         Dear [Name]:

         Enclosed is material on the LeBow/Icahn consent solicitation that
         should be helpful to you in understanding the issues involved.
         This material discusses -- among other things -- why there are
         significant litigation and company commitment issues in spinning
         Nabisco off right now; why we are committed to a spin-off of Nabisco at
         the right time; what the analysts are saying about the issues of
         spinning and the values created; and our insights into Messrs.
         LeBow and Icahn's motivations for the solicitation.

         Please do not hesitate to call me at (212) 258-5777 with questions
         or comments.  Many thanks for your attention and consideration.

                                       Sincerely,


                                       /s/ Huntley R. Whitacre
