Section 4.1 Further Assurances .

(a) In addition to the actions specifically provided for elsewhere in this Agreement, each of the parties shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, subject to Section 3.5, use its reasonable best efforts, prior to, on and after the Distribution Date, to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things, reasonably necessary, proper or advisable under applicable Law, regulations and agreements to consummate and make effective the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Ancillary Agreements.

(b) Without limiting Section 4.1(a), prior to, on and after the Distribution Date, each party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, cooperate with the other party and its Subsidiaries, and without any further consideration, but at the expense of the requesting party, to (i) execute and deliver, or use its reasonable best efforts to cause to be executed and delivered, all instruments, including any instruments of conveyance, assignment and transfer as such party may be reasonably requested to execute and deliver to the other party, (ii) make, or cause to be made, all filings with, and obtain, or cause to be obtained, all Consents, approvals or authorizations of, any Governmental Authority or any other Person under any permit, license, agreement, indenture or other instrument, (iii) seek,

Without limiting Section 4.1(a), each party shall, and shall cause its Subsidiaries to, at the reasonable request, cost and expense of any other party, take such other actions as may be reasonably necessary to vest in such other party good and marketable title, if and to the extent it is practicable to do so.

Section 4.2 Shared Liabilities .

(a) After the Distribution, GroceryCo and SnackCo shall form the Allocation Committee to determine in good faith whether GroceryCo or SnackCo shall be the Managing Party of any Shared Liability. With respect to any Shared Liability, the Indemnifying Party or the Indemnified Party, as applicable, may, within 15 days after receipt of the notice given by the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 5.5(a), make a written request to the Allocation Committee for a determination as to the Managing Party (a “ Determination Request ”). If the Allocation Committee reaches a determination (which shall be made within 15 days after a Determination Request on a matter submitted to the Allocation Committee by either of GroceryCo or SnackCo), then that determination shall be binding on the members of the GroceryCo Group and the SnackCo Group and their respective successors and assigns. In the event that the Allocation Committee cannot reach a determination within 15 days after the making of such Determination Request, then the Allocation Committee shall request the CPR Institute, New York City, to appoint an expert determiner to select the Managing Party. GroceryCo and SnackCo shall be jointly and severally responsible for the fees and expenses of the CPR Institute and the fees and expenses of the expert determiner. The Allocation Committee shall request CPR Institute (or if CPR Institute is not able to act in such a manner, a similar independent Third Party selected by GroceryCo and SnackCo) to appoint the expert determiner within four Business Days after receiving the request. Within two Business Days after the appointment, and with the cooperation of GroceryCo and SnackCo, the expert determiner shall meet separately (via telephone), for no more than 90 minutes, with representatives of GroceryCo and with representatives of SnackCo, to obtain their respective positions on the selection of the Managing Party. The expert determiner shall issue the decision on the selection of the Managing Party to the Allocation Committee within one Business Day after completion of the second meeting. The decision shall not be accompanied with reasons.

(b) Either GroceryCo or SnackCo shall be the “ Managing Party ” of each Shared Liability. In determining which party shall be the Managing Party, the Allocation Committee shall consider as the primary factor in such a determination which party is subject to the greater financial, operational and reputational risk or exposure in connection with such Shared Liability, including the relative Applicable Proportions with respect to such Shared Liability. The Allocation Committee shall also

34

consider such other factors as the Allocation Committee deems appropriate, including, if applicable, which party has control over the potentially relevant documentation and possible witnesses with respect to such Shared Liability and which party has more relevant expertise in managing similar liabilities.

(c) The Managing Party shall be responsible for managing, and shall have the authority to manage, the defense and resolution (including, subject to Section 5.5(b)(iv), settlement) of a Shared Liability. The Non-Managing Party shall not be entitled to raise as a defense to its obligations to pay any amount in respect of any Shared Liability that the Non-Managing Party was not consulted in the response to or defense thereof (except to the extent such consultation was required under this Agreement), that such party’s views or opinions as to the conduct of such response to or defense or the reasonableness of any settlement were not accepted or adopted, that such party does not approve of the quality or manner of the response to or defense thereof or that such Shared Liability was incurred by reason of a settlement rather than by a judgment or other determination of liability.

(d) Any amount owed in respect of any Shared Liability shall be remitted within 30 days after the party entitled to such amount provides an invoice (including reasonable supporting information with respect thereto) to the party owing such amount.

(e) With respect to any Environmental Liability that is a Shared Liability under clause (b) of the definition of “Shared Liability”:

(i) Unless the parties jointly agree that one is not necessary, the Managing Party shall retain a qualified independent environmental consultant (a “ Consultant ”), which Consultant shall be subject to the Non-Managing Party’s approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). The Managing Party’s contract with the Consultant shall expressly state that the Non-Managing Party may rely upon the Consultant’s work. The Managing Party shall undertake such defense, prosecution, investigation, containment and/or remediation in a commercially reasonable fashion in accordance with Environmental Laws for facilities of the type being remediated such that any Remedial Action complies with only the minimum requirements of Environmental Laws and shall not cause, through its own inaction, any undue delay in obtaining written notice from the appropriate Regulatory Authority that no further investigation or remediation is necessary with respect to the matter that is the subject of the indemnification claim, or, if no Regulatory Authority is involved in such matter, either a good faith determination from the Consultant that no further investigation or remediation is required to bring the property that is the subject of the Remedial Action into conformance with the minimum requirements of Environmental Laws for facilities of the type being remediated or other resolution of the investigation or remediation reasonably acceptable to the Non-Managing Party. The Managing Party shall promptly provide copies to the Non-Managing Party of all notices, correspondence, draft reports, submissions, work plans and final reports and shall give the Non-Managing Party a reasonable opportunity (at the Non-Managing Party’s own expense) to comment on any submissions the Managing Party intends to deliver or submit to the appropriate Regulatory Authority prior to such

35

submission; provided , however , that the Managing Party shall not make such submission to the appropriate Regulatory Authority without a prior approval of the Non-Managing Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or unduly delayed). The Non-Managing Party may, at its own expense, hire its own consultants, attorneys or other professionals to monitor the defense, prosecution, investigation, containment and/or remediation, including any field work undertaken by the Managing Party, and the Managing Party shall provide the Non-Managing Party with copies of the results of all such field work. The type of Remedial Action undertaken by the Managing Party and the results thereof shall be subject to the approval of the Non-Managing Party, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Notwithstanding the above, the Non-Managing Party shall not take any actions that shall unreasonably interfere with the Managing Party’s performance of the defense, prosecution, investigation, containment and/or remediation, nor shall the implementation of the Remedial Action hereunder unreasonably interfere with the Non-Managing Party’s operation of its business, unless otherwise required by a Governmental Authority.

(ii) The Non-Managing Party shall grant the Managing Party and its Consultants, or any other qualified consultant or subcontractor engaged by the Managing Party to perform the Remedial Action, and their officers, agents, employees, and authorized representatives (collectively, the “ Representatives ”) access as reasonably necessary for the completion of the Remedial Action, subject to the following conditions: (A) the Non-Managing Party shall receive at least five working days’ advance notice of the Consultant’s or Representative’s intention to initially enter the properties to conduct the remedial work; however, such time period may be shortened by agreement between the parties; (B) the access to the properties granted by the Non-Managing Party hereunder shall be limited to access reasonably necessary for the execution and supervision of the Remedial Action, and the Managing Party shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to complete the Remedial Action in accordance with the schedule referenced in the scope of work for the relevant property; (C) the Managing Party shall require the Consultants and their Representatives to procure and maintain insurance consistent with industry practices; and (D) following the execution of the Remedial Action, and in no case later than 30 days after on-site activities have been completed, the Managing Party shall undertake commercially reasonable measures (determined from the perspective of an objective commercially reasonable Person who was both paying the cost of restoration and operating the business on the property that was the subject of the Remedial Action) to return the properties to their approximate condition prior to the taking of the Remedial Action (absent the contamination that was the subject of the Remedial Action), and arrange for the prompt removal of all equipment and materials brought to the relevant property by Consultants or any of their Representatives during the course of the Remedial Action.

Section 4.3 Certain Shared Contracts . The parties shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to work together (and, if necessary and desirable, to work with the Third Party to such Shared Contract) in an effort to divide, partially assign, modify and/or replicate (in whole or in part) the respective rights and obligations under and in respect of any Shared Contract, such that (a) a member of the GroceryCo Group is the beneficiary of the rights and is responsible for the

36

obligations related to that portion of such Shared Contract relating to the GroceryCo Business (the “ GroceryCo Portion ”), which rights shall be a GroceryCo Asset and which obligations shall be a GroceryCo Liability, and (b) a member of the SnackCo Group is the beneficiary of the rights and is responsible for the obligations related to such Shared Contract relating to the SnackCo Business (the “ SnackCo Portion ”), which rights shall be a SnackCo Asset and which obligations shall be a SnackCo Liability. If the parties, or their respective Subsidiaries, as applicable, are not able to enter into an arrangement to formally divide, partially assign, modify and/or replicate such Shared Contract as contemplated by the previous sentence, then the parties shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, cooperate in any lawful arrangement to provide that a member of the GroceryCo Group shall receive the interest in the benefits and obligations of the GroceryCo Portion under such Shared Contract and a member of the SnackCo Group shall receive the interest in the benefits and obligations of the SnackCo Portion under such Shared Contract; provided , however , that no party shall be required to expend any money or take any action in furtherance of this Section 4.3 that would require the expenditure of money (other than any payment obligations under the applicable Shared Contract).

(a) Subject to Section 4.4(e), on each Business Day during the three-month period following the Distribution: (i) GroceryCo shall notify SnackCo of (A) the amount of customer payments that relate to accounts receivable of any member of the SnackCo Group (“ SnackCo Receivables ”) received by any member of the GroceryCo Group on the previous Business Day (such payments, “ Misdirected SnackCo Payments ”) and (B) the amount of any customer deductions that relate to SnackCo Receivables made on the previous Business Day against payments owed to any member of the GroceryCo Group (such deductions, “ Misdirected SnackCo Deductions ”), and (ii) SnackCo shall notify GroceryCo of (A) the amount of customer payments that relate to accounts receivable of any member of the GroceryCo Group (“ GroceryCo Receivables ”) received by any member of the SnackCo Group on the previous Business Day (such payments, “ Misdirected GroceryCo Payments ”) and (B) the amount of any customer deductions that relate to GroceryCo Receivables made on the previous Business Day against payments owed to any member of the SnackCo Group (such deductions, “ Misdirected GroceryCo Deductions ”).

(b) On the last day of each calendar month during such three-month period: (i) if the amount of Misdirected GroceryCo Payments during such month plus the amount of Misdirected SnackCo Deductions during such month exceeds the amount of Misdirected SnackCo Payments during such month plus the amount of Misdirected GroceryCo Deductions during such month, then SnackCo shall pay GroceryCo the amount of such difference and (ii) if the amount of Misdirected SnackCo Payments during such month plus the amount Misdirected GroceryCo Deductions during such month exceeds the

37

amount of Misdirected GroceryCo Payments during such month plus the amount of Misdirected SnackCo Deductions during such month, then GroceryCo shall pay SnackCo the amount of such difference.

(c) In the event that after the three-month period following the Distribution, any member of the GroceryCo Group receives a Misdirected SnackCo Payment or any member of SnackCo Group receives a Misdirected GroceryCo Payment, the receiving party shall return such payment to the applicable payor.

Section 4.6 Rights of First Offer .

(a) Except as provided in Section 4.6(f) and except if prohibited by any contractual arrangements in place as of the Distribution and, in the case of any Covered Trademark License, subject to the terms of the IP Agreement (Trademark) at any time or from time to time after the Distribution and prior to the fifth anniversary of the Distribution, prior to any member of either Group (a “ Selling Party ”) engaging in detailed discussions with, or providing detailed business and financial information about any Covered Business to, any Person that is not a controlled Affiliate of the Selling Party for a potential Sale Transaction with respect to any Covered Business, such Selling Party shall deliver to the applicable ROFO Offeror a written notice (the “ ROFO Notice ”) stating such Selling Party’s intention to pursue such proposed Sale Transaction and describing the applicable Covered Business in reasonable detail.

(b) The ROFO Offeror shall have 30 days after receipt from the Selling Party of a packet of business and financial information reasonably sufficient to make an initial indication of interest with respect to the Covered Business, which will include any such information the Selling Party proposes to provide to any Third Party (such period, the “ Evaluation Period ”), to decide whether to make a non-binding written offer (such written offer, an “ Offer Letter ”) to purchase the Covered Business from the Selling Party. The Offer Letter shall set forth (i) the price at which the ROFO Offeror proposes to acquire the Covered Business in the proposed Sale Transaction, (ii) the material closing conditions of the proposed Sale Transaction and (iii) a summary of the other key terms and conditions of the proposed Sale Transaction.

(c) In the event that the ROFO Offeror fails to provide an Offer Letter that complies with the requirements of Section 4.6(b) prior to the expiration of the Evaluation Period, the Selling Party shall, during the 365-day period following the end of the Evaluation Period, be free to enter into a definitive agreement with a Third Party for a Sale Transaction with respect to the Covered Business. In the event that the Selling Party shall not have entered into any such definitive agreement within such 365-day period (or any such definitive agreement is terminated prior to the consummation of the Sale Transaction), such Selling Party shall not pursue a Sale Transaction with respect to any Covered Business without first reoffering such Covered Business in the manner set forth in this Section 4.6.

(d) Within five Business Days following the Selling Party’s receipt of an Offer Letter that complies with the timing requirements of Section 4.6(b), the Selling Party shall notify the ROFO Offeror in writing as to whether the Selling Party has determined that the offer set forth in the Offer Letter is inadequate (such notice, an “ Inadequacy Determination ”) or whether the Selling Party has agreed to enter into good faith negotiations with the ROFO Offeror (such notice, a “ Negotiation Notice ”). During the 60-day period following the ROFO Offeror’s receipt

39

of a Negotiation Notice (the “ Exclusive Negotiation Period ”), the Selling Party and the ROFO Offeror shall negotiate in good faith and on an exclusive basis the terms of the proposed Sale Transaction. During the Exclusive Negotiation Period, the Selling Party shall provide the ROFO Offeror with all such business and financial information with respect to the Covered Business and all such reasonable access during ordinary business hours to management of the Covered Business, in each case, as is reasonably requested by the ROFO Offeror and subject to the ROFO Offeror’s execution of a customary confidentiality agreement. In the event that the Selling Party provides an Inadequacy Notice or the Selling Party and the ROFO Offeror are unable to agree on mutually acceptable terms with respect to the proposed Sale Transaction during the Exclusive Negotiation Period, the Selling Party shall, during the 365-day period following the delivery of the Inadequacy Notice or the end of the Exclusive Negotiation Period (or the date of termination of a definitive agreement between the Selling Party and the ROFO Offeror with respect to a Sale Transaction), as applicable, be free to enter into a definitive agreement with a Third Party for a Sale Transaction with respect to the Covered Business on terms and conditions that are in the aggregate more favorable to the Selling Party in the good faith judgment of the Selling Party than the terms and conditions offered by the ROFO Offeror in the Offer Letter or the Exclusive Negotiation Period. In the event that the Selling Party shall not have entered into any such definitive agreement within such 365-day period (or any such definitive agreement is terminated prior to the consummation of the Sale Transaction), such Selling Party shall not pursue a Sale Transaction with respect to any Covered Business without first reoffering such Covered Business in the manner set forth in this Section 4.6.

(e) In the event that the revenue attributable to a Reserved Business or a Covered Trademark License (i) accounted, in each case, for less than 50% of the total revenue of a Covered Business in the 12-month period prior to the date of the ROFO Notice and (ii) the Selling Party can reasonably and in a cost-effective manner separate such Reserved Business or Covered Trademark License from such Covered Business, then the Selling Party shall provide the ROFO Offeror the right to make an offer with respect to only such Reserved Business pursuant to and in accordance with the terms set forth in this Section 4.6 and all references in this Section 4.6 to Covered Business shall refer only to such Reserved Business or Covered Trademark License.

