LORILLARD, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

          Overview.Lorillard, Inc., through its subsidiaries, is engaged in the manufacture and sale of cigarettes. Its principal products are marketed under the brand names of Newport, Kent, True, Maverick and Old Gold with substantially all of its sales in the United States of America.

          The consolidated condensed financial statements of Lorillard, Inc. (the “Company”), together with its subsidiaries (“Lorillard”), include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries after the elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. The Company manages its operations on the basis of one reportable segment through its principal subsidiary, Lorillard Tobacco Company (“Lorillard Tobacco”).

          The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008 and the unaudited consolidated condensed statements of income, shareholders’ equity and changes in cash flows for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

          Results of operations for the three months and six months for each of the years reported herein are not necessarily indicative of results of operations of the entire year.

          These consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 2, 2009 and, as amended, in the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the SEC on June 11, 2009.

          On May 7, 2008, the Company amended its certificate of incorporation to affect a 1,739,234.29 for 1 stock split of its 100 shares of common stock then outstanding. All common share and per share information has been retroactively adjusted for the periods presented.

          On June 10, 2008, Loews Corporation (“Loews”) distributed 108,478,429 shares of common stock of the Company in exchange for and in redemption of all 108,478,429 outstanding shares of Loews’ Carolina Group stock, as described in the Registration Statement (File No. 333-149051) on Form S-4 filed with the SEC under the Securities act of 1933, as amended (the “Separation”). Pursuant to the terms of the Exchange Offer, described in the Registration Statement, on June 16, 2008, Loews accepted 93,492,857 shares of Loews common stock in exchange for 65,445,000 shares of the Company’s common stock. As a result of such distributions, Loews ceased to own any equity interest in the Company and the Company became an independent publicly held company.

          Prior to the Separation, Lorillard was included in the Loews consolidated federal income tax return, and federal income tax liabilities were included on the balance sheet of Loews. Under the terms of the pre-Separation Tax Allocation Agreement between Lorillard and Loews, the Company made payments to, or was reimbursed by, Loews for the tax effects resulting from its inclusion in Loews’ consolidated federal income tax return. As of June 30, 2009, Loews is obligated to reimburse Lorillard $14 million related to pre-Separation tax benefits and payments, which is expected to be reimbursed by December 2009.

          Recently adopted accounting pronouncements.Lorillard adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements,” on January 1, 2008, utilizing the one year deferral that was granted for the implementation of SFAS No. 157 for all nonrecurring fair value measurements of non-financial assets and liabilities. The one year deferral expired on January 1, 2009. SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. The adoption of SFAS No. 157 did not have a material impact on Lorillard’s financial position or results of operations.

-5-

          In May 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 162, “The Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” SFAS No. 162 identifies the sources of accounting principles and the framework for selecting the principles to be used in the preparation of financial statements of nongovernmental entities that are presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. SFAS No. 162 is effective 60 days following the SEC’s approval of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board amendments to AU Section 411, “The Meaning of Present Fairly in Conformity with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles.” The effective date for SFAS No. 162 was November 15, 2008. The adoption of SFAS No. 162 did not have a material impact on Lorillard’s financial position or results of operations.

          In June 2008, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position (“FSP”) Emerging Issues Task Force (“EITF”) Issue No. 03-6-1, “Determining Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are Participating Securities,” which addresses whether instruments granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior to vesting and, therefore, need to be included in the earnings allocation in computing earnings per share. This interpretation is effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008 and interim periods within those years. Lorillard adopted this interpretation on January 1, 2009. The adoption of EITF No. 03-6-1 did not have a material impact on Lorillard’s financial position or results of operations.

          In October 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-3, “Determining the Fair Value of a Financial Asset When the Market for that Asset is Not Active,” which clarifies the application of SFAS No. 157 (described above) in a market that is not active. The effective date for FSP FAS 157-3 was October 10, 2008. The adoption of FSP FAS 157-3 did not have a material impact on Lorillard’s financial position or results of operations.

          In December 2007, the FASB ratified EITF Issue No. 07-1, “Accounting for Collaborative Arrangements” effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2008. EITF No. 07-1 defines a collaborative arrangement as an arrangement where the parties are active participants and have exposure to significant risks. Transactions with third parties should be classified in the financial statements in the appropriate category according to EITF No. 99-19, “Reporting Revenue Gross as a Principal versus Net as an Agent.” Payments between the partners of the collaborative agreement should be categorized based on the terms of the agreement, business operations, and authoritative literature. Lorillard adopted this interpretation on January 1, 2009. The adoption of EITF No. 07-1 did not have a material impact on Lorillard’s financial position or results of operations.

          In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 107-1 and APB 28-1, “Interim Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments” which requires interim disclosures on the fair value of financial instruments. The effective date is for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of FSP FAS 107-1 did not have a material impact on Lorillard’s financial position or results of operations.

          In April 2009, the FASB issued FSP FAS 157-4, “Determining Fair Value When the Volume and Level of Activity for the Asset or Liability Have Significantly Decreased and Identifying Transactions That Are Not Orderly,” which includes factors for evaluating if a market has a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity. If there has been a decrease, then the entity must do further analysis of the transactions or quoted prices to determine if the transactions were orderly. The entity cannot ignore available information and should apply appropriate risk adjustments in the fair value calculation. The effective date is for interim periods ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of FSP FAS 157-4 did not have a material impact on Lorillard’s financial position or results of operations.

          In May 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 165, “Subsequent Events”, which sets forth (1) the period after the balance sheet date during which management of a reporting entity shall evaluate events or transactions that may occur for potential recognition or disclosure in the financial statements, (2) the circumstances under which an entity shall recognize events or transactions occurring after the balance sheet date in its financial statements and (3) the disclosures that an entity shall make about events or transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date. SFAS No. 165 applies to the accounting for and disclosure of subsequent events not addressed in other applicable generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). SFAS No. 165 is effective for financial statements issued for interim periods and fiscal years ending after June 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 165 did not have a material impact on Lorillard’s financial position or results of operations. Lorillard has evaluated subsequent events through July 30, 2009, the date the consolidated condensed financial statements were issued.

-6-

          Accounting pronouncements not yet adopted. In December 2008, the FASB issued FSP FAS 132(R)-1, “Employers’ Disclosures About Postretirement Benefit Plan Assets,” effective for years ending after December 15, 2009 with early application permitted. FSP FAS 132(R)-1 requires disclosure of investment policies and strategies in narrative form. FSP FAS 132(R)-1 also requires employer disclosure on the fair value of plan assets, including (a) the level in the fair value hierarchy, (b) a reconciliation of beginning and ending fair value balances for Level 3 assets, and (c) information on inputs and valuation techniques.

          In July 2009, the FASB issued SFAS No. 168, “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and the Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles,” a replacement of FASB Statement No. 162. The Codification is the sole source of authoritative GAAP for nongovernmental entities, and includes applicable SEC rules as sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The effective date is for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The adoption of SFAS No. 168 is not expected to have a material impact on Lorillard’s financial position or results of operations.

2. Inventories

          Inventories are valued at the lower of cost, determined on a last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) basis, or market and consisted of the following:

	June 30,		December 31,
	2009		2008
	(In millions)
Leaf tobacco	$	242	$	208
Manufactured stock		78		42
Material and supplies		6		5
	$	326	$	255

          If the average cost method of accounting was used, inventories would be greater by approximately $174 and $155 million at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively.

3. Plant and Equipment

          Plant and equipment is stated at cost and consisted of the following:

Excise and other taxes		149		56
Other accrued liabilities		63		45
Total	$	386	$	255

6. Fair Value

          Fair value is the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The following fair value hierarchy is used in selecting inputs, with the highest priority given to Level 1, as these are the most transparent or reliable:

• Level 1 — Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

• Level 2 — Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model-derived valuations in which all significant inputs are observable directly or indirectly.

• Level 3 — Valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs are unobservable.

          Lorillard is responsible for the valuation process and as part of this process may use data from outside sources in establishing fair value. Lorillard performs due diligence to understand the inputs used or how the data was calculated or derived, and corroborates the reasonableness of external inputs in the valuation process.

          Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis are summarized below. The valuation of securities that are actively traded or have quoted prices are classified as Level 1. These securities include money market funds and were valued as follows at June 30, 2009:

	Level 1		Level 2		Level 3		Total
			(In millions)
Cash and Cash Equivalents:
Treasury money market funds	$	17	$	¾	$	¾	$	17

Long Term Debt:
Senior notes	$	778	$	¾	$	¾	$	778
Total long term debt	$	778	$	¾	$	¾	$	778

7. Long Term Debt

          In June 2009, Lorillard Tobacco issued $750 million of 8.125% unsecured senior notes due June 23, 2019 (the “Notes”) pursuant to an Indenture, dated June 23, 2009, and First Supplemental Indenture, dated June 23, 2009

-8-

(the “Supplemental Indenture”). Lorillard Tobacco is the principal, wholly-owned operating subsidiary of the Company and the Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company. The interest rate payable on the Notes is subject to incremental increases from 0.25% to 2.00% in the event either Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or both Moody’s and S&P downgrade the Notes below investment grade (Baa3 and BBB- for Moody’s and S&P, respectively).

          Upon the occurrence of a change of control triggering event, Lorillard Tobacco will be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued interest. A “change of control triggering event” occurs when there is both a “change of control” (as defined in the Supplemental Indenture) and the Notes cease to be rated investment grade by both Moody’s and S&P within 60 days of the occurrence of a change of control or public announcement of the intention to effect a change of control. The Notes are not entitled to any sinking fund and are not redeemable prior to maturity. The Notes contain covenants that restrict liens and sale and leaseback transactions, subject to a limited exception. At June 30, 2009, the carrying value of the Notes was $750 million and the fair value was $778 million. The fair value of the Notes was based on market pricing. The net proceeds from the Notes will be used for general corporate purposes that may include, among other things, the repurchase, redemption or retirement of securities including our common stock, additions to working capital and capital expenditures.

8. Consolidating Financial Information

          In June 2009, Lorillard Tobacco issued Notes (see Note 7 for description of the Notes), which are unconditionally guaranteed by the Company, as primary obligor, for the payment and performance of Lorillard Tobacco’s obligation in connection therewith.

