KRAFT FOODS INC.
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of debentures, notes
or other evidences of indebtedness (hereinafter called the
"Securities") of the Company of the series hereinafter specified,
which series is limited in aggregate principal amount to
$500,000,000 (except as provided in the Indenture hereinafter
mentioned), all such Securities issued and to be issued under an
Indenture dated as of October 17, 2001 between the Company and
Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (as successor to The Bank of
New York and The Chase Manhattan Bank), as Trustee (herein called
the "Indenture"), to which Indenture and all other indentures
supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of
the rights and limitations of rights thereunder of the Holders of
the Securities and of the rights, obligations, duties and
immunities of the Trustee for each series of Securities and of the
Company, and the terms upon which the Securities are and are to be
authenticated and delivered. As provided in the Indenture, the
Securities may be issued in one or more series, which different
series may be issued in various aggregate principal amounts, may
mature at different times, may bear interest, if any, at different
rates, may be subject to different redemption provisions, if any,
may be subject to different sinking, purchase or analogous funds,
if any, may be subject to different covenants and Events of Default
and may otherwise vary as in the Indenture provided or permitted.
This Note is one of a series of the Securities designated therein
as 6.75% Notes due 2014 (the "Notes").
The Company may, without the consent of the Holders of the
Notes, issue additional notes having the same ranking and the same
interest rate, maturity and other terms as the Notes, except for
the issue price, issue date and, in some cases, the first payment
of interest or interest accruing prior to the issue date of such
additional notes. Any additional notes having such similar terms,
together with the Notes, shall constitute a single series of notes
under the Indenture. No additional notes may be issued if an Event
of Default has occurred with respect to the Notes.
Change of Control
If a Change of Control Triggering Event (as defined below)
occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem the
Notes, Holders may require the Company to repurchase all or any
part (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess
thereof) of their Notes pursuant to an offer (the "Change of
Control Offer") of payment in cash equal to 101% of the aggregate
principal amount of Notes repurchased plus accrued and unpaid
interest, if any, on the Notes repurchased, to the date of purchase
(the "Change of Control Payment"). Within 30 days following any
Change of Control Triggering Event, the Company will mail a notice
to Holders describing the transaction or transactions that
constitute the Change of Control Triggering Event and offering to
repurchase the Notes on the date specified in the notice, which
date will be no earlier than 30 days and no later than 60 days from
the date such notice is mailed (the "Change of Control Payment
Date"), pursuant to the procedures described in such notice. The
Company must comply with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") and any other
securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent those laws
and regulations are applicable in connection with the repurchase of
the Notes as a result of a Change of Control Triggering Event. To
the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or
regulations conflict

with the Change of Control provisions of the
Notes, the Company will comply with the applicable securities laws
and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its
obligations under the Change of Control provisions of the Notes by
virtue of such conflicts.
