ARTICLE 5

U.S. PENSION PLAN SPIN-OFF

Section 5.01 General Principle. Effective on or before the Distribution Date, DPSG shall establish and adopt a defined benefit pension benefit plan and trust (the “DPSG Pension Plan”) intended to be qualified under IRS Code Section 401(a) and containing provisions that will provide to each DPSG Business Employee and Former DPSG Employee (and each alternate payee or beneficiary of such person) (the “DPSG Pension Beneficiaries”) benefits identical to those accrued with respect to such person under the Cadbury Pension Plan as of December 31, 2007 (the “Pension Measurement Date”). On or before the Distribution Date, Cadbury shall (i) determine the Initial Transfer Amount (as defined below) and (ii) cause assets equal to the Initial Transfer Amount (adjusted as provided below) to be transferred to the trust under the DPSG Pension Plan in the form described below (the “Initial Transfer”). As of the date of such transfer of the Initial Transfer Amount (the “Initial Transfer Date”), DPSG shall commence making the required benefit payments under the terms of the DPSG Pension Plan and shall assume all liabilities with respect to the payment of benefits previously accrued by the DPSG Pension Beneficiaries under the Cadbury Pension Plan. A DPSG Business Employee shall not accrue benefits under the Cadbury Pension Plan after the date on which such employee becomes eligible to participate under the DPSG Pension Plan, unless such DPSG Pension Beneficiary shall become employed by Cadbury or a Cadbury Subsidiary after such date. A Cadbury Business Employee shall not accrue benefits under the DPSG Pension Plan, unless such Cadbury Business Employee shall become employed by DPSG or a DPSG Subsidiary. Following the Initial Transfer Date (i) an enrolled actuary appointed by Cadbury (the “Cadbury Actuary”) shall determine the Final Pension Transfer Amount (as defined below) and (ii) a True-Up Adjustment shall be made with respect to the Cadbury Pension Plan and the DPSG Pension Plan, as provided below. The Parties shall use reasonable commercial efforts to cause the determination of the Final Pension Transfer Amount and the True-Up Adjustment to be completed as reasonably promptly as practicable, subject to the time frames established under Section 5.03, but in no event later than December 31, 2008. Before or promptly after the date hereof, Cadbury and DPSG shall file requests with the IRS for qualification determination letters under IRS Code Section 401(a) with respect to the Cadbury Pension Plan and the DPSG Pension Plan and shall take any and all reasonable action, including the adoption of any amendments requested by the IRS, as shall be necessary to obtain such determination letters. The transfers hereunder shall occur prior to, but subject to the subsequent receipt of, favorable determination letters issued by the IRS with respect to the Cadbury Pension Plan and DPSG Pension Plan, copies of which shall be shared among Cadbury and DPSG promptly upon issuance.

Section 5.02 Determination and Transfer of Initial Transfer Amount. On or before the Distribution Date, with the assistance of the Cadbury Actuary, Cadbury shall establish and communicate to DPSG the amount equal to 90% of the estimated asset transfer amount calculated as of January 1, 2008 in accordance with IRS Code Section 414(l) but based on January 1, 2007 census data and November 30, 2007 trust assets as attributable to benefits accrued by DPSG Pension Beneficiaries under the Cadbury Pension Plan as of the Pension Measurement Date, adjusted for contributions, distributions, trust gains and losses, payments and other appropriate items occurring between the Pension Measurement Date and the Initial Transfer Date, all as estimated in good faith by Cadbury (the “Initial Transfer Amount”).

Following the determination of the Initial Transfer Amount by Cadbury, Cadbury shall cause to be transferred from the trust under the Cadbury Pension Plan to the trust under the DPSG Pension Plan assets having an aggregate Value (as defined below) equal to the Initial Transfer Amount. Such assets shall be in the form of cash, securities and other property, determined in accordance with the provisions below.

Section 5.03 Determination of the Final Pension Transfer Amount.

(a) Calculation of the Cadbury Actuary. Following the Distribution Date, the Cadbury Actuary shall determine the Final Pension Transfer Amount, which shall be equal to the amount required to be transferred from the Cadbury Pension Plan to the DPSG Pension Plan in respect of the assumption by the DPSG Pension Plan of the benefit obligations of the Cadbury Pension Plan of benefits accrued by the DPSG Pension Beneficiaries as of the Pension Measurement Date, as determined in accordance with IRS Code Section 414(l) and the regulations thereunder and the actuarial assumptions and methods set forth in Schedule 6.03 hereof, as appropriately adjusted to reflect the following amounts arising after the Pension Measurement Date and before the True-Up Adjustment: (A) any distributions and contributions made in respect of the DPSG Pension Beneficiaries, (B) administrative expenses of the Cadbury Pension Plan reasonably allocable to the DPSG Pension Beneficiaries, (C) earnings realized by the Cadbury Pension Plan allocable to the DPSG Pension Beneficiaries, (D) the net gain or loss (realized and unrealized) of the Cadbury Pension Plan allocable to the DPSG Pension Beneficiaries and (E) other appropriate items. Cadbury and DPSG shall each be responsible for the funding of their respective pension plans. It is anticipated that each pension plan will have underfunding under ERISA Section 4044. Each party shall be responsible for funding such underfunding under their respective pension plan. Promptly upon determination of the Final Pension Transfer Amount, Cadbury shall cause the Cadbury Actuary to provide to DPSG a written statement of the Final Pension Transfer Amount, a summary of the calculation of such amount (the “Pension Statement”) and a written statement that the sum of the Initial Transfer Amount and the Final Pension Transfer Amount satisfies the requirements of IRS Code Section 414(l).

(b) Resolution of Differences. Cadbury shall provide DPSG with all information reasonably necessary to review the calculation of the Final Pension Transfer Amount in all material respects and to verify that such calculations have been performed in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The determination of the Final Pension Transfer Amount by the Cadbury Actuary shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes under this Agreement, unless DPSG provides to Cadbury, within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Pension Statement, a written objection prepared by an enrolled actuary retained by DPSG setting forth in detail a reasonable basis for the conclusion that the Final Pension Transfer Amount set forth in the Pension Statement is understated by an amount in excess of 5%. Upon receipt of such objection, Cadbury and DPSG shall make a good faith attempt to resolve their dispute as to the Final Pension Transfer Amount. Should such dispute remain unresolved for more than thirty (30) days, Cadbury and DPSG shall promptly select and appoint a third enrolled actuary who is mutually satisfactory to both Parties. The third actuary shall recalculate the Final Pension Transfer Amount and if such recalculated amount exceeds the Final Pension Transfer Amount set forth in the Pension Statement by more than 5%, then such recalculated amount shall serve as the Final Pension Transfer Amount for all purposes under this Agreement. If such recalculated

amount does not exceed the Final Pension Transfer Amount set forth in the Pension Statement by more than 5%, then for all purposes under this Agreement the Final Pension Transfer Amount shall be the Final Pension Transfer Amount as set forth in the Pension Statement. The recalculation of such third party actuary shall be completed within thirty (30) days of the retention of such third party actuary and shall be conclusive as to any dispute with respect to the Final Pension Transfer Amount, except as set forth in Section 5.05 below. The cost of such third party actuary shall be divided equally between Cadbury and DPSG. Each Party shall be responsible for the cost of its own actuary.

Section 5.04 True-Up Adjustment. The following transfer shall be made promptly after the date that the Final Pension Transfer Amount is determined as set forth above: (A) if the Final Pension Transfer Amount exceeds the Initial Transfer Amount, Cadbury shall promptly cause to be transferred from the Cadbury Pension Plan trust to the DPSG Pension Plan trust assets having a Value equal to such excess and (B) if the Initial Transfer Amount exceeds the Final Pension Transfer Amount, DPSG shall promptly cause to be transferred from the DPSG Pension Plan trust to the Cadbury Pension Plan trust assets having a Value equal to such excess.

Section 5.05 Form and Selection of Assets to be Transferred. The assets to be transferred in the Initial Transfer and the True-Up Adjustment Assets will be transferred in-kind or in cash pro rata from each investment manager under the transferring plan in a manner that represents, as closely as commercially practical, a pro rata portion of each asset and position held by the manager as of the date of such transfer, except that reasonable adjustments shall be made where Cadbury determines such transfers cannot reasonably be made by the Cadbury Pension Plan due to investment manager account minimums or where other considerations prevent such pro rata transfers or render such pro rata transfers impractical. For purposes of the Agreement, the "Value” of all pension assets shall be the value of such assets as determined in good faith by Cadbury based on all relevant information known to Cadbury at the time of such determination, including the most recent account statements or schedules of asset values provided to Cadbury by any service providers maintaining or overseeing any such assets or any investment vehicles which represent or hold the relevant plan assets. Cadbury shall select the assets to be transferred and provide a schedule of such assets to DPSG 14 days prior to the transfer of such assets. DPSG shall communicate to Cadbury any objection to the schedule of the assets to be transferred promptly, and upon receipt by Cadbury of such objection, Cadbury and DPSG shall make a good faith attempt to resolve their dispute as to the assets to be transferred within the period remaining prior to the transfer of the assets. Should such dispute remain unresolved upon the asset transfer date, the assets shall be transferred in accordance with the schedule provided by Cadbury. Any assets that are liquidated prior to transfer shall be reduced by the asset liquidation expenses actually incurred.