(f) The rights of first offer set forth in this Section 4.6 shall not apply to (i) any Sale Transaction or series of related Sales Transactions to the same Third Party with respect to a Covered Business if the revenue attributable to all Reserved Businesses or Covered Trademark Licenses, as applicable, included in such Covered Business accounted, in the aggregate, for less than 10% of such Covered Business’s total revenue during the 12-month period prior to any applicable date of determination or (ii) the issuance or acquisition of any equity securities of GroceryCo or SnackCo (or any public company successor thereto) if a member of the GroceryCo Group or a member of the SnackCo Group, as applicable, retains 100% ownership in its Reserved Businesses and Covered Trademark Licenses after such acquisition.

(g) The rights of first offer set forth in this Section 4.6 shall not be transferrable; provided , however , that each of GroceryCo and SnackCo may, upon receipt of a ROFO Notice, transfer their rights as a ROFO Offeror to any member of their respective Groups.

40

Section 4.7 Insurance Matters .

(a) Until the Distribution, each member of either Group shall (i) cause itself and its employees, officers and directors to continue to be covered as insured parties under existing policies of insurance and (ii) permit the members of the other Group and their respective employees, officers and directors to submit claims arising from or relating to facts, circumstances, events or matters that occurred at or prior to the Distribution to the extent permitted under such policies. From and after the Distribution, (x) no member of either Group will have responsibility to obtain coverage for any member of the other Group, (y) each member of either Group shall have the right to remove any member of the other Group and its employees, officers and directors as insured parties under any policy of insurance issued by any insurance carrier effective immediately following the Distribution and (z) neither party will be entitled following the Distribution to make any claims for insurance coverage under the other insurance policies of the members of the other Group to the extent such claims are based upon facts, circumstances, events or matters occurring after the Distribution. No member of either Group shall be deemed to have made any representation or warranty as to the availability of any coverage under any such insurance policy.

(b) After the Distribution, each member of each Group and each of their respective current, former and future directors, officers and employees, and each of the heirs, executors, successors and assigns of any of the foregoing, shall have the right to assert claims arising from or relating to facts, circumstances, events or matters that occurred prior to the Distribution under any applicable insurance policies of the members of either Group to the extent permitted under the insurance policies up to the full available limits of such policies. Where indemnification is not available under Article V, each member of each Group shall be responsible for pursuing and administering its own insurance claims and any other member of either Group shall provide such reasonable cooperation as is appropriate with respect to notice of those claims and otherwise, and, with respect to those claims, in the event any member of either Group elects to pursue insurance coverage through litigation or other action against an insurer, that member will be responsible for its own costs and fees in connection therewith.

(c) After the Distribution, to the extent that any claims have been duly reported at or before the Distribution under the directors and officers liability insurance policies or fiduciary liability insurance policies (collectively, “ D&O Policies ”) maintained by the members of each Group, the members of each Group shall not take any action that would limit the coverage of the individuals who acted as directors or officers of any member of either Group at or prior to the Distribution under any D&O Policies maintained by the members of either Group. The members of each Group shall reasonably cooperate with the individuals who acted as directors and officers of any member of either Group at or prior to the Distribution in their pursuit of any coverage claims under such D&O Policies that could inure to the benefit of such individuals. The members of each Group shall allow one another and their agents and representatives, upon

41

reasonable prior notice and during regular business hours, to examine and make copies of the relevant D&O Policies and shall provide such cooperation as is reasonably requested by the members of the other Group, their directors and their officers.

(d) Effective as of the Distribution, the existing insurance policy covering directors and officers of the members of each Group will be converted to a six-year run-off policy with policy limits of $275 million. Each of the members of either Group shall be responsible for obtaining its own directors and officers policy for acts or omissions occurring on or after the Distribution.

(e) If any Asset transferred pursuant to this Agreement suffers or has suffered any damage, destruction or other casualty loss that arises or has arisen prior to the Distribution and for which no insurance claim has yet been made as of the Distribution, the party who transferred the Asset shall make a claim on any available insurance and pay any such proceeds to the party who received the Asset.

