[EXECUTIVE TRUST ARRANGEMENT]

FORM OF

RESTATED EMPLOYEE GRANTOR TRUST

ENROLLMENT AGREEMENT

This agreement (the “Agreement”), made the day of , 2008, between [Executive] (the “Employee”), the person, if any, to whom the Employee is legally married (the “Employee’s Spouse”), and Philip Morris International Inc. (“PMI”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”). This Agreement provides for payments to or on behalf of the Employee, to be made by PMI in discharge of its obligations under the PMI Supplemental Plans to the extent specified herein.

Introduction

The Employee previously entered into one or more Employee Grantor Trust Enrollment Agreements with Altria Group, Inc. and certain of its affiliates (collectively, “Altria”) (the most recent of which, including any amendments thereto, hereinafter referred to as the “Original Enrollment Agreement”) providing for payments to or on behalf of the Employee by Altria in satisfaction of its obligations under certain supplemental plans maintained by Altria (the “Altria Supplemental Plans”), such payments to be made to an Employee Grantor Trust established by the Employee (the “Trust”). Pursuant to one or more Supplemental Employee Grantor Trust Enrollment Agreements between the Employee and Altria, all amounts deposited in the Trust under the terms of the Original Enrollment Agreement and any predecessors thereto is held in a separate subaccount of the Trust (hereinafter referred to as “Subaccount FP-A”).

The Company subsequently established the Philip Morris International Inc. Benefit Equalization Plan and the Philip Morris International Inc. Supplemental Management Employees’ Retirement Plan (the “PMI Supplemental Plans”). In connection with the spin-off of the Company from Altria, the liabilities attributable to the Employee under the Altria Supplemental Plans will be transferred to the Company, and the benefits previously payable to the Employee under the Altria Supplemental Plans will be payable to the Employee under the PMI Supplemental Plans.

The parties now wish (1) to acknowledge that, as a result of the spin-off of the Company, the obligations under the Original Enrollment Agreement run solely among the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse, if any, and the Company and do not involve Altria and (2) to enter into this Agreement, which will apply to those benefits payable under the PMI Supplemental Plans.

-1-

In consideration of their mutual undertakings, the Company, PMI, the Employee, and the Employee’s Spouse agree as follows:

I. Maintenance of Grantor Trust

1.1 The Employee agrees to restate and maintain the Trust in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Employee Grantor Trust Agreement”) for the purpose of receiving and holding the cash deposits made pursuant to this Agreement and any interest or other earnings on the outstanding balances in the Trust. Any deposits made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made to Subaccount FP-A.

1.2 The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse, if any, agree that they will not directly contribute any additional funds to the Trust. The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse also understand that assets held in the Trust will be available for distribution or withdrawal only (a) after the Employee’s retirement, death or other termination of employment with the Company (which may include termination by reason of long-term disability), (b) in certain circumstances where there has been a transfer of the Employee’s employment with the Company to a foreign jurisdiction resulting in a termination of the Trust, (c) in other limited circumstances permitted under the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement (Exhibit A), and (d) to the extent that Trust withdrawals are necessary to pay taxes on Trust earnings or cash deposits.

1.3 The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse, if any, understand that, under the terms of the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement, the Trustee intends to exercise its investment discretion in a manner consistent with the purpose of the Trust specified in Section I.(3) of the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement and acknowledge that they have been informed that the Trustee currently intends to invest the Trust assets in one or more of the Fidelity Freedom Funds in the manner set forth in Item 3 of Schedule A of the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement attached as Exhibit A, but that the Trustee retains discretion to change the assets in which the Trust will be invested.

II. Payments to Trust

2.1 The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse understand that from time to time the Company may determine in its discretion that it is appropriate to make available to the Employee additional funding payments in satisfaction of its obligations under the PMI Supplemental Plans. Unless the Employee terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 7.2 prior to the time such additional funding payments are to be paid into the Trust, the Employee directs the Company (a) to deduct federal, state, local and other applicable income taxes from such additional funding payments and remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities; and (b) to pay the remainder of such additional funding payments into the Trust.

III. Distributions from Trust, Benefit Payments

3.1 The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse, if any, agree that any amounts made available from Subaccount FP-A of the Trust, adjusted as provided below to account for time elapsed between the date assets are made available from the Trust and the date benefits are payable from the PMI Supplemental Plans and adjusted for amounts distributed to pay taxes on Trust earnings or administrative expenses of the Trust, shall offset the benefits otherwise payable to either of them or to any Plan Beneficiary under the PMI Supplemental Plans. To effect the implementation of this provision, the Employee and the Employee’s Spouse, if any, agree specifically as follows:

-2-

(a)

Notwithstanding any provision of the PMI Supplemental Plans, or of any agreement with the Company made prior to the date of this Agreement, allowing or requiring payment of benefits in another form, and except as otherwise provided in Section 3.1(k), all benefits payable to the Employee or the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary under each of the PMI Supplemental Plans shall be paid only in the form of a single lump sum payment (calculated using the actuarial assumptions employed under the relevant PMI Supplemental Plan), and such payment shall be made at the time benefits otherwise become payable to the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary under the provisions of the PMI Supplemental Plans (the “Distribution Date”). If the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse or Employee’s Beneficiary becomes entitled to a benefit under the PMI Supplemental Plans that is not payable in the form of a lump sum under the relevant provisions of such plans, before amendment by the Original Enrollment Agreement, such benefit shall be converted to and shall be payable as a lump sum, notwithstanding any contrary provisions of such plans, based on the actuarial equivalence conversion factors set forth in the relevant sections of the PMI Retirement Plan for Salaried Employees.