          The following sets forth the condensed consolidating balance sheets as of June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, condensed consolidating statements of income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, and condensed consolidating statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008 for the Company as parent guarantor (herein referred to as “Parent”), Lorillard Tobacco (herein referred to as “Issuer”) and all other non-guarantor subsidiaries of the Company and Lorillard Tobacco. These condensed consolidating financial statements were prepared in accordance with Rule 3-10 of SEC Regulation S-X, “Financial Statements of Guarantors and Issuers of Guaranteed Securities Registered or Being Registered.” Lorillard accounts for investments in these subsidiaries under the equity method of accounting.

9. Earnings Per Share

          Basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) were calculated using the following:

	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	June 30,				June 30,
	2009		2008		2009		2008
			(In millions)
Net Income	$	286	$	217	$	470	$	391
Weighted Average Shares Outstanding — Basic		167.66		173.92		167.87		173.92

Weighted Average Shares Outstanding — Diluted		167.79		173.92		167.98		173.92

          Options to purchase 0.8 million shares of common stock were excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would be anti-dilutive for the quarter ended June 30, 2009.

          Loews distributed its interest in the Company to holders of Loews’ Carolina Group stock and Loews’ common stock in a series of transactions which were completed on June 10, 2008 and June 16, 2008, respectively. The Company had 173,923,429 shares outstanding as of the Separation from Loews. All prior period EPS amounts have been adjusted to reflect the new capital structure of the Company.

11. Share Repurchase Program

     On May 21, 2009, Lorillard, Inc. announced that its Board of Directors had approved a share repurchase program, authorizing the Company to repurchase in the aggregate up to $250 million of its outstanding common stock. Purchases by the Company under this program may be made from time to time at prevailing market prices in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block purchases or otherwise, as determined by the Company’s management. The repurchases will be funded from existing cash balances.

     This program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock. The timing, frequency and amount of repurchase activity will depend on a variety of factors such as levels of cash generation from operations, cash requirements for investment in the Company’s business, current stock price, market conditions and other factors. The share repurchase program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time and has no set expiration date. During the second quarter, the Company repurchased approximately 2.2 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $67.67 per share, for a total of $146 million. This share repurchase program follows on the prior authorization by the Board on July 9, 2008 to repurchase in the aggregate up to $400 million of its outstanding common stock, which was completed on October 10, 2008. See Note 13 for additional information regarding the Company’s share repurchase programs.

12. Legal Proceedings

Tobacco-Related Product Liability Litigation

          As of July 27, 2009, approximately 6,875 product liability cases are pending against cigarette manufacturers in the United States. Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in approximately 5,925 of these cases. Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant in approximately 710 cases. Approximately 3,200 of these lawsuits areEngleProgeny Cases, described below, in which the claims of approximately 8,625 individual plaintiffs are asserted.

          The pending product liability cases are composed of the following types of cases:

          Conventional Product Liability Cases. Conventional Product Liability Cases are brought by individuals who allege cancer or other health effects caused by smoking cigarettes, by using smokeless tobacco products, by addiction to tobacco, or by exposure to environmental tobacco smoke. As of July 27, 2009, approximately 155 cases are pending against cigarette manufacturers, including approximately 35 cases against Lorillard Tobacco. Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant in four cases.

          Engle Progeny Cases.EngleProgeny Cases are brought by individuals who purport to be members of the decertifiedEngleclass. These cases are pending in a number of Florida courts. Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in approximately 3,200EngleProgeny Cases. Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant in approximately 700 cases. Many of the cases have been filed on behalf of multiple class members, and approximately 8,625 individual smokers are asserting claims in the pending cases.

          West Virginia Individual Personal Injury Cases. West Virginia Individual Personal Injury Cases are brought by individuals who allege cancer or other health effects caused by smoking cigarettes, by using smokeless tobacco products, or by addiction to cigarette smoking. The cases are pending in a single West Virginia court and have been consolidated for trial. Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in approximately 55 of the 730 pending cases that are part of this proceeding. Lorillard, Inc. is not a defendant in any of these cases.

          Flight Attendant Cases. Flight Attendant Cases are brought by non-smoking flight attendants alleging injury from exposure to environmental smoke in the cabins of aircraft. Plaintiffs in these cases may not seek punitive damages for injuries that arose prior to January 15, 1997. Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in each of the approximately 2,625 pending Flight Attendant Cases. Lorillard, Inc. is not a defendant in any of these cases. The time for filing Flight Attendant Cases expired during 2000 and no additional cases in this category may be filed.

          Class Action Cases. Class Action Cases are purported to be brought on behalf of large numbers of individuals for damages allegedly caused by smoking. Nine of these cases are pending against Lorillard Tobacco. Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant in two of these nine cases. Two of the nine cases assert claims on behalf of purchasers of “light” cigarettes. Lorillard, Inc. is not a defendant in either of these cases. Neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. is a defendant in the approximately 30 additional “lights” class actions that are pending against other cigarette manufacturers.

-17-

          Reimbursement Cases. Reimbursement Cases are brought by or on behalf of entities who seek reimbursement of expenses incurred in providing health care to individuals who allegedly were injured by smoking. Plaintiffs in these cases have included the U.S. federal government, U.S. state and local governments, foreign governmental entities, hospitals or hospital districts, American Indian tribes, labor unions, private companies and private citizens. Four such cases are pending against Lorillard Tobacco and other cigarette manufacturers in the United States and one such case is pending in Israel. Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant in two of the cases pending in the United States. Plaintiffs in the case in Israel have attempted to assert claims against Lorillard, Inc.

          Included in this category is the suit filed by the federal government,United States of America v. Philip Morris USA,Inc.,et al., that sought return of profits and injunctive relief. In August 2006, the trial court issued its verdict and granted injunctive relief. The verdict did not award monetary damages. During May 2009, the verdict was largely affirmed by an appellate court. See “—Reimbursement Cases” below.

          Filter Cases. In addition to the above, Filter Cases are brought by individuals, including former employees of Lorillard Tobacco, who seek damages resulting from their alleged exposure to asbestos fibers that were incorporated into filter material used in one brand of cigarettes manufactured by Lorillard Tobacco for a limited period of time ending more than 50 years ago. Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in 33 such cases, including two cases in which Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant. Lorillard, Inc. is also a defendant in an additional Filter Case, in which Lorillard Tobacco is not a defendant.

          In addition, Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc. are named as defendants in one case in which it is alleged that a fire caused by a Lorillard cigarette led to an individual’s death.

          Plaintiffs assert a broad range of legal theories in these cases, including, among others, theories of negligence, fraud, misrepresentation, strict liability, breach of warranty, enterprise liability (including claims asserted under the federal Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”)), civil conspiracy, intentional infliction of harm, injunctive relief, indemnity, restitution, unjust enrichment, public nuisance, claims based on antitrust laws and state consumer protection acts, and claims based on failure to warn of the harmful or addictive nature of tobacco products.

          Plaintiffs in most of the cases seek unspecified amounts of compensatory damages and punitive damages, although some seek damages ranging into the billions of dollars. Plaintiffs in some of the cases seek treble damages, statutory damages, disgorgement of profits, equitable and injunctive relief, and medical monitoring, among other damages.

          Conventional Product Liability Cases

          As of July 2009, approximately 155 cases are pending against cigarette manufacturers in the United States. Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in approximately 35 of these cases. Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant in four of the pending cases.

          Since January 1, 2007, verdicts have been returned in three cases. Neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. was a defendant in any of these trials. A defense verdict was returned in one of the trials, and a jury found in favor of the plaintiffs and awarded damages in the other two trials. The defendants in the latter cases are pursuing appeals. In rulings addressing cases tried in earlier years, some appellate courts have reversed verdicts returned in favor of the plaintiffs while other judgments that awarded damages to smokers have been affirmed on appeal. Manufacturers have exhausted their appeals and have been required to pay damages to plaintiffs in ten individual cases in recent years. Punitive damages were paid to the smokers in four of the ten cases. Neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. was a party to these ten matters.

          As of July 27, 2009, trial was underway in two Conventional Product Liability Cases. Neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. is a defendant in these cases. Some of the cases pending against cigarette manufacturers are scheduled for trial in 2009. Neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. is a defendant in those cases. Trial dates are subject to change.

          Engle Progeny Cases

          Plaintiffs are individuals who allege they or their decedents are former members ofEngle, a class action case that was pending in Florida. The 2006 ruling by the Florida Supreme Court that ordered decertification of theEngleclass also permitted former class members to file individual actions, including claims for punitive damages. The court further held that these individuals are entitled to rely on a number of the jury’s findings in favor of the plaintiffs in the first phase of theEngletrial. The time period for filingEngleProgeny Cases expired in January 2008 and no additional cases may be filed. During 2009, the Florida Supreme Court rejected a petition that sought to extend the time for purported class members to file an additional lawsuit.

          Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in approximately 3,200 cases filed by individuals who allege they or their decedents were members of theEngleclass. Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant in approximately 700 of the pending cases. Some of the suits are on behalf of multiple plaintiffs. Claims have been asserted by or on behalf of the estates of approximately 8,625 former class members in these 3,200 cases. In some cases, spouses of alleged former class members have also brought derivative claims.

          TheEngleProgeny Cases are pending in various Florida state and federal courts. Some of these courts have issued rulings that address whether these individuals are entitled to rely on a number of the jury’s findings in favor of the plaintiffs in the first phase of theEngletrial. Some of these decisions have led to pending petitions for appeal. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit agreed to review trial court rulings determining how courts should apply the Florida Supreme Court’s ruling regarding theEnglejury’s first phase verdict.

          Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in severalEngleProgeny Cases that have been placed on courts’ 2009 trial calendars or in which specific 2009 trial dates have been set. Lorillard, Inc. is a defendant in some of these cases. Trial schedules are subject to change and it is not possible to predict how many of the cases pending against Lorillard Tobacco or Lorillard, Inc. will be tried during 2009. It also is not possible to predict whether some courts will implement procedures that consolidate multipleEngleProgeny Cases for trial.

          As of July 27, 2009, trial was underway in twoEngleProgeny Cases. Neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. is a defendant in these cases.

          Verdicts have been returned in sevenEngleProgeny Cases since the Florida Supreme Court issued its 2006 ruling that permitted members of theEngleclass to bring individual lawsuits. Neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. was a defendant in these seven trials. In two of the seven trials, juries awarded actual damages and punitive damages. The punitive damages awards were $5 million in one of the cases and $25 million in the other. In two other trials, juries awarded only actual damages. In the three other trials, juries found in favor of the defendants that the plaintiffs were not formerEngleclass members. As of July 27, 2009, appeals were on file in four of the cases, while the defendant’s post-trial motion had not been ruled on in the fifth case. In the two remaining cases, plaintiffs chose not to appeal the verdicts for the defendants.

          In a case tried prior to the Florida Supreme Court’s 2006 decision permitting members of theEngleclass to bring individual lawsuits, one Florida court allowed the plaintiff to rely at trial on certain of theEnglejury’s findings. That trial resulted in a verdict for the plaintiffs in which they were awarded approximately $25 million in actual damages. Neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. was a party to this case. The defendants in this case are pursuing an appeal of the judgment, which was not entered until 2008.

          In June 2009, Florida amended the security requirements for a stay of execution of any judgment during the pendency of appeal inEngleProgeny Cases. The amended statute provides for the amount of security for individualEngleProgeny Cases to vary within prescribed limits based on the number of adverse judgments that are pending on appeal at a given time. The required security decreases as the number of appeals increases to ensure that the total security posted or deposited does not exceed $200 million in the aggregate. This amended statute applies to all judgments entered on or after June 16, 2009 and expires on December 31, 2012.

          West Virginia Individual Personal Injury Cases

          The proceeding known as “West Virginia Individual Personal Injury Cases” consolidates for trial in a single West Virginia court a number of cases that have been filed against cigarette manufacturers, including Lorillard Tobacco. The order that consolidated the cases, among other things, permitted only those cases filed by September 2000 to participate in the consolidated trial. As a result, no additional cases may be part of this proceeding.

          Approximately 1,250 cases became part of this proceeding, and Lorillard Tobacco was named in all but a few of them. Lorillard, Inc. is not a defendant in any of these cases. More than 500 of the cases have been dismissed in their entirety. Lorillard Tobacco has been dismissed from approximately 650 additional cases because those plaintiffs did not submit evidence that they had smoked a Lorillard Tobacco product. These 650 additional cases remain pending against other cigarette manufacturers and some or all the dismissals of Lorillard Tobacco could be contested in subsequent appeals noticed by the plaintiffs.

          Approximately 730 cases are pending. Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in approximately 55 of the pending cases. The court has entered a trial plan that calls for a multi-phase trial. The first phase of trial is scheduled to begin on February 1, 2010. Trial dates are subject to change.

          Flight Attendant Cases

          Approximately 2,625 Flight Attendant Cases are pending. Lorillard Tobacco and three other cigarette manufacturers are the defendants in each of these matters. Lorillard, Inc. is not a defendant in any of these cases. These suits were filed as a result of a settlement agreement by the parties, including Lorillard Tobacco, inBroin v. Philip Morris Companies,Inc.,et al. (Circuit Court, Miami-Dade County, Florida, filed October 31, 1991), a class action brought on behalf of flight attendants claiming injury as a result of exposure to environmental tobacco smoke. The settlement agreement, among other things, permitted the plaintiff class members to file these individual suits. These individuals may not seek punitive damages for injuries that arose prior to January 15, 1997. The period for filing Flight Attendant Cases expired during 2000 and no additional cases in this category may be filed.

          The judges that have presided over the cases that have been tried have relied upon an order entered during October 2000 by the Circuit Court of Miami-Dade County, Florida. The October 2000 order has been construed by these judges as holding that the flight attendants are not required to prove the substantive liability elements of their claims for negligence, strict liability and breach of implied warranty in order to recover damages. The court further ruled that the trials of these suits are to address whether the plaintiffs’ alleged injuries were caused by their exposure to environmental tobacco smoke and, if so, the amount of damages to be awarded.

          Lorillard Tobacco was a defendant in each of the eight flight attendant cases in which verdicts have been returned. Defendants have prevailed in seven of the eight trials. In one of the seven cases in which a defense verdict was returned, the court granted plaintiff’s motion for a new trial and, following appeal, the case has been returned to the trial court for a second trial. The six remaining cases in which defense verdicts were returned are concluded. In the single trial decided for the plaintiff,French v. Philip Morris Incorporated,et al., the jury awarded $5.5 million in damages. The court, however, reduced this award to $500,000. This verdict, as reduced by the trial court, was affirmed on appeal and the defendants have paid the award. Lorillard Tobacco’s share of the judgment in this matter, including interest, was approximately $60,000. In addition, Lorillard Tobacco has paid its share of the attorneys’ fees, costs and post-judgment interest awarded to the plaintiff’s counsel in this matter. During 2009, a Florida appellate court denied Lorillard Tobacco’s appeal from an order granting interest on an award of attorneys’ fees Lorillard Tobacco had previously paid. As a result of this ruling, Lorillard Tobacco was ordered to pay approximately $315,000. Pursuant to an agreement with the other defendants in this matter, Lorillard Tobacco paid approximately $28,000 and the other defendants paid the remainder.

          As of July 27, 2009, none of the flight attendant cases are scheduled for trial. Trial dates are subject to change.

          Class Action Cases

          Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in nine pending cases. Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant in two of these cases. In most of the pending cases, plaintiffs seek class certification on behalf of groups of cigarette smokers, or the estates of deceased cigarette smokers, who reside in the state in which the case was filed.

          Cigarette manufacturers, including Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc., have defeated motions for class certification in a total of 36 cases, 13 of which were in state court and 23 of which were in federal court. Motions for class certification have also been ruled upon in some of the “lights” cases or in other class actions to which neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. was a party. In some of these cases, courts have denied class certification to the plaintiffs, while classes have been certified in other matters.

-20-

          The Scott Case.In one of the class actions pending against Lorillard Tobacco,Scott v. The American Tobacco Company,et al.(District Court, Orleans Parish, Louisiana, filed May 24, 1996), the members of the class have been awarded damages. The defendants, including Lorillard Tobacco, have noticed an appeal from this award to the Louisiana Court of Appeal, Fourth Circuit, and argument has been scheduled for September 1, 2009. The appeal is from the amended final judgment entered by the District Court in July 2008 that ordered defendants to pay approximately $264 million to fund a court-supervised cessation program for the members of the certified class. The amended final judgment also awards post-judgment judicial interest that will continue to accrue from June 2004 until the judgment either is paid or is reversed on appeal. As of July 27, 2009, judicial interest totaled approximately $100 million. Lorillard, Inc., which was a party to the case in the past, is no longer a defendant inScott.

          During 1997,Scottwas certified a class action on behalf of certain cigarette smokers resident in the State of Louisiana who desire to participate in medical monitoring or smoking cessation programs and who began smoking prior to September 1, 1988, or who began smoking prior to May 24, 1996 and allege that defendants undermined compliance with the warnings on cigarette packages.

          Trial inScottwas heard in two phases. At the conclusion of the first phase in July 2003, the jury rejected medical monitoring, the primary relief requested by plaintiffs, and returned sufficient findings in favor of the class to proceed to a Phase II trial on plaintiffs’ request for a statewide smoking cessation program. Phase II of the trial, which concluded during May 2004, resulted in an award of $591 million to fund cessation programs for Louisiana smokers.

          In February 2007, the Louisiana Court of Appeal reduced the amount of the award by approximately $328 million; struck an award of prejudgment interest, which totaled approximately $440 million as of December 31, 2006; and limited class membership to individuals who began smoking by September 1, 1988, and whose claims accrued by September 1, 1988. In January 2008, the Louisiana Supreme Court denied plaintiffs’ and defendants’ separate petitions for review. The U.S. Supreme Court denied defendants’ request that it review the case in May 2008. The case was returned to the trial court, which subsequently entered the amended final judgment. The defendants, including Lorillard Tobacco, have appealed the amended final judgment.

          Should the amended final judgment be sustained on appeal, Lorillard Tobacco’s share of that judgment, including the award of post-judgment interest, has not been determined. In the fourth quarter of 2007, Lorillard, Inc. recorded a pretax provision of approximately $66 million for this matter which was included in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of income and in other liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets.

          The parties filed a stipulation in the trial court agreeing that an article of Louisiana law required that the amount of the bond for the appeal be set at $50 million for all defendants collectively. The parties further agreed that the plaintiffs have full reservations of rights to contest in the trial court the sufficiency of the bond on any grounds. Defendants collectively posted a surety bond in the amount of $50 million, of which Lorillard Tobacco secured 25%, or $12.5 million. While Lorillard Tobacco believes the limitation on the appeal bond amount is valid as required by Louisiana law, in the event of a successful challenge the amount of the appeal bond could be set as high as 150% of the judgment and judicial interest combined. If such an event occurred, Lorillard Tobacco’s share of the appeal bond has not been determined.

          The Engle Case.The case ofEngle v. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co.,et al.(Circuit Court, Miami-Dade County, Florida, filed May 5, 1994), was certified as a class action on behalf of Florida residents, and survivors of Florida residents, who were injured or died from medical conditions allegedly caused by addiction to smoking. During 1999 and 2000, a jury returned verdicts that, among other things, awarded the certified class $145 billion in punitive damages, including $16.3 billion against Lorillard Tobacco. During 2006, the Florida Supreme Court vacated the punitive damages award, determined that the case could not proceed further as a class action and ordered decertification of the class. The trial court entered orders during 2008 that formally decertified the class. During July 2008, plaintiff voluntarily dismissed the case andEngleis no longer pending.

-21-

          The Florida Supreme Court’s 2006 decision also reinstated awards of actual damages to two of the three individuals whose claims were heard during the second phase of theEngletrial. One individual was awarded $3 million and the second was awarded $4 million. Both individuals informed the court that they would not seek punitive damages. These verdicts were paid during February 2008. Lorillard Tobacco’s payment was approximately $3 million for the verdicts and the interest that accrued since November 2000.

          Other Class Action Cases. In one of the cases pending against Lorillard Tobacco,Brown v. The American Tobacco Company,Inc.,et al.(Superior Court, San Diego County, California, filed June 10, 1997), the court initially certified the case as a class action but it subsequently granted defendants’ motion for class decertification. During 2009, the California Supreme Court vacated the class decertification order. Should this ruling not be modified in response to defendants’ pending petition for reconsideration,Brownwill be returned to the trial court for further activity. While it is not possible to predict future activity inBrown, a new class certification order could be entered. The class previously certified inBrownwas composed of residents of California who smoked at least one of defendants’ cigarettes between June 10, 1993 and April 23, 2001 and who were exposed to defendants’ marketing and advertising activities in California.

          “Lights” Class Actions.Cigarette manufacturers are defendants in another group of approximately 30 cases in which plaintiffs’ claims are based on the allegedly fraudulent marketing of “light” or “ultra-light” cigarettes. Classes have been certified in some of these matters. In one of the pending “lights” cases,Good v. Altria Group,Inc.,et al., the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that neither the Federal Cigarette Labeling and Advertising Act nor the Federal Trade Commission’s regulation of cigarettes’ tar and nicotine disclosures preempts (or bars) some of plaintiffs’ claims. Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in one class action in which plaintiffs claims are limited to purchasers of “light” cigarettes,Schwab v. Philip Morris USA,Inc.,et al., which is discussed below. In another case,Cleary v. Philip Morris Incorporated, et al., plaintiffs were permitted to amend their complaint in an existing class action in order to assert claims on behalf of a subclass of individuals who purchased “light” cigarettes from the defendants, including Lorillard Tobacco. During 2009, the court dismissed the “light” cigarettes claims asserted against Lorillard Tobacco. As of July 27, 2009, the deadline for plaintiffs to appeal this ruling had not expired. Lorillard, Inc. is not a party to any of the purported “lights” class actions. A petition has been filed with the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation that proposes the transfer and consolidation of “lights” class actions in federal courts into a specially constituted court for pretrial proceedings. The eleven cases identified by the plaintiffs include theCleary andSchwabcases that are pending against Lorillard Tobacco. The Judicial Panel is scheduled to hear argument of this application on July 30, 2009.

          The Schwab Case.In the case ofSchwab v. Philip Morris USA,Inc.,et al.(U.S. District Court, Eastern District, New York, filed May 11, 2004), plaintiffs base their claims on defendants’ alleged violations of the RICO statute in the manufacture, marketing and sale of “light” cigarettes. Plaintiffs estimated damages to the class in the hundreds of billions of dollars. Any damages awarded to the plaintiffs based on defendants’ violation of the RICO statute would be trebled. In September 2006, the court granted plaintiffs’ motion for class certification and certified a nationwide class action on behalf of purchasers of “light” cigarettes. In March 2008, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals reversed the class certification order and ruled that the case may not proceed as a class action.Schwabhas been returned to the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of New York for further proceedings, but the future activity in this matter, if any, is not known. Lorillard, Inc. is not a party to this case.

          Reimbursement Cases

          Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in the four Reimbursement Cases that are pending in the U.S. and it has been named as a party to a case in Israel. Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant in two of the four cases pending in the U.S. Plaintiffs in the case in Israel have attempted to assert claims against Lorillard, Inc.

          U.S. Federal Government Action. In August 2006, the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia issued its final judgment and remedial order in the federal government’s reimbursement suit (United States of America v. Philip Morris USA,Inc.,et al., U.S. District Court, District of Columbia, filed September 22, 1999). The verdict concluded a bench trial that began in September 2004. Lorillard Tobacco, other cigarette manufacturers, two parent companies and two trade associations are defendants in this action. Lorillard, Inc. is not a party to this case.

          In its 2006 verdict, the court determined that the defendants, including Lorillard Tobacco, violated certain provisions of the RICO statute, that there was a likelihood of present and future RICO violations, and that equitable

-22-

relief was warranted. The government was not awarded monetary damages. The equitable relief included permanent injunctions that prohibit the defendants, including Lorillard Tobacco, from engaging in any act of racketeering, as defined under RICO; from making any material false or deceptive statements concerning cigarettes; from making any express or implied statement about health on cigarette packaging or promotional materials (these prohibitions include a ban on using such descriptors as “low tar,” “light,” “ultra-light,” “mild” or “natural”); and from making any statements that “low tar,” “light,” “ultra-light,” “mild” or “natural” or low-nicotine cigarettes may result in a reduced risk of disease. The final judgment and remedial order also requires the defendants, including Lorillard Tobacco, to make corrective statements on their websites, in certain media, in point-of-sale advertisements, and on cigarette package “inserts” concerning: the health effects of smoking; the addictiveness of smoking; that there are no significant health benefits to be gained by smoking “low tar,” “light,” “ultra-light,” “mild” or “natural” cigarettes; that cigarette design has been manipulated to ensure optimum nicotine delivery to smokers; and that there are adverse effects from exposure to secondhand smoke. If the final judgment and remedial order are not modified or vacated on appeal, the costs to Lorillard Tobacco for compliance could exceed $10 million.

          Following trial, the defendants, the government and several intervenors noticed appeals to the Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. In May 2009, a three judge panel upheld substantially all of the District Court’s final judgment and remedial order. The deadline for the parties or the intervenors to ask the Court of Appeals to reconsider its decision is July 31, 2009. Defendants received a stay of the judgment and remedial order from the Court of Appeals that remains in effect while the appeal is pending.

          While trial was underway, the Court of Appeals ruled that plaintiff may not seek to recover profits earned by the defendants. Prior to trial, the government had claimed that it was entitled to approximately $280 billion from the defendants for its claim to recover profits earned by the defendants. In the most recent appeal, recovery of profits was not considered but the issue may however be considered by the entire Court of Appeals or by the U.S. Supreme Court, should either party or one or more intervenors in the case seek to further appeal this decision.

          Settlement of State Reimbursement Litigation

          On November 23, 1998, Lorillard Tobacco, Philip Morris Incorporated, Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corporation and R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company (the “Original Participating Manufacturers”) entered into the Master Settlement Agreement (“MSA”) with 46 states, the District of Columbia, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, Guam, the U.S. Virgin Islands, American Samoa and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands to settle the asserted and unasserted health care cost recovery and certain other claims of those states. These settling entities are generally referred to as the “Settling States.” The Original Participating Manufacturers had previously settled similar claims brought by Mississippi, Florida, Texas and Minnesota, which together with the MSA are referred to as the “State Settlement Agreements.”

          The State Settlement Agreements provide that the agreements are not admissions, concessions or evidence of any liability or wrongdoing on the part of any party, and were entered into by the Original Participating Manufacturers to avoid the further expense, inconvenience, burden and uncertainty of litigation.

          Lorillard recorded pretax charges for its obligations under the State Settlement Agreements of $307 million and $554 million ($193 million and $347 million after taxes) for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2009, respectively, and $293 million and $550 million ($178 million and $340 million after taxes) for the three months and six months ended June 30, 2008, respectively. Lorillard’s portion of ongoing adjusted payments and legal fees is based on its share of domestic cigarette shipments in the year preceding that in which the payment is due. Accordingly, Lorillard records its portions of ongoing settlement payments as part of cost of manufactured products sold as the related sales occur.

          The State Settlement Agreements require that the domestic tobacco industry make annual payments of $9.4 billion, subject to adjustment for several factors, including inflation, market share and industry volume. In addition, the domestic tobacco industry is required to pay settling plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees, subject to an annual cap of $500 million, as well as an additional amount of up to $125 million in each year through 2008. These payment obligations are the several and not joint obligations of each settling defendant.

          The State Settlement Agreements also include provisions relating to significant advertising and marketing restrictions, public disclosure of certain industry documents, limitations on challenges to tobacco control and under-

-23-

age use laws, and other provisions. Lorillard Tobacco and the other Original Participating Manufacturers have notified the States that they intend to seek an adjustment in the amount of payments made in 2003 pursuant to a provision in the MSA that permits such adjustment if the companies can prove that the MSA was a significant factor in their loss of market share to companies not participating in the MSA and that the States failed to diligently enforce certain statutes passed in connection with the MSA. If the Original Participating Manufacturers are ultimately successful, any adjustment would be reflected as a credit against future payments by the Original Participating Manufacturers under the agreement.

          From time to time, lawsuits have been brought against Lorillard Tobacco and other participating manufacturers to the MSA, or against one or more of the states, challenging the validity of the MSA on certain grounds, including as a violation of the antitrust laws. See "—MSA-Related Antitrust Suit” below.

          In addition, in connection with the MSA, the Original Participating Manufacturers entered into an agreement to establish a $5.2 billion trust fund payable between 1999 and 2010 to compensate the tobacco growing communities in 14 states (the “Trust”). Payments to the Trust will no longer be required as a result of an assessment imposed under a new federal law repealing the federal supply management program for tobacco growers, although the states of Maryland and Pennsylvania are contending that payments under the Trust should continue to growers in those states since the new federal law did not cover them, and the matter is being litigated. Under the new law, enacted in October 2004, tobacco quota holders and growers will be compensated with payments totaling $10.1 billion, funded by an assessment on tobacco manufacturers and importers. Payments to qualifying tobacco quota holders and growers commenced in 2005.

          Lorillard believes that the State Settlement Agreements will materially adversely affect its cash flows and operating income in future years. The degree of the adverse impact will depend, among other things, on the rates of decline in domestic cigarette sales in the premium price and discount price segments, Lorillard’s share of the domestic premium price and discount price cigarette segments, and the effect of any resulting cost advantage of manufacturers not subject to significant payment obligations under the State Settlement Agreements.

          Filter Cases

          In addition to the above, claims have been brought against Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc. by individuals who seek damages resulting from their alleged exposure to asbestos fibers that were incorporated into filter material used in one brand of cigarettes manufactured by Lorillard Tobacco for a limited period of time ending more than 50 years ago. Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in 33 such cases. Lorillard, Inc. is a defendant in three Filter Cases, including two that also name Lorillard Tobacco. Since January 1, 2007, Lorillard Tobacco has paid, or has reached agreement to pay, a total of approximately $17.4 million in settlements to finally resolve approximately 75 claims. The related expense was recorded in selling, general and administrative expenses on the consolidated statements of income. In the only such case tried since January 1, 2007, a jury in the District Court of Bexar County, Texas, returned a verdict for Lorillard Tobacco during September 2008 in the case ofYoung v. Lorillard Tobacco Company. As of July 27, 2009, six of the Filter Cases were scheduled for trial. Trial dates are subject to change.

Tobacco-Related Antitrust Cases

          Indirect Purchaser Suits. Approximately 30 antitrust suits were filed in 2000 and 2001 on behalf of putative classes of consumers in various state courts against cigarette manufacturers, including Lorillard Tobacco. The suits all alleged that the defendants entered into agreements to fix the wholesale prices of cigarettes in violation of state antitrust laws which permit indirect purchasers, such as retailers and consumers, to sue under price fixing or consumer fraud statutes. More than 20 states permit such suits. Lorillard, Inc. was not named as a defendant in any of these cases. Lorillard Tobacco was a defendant in all but one of these indirect purchaser cases. Three indirect purchaser suits, in New York, Florida and Michigan, thereafter were dismissed by courts in those states, and the plaintiffs withdrew their appeals. The actions in all other states, except for New Mexico and Kansas, were voluntarily dismissed.

