Introduction 
On 2 February 2010, Kraft Foods declared its recommended Final Offer wholly 
unconditional. 
The Final Offer remains open until further notice. Kraft Foods will give at 
least 14 days' notice if Kraft Foods decides to close the Final Offer. 
Result of elections under the Mix and Match Facility 
Kraft Foods will settle valid elections under the Mix and Match Facility 
received between 1 p.m. (London time) / 8 a.m. (New York City time) on 23 
February 2010 and 1 p.m. (London time) / 8 a.m. (New York City time) on 2 March 
2010 together on the same settlement date. Accordingly, to the extent possible, 
each election received under the Mix and Match Facility during this period will 
be off-set against the other such elections received during this period. 
During this period: (i) valid elections for additional New Kraft Foods Shares 
under the Mix and Match Facility had been received in respect of 5,007,565 
Cadbury Shares (including those represented by Cadbury ADSs) and (ii) valid 
elections for additional cash under the Mix and Match Facility had been received 
in respect of 1,010,542 Cadbury Shares (including those represented by Cadbury 
ADSs). 
Accordingly, valid elections received during this period: (i) for additional New 
Kraft Foods Shares will be scaled down on a pro rata basis; and (ii) for 
additional cash will be satisfied in full, with the result that: 
·    Cadbury Securityholders who have made an election to receive additional New 
Kraft Foods Shares under the Mix and Match Facility will receive 0.225217 New 
Kraft Foods Shares and GBP 4.397184 in cash per Cadbury Share and 0.900868 New 
Kraft Foods Shares and GBP 17.588736 in cash per Cadbury ADS, in each case in 
respect of which a valid election has been made; and 
·    Cadbury Securityholders who have made an election to receive additional 
cash under the Mix and Match Facility will receive GBP 7.987146 in cash per 
Cadbury Share and GBP 31.948584 in cash per Cadbury ADS, in each case in respect 
of which a valid election has been made. 
The Mix and Match Facility will remain open until the end of the Subsequent 
Offer Period. 
Cadbury Securityholders who have not yet accepted, and wish to accept, the Offer 
should take action to accept the Offer as soon as possible.  Details of the 
procedure for doing so are set out in the Final Offer Documents (including, in 
the case of certificated Cadbury Shares and Cadbury ADSs, the Final Acceptance 
Forms).  The Final Offer Documents are also available on Kraft Foods' website
