Borrowings
The cash requirements of the Company are usually at a maximum between September and March,
because of heavy leaf buying during this period, and at a minimum in the summer, prior to such
buying
season. It is customary in the industry to borrow short term funds in order to finance these
seasonal
purchases of leaf tobacco. During 1966 short-term borrowings ranged between a minimum and maximum
of $10,900,000 and $49,900,000, respectively. Such short-term borrowings on March 31, 1967 were
$ 31,400,000.
Prices
Sales
The list price of the Company's filter and non-filter king-size and 100 mm. filter cigarettes is
$9.20
per thousand and of non-filter regular size is $9.00 per thousand. Such figures reflect a price
increase
of $.20 per thousand effective March, 1966. The prices include Federal excise tax at the rate of
$4 per thousand and are subject to the usual 2% cash discount if paid within ten days.
State and Local Taxes
At April 30, 1967, excise taxes on cigarettes, which are levied upon and paid by the distributors,
were in effect in forty-nine States, the District of Columbia and a number of municipalities. Such
taxes,
many of which have been increased in recent years, range from two cents to fifteen cents per package
of twenty cigarettes.
Employees
On April 30, 1967, the Company had approximately employees, of whom approximately
.. were hourly rated production and service employees covered by collective bargaining agreements
with affiliates of the AFL-CIO and some independent craft unions. The remaining .... employees
are other hourly rated personnel or are salaried employees serving in executive, administrative,
engineer-
ing, supervisory, production and clerical capacities.
On January 1, 1965, a three-year contract relating to cigarette operations was entered into with
the Tobacco Workers' International Union AFL-CIO.

Transactions with Directors and Officers
Mr. Meyer, a director of the Company, is President of Heintz van Landewyck, s.a.r.1., a Luxem-
bourg tobacco manufacturer, all of the share capital of which is owned by Mr. Meyer and members of
his family. P. Lorillard International S.A., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, and Heintz
van
Landewyck s.a.r.l. each own a one-half interest in P. Lorillard s.a.r.l., a Luxembourg corporation,
which,
since April, 1964, has manufactured and sold under license certain of the Company's brands for
several
of the Common Market countries.
On August 21, 1964, the Company purchased 4,600 shares from Mr. Gruber, a director of the
Company, at a purchase price of $46.125 per share, which were used as a part of the consideration
given in connection with the acquisition of the business of Usen Canning Co. (See "Business"
herein.)
On such date, the mean between the highest and lowest selling prices on the New York Stock Exchange
was $46.75 per share.
The law firm of Stassen, Kephart, Sarkis & Kostos, or predecessor firms (of which Mr. Stassen, a
director of the Company, was a partner) were paid $35,975, $39,300 and $33,825 for legal services in
international matters in 1964, 1965 and 1966, respectively.
OPTIONS
Restricted Stock Option Plan
In October, 1957, the Company adopted a Restricted Stock Option Plan (the 1957 Plan), which
provides for the granting to key employees of the Company, including officers, of restricted stock
options
(as defined in Section 421 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1954) to acquire shares of Common Stock
of the Company.
The 1957 Plan specifies a maximum term for options granted thereunder of ten years from the date
of grant and all outstanding options are for a term of ten years. Each outstanding option agreement
contains a provision under which the employee agrees to remain in the employ of the Company for at
least two years. Except under specified circumstances, an employee is not permitted, within two
years
after the date upon which an option shall have been exercised with respect to any share, to make a
sale
or other disposition of such share within the meaning of Section 425(c) of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1954, as amended by the Revenue Act of 1964. The Company believes that, under such Revenue
Act, certain changes will be required in any option hereafter granted under the 1957 Plan if such
options
are to be treated as "qualified stock options".
As of April 25, 1967, 31 key employees, including 13 officers, held options to purchase an
aggregate of 33,100 shares of Common Stock of the Company. Of these, options for 2,100 shares
were granted on September 18, 1959, at the price of $39.50 per share and options for 31,000 shares
were
granted on June 20, 1962, at $43.50 per share. In each case the option price was not less than 95%
of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time the option was granted. Included in the
options granted in 1959 were options for a total of 2,100 shares to persons who were officers or
directors,
including an option for 900 shares held by Mr. Jordan and an option for 1,000 shares held by Miss
Woessner. Included in the options granted in 1962 were options for a total of 17,500 shares to
persons
who were officers or directors, including options held by the following: Mr. Bennett, 3,000 shares;
Mr. Darby, 1,000 shares; Mr. Erickson, 3,000 shares; Mr. Jordan, 1,000 shares; Mr. Okerson, 2,000
shares; and Miss Woessner, 500 shares.

Stock Purchase, Option and Incentive Plan
In April, 1963, the Company adopted a Stock Purchase, Option and Incentive Plan (the 1963
Plan) under which the Company's Common Stock may be sold through stock purchase or subscription
arrangements or through stock options to key employees, including officers, of the Company.
The stock option provisions under the 1963 Plan are generally similar to those in the 1957 Plan
except that, among other things, the option price must be equal to 100% of the fair market value of
the
Common Stock on the date of grant. As of April 25, 1967, 47 key employees, including 16 officers,
held options under the 1963 Plan to purchase an aggregate of 83,400 shares of Common Stock of the
Company. Of these, options for 30.200 shares were granted on July 31, 1963 for a period of ten years
at the price of $44.75 per share and options for 53,200 shares were eranted on December 1, 1965 for
a period of five years at the price of $45 per share. In each case the option price was not less
than 100%
of the fair market value of the Common Stock at the time the option was granted. Included in options
eranted in 1963 were options for a total of 15,400 shares to persons who were officers or directors,
including options held by the followine: Mr. Bennett, 3.000 shares; Mr. Darby, 1,000 shares; Mr.
Erickson, 3,000 shares; Mr. Jordan, 2,000 shares; and Mr. Okerson, 1,000 shares. Included in the
options granted in 1965 were options for a total of 46,600 shares to persons who were officers and
directors includin, options held by the following: Mr. Bennett, 7.500 shares; Mr. Darby, 1,000
shares;
Mr. Davies, 6,000 shares; Mr. Erickson, 3,000 shares; Mr. Jordan, 5,000 shares; Mr. Levathes, 5.000
shares; Mr. Okerson, 5,000 shares; and Mr. Yellen, 10,000 shares.
Under the 1963 grants, the stock purchase arrangement provides for the immediate sale and transfer
of shares, with ten per cent of the purchase price (but not less than $5 per share) to be paid
forthwith,
annual instalments of approximately two and one-half per cent to be paid thereafter, the unpaid
balance
to be paid in July, 1968 (with right of prepayment) and simple interest payable to the Company on
the unpaid balance of the purchase price. The employee is entitled to all dividends on the stock.
The stock is held as collateral, subiect to being returned to the Company if the purchase price is
not paid before the end of the period in July, 1968, without refund of any payments made or release
of shares equivalent to such payments, but with no further liability on the part of the employee. If
employment is terminated under certain circumstances within two years after the purchase agreement
is made, the Company is entitled to repurchase all shares for the amounts paid by the employee
exclusive of interest. Thirty-two employees agreed to purchase a total of 17,950 shares at $44.75
per
share under this arrangement during 1964 and such shares were all sold and transferred upon receipt
by
the Company of the required down payment of $5 a share. Included among the employees agreeing to
purchase shares under the stock purchase arrangement were the following directors and officers: Mr.
Bennett, 500 shares; Mr. Davies, 3,500 shares; Mr. Erickson, 500 shares; Mr. Okerson, 500 shares;
Mr. Yellen, 3,500 shares; directors and officers as a group, 9,900 shares. Miss Woessner was granted
and exercised a stock purchase right on December 1. 1965 for 500 shares at $45 per share under an
arrangement similar to those granted in 1963, except that principal payments of approximately four
per cent per annum must be paid, with the unpaid balance due in November, 1970. The approximate
amounts of the purchase price remainine unpaid as of February 1, 1967 were as follows: Mr. Bennett,
$18,500; Mr. Davies, $130,000; Mr. Erickson, $18,500; Mr. Okerson, $18,500; Miss Woessner, $19,000;
and Mr. Yellen, $130,000.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
By decree dated November 16, 1911, of the Circuit Court of the United States for the Southern
District of New York, in a suit entitled United States of America vs. The American Tobacco Company
and others, under the Sherman Act, each of fourteen corporations, including the Company, was
prohibited
from taking specified action, including (1) making transfers of its property to any other of those
cor-
porations, (2) making any agreements of specified types with any other of those corporations,
including
agreements relative to the control or management thereof, relative to the price or terms of purchase
or
sale of tobacco or tobacco products and relative to the apportionment among those corporations of
trade
or business either as to customers or localities, (3) holding stock in a corporation whose stock is
also
held by another of those corporations and (4), with stated exceptions, requiring a jobber to buy
another
brand or brands from such corporation in order to be able to buy a p9rticular brand.