ARTICLE 6

U.S. 401(K) PLAN

Section 6.01 General Principle. Effective on or before the Distribution Date, DPSG shall establish and adopt a qualified employee cash or deferred arrangement under IRS Code Section 401(k) (the “DPSG 401(k) Plan”) intended to be qualified under IRS Code Section 401(a) and containing provisions that will provide benefits for each DPSG Business

Employee and Former DPSG Employee (and each beneficiary and alternate payee of such person) (the “DPSG DC Plan Beneficiaries”) identical to those in effect for the DPSG DC Plan Beneficiaries as of the date of transfer of assets and liabilities with respect to such plan (as described below). Before or as soon as reasonably practicable after the Distribution Date, the assets and liabilities relating to the DPSG DC Plan Beneficiaries under the Cadbury 401(k) Plan and shall be transferred to the DPSG 401(k) Plan.

The transfer shall be an in-kind transfer, subject to the reasonable consent of the trustee of the DPSG 401(k) Plan and shall include the transfer of the aggregate assets held in the accounts relating to each DPSG DC Plan Beneficiary under the Cadbury 401(k) Plan and any participant loan notes held under such plans. Any assets that are liquidated prior to transfer shall be reduced by the asset liquidation expenses, such as commissions or early withdrawal penalties, actually incurred. Cadbury shall cause the DPSG 401(k) Plan to allocate the portion of any forfeiture account under the Cadbury 401(k) Plan that relates to forfeiture by Former DPSG Employees consistent with Cadbury’s past practice regarding allocation of forfeitures under the Cadbury 401(k) Plan. Before or promptly after the date hereof, Cadbury and DPSG shall file requests with the IRS for qualification determination letters under IRS Code Section 401(a) and 401(k) (as applicable) with respect to the Cadbury 401(k) Plan and DPSG 401(k) Plan and shall take any and all reasonable actions, including the adoption of amendments requested by the IRS, as shall be necessary to obtain such determination letters. The transfers under this Section 6.02 shall occur prior to, but subject to the subsequent receipt of favorable determination letters issued by the IRS with respect to the Cadbury 401(k) Plan and DPSG 401(k) Plan, copies of which shall be shared among Cadbury and DPSG promptly upon issuance.

Section 6.03 Funding of 2008 Matching Contribution. DPSG shall fund and allocate the full amount of any 2008 matching contribution accrued under the terms of the Cadbury 401(k) Plan to eligible DPSG DC Plan Beneficiaries under the DPSG 401(k) Plan within the time permitted by law (determined based on the terms of the Cadbury 401(k) Plan immediately prior to the transfer to the DPSG 401(k) Plan as if the transfer to the DPSG 401(k) Plan did not occur, but paid and contributed by DPSG to the DPSG 401(k) Plan).

Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, as of and after the Distribution Date, DPSG shall assume, and be solely liable for, the handling, administration, investigation and defense of actions, including, without limitation, ERISA, occupational safety and health, employment standards, union grievances, wrongful dismissal, discrimination or human rights and unemployment compensation claims, asserted at any time against Cadbury, or DPSG or their respective Affiliates by any DPSG Business Employee or Former DPSG Employee (including any dependent or beneficiary of any such Employee) or any other person, to the extent such actions or claims arise out of or relate to employment or the provision of services (whether as an employee, contractor, consultant, or otherwise) to or with the DPSG Business. To the extent that any legal action relates to a putative or certified class of plaintiffs, which includes both Cadbury Business Employees (or Former Cadbury Employees) and DPSG Business Employees (or Former DPSG Employees) and such action involves employment or benefit plan related claims, reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the Parties in responding to such legal action shall be allocated among the Parties equitably in proportion to a reasonable assessment of the relative proportion of Cadbury Business Employees (or Former Cadbury Employees) and DPSG Business Employees (or Former DPSG Employees) included in or represented by the putative or certified plaintiff class.

All liabilities retained, assumed or indemnified against by DPSG pursuant to this Agreement, and all liabilities retained, assumed or indemnified against by Cadbury pursuant to this Agreement, shall in each case be subject to the indemnification provisions of the Separation Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no provision of this Agreement shall require DPSG or any DPSG Subsidiary to pay or reimburse to Cadbury or any Cadbury Affiliate any benefit-related cost item that DPSG or any DPSG Subsidiary has previously paid or reimbursed to Cadbury or any Cadbury Affiliate.

Section 12.05 Costs of Compliance with Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or any other Distribution document, each Party shall pay its own expenses in fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement.

