WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Company, the Guarantors, and the Trustee are parties to an Indenture, dated as of May 15, 1999 (as amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified, the “Indenture”), pursuant to which an aggregate principal amount of $200,000,000 of the Company’s 7 7/8% Notes due 2009 (the “Notes”) remain outstanding; and

     WHEREAS, the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of July 30, 2004, among the Company, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and the various lending institutions named on the signature pages thereof (the “Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”), has been replaced by that certain Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 31, 2006, among Reynolds American, Inc. (“RAI”), JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, and the various lending institutions named on the signature pages thereof (the “Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”); and

     WHEREAS, the Company and the Guarantors have determined that it is desirable to confirm and agree that (i) for purposes of the Indenture, the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement constitutes a refinancing and replacement of the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement and thus should be encompassed by the definition of Bank Credit Agreement in the Indenture, and (ii) RAI, which is the borrower under the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement rather than a guarantor, shall not as a result of its new status be released as a Guarantor under the Indenture; and

     WHEREAS, pursuant to Section IX.1 of the Indenture, the Company, the Guarantors, and the Trustee are authorized or permitted to execute and deliver this Fifth Supplemental Indenture to amend the Indenture, without the consent of any Noteholder;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto mutually covenant and agree for the equal and ratable benefit of the holders of the Notes as follows:
