Kraft Foods believes a combination with Cadbury will provide the potential for meaningful cost savings and revenue synergies from which Cadbury Securityholders will benefit.

Combination creates a global leader in the global foods and confectionery sector

We will now work with the Kraft Foods’ management to ensure the continued success and growth of the business for the benefit of our customers, consumers and employees.”

Cadbury Securityholders who have previously accepted the Original Offer (and have not withdrawn those acceptances) will automatically be deemed to have accepted the terms of the Final Offer by virtue of their prior acceptances and therefore need take no further action.

For Immediate Release

19 January 2010

RECOMMENDED FINAL⁽¹⁾ OFFER

KRAFT FOODS INC. (“KRAFT FOODS”)

for

CADBURY PLC (“CADBURY”)

VALUING EACH CADBURY SHARE AT 840 PENCE

1.	Introduction

The board of Kraft Foods is pleased to announce the detailed terms of a recommended Final⁽¹⁾ Offer to acquire the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Cadbury. The board of Cadbury unanimously recommends Cadbury Securityholders to accept the terms of the Final Offer.

2.	The Final⁽¹⁾ Offer

Under the terms of the Final Offer, Cadbury Securityholders will be entitled to receive:


for each Cadbury Share		500 pence in cash and 0.1874 New Kraft Foods Shares

for each Cadbury ADS		2,000 pence in cash and 0.7496 New Kraft Foods Shares

representing, in aggregate, 840 pence per Cadbury Share and GBP 33.60 per Cadbury ADS (based on the closing share price of USD 29.58 per Kraft Foods Share on 15 January 2010, the last trading day prior to the date of this announcement, and an exchange rate of USD 1.63 to GBP 1.00 as at 18 January 2010).

In addition, Cadbury has advised Kraft Foods that Cadbury Shareholders will be receiving 10 pence per Cadbury Share by way of a Special Dividend. This will, in effect, enable Cadbury Shareholders to receive 10 pence out of the planned final dividend of 12.3 pence per share previously announced by Cadbury, subject to board and shareholder approval, which would otherwise not become payable.⁽²⁾

Assuming the vesting and exercise of all share options and awards under the Cadbury Share Schemes:

•

the Final Offer values the entire issued and to be issued share capital of Cadbury at approximately GBP 11.9 billion; and

•

265 million New Kraft Foods Shares will be issued (assuming full acceptance of the Final Offer), representing approximately 18 per cent. of the existing share capital and 15 per cent. of the enlarged share capital of Kraft Foods.

The terms of the Final Offer supersede those of the Original Offer. The terms of the Original Offer are no longer capable of acceptance. Further information in relation to the Final Offer is set out in sections 11 and 16 of this announcement.

Mix and Match Facility

Cadbury Securityholders who accept the Final Offer may make elections under the Mix and Match Facility. Under the Mix and Match Facility, accepting Cadbury Securityholders may elect to vary the proportions in which they receive New Kraft Foods Shares and cash consideration, subject to off-setting elections being made by other Cadbury Securityholders. To the extent that elections cannot be satisfied in full, they will be scaled down on a pro-rata basis.

Reduction of Acceptance Condition

If the Acceptance Condition is satisfied and all other Conditions have been satisfied, fulfilled or, to the extent permitted, waived, the Offer will be declared wholly unconditional at that time and withdrawal rights will terminate (except in limited circumstances). Cadbury Securityholders who have already accepted the Offer, but whose willingness to accept the Offer is affected by the reduction of the Acceptance Condition, may wish to consider withdrawing their acceptances with respect to such Cadbury Shares promptly.

Condition regarding approval of Kraft Foods Shareholders

The issue of New Kraft Foods Shares pursuant to the Final Offer does not require the approval of Kraft Foods Shareholders. Accordingly, the condition relating to such approvals is treated as satisfied for the purposes of the Final Offer.

3.	The creation of a global leader in the food and confectionery industry

The board of Kraft Foods believes that a combination of Kraft Foods and Cadbury represents a strong and complementary strategic fit, creating a global confectionery leader, with a portfolio including more than 40 confectionery brands, each with annual sales in excess of USD 100 million. Globally, the Combined Group would be number one in the chocolate and sugar confectionery segments and a strong number two in the high growth gum segment. Cadbury’s leading brands, such as Cadbury, Trident and Halls, are highly complementary to Kraft Foods’ portfolio and would benefit from Kraft Foods’ global scope, scale and array of proprietary technologies and processes. In addition, the acquisition of Cadbury will significantly enhance the strength of Kraft Foods’ presence in the confectionery sector, enabling Kraft Foods to leverage Cadbury’s product development capabilities.