(f) Workers’ compensation claims in certain states may have dates of injury which occur over a period of time (Cumulative Trauma (CT) claims). The parties agree that for all CT claims involving GroceryCo employees where injurious exposure is claimed by the employee to have both predated and postdated the Distribution Date, GroceryCo will be the exclusive responsible party for the administration, litigation and resolution of the claim. The claim will be administered exclusively by GroceryCo or its carrier or third-party administrator. The assigned administrator will be instructed, and it will be documented in the appropriate claims handling instructions, that no litigation or competing claims for reimbursement or apportionment will be sought against any former employers. At the close of the case, however, or at a mutually agreeable date, the parties will agree upon an accounting of the claims costs, including all medical, indemnity and expense benefits paid to or on behalf of the claimant, which shall be allocated between SnackCo and GroceryCo according to the generally followed methodology for workers’ compensation claims in the relevant jurisdiction

(g) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit any member of either Group from agreeing to modify or compromise insurance rights (including by means of commutation, novation, rescission, reformation, policy buyback or otherwise) with an insurer that has been placed in liquidation, rehabilitation, conservation, supervision or similar proceedings, provided that, where those insurance rights potentially also would have benefited any member of the other Group, whether by virtue of any indemnification obligations, by virtue of any insurance rights under the policy at issue, or otherwise, then GroceryCo and SnackCo must both agree in advance and in writing to any modification or compromise of those insurance rights.

Section 4.8 Co-Owned Copyrights . Any copyrights owned by Kraft Foods Inc. or any of its direct or indirect Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Distribution in any manuals or policies that are not primarily related to the GroceryCo Business or SnackCo Business (e.g., 5S Sales Manual) shall be jointly owned, on an equal undivided basis, by GroceryCo IPCo or its Affiliates, on the one hand, and SnackCo IPCo or its Affiliates, on the other hand, and may be used by either party or its Affiliates without a duty of accounting or other obligation to the other party.

The failure of the Indemnified Party to give notice as provided in this Section 5.5 shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations under this Agreement, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by the failure to give notice.

(b) With respect to any Third-Party Claim that is a Shared Liability:

(i) Upon the making of a Determination Request with respect to any Third-Party Claims, the applicable Indemnified Party shall assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim until a determination as to whether such Third-Party Claim is a Shared Liability. In the event of such assumption of defense, such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to reimbursement of all the costs and expenses of such defense once a final determination or acknowledgement is made that such Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification with respect to such Third-Party Claim; provided , that if such Third-Party Claim is determined to be a Shared Liability, such costs and expenses shall be shared as provided in Section 5.5(b)(ii). If it is determined or agreed that the Third-Party Claim is a Shared Liability, the Managing Party shall assume the defense of such Third-Party Claim as soon as reasonably practicable following such determination.

(iii) The Managing Party shall consult with the Non-Managing Party prior to taking any action with respect to any Third-Party Claim that is a Shared Liability if the Managing Party’s action could reasonably be expected to have a significant

46

adverse impact (financial or non-financial) on the Non-Managing Party, including a significant adverse impact on the rights, obligations, operations, standing or reputation of the Non-Managing Party (or its Subsidiaries or Affiliates), and the Managing Party shall not take such action without the prior written consent of the Non-Managing Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(iv) The Managing Party shall promptly give notice to the Non-Managing Party regarding the substance of any settlement related discussions with respect to any Third-Party Claim that is a Shared Liability if (A) the Non-Managing Party is required to share in any significant aspect of the costs and expenses, proceeds or obligations resulting from such settlement or (B) the settlement can reasonably be expected to have a significant impact (financial or nonfinancial) on the Non-Managing Party. In such instances, the Managing Party shall not settle such Third-Party Claim without the prior written consent of the Non-Managing Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(v) The Non-Managing Party shall cooperate, at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, in a reasonable manner in the defense of any Third-Party Claim that is a Shared Liability.

(i) Within 30 days after receipt of the notice given by the Indemnified Party pursuant to Section 5.5(a), the Indemnifying Party may either (A) assume and control the defense (including claims administration) of such Third-Party Claim at its sole cost and expense by giving written notice to that effect to the Indemnified Party or (B) object to the claim for indemnification set forth in such notice; provided , that if the Indemnifying Party does not within that 30-day period give the Indemnified Party written notice objecting to such indemnification claim and setting forth the grounds for the objection, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have acknowledged its liability for such indemnification claim. Until such time as the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of such Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to control the defense of such Third-Party Claim. GroceryCo shall provide a copy of any notice under this Section 5.5(d)(i) with respect to any workers’ compensation claim or any claim with respect to a Business Liability Claim Deductible to the risk manager or designee of same at SnackCo.