(b)

All benefits that would otherwise be payable with respect to a PMI Supplemental Plan on the Distribution Date shall be offset by an amount determined with reference to the fair market value of the assets made available for distribution from Subaccount FP-A of the Trust on the date such assets are made available following retirement, death, disability, other termination of employment or any other event described in Section 1.2 of this Agreement or in the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement resulting in making such funds available for distribution (the “Availability Date”). For this purpose, (1) Trust assets shall be treated as made available as of the earlier of (i) the actual date on which the Trust terminates as determined under Section I.(7) of the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement attached as Exhibit A hereto or (ii) the date on which PMI and its designees cease to serve as Administrator of the Trust and (2) fair market value shall be determined as of the close of the business day of the Trustee immediately preceding the Availability Date. In any case where the Availability Date occurs after the Distribution Date or is coincident with or precedes the Distribution Date of PMI Supplemental Plan benefits by less than 30 days, the offset will occur as of the Distribution Date, without any further adjustment, based on the fair market value of the Trust assets made available as of the Availability Date. However, where the Availability Date precedes the relevant Distribution Date by 30 or more calendar days the offset will not occur until the relevant Distribution Date and the Trust assets available as of the Availability Date will be adjusted as provided in subsection (d) to reflect

-3-

their assumed fair market value as of the Distribution Date. The actual or assumed fair market value of the assets on the relevant date is hereinafter referred to as the “Offset Amount.”

(c)

For purposes of calculating the PMI Supplemental Plan benefits to be offset, the amount otherwise payable under the PMI Supplemental Plans at the relevant Distribution Date to the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary will be converted to an after-tax amount (the “After-Tax Benefit”) using the tax assumptions set forth in Exhibit B; and the Offset Amount, as determined herein, shall offset the amount of the After-Tax Benefit and shall discharge the Company’s liability to the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary to the extent of the corresponding pre-tax benefit otherwise payable under the PMI Supplemental Plans.

(d)

If the Employee terminates employment for any reason or any other event occurs which makes the funds in the Trust available for distribution on an Availability Date, or if PMI ceases to serve as “Administrator” under Article V below, 30 or more calendar days before the Distribution Date on which a lump sum distribution is to be made under the PMI Supplemental Plans and this Agreement, then the Offset Amount on such Distribution Date shall be determined as follows:

(1)

It shall be assumed that the fair market value of the assets of Subaccount FP-A of the Trust on the Availability Date resulting from such event (or on the date PMI ceases to serve as Administrator, if earlier) continued to be invested by the Trustee until the Distribution Date in the same manner in which the Trustee invests the assets held in such a Trust established by a similarly situated employee of the Company (a “Similarly Situated Trust”), and if at any time the Trustee reinvests the assets of such a Similarly Situated Trust it shall be assumed that the assets attributable to the Employee have been reinvested in the same manner. If at any time there is no Similarly Situated Trust but the Trustee is investing the assets of other Trusts in the manner set forth in Item 3 of Schedule A of the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement attached as Exhibit A (or in any other manner permitting objective determination how the Trustee would invest the assets of a Similarly Situated Trust), it shall be assumed for this purpose that the assets attributable to the Employee have been invested in the same manner.

-4-

(2)

It shall be further assumed that federal, state and local income taxes on the resulting deemed investment income (calculated using the tax assumptions set forth in Exhibit B) have been paid from the assets of the deemed Subaccount FP-A of the Trust.

(3)

The amount so determined as the fair market value of the deemed Subaccount FP-A Trust assets as of the Distribution Date, as determined using the assumptions in this subsection (d), shall be the Offset Amount, which shall be offset against the benefits otherwise payable under the PMI Supplemental Plans on the Distribution Date, in the manner provided in subsection (c) above.

(4)

For any periods during which there is no Similarly Situated Trust and the manner in which such assets would be invested cannot be determined by reference to Item 3 of Schedule A of Exhibit A or as otherwise provided in paragraph (1) of this subsection (d), then paragraph (1) shall be applied by crediting interest at the average annual interest rate provided by Internal Revenue Code section 417(e)(3) for the month of December preceding the first year in which such determination cannot be made and for each successive December during the period for which the calculation is being performed.

(e)

All amounts held in Subaccount FP-A of the Trust as of the Availability Date (and any adjustments to such amounts) shall be applied in the manner provided above to offset the lump sum payment due from the PMI Supplemental Plans on a Distribution Date, whether or not the Employee or the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary chooses to take an actual distribution of such amounts from the Trust on such date or enters into a new trust agreement with Fidelity Management Trust Company or any other trustee with regard to some or all of the Trust assets.

(f)

If lump sum benefit payments become due under the provisions of the PMI Supplemental Plans and this Agreement on Distribution Dates occurring at different times, the Trust assets available or deemed available shall be fully applied, to the extent of the Offset Amount at the relevant Distribution Date, to offset the benefit payments that would otherwise be due in the order determined by the Company.

(g)

Notwithstanding any provisions of the PMI Supplemental Plans or of any agreement with the Company made prior to the date of this Agreement to the contrary, the Employee will not be entitled to designate any beneficiary to receive benefits under the PMI Supplemental Plans following the death of the Employee other than the surviving spouse of the Employee, except

-5-

that (i) the Employee, whether or not married, may designate a beneficiary to receive his or her benefits attributable to any portion of a PMI Supplemental Plan which provides a profit-sharing, thrift or other defined contribution benefit if the provisions of that plan allow such a designation (any such beneficiary being referred to herein as the “Plan Beneficiary”) and (ii) certain persons may become a Plan Beneficiary pursuant to Section 6.1. If a person who is an Employee’s Spouse under this Section 3.1(g) ceases to be legally married to the Employee, he or she shall cease to be the Employee’s Spouse hereunder and shall cease to have any right to benefits under the PMI Supplemental Plans other than any rights as a designated Plan Beneficiary under the defined contribution portion of a PMI Supplemental Plan or as provided in Section 6.1. Furthermore, if the Employee has at any future date a spouse other than the Employee’s Spouse named in this Agreement, the Employee shall obtain the agreement of such spouse to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, and the new spouse shall in any event become the Employee’s Spouse for purposes of Sections 3.1(g) and (h).

