Re:		Contract Manufacturing Agreement dated July 30, 2004 by and between R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company (“RJRTC”) and BATUS Japan, Inc (“BATUS Japan”) (the “Contract Manufacturing Agreement”) — Termination

Dear Mark:

We refer to the Contract Manufacturing Agreement and the agreement between RJRTC and BATUS Japan that, in accordance with Sub-Section 4.2(a) of the Contract Manufacturing Agreement, the Contract Manufacturing Agreement shall, subject to the following paragraphs, be terminated in its entirety with effect from midnight on December 31, 2009.

Notwithstanding Sub-Sections 4.3, 4.4, 4.6 and 4.7 of the Contract Manufacturing Agreement:

(i)		the provisions of Sections and Sub-Sections 1 (Definitions), 3.4 (Rejected Products), 3.5 (Audit Rights of BATUS Japan), 3.6 (Audit Rights of RJRTC), 5 (Confidentiality), 6.2 (Limitation of Remedies, Liability and Damages), 6.6 (Export Laws), 6.8 (BATUS Japan’s Indemnity Obligations), 6.9 (RJRTC’s Indemnity Obligations), 7.5 (Governing Law), 7.6 (Jurisdiction), 7.7 (Alternative Dispute Resolution) and 7.10 (Notices) (the “Surviving Provisions”) will continue in effect after termination;
(ii)		other than the Surviving Provisions, no provisions of the Contract Manufacturing Agreement will continue in effect after termination (including, for the avoidance of doubt, Sub-Section 4.4 (Right of First Refusal));
(iii)		the provisions of Sub-Section 4.3 (Effect of Termination) shall not apply to the agreed termination and shall be deemed deleted from the Contract Manufacturing Agreement; and
(iv)		subject to the paragraph below, termination will not impair or extinguish any accrued right, obligation or liability that either RJRTC or BATUS Japan may have under the Contract Manufacturing Agreement as at the date of this letter.

In consideration of RJRTC agreeing to terminate the Contract Manufacturing Agreement on the terms set out above and the full and final settlement of all disputes currently at issue between RJRTC and BATUS Japan associated with the Contract Manufacturing Agreement, BATUS Japan shall pay to RJRTC the sum of twenty million five hundred and twenty eight thousand United States dollars (US$20,528,000) within thirty days of the date of this letter.
