incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement, any related free writing prospectus and the attached prospectus. We take no
responsibility for, and can provide no assurance as to the reliability of, any other information that others may give you. If the information varies
between this prospectus supplement and the attached prospectus, the information in this prospectus supplement supersedes the information in the
attached prospectus. We are not making an offer of these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. Neither the
delivery of this prospectus supplement, any related free writing prospectus or the attached prospectus, nor any sale made hereunder and
thereunder, shall under any circumstances create any implication that there has been no change in our affairs since the date of this prospectus
supplement, any related free writing prospectus or the attached prospectus, regardless of the time of delivery of such document or any sale of

subsequent to the date of such information.
The distribution of this prospectus supplement and the attached prospectus and the offering or sale of the notes in some jurisdictions may be restricted
by law. Persons into whose possession this prospectus supplement and the attached prospectus come are required by us and the underwriters to inform
themselves about, and to observe, any applicable restrictions. This prospectus supplement and the attached prospectus may not be used for or in connection

Notice to Prospective Investors in the European Economic Area
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/764180/000119312519038134/d705235d424b2.htm[2/14/2019 9:24:48 AM]


FINAL PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
The notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail
investor in the European Economic Area ("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client as defined
in point (11) of Article 4(1) of

S-i
Table of Contents
Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive 2002/92/EC as amended, where that customer would
not qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (iii) not a qualified investor as defined in Directive 2003/71/EC
(as amended, the "Prospectus Directive"). Consequently no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the
"PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been prepared and therefore
offering or selling the notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.
MiFID II Product Governance / Professional Investors and ECPs Only Target Market
Solely for the purposes of each manufacturer's product approval process, the target market assessment in respect of the notes has led to the
conclusion that: (i) the target market for the notes is eligible counterparties and professional clients only, each as defined in MiFID II; and (ii) all channels
for distribution of the notes to eligible counterparties and professional clients are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or recommending
the notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration the manufacturers' target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is
responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the notes (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers' target market
assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.

FINAL PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
including U.S. Smokeless Tobacco Company LLC and Ste. Michelle Wine Estates Ltd., or Ste. Michelle, is engaged in the manufacture and sale of
smokeless tobacco products and wine. Our other operating companies include Philip Morris Capital Corporation, which maintains a portfolio of
finance assets, substantially all of which are leveraged leases, and Nu Mark LLC, both of which are wholly-owned subsidiaries. In December 2018,
we announced the decision to refocus our innovative product efforts, which includes the discontinuation of production and distribution of all
MarkTen® and Green Smoke® evapor

products. Prior to that time, Nu Mark LLC was engaged in the manufacture and sale of innovative tobacco
products. Our other wholly-owned subsidiaries include Altria Group Distribution Company, which provides sales and distribution services to certain
of our operating subsidiaries, and Altria Client Services LLC, which provides various support services in areas such as legal, regulatory, consumer
engagement, finance, human resources and external affairs to us and our subsidiaries.
Our access to the operating cash flows of our wholly-owned subsidiaries consists of cash received from the payment of dividends and
distributions, and the payment of interest on intercompany loans by our subsidiaries. At December 31, 2018, our principal wholly-owned subsidiaries
were not limited by long-term debt or other agreements in their ability to pay cash dividends or make other distributions with respect to their equity
interests. In addition, we had an approximate 10.1% ownership of Anheuser-Busch InBev SA/NV, or AB InBev, and a 35% economic interest in
JUUL Labs, Inc., or JUUL (see "Summary--Recent Developments--JUUL Investment"), in each case, at December 31, 2018.
The brand portfolios of our tobacco operating companies include Marlboro®, Black & Mild®, Copenhagen® and Skoal®. Ste. Michelle produces
and markets premium wines sold under various labels, including Chateau Ste. Michelle®, Columbia Crest®, 14 Hands® and Stag's Leap Wine
CellarsTM, and it imports and markets Antinori®, Champagne Nicolas FeuillatteTM, Torres® and Villa Maria EstateTM products in the United States.
Our principal executive offices are located at 6601 West Broad Street, Richmond, Virginia 23230, our telephone number is (804) 274-2200 and
our website is www.altria.com. The information contained in, or that can be accessed through, our website is not and shall not be deemed to be a part
of this prospectus supplement.
Recent Developments
Cronos Investment
On December 7, 2018, we entered into an agreement to purchase, through a subsidiary, approximately 146.2 million newly issued common
shares of Cronos Group Inc., or Cronos, a global cannabinoid company headquartered in Toronto, Canada (the "Cronos transaction"). We expect the
transaction to close in the first half of 2019. Upon completion of the Cronos transaction, we will own an approximate 45% equity interest in Cronos.
The purchase price for the approximate 45% equity interest is approximately CAD $2.4 billion (approximately $1.8 billion, based on the CAD to U.S.
dollar exchange rate on January 25, 2019), to be paid on the date of the closing of the transaction. Additionally, the agreement includes a warrant to
purchase up to an additional approximately 72.2 million common shares of Cronos at a per share exercise price of CAD $19.00. Upon full exercise of
the warrant, which expires four years after issuance, we would own approximately 55% of the

S-3
Table of Contents
outstanding common shares of Cronos. The exercise price for the warrant is approximately CAD $1.4 billion (approximately $1.0 billion, based on the
CAD to U.S. dollar exchange rate on January 25, 2019). We believe this investment will position us to participate in the emerging global cannabis
sector and also create a new growth opportunity in a category adjacent to our core tobacco business. We caution you that we may not realize the
expected benefits of the Cronos transaction.
As a part of the agreement, upon completion of the Cronos transaction and so long as we continue to hold at least 40% of the outstanding
common shares of Cronos, we will have the right to nominate four directors, including one independent director, to serve on Cronos' board of
directors, which will be expanded from five to seven directors. In the event we no longer hold 40% of the outstanding common shares of Cronos, but
hold more than 10%, we will be entitled to nominate a number of directors that represents our then-proportionate share of the number of directors
comprising Cronos' board of directors.
We expect to account for our investment in Cronos under the equity method of accounting. The completion of the Cronos transaction is subject
to certain customary closing conditions, including approval of Cronos shareholders and receipt of regulatory approvals. We submitted our application
for regulatory review under the Investment Canada Act in late December of 2018 and Cronos' shareholders are scheduled to vote on the transaction on
February 21, 2019.
JUUL Investment
On December 20, 2018, we entered into an agreement with JUUL, the U.S. leader in e-vapor, pursuant to which we, through a wholly-owned
subsidiary, purchased shares of JUUL's non-voting class C-1 common stock for a price of $12.8 billion (the "JUUL transaction"), which will convert
automatically to shares of JUUL's voting class C common stock if and when antitrust clearance is obtained. In addition, we received a security
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/764180/000119312519038134/d705235d424b2.htm[2/14/2019 9:24:48 AM]


FINAL PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
convertible into additional shares of JUUL's class C-1 non-voting common stock or class C voting common stock, as applicable, for no additional
payment upon settlement or exercise of certain JUUL convertible securities. As a result of the JUUL transaction, we own 35% of the issued and
outstanding capital stock of JUUL. Upon conversion of our non-voting common stock to voting common stock, except to the extent that our
percentage ownership has decreased, we will have the right to designate one-third of the members of the JUUL board of directors, subject to
proportionate downward adjustment if our percentage ownership falls below 30%. We received a broad preemptive right to purchase JUUL shares to
maintain our ownership percentage and are subject to a standstill restriction under which we may not acquire additional JUUL shares above our 35%
interest. We also agreed not to sell or transfer any JUUL common shares for six years from December 20, 2018.
We believe that investing in the leading U.S. e-vapor company better positions us with adult smokers interested in alternatives and provides
exposure to international growth plans. We caution you that we may not realize the expected benefits of the JUUL transaction. See "Risk Factors--
Risks Related to Our Investment in JUUL."
On February 4, 2019, we filed our application for antitrust clearance under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as
amended. Upon receipt of anti-trust clearance, our non-voting common stock converts to voting common stock, at which point we expect to account
for our investment in JUUL under the equity method of accounting.
In connection with the JUUL transaction, we also entered into a services agreement with JUUL pursuant to which we agreed to provide JUUL
with certain commercial services, as requested by JUUL, for an initial term of six years. Among other things, we may provide services to JUUL with
respect to logistics and distribution, access to retail shelf space, youth vaping prevention, cigarette pack inserts and onserts, regulatory matters and

government affairs. We have also agreed to grant JUUL a non-exclusive, royalty-free perpetual, irrevocable, sublicenseable license to our
non-trademark licensable intellectual property rights in the e-vapor field, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in an intellectual property
license agreement between us and JUUL. We have agreed to non-competition obligations generally requiring that we participate in the e-vapor
business only through JUUL as long as we are supplying JUUL services, which we are committed to doing for at least six years.
Term Loan Agreement
On December 20, 2018, we entered into a term loan agreement, or the Term Loan Agreement, with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as
administrative agent, and the lenders party thereto, in connection with our investments in Cronos and JUUL. The Term Loan Agreement provides for
borrowings up to an aggregate principal amount of $14.6 billion and is comprised of (i) a $12.8 billion tranche, which we used to finance the JUUL
transaction, and (ii) a $1.8 billion tranche, which is available, subject to certain customary conditions to borrowing, to finance the Cronos transaction
and remains undrawn. At December 31, 2018, our borrowings under the Term Loan Agreement totaled $12.8 billion.
The net proceeds of this offering will be used to prepay outstanding borrowings under our Term Loan Agreement used to finance the JUUL
transaction. Any remaining net proceeds will be used to finance our investment in Cronos and for other general corporate purposes. In addition to the
proceeds from this offering, we have offered, pursuant to a separate prospectus supplement, additional notes denominated in euros at varying
maturities. The euro notes offering launched and priced on February 11, 2019 and is expected to close on February 15, 2019. This prospectus
supplement is not an offer with respect to the euro notes offering and the consummation of this offering is not contingent on the consummation of the
euro notes offering.
Cost Reduction Program
On December 19, 2018, our Board of Directors approved a cost reduction program that we expect will deliver approximately $575 million in
annualized cost savings by the end of 2019. The program includes, among other things, third-party spending reductions across the business and
workforce reductions. We recorded pre-tax charges of $121 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 related to the program.