(h)

All amounts in the Trust at an Availability Date that results from the death of the Employee shall be paid to the Employee’s Spouse, except to the extent that the Employee has designated another Plan Beneficiary to receive the benefits provided under any defined contribution portion of a PMI Supplemental Plan and except to the extent amounts in the Trust are otherwise payable under any court order binding on the PMI Supplemental Plans or on the Trustee to a person other than the Employee’s Spouse. In the case of an Employee who has no spouse on the Availability Date resulting from the Employee’s death, and subject to the same exceptions as are noted in the immediately preceding sentence, all amounts then held in the Trust as well as any additional benefits that become payable under the PMI Supplemental Plans on a contemporaneous or subsequent Distribution Date shall be paid to the persons named as beneficiaries of “Residual Assets” of the Trust in the “Beneficiary Designation” executed by the Employee in connection with his or her Employee Grantor Trust Agreement or, in the absence of effective designations, to the Employee’s estate.

(i)

If the Employee becomes disabled and, as a result, becomes entitled to long-term disability benefits that on the Employee’s attaining a prescribed age are reduced by amounts paid as an annuity under the PMI Supplemental Plans, then the reduction in such long-term disability benefits shall be computed by taking into account the annuity value of the pre-tax equivalent of the Offset Amount, as well as the annuity value of any remaining amounts payable under the PMI Supplemental Plans after reduction by the Offset Amount, using the actuarial assumptions employed at the attainment of such prescribed age under the relevant PMI Supplemental Plans to convert between single sum amounts and their annuity value equivalents.

-6-

(j)

If the Employee dies and as a result the Employee’s Spouse becomes entitled to benefit payments under the Survivor Income Benefit Equalization Plan (“SIB Payments”) that would be reduced by amounts payable as an annuity under the Supplemental Plans, then the reduction in such SIB Payments shall be computed by taking into account the annuity value of the pre-tax equivalent of the Offset Amount, as well as the annuity value of any remaining amounts payable under the Supplemental Plans after reduction by the Offset Amount, using the actuarial assumptions employed under the relevant Supplemental Plan at the date the SIB Payments would first be reduced by benefit payments otherwise payable under such Supplemental Plans to convert between single sum amounts and their annuity value equivalents.

(k)

If there is outstanding at the date of this Agreement any domestic relations or other court order requiring the Company to make payment of benefits under any PMI Supplemental Plan to a former spouse or dependent of the Employee, the payee of such benefits shall not be an Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary under this Agreement and such benefits shall remain payable in the manner contemplated by such order. The Funding Payment contemplated by this Agreement shall be computed by excluding any benefits payable under the PMI Supplemental Plans to any person other than the Employee pursuant to such an order, and no portion of the Offset Amount shall reduce or otherwise affect the payment of benefits pursuant to such order.

3.2 If the Offset Amount at the Distribution Date, determined as provided in Section 3.1 above and as otherwise provided below for purposes of this Section 3.2, is less than the After-Tax Benefit, the difference between the After-Tax Benefit and the Offset Amount shall be converted to a pre-tax amount (the “Additional Pre-Tax Benefit”) based on the tax assumptions set forth in Exhibit B, and the Company shall pay in the form of a lump sum payment an amount equal to the Additional Pre-Tax Benefit to the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary from the general assets of the relevant participating employer in satisfaction of any remaining obligations of the Company under the PMI Supplemental Plans. If the Employee at any time enters into or has entered into a Cash Enrollment Agreement or Agreements with the Company or any other Grantor Trust Enrollment Agreement, pursuant to which amounts are to be applied to and offset against amounts due under the PMI Supplemental Plans, the Offset Amount for purposes of this Section 3.2 shall consist of the Offset Amount determined under Section 3.1 of this Agreement without regard to any such other agreements and the aggregate amount determined as an offset amount under the terms of each of such other agreements. The recipient will be responsible for taxes on any Additional Pre-Tax Benefit payable under this Section 3.2.

-7-

3.3 If at the Availability Date the Employee (or in the event of the Employee’s death, the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary) wishes to withdraw the Trust assets in cash he or she may direct the Trustee in writing to liquidate the Trust assets and distribute the proceeds on the Availability Date. In the absence of such written direction, the assets in the Trust on the Availability Date shall be distributed to the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary, as relevant, in kind to the extent feasible and otherwise in cash, except to the extent any new trust agreement entered into between the Employee (or the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary) and Fidelity Management Trust Company as contemplated by Section I.(7) of the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement otherwise provides.

3.4 Under no circumstances whatsoever shall the Company or the Administrator have any interest in, or be entitled to receive, any of the Trust assets. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement, to the extent that any such assets are recovered by the Company (or any trustee, creditor or other representative of the Company or its estate) the Offset Amount will be calculated as if such assets had not been deposited in the Trust.

3.5 The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse agree that this Agreement shall supersede the Original Enrollment Agreement and that Altria shall have no further obligations to them under the Altria Supplemental Plans, the Original Enrollment Agreement or any predecessors thereto.

IV. Tax Payments With Respect to Trust Earnings

4.1 For the period while the Employee remains actively employed by the Company, the Company may make payments to the Employee or the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary to cover federal, state, local and other applicable income taxes with respect to any earnings of the Trust and any income taxes as a result of the Company’s payment of the Employee’s taxes under this Article IV. The Employee, the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary, if any, direct the Company (a) to deduct federal, state, local and other applicable income and employment taxes with respect to any such payment and to remit such taxes to the appropriate authorities and (b) to pay the remainder of such amount to the Employee (or, in the event of the Employee’s death, to the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary) in cash. To the extent that the Company does not make payments sufficient (using the tax assumptions set forth in Exhibit B) to pay such taxes, Trust assets will be distributed to provide any additional amounts required for such purpose.