Kraft Foods believes that confectionery markets are consolidating and scale is becoming increasingly important, in part due to retailers’ increasing bargaining power, control of the supply chain and growing portfolio of their own retailer brands, which have benefited from the global economic climate. The combination of Kraft Foods and Cadbury provides the Combined Group with important additional scale to compete even more effectively in the confectionery sector.

Kraft Foods and Cadbury have highly complementary geographic footprints. Importantly, a combination would increase scale for both companies in developing markets such as Brazil, Russia and China, where Kraft Foods has a stronger presence, and India, Mexico and South Africa, where Cadbury holds leading positions. The Combined Group would also benefit from an improved position across Europe, including in France and Spain.

Kraft Foods’ and Cadbury’s routes to market are also highly complementary. Kraft Foods is particularly strong in the grocery channel in North America and Western Europe, while Cadbury is well positioned in instant consumption channels, which have become increasingly important in both developed and developing markets. A combination provides an enhanced platform for the Combined Group to distribute both Cadbury’s and Kraft Foods’ products through both channels, creating an attractive opportunity for higher growth and margins.

4.	The Final Offer represents an attractive opportunity for Cadbury Securityholders

The Final Offer equates to an enterprise value multiple of 13.0 times Cadbury’s underlying 2009 EBITDA⁽³⁾, based on the closing share price of USD 29.58 per Kraft Foods Share on 15 January 2010, and an exchange rate of USD 1.63 to GBP 1.00 as at 18 January 2010. The enterprise value multiple is calculated assuming the exercise of all share options and vesting of all share awards held under the Cadbury Share Schemes.

5.	Substantial synergy benefits

The combination of Kraft Foods and Cadbury is expected to provide the potential for meaningful revenue synergies over time from investments in distribution, marketing and product development. In addition, it is expected that pre-tax cost savings of at least USD 675 million annually can be realised by the end of the third year following completion. Total one-off implementation cash costs of approximately USD 1.3 billion are expected to be incurred in the first three years following completion.⁽⁴⁾

Both Kraft Foods and Cadbury have implemented extensive cost saving and operating efficiency programmes in recent years and have already delivered significant margin improvement and revenue growth improvements. These annual cost savings are still expected to be achieved over and above the current performance improvement plans at each of Kraft Foods and Cadbury (including Cadbury’s updated Vision into Action programme). While it is anticipated that these targeted savings will continue to be delivered, Kraft Foods believes that the Combined Group would be capable of achieving substantial further cost savings through economies of scale and procurement benefits, general and administrative cost savings and marketing and selling costs savings.

Cadbury Securityholders are able to share in the synergies resulting from the combination of Kraft Foods and Cadbury through the share component of the Offer.

6.	Recommendation

The board of Cadbury, which has been so advised by Goldman Sachs International, Morgan Stanley & Co. Limited and UBS Investment Bank considers the terms of the Final Offer to be fair and reasonable. In providing their financial advice to the board of Cadbury, Goldman Sachs International, Morgan Stanley & Co. Limited and UBS Investment Bank have taken into account the board’s commercial assessments.

Accordingly, the board of Cadbury unanimously recommends Cadbury Securityholders to accept the terms of the Final Offer.

7.	Financial effects of the transaction

Kraft Foods believes that the Final Offer will deliver the following key benefits:

•

accretion to earnings per share in 2011 of approximately USD 0.05 on a cash basis; and⁽⁴⁾

•

a mid teens return on investment, well in excess of Kraft Foods’ cost of capital⁽⁴⁾.

Kraft Foods believes that the Final Offer is consistent with its commitment to maintain a financially disciplined approach and is well within the key criteria outlined in Kraft Foods’ announcement of a possible offer for Cadbury on 7 September 2009:

•

accretion to earnings in the second year following completion on a cash basis⁽³⁾ (which excludes the one-time costs to achieve synergies and expenses related to the transaction and the impact of non-cash items such as the amortisation of intangibles after acquisition);

•

a return on investment in excess of Kraft Foods’ cost of capital within an acceptable timeframe;⁽⁴⁾

•

retention of Kraft Foods’ investment-grade credit rating; and

•

maintenance of Kraft Foods’ dividend.