This Agreement shall become effective when each party hereto shall have received a counterpart hereof signed by the other party hereto. Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof is intended to confer any rights, benefits, remedies, obligations, or liabilities hereunder upon any

Person other than the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No Employee or other current or former employee of Cadbury or DPSG or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of either (or his/her spouse, dependent or beneficiary), or any other person not a party to this Agreement, shall be entitled to assert any claim hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, the provisions of this Agreement are not intended to, nor shall they confer upon any Person other than the Parties hereto any right or expectation as to the adoption, amendment, maintenance, continuation, operation or funding of any employee benefit plan, policy or arrangement.

Section 13.06 Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the other Distribution documents constitute the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings and negotiations, both written and oral, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof. Regardless of anything else contained herein, the parties do not intend for this Agreement to amend any employee benefit plans or arrangements.

Section 13.07 Jurisdiction. Any Action seeking to enforce any provision of, or based on any matter arising out of or in connection with, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby may be brought in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York or any other New York State court sitting in New York County, and each of the Parties hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding which is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. Process in any such suit, action or proceeding may be served on any Party anywhere in the world, whether within or without the jurisdiction of any such court. Without limiting the foregoing, each Party agrees that service of process on such Party as provided in Section 13.01 shall be deemed effective service of process on such Party.

If any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement should be declared invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained in this Agreement shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby so long as the economic or legal substance of the transactions contemplated hereby is not affected in any manner materially adverse to any Party. Upon such a declaration, the Parties shall modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the Parties as closely as possible in an acceptable manner so that the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

Section 13.10 Survival. All covenants and agreements of the Parties contained in this Agreement shall survive the Distribution Date indefinitely, unless a specific survival or other applicable period is expressly set forth herein.

Section 13.11 Captions. The captions herein are included for convenience of reference only and shall be ignored in the construction or interpretation hereof.

Section 13.12 Specific Performance. Each Party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that damages for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement would be inadequate and irreparable harm would occur. In recognition of this fact, each Party agrees that, if there is a breach or threatened breach, in addition to any damages, the other nonbreaching Party to this Agreement, without posting any bond, shall be entitled to seek and obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction, attachment, or any other equitable remedy which may then be available to obligate the breaching Party (i) to perform its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) if the breaching Party is unable, for whatever reason, to perform those obligations, to take any other actions as are necessary, advisable or appropriate to give the other Party to this Agreement the economic effect which comes as close as possible to the performance of those obligations (including, but not limited to, transferring, or granting liens on, the assets of the breaching Party to secure the performance by the breaching Party of those obligations).

Section 13.13 Mutual Drafting. This Agreement shall be deemed to be the joint work product of Cadbury and DPSG and any rule of construction that a document shall be interpreted or construed against a drafter of such document shall not be applicable.

Section 13.14 Operating Committee.

(a) The parties shall use an operating committee (the “Operating Committee”) to implement the terms of this Agreement. Each of Cadbury and DPSG shall appoint two employees to the Operating Committee and designate one of such employees to be such party’s lead representative (each, a “Lead Representative”) for the purpose of fielding queries from representatives of the relevant Group concerning the implementation and ongoing operation of this Agreement. In addition, the Lead Representatives shall have such other functions and responsibilities as may be determined by the Operating Committee from time to time. The Operating Committee will oversee the implementation and ongoing operation of this Agreement and shall attempt in good faith to resolve disputes between the parties. Each of the parties shall have the right to (i) replace one or more of its Operating Committee members at any time with employees or officers with comparable knowledge, expertise and decision-making authority and (ii) designate an alternative Lead Representative.

(b) The Operating Committee shall act by a majority vote of its members. If the Operating Committee fails to make a decision, resolve a dispute or agree upon any necessary action, the unresolved matters shall be handled by the dispute resolution procedures contained in the Separation Agreement.

(c) During the term of this Agreement, the full Operating Committee shall meet at such times as may be required by either Lead Representative. Meetings of the Operating Committee may be in person or via teleconference and shall be convened and held in accordance with such procedures as the Operating Committee may determine from time to time.

Section 13.15 Effect if Distribution Does Not Occur. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Separation Agreement or Transition Services Agreement is terminated prior to the Distribution Date, this Agreement shall be of no further force and effect.

Section 13.16 Corporate Authorization. The officers of Cadbury and DPSG are hereby authorized, empowered and directed, in the name and on behalf of each of Cadbury and DPSG, respectively, to take or cause to be taken all such further action, to execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered all such further agreements, certificates, instruments and documents, to make or cause to be made all such filings with governmental or regulatory authorities, and to pay or cause to be paid all such fees and expenses, in each case which shall in such officers’ judgment be deemed necessary, proper or advisable to effect and carry out the intent of this Agreement, such determination to be evidenced conclusively by such officers’ execution and delivery thereof or taking of action in respect thereto.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties have caused this Agreement to be executed in their names by a duly authorized officer as of the date first written above.
