FORWARD-LOOKING AND CAUTIONARY STATEMENTS
Some of the information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement and the attached prospectus contains forward-looking
statements. You can identify these forward-looking statements by use of words such as "strategy," "expects," "continues," "plans," "anticipates,"
"believes," "will," "estimates," "forecasts," "intends," "projects," "goals," "objectives," "guidance," "targets" and other words of similar meaning. You can
also identify them by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts.
We cannot guarantee that any forward-looking statement will be realized, although we believe we have been prudent in our plans, estimates and
assumptions. Achievement of future results is subject to risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may prove to be inaccurate. Should known or unknown
risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying estimates or assumptions prove inaccurate, actual results could vary materially from those
anticipated, estimated or projected. You should bear this in mind as you consider forward-looking statements and whether to invest in or remain invested
in the notes. In connection with the "safe harbor" provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, we are identifying important factors
in this prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated by reference that, individually or in the aggregate, could cause actual results and outcomes
to differ materially from those contained in, or implied by, any forward-looking statements made by us; any such statement is qualified by reference to
these cautionary statements. We elaborate on these and other risks we face in this prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated by reference,
including our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, which discusses certain risks we face related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The impact of the COVID-19
pandemic depends on factors beyond our knowledge or control, including the duration and severity of the outbreak and actions taken to contain its spread
and mitigate the public health effects. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may heighten the potential risks to our and our investees' businesses,
consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position described in the risk factors contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended December 31, 2019 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020. You should understand that it is not possible to
predict or identify all risk factors. Consequently, you should not consider risks discussed in this prospectus supplement and in the documents incorporated
by reference to be a complete discussion of all potential risks or uncertainties. We do not undertake to update any forward-looking statement that we may
make from time to time except as required by applicable law.

Conflicts of Interest
We intend to use the net proceeds from the sale of the notes in this offering for general
corporate purposes, as set forth in "Use of Proceeds." To the extent we use all or a portion of
the net proceeds to repay borrowings under our Revolving Credit Agreement, affiliates of
certain underwriters may receive at least 5% of the net offering proceeds in connection with
any such repayment. Accordingly, this offering is made in compliance with the requirements
of FINRA Rule 5121. Because the notes offered hereby have an investment grade rating, the
appointment of a qualified independent underwriter will not be necessary.

Trustee
Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas.

FINAL PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
Table of Contents
RISK FACTORS
An investment in the notes involves risks, including risks inherent in our business. You should carefully consider the following factors as well as
other information contained or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement before deciding to invest in the notes, including the factors listed
under "Risk Factors" in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the risk factors listed under "Risk
Factors" in Item 1A of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020, including the potential risks to our business,
consolidated results of operations, cash flows or financial position related to the COVID-19 pandemic, which Annual Report on Form 10-K and Quarterly
Report on Form 10-Q are incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement.
Risks Related to the Offering
Under certain circumstances, PM USA's guarantee of the notes will be released.
PM USA's guarantee of the notes will be released upon the earliest to occur of:

·
the date, if any, on which PM USA consolidates with or merges into us or any successor of us;

·
the date, if any, on which we or any successor consolidates with or merges into PM USA;

·
payment in full of the notes; and

·
the rating of our long-term senior unsecured debt by S&P of "A" or higher.
If PM USA is released from its guarantee of the notes, it will have no obligation to pay any amounts due on the notes or to provide us with funds for
the payment of our obligations. In addition, as described under "Description of Guarantees of Debt Securities--Amendment" in the attached prospectus, the
guarantee may be amended with the approval of the holders of more than 50% in aggregate principal amount of a series of notes.
In the event of the release of PM USA's guarantee, our right, as the equity holder of PM USA, to receive any assets of such subsidiary upon its
liquidation or reorganization, and therefore the right of the holders of the notes to participate in those assets, will be effectively subordinated to the claims
of PM USA's creditors, including trade creditors.
Federal and state statutes allow courts, under specific circumstances, to void guarantees and require noteholders to return payments received from
PM USA.
Under applicable provisions of federal bankruptcy law or comparable provisions of state fraudulent transfer law, PM USA's guarantee could be
voided, or claims in respect of PM USA's guarantee could be subordinated to the debts of PM USA, if, among other things, PM USA, at the time it
incurred the obligation evidenced by its guarantee:

·
received less than reasonably equivalent value or fair consideration therefor; and

·
either:

· was insolvent or rendered insolvent by reason of such occurrence;

· was engaged in a business or transaction for which the assets of PM USA constituted unreasonably small capital; or

· intended to incur, or believed that it would incur, debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature.
In addition, under such circumstances, the payment of amounts by PM USA pursuant to its guarantee could be voided and required to be returned to
PM USA, or to a fund for the benefit of PM USA, as the case may be.