The Company is a defendant, along with one or more other tobacco manufacturers, in four cases
which involve claims that the respective plaintiff or plaintiffs' decedents contracted cancer or
other
involvement of the lung or throat as a result of the use of tobacco products. Damages which range
from $9,999 to $1,820,000 in three of such cases and $6,000,000 in the fourth are alleged, none of
which has yet been tried.
DESCRIPTION OF COMMON STOCK
The following statements are brief summaries of certain provisions contained in the Certificate
of Incorporation and By-Laws, as amended, and certain provisions contained in indentures of the Com-
pany. Such statements do not purport to be complete, are subject in all respects to the full
provisions
of the documents mentioned, and, except as otherwise stated, do not relate to or give effect to
provisions
of statutory or common law.
Dividend Rights. Dividends may be declared and paid on the Common Stock after all accrued
dividends on the Preferred Stock have been paid, if in the judgment of the Board of Directors the
surplus or net profits are sufficient for such purpose after deducting such sum, if any, as shall
have
been reserved as working capital and the amount of dividends to accrue on the Preferred Stock during
the current year. The holders of the Preferred Stock, in preference to the holders of the Common
Stock,
are entitled to receive cumulative dividends at the rate of 7% per annum of the par value thereof.
Restrictions on Payment of Dividends. Certain restrictions on the payment of dividends on the
Common Stock are contained in the Indenture dated March 1, 1951, the Indenture dated April 1, 1953
and the Indenture dated June 1, 1961, under which Debentures were issued. Such restrictions prevent
the Company from making certain payments, including cash dividends upon its Common Stock, if the
aggregate of such payments made after a date specified in the applicable document would exceed by
more than an amount specified in such document the aggregate of (a) the consolidated net income of
the Company and its subsidiaries during the period from such date to the making of such payment and
(b) the proceeds of the sale of capital stock (other than, in the case of each Indenture except the
last-
mentioned, Common Stock which was being sold at the time such Indenture was being entered into).
At December 31, 1966, retained earnings available for dividends on Common Stock, under the most
stringent of those restrictions, was approximately $74,000,000.

875-P. Lorillard Company-P. E. Amend. No. 3 -Pandick Press, Inc -May 9, 1967
Voting Rights. Each holder of Common Stock is entitled to one vote for each share of Common
Stock held. Each holder of Preferred Stock is entitled to one vote for each share of Preferred Stock
held.
Liquidation Rights. In the event of any liquidation or dissolution or distribution of the assets of
the Company (whether voluntary or involuntary), after payment to the holders of the Preferred Stock
of par of $100 per share plus unpaid accumulated dividends, the holders of the Common Stock are
entitled to receive pro rata al] the remaining assets of the Company.
Other Rights and Provisions. Neither the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, nor the By-Laws
contain any provisions with respect to preemptive rights. In the opinion of New Jersey counsel, the
holders of Common Stock have preemptive rights with respect to the authorized and unissued shares
of Common Stock issued and sold for cash; provided, however, that preemptive rights may be denied

875-P. Lorillard Company-P. E. Amend. No. 3 -Pandick Press, Inc.-May 8, 1967
OPINION OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS
P. LORILLARD COMPANY:
We have examined the consolidated balance sheet of P. Lorillard Company and subsidiary
companies as of December 31, 1966 and the related statements of consolidated earnings and
consolidated
surplus for the five years then ended. Our examination was made in accordance with generally
accepted
auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other
auditing
procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances.
In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheet and statements of consolidated
earnings and consolidated surplus present fairly the financial position of the companies at December
31,
1966 and the results of their operations for the five years then ended, in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles applied on a basis consistent in all material respects.
