if necessary.

3.07 Notice and Payment of Direct Claims. If any Altria Indemnitee or PMI Indemnitee (the “Indemnified Party”) determines that it is or may be entitled to indemnification by any party (the “Indemnifying Party”) under Article III of this Agreement (other than in connection with any Action subject to Section 3.08), the Indemnified Party shall promptly deliver to the Indemnifying Party a written notice specifying, to the extent reasonably practicable, the basis for its claim for indemnification and, if then reasonably quantifiable, the amount for which the Indemnified Party reasonably believes it is or may be entitled to be indemnified. Within 30 days after receipt of that notice, the Indemnifying Party shall pay the Indemnified Party that amount in cash or other immediately available funds unless the Indemnifying Party objects to the claim for indemnification or the amount of the claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not give the Indemnified Party written notice objecting to that indemnity claim and setting forth the grounds for the objection(s) within that 30-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have acknowledged its liability for that claim and the Indemnified Party may exercise any and all of its rights under applicable Law to collect that amount. If there is a timely objection by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party in cash the amount, if any, that is Finally Determined to be required to be paid by the Indemnifying Party in respect of that indemnity claim within 15 days after that indemnity claim has been so Finally Determined.

3.08 Notice and Defense of Third-Party Claims. Promptly after the earlier of receipt of (i) notice that a Third Party has commenced an Action against or otherwise involving any Indemnified Party or (ii) information from a Third Party alleging the existence of a claim against an Indemnified Party, in either case, with respect to which indemnification may be sought under Article III of this Agreement (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnified Party shall give the Indemnifying Party written notice of the Third-Party Claim. The failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided in this Section 3.08 shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its

-15-

obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by the failure to give notice. Within 30 days after receipt of that notice, the Indemnifying Party may either (i) acknowledge its liability for that indemnification claim and assume and control the defense of that Third-Party Claim at its sole cost and expense by giving written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party; or (ii) object to the claim for indemnification set forth in the notice delivered by the Indemnified Party pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 3.08; provided, that if the Indemnifying Party does not within that 30-day period give the Indemnified Party written notice objecting to that indemnification claim and setting forth the grounds for the objection(s), the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have acknowledged its liability for that indemnification claim. If the Indemnifying Party has acknowledged liability for the indemnification claim with respect to, and assumed the defense of, a Third-Party Claim, the defense of the Indemnified Party shall be controlled by the Indemnifying Party and counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party, which counsel shall at all times during the pendency of the Third-Party Claim be reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party; and the Indemnifying Party may settle or compromise the Third-Party Claim without the prior consent of the Indemnified Party so long as any settlement or compromise of the Third-Party Claim includes an unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all claims that are the subject of that Third-Party Claim; provided, that the Indemnifying Party may not agree to any such settlement or compromise pursuant to which any Liability shall be admitted or any remedy or relief, other than monetary damages for which the Indemnifying Party shall be responsible under this Agreement, shall be applied to or against the Indemnified Party, without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate at all times in the defense of any Third-Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Party has acknowledged liability. The Indemnifying Party shall pay to the Indemnified Party in cash the amount, if any, for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to be indemnified under this Agreement within 30 days after that Third-Party Claim has been Finally Determined.

3.09 Contribution. If for any reason the indemnification provided for in Section 3.03(b) or Section 3.04(b) is unavailable to any Indemnified Party, or insufficient to hold it harmless, then the Indemnifying Party shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by that Indemnified Party as a result of the untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact in that proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnifying Party, on the one hand, and the Indemnified Party, on the other hand, in connection with those statements or omissions, which relative fault shall be determined by reference to the member of the Altria Group or PMI Group to which those statements or omissions are primarily related, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations.

3.10 Foreign Exchange. If any portion of an Indemnity Payment required to be made hereunder or under any Other Agreements is denominated in a currency other than United States dollars, the amount of such payment, at the election of the Indemnifying Party, may be reimbursed in local currency or shall be translated into United States dollars using the Foreign Exchange Rate for such currency determined in accordance with the following rules: (1) with respect to an Indemnifiable Liability arising from payment by a financial institution under a guarantee, comfort letter, letter of credit, foreign exchange contract or similar instrument, the

-16-

Foreign Exchange Rate for such currency shall be determined as of the date on which such financial institution is reimbursed; (2) with respect to an Indemnifiable Liability covered by insurance, the Foreign Exchange Rate for such currency shall be the Foreign Exchange Rate employed by the insurance company providing such insurance in settling such Indemnifiable Liability with the Indemnifying Party; and (3) with respect to an Indemnifiable Liability not described in clause (1) or (2) of this Section 3.10, the Foreign Exchange Rate for such currency shall be determined as of the date of payment to a Third Party in the case of such payments or as of the date that notice of the claim with respect to such other Indemnifiable Liability is given to the Indemnitee.