          In the Kansas case, the District Court of Seward County certified a class of Kansas indirect purchasers in 2002. In July 2006, the Court issued an order confirming that fact discovery was closed, with the exception of privilege issues that the Court determined, based on a Special Master’s report, justified further fact discovery. In October 2007, the Court denied all of the defendants’ privilege claims, and the Kansas Supreme Court thereafter denied a petition seeking to overturn that ruling. Discovery currently is ongoing. No date has been set by the Court for dispositive motions and trial.

-24-

          A decision granting class certification in New Mexico was affirmed by the New Mexico Court of Appeals in February 2005. As ordered by the trial court, class notice was sent out in October 2005. The New Mexico plaintiffs were permitted to rely on discovery produced in the Kansas case. In June 2006, the New Mexico trial court granted summary judgment to all defendants, and the suit was dismissed. An appeal was filed by the plaintiffs in August 2006. The New Mexico Court of Appeals affirmed dismissal of all claims against Lorillard Tobacco in December 2008, although claims against its major competitors were reinstated. Plaintiff has not sought to reinstate the claims against Lorillard Tobacco and the time for such action has expired. Accordingly, the New Mexico suit has now been concluded as against Lorillard Tobacco.

          MSA-Related Antitrust Suit.In October 2008, Lorillard Tobacco was named as a defendant in an action filed in the Western District of Kentucky,Vibo Corporation, Inc. d/b/a/ General Tobacco v. Conway, et al. The suit alleges that the named defendants, which include 52 state and territorial attorneys general and 19 tobacco manufacturers, violated the federal Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890 (the “Sherman Act”) by entering into and participating in the MSA. The plaintiff alleges that MSA participants, like it, that were not in existence when the MSA was executed in 1998 but subsequently became participants, are unlawfully required to pay significantly more sums to the states than companies that joined the MSA within 90 days after its execution. In addition to the Sherman Act claim, plaintiff has raised a number of constitutional claims against the states. Plaintiff seeks a declaratory judgment in its favor on all claims, an injunction against the continued enforcement of the MSA, treble damages against the tobacco manufacturer defendants, including Lorillard Tobacco and other manufacturer defendants, and damages and injunctive relief against the states, including contract recession and restitution. In December 2008, the court dismissed the complaint against all defendants, including Lorillard Tobacco. The court has not yet entered its final judgment. Accordingly, the time for plaintiff to appeal the decision has not yet expired.

Defenses

          Each of Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc. believes that it has valid defenses to the cases pending against it as well as valid bases for appeal should any adverse verdicts be returned against either of them. As of July 27, 2009, Lorillard Tobacco was a defendant in approximately 5,925 pending product liability cases, and Lorillard, Inc. was a co-defendant in approximately 710 of these cases. While Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc. intend to defend vigorously all tobacco products liability litigation, it is not possible to predict the outcome of any of this litigation. Litigation is subject to many uncertainties. Plaintiffs have prevailed in several cases, as noted above. It is possible that one or more of the pending actions could be decided unfavorably as to Lorillard Tobacco, Lorillard, Inc. or the other defendants. Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc. may enter into discussions in an attempt to settle particular cases if either believe it is appropriate to do so.

          Neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. can predict the outcome of pending litigation. Some plaintiffs have been awarded damages from cigarette manufacturers at trial. While some of these awards have been overturned or reduced, other damages awards have been paid after the manufacturers have exhausted their appeals. These awards and other litigation activities against cigarette manufacturers continue to receive media attention. In addition, health issues related to tobacco products also continue to receive media attention. It is possible, for example, that the 2006 verdict inUnited States of America v. Philip Morris USA,Inc.,et al., which made many adverse findings regarding the conduct of the defendants, including Lorillard Tobacco, could form the basis of allegations by other plaintiffs or additional judicial findings against cigarette manufacturers. In addition, the ruling inGood v. Altria Group, Inc.,et al.could result in further “lights” litigation. Any such developments could have an adverse effect on the ability of Lorillard Tobacco or Lorillard, Inc. to prevail in smoking and health litigation and could influence the filing of new suits against Lorillard Tobacco or Lorillard, Inc. Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc. also cannot predict the type or extent of litigation that could be brought against either of them, or against other cigarette manufacturers, in the future.

          Lorillard records provisions in the consolidated financial statements for pending litigation when it determines that an unfavorable outcome is probable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Except for the impact of the State Settlement Agreements andScottas described above, management is unable to make a meaningful estimate of the amount or range of loss that could result from an unfavorable outcome of material pending litigation and, therefore, no material provision has been made in the consolidated financial statements for any unfavorable

-25-

outcome. It is possible that Lorillard’s results of operations or cash flows in a particular quarterly or annual period or its financial position could be materially adversely affected by an unfavorable outcome or settlement of certain pending litigation.

Indemnification Obligations

          In connection with the Separation Lorillard entered into a separation agreement with Loews (the “Separation Agreement”) and agreed to indemnify Loews and its officers, directors, employees and agents against all costs and expenses arising out of third party claims (including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, interest, penalties and costs of investigation or preparation for defense), judgments, fines, losses, claims, damages, liabilities, taxes, demands, assessments and amounts paid in settlement based on, arising out of or resulting from, among other things, Loews’ ownership of or the operation of Lorillard and its assets and properties, and its operation or conduct of its businesses at any time prior to or following the Separation (including with respect to any product liability claims).

          Loews is a defendant in three pending product liability cases. One of these is a Reimbursement Case in Israel, while the two other cases are purported Class Action Cases on file in U.S. courts. Lorillard Tobacco also is a defendant in each of the three product liability cases in which Loews is involved. Pursuant to the Separation Agreement, Lorillard will be required to indemnify Loews for the amount of any losses and any legal or other fees with respect to such cases.

Other Litigation

          Lorillard is also party to other litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The outcome of this other litigation will not, in the opinion of management, materially affect Lorillard’s results of operations or equity.

13. Subsequent Events

          As of July 28, 2009, the Company completed the $250 million share repurchase program announced on May 21, 2009, repurchasing in the aggregate approximately 3.7 million shares of its outstanding common stock. On July 27, 2009, the Company announced that its Board of Directors had approved an additional share repurchase program, authorizing the Company to repurchase in the aggregate up to $750 million of its outstanding common stock. Purchases by the Company under this program may be made from time to time at prevailing market prices in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block purchase techniques or otherwise, as determined by the Company’s management. The purchases will be funded from existing cash balances, including proceeds from the issuance of the Notes (see Note 7 for a description of the Notes).

          This program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of its common stock. The timing, frequency and amount of repurchase activity will depend on a variety of factors such as levels of cash, generation from operations, cash requirements for investment in the Company’s business, current stock price, market conditions and other factors. The share repurchase program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time and has no set expiration date.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

          We are the third largest manufacturer of cigarettes in the United States. We were founded in 1760 and are the oldest continuously operating tobacco company in the United States. Newport, which is our flagship brand, is a menthol flavored premium cigarette brand and the top selling menthol and second largest selling cigarette brand overall in the United States based on gross units sold in the first six months of 2009 and in the full year 2008. In addition to the Newport brand, our product line has five additional brand families marketed under the Kent, True, Maverick, Old Gold and Max brand names. These six cigarette brands include 44 different product offerings which vary in price, taste, flavor, length and packaging. In the United States and certain U.S. possessions and territories, we shipped 17.8 billion cigarettes in the first six months of 2009 and 37.8 billion cigarettes for full year 2008. Our major trademarks outside of the United States were sold in 1977. We manufacture all of our cigarette products at our Greensboro, North Carolina facility.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

          For a description of the critical accounting policies that require the use of significant judgments and estimates by management, refer to “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 2, 2009.

Business Environment

          Participants in the U.S. tobacco industry, including us, face a number of issues that have adversely affected their results of operations and financial condition in the past and will continue to do so, including:

• A substantial volume of litigation seeking compensatory and punitive damages ranging into the billions of dollars, as well as equitable and injunctive relief, arising out of allegations of cancer and other health effects resulting from the use of cigarettes, addiction to smoking or exposure to environmental tobacco smoke, including claims for economic damages relating to alleged misrepresentation concerning the use of descriptors such as “lights,” as well as other alleged damages.

-27-

• Substantial annual payments continuing in perpetuity, and significant restrictions on marketing and advertising have been agreed to and are required under the terms of certain settlement agreements, including the Master Settlement Agreement among major tobacco manufacturers and 46 states and various other governments and jurisdictions (the “MSA”) that we entered into in 1998 along with Philip Morris Incorporated, Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corporation and R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company (the other “Original Participating Manufacturers”) to settle asserted and unasserted health care cost recovery and other claims. We and certain other U.S. tobacco product manufacturers previously settled similar claims brought by Mississippi, Florida, Texas and Minnesota (the “Initial State Settlements,” and together with the MSA, the “State Settlement Agreements”). The State Settlement Agreements impose a stream of future payment obligations on us and the other major U.S. cigarette manufacturers and place significant restrictions on their ability to market and sell cigarettes.

• The continuing contraction of the domestic cigarette market, in which we currently conduct our only significant business. As a result of price increases, restrictions on advertising, promotions and smoking in public and private facilities, increases in regulation and excise taxes, health concerns, a decline in the social acceptability of smoking, increased pressure from anti-tobacco groups and other factors, domestic cigarette shipments have decreased at a compound rate of approximately 2.8% from the twelve months ended June 30, 1999 through the twelve months ended June 30, 2009.

• Increases in cigarette prices since 1998 have led to an increase in the volume of discount and, specifically, deep discount cigarettes. Cigarette price increases have been driven by increases in federal, state and local excise taxes and by manufacturer price increases. Price increases have led, and continue to lead, to high levels of discounting and other promotional activities for premium brands. Deep discount brands have grown from an estimated share in 1998 of less than 1.5% to an estimated 14.1% for the six months ended June 30, 2009, and continue to be a significant competitive factor in the domestic market. We do not have sufficient empirical data to determine whether the increased price of cigarettes has deterred consumers from starting to smoke or encouraged them to quit smoking, but it is likely that increased prices may have had an adverse effect on consumption and may continue to do so.

