2.1 Bottler, CCR and Company hereby agree that all of the then existing Bottling Agreements in all of the Legacy Territory, Lead Market Territories and Next Phase Territory will automatically be deemed converted to a CBA that amends, restates and supersedes all such Bottling Agreements and covers all such territories (“CBA Conversion”), if all of the transactions contemplated in the Next Phase Territory Transaction Agreement are consummated and any of the following events occur:

(a) all of the Subsequent Phase Territory Transactions are consummated (in which case the CBA Conversion would occur on the date the last of such transactions is consummated); or

(b) Company is willing to enter into the Subsequent Phase Territory Transactions (and enter into the CBA), and has continued in good faith to engage in discussions with respect thereto with Bottler, on terms and conditions that are consistent with the terms and conditions applicable to the grant of the Next Phase Territory (including those contained in the Next Phase Territory Transaction Agreement), but Bottler either (i) fails to engage in good faith discussions regarding the Subsequent Phase Territory Transactions on such terms; or (ii) notifies Company in writing that Bottler no longer intends to pursue the acquisition of the Subsequent Phase Territory (in which case the CBA Conversion would occur thirty (30) days after the earlier of Bottler’s termination of good faith discussions or Bottler’s delivery of written notice to Company that Bottler no longer intends to pursue the acquisition of the Subsequent Phase Territory); or

(c) all of the Subsequent Phase Territory Transactions are not consummated by January 1, 2020 for any reason other than (i) Company’s or CCR’s failure, on or prior to June 30, 2018, to offer in writing to consummate the Subsequent Phase Territory Transactions on terms and conditions that are consistent with the terms and conditions applicable to the granting of the Next Phase Territory (including those contained in the Next Phase Territory Transaction Agreement), and to enter into the CBA, or (ii) Company’s or CCR’s written withdrawal of such offer prior to consummation of the Subsequent Phase Territory Transactions (in which case the CBA Conversion would occur on January 1, 2020). If any of the events described in Section 2.1(c)(i) or Section 2.1(c)(ii) occur, no CBA Conversion will occur unless otherwise specifically agreed in writing by Company, Bottler and CCR.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Bottler may, in its sole discretion, elect for the CBA Conversion to occur at any time after the date hereof, by delivering written notice of such election to Company no less than thirty (30) days prior to the date such CBA Conversion will become effective.

2.2 In connection with the CBA Conversion as it applies to the Legacy Territory, Company will cause CCR to pay a fee to Bottler in cash (or another mutually agreed form of payment or credit) an amount that is equivalent to 0.5X EBITDA solely with respect to (i) sales in such Legacy Territory of Beverages (as defined in the CBA) distinguished by trademarks owned by Company or one of its Affiliates or licensed to Company or one of its Affiliates and

sublicensed to Bottler, and (ii) sales in such Legacy Territory of Beverages distinguished by trademarks owned by or licensed to Monster Energy Company (together with its successors or assigns) on which Bottler pays and Company receives a facilitation fee, in each case measured using the twelve month period ending on the fiscal quarter most recently completed on or immediately prior to the CBA Conversion which amount shall be payable at the time the CBA Conversion occurs. No amounts will be paid or credited with respect to conversion of Bottling Agreements with respect to Lead Market Territories or the Next Phase Territory.

2.3 Upon occurrence of the CBA Conversion, Bottler, Company and CCR will execute the CBA and take all other actions necessary to implement the CBA. Without limiting the foregoing, Bottler and Company acknowledge that certain Bottling Agreements are held by Piedmont Coca-Cola Bottling Partnership, a general partnership between Bottler and Company (“Piedmont Bottling”), and by CCBC of Wilmington, Inc. (“CCBC Wilmington”), which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Piedmont Bottling. Company and Bottler will take such actions as are reasonably necessary to implement the CBA Conversion with respect to any Bottling Agreements held by Piedmont Bottling or CCBC Wilmington, including the execution by such entities of a CBA for their respective territories and the payment to such entities by Company of the payment described in Section 2.2 with respect to the CBA Conversion of such Bottling Agreements.

2.4 Bottler may, in its sole discretion, elect for the Bottling Agreements in the Exchange Territory to convert to a CBA that amends, restates, and supersedes such Bottling Agreements by giving Company and CCR at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of such election. In connection with any such conversion, Company will cause CCR to pay a fee to Bottler in cash (or another mutually agreed form of payment) an amount that is equivalent to 0.5X EBITDA for such Exchange Territory measured using the twelve month period ending on the fiscal quarter most recently completed on or immediately prior to such conversion which amount shall be payable at the time such conversion occurs.

4. REMEDIES FOR BREACH.

4.1 Company and Bottler agree that the remedies at law for any actual or threatened breach by the other party of the covenants in this Agreement would be inadequate and that the non-breaching party shall be entitled to specific performance of the covenants in this Agreement, including entry of an ex parte, temporary restraining order in state or federal court, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against activities in violation of this Agreement, or both, or other appropriate judicial remedy, writ or order, in addition to any damages and legal expenses that the non-breaching may be legally entitled to recover.

If Company discontinues a Covered Beverage or Related Product as contemplated under Section 9.2, then Bottler will have the right to continue to market, promote, distribute and sell unused inventories of the discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product in the Territory in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement for a period not to exceed the earlier of the expiration date of such Covered Beverage or Related Product or six (6) months following Bottler’s receipt of Notice of the discontinuation of such Covered Beverage or Related Product.

9.4. If Company proposes to reintroduce any such discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product (or reintroduce a Line Extension of a Covered Beverage or Related Product that is a discontinued Covered Beverage or discontinued Related Product) through any channel of retail distribution and sale in the United States of America, such product shall first be offered to Bottler under Section 7.1.3.

Such reintroduced product may not, however, be designated by Company as a Multiple Route to Market Beverage or a Multiple Route to Market Related Product.

15

9.5. If Company discontinues any Covered Beverage or Related Product and Company or one of its Affiliates subsequently wishes to transfer, assign or sell its rights in and to such discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product (a “Transfer”) to a third party that is not an Affiliate of Company (a “Transferee”) within twelve (12) months following the later of (a) the date on which Company (through a Company Owned Distributor or otherwise) ceases distribution of a Covered Beverage or Related Product in all SKUs and packages and through all means of distribution, or (b) the expiration of the six (6) month period Bottler has to sell unused inventories of the discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product, then Company (or its Affiliate) must first offer to Bottler the right to continue to distribute such discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product as a New Beverage Product under Section 7.1.3.

9.5.1. If Bottler elects to continue distributing such discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product, then Company (or its Affiliate) must Transfer such discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product to the Transferee subject to Bottler’s distribution rights under this Agreement with respect to such discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product (as if the Covered Beverage or Related Product had not been discontinued). In that event, Bottler’s distribution rights with respect to the discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product will be binding upon the Transferee.

9.6. Bottler has the right to discontinue the marketing, promotion, distribution and sale, on a temporary or permanent basis, in all of the Territory, of any Covered Beverage or Related Product (or any Line Extension, SKU or package for a Covered Beverage or Related Product) that is not a Mandated Beverage or Mandated Related Product.

9.6.1. This right must be exercised by Bottler, if at all, by giving ninety (90) days’ prior Notice to Company of such discontinuation, specifying that the Notice of discontinuation applies to all of the Territory.

9.6.2. Upon expiration of such ninety (90) day period, Bottler may cease the marketing, promotion, distribution, and sale of the discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product (or Line Extension, SKU or package for a Covered Beverage or Related Product) in all of the Territory, and, if Bottler is discontinuing distribution of all Line Extensions, SKUs and packages of a Covered Beverage or Related Product, Exhibit A or Exhibit F will be deemed automatically amended by deleting the discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product from the list of Covered Beverages or Related Products, as applicable.

9.6.3. If (and only if) Bottler discontinues all Line Extensions, SKUs and packages of a Covered Beverage or Related Product under this Section 9.6, Company may distribute and sell the discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product in the Territory or authorize any of its Affiliates or others to do so.

9.7. Bottler has the right to discontinue the marketing, promotion, distribution and sale of any Line Extension, SKU or package (other than a Mandated Beverage or Mandated Related Product) in any portion of the Territory without providing prior Notice to Company.

16

9.7.1. In that event, Company may not distribute or sell the discontinued Line Extension, SKU or package in the Territory or authorize any of its Affiliates or others to do so unless Bottler has discontinued all Line Extensions, SKUs and packages of the Covered Beverage or Related Product.

9.7.2. If Bottler discontinues some (but not all) Line Extensions, SKUs or packages for a Covered Beverage or Related Product, then Bottler may thereafter reinstate the discontinued Line Extension, SKU or package.