Following the combination with Cadbury, Kraft Foods expects to revise its long-term growth targets to 5+ per cent. for revenue and 9-11 per cent. for earnings per share, from its previously announced 4+ per cent. and 7-9 per cent. respectively.⁽⁴⁾

In addition, the acquisition is expected to enhance the quality of the Combined Group’s earnings, and create a business with strong discretionary cash flow generation and attractive revenue growth prospects across a diversified portfolio of brands and product groups worldwide.

8.	Financing the cash consideration

Kraft Foods is providing the cash consideration payable by it under the Final Offer from its own resources, funds available from an amended bridge facility that has been arranged by a syndicate of banks and/or proceeds from alternative financing sources. A summary of the amended bridge facility will be included in the Final Offer Documents.

Lazard & Co., Limited, Centerview Partners UK LLP, Citigroup Global Markets Limited and Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch are satisfied that sufficient resources are available to Kraft Foods to satisfy in full the cash consideration payable by it as a result of full acceptance of the Final Offer.

9.	Management, employees and locations

Kraft Foods believes that the combination of Cadbury and Kraft Foods represents a strong, complementary fit and expects that the combination will enhance the Combined Group’s growth profile⁽³⁾. The combination will augment the world-class capabilities of both Kraft Foods and Cadbury by employing a “best of both” approach, from sales and marketing to distribution and management. In particular, Kraft Foods believes that the global business network of the Combined Group will create opportunities for Cadbury employees and managers.

In addition, Kraft Foods has given assurances to Cadbury that, on the Offer becoming or being declared wholly unconditional, the existing contractual employment rights, including pension rights, of all Cadbury Group employees will be fully safeguarded.

10.

Kraft Foods offers an excellent investment opportunity

Kraft Foods believes that scale is important in the global food industry

As the world’s second largest food company, with 2008 revenues of USD 41.9 billion, Kraft Foods has significant global scale, with operations in more than 70 countries. While the US is a key market and Kraft Foods is the number one food company there based on retail sales, Kraft Foods generated approximately half of its revenues from outside the US in 2008 and sells its products in approximately 150 countries around the world.

Kraft Foods believes that its portfolio of leading brands is one of the strongest in the global food industry, with nine of its brands generating annual revenues exceeding USD 1 billion each. Kraft Foods’ objective is to be the category leader in its principal markets and it generates 80 per cent. of its revenues from categories in which it holds the number one position.

Over the past three years, Kraft Foods’ management has successfully re-positioned the company for sustainable, profitable growth by reframing its categories, capitalising on its established sales capabilities and driving down costs without compromising its commitment to high quality. Kraft Foods’ strategy is centred on marketing and developing leading consumer brands and pursuing growth opportunities to deliver shareholder value. Kraft Foods remains confident in meeting its long-term performance targets.

Kraft Foods has upgraded its EPS guidance

On 12 January 2010, Kraft Foods increased its guidance for 2009 diluted earnings per share, to at least USD 2.00 (up approximately five per cent. from 2008) versus the previous expectation of at least USD 1.97⁽⁵⁾. This increased guidance reflects strong operating gains as well as a significant increase in marketing investments versus the prior year. Kraft Foods expects to achieve this level of diluted earnings per share while continuing to increase investment behind its brands, with advertising and consumer marketing spending expected to grow to approximately 7 per cent. of sales in 2009 from 6.7 per cent. of sales in 2008.

Kraft Foods’ share price

Since the announcement of its possible offer for Cadbury on 7 September 2009, Kraft Foods believes its share price performance has been adversely affected by a number of factors of a short-term nature, including: (i) concern that it will not maintain financial discipline regarding an acquisition of Cadbury; (ii) concern that the issuance of Kraft Foods Shares to certain Cadbury Securityholders may result in “flowback” of such shares; and (iii) short selling activity. Kraft Foods believes that, following completion of its acquisition of Cadbury, these short-term pressures on its share price should dissipate.