V. Appointment of PMI as Agent

5.1 The Employee appoints PMI and such persons as may be designated to act on behalf of PMI as his or her duly authorized agent for the following purposes: (a) providing, in accordance with the duties of the “Administrator” as set forth in the form of Employee Grantor Trust Agreement attached as Exhibit A, information and direction to the trustee of the Trust; (b) removing the trustee and appointing a successor trustee of the Trust; (c) examining the books and records of the Trust; (d) amending the Trust as to ministerial matters (and as to other matters, with the consent of the Employee); and (e) terminating the Trust.

-8-

5.2 The Employee’s appointment of PMI as his or her agent is based on the Employee’s special trust and confidence in PMI, its management. In the event of a Change of Control (as defined in Section 8.5) of PMI, the Employee (or, if applicable, the Employee’s Spouse or Beneficiaries under the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement) may remove PMI (or its successor) and any designee of PMI as the duly authorized agent for purposes of carrying out the actions set forth in Section 5.1 by delivering to both PMI (or its successor) and the trustee of the Trust, within any period of two days, written notice of such removal. The trustee shall not be required to verify that there has been a Change of Control and shall be entitled to rely upon the Employee’s notice of removal unless PMI provides to the trustee (within 10 days following the trustee’s receipt of the notice of removal from the Employee) written notice certifying that no Change of Control has occurred. From and after the date on which PMI (or its successor) ceases to serve as the duly authorized agent, the offsets against the Company’s obligations to the Employee and the Employee’s Spouse under the PMI Supplemental Plans shall be determined in the manner set forth in Section 3.1(d) and by assuming that amounts are available for distribution from the Trust at the proper times and in the proper amounts.

5.3 PMI shall cease to be the Employee’s agent upon termination of the Trust for any reason provided in the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement set forth in Exhibit A or upon removal of PMI as Administrator following a Change of Control as provided in Section 5.2 above.

VI. Assignment and Attachment of Trust Assets

6.1 The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse understand and agree that they may not receive any amounts from the Trust at any time earlier than the Availability Date. Thus, should any amounts under the Trust be assigned to the Employee’s Spouse or any other party pursuant to a domestic relations order or otherwise, the Employee’s Spouse agrees that such amounts shall not be payable under such order until the Availability Date. The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse understand and agree that should any amount under Subaccount FP-A of the Trust be assigned to the Employee’s Spouse under any such domestic relations order or otherwise, an Offset Amount shall be calculated with respect to such amount in the manner set forth in Section 3.1(d) as if the amount so assigned had remained in such subaccount of the Trust, accumulated earnings, and been distributed at the proper time. The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse agree that the Offset Amount so calculated shall be offset against a like amount of After-Tax Benefit payable under the PMI Supplemental Plans at the Distribution Date and shall discharge the Company’s liability to the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse and Plan Beneficiary to the extent of the corresponding pre-tax benefit otherwise payable to the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary under the PMI Supplemental Plans, as provided in Section 3.1. If any domestic relations or other order issued on or after the date of this Agreement requires payment of benefits under the PMI Supplemental Plans to a person by virtue of such person having been the Employee’s spouse or to any dependent of such person, the person to whom such benefits are required to be paid shall be a Plan Beneficiary within the meaning of Sections 3.1(g) and (h). If the Employee or the Employee’s Spouse resides in a community property state, the Employee and the Employee’s Spouse understand and agree that all amounts held in the Trust shall be treated as the Employee’s separate property to the extent permitted by applicable law.

-9-

6.2 The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse understand and agree that in the event all or a portion of the funds in Subaccount FP-A of the Trust are attached by court order or other legal process or are otherwise alienated to third parties, or if amounts are otherwise distributed from the Trust for any reason (other than for the payment of administrative expenses of the Trust) not described in Sections 3.1 or 4.1, the Offset Amount will be calculated as if the amount so alienated or distributed remained in the Trust, had been invested in the same manner as amounts that actually remain in the Trust, was available for distribution at the proper time, and was or is to be offset against benefits otherwise payable from the PMI Supplemental Plans at the appropriate Distribution Date, in the manner specified in Section 3.1. To the extent that for any calendar year or portion thereof no assets remain in the Trust, the amounts so alienated or distributed shall be deemed to have been invested as provided in Section 3.1(d). The Employee and the Employee’s Spouse agree that the Offset Amount shall be offset against a corresponding amount of After-Tax Benefit, and shall discharge the Company’s liability to the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse or Plan Beneficiary to the extent of the corresponding pre-tax benefit otherwise payable under the PMI Supplemental Plans.

VII. Termination

7.1 This Agreement shall terminate 30 days after the date all benefits are paid from the PMI Supplemental Plans.

7.2 Notwithstanding the above, during the lifetime of the Employee, this Agreement may be terminated at any time by PMI or the Company upon providing 30 days written notice to the Employee, or by the Employee providing 30 days written notice (or such lesser period as the Company may prescribe) to PMI and the Company. Any such termination shall operate on a prospective basis only and shall not operate to release the funds already in the Trust or to otherwise alter the application of the terms of this Agreement to such funds.

VIII. Miscellaneous

8.1 Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to confer upon the Employee the right to continue in the employment of the Company, or to require the Company to continue the employment of the Employee.

8.2 This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of PMI, the Company, their successors and assigns, the Employee, the Employee’s Spouse, the Employee’s Plan Beneficiary and the Employee’s Beneficiary(ies) under the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement, and their heirs, executors, other successors in interest, administrators, and legal representatives.

8.3 The validity and interpretation of this Agreement shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York.

-10-

8.4 The Employee’s Plan Beneficiary shall be the person or persons the Employee has designated to receive benefits following the Employee’s death under any defined contribution portion of a PMI Supplemental Plan or as otherwise provided in Sections 3.1(g) or 6.1, and the Employee’s Beneficiary(ies) with respect to the Trust shall be determined in accordance with the terms of the trust agreement pursuant to which the Trust is maintained.

8.5 Change of Control. For the purpose of this Agreement, a “Change of Control” shall mean:

(a)

Consummation of the acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 20% or more of either (i) the then outstanding shares of common stock of PMI (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or (ii) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of PMI entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”); provided, however, that the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of Control: (i) any acquisition directly from PMI or any corporation or other entity controlled by PMI (the “Affiliated Group”), (ii) any acquisition by a member of the Affiliated Group, (iii) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by a member of the Affiliated Group or (iv) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction which complies with clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of subsection (c) of this Section 8.5; or

(b)

Individuals who, as of the date hereof, constitute the Board of Directors of PMI (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors of PMI (the “Board”); provided, however, that any individual becoming a director subsequent to the date hereof whose election, or nomination for election by the stockholders of PMI, was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose, any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board; or

(c)

-11-

(d)

Consummation of (i) a complete liquidation or dissolution of PMI or (ii) the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of PMI, other than to a corporation, with respect to which following such sale or other disposition, (A) more than 60% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of such corporation and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such sale or other disposition in substantially the same proportion as their ownership, immediately prior to such sale or other disposition, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (B) less than 20% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of such corporation and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation entitled to vote generally in the election of directors is then beneficially owned, directly or indirectly, by any Person (excluding any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of any member of

(e)

Entry of an order for relief against PMI as debtor in a case under the United States Bankruptcy Code, as amended.

8.6 If no Employee’s Spouse signs this Agreement, the Employee hereby certifies that he or she has no spouse as of the date of this Agreement and further agrees to obtain the signature of any spouse to whom he or she may become married in the future as a party to this Agreement as set forth in Section 3.1(b).

8.7 It is understood and agreed that all rights and obligations arising out of this Agreement relating to any spouse, Plan Beneficiary, Trust Beneficiary(ies) under the Employee Grantor Trust Agreement or any other third parties are derived from the rights of the Employee under this Agreement and that all provisions of this Agreement relating to any such third parties are to be construed as binding on such third parties as if they had expressly agreed in writing to such provisions.

EXHIBIT A

ANTICIPATED FORM OF

RESTATED EMPLOYEE GRANTOR TRUST AGREEMENT

THIS TRUST AGREEMENT made the day of , 2008, between [EXECUTIVE] (hereinafter called the “Grantor”) and FIDELITY MANAGEMENT TRUST COMPANY (hereinafter called the “Trustee”),

W I T N E S S E T H T H A T:

WHEREAS, the Grantor previously established a trust (hereinafter referred to as the “Trust Fund”) to hold certain cash payments actually or constructively received by the Grantor, or by the Trustee on behalf of the Grantor, in lieu of certain future payments the Grantor would otherwise be entitled to receive from Altria Group, Inc. or its subsidiaries (“Altria”) pursuant to the terms of certain nonqualified supplemental benefit plans maintained by Altria (the “Altria Supplemental Plans”); and

WHEREAS, the Grantor has entered into certain agreements with Altria (the “Enrollment Agreements”) specifying the manner and extent to which amounts the Grantor will receive as payments from the Trust Fund reduce the payments the Grantor would otherwise be entitled to receive pursuant to the terms of the Altria Supplemental Plans or from other arrangements with Altria and otherwise modifying the application of the Altria Supplemental Plans; and

WHEREAS, Altria’s liability with respect to the Grantor under the Altria Supplemental Plans will have been transferred to Philip Morris International Inc. (“PMI”) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) in connection with the spin-off of the Company from Altria Group, Inc. and the benefits previously payable to the Grantor under the Altria Supplemental Plans will be payable to the Grantor under the plans specified in Schedule A annexed hereto (hereinafter referred to as the “PMI Supplemental Plans”); and

WHEREAS, the Grantor, the Grantor’s spouse, if any, and the Company have restated the most recent Enrollment Agreement, as amended, to clarify that the obligations and responsibilities owing to the Grantor under the Enrollment Agreements and the previously executed trust agreement are the obligations and responsibilities of the Company and specifically to appoint PMI to act as the Grantor’s agent in connection with certain matters pertaining to the administration of the Trust Fund; and

WHEREAS, the Grantor and the Trustee desire to restate the terms and conditions under which the Trust Fund is held;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and covenants herein contained, the Grantor hereby directs the Trustee to maintain the Trust Fund pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement and to have and to hold the Trust Fund together with any additions thereto upon the following express trust and with the powers, authorities and discretions hereinafter conferred:

ARTICLE I

Introduction

I. (1). Name. This agreement and the trust hereby evidenced may be referred to as the “Trust Agreement” or the Grantor’s “Employee Grantor Trust.”

I. (2). The Trust Fund. The “Trust Fund” as at any date means all property then held by the Trustee under this agreement.

I. (3). Purpose of the Trust. In entering into this agreement, the Grantor intends for the Trust Fund to be invested solely to augment the retirement savings of the Grantor. Specifically, having directed the Company to pay to the Trustee for holding and investment as the Trust Fund certain amounts made available by the Company to the Grantor, the Grantor intends for these amounts to be invested in a manner that seeks to produce at Grantor’s expected retirement age Trust Fund assets approximating after-tax values that, in the absence of the payments made at the Grantor’s direction to the Trustee, would instead have been provided for Grantor under the PMI Supplemental Plans. To that end, in determining the appropriate investment strategy for the Trust Fund, the Grantor expressly authorizes the Trustee to take into consideration only the Grantor’s age and the Grantor’s expected age of retirement and agrees that, for this purpose, the Grantor’s expected age of retirement shall be assumed to be the age determined under the table set forth as Item 3 of Schedule A annexed hereto. The Trustee shall have no duty to inquire into or to consider any other needs of the Grantor in determining the appropriate investment strategy for the Trust Fund, including, but not limited to, any other resources available to the Grantor; any other assets the Grantor may own or have an interest in; the Grantor’s risk tolerance; the Grantor’s investment experience and attitudes; and the Grantor’s needs for liquidity, regularity of income, and preservation or appreciation of capital prior to the termination of the Employee Grantor Trust. Neither shall the Trustee have a duty to inquire into or consider any other needs (including but not limited to those referred to in the immediately preceding sentence) of the Grantor’s Beneficiary(ies). The Trustee may rely on the Grantor’s age and the Grantor’s expected age of retirement as set forth or determined under such Schedule A, and shall have no duty to inquire into the validity of such information. The Trustee shall incur no liability to the Grantor or any other person interested in the Trust Fund for reliance upon the express terms of this paragraph, or for any action or omission in reliance upon information provided on Schedule A or by the Administrator (as defined in Section I.(5) below).

