RE: Bottler’s Agreement for Great Britain

Dear Sirs:

We refer to our recent discussions concerning the interpretation of certain clauses of the Bottler’s Agreement entered into among The Coca-Cola Company, The Coca-Cola Export Corporation (The Coca-Cola Company and The Coca-Cola Export Corporation hereinafter collectively or severally referred to as the “Company” unless otherwise specified) and Coca-Cola Enterprises Limited (hereinafter “CCE”), effective January 1, 2008 (the “Bottler’s Agreement”).

Clause 8(b).

As we have discussed, the purpose of Clause 8(b) of the Bottler’s Agreement is to enable the Company to respond to and address the needs of international and multi-jurisdictional customers as described in the clause. As you can appreciate, this is an important provision to ensure that the system continues to be responsive to customer demands, and maintains its flexibility and competitiveness. We understand your concerns around the Company exercising its rights under this Clause, and confirm that the Company will act reasonably in the exercise of its rights and will consult and agree with you prior to taking any action.

Clause 22(d).

We note that you have expressed concerns regarding the rights that are reserved to the Company in Clause 22(d) of the Bottler’s Agreement. This provision addresses the rights of the parties in establishing and revising the maximum prices for the trademarked beverage products of the Company. While many factors impact pricing, the affordability of our products for our consumers is critically important to the future success of our respective businesses. In the Company’s view affordability reinforces consumer loyalty and repeat purchase of our brands and ensures healthy competition in the marketplace. The Company and the Bottler will engage in full and open dialogue regarding proposed movements in price that impact multiple customers or that are across-the-board for a package by the Bottler. As a result, the Company agrees that it will not exercise the rights set forth in Clause 22(d).

Finally, for the sake of clarity:

(1) Clause 7 of the Bottler’s Agreement does not amend or otherwise change the agreements between us regarding the Global Marketing Fund, and such Global Marketing Fund agreements do not amend or otherwise change the Bottler’s Agreement;

Coca-Cola Enterprises Limited

January 1, 2008

Page 2

(2) Clause 10 allows you to distribute and sell the Beverages to wholesalers in the Territory who sell to other wholesalers operating in the Territory;

(3) the Clause 20(c) limitations refer only to Company-trademarked items or other Company proprietary items;

(4) paragraph (1.) of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx’x letter dated October 8, 1986 shall be applicable to the Bottler’s Agreement, provided that a new letter shall be issued making specific reference to the equivalent provision in each of CCE’s bottler’s agreements; and

(5) pursuant to Clause 35, the Company and CCE will work to identify and use jointly agreed procedures and processes for incidents involving Company brands. Moreover, CCE recognizes that its close association with the Company means it will use its best efforts to use those same agreed procedures for incidents involving non-Company brands and to involve the Company appropriately when such incidents occur. The parties also agree that each shall not be bound by such procedures to the extent otherwise required by the interests of the company’s shareowners, or by law or regulation.

It is agreed that this letter falls within the merger provisions of clause 37(b) of the Bottler’s Agreement.

We hope that the above addresses your concerns.

Page 3

		(h)		not to sell and/or distribute the Beverage, without the prior written consent of the Company, outside the Territory or to anyone who intends to resell the Beverage outside the Territory; the foregoing prohibition does not apply if the Territory is a Member State or within a Member State of the European Economic Area and the sale results from an order from a customer in another Member State or for export to another Member State; and

7.		The Bottler must, for its own account, budget and expend such funds for advertising, marketing and promoting the Beverage as may be reasonably required by the Company to create, stimulate and sustain the demand for the Beverage in the Territory, provided that the Bottler shall submit all advertising, marketing and promotional projects relating to the Trade Marks or the Beverage to the Company for its prior approval, and shall use, publish, maintain or distribute only such advertising, marketing or promotional material relating to the Trade Marks or the Beverage as the Company shall approve and authorize.

Any other methods of distribution shall be subject to the prior written consent of the Company.

20.		(a)		The Bottler recognizes that increases in the demand for the Beverage, as well as changes in the Approved Containers, may from time to time require modifications or other changes in respect of its existing manufacturing, packaging, delivery or vending equipment or require the purchase of additional manufacturing, packaging, delivery or vending equipment. The Bottler agrees to make such modifications to existing equipment and to purchase and install such additional equipment as necessary with sufficient lead time to enable the introduction of new Approved Containers and the preparation and packaging of the Beverage in accordance with the continuing obligations of the Bottler to develop, stimulate and satisfy fully every demand for the Beverage in the Territory.

(1) if the Company, the Authorized Suppliers or the Bottler cannot legally obtain foreign exchange to remit abroad in payment of imports of the Concentrate or the ingredients or materials necessary for the manufacture of the Concentrate, the Syrup or the Beverage; or

(2) if any part of this Agreement ceases to be in conformity with the laws or regulations applicable in the Territory and, as a result thereof, or as a result of any other laws affecting this Agreement, any one of the material stipulations herein cannot be legally performed or the Syrup cannot be prepared, or the Beverage cannot be prepared or sold in accordance with the instructions issued by the Company pursuant to Clause 17 above, or if the Concentrate cannot be manufactured or sold in accordance with the Company’s formula or the standards prescribed by it.

During the period of such prohibition of production, the Company shall be entitled to suspend deliveries of the Concentrate to the Bottler and to supply the Beverage or to arrange for others to supply the Beverage in the Territory.