By way of illustration, Kraft Foods notes the following:

•

Kraft Foods has historically traded on a current year price earnings multiple broadly in line with that of the S&P 500 Index. Based on Kraft Foods’ own guidance for its 2009 diluted earnings per share of at least USD 2.00⁽⁵⁾, Kraft Foods’ historical 2009 price earnings multiple is 14.8 times as at 15 January 2010 (the last trading day prior to the publication of this announcement). The historical 2009 price earnings multiple of the S&P 500 Index is 24.4 times as at the same date;

•

between 4 September 2009 (the last Business Day preceding the announcement of its possible offer for Cadbury) and 15 January 2010 (the last trading day prior to the publication of this announcement), the Kraft Foods Share price has increased by approximately 5.3 per cent. from USD 28.10 to USD 29.58. However, the S&P 500 Index has increased by approximately 11.8 per cent. over the same period;

•

analysts’ consensus price target for Kraft Foods Shares is USD 32.67 and 92 per cent. of Kraft Foods’ current analyst recommendations are either a “buy” or a “hold”; and

•

Kraft Foods Shares currently have a dividend yield of approximately 4 per cent.

Subject to clarifying certain legal and regulatory considerations and with the agreement of the Panel, Kraft Foods has agreed to consider offering a free dealing facility to Cadbury Shareholders who own not more than 10,000 Cadbury Shares under which the New Kraft Foods Shares to which such Cadbury Shareholders become entitled under the Final Offer may be sold for their benefit at no cost. Details of such facility, if provided, will be communicated to Cadbury Shareholders in due course.

16.

Notice to US investors

Forward-looking statements

Certain statements contained or incorporated by reference in this announcement may constitute “forward-looking statements”. All statements in this announcement, other than those relating to historical information or current condition, are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond the control of Kraft Foods, that could cause Kraft Foods’ actual results to differ materially from those indicated in any such statements. Such factors include, but are not limited to, continued volatility of input costs, pricing actions, increased competition, Kraft Foods’ ability to differentiate its products from retailer brands, unanticipated expenses in connection with litigation, settlement of legal disputes, regulatory investigations or enforcement actions, Kraft Foods’ indebtedness and ability to pay its indebtedness, the shift in consumer preference to lower priced products, risks from operating outside the US, tax law changes, failure to obtain necessary regulatory approvals or required financing or to satisfy any of the other Conditions of the Offer, adverse effects on the market price of Kraft Foods Shares and on Kraft Foods’ operating results because of a failure to complete the proposed acquisition, failure to realise the expected benefits of the proposed acquisition, significant transaction costs and/or unknown liabilities and general economic and business conditions that affect the Combined Group following the completion of the proposed acquisition. For more information on these and other factors that could affect Kraft Foods’ forward-looking statements, please also see the section entitled “Risk Factors” in the Prospectus or in the Original US Offer Document, as applicable, and the risk factors in Kraft Foods’ filings with the SEC, including Kraft Foods’ most recently filed annual report on Form 10-K and subsequent reports on Forms 10-Q and 8-K. Kraft Foods disclaims and does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statement in this announcement except as required by applicable law or regulation.

Additional US-related information

Kraft Foods has filed the Registration Statement and tender offer documents with the SEC, which will be amended to reflect the terms of the Offer, and Cadbury will file an amendment to its solicitation / recommendation statement on Schedule 14D-9 in connection with the Final Offer . Cadbury US Shareholders, Cadbury Canadian Shareholders and Cadbury ADS Holders, wherever located, should read those filings, and any other filings to be made by Kraft Foods and Cadbury with the SEC in connection with the Offer as they contain important information. Those documents, as well as Kraft Foods’ other public filings with the SEC may be obtained without charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov and at Kraft Foods’ website at www.kraftfoodscompany.com. In this announcement, Kraft Foods has presented the Offer by referring to multiples of Cadbury’s underlying earnings per share and underlying EBITDA under IFRS. Underlying earnings per share and EBITDA are non-US GAAP measures for IFRS purposes. The Registration Statement includes a discussion of the reasons why Kraft Foods’ management believes that Kraft Foods’ presentation of multiples of Cadbury’s underlying earnings per share and underlying EBITDA under IFRS provides useful information to Cadbury Securityholders and disclosure of the limitations of underlying earnings per share and EBITDA as an analytical tool.