3.11 Subrogation. Upon indemnification of the Liabilities under this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to the rights of the Indemnitee against insurers or other Third Parties with respect to such assumed or indemnified amount. It is expressly agreed that no insurer or any other Third Party shall be (i) entitled to a benefit (as a third-party beneficiary or otherwise) it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of Section 3.03, 3.04 or 3.05 of this Agreement, (ii) relieved of the responsibility to pay any Insured Claims or indemnified claims or any other claims for which it is obligated or (iii) entitled to any subrogation rights with respect to any obligation hereunder. The Indemnitee shall, upon request, provide a formal assignment of a claim against an insurer or other Third Party to the Indemnifying Party with respect to the assumed or indemnified amount or shall otherwise reasonably cooperate at the Indemnifying Party’s request and expense, with any attempt by the Indemnifying Party to recoup assumed or indemnified amounts from insurers or other third parties.

3.12 Insurance Proceeds. If an Indemnitee shall receive any amount of Insurance Proceeds or any other monies from a Third Party in connection with an Indemnifiable Liability, then such monies shall be promptly paid to the Indemnifying Party, less the amount of any Indemnifiable Liability incurred by the Indemnitee for which the Indemnifying Party has not yet made the Indemnitee whole. Nothing herein shall permit any Indemnifying Party to delay or refrain from making any payment to any Indemnitee because of the availability or alleged availability of any Insurance Policy or Insurance Proceeds (provided that the foregoing shall not limit the subrogation rights of an Indemnifying Party under Section 3.11). In addition, in no event shall the availability of recovery of an assumed or indemnified amount under an Insurance Policy or other contract relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligation to make the Indemnitee whole for any deductibles, self-insured retentions, retrospective premiums or other amounts payable by the Indemnitee under the Insurance Policy or other contract with respect to any such recovery.

3.13 Exclusivity and Limitations Regarding Tobacco Product Claims. The terms of this Article III shall represent the Parties’ sole and exclusive remedy against one another with respect to Tobacco Product Claims. The Parties shall have no rights against one another pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise with respect to any Tobacco Product Claim filed 25 years or more after the date of this Agreement, even if such Tobacco Product Claim is based in whole or in part on Tobacco Products manufactured on or before December 31, 2008.

The party of which the request is made shall have the right to deny access to the Information if such party determines in its good faith that such denial is in the party’s best interests. In the event access is granted to any Information herein or in the Other Agreements to which access is restricted by Law or otherwise, the parties agree to take such actions as are reasonably necessary, proper or advisable to have such restrictions removed or to seek an exemption therefrom or to otherwise provide the requesting party with the benefit of the Information to the same extent such actions would have been taken on behalf of the requesting party had such a restriction not existed and the Distribution not occurred.

5.03 Litigation Support and Production of Witnesses.

Upon such request the affected members of the Groups shall select a Person or Persons to provide the requested assistance after conferring in good faith to determine which Person or Persons should provide such assistance. Upon such determination, the requested party agrees that the designated Person or Persons shall be made available to the requesting party upon commercially reasonable notice to the same extent such requested party would have made such Person available if the Distribution had not occurred. The requesting party agrees to cooperate with the requested party in giving consideration to business demands of such Persons.

(a) Each party hereto acknowledges that: (1) each member of the Altria Group, the PMI Group and the PM USA Group has or may obtain Information that is or may be protected from disclosure pursuant to the attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine, the common interest and joint defense doctrines or other applicable privileges (“Privileged Information”); (2) actual, threatened or future litigation, investigations, proceedings (including arbitration proceedings), claims or other legal matters have been or may be asserted by or against, or otherwise affect, some or all members of the Altria Group, the PMI Group or the PM USA Group (“Litigation Matters”); (3) members of the Altria Group, the PMI Group and the PM USA Group have or may in the future have a common legal interest in Litigation Matters, in the Privileged Information, and in the preservation of the confidential status of the Privileged Information; and (4) Altria and PMI intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Other Agreements and any transfer of Privileged Information in connection herewith or therewith shall not operate as a waiver of any applicable privilege or protection afforded Privileged Information.

(b) Each of Altria and PMI agrees, on behalf of itself and each member of the Group of which it is a member, not to disclose or otherwise waive any privilege or protection attaching to any Privileged Information relating to a member of the other Group or relating to or arising in connection with the relationship between the Groups on or prior to the Distribution Date, without providing prompt written notice to and obtaining the prior written consent of the other.

(c) Upon any member of the Altria Group, the PM USA Group or the PMI Group receiving any subpoena or other compulsory disclosure notice from a court, other Governmental Authority or otherwise that requests disclosure of Privileged Information belonging to a member of another Group, the recipient of the notice shall promptly provide to Altria or PM USA, in the case of receipt by a member of the PMI Group, or to PMI, in the case of receipt by a member of the Altria Group or the PM USA Group, a copy of such notice, the intended response, and all materials or information relating to the other Group that might be disclosed.

ARTICLE VI

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

6.01 Step Process. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any Other Agreements, or the breach thereof (a “Dispute”), shall be resolved by: (i) negotiation between senior executives with the possibility of mediation; and (ii) then binding arbitration. Each party agrees on behalf of itself and each member of its respective Group that the procedures set forth in this Article VI shall be the exclusive means for resolution of any Dispute. The initiation of mediation or arbitration hereunder will toll the applicable statute of limitations for the duration of any such proceedings.