9.8. If Company Transfers one or more Covered Beverages or Related Products to a Transferee, Company must Transfer such Covered Beverage(s) or Related Product(s) to the Transferee subject to Bottler’s distribution rights and trademark license under Sections 3.1 through 3.4 and Sections 5.1 through 5.4 of this Agreement. Bottler’s distribution rights and trademark license for such Transferred Covered Beverage(s) or Related Product(s) (and, in each case, for all future Line Extensions, SKUs or packages thereof) will be binding upon the Transferee. The following provisions of this Agreement will apply to Bottler’s continuing distribution of the Transferred Covered Beverages or Related Products: Section 9.1, Section 9.2 (except that the requirement in Section 9.2 that all Covered Beverages under this Agreement may not be discontinued will not apply to the Transferee), Section 9.7, Section 10, Section 14.6, Section 14.9, Section 15, Section 18, Section 19, Section 20, Section 21, Section 22.1.1, Section 22.1.2, Section 22.1.3, Section 22.1.8, Section 23 (to the extent relevant to Sections 22.1.1, 22.1.2, 22.1.3 and 21.1.8), Sections 27 through 34, Sections 36 through 40.3, and Section 42 (and such provisions will be binding upon Bottler and the Transferee of the Transferred Covered Beverages or Related Products). Company will require that the Transferee enter into good faith negotiations with Bottler regarding such other terms and conditions that Bottler or Transferee reasonably believe to be necessary to a new distribution agreement with respect to such Transferred Covered Beverage(s) or Related Product(s), including with respect to choice of law, venue, and dispute resolution, under which Bottler will continue to distribute the Transferred Covered Beverages or Related Products. Bottler will negotiate in good faith with the Transferee regarding the terms of such new distribution agreement with Transferee, consistent with the provisions of this Section 9.8. If Company Transfers any Covered Beverage or Related Product to a Transferee, Exhibit A or Exhibit F, as applicable, will be deemed automatically amended by deleting the Transferred Covered Beverage or Related Product from the list of Covered Beverages or Related Products, and Schedule 2.32 will be deemed automatically amended by adding such Transferred Covered Beverage or Related Product to the list of Permitted Beverage Products.

10. TERRITORIAL LIMITATIONS AND TRANSSHIPPING

10.1. Bottler recognizes that Company has entered into or may enter into agreements relating to the Covered Beverages and Related Products with other parties outside the Territory, and Bottler accepts the territorial limitations in this Agreement imposed on Bottler in the conduct of its business under this Agreement. Bottler agrees to make every reasonable effort to settle amicably any disputes that arise with such other parties.

10.2. Bottler must not distribute or sell any Covered Beverages or Related Products (a) outside of the Territory or (b) to any Person if Bottler knows or should know that such Person will redistribute the Covered Beverages or Related Products for ultimate sale outside the Territory.

17

10.2.1. If any Covered Beverages or Related Products distributed or sold by Bottler are found in the territory of another U.S. Coca-Cola Bottler, including a Company Owned Distributor (the “Injured Bottler”), then Bottler shall be deemed to have transshipped such Covered Beverage or Related Product and shall be deemed to be a “Transshipping Bottler” for purposes of this Agreement; provided, however, that if the Injured Bottler (other than a Company Owned Distributor) has not agreed to terms substantially similar to this Section 10.2 with respect to the transshipment of Covered Beverages or Related Products, Bottler shall only be deemed to be a “Transshipping Bottler” if (a) Bottler distributes or sells Covered Beverages or Related Products outside of the Territory, or (b) Bottler sells Covered Beverages or Related Products to a purchaser that Bottler knew or should have known would redistribute the Covered Beverage or Related Product outside of the Territory.

10.2.2. If any Covered Beverages or Related Products (or any other products identified by the primary Trademark that also identifies any of the Covered Beverages or Related Products or any modification of such Trademark (i.e., the addition of a prefix, suffix or other modifier used in conjunction with any such Trademark)) distributed or sold by another U.S. Coca-Cola Bottler (including a Company Owned Distributor) are found in Bottler’s Territory, then Bottler shall be referred to herein as the “Injured Bottler” and such other U.S. Coca-Cola Bottler shall be referred to herein as the “Transshipping Bottler”; provided, however, that if the bottler that distributed or sold such products (other than a Company Owned Distributor) has not agreed to terms substantially similar to this Section 10.2 with respect to the transshipment of Company’s products, Bottler will only be deemed to be an “Injured Bottler” if such bottler (a) distributes or sells such products in the Territory or (b) knew or should have known that the purchaser would redistribute the products outside of such bottler’s territory prior to ultimate sale.

10.2.3. If Company does not have sufficient contractual rights to fully implement the transshipping remedies provided for in this Section 10.2, Company will nevertheless use reasonable efforts to enforce its transshipping policy against the Transshipping Bottler to (a) prevent future transshipments, and (b) cause the Transshipping Bottler to compensate Bottler to the extent possible.

10.2.4. Bottler will only be an Injured Bottler if the product transshipped into Bottler’s Territory is a Covered Beverage or Related Product (or any other product that is identified by the primary Trademark that also identifies any of the Covered Beverages or Related Products or any modification of such trademark (i.e., the addition of a prefix, suffix or other modifier used in conjunction with any such trademark)).

10.2.5. Company may require Transshipping Bottler and/or Injured Bottler, as the case may be, to make available to representatives of Company all sales agreements and other records relating to the Covered Beverages or Related Products and assist Company in all investigations relating to the distribution and sale of Covered Beverages or Related Products outside Transshipping Bottler’s territory or to the transshipment of products by another bottler into Injured Bottler’s territory.

18

10.2.6. In addition to all other remedies Company may have against Transshipping Bottler for violation of this Section 10.2, Company, in the case where both the Transshipping Bottler and the Injured Bottler are Expanding Participating Bottlers (or an Expanding Participating Bottler and a Company Owned Distributor), will use commercially reasonable good faith efforts, and in all other cases may determine, in its sole discretion, to:

10.2.6.1. charge any Transshipping Bottler an amount equal to three (3) times the Injured Bottler’s most current average gross profit margin per case for all cases sold across all channels of the Covered Beverage or Related Product transshipped, as reasonably estimated by Company. Injured Bottler shall provide Company with any supporting documentation reasonably requested by Company; and/or

10.2.6.2. purchase any of the Covered Beverages or Related Products distributed or sold by Transshipping Bottler found in the Injured Bottler’s territory, and Transshipping Bottler will, in addition to any other obligation it may have under this Agreement, reimburse Company for Company’s cost of purchasing, transporting and/or destroying such Covered Beverages or Related Products.

10.2.7. Bottler and Company acknowledge and agree that the amounts provided for under Section 10.2.6 reasonably reflect the damages to Company, the Injured Bottler, and the Coca-Cola system.

10.2.8. Transshipping Bottler must promptly pay to Company all amounts charged by Company pursuant to Section 10.2.6. The Injured Bottler will be paid when Company has received payment from Transshipping Bottler. If Company recovers payment from the Transshipping Bottler under Section 10.2.6.1, the Injured Bottler will be paid an amount not less than seventy percent (70%) of such amount recovered by Company.

10.2.9. Company has the right to collect any amounts payable by Transshipping Bottler under Section 10.2.6 by offset against any undisputed amounts otherwise payable to Transshipping Bottler by Company.

10.3. Bottler must create, implement and monitor an internal anti-transshipment compliance policy and will provide such policy to Company for review and approval. Company will have the right to audit Bottler’s compliance with the policy.

10.4. If Company determines that a customer of Bottler has repeatedly transshipped Covered Beverages or Related Products outside of the Territory, Company may require that Bottler develop and implement a remediation plan that will address and resolve the issue. Bottler will submit the remediation plan to Company for review and approval, and, once approved by Company, Bottler will implement the plan.

19

11. ADDITIONAL TERRITORIES

11.1. If Bottler acquires the right to distribute under direct authorization from Company any of the Covered Beverages or Related Products in any territory in the United States of America outside of the Territory, then, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Company and Bottler, such additional territory will automatically be deemed to be included within the First-Line Territory covered under this Agreement for all purposes, and Exhibit C-1 will be automatically amended to add such additional territory to the First-Line Territory identified in Exhibit C-1.

11.2. If Bottler acquires the right to distribute under authorization from CCR or another Company Owned Distributor any of the Covered Beverages or Related Products in any territory in the United States of America outside of the Territory, then, unless otherwise agreed in writing by Company and Bottler, such additional territory will automatically be deemed to be included within the Sub-Bottling Territory covered under this Agreement for all purposes, and Exhibit C-2 will be automatically amended to add such additional territory to the Sub-Bottling Territory identified in Exhibit C-2.

11.3. Any separate agreement that may exist concerning such distribution and sale in such additional territory will be deemed terminated and superseded by this Agreement.

11.4. The parties agree to cooperate in taking such other actions as may reasonably be required to further document any amendments and modifications resulting from the foregoing.

12. EFFECT OF NEW OR AMENDED AUTHORIZATION AGREEMENTS WITH OTHER EXPANDING PARTICIPATING BOTTLERS

12.1. If Company or a Company Affiliate on or after December 31, 2013 (a) enters into a new authorization agreement to market, promote, distribute and sell Covered Beverages and Related Products in territories in the United States of America with another Expanding Participating Bottler that is more favorable to such other Expanding Participating Bottler than the terms and conditions of this Agreement in any material respect, or (b) agrees to an amendment of the terms of an existing authorization agreement to market, promote, distribute and sell Covered Beverages and Related Products in territories in the United States with another Expanding Participating Bottler that is more favorable to such other Expanding Participating Bottler than the terms and conditions of this Agreement in any material respect, then Company will offer such other new agreement or amended agreement, as the case may be (collectively, the “New Agreement”), in its entirety to such Bottler. If the New Agreement relates to less than all of the Covered Beverages and Related Products, then the agreement or amendment offered to Bottler under this Section 12.1 will cover only those Covered Beverages and Related Products covered by the New Agreement.

12.2. The obligation under Section 12.1 shall not apply to any consent, waiver or approval provided under this Agreement or under any agreement held by another Expanding Participating Bottler or to any amendment of this Agreement (or any similar agreement) in accordance with Section 24.4.3 of this Agreement (or in accordance with any similar provision in any similar agreement).

12.3. Nothing in this Section 12 will affect Company’s obligation under Section 16.5 that the “price” charged by Company or its Affiliate for any Covered Beverage or Related Product will not exceed the “price” charged by Company or its Affiliate for such Covered Beverage or Related Product to any other Expanding Participating Bottler or Company Owned Distributor in the United States.

20

12.4. The parties agree to cooperate in taking such other actions as may reasonably be required to further document any amendments and modifications resulting from the foregoing.

13. OBLIGATIONS OF BOTTLER AS TO OTHER BEVERAGE PRODUCTS AND OTHER BUSINESS ACTIVITIES

13.1. Bottler covenants and agrees (subject to any requirements imposed upon Bottler under applicable law) not to produce, manufacture, prepare, package, distribute, sell, deal in or otherwise use or handle any Beverage, Beverage Component, or other beverage product except for:

13.1.1. Covered Beverages and Related Products, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Related Agreement;

13.1.2. Permitted Beverage Products;

13.1.3. Beverages (including Incubation Beverages), Beverage Components and other beverage products, if and to the extent (a) required for Bottler or any of its Affiliates to comply with its obligations under any separate written agreement with Company or any of Company’s Affiliates, or (b) otherwise requested by Company or any of its Affiliates; and

13.1.4. Beverages, Beverage Components and other beverage products to the extent handled, distributed or sold by Bottler or any of its Affiliates solely in connection with a Permitted Ancillary Business. For avoidance of doubt, the parties acknowledge that a Beverage, Beverage Component or other beverage product will not constitute a Permitted Beverage Product unless it is specifically identified as a Permitted Beverage Product in Schedule 2.32. If Bottler distributes, sells, or handles a Beverage, Beverage Component, or other beverage product, other than a (i) Covered Beverage, (ii) Related Product, or (iii) Permitted Beverage Product identified in Schedule 2.32, as part of a Permitted Ancillary Business that is specifically identified in Schedule 2.31, then Bottler will, as applicable, be permitted to distribute, sell, or handle that Beverage, Beverage Component or other beverage product subject to any limitations specified in Schedule 2.31, solely as part of such Permitted Ancillary Business, and not for any other purpose. The fact that Bottler distributes sells, deals in or handles a Beverage, Beverage Component or other beverage product as part of a Permitted Ancillary Business will not, itself, make that Beverage, Beverage Component or other beverage product a Permitted Beverage Product.

13.2. Bottler covenants and agrees not to produce, manufacture, prepare, package, distribute, sell, deal in or otherwise use or handle:

13.2.1. any Beverage, Beverage Component or other beverage product that is likely to be confused with or passed off for any of the Covered Beverages or Related Products or any Beverage Component for any Covered Beverage or Related Product;

13.2.2. during the Term and for an additional period of two (2) years following expiration or termination of this Agreement, (a) any Beverage, Beverage Component or other beverage product the name of which includes the word “cola” (whether alone or in conjunction with any other word or words) or any phonetic equivalent thereof, or (b)

21

any Beverage, Beverage Component or other beverage product that is an imitation of any of the Covered Beverages or Related Products (or of any Beverage Component for any Covered Beverage or Related Product) as of the expiration or termination of this Agreement, or is likely to be substituted for any of such Covered Beverages or Related Products (or for any such Beverage Component);

13.2.3. any product that uses any trade dress or any container that (a) is an imitation, infringement or dilution of, or (b) is likely to be confused with, be perceived by consumers as confusingly similar to, be passed off as, or cause dilution of, any trade dress or container in which Company claims a proprietary right or interest;

13.2.4. any product that (a) uses any trademark or other designation that is an imitation, counterfeit, copy, infringement or dilution of, or confusingly similar to any of the Trademarks, or (b) is likely to be passed off as a product of Company because of Bottler’s association with the business of distributing and selling the Covered Beverages and Related Products.

13.3. Bottler covenants and agrees not to acquire or hold directly or indirectly through any Affiliate, whether located within or outside of the Territory, any ownership interest in any Person that engages in any of the activities prohibited under Section 13.1 or Section 13.2; or enter into any contract or arrangement with respect to the management or control of any Person, within or outside of the Territory, that would enable Bottler or any Affiliate of Bottler acting collectively with such Person to engage indirectly in any of the activities prohibited under Section 13.1 or Section 13.2.

13.3.1. Bottler and its Affiliates will, however, be permitted to acquire and own securities registered pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or registered for public sale under similar laws of a foreign country, of a company that engages in any of the activities prohibited under Section 13.1 or Section 13.2, in pension, retirement, annuity, life insurance, and estate planning accounts, plans and funds administered by Bottler or any of its Affiliates for the benefit of employees, officers, shareholders or directors of Bottler or any of its Affiliates where investment decisions involving such securities are made by independent outside investment or fund managers that are not Affiliates of Bottler; provided that such ownership represents a passive investment and that neither Bottler nor any Affiliate of Bottler in any way, either directly or indirectly, manages or exercises control of such company, guarantees any of its financial obligations, consults with, advises, or otherwise takes any part in its business (other than exercising rights as a shareholder), or seeks to do any of the foregoing.

13.4. Bottler covenants and agrees that neither Bottler nor its Affiliates will use delivery vehicles, cases, cartons, coolers, vending machines or other equipment bearing Company’s Trademarks in connection with, or assign personnel or management whose primary duties relate to delivery or sales of Covered Beverages or Related Products (other than executive officers of Bottler) to, any line of business other than the marketing, promotion, distribution, and sale of Covered Beverages, Related Products and Permitted Beverage Products; provided, however, that:

22

13.4.1. any of Bottler’s assets and personnel or management whose primary duties relate to delivery or sales of Covered Beverages or Related Products may be used in a Permitted Ancillary Business, subject to any limitations specified in Schedule 2.31, or a Permitted Line of Business, subject to any limitations specified in Schedule 2.33, anywhere within (or, as applicable, outside of) Bottler’s Territory without further approvals from Company; and

13.4.2. Company and Bottler acknowledge that to meet competition Bottler may from time to time be required to agree to deliver a de minimis volume of non-alcoholic beverage products and/or other consumable products that would otherwise be prohibited by Sections 13.1, 13.2 or 13.4 to certain local, on-premise vending, cafeteria and workplace customers that offer a contract for the supply of all such beverage and consumable products that are delivered to a particular location (e.g., a vending machine, office location, arena, or on-premise employee store).

13.4.2.1. In such circumstances, Bottler agrees to use best efforts to comply with Sections 13.1, 13.2 and 13.4.

13.4.2.2. Company consents to delivery by Bottler of such de minimis volume of such products to such customers to the extent that, despite Bottler’s best efforts to satisfy customer demand for Covered Beverages and Related Products consistent with Sections 13.1, 13.2 and 13.4, such customers nonetheless require such delivery by Bottler to meet competition.

13.4.2.3. For each such instance, if requested by Company, Bottler agrees to provide to Company such information as may reasonably be requested by Company so that Company can assess Bottler’s compliance with this Section 13.4.2 (including information regarding the nature of the competitive threat and the volumes of product involved).

14. OBLIGATIONS OF BOTTLER RELATIVE TO MARKETING, PROMOTION, DISTRIBUTION, SALES, SYSTEM GOVERNANCE, PURCHASING, MANAGEMENT, REPORTING AND PLANNING ACTIVITIES

14.1. Bottler will market, promote, distribute and sell Covered Beverages and Related Products in the Territory, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and buy exclusively from Company (directly or through its Affiliate), or from Company Authorized Suppliers, in accordance with the terms and conditions of one or more Finished Goods Supply Agreements, Covered Beverages and Related Products in the quantities required to satisfy fully the demand for the Covered Beverages and Related Products in the Territory.

14.2. Bottler will comply with the Volume Per Capita performance standards stated in this Section 14.2.

14.2.1. For purposes hereof:

14.2.1.1. “Measurement Period” means one (1) calendar year (i.e., January 1st through December 31st).

23

14.2.1.2. “Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita” means the total aggregated volume of 192 ounce equivalent cases of all Covered Beverages sold in a bottler territory divided by the population for such territory as determined based on the then most current information published by the United States Census Bureau.