• Substantial and increasing regulation of the tobacco industry and government restrictions on smoking. In June 2009, the U.S. Congress passed a bill which the President signed into law granting the Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) authority to regulate tobacco products. Pursuant to the terms of the new law, the FDA could promulgate regulations that could, among other things, result in a ban on or restrict the use of menthol in cigarettes. The law will impose new restrictions on the manner in which cigarettes can be advertised and marketed, require larger and more severe health warnings on cigarette packaging, permit restriction of the level of tar and nicotine contained in or yielded by cigarettes and may alter the way cigarette products are developed and manufactured. We believe that the law will provide our larger competitors with a competitive advantage. In addition, the federal government and many state and local governments and agencies, as well as private businesses, have adopted legislation, regulations or policies which prohibit, restrict or discourage smoking, including legislation, regulations or policies prohibiting or restricting smoking in public buildings and facilities, stores, restaurants and bars, on airline flights and in the workplace. Other similar laws and regulations are currently under consideration and may be enacted by federal, state and local governments in the future.

• Substantial federal, state and local excise taxes are reflected in the retail price of cigarettes. As of April 1, 2009, the federal excise tax was $1.0066 per pack and for the six months ended June 30, 2009 combined state and local excise taxes ranged from $0.07 to $4.25 per pack. For the six months ended June 30, 2009, excise tax increases ranging from $0.30 to $1.00 per pack were implemented in four states. Congress recently enacted and the President signed into law an increase in the federal excise tax on cigarettes by $0.6166 per pack to $1.0066 per pack, effective April 1, 2009, to finance health insurance for children. It is likely that increases in excise and similar taxes have had an adverse impact on sales of cigarettes and that the most recent increase and future in-

-28-

creases, the extent of which cannot be predicted, could result in further volume declines for the cigarette industry, including us, and an increased sales shift toward deep discount cigarettes rather than premium brands. In addition, we and other cigarette manufacturers and importers are required to pay an assessment under a federal law designed to fund payments to tobacco quota holders and growers.

          In December 2008, the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) issued a statement withdrawing its previous guidance allowing the use of the term “FTC method” to identify the testing protocol used by cigarette manufacturers to ascertain the tar and nicotine yields of cigarettes on advertising. The statement also set forth the FTC’s position that it considered the use of certain descriptors like “lights” and “medium” in connection with the marketing and sale of cigarettes to be misleading consumers to believe that such cigarettes are safer than other cigarettes not bearing such descriptors. As a result of such statement, we will no longer list tar and nicotine yield information in our advertising and will include a statement that the use of certain descriptors on our packaging and advertising does not mean that the cigarette in question is any safer than any other flavor or style of cigarette.

          The domestic market for cigarettes is highly competitive. Competition is primarily based on a brand’s price, including the level of discounting and other promotional activities, positioning, consumer loyalty, retail display, quality and taste. Our principal competitors are the two other major U.S. cigarette manufacturers, Philip Morris USA Inc. (“Philip Morris”), a subsidiary of Altria Group, Inc., and R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company (“Reynolds”), a subsidiary of Reynolds American Inc. We also compete with numerous other smaller manufacturers and importers of cigarettes, including deep discount cigarette manufacturers. We believe our ability to compete even more effectively has been restrained in some marketing areas as a result of retail merchandising contracts offered by Philip Morris and Reynolds which limit the retail shelf space available to our brands. As a result, in some retail locations we are limited in competitively supporting our promotional programs, which may constrain sales.

          The following table presents Lorillard’s selected industry and market share data for the three and six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008.

MSAI divides the cigarette market into two price segments, the premium price segment and the discount or reduced price segment. MSAI’s information relating to unit sales volume and market share of certain of the smaller, primarily deep discount, cigarette manufacturers is based on estimates derived by MSAI. Management believes that volume and market share information for deep discount manufacturers may be understated and, correspondingly, market share information for the larger manufacturers, including Lorillard Tobacco, may be overstated by MSAI.

Three Months ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Three Months ended June 30, 2008

          Net sales. Net sales increased by $449 million, or 42.0%, from $1.070 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2008 to $1.519 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2009. Net sales increased $304 million due to the increase in federal excise taxes effective April 1, 2009, $116 million due to higher average unit prices reflecting price increases in May and December 2008 and February and March 2009 and $34 million due to higher unit sales volume, partially offset by $5 million of higher sales incentives. Federal excise taxes are included in net sales and increased $30.83 per thousand units, or $0.62 per pack of 20 cigarettes, to $50.33 per thousand units, or $1.01 per pack of 20 cigarettes, effective April 1, 2009.

          Both our total unit volume and domestic unit volume increased 2.1% during the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the corresponding period of 2008. Unit volume figures in this section are provided on a gross basis. Our domestic wholesale shipments in the second quarter of 2009 reflect the impact of wholesalers and retailers partially restoring their inventory levels after depleting them in the first quarter of 2009 to minimize floor taxes on inventory held on March 31, 2009 due to the April 1, 2009 increase in federal excise taxes. Total Newport unit volume decreased 1.1% and domestic Newport unit volume decreased 1.2% during the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the corresponding period of 2008. Industry-wide domestic unit volume decreased 4.1% during the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the corresponding period of 2008. Industry shipments of premium brands comprised 70.5% of industry-wide domestic unit volume during the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 72.8% in the corresponding period of 2008.

          Cost of sales. Cost of sales increased by $338 million, or 53.9%, from $627 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 to $965 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in cost of sales is primarily due to the increase in federal excise taxes, higher unit sales volume, higher raw material costs, primarily tobacco and wrapping materials, higher pension expense and higher expenses related to the State Settlement Agreements. We recorded charges for our obligations under the State Settlement Agreements of $307 million and $293 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, an increase of $14 million. The $14 million increase is due to the impact of the inflation adjustment ($8 million) and higher unit sales ($6 million).

          Selling,general and administrative.Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $7 million, or 7.7%, from $91 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 to $98 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The increase was primarily due to an increase in legal expenses of $3 million due to the continuing defense costs associated with the Engle progeny cases and higher pension expense of $3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009, partially offset by a $5 million charge in the second quarter of 2008 related to the separation of Lorillard from Loews.

-30-

          Investment income.Investment income decreased $5 million, or 83.3%, from $6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 to $1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in investment income primarily reflects lower interest rates for the three months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the corresponding period of 2008.

          Income taxes. Income taxes increased by $29 million, or 20.7%, from $140 million for the three months ended June 30, 2008 to $169 million for the three months ended June 30, 2009. The change reflects the increase in income before income taxes of $98 million in 2009, or 27.5%, partially offset by a decrease in the effective tax rate from 39.2% in the three months ended June 30, 2008 to 37.1% in the three months ended June 30, 2009. This decrease in the effective tax rate impacts income tax expense by $9 million, and is primarily due to the impact of, in 2008, the separation on the availability of the manufacturer’s deduction for the pre-separation period and the non-deductibility of certain separation expenses, and, in 2009, the favorable resolution of certain state income tax matters, partially offset by an increase in state tax rates.

Six Months ended June 30, 2009 Compared to Six Months ended June 30, 2008

          Net sales. Net sales increased by $445 million, or 22.4%, from $1.991 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $2.436 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2009. Net sales increased $304 million due to the increase in federal excise taxes effective April 1, 2009 and $223 million due to higher average unit prices reflecting price increases in May and December 2008 and February and March 2009, partially offset by $65 million due to lower unit sales volume and $17 million of higher sales incentives. Federal excise taxes are included in net sales and increased $30.83 per thousand units, or $0.62 per pack of 20 units, to $50.33 per thousand cigarettes, or $1.01 per pack of 20 cigarettes, effective April 1, 2009.

          Our total unit volume decreased 2.5% and domestic unit volume decreased 2.8% during the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the corresponding period of 2008. Unit volume figures in this section are provided on a gross basis. Total Newport unit volume decreased 5.2% and domestic Newport unit volume decreased 5.6% during the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the corresponding period of 2008. Industry-wide domestic unit volume decreased 7.1% during the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the corresponding period of 2008. Industry shipments of premium brands comprised 71.0% of industry-wide domestic unit volume during the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 72.9% in the corresponding period of 2008.

          Cost of sales. Cost of sales increased by $315 million, or 26.7%, from $1.181 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $1.496 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The increase in cost of sales is primarily attributable to the increase in federal excise taxes, higher raw material costs, primarily tobacco and wrapping materials, higher pension expense and higher expenses related to the State Settlement Agreements, partially offset by lower unit sales volume. We recorded charges for our obligations under the State Settlement Agreements of $554 million and $550 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 and 2008, respectively, an increase of $4 million. The $4 million increase is due to the impact of the inflation adjustment ($15 million) and by higher other adjustments ($2 million), partially offset by lower unit sales ($13 million).

          Selling,general and administrative. Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $2 million, or 1.0%, from $191 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $189 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease was primarily due to an $18 million charge in the first six months of 2008 related to the separation of Lorillard from Loews, partially offset by increase in legal expenses of $12 million and higher pension expense of $5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The $12 million increase in legal expenses was due to the continuing defense costs associated with the Engle progeny cases.

          Investment income.Investment income decreased $14 million, or 87.5%, from $16 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The decrease in investment income primarily reflects lower interest rates for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to the corresponding period of 2008.

          Income taxes. Income taxes increased by $39 million, or 16.1%, from $242 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008 to $281 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009. The change reflects the increase in income before income taxes of $118 million in 2009, or 18.6%, partially offset by a decrease in the effective tax rate

-31-

from 38.2% in the first six months of 2008 to 37.4% in the first six months of 2009. This decrease in the effective tax rate impacts income tax expense by $6 million, and is primarily due to the impact of, in 2008, the separation on the availability of the manufacturer’s deduction for the pre-separation period and the non-deductibility of certain separation expenses, and, in 2009, the favorable resolution of certain state income tax matters, partially offset by an increase in state tax rates.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

          Our cash and cash equivalents, and investments, net of receivables and payables, totaled $1.586 billion and $1.220 billion at June 30, 2009 and December 31, 2008, respectively. At June 30, 2009, 99.0% of our cash and investments were invested in short-term securities that included $1.557 billion in government money market funds.

Cash Flows

          Cash flow from operating activities. The principal source of liquidity for our business and operating needs is internally generated funds from our operations. We generated net cash flow from operations of $92 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $260 million for the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decreased cash flow in 2009 reflects the timing of estimated federal income tax payments, partially offset by higher net income.

          Cash flow from investing activities.Our cash flow from investing activities used cash of $20 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009 compared to $179 million provided by investing activities in the six months ended June 30, 2008. The decrease in cash flow used in investing activities in 2009 is primarily due to a decrease in the level of investment purchases and sales.

          During the first six months of 2009, capital expenditures were $20 million compared to $18 million for the corresponding period of 2008. The expenditures were primarily for the modernization of manufacturing equipment. Our capital expenditures for 2009 are forecast to be between $50 million and $60 million.

