Altria and AB InBev have entered into an information rights agreement pursuant to which, following completion of the transaction, NewCo will provide Altria with certain financial information necessary to assist Altria in connection with its financial reporting, financial controls and financial planning (the &#8220;Information Rights Agreement&#8221;).  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Upon closing of the transaction, Altria estimates that it will record a one-time pre-tax accounting gain of approximately $12 billion, or $8 billion after-tax.  This estimate is based on the AB InBev share price and British pound to United States dollar exchange rate as of November 10, 2015, and the book value of Altria&#8217;s investment in SABMiller at September 30, 2015.  The actual gain recorded at closing may vary significantly from this estimate based on changes to these factors and any proration of Restricted Shares as discussed further below.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">If the transaction is completed, Altria expects to receive Restricted Shares under the PSA representing approximately 10.5% economic and voting interest in NewCo; however, the number of shares that Altria receives and its corresponding percentage ownership of NewCo at closing are subject to proration because the PSA limits the maximum number of shares that may be issued under the offer to 326 million NewCo Restricted Shares.  To the extent that elections for the PSA exceed this maximum number and cannot be satisfied in full, the equity portion of all PSA elections will be adjusted downwards on a pro rata basis.  It is possible that significant proration could (i) reduce Altria&#8217;s projected percentage ownership of NewCo; (ii) increase the amount of cash that Altria receives; (iii) increase the amount of the pre-tax gain recorded by Altria; (iv) impose additional tax liabilities on Altria; and (v) impact Altria&#8217;s ability to account for its investment in NewCo under the equity method of accounting.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">The transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, including without limitation shareholder approvals of both SABMiller and AB InBev, and receiving the required regulatory approvals. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">On November 11, 2015 Altria entered into a derivative financial instrument to hedge Altria&#8217;s exposure to the British pound in conjunction with the cash consideration that Altria expects to receive under the PSA.  This derivative financial instrument does not qualify for hedge accounting; therefore changes in the fair value of this instrument will be recorded as a reported pre-tax gain or loss on Altria&#8217;s consolidated statement of earnings in the periods the changes occur.  </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">The foregoing descriptions of the Irrevocable Undertaking, the Tax Matters Agreement and the Information Rights Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the Irrevocable Undertaking, the Tax Matters Agreement and the Information Rights Agreement, copies of which are attached as Exhibit 99.2, Exhibit 99.3 and Exhibit 99.4, respectively, and incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline;">Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">This Current Report on Form 8-K contains forward-looking statements that involve a number of risks and uncertainties and are made pursuant to the Safe Harbor Provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

(November 11, 2015)</font><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">&#32;- Altria Group, Inc. (Altria) is pleased that Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV (AB InBev) today announced its firm offer to effect a business combination with SABMiller plc (SABMiller) to create the largest beer company in the world in a cash and stock transaction valued at approximately $107 billion.   </font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">&#8220;Altria fully supports this transaction, and we strongly believe that the deal is in the best interest of our shareholders,&#8221; said Marty Barrington, Altria&#8217;s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President.  &#8220;Upon closing, Altria will continue to participate in the global brewing profit pool as a large and significant shareholder in what will be the industry&#8217;s largest company.  We continue to work constructively with the parties toward closing, and we look forward to working with the AB InBev management team at the new, combined company.&#8221; </font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">At closing, Altria expects to receive an approximately 10.5% stake in the new, combined company and approximately $2.5 billion in cash, subject to proration.  In addition, the announced transaction is expected to provide Altria with two seats on the new company&#8217;s board of directors, continue the use of equity accounting for the beer asset&#8217;s contribution to Altria&#8217;s earnings, and maintain a strong asset on the balance sheet.  Finally, the transaction structure provides Altria with tax efficiency.      </font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Additional details of the transaction are attached on Exhibit A.  </font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;text-decoration:underline;">Altria&#8217;s Profile</font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Altria currently owns approximately 27% percent of SABMiller&#8217;s ordinary shares outstanding and has been a SABMiller shareholder since 2002.

Dollar amounts Altria will receive are estimated at this time and are subject to change.   Additional risks and uncertainties are identified under the heading &#8220;Forward-Looking and Cautionary Statements&#8221; in the press release to which this Exhibit is attached.  </font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;">Financial Terms of the Offer</font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">SABMiller shareholders will receive 44 GBP in cash for each SABMiller share, with a partial share alternative (PSA) available for approximately 41% of the SABMiller shares.  </font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Under the terms of the PSA, SABMiller shareholders may elect to receive for each SABMiller share held (i) 0.483969 restricted shares (the Restricted Shares) in a newly formed Belgian company (NewCo) that will own the combined SABMiller-AB InBev business plus (ii) 3.7788 GBP in cash.

This estimate is based on the AB InBev share price and GBP to USD exchange rate as of November 10, 2015, and the book value of Altria&#8217;s investment in SABMiller at September 30, 2015.  The actual gain recorded at closing may vary significantly from this estimate based on changes to these factors and any proration of Restricted Shares.  </font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;">Proration</font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">The number of shares that Altria receives and its corresponding percentage ownership of NewCo at closing are subject to proration because the PSA limits the maximum number of shares that may be issued under the offer to 326 million NewCo Restricted Shares. To the extent that elections for the PSA exceed this maximum number and cannot be satisfied in full, the equity portion of all PSA elections will be adjusted downwards on a pro rata basis. It is possible that significant proration could (i) reduce Altria&#8217;s projected percentage ownership of NewCo; (ii) increase the amount of cash that Altria receives; (iii) increase the amount of the pre-tax gain recorded by Altria; (iv) impose additional tax liabilities on Altria; and (v) impact Altria&#8217;s ability to account for its investment in NewCo under the equity method of accounting.</font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;font-weight:bold;">Advisors</font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;"><br></font></div><div style="line-height:174%;text-align:left;font-size:11pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:11pt;">Credit Suisse and Perella Weinberg Partners are the financial advisors and Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen &amp; Katz, Macfarlanes and McDermott Will &amp; Emery are providing legal counsel to Altria for the deal.</font></div><div style="line-height:174%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div><br><div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div></div>	</body>

SABMiller into ABI.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:12pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:12pt;">ABI has been advised that a merger