14.2.1.3. “Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita Change Rate” means the percentage change obtained by dividing (a) the Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita for a given Measurement Period, by (b) the Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita for the immediately preceding Measurement Period. For example, if the Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita for period 1 is 100 and the Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita for period 2 is 105, the percentage change would be 105/100 = 1.05 or 5%.

14.2.2. For each Measurement Period during the Term, Bottler will ensure that Bottler’s annual Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita Change Rate is not less than 1 standard deviation below the median of the annual Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita Change Rates for all U.S. Coca-Cola Bottlers during that Measurement Period.

14.2.3. Such performance will be measured on an annual basis and calculated using the Median Absolute Deviation methodology as set forth in Schedule 14.2.

14.2.4. The first Measurement Period will commence with the first full calendar year following the first anniversary of the Effective Date.

14.2.5. As soon as practicable following the end of a Measurement Period (but in no event later than the end of the first calendar quarter following the Measurement Period), Company will provide Notice to Bottler specifying whether or not Bottler satisfied its obligations under this Section 14.2 in such Measurement Period.

14.2.6. Failure to satisfy the obligations under this Section 14.2 in any single given Measurement Period (other than the Volume Per Capita Cure Period defined in Section 14.2.7) shall not be considered a breach or default under this Agreement.

14.2.7. If Bottler fails to satisfy its obligations under this Section 14.2 for two (2) consecutive Measurement Periods, Company will provide Notice to Bottler (a “Volume Per Capita Performance Notice”) as soon as practicable following the end of the second of such two (2) consecutive Measurement Periods (but in no event later than the end of the first calendar quarter following the second consecutive Measurement Period), and Bottler will have the right to cure during the twelve (12) month period beginning on July 1 following Bottler’s receipt of the Volume Per Capita Performance Notice (the “Volume Per Capita Cure Period”), by achieving an Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita Change Rate for the Volume Per Capita Cure Period that is not less than 1 standard deviation below the median of the Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita Change Rates for all U.S. Coca-Cola Bottlers for such period (“Volume Per Capita Cure Requirement”).

24

14.2.8. If Bottler fails to satisfy the Volume Per Capita Cure Requirement, Bottler will be deemed in breach of its obligations under Section 14.2.

14.2.9. Company’s sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of this Section 14.2 will be termination of this Agreement under Section 22. If Company wishes to exercise its right to terminate under Section 22 based upon a breach of this Section 14.2, then Company must provide Bottler with Notice of termination within twelve (12) months following the end of the Volume Per Capita Cure Period.

14.2.10. Company will, at Bottler’s request, provide to an independent third party mutually agreed upon by Bottler and Company the data reasonably necessary to confirm Bottler’s compliance with (or failure to comply with) its obligations under this Section 14.2, subject to the provisions of Section 42 and any confidentiality obligations to other U.S. Coca-Cola Bottlers. Company will provide data regarding other U.S. Coca-Cola Bottlers’ performance only on an anonymous basis (i.e., data will not be identified with or linked to any particular bottler). Bottler further acknowledges that its performance data will be provided to other U.S. Coca-Cola Bottlers that are parties to an agreement with provisions substantially similar to this Section 14.2, subject to the same limitations as this Section 14.2.

14.2.11. If the number of U.S. Coca-Cola Bottlers whose data is used to compute the annual Equivalent Case Volume Per Capita Change Rates for all U.S. Coca-Cola Bottlers for any Measurement Period is less than fifteen (15), then Bottler and Company will consider in good faith any modifications to this Section 14.2 necessary to take into account the smaller sample size. The provisions of this Section 14.2 will continue to apply unless and until Bottler and Company mutually agree upon any such revisions.

14.3. Bottler will participate fully in, and comply fully with, operating, customer, commercial, pricing, sales, merchandizing, planning, and other requirements and programs established from time to time by the Governance Board.

14.4. Bottler will provide competent and well-trained management and recruit, train, maintain and direct all personnel as required to perform all of Bottler’s obligations under this Agreement, and, in accordance with any requirements imposed upon Bottler under applicable laws, consult with Company, as applicable, before hiring a new Chief Executive Officer, senior operating officer, senior financial officer, or senior commercial officer of Bottler; provided however, that Company’s consent will not be required with respect to such hiring decisions made by Bottler.

14.5. Bottler will make capital expenditures (as defined under generally accepted accounting principles in force in the United States of America), in Bottler’s business of marketing, promoting, distributing, and selling Covered Beverages and Related Products in the Territory, in amounts equal to the greater of (a) two percent (2%) of Bottler’s Annual Net Revenue related to the distribution and sale of Covered Beverages and Related Products over each rolling five-calendar year period during the Term, or (b) such other amount as reasonably required for Bottler to comply with its obligations under this Agreement. Such capital expenditures will be for the organization, installation, operation, maintenance and replacement within the Territory of such warehousing, distribution, delivery, transportation, vending equipment, merchandising equipment, and other facilities, infrastructure, assets, and equipment.

25

14.5.1. For this purpose,

14.5.1.1. Capital expenditures will be calculated on a cash (rather than accrual) basis (i.e., it will be assumed that all such capitalized expenditures are expensed in the year made rather than capitalized and amortized).

14.5.1.2. “Bottler’s Annual Net Revenue” means, for each Bottler fiscal year, all revenue to Bottler on sales of Covered Beverages and Related Products plus all full service vending income plus all agency or other delivery fees minus customer discounts, allowances, and deductions for early payment minus full service vending commissions minus applicable sales taxes.

14.5.1.3. A “rolling five-calendar year period” will consist of any period of five (5) consecutive calendar years (e.g., calendar years 2014 through 2018 would constitute a rolling five-calendar year period, and calendar years 2015 through 2019 would constitute the next rolling five-calendar year period).

14.6. Bottler will budget and spend such funds for its own account for marketing and promoting the Covered Beverages and Related Products as reasonably required to create, stimulate and sustain the demand for the Covered Beverages and Related Products in the Territory, provided that Bottler must use, publish, maintain or distribute only such advertising, marketing, promotional or other materials relating to the Covered Beverages or the Related Products that are in accordance with standards adopted and issued by Company from time to time or that Company has otherwise approved or authorized. Company may agree from time to time to contribute financially to Bottler’s marketing programs, subject to such terms and conditions as Company may establish from time to time. Company may also undertake, and at its own expense and independently from Bottler, any additional advertising, marketing or promotional activities in the Territory that Company deems useful or appropriate.

14.7. In addition to the minimum requirements set forth in Section 14.1 through Section 14.6, Bottler will use all approved means as may be reasonably necessary to meet the continuing responsibility of Bottler to develop and stimulate and satisfy fully the demand for Covered Beverages and Related Products within the Territory, and maintain the consolidated financial capacity reasonably necessary to assure that Bottler and all Bottler Affiliates will be financially able to perform their respective duties and obligations under this Agreement.

14.8. Bottler will provide to Company each year and review with Company an annual and long range operating plan and budget for the Business, as defined in Section 24.1, including financials and capital investment budgets, and, if requested by Company, discuss changes in general management and senior management of the Business, except to the extent otherwise prohibited by applicable law.

26

24.4.1. At any time and from time to time during the Term, Bottler may, at Bottler’s sole discretion, provide Company with Notice that Bottler wishes to enter into a Sale Transaction, but that Bottler has not identified an Approved Potential Buyer or has not reached terms with an Approved Potential Buyer that are acceptable to Bottler (an “Exit Notice”). Bottler’s delivery of an Exit Notice will not preclude Bottler from delivering an Approved Buyer Sale Notice and pursuing both alternatives at the same time.

24.4.1.1. The Exit Notice will include the material terms and conditions (including price and form of consideration) of the proposed Sale Transaction by Bottler. Bottler will deliver the Exit Notice in writing to Company’s Chief Financial Officer, with a copy to Company’s General Counsel.

24.4.1.2. The Exit Notice will include the following unaudited written management information (to the extent that it is in Bottler’s possession or control and is ordinarily and customarily produced and used by Bottler for each of the three (3) year periods ending on the last day of the quarter preceding the date of the delivery of the Exit Notice): (a) revenues with respect to the Business for the relevant period then ended in both dollars and cases; (b) statements of income down to the contribution margin level for the Covered Beverages and Related Products for the relevant period then ended; (c) most current management bills of cost for each of the Covered Beverages and Related Products; (d) a copy of each of the then currently effective and enforceable distribution agreements for distribution of the Covered Beverages and Related Products; (e) business plan volumes and strategic plans for the Business; and (f) material claims relating to the Business of which Bottler has knowledge. All of the foregoing information is collectively referred to as the “Base Information”. Bottler will also provide such additional information (the “Additional Information”) as reasonably requested by Company and as Bottler and Company may agree is desirable to facilitate Company’s valuation of the Business.

24.4.1.3. Bottler and Company will work together in good faith to negotiate the terms and conditions of a binding agreement under which Company or Company’s designee would acquire Bottler’s Business, including the purchase price for the Business. If the parties cannot mutually agree upon the purchase price for the Business within one hundred twenty (120) days following Bottler’s delivery of the Exit Notice, then Bottler will notify Company in writing as to whether Bottler wishes to (i) terminate the process, or (ii) cause the value of the Business to be determined in accordance with the valuation process specified in Section 26 (the “Valuation Process”).