(ii) If the Indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of a Third-Party Claim in accordance with Section 5.5(d)(i), the defense of the Indemnified Party shall be controlled by the Indemnifying Party and counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party, which counsel shall 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. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.5, (A) in the event that a Business Liability Claim Deductible with respect to any Third-Party Claim has been paid, or there is a reasonable likelihood of exposure above the Business Liability Claim Deductible, then the party with exposure above the Business Liability Claim Deductible shall have the right to assume control of the defense and settlement of such Third-Party Claim and (B) with respect to any Products Action, the party reasonably likely to have the greater exposure shall have the right to control the defense and settlement of such Products Action from the commencement of such Products Action.

(iii) Where liability for an indemnification claim has been accepted under Section 5.5(d), (A) the Indemnified Party shall cooperate, at the cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, in a reasonable manner in the defense of any Third-Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Party has acknowledged liability, (B) the Indemnifying Party shall, upon request from the Indemnifying Party, promptly pay to the Indemnified Party the amount of any expense, loss or other amount subject to indemnification resulting from the Third-Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Party has acknowledged liability and (C) the Indemnified Party may exercise any and all of its rights under applicable Law to collect that amount.

(iv) If there is a timely objection by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to Section 5.5(d)(i), the Indemnified Party shall be entitled to exercise any remedies available under Article VII for a determination as to whether the Indemnified Party may be entitled to indemnification. If it has been Finally Determined that the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification, the Indemnifying Party shall, upon request from the Indemnified Party, promptly pay to the Indemnified Party the amount of any expense, loss or other amount subject to indemnification resulting from the Third-Party Claim for which the Indemnifying Party’s responsibility has been so Finally Determined. If the Indemnified Party does not seek a determination pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, then 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 such Third-Party Claim has been Finally Determined.

(v) The Indemnified Party shall take all necessary action to keep and maintain in force all insurance that applies to any claim for which indemnification is

48

sought. The Indemnified Party shall also use reasonable efforts to ensure that Insurance Proceeds received with respect to claims, costs and expenses under insurance policies in force shall be paid to reduce the net exposure of the Indemnified Party.

Section 5.6 Indemnification Obligations Net of Insurance Proceeds and Other Amounts .

(a) Each of GroceryCo (on behalf of itself and each other member of the GroceryCo Group) and SnackCo (on behalf of itself and each other member of the SnackCo Group) intends that any Liability subject to indemnification or reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement will be net of Insurance Proceeds and other amounts received that actually reduce the amount of the Liability for which indemnification is sought. Accordingly, the amount which any Indemnifying Party is required to pay to any Indemnified Party will be reduced by any Insurance Proceeds and other amounts theretofore actually recovered by or on behalf of the Indemnified Party in reduction of the related Liability. If an Indemnified Party receives a payment (an “ Indemnity Payment ”) required by this Agreement from an Indemnifying Party in respect of any Liability and subsequently receives Insurance Proceeds or other amounts therefor, then the Indemnified Party will promptly pay to the Indemnifying Party an amount equal to the excess of the Indemnity Payment received over the amount of the Indemnity Payment that would have been due if the Insurance Proceeds or other amounts had been received, realized or recovered.

(b) In the case of any Shared Liability, any Insurance Proceeds actually received, realized or recovered by any party in respect of the Shared Liability will be shared between the GroceryCo Group and the SnackCo Group in accordance with their respective Applicable Proportions, regardless of which Group may actually receive, realize or recover such Insurance Proceeds.