VII. OWNERSHIP AND CONTROL OF THE BOTTLER

27.		It is recognized and acknowledged among the parties hereto that the Company has a vested and legitimate interest in maintaining, promoting and safeguarding the overall performance, efficiency and integrity of the Company’s international bottling, distribution and sales system. It is further recognized and acknowledged among the parties hereto that this Agreement has been entered into by the Company intuitu personae and in reliance upon the identity, character and integrity of the owners, controlling parties and managers of the Bottler, and the Bottler warrants having made to the Company prior to the execution hereof a full and complete disclosure of the owners and of any third parties having a right to, or power of, control or management of the Bottler. It is therefore agreed among the parties hereto that notwithstanding the provisions of Clause 16 or any other provision of this Clause 27, in the event of any change, due to any cause, of the real persons or legal entities having direct or indirect ownership or control of the Bottler, including any changes of the share-owner composition of such entities, the Company, in its sole discretion, may terminate this Agreement forthwith and without liability for damages. The Bottler, therefore, covenants and agrees:
		(a)		not to assign, transfer, pledge or in any way encumber this Agreement or any interest herein or rights hereunder, in whole or in part, to any third party or parties without the prior written consent of the Company;

Page 13

		(b)		not to delegate performance of this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any third party or parties without the prior written consent of the Company;
		(c)		to notify the Company promptly in the event of or upon obtaining knowledge of any third party action which may or will result in any change in the ownership or control of the Bottler;
		(d)		to make available from time to time and at the request of the Company complete records of current ownership of the Bottler and full information concerning any third party or parties by whom it is controlled, directly or indirectly;
		(e)		to the extent the Bottler has any legal control over changes in the ownership or control of the Bottler, not to initiate or implement, consent to or acquiesce in any such change without the prior written consent of the Company; and
		(f)		if the Bottler is organized as a partnership, not to change the composition of such partnership by the inclusion of any new partners or the release of existing partners without the prior written consent of the Company.
		In addition to the foregoing provisions of this Clause 27, if a proposed change in ownership or control of the Bottler involves a direct or indirect transfer to or acquisition of ownership or control of the Bottler, in whole or in part, by a person or entity authorized by the Company to manufacture, sell, distribute or otherwise deal in any beverage products and/or any Trade Marks of the Company (the “Acquiror Bottler”), the Company may request any and all information it considers relevant from both the Bottler and the Acquiror Bottler in order to make its determination as to whether to consent to such change. In any such circumstances, the parties hereto, recognizing and acknowledging the vested and legitimate interest of the Company in maintaining, promoting and safeguarding the overall performance, efficiency and integrity of the Companys international bottling, distribution and sales system, expressly agree that the Company may consider all and any factors, and apply any criteria that it considers relevant in making such determination.
		It is further recognized and agreed among the parties hereto that the Company, in its sole discretion, may withhold consent to any proposed change in ownership or other transaction contemplated in this Clause 27, or may consent subject to such conditions as the Company, in its sole discretion, may determine. The parties hereto expressly stipulate and agree that any violation by the Bottler of the foregoing covenants contained in this Clause 27 shall entitle the Company to terminate this Agreement forthwith without liability for damages; and, furthermore, in view of the personal nature of this Agreement, that the Company shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without liability for damages if any other third party or parties should obtain any direct or indirect interest in the ownership or control of the Bottler, even when the Bottler had no means to prevent such a change, if, in the opinion of the Company, such change either enables such third party or parties to exercise a decisive influence over the management of the Bottler or materially alters the ability of the Bottler to comply fully with the terms, obligations and conditions of this Agreement.

Page 14

28. The Bottler shall, prior to the issue, offer, sale, transfer, trade or exchange of any of its shares of stock or other evidence of ownership, its bonds, debentures or other evidence of indebtedness, or the promotion of the sale of the above, or stimulation or solicitation of the purchase or an offer to sell thereof, obtain the written consent of the Company whenever the Bottler uses in this connection the name of the Company or the Trade Marks or any description of the business relationship with the Company in any prospectus, advertisement or other sales efforts. The Bottler shall not use the name of the Company or the Trade Marks or any description of the business relationship with the Company in any prospectus or advertisement used in connection with the Bottler’s acquisition of any shares or other evidence of ownership in a third party without the Company’s prior written consent.

VIII. GENERAL PROVISIONS

29.

Compliance with this Clause 32(c) shall not limit or relieve the Bottler from its obligations under Clause 32(b) hereof.
33.		The Bottler covenants and agrees:

Page 16

		(b)		in the event that the Bottler is publicly listed or traded, it will disclose to the Company any financial or other information relating to the performance or prospects of the Bottler at the same time as the Bottler is required to disclose such information pursuant to the regulations of the stock exchange or the securities or corporations law applicable to the Bottler;

34.		The Bottler agrees to inform the Company:
		(1)		When a Country or Channel in the Territory becomes subject to the terms of the Undertaking given by the Bottler to the European Commission (the “Undertaking”), or ceases to be subject to the Undertaking because the applicable thresholds set out in the Undertaking are not met.
		(2)		Of any action it becomes aware of that is initiated by a third party before a competent regulatory authority or court, in which it is alleged that the Bottler has violated any of the terms of the Undertaking.

In the event of any provisions of this Agreement being or becoming legally ineffective or invalid, the validity or effect of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected; provided that the invalidity or ineffectiveness of the said provisions shall not prevent or unduly hamper performance hereunder or prejudice the ownership or validity of the Trade Marks. The right to terminate in accordance with Clause 24(a)(2) is not affected hereby.