39

24.4.1.4. Once the value of the Business has been established either by mutual agreement of Bottler and Company, or through the Valuation Process, Bottler will have the right, in its sole discretion, to deliver Notice to Company that Bottler wishes to sell the Business to Company (or Company’s designee) at the agreed purchase price (or the purchase price established through the Valuation Process, as the case may be) (a “Company Sale Notice”). The Company Sale Notice must be delivered by Bottler to Company, if at all, within sixty (60) days following the determination of the purchase price for the Business (by mutual agreement or through the Valuation Process, as the case may be). The Company Sale Notice will constitute a binding offer by Bottler to sell the Business to Company or Company’s designee in accordance with the terms of this Section 24.4; provided that Bottler may withdraw such offer at any time prior to closing of such transaction, if and only if Bottler (a) reimburses Company for all third party out of pocket expenses incurred by Company in connection with the exercise by Bottler of its rights under this Section 24; and (b) exercises such right to withdraw an offer no more than once every three (3) years.

24.4.2. If Bottler delivers a Company Sale Notice as contemplated above, then, within thirty (30) days following Company’s receipt of the Company Sale Notice, Company must elect (in Company’s sole discretion) either (1) to acquire the Business (or cause the Business to be acquired by Company’s designee) in accordance with this Section 24.4, or (2) to amend this Agreement as contemplated in Schedule 24.4.2. Prior to the expiration of such thirty (30) day period, Company will provide Notice of its election to Bottler. If Bottler provides Notice to Company that Company has failed to make an election under this Section 24.4.2 within the thirty (30) day period, and Company fails to deliver Notice of its election within ten (10) days following receipt of such notice from Bottler, then Company will be deemed to have elected to amend this Agreement as contemplated in Schedule 24.4.2.

24.4.2.1. If Company delivers a Notice under Section 24.4.2 that Company (or Company’s designee) will acquire the Business, then Company or Company’s designee will acquire the Business for cash (unless otherwise mutually agreed) at the purchase price mutually agreed by Company (or Company’s designee) and Bottler, or, the purchase price established through the Valuation Process, as applicable.

24.4.2.2. If Company delivers a Notice under Section 24.4.2 that Company (or Company’s designee) will acquire the Business, then Company will acquire the Business on the terms and conditions (other than purchase price) mutually agreed upon by Bottler and Company (or Company’s designee). If Bottler and Company (or Company’s

40

designee) are unable to agree on terms and conditions of sale (other than purchase price) within sixty (60) days following Company’s delivery of a Notice under Section 24.4.2 that Company (or Company’s designee) will acquire the Business, then Company or Company’s designee will acquire the Business on the terms and conditions specified in Schedule 24.4.1. The failure to reach agreement on the terms and conditions (other than price) will in no event result in a deemed election to amend the terms of this Agreement. The purchase price for the Business will be paid in cash at closing, unless otherwise agreed by Bottler and Company (or Company’s designee).

24.4.2.3. Closing of the acquisition of the Business by Company or Company’s designee will occur within ten (10) Business Days following the receipt of all required consents and regulatory approvals (including expiration of applicable waiting periods under the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Antitrust Improvements Act).

24.4.3. If Company delivers a Notice under Section 24.4.2 that Company will amend this Agreement as contemplated in Schedule 24.4.2, or Company is deemed to have elected to amend this Agreement as contemplated in Schedule 24.4.2, then (1) this Agreement will automatically be deemed amended as specified in Schedule 24.4.2 (and Bottler and Company will take whatever actions may be necessary or appropriate to document and confirm such amendments to this Agreement), (2) Company will reimburse Bottler for all third party out of pocket expenses incurred by Bottler in connection with the exercise by Bottler of its rights under this Section 24, and (3) Bottler may thereafter enter into a Sale Transaction with a third party selected by Bottler, in its sole discretion (and as to which Company will have no approval rights), on terms and conditions mutually agreed by Bottler and the third party buyer selected by Bottler. If Bottler does consummate the Sale Transaction, then the buyer will acquire the Business subject to the terms of this Agreement, as modified under Schedule 24.4.2.

24.5. Each party shall act promptly and without delay in satisfying its obligations under this Section 24.

25. COMPENSATION TO BOTTLER ON TERMINATION FOR COMMERCIAL IMPRACTICABILITY UNDER SECTION 19.2.2, FORCE MAJEURE UNDER SECTION 20.2.2.2, DEFINED EVENTS UNDER SECTION 21 OR DEFICIENCY TERMINATION UNDER SECTION 22

25.1. If at any time during the Initial Term or any Additional Term, Company exercises its right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 19.2.2, Section 20.2.2.2, Section 21, or Section 22, Company will send Notice that Company will acquire the Business in accordance with this Section 25 (a “Purchase Notice”).

25.2. Upon receipt of a Purchase Notice from Company, except as provided in Section 25.2.1, Bottler shall sell the Business to Company (or Company’s designee) and Company (or its designee) shall purchase the Business from Bottler for cash (unless otherwise mutually agreed) at the price determined in accordance with the Valuation Process specified in Section 26 and on the other terms and conditions specified in Schedule 24.4.1.

41

25.2.1. If this Agreement terminates under Section 22.1.4 (solely as a result of Bottler’s willful misconduct), Section 22.1.6, or Section 22.1.7, then Company will purchase the Business from Bottler for cash (unless otherwise mutually agreed) at a price equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the price determined in accordance with the Valuation Process specified in Section 26.

25.3. Closing of the acquisition of the Business by Company or its designee under this Section 25 will occur within ten (10) Business Days following the receipt of all required consents and regulatory approvals (including expiration of applicable waiting periods under the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Antitrust Improvements Act) and after determination of the Business Value in accordance with the Valuation Process (if applicable).

25.4. The acquisition agreement providing for the acquisition of Bottler’s Business by Company or its designee in accordance with Section 24 or this Section 25 will include mutual releases of claims (other than claims arising under the terms of such acquisition agreement).

25.4.1. Without limiting the preceding sentence, amounts paid by Company (directly or through a Company Affiliate) or Company’s designee to Bottler as required under this Section 25 will be in lieu of, and in full satisfaction of, any claims whatsoever that Bottler may have against Company in connection with the Covered Beverages or Related Products or Bottler’s Business, including any payment due to Bottler other than (a) any trade payables due in the ordinary course of business, (b) any other undisputed amounts then due and owing, (c) any indemnification, contribution, or other similar rights Bottler may have against Company with respect to a third party claim (including any claim by a Governmental Authority) arising out of any actual or threatened action, suit, proceeding or investigation brought against Bottler, (d) any post-closing adjustments provided for in acquisition agreements between Company (or any of its Affiliates) and Bottler (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to Territory acquired from CCR described in Exhibit C-2 (e.g., purchase price adjustments based on determination of the net book value of transferred assets as of closing), or (d) as otherwise may be agreed by Company and Bottler.

25.4.2. The parties acknowledge and agree that the remedies at law of Company or Bottler for any actual or threatened breach of the covenants in Sections 24, 25 or 26 would be inadequate and that the non-breaching party will be entitled to specific performance of the covenants in Sections 24, 25 and 26, including entry of an ex parte, temporary restraining order in state or federal court, preliminary and permanent injunctive relief against acts or omissions in violation of Sections 24, 25 or 26, or other appropriate judicial remedy, writ or order, in addition to any damages and legal expenses that the non-breaching party may be legally entitled to recover.

26. VALUATION

26.1. If Bottler decides to sell the Business as contemplated under Section 24 and Bottler and Company are unable to mutually agree upon a purchase price within the one hundred twenty (120) day negotiation period specified in Section 24.4.1.3, or if Company is to acquire the Business as contemplated under Section 25, then the purchase price for the Business will be established in accordance with this Section 26.

42

26.2. Bottler and Company will each appoint a Valuation Expert within five (5) Business Days after the expiration of the applicable negotiation period under Section 24.4.1.3 (or after receipt by Bottler of a Purchase Notice from Company under Section 25.1 if applicable), and will instruct each Valuation Expert to provide its final valuation no later than sixty (60) days after such appointment.

26.2.1. “Valuation Expert” means an independent and reputable valuation firm or investment banking firm of national standing, that (i) has had no business relationship of any nature (whether directly or through any of its Affiliates) with either Company or Bottler or their respective Affiliates in the twelve months prior to its selection, (ii) is not, directly or through any of its Affiliates, in then-current discussions with either Company or Bottler or any of their respective Affiliates regarding a proposed future engagement, and (iii) has no other conflict of interest or financial interest in the proposed transaction (other than receipt of its fee as discussed below). No Valuation Expert will be permitted to receive a fee other than a fixed fee, which fee shall not be contingent on the closing of the transaction or calculated based on the Business Value.

26.2.2. “Business Value” means the value of the Business as finally determined under the Valuation Process.