S-8
Table of Contents
The measures of insolvency for purposes of the foregoing considerations will vary depending upon the law applied in any proceeding with respect to
the foregoing. Generally, however, PM USA would be considered insolvent if:

·
the sum of its debts, including contingent liabilities, was greater than the saleable value of its assets, all at a fair valuation;

·
the present fair saleable value of its assets was less than the amount that would be required to pay its probable liability on its existing debts,

including contingent liabilities, as they become absolute and mature; or

·
it could not pay its debts as they become due.
To the extent PM USA's guarantee is voided as a fraudulent conveyance or held unenforceable for any other reason, the holders of the notes would
not have any claim against PM USA and would be creditors solely of us.

FINAL PROSPECTUS SUPPLEMENT
The notes and the guarantee will be effectively junior to secured indebtedness that we or PM USA may issue in the future.
The notes and the guarantee are unsecured. Holders of any secured debt that we or PM USA may issue in the future may foreclose on the assets
securing such debt, reducing the cash flow from the foreclosed property available for payment of unsecured debt, including the notes. Holders of our or PM
USA's secured debt also would have priority over unsecured creditors in the event of our bankruptcy, liquidation or similar proceeding. As a result, the
notes will be effectively junior to any secured debt that we may issue in the future and the guarantee will be effectively junior to any secured debt that PM
USA may issue in the future.
We may not be able to repurchase all of the notes upon a change of control triggering event.
As described under "Description of Notes--Repurchase Upon Change of Control Triggering Event," we will be required to make an offer to
purchase the notes of a series upon the occurrence of a change of control triggering event with respect to such notes. We may not have sufficient funds to
repurchase such notes in cash at that time or have the ability to arrange necessary financing on acceptable terms. In addition, the terms of our other debt
agreements or applicable law may limit our ability to repurchase such notes for cash.
There is no public market for the notes, which could limit their market price or your ability to sell them.
The notes are a new issue of securities for which there currently is no trading market. As a result, we cannot provide any assurances that a market
will develop for the notes or that you will be able to sell your notes. If any of the notes are traded after their initial issuance, they may trade at a discount
from their initial offering price. Future trading prices of the notes will depend on many factors, including prevailing interest rates, the market for similar
securities, general economic conditions and our financial condition, performance and prospects. Accordingly, you may be required to bear the financial
risk of an investment in the notes for an indefinite period of time. We do not intend to apply for listing or quotation of the notes on any securities exchange
or automated quotation system, respectively.

USE OF PROCEEDS
We will receive net proceeds (after underwriting discount and before offering expenses) from this offering of approximately $1,979,592,500. We
intend to use the net proceeds (after expenses) from this offering for general corporate purposes, which may include the repayment of amounts outstanding
under our Revolving Credit Agreement.
As of May 4, 2020, $3.0 billion was outstanding under our Revolving Credit Agreement. In light of the current uncertainty in the global capital
markets, including the commercial paper markets, resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, we elected to borrow the entire amount available under our
Revolving Credit Agreement as a precautionary measure to increase our cash position and preserve financial flexibility.
All borrowings under our Revolving Credit Agreement mature on August 1, 2023, unless extended pursuant to the terms of our Revolving Credit
Agreement. At March 31, 2020, the interest rate for our current borrowings under our Revolving Credit Agreement was 2.23%. In addition, certain of the
underwriters or their affiliates act as lenders under our Revolving Credit Agreement. To the extent we use some or all of the net proceeds of this offering to
repay outstanding borrowings under our Revolving Credit Agreement, those underwriters or their affiliates may receive a portion of those proceeds.
If we do not use the proceeds immediately, we may temporarily invest them in short-term, interest-bearing investments.