I. (4). Status of the Trust. The trust shall be irrevocable until such time as the Grantor (or, in the event of the Grantor’s death, the Grantor’s Beneficiary(ies), as defined in Section I.(8) below) and the Administrator jointly provide written certification to the Trustee that all obligations of the Company to the Grantor and the Grantor’s Beneficiaries have been satisfied. The written certification of the Administrator shall specify the date as of which the trust shall terminate in accordance with Section I.(7) hereof. The trust is intended to constitute a grantor trust under which the Grantor is treated as grantor and owner pursuant to Sections 671 - 678 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and shall be construed accordingly. Neither the Company nor any person other than the Grantor and, in the event of the Grantor’s death, the Grantor’s Beneficiary(ies), and the Trustee acting as such, have any right, title or interest in the assets of the Trust Fund.

I. (5). The Administrator. PMI shall be the “Administrator” for purposes of this trust and shall have certain powers, rights and duties under this agreement as described below; provided that, PMI may from time to time designate a person or persons, who may but need not be employees of PMI, to act as the Administrator on its behalf or to carry out certain duties of the Administrator. PMI will certify to the Trustee from time to time the person or persons authorized to act on behalf of PMI as the Administrator or as the designees of the Administrator. The Trustee may rely on the latest certificate received without further inquiry or verification. After delivery to the Trustee of the written certification of PMI acting as Administrator referred to in the first sentence of Section I.(4) above, and as of the scheduled termination date of the trust referred to in Section I.(7) below or at such later date as the distribution of all assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to the termination of this trust is completed, PMI and its designees, if any, shall cease to serve as Administrator. Notwithstanding any provision herein, however, in the event of a Change of Control (as defined in Schedule B annexed hereto or in the most recent replacement for such Schedule delivered by the Administrator to the Trustee at least ten business days prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control), the Grantor may remove PMI (or its successor) and any designee of PMI as Administrator by delivering to both PMI (or its successor) and the Trustee within any period of two days written notice of such removal. The Trustee may rely upon any notice of removal received from the Grantor without further inquiry or verification, unless PMI (or its successor) provides to the Trustee (within 10 days following the Trustee’s receipt of the notice of removal from the Grantor) written notice certifying that no Change of Control has occurred. In the event the Grantor removes PMI as Administrator, the Grantor shall appoint a successor Administrator, who may be the Grantor, a committee of persons including the Grantor, or such other person or persons as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee, and shall notify the Trustee of the appointment. In such event, the Grantor shall also have the authority to, from time to time, remove the person or persons so appointed and appoint such other person or persons as shall be reasonably acceptable to the Trustee.

I. (6). Acceptance. The Trustee accepts the duties and obligations of the “Trustee” hereunder, agrees to accept funds delivered to it on behalf of the Grantor, and agrees to hold such funds (and any proceeds from the investment of such funds) in trust in accordance with this agreement; provided that the Trustee reserves the right to determine whether to accept the transfer of any property other than cash proposed to be transferred to it.

I. (7). Termination. In conjunction with any written certification provided to the Trustee pursuant to the first sentence of Section I.(4) above, the Administrator shall also specify a future date at the close of which the fair market value of the Trust Fund shall be determined; on the next succeeding business day of the Trustee, the Trust Fund assets shall be distributable and this Employee Grantor Trust shall be scheduled to terminate. On or as soon as practicable after such scheduled termination date, the Trustee shall transfer and pay over (in the form of the assets held in the Trust Fund to the extent feasible, or alternatively in cash), the principal and any undistributed income of the Trust Fund, as then constituted, to the Grantor, if living, or the Beneficiary(ies) of the Grantor, in the event of the Grantor’s death, and upon the completion of all such distributions this Employee Grantor Trust shall

terminate. The Grantor (or, if the Grantor has died, the Grantor’s Beneficiary(ies)) and the Trustee may, however, enter into a new trust agreement for holding any assets of the Trust Fund on new terms and conditions provided by the Grantor (or the Grantor’s Beneficiary(ies)), though neither shall be obligated to enter into such an agreement.

I. (8). Death Beneficiary(ies). In general, a Grantor’s Beneficiary(ies) under this Trust Agreement shall be the beneficiary(ies) designated by the Grantor under the terms of the PMI Supplemental Plans or otherwise determined under the terms of the PMI Supplemental Plans, and in the event of the Grantor’s death amounts held in the Trust Fund shall be distributed in lieu of the amounts that would otherwise be payable under the PMI Supplemental Plans to such Beneficiary(ies) in accordance with information and instructions provided to the Trustee by the Administrator. If the survivors’ benefits or other death benefits payable on behalf of the Grantor under the PMI Supplemental Plans do not exhaust the assets of the Trust Fund, the Trust Fund assets may be applied to make payments to any person to whom a survivor benefit or death benefit in respect of the Grantor is payable under any other plan or arrangement of the Company to the extent so instructed by the Administrator. The Trustee shall be under no duty to inquire into the terms of the PMI Supplemental Plans or other plans or arrangements, the identity of or amounts payable to the Beneficiary(ies) under such PMI Supplemental Plans, and shall be entitled to rely on the information received from the Administrator with respect to such matters. Any balance remaining in the Trust Fund following all such payments (the “Residual Assets”) shall be paid in one lump sum, in kind to the extent practicable, to the Beneficiary(ies) designated by the Grantor on the beneficiary designation form attached as Schedule C hereto or on any subsequent replacement for such designation form (“the Beneficiary Designation”) to receive any Residual Assets under this Trust Agreement. The Beneficiary Designation under this Trust Agreement shall be made in writing by the Grantor in such manner and on such form as shall be specified by the Administrator, and a designation shall not be effective until it has been received by the Administrator (or if the Grantor has become the Administrator, by the Trustee) and acceptance has been indicated by the signature of the Trustee. In the absence of a Beneficiary Designation hereunder or if the failure of a Beneficiary designated on the Beneficiary Designation under this Trust Agreement to survive results in the absence of an effective designation with respect to some or all of the Residual Assets, the Beneficiary shall be the Grantor’s spouse, if any, and, if none the Grantor’s estate. Under no circumstances whatsoever shall the Company have any interest in, or be entitled to receive, any of the Trust Fund assets.

ARTICLE II

Accumulation and Distribution of the Trust Fund

II. (1). The Trustee shall hold, manage, invest and reinvest the Trust Fund, shall collect the income therefrom and, after deducting all proper charges, shall pay or apply to or for the benefit of the Grantor (or, in the event of the Grantor’s death, the Grantor’s Beneficiary(ies)) so much, including all, of the net income and principal of the Trust Fund as is set forth in instructions provided to the Trustee by the Administrator. The Administrator shall be solely responsible for providing the Trustee with all necessary information as to the Grantor’s current address, beneficiary designations, and the amounts in which, the time at which, to whom, and (except to the extent otherwise provided in Section I.(7) above) the form in which payments are

to be made. The Trustee shall incur no liability to the Grantor or any other person interested in the Trust Fund for any action or any omission in reliance upon information provided by the Administrator, or for the failure or omission of the Administrator to provide such information. Any information provided by the Administrator to the Trustee shall be provided in a form and manner acceptable to the Trustee.

II. (2). The Trustee shall also distribute to or for the benefit of the Grantor at least annually such amount(s), if any, as the Administrator may certify to the Trustee is (are) necessary to pay tax obligations of the Grantor resulting from earnings on the Trust Fund or from additional amounts actually or constructively received by the Grantor from the Company and contributed to the Trust Fund.

II. (3). All income not so paid or applied shall be accumulated and added to principal of the Trust Fund.

ARTICLE III

The Trustee

Fidelity Management Trust Company may resign at any time as Trustee and appoint any affiliated entity of Fidelity Management Trust Company to serve as successor Trustee, without the execution or filing of any instrument or the performance of any further act, including court order, with the same powers, authorities and discretions as though originally named; provided that such affiliated entity is authorized to act in such capacity under applicable law. Any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion, reorganization or consolidation to which any corporation acting as Trustee hereunder shall be a party, or any corporation to which shall be transferred all or substantially all of any such corporation’s trust business, shall be the successor of such corporation as Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any instrument or the performance of any further act and shall have the same powers, authorities and discretions as though originally named in this Trust Agreement.

III. (2). The Trustee may resign by giving ninety (90) days’ advance written notice to the Grantor and the Administrator. The Administrator, as agent for the Grantor, may remove a Trustee by giving ninety (90) days advance written notice to the Trustee and the Grantor. The Administrator shall appoint a successor Trustee by written notice signed by the Administrator and delivered to the Trustee and the Grantor (or, in the event of the Grantor’s death, the Grantor’s Beneficiary(ies)). If a successor Trustee is not appointed within ninety (90) days of the Trustee’s resignation, the Trustee may apply to a court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor.

III. (3). The Trustee shall be entitled to such compensation for its services in any fiduciary capacity hereunder as the Administrator, as agent for the Grantor, and the Trustee may from time to time agree, including minimum fees and additional compensation for special investments and services, notwithstanding that such stipulated compensation shall be greater than that now in effect or than that provided from time to time under applicable law, and such

compensation and reimbursement for reasonable expenses may be paid at any time without court approval. Such compensation shall be paid from the Trust Fund to the extent that it is not paid by the Administrator or the Grantor within 60 days of becoming due.

III. (4). No bond or other security shall be required of any trustee in any jurisdiction, whether for the faithful performance of duties, to secure payment of commissions in advance or otherwise, and if, notwithstanding this express direction, any such bond or security shall be required by any law, statute or rule of court, no surety shall be required thereon.

III. (5). To assure compliance with regulatory and corporate disclosure requirements, the Trustee, Fidelity Management Trust Company, advises as follows:

(a) Relationship. FMR Corp. (“FMR”) is the parent corporation of the Trustee.

(b) Affiliated Entities. The Trustee may engage any corporation or other entity to which it is affiliated (“Affiliated Entity”) or any other entity or person to provide services to an account held by the Trustee, including, without limitation, as investment manager or adviser, custodian, transfer agent, registrar, sponsor, underwriter and/or distributor, and may pay or receive compensation for any such services without reduction in the compensation paid to the Trustee for its services as trustee or investment manager. FMR will derive earnings directly or indirectly through FMR’s management of funds in which the Trust Fund may be invested as well as from fees paid to the Trustee.

(c) Mutual Funds. The Trustee may invest primarily or exclusively in shares of one or more open-end investment companies (so-called mutual funds or money market funds), including investment companies for which an Affiliated Entity serves as investment manager or adviser, custodian, transfer agent, registrar, sponsor, underwriter, distributor and/or other service provider, and from which the Trustee or an Affiliated Entity receives reasonable compensation for such services. The Affiliated Entity may receive such compensation in addition to the trustee or investment management fee paid to the Trustee.

(d) Compensation. The Trustee may receive compensation for its services, without reduction in any other fees or compensation paid to the Trustee or any Affiliated Entity. In addition, the Trustee may share a portion of any compensation received by an Affiliated Entity.

