Costs Associated With Exit or Disposal Activities

On October 9, 2019, the Board of Directors of Pyxus International, Inc. (the Company) authorized a cost-saving initiative and
restructuring plan (the Plan) to cease tobacco processing operations of its Alliance One Tobacco Argentina, S.A. subsidiarys facility located in El Carril in the Province of Salta in Argentina, with tobacco processing in
Argentina to be provided by a third party. The Plan includes a reduction of headcount at this facility and the repurposing of the El Carril facility to receive and warehouse tobacco. Affected employees were first notified of the Plan on
December 9, 2019. The Plan is expected to be principally implemented over the next three months.
The Company estimates that the
total costs related to the Plan will be in the range of approximately $3.9 million to $6.4 million at current exchange rates, composed of severance expense in the range of approximately $3.5 million to $5.9 million and impairment
