The Tender Offer is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated March 3, 2022 (as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time, the “Offer to Purchase”). Capitalized terms used in this press release but not defined have the meanings given to them in the Offer to Purchase.

As previously announced, as the aggregate consideration amount, including premium but excluding any Accrued Interest (as defined below) of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date exceeded the Maximum Tender Amount, Mondelēz International is increasing the Maximum Tender Amount to approximately $1,030 million in order to accept for purchase all Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date with acceptance priority levels 1 through 9, except for the 2030 Notes, with acceptance priority level 7, which are subject to the 2030 Notes SubCap. As such, since the aggregate principal amount of the 2030 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date exceeded the 2030 Notes SubCap, Mondelēz International accepts for purchase the 2030 Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date up to the 2030 Notes SubCap, on a prorated basis by a proration factor of approximately 54.09%, subject to the rounding and further scaling provisions detailed in the Offer to Purchase. Mondelēz International will not accept for purchase any of the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date with acceptance priority levels 10 and 11. No additional Notes tendered after the Early Tender Date will be accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer. Notes tendered pursuant to the Tender Offer and not accepted for purchase due to the Maximum Tender Amount, the 2030 Notes SubCap, the Acceptance Priority Levels or proration will be returned to the tendering Holders promptly following the Early Tender Date.

As previously announced, the consideration paid in the Tender Offer has been determined in the manner described in the Offer to Purchase by reference to the applicable fixed spread over the bid-side yield to maturity of the applicable Reference Security specified in the Offer to Purchase as calculated by the Dealer Managers for the Tender Offer at 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on Thursday, March 17, 2022.

Holders who have validly tendered (and who have not validly withdrawn) their Notes at or prior to the Early Tender Date and whose Notes are accepted for purchase will receive the applicable “Total Consideration” per $1,000 principal amount, as applicable, of Notes accepted for purchase, which includes an early tender premium for the applicable series of Notes as set forth in the Offer to Purchase. In addition to the Total Consideration, all Holders of Notes accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on such $1,000 principal amount of Notes from the last applicable interest payment date up to, but not including, the applicable settlement date, payable on the applicable settlement date (“Accrued Interest”).

Settlement for Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn at or prior to the Early Tender Date and accepted for purchase pursuant to the Tender Offer will be on Friday, March 18, 2022.
