EXHIBIT 10.4
AMENDMENT AGREEMENT
This agreement to amend (the "Amendment") the Management Incentive
Agreement effective January 1, 1994 (the "Agreement'), issued pursuant to the
Coca-Cola Bottling Company of the Southwest Management Incentive Plan (the
"Plan") is entered by and among Coca-Cola Bottling Company of the Southwest
(the "Company") and E. T. Xxxxxxx, III.
WHEREAS, The Coca-Cola Bottling Group (Southwest), Inc. (the "Parent"),
the corporate parent of the Company, desires to establish a Management
Incentive Plan ("Parent Plan") based on three-year cumulative cash flow for
the combined operations of the Southwest Coca-Cola Bottling Company, Inc. and
Texas Bottling Group, Inc.;
WHEREAS, the Plan is based solely on the cash flow of the Company for a
five-year period which overlaps the time period to be covered by the Parent
Plan, and is therefore redundant;
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company believes that the Parent
Plan will be more advantageous for the Company because it will align the
efforts of the Parent, the Company, Southwest Coca-Cola Bottling Company,
Inc. and Texas Bottling Group, Inc. to improve the financial performance of
all four entities; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company has approved the revisions
to the Plan and the Agreement incorporated in this Amendment;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the payments to be
received under the Plan and for other good and valuable consideration, the
parties to this Amendment agree as follows:
A. Paragraph 1 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:
"1. PAYMENT OF BONUS. If Manager qualifies to receive the Incentive
Bonus, the Annual Component of the Incentive Bonus will be paid on June 13,
1997, one-half of the Three Year Component of the Incentive Bonus will be
paid on March 1, 1998 and the remaining one-half of the Three Year Component
of the Incentive Bonus will be paid on March 1, 1999."
B. Paragraph 2 of the Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:
"2. ONE-TIME BONUS CONCEPT. The amount of the Annual Component of the
Incentive Bonus will be determined on June 1, 1997 by comparing the actual
annual cash flow of the Company in each year from January 1, 1994 through
December 31, 1996 to projected annual cash flow goals, and the Three Year
Component of the Incentive Bonus will be determined by comparing the total
cash flow for such three year period with the sum of the annual projected cash
1
flow goals, according to the formula described in Paragraph 4 below."
C. Paragraph 3 (a) of the Agreement is hereby amended by substituting
the year 1996 for 1997, and deleting the reference to the financial
statements for fiscal 1998.
D. Paragraph 3 (b) of the Agreement is hereby amended by substituting
the following chart of Cash Flow Targets:
