Safe Harbor Disclaimer
You
are
cautioned

are
“forward-looking”
statements
within
the
meaning
of
the
Private
Securities
Litigation

future financial performance (including future revenues, earnings or growth rates), ongoing business strategies or
prospects, and possible actions by Lorillard, Inc. are also forward-looking statements as defined by the Act.
Forward-looking statements are based on current expectations and projections about future events and are
inherently
subject
to
a
variety
of

and
uncertainties,
many
of
which
are
beyond

and
could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated or projected.
Information describing factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in forward-looking
statements is available in Lorillard, Inc.’s various filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). 
These
filings
are
available

the
Internet
or

Forward-looking statements speak only as of the time they are made, and Lorillard, Inc. expressly disclaims any
obligation or undertaking to update these statements to reflect any change in expectations or beliefs or any change
in events, conditions or circumstances on which any forward-looking statement is based.
This forward-looking statements disclaimer is only a brief summary of Lorillard, Inc.’s statutory forward-looking-
statements disclaimer.  You are urged to read that disclaimer, which is included in Lorillard Inc.’s Form 10-K and

other
measure
of
financial
performance
or
liquidity presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). 
These measures are not necessarily comparable to a similarly titled measure of another