ARTICLE IV

Trustee Reporting

IV. (1). The Trustee shall furnish the Administrator with statements of transactions in the trust and statements of the market value of the Trust Fund at least monthly, and the Administrator and the Grantor with a statement of trust investments including the market value thereof at least quarterly. The failure of both the Grantor and the Administrator to object to any matter contained in such statements by written notice signed by either the Grantor or the

Administrator within ninety (90) days after receipt of the same shall constitute the Grantor’s assent to such statements and shall be final and binding as to all matters contained in such statements upon the Grantor, the Administrator as agent for the Grantor, and all persons, whether or not in being, interested in the Trust Fund. In addition, the Grantor may execute a release, with or without an account, approving the administration of the Employee Grantor Trust. A release shall discharge the Trustee from any accountability and liability to the Grantor, the Grantor’s legal representatives, or any persons, whether or not in being, interested in the Trust Fund, with the same effect as if the account of the Trustee were judicially settled and allowed.

IV. (2). The Trustee shall also furnish the Administrator or the Grantor with such other information relating to the actual or estimated income of the Trust Fund, including the character of such income, and to estimated taxes resulting from such income as the Trustee and the Administrator may from time to time agree is necessary or desirable to assure appropriate reporting and payment of taxes by or on behalf of the Grantor.

IV. (3). The Grantor and the Administrator, or such persons as may be designated by them, shall at any time upon five days’ advance written notice to the Trustee have the right to examine, during the normal business hours of the Trustee, all books and records of the Trustee pertaining to the Trust Fund.

BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION

EMPLOYEE GRANTOR TRUST

I understand that the assets of my employee grantor trust (“Grantor Trust”) that I established with Fidelity Management Trust Company as Trustee will be applied to pay benefits to me or on my behalf under nonqualified supplemental benefit plans, including one or more of those specified in Schedule A attached to the Grantor Trust (the “PMI Supplemental Plans”). Generally, the beneficiary(ies) entitled to receive benefits under the Grantor Trust in the event of my death shall be the beneficiary(ies) designated or otherwise determined under the terms of the PMI Supplemental Plans, including any modification of such terms as applied to me or my Beneficiary(ies) under agreements I have entered into or may enter into with the Company. If any assets remain in the Grantor Trust after my death and after all survivor and death benefit payments due under the PMI Supplemental Plans and any other plans of or arrangements with the Company have been made to my beneficiary(ies), if any, under the PMI Supplemental Plans and such other plans or arrangements, those residual assets (the “Residual Assets”) shall be paid to the beneficiary(ies) designated on this Beneficiary Designation form.

Thus, for example, if I die prior to termination of my Grantor Trust and am not married at the time of my death, it is likely that there will be Residual Assets in my Grantor Trust. This Beneficiary Designation will govern the disposition of such Residual Assets.

I understand (1) that this Beneficiary Designation relates only to any Residual Assets as described above that may be held in my Grantor Trust and does not determine who is my beneficiary under the PMI Supplemental Plans, (2) that, if I am married at the time of my death, my then spouse will automatically be the beneficiary of all amounts held in my Grantor Trust, except to the extent that I have designated (in accordance with the terms of the relevant Plan) someone other than my spouse as the beneficiary who is to receive any defined contribution benefits provided under such PMI Supplemental Plan, (3) that my current spouse, if any, must consent to the designation on this form of any Primary Beneficiary other than my spouse, and (4) that if any Primary Beneficiary I designate on this form does not survive until payment is made, then any remaining assets of the Grantor Trust that would otherwise have been paid to such beneficiary will be paid in the following order: first, to the Contingent Beneficiary(ies), if any, designated below; second, if there is no surviving Contingent Beneficiary, to my spouse (if I was married at my date of death); or, third, if there is no surviving Contingent Beneficiary and either I am not married at the date of my death or my spouse is not living at the time the Residual Assets become payable, then to my estate.

EXHIBIT B

Tax Assumptions

Federal income tax rate: the highest marginal Federal income tax rate as adjusted for the Federal deduction of state and local taxes and the phase out of Federal deductions under current law (or as adjusted under any subsequently enacted similar provisions of the Internal Revenue Code).

State income tax rate: the highest adjusted marginal state income tax rate based on the Employee’s, Employee’s Spouse’s or Plan Beneficiary’s state of residence.

Local income tax rate: the highest adjusted marginal local income tax rate based on the Employee, Employee’s Spouse’s or Plan Beneficiary’s locality of residence.

Exceptions:

(1)

While the Employee is actively employed by the Company, the state and local tax rate assumptions used to determine the appropriate deduction from a Funding Payment for state and local taxes, and the appropriate amount of such taxes on Company payments to provide for the taxes due on earnings of the Trust, will generally be based on the Employee’s work location rather than his residence. However, status as a non-resident will be taken into account.

(2)

In the case of an Employee who is an expatriate actively employed by the Company and subject to United States taxation for all tax purposes, income taxes shall generally be computed as follows. Expatriate taxes will be calculated assuming the highest marginal Federal income tax rate as adjusted for the Federal deduction of state and local taxes and the phase out of Federal deductions under current law (or as adjusted under any subsequently enacted similar provisions of the Internal Revenue Code). For expatriates, the state and local tax rates will be assumed to be 5.25 percent.

(3)

For all periods on and after the Availability Date and before the Distribution Date, state and local tax rate assumptions will generally be based on the Employee’s, Employee Spouse’s or Plan Beneficiary’s state and locality of residence at the Availability Date. At the Distribution Date, state and local tax rate assumptions used in computing the After-Tax Benefit and the Additional Pre-Tax Benefit, if any, will generally be based on actual residence at the Distribution Date.

Capital gains: the ordinary income or capital gains character of items of Trust investment income or deemed investment income shall be taken into account where relevant.

The above principles shall generally be applied in determining tax assumptions for the relevant purpose, but the Company shall have the authority in its discretion to alter the assumptions made where deemed appropriate to take into account particular facts and circumstances.