APPENDIX I: SOURCES AND BASES

(a)	Unless otherwise stated, financial and other information concerning Cadbury and Kraft Foods has been extracted from published sources or from Kraft Foods’ management sources.

(b)

Cadbury’s issued and to be issued share capital is based upon 1,373,872,386 Cadbury Shares in issue as at 18 January 2010 as disclosed by Cadbury in its Regulatory Information Service announcement made in accordance with Rule 2.10 of the Takeover Code dated 18 January 2010 and 39,310,631 Cadbury Shares that could be issued to satisfy the exercise and vesting of options and awards under the Cadbury Share Schemes (assuming exercise and vesting of such options and awards in full) as at the close of business on 14 January 2010 based on the figure of 39,478,935 Cadbury Shares disclosed in the Cadbury Second Defence Document as updated by figures disclosed on behalf of Cadbury to Lazard & Co., Limited on 15 January 2010 for the purposes of Note 3 on Rule 10 of the Takeover Code.

(c)	The stated share prices of Cadbury are based on the closing middle-market prices as derived from the daily official list of the London Stock Exchange on any particular date.

(g)	The issuance of New Kraft Foods Shares and their value as a percentage of the existing and enlarged share capital is based on:

(i)

1,413,183,017 Cadbury Shares in issue and to be issued as in (b) above;

(ii)

the number of New Kraft Foods Shares offered for each Cadbury Share pursuant to the Final Offer resulting in 264,830,497 Kraft Foods Shares in total being issued to Cadbury Securityholders;

Underlying is defined by Cadbury to mean adjusted for restructuring costs, non-trading items, amortisation and impairment of acquisition intangibles, derivative accounting and any associated tax effect; and

(ii)

(i)

January 19, 2010

Dear Fellow Shareholder:

We are pleased to provide you with an update on our proposed acquisition of Cadbury plc.

Today, we made a final offer that the Board of Directors of Cadbury plc has unanimously recommended that its shareholders accept. Our final offer consists of 500 pence in cash and 0.1874 shares of Kraft Foods common stock for each outstanding Cadbury ordinary share, including each Cadbury ordinary share represented by a Cadbury American Depositary Share. We reached this excellent result by maintaining a highly disciplined approach, staying well within our stated financial criteria and focusing on the compelling rationale for combining Kraft Foods and Cadbury.

From a financial perspective, we expect the transaction to deliver excellent returns to our shareholders. We believe it will:

•

be approximately $0.05 accretive to earnings per share in 2011 on a cash basis (which excludes the one-time expenses related to the acquisition and the impact of non-cash items such as the amortization of intangibles from the acquisition);

•

yield a mid-teens internal rate of return;

•

enable us to maintain our investment-grade rating; and

•

enable us to maintain our dividend per share.

Further, we expect to increase our long-term revenue growth target to 5+% and our long-term EPS growth target to 9-11%.

From a strategic perspective, we believe the combination of Kraft Foods and Cadbury will:

•

create a strong combined portfolio with leading market positions in the fast-growing confectionery category;

•

have a significantly strengthened footprint in developing markets, with enhanced scale;

•

benefit from world-class infrastructure in traditional and instant consumption channels; and

•

offer meaningful revenue synergies and significant cost savings.

Put simply, we believe that Kraft Foods and Cadbury are a perfect strategic fit. With Cadbury’s support and cooperation, we can move quickly and efficiently to realize the full benefits that we expect from this transaction.

Your Board is pleased that we have fulfilled the desire expressed by many of you to minimize our use of Kraft Foods stock in the transaction. The final offer greatly reduces the number of Kraft Foods shares we will issue to acquire Cadbury to an estimated 265 million shares from as many as 370 million shares in our prior offer.

The aggregate share component of the final offer is below the 20% threshold set by the New York Stock Exchange rules for shareholder approval. As a result, we do not have a basis under UK regulations to condition the final offer we announced today on a shareholder vote. Accordingly, the Special Meeting that we had scheduled for February 1, 2010 is canceled.

On behalf of your Board, I thank you for your continued support. I am pleased that we are pursuing this transformational acquisition in a way that we believe will deliver significant long-term value for Kraft Foods and all of our shareholders.

