Exhibit 10.2
Kraft Foods Deutschland
Pension Scheme
ʺSupplementary Benefits 2005ʺ/
Deferral
(Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan)

Kraft Foods supplementary payments are intended to complement the payments received from the statutory pension scheme, Kraft Foods' pension scheme Plan 1996 and other company and private pension schemes, in the event of inability to work or death.
The required financial funds to finance the supplementary payments will be raised from deferred compensation and from additional contributions made by the company.
The benefits from these company supplementary payments will not be credited to payments from other company provision regulations.
Kraft Foods supplementary payments are not linked with already existing company pension commitments (for example, pension scheme plan 1996, HPK, direct insurance). Therefore the non-forfeiture periods for supplementary payments and the already existing pension commitments run separately from one another in accordance with §1b, paragraph 1 of the BetrAVG [Law for the Improvement of the Company Pension Scheme].
I.Participation
Those entitled to participate are employees who are Band I+ on 30 September of a given year and who by the end of the calendar year of the first or repeated participation have not yet had their 60th birthday.
Employees, who at the point of the first or repeated participation are suffering a reduction in earning capacity or have applied for benefits on account of reduction in earning capacity to the statutory pension insurance provider or another provider are not entitled to participate or to participate any longer.
There is no legal right to participate in the supplementary payments. The company can offer employees the opportunity to participate annually. The employee may accept such an offer by 31 October.

The capitalization rate is determined in accordance with the completed year of life at the end of the respective calendar year in which the payment used for the provision would have been due. The relevant factors are summarized in the attached table which is an integral part of this pension scheme.
