        <footnote id="F1">This number represents shares of PBG common stock withheld to satisfy the tax withholding obligation due upon the vesting of restricted stock units, which were granted on March 1, 2006.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">This number reflects the number of restricted stock units (&quot;RSUs&quot;) granted to the reporting person.  RSUs are settled in shares of PBG common stock and are calculated on a one unit for one share basis.  The vesting with respect to these RSUs is contingent upon the achievement of a pre-established 2009 earnings per share performance target as well as continued employment through March 1, 2012.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">This number includes 291 RSUs accumulated as a result of dividend equivalents credited to the reporting person on January 2, 2009 at the same time and in the same amount as dividends were paid to shareholders of common stock in accordance with the agreement governing the reporting person's RSU awards.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F4">Reflects the number of shares of PBG common stock attributed to the reporting person based on his holdings in the PBG common stock fund of the PBG 401(k) Plan as of March 1, 2009. The number of shares was calculated by dividing the dollar value of the reporting person's holdings in such fund by the closing price of PBG common stock on March 1, 2009.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F5">The stock options become exercisable as follows:  33% on March 1, 2010; 33% on March 1, 2011; and 34% on March 1, 2012.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F6">There is no price for this derivative security.</footnote>