          Cash flow from financing activities. Our cash flow from operations has exceeded our working capital and capital expenditure requirements during the first six months of 2009. We paid cash dividends of $291 million on January 24, 2008 and $200 million on April 28, 2008 to Loews Corporation, our sole shareholder prior to the separation on June 10, 2008, and cash dividends to our shareholders of $155 million on March 12, 2009 and $155 million on June 12, 2009. During the second quarter of 2009, the Company repurchased approximately 2.2 million shares of its common stock under a $250 million share repurchase program announced on May 21, 2009 at a cost of $146 million.

          In June 2009, Lorillard Tobacco issued $750 million of 8.125% unsecured senior notes due June 23, 2019 (the “Notes”) pursuant to an Indenture, dated June 23, 2009, and First Supplemental Indenture, dated June 23, 2009 (the “Supplemental Indenture”). Lorillard Tobacco is the principal, wholly owned operating subsidiary of the Company and the Notes are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by the Company. The net proceeds from the Notes will be used for general corporate purposes that may include, among other things, the repurchase, redemption or retirement of securities including our common stock, additions to working capital and capital expenditures.

          The interest rate payable on the Notes is subject to incremental increases from 0.25% to 2.00% in the event either Moody’s Investors Services, Inc. (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) or both Moody’s and S&P downgrade the Notes below investment grade (Baa3 and BBB- for Moody’s and S&P, respectively). The Notes are not entitled to any sinking fund and are not redeemable prior to maturity. The Notes contain covenants that restrict liens and sale and leaseback transactions, subject to a limited exception. In addition, upon the occurrence of a change of control triggering event, we will be required to make an offer to repurchase the Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus accrued interest. A “change of control triggering event” occurs when there is both a “change of control” (as defined in the Supplemental Indenture) and the Notes cease to be rated investment grade by both Moody’s and S&P within 60 days of the occurrence of a change of control or public announcement of the intention to effect a change of control.

-32-

          As of July 28, 2009, the Company completed the $250 million share repurchase program announced on May 21, 2009, repurchasing in the aggregate approximately 3.7 million shares of its outstanding common stock. On July 27, 2009, the Company announced that its Board of Directors has approved an additional share repurchase program, authorizing the Company to repurchase in the aggregate up to $750 million of its outstanding common stock. Purchases by the Company under this program may be made from time to time at prevailing market prices in open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions, block purchase techniques or otherwise, as determined by the Company’s management. The purchases will be funded from existing cash balances, including proceeds from the issuance of the Notes.

          This program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of its common stock. The timing, frequency and amount of repurchase activity will depend on a variety of factors such as levels of cash generation from operations, cash requirements for investment in the Company’s business, current stock price, market conditions and other factors. The share repurchase program may be suspended, modified or discontinued at any time and has no set expiration date.

Liquidity

          We believe that cash flow from operating activities will be sufficient for the foreseeable future to enable us to meet our obligations under the State Settlement Agreements and to fund our working capital and capital expenditure and debt service requirements. We cannot predict our cash requirements related to any future settlements or judgments, including cash required to bond any appeals, if necessary, and can make no assurance that we will be able to meet all of those requirements.

State Settlement Agreements

          The State Settlement Agreements require us and the other Original Participating Manufacturers (Philip Morris Incorporated, Brown & Williamson Tobacco Corporation and R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company) to make aggregate annual payments of $10.4 billion in perpetuity, subject to adjustment for several factors described below. In addition, the Original Participating Manufacturers are required to pay plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees, subject to an aggregate annual cap of $500 million, as well as an additional aggregate amount of up to $125 million in each year through 2008. These payment obligations are several and not joint obligations of each of the Original Participating Manufacturers. Our obligations under the State Settlement Agreements will materially adversely affect our cash flows and operating income in future years.

          Both the aggregate payment obligations of the Original Participating Manufacturers, and our payment obligations, individually, under the State Settlement Agreements are subject to adjustment for several factors which include:

• inflation;

• aggregate volume of Original Participating Manufacturers cigarette shipments;

• other Original Participating Manufacturers and our market share; and

• aggregate Original Participating Manufacturers operating income, allocated to such manufacturers that have operating income increases.

          The inflation adjustment increases payments on a compounded annual basis by the greater of 3.0% or the actual total percentage change in the consumer price index for the preceding year. The inflation adjustment is measured starting with inflation for 1999. The volume adjustment increases or decreases payments based on the increase or decrease in the total number of cigarettes shipped in or to the 50 U.S. states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico by the Original Participating Manufacturers during the preceding year compared to the 1997 base year shipments. If volume has increased, the volume adjustment would increase the annual payment by the same percentage as the number of cigarettes shipped exceeds the 1997 base number. If volume has decreased, the volume adjustment would decrease the annual payment by 98.0% of the percentage reduction in volume. In addition, downward adjustments to the annual payments for changes in volume may, subject to specified conditions and exceptions, be

-33-

reduced in the event of an increase in the Original Participating Manufacturers aggregate operating income from domestic sales of cigarettes over base year levels established in the State Settlement Agreements, adjusted for inflation. Any adjustments resulting from increases in operating income would be allocated among those Original Participating Manufacturers which have had increases.

          In April 2009, we paid $856 million under the State Settlement Agreements, primarily based on 2008 volume. In addition, in April 2009, we deposited $69 million, in an interest-bearing escrow account in accordance with procedures established in the MSA pending resolution of a claim by us and the other Original Participating Manufacturers that they are entitled to reduce their MSA payments based on a loss of market share to non-participating manufacturers. Most of the states that are parties to the MSA are disputing the availability of the reduction and we believe that this dispute will ultimately be resolved by judicial and arbitration proceedings. Our $69 million reduction is based upon the Original Participating Manufacturers collective loss of market share in 2006. In April of 2008, 2007 and 2006, we had previously deposited $72 million, $111 million and $109 million, respectively, in the same escrow account discussed above, which was based on a loss of market share in 2005, 2004 and 2003 to non-participating manufacturers. In February 2009, we directed the transfer of $72 million from this account to the non-disputed account, related to the loss of market share in 2005, pursuant to an Agreement Concerning Arbitration that we and other Participating Manufacturers entered into with certain MSA states. This amount was then paid to the MSA states. We and the other Original Participating Manufacturers have the right to claim additional reductions of MSA payments in subsequent years under provisions of the MSA. In addition to the payments made in the first six months of 2009, we anticipate the additional amount payable in 2009 will be approximately $180 million to $210 million, primarily based on 2009 estimated volume.

Contractual Cash Payment Obligations

          The following chart presents our contractual cash payment obligations as of June 30, 2009.

			Less than						More than
	Total		1 year		1-3 years		3-5 years		5 years
			(In millions)
Senior notes	$	750	$	¾	$	¾	$	¾	$	750
Interest payments related to notes		609		61		183		122		243
Tobacco leaf purchase obligations		110		102		8		¾		¾
Purchase obligations		61		59		2		¾		¾
Operating lease obligations		5		2		3		¾		¾
Total	$	1,535	$	224	$	196	$	122	$	993

          In addition to the obligations presented in the table above, as of June 30, 2009, we believe that no additional payments may be made to various tax authorities in the next twelve months related to gross unrecognized tax benefits. We cannot make a reasonably reliable estimate of the amount of liabilities for unrecognized tax benefits that may result in cash settlements for periods beyond twelve months.

          As previously discussed, we have entered into the State Settlement Agreements, which impose a stream of future payment obligations on us and the other major U.S. cigarette manufacturers. Our portion of ongoing adjusted settlement payments, including fees to settling plaintiffs’ attorneys, is based on a number of factors which are described above. Our cash payment under the State Settlement Agreements in 2008 amounted to $1.08 billion and we estimate our cash payments in 2009 under the State Settlement Agreements will be between $1.12 billion and $1.13 billion, primarily based on 2008 estimated industry volume. Payment obligations are not incurred until the related sales occur and therefore are not reflected in the above table.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

          None.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk.

Market Risk

          We invest in financial instruments that involve market risk. Our measure of market risk exposure represents an estimate of the change in fair value of our financial instruments. Market risk exposure is presented below for each class of financial instrument we held at June 30, 2009, assuming immediate adverse market movements of the magnitude described below. We believe that the rate of adverse market movement represents a measure of exposure to loss under hypothetically assumed adverse conditions. The estimated market risk exposure represents the hypothetical loss to future earnings and does not represent the maximum possible loss nor any expected actual loss, even under adverse conditions, because actual adverse fluctuations would likely differ. In addition, since our investment portfolio is subject to change based on its portfolio management strategy as well as in response to changes in the market, these estimates are not necessarily indicative of the actual results which may occur. The market risk exposure represents the potential loss in carrying value and pretax impact to future earnings caused by the hypothetical change in price.

          Exposure to market risk is managed and monitored by senior management. Senior management approves our overall investment strategy and has the responsibility to ensure that the investment positions are consistent with that strategy with an acceptable level of risk.

          Interest rate risk. Our investments, which are included in cash and cash equivalents, consist of government money market funds and repurchase agreements with financial institutions, which agreements are collateralized by treasury securities on deposit with the Company equal to 102% of the principal investment. Those investments are exposed to fluctuations in interest rates. A sensitivity analysis, based on a hypothetical 1% increase or decrease in interest rates on our average 2009 investments, would cause an increase or decrease in pretax income of approximately $6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2009.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

          Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) are effective, in all material respects, to provide reasonable assurance that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

          No change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) under the Exchange Act) occurred during our most recent fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

With the exception of the following, there have been no other material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Form 10-K and Prior Form 10-Q:

As of July 27, 2009, Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in approximately 5,925 tobacco-related lawsuits, including approximately 710 cases in which Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant. These cases, which are extremely costly to defend, could result in substantial judgments against Lorillard Tobacco and/or Lorillard, Inc.

          Numerous legal actions, proceedings and claims arising out of the sale, distribution, manufacture, development, advertising, marketing and claimed health effects of cigarettes are pending against Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc., and it is likely that similar claims will continue to be filed for the foreseeable future. In addition, several cases have been filed against Lorillard Tobacco and other tobacco companies challenging certain provisions of the Master Settlement Agreement among major tobacco manufacturers and 46 states and various other governments and jurisdictions (the “MSA”), and state statutes promulgated to carry out and enforce the MSA.

