<div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     Due to RAI’s incorporation in North Carolina, which does not recognize treasury shares,
the shares repurchased are cancelled at the time of repurchase. During the first nine months of
2010, RAI purchased 89,048 shares that were forfeited with respect to tax liabilities associated
with restricted stock vesting under the LTIP, a plan which expired in 2009 and was replaced by the
Reynolds American Inc. 2009 Omnibus Incentive Compensation Plan, referred to as the Omnibus Plan.
</div>
<div align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">     On February 2, 2010, May 7, 2010 and July 15, 2010, RAI’s board of directors declared a
quarterly cash dividend of $0.90 per common share, or $3.60 on an annualized basis, to shareholders
of record as of March 10, 2010, June 10, 2010 and September 10, 2010, respectively.