(c) An insurer that would otherwise be obligated to defend or make payment in response to any claim shall not be relieved of the responsibility with respect thereto or, solely by virtue of the indemnification provisions of this Agreement, have any subrogation rights with respect thereto, it being expressly understood and agreed that no insurer or any other Third Party shall be entitled to a “windfall” (i.e., a benefit it would not be entitled to receive in the absence of the indemnification provisions of this Agreement) by virtue of the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. It is understood that the retention of the insurance policies by an Indemnifying Party or an Indemnified Party is in no way intended to limit, inhibit or preclude any right to insurance coverage for any Liability or any other rights under any insurance policy by SnackCo, GroceryCo or any other Kraft Foods Inc. affiliated entity under any insurance policy for insurance coverage, defense, reimbursement, subrogation or otherwise.

(d) Upon indemnification of the Business Liability Claims Deductibles under this Agreement, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated to rights of the Indemnified Party against insurers or other Third Parties with respect to such indemnified amount. The Indemnified Party 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

49

indemnified amount or shall otherwise reasonably cooperate at the Indemnifying Party’s request and expense, with any attempt, by subrogation or otherwise, by the Indemnifying Party to recoup indemnified amounts from insurers or other Third Parties.

Section 5.7 Remedies Cumulative . The remedies provided in this Article V shall be cumulative and shall not preclude any Indemnified Party from asserting any other rights or the Indemnified Party from seeking any and all other remedies against any Indemnifying Party, except that the remedies provided in this Article V shall be the exclusive remedy for claims for contribution or other rights of recovery arising out of or relating to any Environmental Law, including the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (“ CERCLA ”), whether now or hereinafter in effect.

Section 5.8 Survival of Indemnities . The rights and obligations of each of GroceryCo or SnackCo and their respective Indemnified Parties under this Article V shall survive any party’s sale or other transfer of any Assets or businesses or assignment of any Liabilities.

In each case, the requesting party shall cooperate with the other party to minimize the risk of unreasonable interference with the other party’s business.

In the event access is granted to any Information in this Agreement or in the Ancillary Agreements to which access is restricted by Law or otherwise, the parties shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries 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.

(b) Each of GroceryCo and SnackCo agrees that it will only process personal data (as defined by EU Directive 95/46/EC of 24 October 1995) provided to it by the members of the other Group in accordance with all applicable privacy and data protection law obligations and will implement and maintain at all times appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect such personal data against unauthorized or unlawful processing and accidental loss, destruction, damage, alteration and disclosure.

Upon such request, the affected members of the applicable Group 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 to make the designated person or persons available to the requesting party upon 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 such persons’ business demands.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION

Section 7.1 Step Process . Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreements, or the breach thereof (a “ Dispute ”), shall be resolved: (a) first, by negotiation with the possibility of mediation as provided in Section 7.2; and (b) then, if negotiation and mediation fail, by binding arbitration as provided in Section 7.3. Each party agrees on behalf of itself and each member of its respective Group that the procedures set forth in this Article VII 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.

Section 7.2 Negotiation and Mediation . If either party serves written notice of a Dispute upon the other party (a “ Dispute Notice ”), the parties will first attempt to resolve such Dispute by direct discussions and negotiation. If the parties to the Dispute agree, the parties may also attempt to resolve the Dispute by a mediation administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Commercial Mediation Procedures.

Section 7.3 Arbitration .

(a) If a Dispute is not resolved within 45 days after the service of a Dispute Notice, either party shall have the right to commence arbitration.

The place of arbitration shall be New York City, 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 arbitrators 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 three. The claimant shall designate an arbitrator in its request for arbitration and the respondent shall designate an arbitrator in its answer to the request for arbitration. When the two co-arbitrators have been appointed, they shall have 21 days to select the chair of the arbitral tribunal, and if they are unable to do so, the ICDR shall appoint the chair by use of the “list method.”

Section 7.4 Interim 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.

Section 7.5 Remedies . The arbitrators shall have no authority or power to limit, expand, alter, amend, modify, revoke or suspend any condition or provision of this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement nor any right or power to award punitive, exemplary or treble (or other multiple) damages.

55

Section 7.6 Expenses . Each party shall bear its own costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees in pursuit and resolution of any Dispute; provided , however , that, in the event of any arbitration pursuant to Section 7.3, the non-prevailing party shall bear both parties’ costs, expenses and attorneys’ fees incurred in connection with such arbitration (including the fees of any arbitrator).