          Punitive damages, often in amounts ranging into the billions of dollars, are specifically pleaded in a number of cases in addition to compensatory and other damages. It is possible that the outcome of these cases, individually or in the aggregate, could result in bankruptcy. It is also possible that Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc. may be unable to post a surety bond in an amount sufficient to stay execution of a judgment in jurisdictions that require such bond pending an appeal on the merits of the case. Even if Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc. are successful in defending some or all of these actions, these types of cases are very expensive to defend. A material increase in the number of pending claims could significantly increase defense costs and have an adverse effect on our results of operation and financial condition. Further, adverse decisions in litigations against other tobacco companies could have an adverse impact on the industry, including us.

The Florida Supreme Court’s ruling in Engle has resulted in additional litigation against cigarette manufacturers, including us.

          The case ofEngle v. R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Co., et al.(Circuit Court, Dade County, Florida, filed May 5, 1994) was certified as a class action on behalf of Florida residents, and survivors of Florida residents, who were injured or died from medical conditions allegedly caused by addiction to smoking. The case was tried between 1998 and 2000 in a multi-phase trial that resulted in verdicts in favor of the class. During 2006, the Florida Supreme Court issued a ruling that, among other things, determined that the case could not proceed further as a class action. In February 2008, the trial court entered an order on remand from the Florida Supreme Court that formally decertified the class.

          The 2006 ruling by the Florida Supreme Court inEnglealso permitted members of theEngle class to file individual claims, including claims for punitive damages. The Florida Supreme Court held that these individual plaintiffs are entitled to rely on a number of the jury’s findings in favor of the plaintiffs in the first phase of theEngletrial. These findings included that smoking cigarettes causes a number of diseases; that cigarettes are addictive or dependence-producing; and that the defendants, including Lorillard Tobacco and Lorillard, Inc., were negligent, breached express and implied warranties, placed cigarettes on the market that were defective and unreasonably dangerous, and concealed or conspired to conceal the risks of smoking. Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in approximately 3,200 cases pending in various state and federal courts in Florida that were filed by members of theEngleclass (the “EngleProgeny Cases”), including approximately 700 cases in which Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant. These 3,200 cases are filed on behalf of approximately 8,625 individual plaintiffs.

          As of July 27, 2009, Lorillard Tobacco was a defendant in severalEngleProgeny Cases that have been placed on courts’ 2009 trial calendars or in which specific 2009 trial dates have been set. Lorillard, Inc. is a co-defendant in some of these cases. Trial schedules are subject to change and it is not possible to predict how many of theEngleProgeny Cases pending against Lorillard Tobacco or Lorillard, Inc. will be tried during 2009. It also is not possible to predict whether some courts will implement procedures that consolidate multipleEngleProgeny Cases for trial.

-36-

          Verdicts have been returned in sevenEngleProgeny cases since the Florida Supreme Court issued its 2006 ruling. Neither Lorillard Tobacco nor Lorillard, Inc. was a defendant in these seven trials. In two of the seven trials, juries awarded actual damages and punitive damages. The punitive damages awards were $5 million in one of the cases and $25 million in the other. In two other trials, juries awarded only actual damages. In the three other trials, juries found in favor of the defendants that the plaintiffs were not formerEngleclass members.

Lorillard Tobacco is a defendant in a case that was initially certified as a nationwide class action involving “lights” cigarettes and that could result in a substantial verdict, if the class certification order is reinstated.

          Schwab v. Philip Morris USA, Inc., et al.(U.S. District Court, Eastern District, New York, filed May 11, 2004), was certified by a federal judge as a nationwide class action on behalf of individuals who purchased “light” cigarettes. Plaintiffs’ claims inSchwabare based on defendants’ alleged RICO violations in the manufacture, marketing and sale of “light” cigarettes. Plaintiffs have estimated damages to the class to be in the hundreds of billions of dollars. Any damages awarded to the plaintiffs based on defendants’ violation of the RICO statute would be multiplied by a factor of three. In March 2008, a federal court of appeals reversed the class certification ruling. Plaintiffs did not seek further review of this decision and the case has been returned to the Eastern District of New York for further proceedings.Schwabis one of a number of cases pending in federal courts that are the subject of a petition seeking the transfer and consolidation of certain purported “lights” class action cases into a specially constituted court for pretrial proceedings. As of July 27, 2009, the petition has not been decided by the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation before which it is pending. We cannot predict future activity in this case.

The verdict returned in the federal government’s reimbursement case, while not final, could impose significant financial burdens on us and adversely affect future sales and profits.

     In August 2006, a final judgment and remedial order was entered inUnited States of America v. Philip Morris USA, Inc., et al.(U.S. District Court, District of Columbia, filed September 22, 1999). The court based its final judgment and remedial order on the government’s only remaining claims, which were based on the defendants’ alleged violations of the Racketeering Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”). Lorillard, Inc. is not a party to this matter, but Lorillard Tobacco is one of the defendants in the case. Although the verdict did not award monetary damages to the plaintiff, the final judgment and remedial order imposed a number of requirements on the defendants. Such requirements include, but are not limited to, corrective statements by defendants related to the health effects of smoking. The remedial order also would place certain prohibitions on the manner in which defendants market their cigarette products and would eliminate any use of “lights” or similar product descriptors. It is likely that the remedial order, including the prohibitions on the use of the descriptors relating to low tar cigarettes, will negatively affect our future sales and profits.

     In May 2009, a three judge panel of the Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia upheld substantially all of the District Court’s final judgment and remedial order. Defendants received a stay of the judgment and remedial order from the Court of Appeals that remains in effect while the appeal is pending. While trial was underway, the Court of Appeals ruled that plaintiff may not seek to recover profits earned by the defendants. Prior to trial, the government had claimed that it was entitled to approximately $280.0 billion from the defendants for its claim to recover profits earned by the defendants. In the most recent appeal, the government preserved its right to seek review of this claim by the United States Supreme Court, but the issue of recovery of profits was not considered. This issue may however be considered by the entire Court of Appeals or by the United States Supreme Court should either party or one or more intervenors in the case seek to appeal this decision further. The period for the parties or the intervenors to ask the Court of Appeals to reconsider its decision expires on July 31, 2009.

The regulation of cigarettes by the Food and Drug Administration may materially adversely affect our business.

     In June 2009, the U.S. Congress passed a bill signed into law by the President that grants the FDA authority to regulate tobacco products. The bill was supported by Philip Morris and opposed by us and Reynolds American Inc. The legislation will:

§ establish a Tobacco Products Scientific Advisory Committee to evaluate the issues surrounding the use of menthol as a flavoring or ingredient in cigarettes within one year of such committee’s establishment;

-37-

§	grant the FDA the regulatory authority to consider and impose broad additional restrictions through a rule making process, including a ban on the use of menthol in cigarettes;
§	require larger and more severe health warnings on packs and cartons;
§	ban the use of descriptors on tobacco products, such as “low tar” and “light”;
§	require the disclosure of ingredients and additives to consumers;
§	require pre-market approval by the FDA for claims made with respect to reduced risk or reduced exposure products;
§	allow the FDA to require the reduction of nicotine or any other compound in cigarettes;
§	allow the FDA to mandate the use of reduced risk technologies in conventional cigarettes;
§	allow the FDA to place more severe restrictions on the advertising, marketing and sales of cigarettes; and
§	permit inconsistent state regulation of the advertising or promotion of cigarettes and eliminate the existing federal preemption of such regulation.

     The legislation also would permit the FDA to ban menthol upon a finding that such prohibition would be appropriate for the public health. Any ban or material limitation on the use of menthol in cigarettes would materially adversely affect our results of operation, cash flows and financial condition. It is possible that such additional regulation, including regulation of menthol short of a ban thereof, could result in a decrease in cigarette sales in the United States (including sales of our brands) and increased costs to us, which may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows. We believe that such regulation may adversely affect our ability to compete against our larger competitors, including Philip Morris, who may be able to more quickly and cost-effectively comply with these new rules and regulations.

Concerns that mentholated cigarettes may pose greater health risks could adversely affect our business.

     Some plaintiffs and other sources, including public health agencies, have claimed or expressed concerns that mentholated cigarettes may pose greater health risks than non-mentholated cigarettes, including concerns that menthol cigarettes may make it easier to start smoking and harder to quit. For example, in June 2008, seven former U.S. health secretaries criticized the bill then under consideration in the House of Representatives to grant the FDA the authority to regulate tobacco products and ban the use of characterizing flavors other than menthol in cigarettes. The former health secretaries argued that the menthol exemption discriminates against African-American smokers who often prefer menthol cigarettes and have higher rates of some smoking-related diseases. In the course of consideration of the bill by a committee of the House of Representatives in 2008, an amendment was offered and rejected which would have banned the use of menthol as an ingredient in cigarettes. The final bill passed by Congress and signed into law by the President in June 2009 includes a provision establishing a Tobacco Products Scientific Advisory Committee to evaluate issues surrounding the use of menthol as a flavoring or ingredient in cigarettes within one year of such Committee’s establishment. The legislation also would permit the FDA to ban menthol upon a finding that such prohibition would be appropriate for the public health. Prior to these developments, in 2002 the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services National Institutes of Health, Center for Disease Control and Prevention and National Cancer Institute and other public health agencies supported the First Conference on Menthol Cigarettes. The executive summary of the conference proceedings outlined “why it is important to study menthol cigarettes” and included statements that “menthol’s sensation of coolness might result in deeper inhalation” and “could contribute to increased uptake of inhaled tobacco constituents, including nicotine and cancer-causing agents...” In addition, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention has published a pamphlet titled “Pathways to Freedom, Winning the Fight Against Tobacco” that, under the heading “The Dangers of Menthol” states that “menthol can make it easier for a smoker to inhale deeply, which may allow more chemicals to enter the lungs. Menthol in cigarettes does not make smoking safer. In fact, menthol may even make things worse.” Since we are the leading manufacturer of mentholated cigarettes in the United States, we could face increased exposure to tobacco-related litigation as a result of such allegations. Even if such claims are unsubstantiated, increased concerns about the health

-38-

impact of mentholated cigarettes could adversely affect our sales, including sales of Newport. Any ban or material limitation on the use of menthol in cigarettes would materially adversely affect our results of operation, cash flows and financial condition.

          The shares repurchased were acquired under a share repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors on May 21, 2009 for a maximum of $250 million. All repurchases were made in open market transactions. The Company records the repurchase of shares of common stock at cost based on the transaction date of the repurchase. As of July 28, 2009, we completed the $250 million share repurchase program with additional repurchases during July 2009 of approximately 1.5 million shares of our common stock at an additional cost of $104 million.
