provides for borrowings up to an aggregate principal amount of $3&nbsp;billion. The Credit Agreement expires on August&nbsp;1, 2023 and includes an option, subject to certain conditions, for Altria to extend the Credit Agreement for two additional <FONT
STYLE="white-space:nowrap">one-year</FONT> periods. Interest rates on borrowings under the Credit Agreement will be based on prevailing interest rates as described in the Credit Agreement and, in part, upon Altria&#146;s senior unsecured long-term
debt rating. The Credit Agreement will be used for general corporate purposes and requires that Altria maintain a ratio of consolidated earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization to consolidated interest expense of not less than
4.0 to 1.0. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Altria&#146;s obligations under the Credit Agreement are guaranteed by Philip Morris USA Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Altria (&#147;PM

The Designation Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the Notes have been duly executed and delivered by the Designated Subsidiary. </P>

Guarantee shall be limited to the maximum amount as will, after giving effect to such maximum amount and all other contingent and fixed liabilities of the Guarantor that are relevant under such laws, result in the Obligations of the Guarantor under
this Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent transfer or conveyance. For purposes hereof, &#147;Bankruptcy Law&#148; means Title 11, U.S. Code, or any similar federal or state law for the relief of debtors. </P>