26.3. Each Valuation Expert will perform a valuation of the Business.

26.4. If the valuations differ by less than ten percent (10%) of the higher valuation, the average of the two valuations will be the value of the Business.

26.5. If the valuations differ by ten percent (10%) of the higher valuation or more, the Valuation Experts will appoint a third Valuation Expert who will value the Business and will be instructed to provide its final valuation no later than sixty (60) days after its appointment.

26.5.1. In this event, the value of the Business will be the average of the two valuations with the smallest difference in the reported value, unless one valuation is the average of the other two valuations, in which case such valuation will be the value of the Business (measured on an absolute basis).

26.6. The Valuation Experts will be instructed to determine the fair value of the Business by determining the fair market value of the Business as if sold as a going concern, as between a willing buyer and a willing seller not under a compulsion to buy or sell in an arm’s-length transaction, taking into account all relevant factors, and using such methods as the Valuation Experts deem appropriate, subject to the specific instructions set forth in Schedule 26.

26.7. Each party will have the right to review all information and materials furnished by the other party to the Valuation Experts, and each party will cooperate in good faith to correct any errors in the information and materials provided by that party prior to submission to the Valuation Experts.

26.8. If a third Valuation Expert is used, as contemplated above, the third Valuation Expert will not be provided access to the valuations performed by the first two Valuation Experts.

26.9. The fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Valuation Process will be borne equally by Bottler and Company; provided, however, that if a third Valuation Expert is required under the foregoing provisions, then the party who appointed the Valuation Expert whose valuation differs more from the Business Value as finally determined (measured on an absolute basis) will be responsible for the fees and expenses of the third Valuation Expert.

The seller(s) indemnification obligations under the Acquisition Agreement will survive for a period of eighteen (18) months after the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement (except in the case of Fundamental Matters), provided that any indemnification obligations arising out of or otherwise relating to matters regarding (1) any breach or failure by the seller(s) or Bottler (or its Affiliates or stockholders) to perform any covenants or obligations in the Acquisition Agreement, (2) any breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty of the seller(s) or Bottler (or its Affiliates or stockholders) regarding incorporation, qualification, authority, ownership/title, conflicts (but only as to Bottler’s organizational documents) or brokers, or (3) pre-closing liabilities to the extent not disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule to the Acquisition Agreement or expressly included as a liability in either the Valuation Process or in the net working capital adjustment described below (collectively, the “Fundamental Matters”) will survive for a period of three (3) years after the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Acquisition Agreement. The Acquisition Agreement will provide for a deductible amount equal to one percent (1%) of the purchase price. Indemnification claims will be satisfied by escrow of a portion of the purchase price, by the use of then available insurance products providing equivalent protection (the premium costs of which will be borne by the seller(s)), or through such other equivalent means as may be customary, as of the effective date of the Acquisition Agreement, in transactions of that kind and nature (the costs of which will be borne by the seller(s)); provided that, except in the case of fraud or intentional misrepresentation, (x) in no event will the seller(s) be at risk with respect to matters in amounts in excess of the escrowed funds or insurance proceeds, as the case may be, and (y) any escrow used to provide the post-closing indemnity described herein will expire on the three (3) year anniversary of the closing of the transactions contemplated in the Acquisition Agreement (the “Indemnification Escrow Period”). The amount escrowed (the “Indemnification Escrow Amount”) will be equal to the lesser of (a) 15% of the purchase price, or (b) $200 million (which amount will be adjusted for changes in the Consumer Price Index from and after September 1, 2015). The Indemnification Escrow Amount will be distributed as follows: (a) 50% will be distributed to seller(s) after 18 months (subject to pending claims for indemnification), and (b) the balance will be distributed to seller(s) after 36 months (subject to pending claims for indemnification). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, at the time of the acquisition, either or both of the Indemnification Escrow Amount or Indemnification Escrow Period, when considered in context with the other terms and conditions described herein, are not customary in transactions of that size and nature, then the Indemnification Escrow Amount and/or the Indemnification Escrow Period, as the case may be, will be in such amount or will extend for such period as may then be customary in transactions of that size and nature.

SCHEDULE 24.4.1 – page 1

2. Company or Company’s designee (in either case, the “Buyer”) will be the acquiror of the Business, and Bottler and/or its Affiliates or stockholders, as applicable, will be the seller of the Business.

3. The Acquisition Agreement will be structured as a stock or unit purchase agreement, asset purchase agreement, or a merger agreement depending upon the nature of the stockholder base, the tax impact to Bottler’s stockholders of different sale structures, the existence of Excluded Businesses within Bottler’s corporate structure and such other pertinent considerations as the parties may otherwise mutually agree.

4. The Acquisition Agreement will include a purchase price adjustment that (i) increases the amount payable for the Business by the amount of cash and cash equivalents as of Closing that are acquired by the Company (either directly or indirectly as a result of such cash and cash equivalents being on the balance sheet of the Business in a stock purchase or merger), and (ii) reduces the amount payable for the Business by the amount of Bottler’s Indebtedness (as defined below) as of Closing that is assumed by Company or paid on behalf of Bottler by Company (or its designee) to the holder of such Indebtedness. “Indebtedness” means, without duplication, the outstanding principal amount of, accrued and unpaid interest on and other payment obligations (including any prepayment obligations payable as a result of the consummation of the acquisition of Bottler) of Bottler and its Affiliates related to (a) all indebtedness for borrowed money, whether direct or indirect; (b) all liabilities secured by any mortgage, pledge, security interest, lien, charge or other encumbrance existing on property owned or acquired and subject thereto; (c) any guarantee, endorsement or other contingent obligations in respect of Indebtedness of others, on which a claim for payment has been made or that is reasonably expected to be made and that would be required to be reflected as a liability on the balance sheet of Bottler under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the United States (or any successor set of accounting principles that may then be in effect) (“GAAP”); (d) the deferred portion or installments of purchase price, and any amounts reserved for the payment of a contingent purchase price, in each case in connection with the acquisition of any business (not including any sub-bottling payments owed under any CBA); (e) obligations to reimburse issuers of any letters of credit (but only to the extent drawn without duplication of other indebtedness supported or guaranteed thereby); (f) any obligation evidenced by bonds, debentures, notes or similar instruments; (g) capital lease obligations, with such lease obligations to be determined in accordance with GAAP; and (h) any net liability under interest rate swap contracts, swap contracts, foreign currency exchange contracts or other hedging or similar contracts (including any breakage or associated fees); provided that Indebtedness shall not include (x) intercompany obligations, (y) operating leases, or (z) accounts payable, accrued expenses, accrued income taxes or deferred income tax liability, in each case, incurred in the ordinary course of business or otherwise included in any working capital adjustment.

5. The Acquisition Agreement will include a net working capital purchase price adjustment (and for this purpose, working capital will exclude cash and cash equivalents). The Acquisition Agreement will also include a provision regarding the escrow of an appropriate portion of the purchase price (such amount not to exceed 10% of the target net working capital amount used in the Acquisition Agreement), in addition to the Indemnification Escrow Amount, to serve as security for negative purchase price adjustments based on working capital (the “Adjustment Escrow Amount”), until such time as such working capital adjustments are completed, at which time the then-remaining balance of the Adjustment Escrow Amount will be distributed to the seller(s).

SCHEDULE 24.4.1 – page 2

6. If the Acquisition Agreement is structured as a merger agreement or stock purchase agreement and Bottler has more than one (1) stockholder, such Acquisition Agreement will set forth a “stockholder representative” to act for and on behalf of Bottler’s stockholders in post-closing matters.

7. If the Acquisition Agreement is structured as a stock purchase agreement or merger agreement, it will include representations and warranties regarding the capitalization of the entity being sold and its direct and indirect subsidiaries.

8. Unless the Parties otherwise mutually agree in good faith based upon then-current customary terms or other facts and circumstances existing at the time of the transaction, the representations and warranties regarding financial statements, intellectual property and taxes will be modified as set forth below (and such representations and warranties will be subject to any exceptions thereto as are set forth on the relevant Disclosure Schedules to the Acquisition Agreement):

24.1.2 “Business” will expressly exclude any business identified on Schedule 24.1 as an “Excluded Business.”

24.1.3 “Business” will also expressly exclude any business that is not directly and primarily related to the marketing, promotion, distribution and sale of Covered Beverages and Related Products in such territories that is not identified on Schedule 24.1 as an “Included Business”, whether or not such business is identified on Schedule 24.1 as an “Excluded Business.”

shareholders of Bottler immediately prior to such transaction are (after giving effect to such transaction) no longer, in the aggregate, the “beneficial owners” (as such term is defined in Rule 13d-3 and Rule 13d-5 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act), directly or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, of more than 50% of the voting shares of Bottler on an as-converted, fully-diluted basis.

24.2 Discussions with Company or Third Parties and Sale of Business to Third Parties

24.2.1 If Bottler decides to sell, directly or indirectly, all or a majority interest in the Business, including as a result of a change in control or an unsolicited third party offer, Bottler will notify Company of the possible Sale Transaction promptly after identifying its proposed Buyer (a “Potential Buyer”). Any and all discussions between Company and Bottler regarding such possible Sale Transaction shall be kept confidential, shall not be binding on either party, and shall not be deemed to have triggered the commencement of the procedures for possible sale of the Business to Company described in Section 24.3.

