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;
(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;
(e) to notify the Company promptly in the event of or upon obtaining knowledge of any third-party action which mayor 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 28, 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 trademarks 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 Company’s 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 between 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 28, 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 28 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 any 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.
29. 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:
30. The Company may assign any of its rights and delegate all or any of its duties or obligations under this Agreement to one or more of its subsidiaries or related companies provided, however, that any such delegation shall not relieve the Company from any of its contractual obligations under this Agreement. In addition, the Company, in its sole discretion, may through written notice to the Bottler appoint a third party as its representative to ensure that the Bottler carries out its obligations under this Agreement, with full powers to oversee the Bottler’s performance and to require from the Bottler its compliance with all the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
31. Neither the Company nor the Bottler shall be liable for failure to perform any of their respective obligations hereunder when such failure is caused by or results from:

(b) act of God, force majeure, public enemies, authority of law and/or legislative or administrative measures (including the withdrawal of any government authorization required by any of the parties to carry out the terms of this Agreement), embargo, quarantine, riot, insurrection, a declared or undeclared war, state of war or belligerency or hazard or danger incident thereto; or
(c) any other cause whatsoever beyond their respective control.
In the event the Bottler is unable to perform its obligations as a consequence of any of the contingencies set forth in this Clause 31, and for the duration of such inability, the Company and Authorized Suppliers shall be relieved of their respective obligations under Clauses 2 and 5; and provided that, if any such failure by either party shall persist for a period of six (6) months or more, either party hereto may terminate this Agreement without liability for damages.
32 (a) The Company reserves the sole and exclusive right to institute any civil, administrative or criminal proceedings or actions, and generally to take or seek any available legal remedy it deems desirable, for the protection of its reputation, Trade Marks, and other intellectual property rights, as well as for the protection of the Concentrate, the Syrup and the Beverage, and to defend any action affecting these matters. At the request of the Company, the Bottler will render assistance in any such action. The Bottler shall not have any claim against the Company as a result of such proceedings or action or for any failure to institute or defend such proceedings or action.
The Bottler shall promptly notify the Company of any litigation or proceedings instituted or threatened affecting these matters. The Bottler shall not institute any legal or administrative proceedings against any third party which may affect the interests of the Company without the prior written consent of the Company.
(b) The Company has the sole and exclusive right and responsibility to initiate and defend all proceedings and actions relating to the Trade Marks.

33. (a) The Bottler agrees to consult with the Company on all product liability claims, proceedings or actions brought against the Bottler in connection with the Beverage or Approved Containers and to take such action with respect to the defense of any such claim or lawsuit as the Company may reasonably request in order to protect the interests of the Company in the Beverage, the Approved Containers or the goodwill associated with the Trade Marks.
(b) The Bottler shall indemnify and hold harmless the Company, its affiliates and their respective officers, directors and employees from and against all costs, expenses, damages, claims, obligations and liabilities whatsoever arising from facts or circumstances not attributable to the Company including, but not limited to, all costs and expenses incurred in settling or compromising any of the same arising out of the preparation, packaging, distribution, sale or promotion of the Beverage by the Bottler, including, but not limited to, all costs arising out of the acts or defaults, whether negligent or not, of the Bottler, the Bottler’s distributors, suppliers and wholesalers.
(c) The Bottler shall obtain and maintain a policy of insurance with insurance carriers satisfactory to the Company giving full and comprehensive coverage both as to amount and risks covered in respect of matters referred to in subclause (b) above (including the indemnity contained therein) and shall on request produce evidence satisfactory to the Company of the existence of such insurance. Compliance with this Clause 33(c) shall not limit or relieve the Bottler from its obligations under Clause 33(b) hereof.
34. The Bottler covenants and agrees:
(a) that it will make no representations or disclosures to public or government authorities or to any other third party, relating to the Concentrate, the Syrup or the Beverage without the prior written consent of the Company;
(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;
(c) that it will at all times, both during the continuance and after termination of this Agreement, keep strictly confidential all secret and confidential information
including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, mixing instructions and techniques, sales, marketing and distribution information, projects and plans, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, which the Bottler may receive from the Company, or in any other manner, and to ensure that such information shall be made known only to those officers, directors and employees bound by reasonable provisions incorporating the secrecy obligations set out in this Clause; and
(d) that upon the expiration or earlier termination of this Agreement, it will forthwith hand over to the Company or to whomever the Company may direct all written or graphic, electromagnetic, computerized, digital or other materials comprising or containing any information subject to the obligation of confidentiality hereunder.
35. The Company and the Bottler recognize that incidents may arise which can threaten the reputation and business of the Bottler and/or negatively affect the good name, reputation and image of the Company and the Trade Marks. In order to address such incidents, including but not limited to any questions of quality of the Beverage that may occur, the Bottler will designate and organize an incident management team and inform the Company of the members of such team. The Bottler further agrees to cooperate fully with the Company and such third parties as the Company may designate and coordinate all efforts to address and resolve an y such incident consistent with procedures for crisis management that may be issued to the Bottler by the Company from time to time.
36. 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 25(a)(2) is not affected hereby.
37. (a) As to all matters and things herein mentioned, this Agreement, as may be amended or supplemented in writing from time to time, shall constitute the only agreement between the Company and the Bottler. All prior agreements of any kind whatsoever between the parties relating to the subject matter are cancelled hereby, save to the extent that the same may comprise agreements and other documents within the provisions of Clause 17(a) hereof; provided, however, that any written representations made by the Bottler upon which the Company relied in entering into this Agreement shall remain binding upon the Bottler.

5. The Bottler shall discontinue the sale of Post-Mix Syrups to any retail outlet when notified by the Company that any of the Beverages dispensed through a Post-Mix Dispenser located in or adjoining the establishment of the retail outlet do not comply with the standards prescribed by the Company for the Beverages or that the Post-Mix Dispenser is not of a type approved by the Company.
6. The Bottler agrees;
(a) to sell and distribute the Post-Mix Syrups only in containers of a type approved by the Company and to use on said containers only labels which have been approved by the Company; and
(b) to exert every influence to persuade retail outlets to use a standard glass, paper cup or other container approved by the Company and with markings approved by the Company to the end that the Beverages served to the customer will be appropriately identified and will be served in an attractive and sanitary container.
