THE EVOLUTION OF NICOTINE

Cigarettes

Smokeless

Pouches

Snus

E-cig/Vape

Next Gen

Nicotine of choice for decades

Health warnings emerged in 1960's

Smoking restrictions introduced in 1970's

Smokers begin looking for more discrete alternatives to smoking that still satisfy.

No smoke = more discrete than smoking

Provided consumers with an option as smoking restrictions expanded

Many smokers didn't like the mouth feel or spitting associated with STP

STP oral health warnings issued in 1980's

More convenient and easier to use appealed to more smokers

More discrete than loose smokeless tobacco

More discrete than moist snuff/pouches

No spitting required

General snus was first product approved for Pre-Market Tobacco Product Application (PMTA) by FDA

First non-tobacco nicotine products emerge

Inhaled nicotine vapor, not tobacco

Vapor clouds still identify user as a smoker, less discrete than snus

Vape restrictions first appear in 2010's

Next gen products for consumers must be:

- Smokeless - Spitless - Discrete - Convenient - Tobacco Free - Recreational

Most importantly, next gen products must satisfy and meet a wide variety of consumer preferences

GOTHIATEK? - SWEDISH MATCH QUALITY STANDARD FOR SNUS

The "Swedish Experience" ? A "real world illustration" of tobacco harm reduction

? One component of the public health success of snus is that it is manufactured according to the GOTHIATEK? standard

GOTHIATEK? - the world?s strictest product standard for any tobacco product

? The standard was introduced in the year 2000

- Based on decades of research and development with consumer protection, product safety and openness as key targets

? Applicable to all Swedish Match Snus products ? The basis for Swedish Match ambition to

- Produce the best snus products

- Use the best manufacturing practices - Continue to improve the products - Maintain the lowest possible levels of undesirable constituents in snus

? Dynamic - continuous development

- Techniques and processes are improved

- New scientific data is made available

GOTHIATEK? STANDARD ? MAXIMUM LEVELS FOR SELECTED CONSTITUENTS

GOTHIATEK? requires that finished products

shall not exceed the maximum allowable

levels of certain harmful and potential

20

harmful constituents. These constituents

originate from the environment or from the

15

tobacco plant

The standard has over the years been

10

amended at several occasions: the range of

compounds has been expanded and the

maximum levels lowered