24.2.2 Notwithstanding any provisions in this Agreement or any Related Agreement to the contrary, Bottler may enter into a binding agreement for a Sale Transaction with any Potential Buyer at any time following such notice and, upon consummation of such sale, of all Bottler’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and all Related Agreements may be assigned to and assumed by such Potential Buyer.

24.3 Offer of Sale of Business to Company

24.3.1 At any time after the Effective Date, Bottler may provide Company with Notice that Bottler wishes to sell the Business in a Sale Transaction to Company or Company’s designee or to a Jointly Selected Potential Buyer identified under Section 24.3.5 hereof, under the terms of this Section 24.3 (an “Offer Notice”).

24.3.3 Bottler may withdraw such Offer Notice at any time prior to closing of such transaction, if and only if Bottler (a) reimburses Company for all third party out of pocket expenses incurred by Company in connection with the exercise by Bottler of its rights under this Section 24.3; and (b) exercises such right to withdraw an offer made in an Offer Notice no more than once every three (3) years.

24.3.4 The Offer Notice must be delivered in writing to Company’s Chief Financial Officer, with a copy to Company’s General Counsel.

24.3.5 If Bottler delivers an Offer Notice to Company, Bottler and Company will cooperate with each other, on a confidential basis, to identify potential third parties who may be interested in and financially capable of acquiring the Business.

SCHEDULE 24.4.2 – page 5

24.3.5.1 If one or more potential third party buyers are identified in this manner that are approved both by Bottler (in its sole discretion) and Company (in its sole discretion) (a “Jointly Selected Potential Buyer”) within 30 days after the date of the Offer Notice, then Bottler may enter into a binding agreement for the sale of the Business with any Jointly Selected Potential Buyer, on such terms and conditions as Bottler may determine in its sole discretion, within 180 days following the end of such 30 day period (the “Third Party Negotiation Period”) and, upon consummation of such sale, all of Bottler’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and all Related Agreements may be assigned to and assumed by such Jointly Selected Potential Buyer.

24.3.5.2 If, despite the identification of one or more Jointly Selected Potential Buyers in the process outlined above, Bottler is unable to enter into a binding agreement for the sale of the Business with such Jointly Selected Potential Buyer prior to the end of the Third Party Negotiation Period (as such period may be extended by mutual written agreement of Bottler and Company), or having entered into such a binding agreement, the transactions contemplated therein are not consummated, for any reason, and the binding agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, then Bottler may elect for Bottler and Company to proceed in accordance with Section 24.3.7.

24.3.5.3 If no Jointly Selected Potential Buyer is identified within the 30 day period specified in Section 24.3.5.1, or if following delivery of the Offer Notice, Bottler and Company mutually agree to dispense with an attempt to identify one or more Jointly Selected Potential Buyers as described above, and mutually agree to negotiate terms of a sale of the Business to Company, then Bottler and Company will proceed in accordance with Section 24.3.7.

24.3.6 Within five (5) Business Days following delivery of the Offer Notice to Company, Bottler will deliver to Company the following unaudited written management information in Bottler’s possession or control and that is ordinarily and customarily produced and used by Bottler for each of the three (3) year periods ending on the last day of the quarter preceding the date of the delivery of the Offer Notice: (a) revenues with respect to the Business for the relevant period then ended in both dollars and cases; (b) statements of income down to the contribution margin level for the Covered Beverages and Related Products for the relevant period then ended; (c) most current management bills of cost for each of the Covered Beverages and Related Products; (d) a copy of each of the then currently effective and enforceable distribution agreements for distribution of the Covered Beverages and Related Products; (e) business plan volumes and strategic plans for the Business; and (f) material claims relating to the Business of which Bottler has knowledge. All of the foregoing information is collectively referred to as the “Base Information”. Bottler will also provide such additional information to Company (the “Additional Information”) as Bottler and Company may agree is desirable to facilitate the valuation of the Business and, if applicable, to identify one or more Jointly Selected Potential Buyers as contemplated in Section 24.3.5.

SCHEDULE 24.4.2 – page 6

24.3.7 If either of the circumstances described in Section 24.3.5.2 or Section 24.3.5.3 occurs, then Bottler and Company will meet promptly to discuss the acquisition of the Business by Company (directly or through a Company Affiliate) or Company’s designee and to enter into discussions regarding the purchase price and the other terms and conditions of the acquisition.

24.3.8 If Company and Bottler mutually agree upon the purchase price and other terms and conditions of the acquisition, then Company (directly or through a Company Affiliate) or Company’s designee will purchase the Business for cash (unless otherwise agreed) at the purchase price and other terms and conditions so agreed upon.

24.3.9 If Company and Bottler mutually agree that Company or its designee will acquire the Business, but Company and Bottler cannot agree on purchase price within 120 days following Company’s receipt of Bottler’s Notice to schedule the meeting described in Section 24.3.7 (the “Negotiation Period”), then Company and Bottler will determine the value of the Business in accordance with the valuation process specified in Section 26 (the “Valuation Process”).

24.3.10 If the Business Value, as defined in Section 26.2.2, is determined pursuant to the Valuation Process (rather than by mutual agreement), then Bottler will have the right, in its sole discretion, to deliver Notice to Company that Bottler wishes to sell the Business to Company (or Company’s designee) at the purchase price established through the Valuation Process (a “Company Sale Notice”). The Company Sale Notice must be delivered by Bottler to Company, if at all, within sixty (60) days following the determination of the purchase price for the Business through the Valuation Process. The Company Sale Notice will constitute a binding offer by Bottler to sell the Business to Company or Company’s designee in accordance with the terms of this Section 24.4; provided that Bottler may withdraw such offer at any time prior to closing of such transaction, if and only if Bottler (a) reimburses Company for all third party out of pocket expenses incurred by Company in connection with the exercise by Bottler of its rights under this Section 24.3; and (b) exercises such right to withdraw an offer no more than once every three (3) years. Any withdrawal of an offer by Bottler shall not limit Bottler’s rights to enter into a Sale Transaction under Section 24.2 at any time. Following receipt of a Company Sale Notice, Company (or its designee) will have the option, in its sole discretion, to acquire the Business for cash (unless otherwise agreed) at the Business Value determined in accordance with the Valuation Process, subject to the following:

24.3.10.1 Company shall give Notice to Bottler of its election either to acquire the Business, or to forego its option, within 5 Business Days after the Business Value is determined under Section 26.

SCHEDULE 24.4.2 – page 7

24.3.10.2 If Company elects to acquire the Business as contemplated in Section 24.3.10, then Bottler and Company will proceed in accordance with Sections 24.3.11 and 24.3.12; provided, that Bottler may withdraw the Offer Notice at any time, subject to the provisions of Section 24.3.3.

24.3.10.3 If Company elects not to acquire the Business as contemplated in Section 24.3.10, Company shall reimburse Bottler for all third party out of pocket expenses incurred by Bottler in connection with the exercise by Bottler of its rights under this Section 24.

24.3.11 If Company elects to acquire the Business as contemplated in Section 24.3.10, but the parties are unable to agree on terms and conditions of sale (other than purchase price), then Company (directly or through a Company Affiliate) or Company’s designee will acquire the Business on the terms and conditions specified in Schedule 24.4.1.

24.3.12 Closing of the acquisition of the Business by Company (directly or through a Company Affiliate) or Company’s designee will occur within ten (10) Business Days timing subject to discussion following the receipt of all required consents and regulatory approvals (including expiration of applicable waiting periods under the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Antitrust Improvements Act) and after determination of the Business Value in accordance with the Valuation Process (if applicable).

24.3.13 Nothing contained in this Section 24 shall, or shall be deemed to, prevent Company from making an offer to acquire the Business at any time, even if Company has previously elected not to acquire the Business under Section 24.3.10. If any such offer is made, Bottler shall have no obligation to accept it.

15. Existing Section 26 will be deleted and replaced with the following:

26. VALUATION

26.1 If (a) Bottler decides to sell the Business as contemplated under Section 24, and (b) a sale to a Jointly Selected Potential Buyer does not occur (or Bottler and Company mutually elect to forego an attempt to identify a Jointly Selected Potential Buyer), and the parties are unable to mutually agree upon a purchase price within the 120 day Negotiation Period specified in Section 24.3.9, or if Company is to acquire the Business as contemplated under Section 25, then the purchase price for the Business will be established in accordance with this Section 26.

26.2 Bottler and Company will each appoint a Valuation Expert within five (5) Business Days after the expiration of the Negotiation Period under Section 24.3.9 (or receipt by Bottler of a Purchase Notice from Company under Section 25.1 if applicable), and will instruct each Valuation Expert to provide its final valuation no later than sixty (60) days after such appointment.

26.2.1 “Valuation Expert” means an independent and reputable valuation firm or investment banking firm of national standing, that (i) has had no business relationship of any nature (whether directly or through any of its Affiliates) with either Company or

SCHEDULE 24.4.2 – page 8

Bottler or their respective Affiliates in the twelve months prior to its selection, (ii) is not, directly or through any of its Affiliates, in then-current discussions with either Company or Bottler or any of their respective Affiliates regarding a proposed future engagement, and (iii) has no other conflict of interest or financial interest in the proposed transaction (other than receipt of its fee as discussed below). No Valuation Expert will be permitted to receive a fee other than a fixed fee, which fee shall not be contingent on the closing of the transaction or calculated based on the Business Value.

26.2.2 “Business Value” means the value of the Business as finally determined under the Valuation Process.

26.3 Each Valuation Expert will perform a valuation of the Business.

26.4 If the valuations differ by less than 10% of the higher valuation, the average of the two valuations will be the value of the Business.

26.5 If the valuations differ by 10% of the higher valuation or more, the Valuation Experts will appoint a third Valuation Expert who will value the Business and provide its final valuation no later than sixty (60) days after its appointment.

26.5.1 In this event, the value of the Business will be the average of the two valuations with the smallest difference in the reported value, unless one valuation is the average of the other two valuations, in which case such valuation will be the value of the Business (measured on an absolute basis).

26.6 The Valuation Experts will be instructed to determine the fair value of the Business by determining the fair market value of the Business as if sold as a going concern, as between a willing buyer and a willing seller not under a compulsion to buy or sell in an arm’s-length transaction, taking into account all relevant factors, and using such methods as the Valuation Experts deem appropriate, subject to the specific instructions set forth in Schedule 26.

26.7 Each party will have the right to review all information and materials furnished by the other party to the Valuation Experts, and each party will cooperate in good faith to correct any errors in the information and materials provided by that party prior to submission to the Valuation Experts.

26.8 If a third Valuation Expert is used, as contemplated above, the third Valuation Expert will not be provided access to the valuations performed by the first two Valuation Experts.

26.9 The fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Valuation Process will be borne equally by Bottler and Company; provided, however, that if a third Valuation Expert is required under the foregoing provisions, then the party who appointed the Valuation Expert whose valuation differs more from the Business Value as finally determined (measured on an absolute basis) will be responsible for the fees and expenses of the third Valuation Expert.

26.10 If the Business Value is determined by a third Valuation Expert as contemplated in Section 26.5 (i.e., the valuations produced by the first two Valuation Experts differ by 10% of the higher valuation or more), then, within thirty (30) days following receipt of the third Valuation Expert’s report of the Business Value, Bottler may (at Bottler’s sole option) elect to pursue a sale of the Business to a Potential Buyer or a Jointly Selected Potential Buyer in accordance with Section 24.

SCHEDULE 24.4.2 – page 9

SCHEDULE 26

Guidance to Valuation Experts

Any Valuation Expert appointed under the terms of this Agreement to determine the value of Bottler’s Business in connection with a Valuation Process will be instructed as follows:

1. The Valuation Expert must ignore any prior guidance or valuation work provided by or performed by the party appointing the Valuation Expert and must ignore any offers that may have been made with respect to Bottler’s Business by third parties other than bona fide offers from approved Potential Buyers.

2. The Valuation Expert will determine the fair market value of Bottler’s Business as a going concern under current ownership, assuming an arm’s-length transaction between a willing buyer and willing seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or sell and both having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts. The Valuation Expert must rely primarily upon a Discounted Cash Flow approach for the valuation of the Business (“DCF”), but may also consider other relevant and commonly accepted valuation methodologies, including market and asset based approaches, to determine the fair market value of Bottler’s Business. The DCF would utilize a defined forecast period of ten (10) years, based on forecasts provided by Bottler and Company, and the methodology would also contemplate a perpetuity approach in addition to the explicit forecast. Further, the DCF must be prepared using the information and guidance contained in this Schedule 26 (i.e., consideration of the Business as a going concern under current ownership, demonstrated historical performance, investment requirements, balance sheet position, cost of capital of the entity, the financial projections provided by Bottler and Company, as well as such other information acquired from the parties that may be necessary or helpful in preparing the underlying economic forecast of the DCF).

3. Each party will provide such information in its possession that the Valuation Expert reasonably requests to prepare its valuation. Each of Bottler and Company agrees to provide the Valuation Expert with reasonable access to its (and its applicable Affiliates’) management team members for the Valuation Expert to conduct interviews to discuss Bottler’s historical financial performance, forecasts, the Business, the beverage industry and other matters it determines in its reasonable discretion are necessary or helpful to prepare its valuation. Bottler shall also permit the Valuation Expert to conduct site visits of the Business upon advance notice and during regular business hours if the Valuation Expert determines such site visits are reasonably necessary to prepare its valuation.

4. Each party will have the right to submit such information to the Valuation Expert as it deems relevant, and each party will have the right to review all information and materials furnished by the other party prior to submission to the Valuation Experts. Each party will cooperate in good faith to correct any errors in the information and materials provided by that party prior to submission to the Valuation Experts.

5. If the transaction is structured as a merger or stock purchase, the Valuation Expert is to determine a price per share assuming an acquisition of all of the outstanding equity interests of the Bottler, without applying discounts for illiquidity, lack of marketability or lack of control. The Valuation Expert should assume for purposes of the valuation that the interests in Bottler are freely transferable and shall disregard Company’s right to approve a sale of the Business

SCHEDULE 26 – page 1

under Section 24. The Valuation Expert will add to the amount derived from the DCF analysis an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the DCF valuation to derive a final valuation (such additional amount being intended to reflect value that would otherwise be excluded from consideration by this Schedule 26, such as synergies (the “Additional Amount”)); however, such Additional Amount would not apply to any valuation methodology considered by the Valuation Expert other than a DCF.

6. The Valuation Expert should not include the Excluded Business in determining the price per share and should assume that the Excluded Business will be retained by Bottler’s shareholders.

7. The Valuation Expert must exclude future synergies resulting from the ownership of Bottler’s Business by Company or any designee of Company; provided, however, the Valuation Expert may, in the exercise of its professional judgment, consider identifiable and quantifiable future synergies resulting solely from capital investments and operating expenditures made by Bottler prior to the closing of the transaction that have not yet been reflected in Bottler’s results of operations.

8. The Valuation Expert must exclude or add back, as the case may be, any one-time or non-recurring items of expense, revenue, gain or loss, including personal operating expenses and charitable expenses relating to the current ownership of Bottler’s Business.

9. With respect to the Sub-Bottling Territory, the Valuation Expert will assume that Sub-Bottling Payments will continue into perpetuity at the applicable payment percentages based on the Valuation Expert’s determination of likely [***] in the future. The Valuation Expert is to ascribe no value to any Sub-Bottling Payments made prior to the closing of the acquisition of Bottler by Company (i.e., Bottler will not receive “credit” for the amount of any such payments made prior to the closing).

10. The Valuation Expert may, in its professional judgment, consider the then current market price for any of the Company’s securities that are then traded on a public securities exchange.

11. All appraisal reports must be rendered in writing to Company and Bottler and must be signed by the Valuation Expert making the report.

12. If Bottler is a private company or the transaction is structured as an asset purchase and sale, the Valuation Expert will value Bottler’s Business on a debt-free, cash free basis (i.e., on an enterprise basis, assuming that Bottler does not have any Indebtedness (as defined in Schedule 24.4.1) or cash or cash equivalents).

13. The Valuation Expert will not consider any claimed tax benefits existing at the time of the closing (whether resulting from the transaction or otherwise) (e.g., Net Operating Losses or basis step-ups); provided, however, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Valuation Expert shall consider any such tax benefits that the parties mutually agree (acting reasonably in good faith) are (i) identifiable, (ii) quantifiable, and (iii) applicable to the transaction.

14. The Valuation Expert will assume that (a) this Agreement automatically renews for multiple successive terms under Section 18.3, (b) any agreement between Bottler and Company (or between any of their respective Affiliates) under which Bottler or its Affiliate is authorized to

[***] – THIS CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION HAS BEEN OMITTED AND FILED SEPARATELY WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION PURSUANT TO A REQUEST FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT.

SCHEDULE 26 – page 2

15. manufacture Covered Beverages will remain in full force and effect throughout such automatically renewed term, and (c) neither party will exercise (or has exercised) any termination rights or rights of non-renewal of this Agreement or any Related Agreement.

16. The Valuation Expert will assume that the Incidence Rates across all Shared Business Segments, taken as a whole, that are most favorable to Bottler at any point in time during the five (5) year period preceding the date in which the valuation process is commenced will continue to apply indefinitely (that is, the Valuation Expert should ignore any right that Company may have to adjust the Incidence Rate or Shared Business Segments under the Incidence Agreement).

17. In delivering their final valuation, each Valuation Expert will provide a single valuation amount as their final valuation and not a range of valuations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Schedule 26, in no event will the final value of the Bottler determined under this Schedule 26 be less than the Net Book Value of Bottler (as reflected on the Bottler’s most recent annual audited financial statements and as determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles in the U.S. (or any successor set of accounting principles that may then be in effect)).
