EXECUTION VERSION

FIRST AMENDMENT dated as of July 21, 2023 (this “Amendment”), among THE KRAFT HEINZ COMPANY, a Delaware corporation (“Kraft Heinz”), KRAFT HEINZ FOODS COMPANY, a Pennsylvania limited liability company (the “Parent Borrower”), the LENDERS party hereto and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as Administrative Agent.

WHEREAS, reference is made to the Credit Agreement dated as of July 8, 2022 (the “Credit Agreement”), among Kraft Heinz, the Parent Borrower, the other Borrowers from time to time party thereto, the Lenders from time to time party hereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”), pursuant to which the Lenders have agreed to extend credit to the Borrowers on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein;

WHEREAS, the Parent Borrower has requested that the Credit Agreement be amended to, among other things, extend the Revolving Maturity Date to July 8, 2028;

WHEREAS, the Lenders party hereto, the Administrative Agent, each Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank are willing to amend the Credit Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein; and

WHEREAS, Kraft Heinz and the Parent Borrower appoint each of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., BofA Securities, Inc., Barclays Bank PLC, Citibank, N.A., Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Morgan Stanley Senior Funding, Inc., Royal Bank of Canada and Wells Fargo Securities, LLC to act as the revolving joint lead arrangers and revolving joint bookrunners for this Amendment and the extension of the Revolving Maturity Date contemplated hereby (in such capacities, the “Amendment Arrangers”).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained and other good and valuable consideration, the sufficiency and receipt of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein (including in the preamble and the recitals hereto) have the meanings assigned to them in the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 2. Revolving Maturity Date Extension. Each Person listed on Schedule 2.01 set forth on Annex A hereto (collectively, the “Extending Lenders”), each Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees that, on and as of the First Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), the term “Revolving Maturity Date” set forth in Section 1.01 of the Credit Agreement shall be modified to replace the phrase “the date that is five years after the Closing Date” in clause (a) of the definition of such term with “July 8, 2028”.

SECTION 3. Concerning Revolving Commitments. (a) The Extending Lender that is not a Lender immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment (such Extending Lender being referred to as the “New Lender”) agrees that, on and as of the First Amendment Effective Date, the New Lender will have a Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Commitment in an amount set forth opposite its name on Schedule 2.01 set forth on Annex


A hereto. On and as of the First Amendment Effective Date, (i) the New Lender shall become a party to, and a Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Lender under, the Credit Agreement, and shall be entitled to all the rights of, and benefits accruing to, Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Lenders under the Credit Agreement, and shall be bound by all agreements, acknowledgements and other obligations of Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Lenders under the Credit Agreement, and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, the New Lender hereby consents to the extension of the Revolving Maturity Date as set forth in Section 2 hereof. To the extent such consent is required pursuant to the Credit Agreement, each of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders and the Issuing Banks hereby approves the identity of the New Lender as a Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Lender.

(b) Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, on and as of First Amendment Effective Date, Schedule 2.01 set forth on Annex A hereto sets forth all the Revolving Commitments of all the Lenders (and no Person whose name does not appear on such schedule shall have, or shall be deemed to have, as of the First Amendment Effective Date, a Revolving Commitment under the Credit Agreement). Schedule 2.01 to the Credit Agreement is hereby replaced in its entirety with Schedule 2.01 set forth on Annex A hereto.

(c) Each party hereto acknowledges and agrees that, on the First Amendment Effective Date, the Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Percentages of the Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Lenders, and their respective Letter of Credit Exposures and Swingline Exposures, shall automatically be adjusted to give effect to Schedule 2.01 set forth on Annex A hereto. In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby further acknowledges and agrees that, as of the First Amendment Effective Date, no Person that was a Multicurrency Tranche Revolving Lender immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement but that is not an Extending Lender (such Person, a “Non-Extending Lender”) shall have any obligation in respect of any drawing under or participation in any Letter of Credit.

SECTION 4. Representations and Warranties. Each of Kraft Heinz and the Parent Borrower hereby represents and warrants that:

(a) The execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment are within the corporate or limited liability company powers of Kraft Heinz or the Parent Borrower, as applicable, and have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or limited liability company action on the part of Kraft Heinz or the Parent Borrower, as applicable. This amendment has been duly executed and delivered by Kraft Heinz and the Parent Borrower and is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Kraft Heinz and the Parent Borrower, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to enforceability, to general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law) and an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing.

(b) On and as of the First Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to this Amendment, the representations and warranties of Kraft Heinz and the Parent

(c) On and as of the First Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to this Amendment, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.