Sincerely,

LOGO

Irene B. Rosenfeld

Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer

Cadbury Board Unanimously Recommends Our Final Offer

January 19, 2010—I’m delighted to share exciting news about a major step forward in our effort to acquire Cadbury.

Today, we made our final offer for Cadbury, which its board of directors has unanimously recommended that its shareholders accept. The offer consists of 500 pence in cash and .1874 shares of Kraft Foods stock for each share of Cadbury stock. You can read all the details about the offer in the press release that we’ve just issued.

This will be a transformational acquisition that we believe will deliver significant long-term value for Kraft Foods and all of our shareholders. We believe the combination of Kraft Foods and Cadbury will:

•

Create a strong combined portfolio with leading market positions in the fast-growing confectionery category;

•

Have significantly enhanced scale and a strengthened footprint in developing markets;

•

Benefit from best-in-class infrastructure in traditional and instant consumption channels; and

•

Offer meaningful revenue synergies and significant cost savings.

Put simply, we believe that Kraft Foods and Cadbury are a powerful combination.

This is an historic moment for Kraft Foods and Cadbury that we’ve reached by focusing on the compelling rationale for combining these two great companies; maintaining a highly disciplined approach to the transaction, and staying well within our stated financial criteria.

Up next: Cadbury shareholders have until February 2 to tender their shares to us. With the support of Cadbury’s Board, we expect that the offer process will move quickly to a successful conclusion.

Meanwhile, there is still much work to do to complete the transaction and to prepare for integrating our two companies to ensure that we can create the “best of both.” Cadbury has a long history and is rightly proud of its heritage, its brands and its products. We should all continue our planning full speed ahead, but I would ask that you not yet reach out to friends or counterparts at Cadbury. We will keep you posted on our integration plans, including the timetable for reaching out to people at Cadbury.

I know you share my enthusiasm as we execute our plans to create a global powerhouse in snacks, confectionery and quick meals. Thanks to everyone for all the work that has led to getting us this far. I knew I could count on you!

DEALING DISCLOSURE REQUIREMENTS

Under the provisions of Rule 8.3 of the U.K. Takeover Code (the “Code”), if any person is or becomes “interested” (directly or indirectly) in 1 per cent. or more of any class of “relevant securities” of Kraft Foods or of Cadbury plc, all “dealings” in any “relevant securities” of that company (including by means of an option in respect of, or a derivative referenced to, any such “relevant securities”) must be publicly disclosed by no later than 10:30 a.m. (New York City time) / 3:30 p.m. (London time) on the London business day following the date of the relevant transaction. This requirement will continue until the date on which the Offer becomes, or is declared, unconditional as to acceptances, lapses or is otherwise withdrawn or on which the “offer period” otherwise ends. If two or more persons act together pursuant to an agreement or understanding, whether formal or informal, to acquire an “interest” in “relevant securities” of Kraft Foods or of Cadbury plc, they will be deemed to be a single person for the purpose of Rule 8.3.

Under the provisions of Rule 8.1 of the Code, all “dealings” in “‘relevant securities” of Kraft Foods or Cadbury plc by Kraft Foods or Cadbury plc, or by any of their respective “associates”, must be disclosed by no later than 7:00 a.m. (New York City time) / 12:00 noon (London time) on the London business day following the date of the relevant transaction.

A disclosure table, giving details of the companies in whose “relevant securities” “dealings” should be disclosed, and the number of such securities in issue, can be found on the website of the U.K. Panel on Takeovers and Mergers (the “U.K. Takeover Panel”) at www.thetakeoverpanel.org.uk.

“Interests in securities” arise, in summary, when a person has long economic exposure, whether conditional or absolute, to changes in the price of “relevant securities”. In particular, a person will be treated as having an “interest” by virtue of the ownership or control of securities, or by virtue of any option in respect of, or derivative referenced to, securities.

Terms in quotation marks are defined in the Code, which can also be found on the U.K. Takeover Panel’s website. If you are in any doubt as to whether or not you are required to disclose a “dealing” under Rule 8, you should consult the U.K. Takeover Panel.

per share; our four priorities of focusing on growth categories, expanding our footprint in developing markets, expanding our presence in growing trade

channels and targeting industry-leading margins shape our long-term strategy; Kraft Foods and Cadbury are a perfect strategic fit, with a strong combined

portfolio with leading market positions in the fast-growing confectionery category; confectionery is an attractive category; combined, we will be the global

leader in confectionery with a diversified portfolio of leading confectionery brands, we will significantly strengthen our developing markets footprint, increasing

scale for both companies; Kraft Foods and Cadbury have highly complementary sales and distribution capabilities in traditional and instant consumption

channels; combined, we would have exceptional go-to-market capabilities; the combination has the potential for meaningful revenue synergies and cost

the global food industry; the recommended offer represents an attractive value for Cadbury shareholders, transforms the portfolio that enhances our long-term

growth prospects, and generates a strong economic return. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of

which are beyond our control, that could cause our actual results to differ materially from those indicated in any such forward-looking statements. Such factors

include, but are not limited to, continued volatility of input costs, pricing actions, increased competition, our ability to differentiate our products from retailer

brands, unanticipated expenses in connection with litigation, settlement of legal disputes, regulatory investigations or enforcement actions, our indebtedness

and ability to pay our indebtedness, the shift in consumer preference to lower priced products, risks from operating outside the U.S., tax law changes, failure to

obtain necessary regulatory approvals or required financing or to satisfy any of the other conditions to the combination, adverse effects on the market price of

our common stock and on our operating results because of a failure to complete the combination, failure to realize the expected benefits of the combination,

significant transaction costs and/or unknown liabilities and general economic and business conditions that affect the combined companies following the

OFFER

KRAFT FOODS INC.

for

CADBURY PLC

Offer Update

Introduction

On 9 November 2009, Kraft Foods announced its firm intention to make an offer to acquire the whole of the issued and to be issued share capital of Cadbury (the “Offer”). On 19 January 2010, Kraft Foods announced the detailed terms of a recommended Final* Offer for Cadbury. Under the terms of the Final Offer, Cadbury Securityholders will be entitled to receive:


for each Cadbury Share		500 pence in cash
		and
		0.1874 New Kraft Foods Shares

for each Cadbury ADS		2,000 pence in cash
		and
		0.7496 New Kraft Foods Shares

representing, in aggregate, 840 pence per Cadbury Share and GBP 33.60 per Cadbury ADS (based on the closing share price of USD 29.58 per Kraft Foods Share on 15 January 2010, the last trading day prior to the date of this announcement and an exchange rate of USD 1.63 to GBP 1.00 on 18 January 2010).

In addition, Cadbury Shareholders will be entitled to receive 10 pence per Cadbury Share by way of a Special Dividend following the date on which the Final Offer becomes or is declared unconditional.

Level of acceptances

As at 5.00 p.m. (London time) on 15 January 2010, being the last practicable date prior to the publication of this announcement, Kraft Foods had received valid acceptances of the Offer in respect of a total of 20,768,378 Cadbury Shares (including those represented by Cadbury ADSs), representing approximately 1.51 per cent. of the existing issued share capital of Cadbury, which Kraft Foods may count towards the satisfaction of the acceptance condition to the Offer. None of these acceptances had been received from persons acting in concert with Kraft Foods.

Cadbury Securityholders who have already accepted the Original Offer (and have not withdrawn those acceptances) will automatically be deemed to have accepted the terms of the Final Offer by virtue of their prior acceptances and therefore need take no further action.

Other Cadbury Securityholders who wish to accept the recommended Final Offer must take action to accept the Final Offer by 1.00 p.m. (London time) / 8.00 a.m. (New York City time) on 2 February 2010. Details of the procedure for doing so will be set out in the Final Offer Documents (including, in the case of certificated Cadbury Shares and Cadbury ADSs, the Final Acceptance Forms) to be sent to Cadbury Securityholders as soon as practicable. The Final Offer Documents will also be available on Kraft Foods’ website (www.transactioninfo.com/kraftfoods/).

Interests in Cadbury Shares

On 15 January 2010 (being the latest practicable date prior to the publication of this announcement), Kraft Foods or any person acting in concert with Kraft Foods had the following interests in or rights to subscribe for relevant securities of Cadbury:


Name	Nature of interest	Number of Cadbury Shares	Number of Cadbury ADSs	Percentage of Cadbury’s existing issued share capital