6.02 Management Negotiation and Mediation. The parties will first attempt to resolve any Dispute by direct discussions and negotiation, including if either party elects through a written request (a “Negotiation Notice”), negotiation among senior executives of Altria and PMI. Any party asked to participate in such negotiations will use reasonable efforts to make a designated senior executive available promptly to participate in negotiations, with authority to

-21-

resolve the matter. The designated senior executives shall consult and negotiate with each other in good faith and, recognizing their mutual interests, attempt to reach a just and equitable solution satisfactory to both parties. If all parties to the Dispute agree, the parties may also attempt to settle the Dispute by a mediation administered by the AAA under its Commercial Mediation Procedures.

6.03 Arbitration.

(a) If a Dispute is not resolved within 60 days after the Negotiation Notice, any party shall have the right to commence arbitration. In that event, the Dispute shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the AAA in accordance with its International Arbitration Rules (the “Rules”). The place of arbitration shall be New York, New York. Any Dispute concerning the propriety of the commencement of the arbitration shall be finally settled by such arbitration. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof or having jurisdiction over the relevant party or its assets.

(b) The number of arbitrators shall be one if the claims in such Dispute aggregate less than $100 million, and three if the claims in such Dispute aggregate $100 million or more. If the Parties are unable to agree on the amount of the claims, there shall be three arbitrators.

(c) If one arbitrator is to be chosen, the parties agree to seek to reach agreement on the identity of the sole arbitrator within 30 days after the initiation of arbitration. If the parties do not reach agreement on the sole arbitrator within that time period, then the AAA shall appoint the sole arbitrator.

(d) If three arbitrators are to be chosen, the claimant shall appoint an arbitrator in its request for arbitration. The respondent shall appoint an arbitrator within 20 days of the receipt of the request for arbitration. The two arbitrators shall appoint a third arbitrator who shall serve as chair of the tribunal within 30 days after the appointment of the second arbitrator. If any of the three arbitrators is not appointed within the time prescribed above, then the AAA shall appoint that arbitrator.

6.04 Injunctive Relief. At any time during the resolution of a Dispute between the parties, either party has the right to apply to any court of competent jurisdiction for interim relief, including pre-arbitration attachments or injunctions, necessary to preserve the parties’ rights or to maintain the parties’ relative positions until such time as the arbitration award is rendered or the Dispute is otherwise resolved.

6.05 Remedies. The arbitrator(s) shall have no authority or power to limit, expand, alter, amend, modify, revoke or suspend any condition or provision of this Agreement nor any right or power to award punitive or treble (or other multiple) damages.

6.06 Expenses. Each party shall bear its own expenses and attorneys’ fees in pursuit and resolution of any Dispute. The parties shall share equally the costs and expenses (including the fees of any neutral mediator or arbitrator) of any mediation or arbitration hereunder.

The PMI Group shall be solely responsible for any and all deductibles, self-insured retentions, retrospective premiums, claims handling and other charges owed, including defense costs, under the Insurance Policies with respect to the coverage provided for Insured PMI Claims.

(b) To the extent permitted under the terms of any applicable Insurance Policy, without limiting the availability of subrogation rights as an Indemnifying Party under Section 3.11, the assets of Altria shall include any and all rights of an insured party including rights of indemnity and the right to be defended by or at the expense of the insurer, and to receive Insurance Proceeds under any Insurance Policies other than the rights under any Insurance Policies which are solely assets of PMI.

(b) PMI shall be responsible for (1) Insurance Administration of the Insurance Policies which insure the PMI Group only, and (2) Claims Administration with respect to any liabilities of any member of the PMI Group, any assets of the PMI Group, or any claims as to which the PMI Group has rights of reimbursement or subrogation pursuant to this Agreement or any Other Agreements.

(c) The parties hereto shall cooperate with regards to Insurance Administration, and shall share material information concerning such matters so that both the PMI Group and the Altria Group are aware on a continuing basis of remaining aggregate limits of coverage, deductible payments, retrospective premium payments and other material matters relevant to continued dealings with insurers providing coverage for Liabilities of both Groups.

(d) Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed or deemed to affect in any way the right of Altria to obtain and administer future insurance policies or to enter into future indemnification agreements with Third Parties on whatever terms it believes to be advisable, including the entry into insurance policies covering Altria and its Subsidiaries; provided that, with respect to such future policies or agreements, Altria shall take no action that has an adverse impact on the insurance coverage (and related costs) afforded to PMI under this Article VIII, without the prior written consent of PMI (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

8.03 Allocation of Insurance Proceeds; Cooperation. Except as otherwise provided in Section 3.12, the parties shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that Insurance Proceeds received with respect to claims, costs and expenses under the Insurance Policies shall be paid to Altria with respect to Altria Liabilities and to PMI with respect to the PMI Liabilities.

8.05 No Reduction of Coverage. Except for reduction in coverage resulting from submission and payment of claims, neither party shall take any action to eliminate or reduce

-24-
