Attention: J. Frank Harrison III, Chairman

Dear Frank:

This letter (“Letter of Intent”) sets forth the general terms and conditions pursuant to which Coca‑Cola Refreshments USA, Inc. (“CCR”), a wholly owned subsidiary of The Coca‑Cola Company (“TCCC”), or one of its affiliates, would grant certain exclusive territory rights and sell certain assets to Coca‑Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated (“Coke Consolidated”), as set forth below:

1.    Grant of Exclusive Territory Rights for TCCC Beverages & Comprehensive Beverage Agreement. CCR will grant Coke Consolidated certain exclusive territory rights for the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale in the Territory (as defined below) of TCCC-owned and -licensed beverage products. Such rights will be granted via a “Comprehensive Beverage Agreement” among TCCC, CCR and Coke Consolidated in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Comprehensive Beverage Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Comprehensive Beverage Agreement, CCR will grant Coke Consolidated certain exclusive rights to distribute, promote, market and sell the Covered Beverages and Related Products distinguished by the Trademarks (as those terms are defined in the Comprehensive Beverage Agreement) in the geographic area described in Exhibit B (the “Territory”). Such grant of exclusive territory rights will not include the right to produce the Covered Beverages or the Related Products.

2.    Sale of Exclusive Territory Rights for Certain Cross-Licensed Brands. CCR will also sell, transfer and assign to Coke Consolidated (or will cause to be sold, transferred or assigned) certain exclusive territory rights for the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale in the Territory of the cross-licensed brands currently distributed by CCR in the Territory (the “Cross‑Licensed Brands”). Such sale, transfer and assignment will be via such agreements as are mutually agreed by the parties, including the Definitive Agreement (as defined below), and will be subject to the consent of third party brand owners.

3.    Sale of Distribution Assets and Working Capital. In connection with the grant and sale of the exclusive territory rights referred to in the preceding two sections, CCR will sell, transfer and assign to Coke Consolidated certain distribution assets and the working capital associated therewith, all as may be necessary to distribute, promote, market and sell the Covered Beverages, Related Products and Cross-Licensed Brands in the Territory and as will be more particularly described in the Definitive Agreement.

4.    Definitive Agreement. The transactions described in this Letter of Intent will be subject to the terms of a definitive purchase and sale agreement (the “Definitive Agreement”) in a form to be mutually agreed by the parties. The Definitive Agreement will contain such terms and conditions (including, without limitation, conditions of purchase and sale, representations and warranties, covenants, indemnities, and ancillary and related agreements) as may be necessary for the successful consummation of the transaction and as are customary for transactions of this size and complexity.

5.    Economic Consideration. In exchange for the grant of exclusive territory rights for the Covered Beverages and Related Products, the sale of distribution rights for the Cross‑Licensed Brands, and the sale of the distribution assets and working capital as described above, Coke Consolidated will pay to CCR: (a) a cash amount that reflects the agreed value of the exclusive territory rights for the Cross-Licensed Brands and the net book value of the distribution assets and working capital, which amount will be payable to CCR at the closing of the transactions contemplated hereby (the “Closing”); and (b) sub-bottling payments for the grant of exclusive territory rights for Covered Beverages and Related Products, which payments will be made to CCR on a regular basis after the Closing. Such amounts to be paid will be determined by the application of valuation principles which are customary in the soft drink industry (e.g., application of an EBITDA multiple to determine the brand business values, and the use of net book values for the distribution assets and working capital). Economic consideration hereunder may also include the like-kind value of exchanged or “swapped” territory, as mutually agreed by the parties. Although the parties are aligned on these high-level valuation principles and methodologies, the actual amounts due can only be determined by application of certain sales, profitability and other data at the time of the Closing and, in some cases, thereafter. All calculations and adjustments which may be necessary to determine the foregoing economic consideration as of and after the Closing shall be made and determined in the manner set forth in the Definitive Agreement or the Comprehensive Beverage Agreement, as applicable.

6.    Conditions to Closing. Each of TCCC and Coke Consolidated intend for the following express conditions to be satisfied prior to the Closing and/or to be addressed in the Definitive Agreement:

(a)The parties will engage in such pre-Closing activities related to governance, product supply, information technology and shared services as they deem to be necessary and appropriate prior to the Closing, including, without limitation, the negotiation, execution and delivery to each party's reasonable satisfaction of any agreements or other documents as may be required to operate the Territory as of and after the Closing;

(b)The parties will have entered into such service arrangements, whether transitional or permanent in nature, as shall be deemed necessary by mutual agreement of the parties to operate the Territory as of and after the Closing. Such service arrangements could include, without limitation, services related to customer care, finance, accounting or human resource support as necessary to assure the smooth transition of the Territory to Coke Consolidated;

(f)Coke Consolidated will have performed to its reasonable satisfaction such due diligence on the business and operations in the Territory as is customary for a transaction of this nature and complexity including, without limitation, in the areas of finance, operations, environmental, legal, tax, employees and human resources; and

(g)The parties will have performed and complied with such other terms and conditions as are customary for transactions of this nature and complexity and as will be more fully set forth in the Definitive Agreement, including, without limitation, the grant, assignment and/or transfer of such bottling agreements, licenses and other agreements as may be necessary to operate the business in the Territory in the manner in which it is operated as of the Closing.

2. Except as may be provided in this Agreement or as provided by the other party's prior written consent, neither Company, CCR, nor any other of Company's Affiliates will sell or distribute, or authorize any other party to sell or distribute, Covered Beverages or Related Products in the Territory; and Bottler will not authorize any wholesalers or other distributors to sell or distribute, within or outside the Territory, Covered Beverages or Related Products supplied to Bottler under the Agency Sales Agreement; provided, however, that Bottler may sell Covered Beverages and Related Products supplied to Bottler under the Agency Sales Agreement to Full Line Operators in the Territory for further distribution of such Covered Beverages and Related Products by such Full Line Operators in the Territory.

a. Company reserves the right to market, promote, distribute and sell, or authorize others to market, promote, distribute and sell, in the Territory (i) any Covered Beverage, Related Product, or other product that is identified through the Governance Process as an “Alternate Route to Market Beverage,” and (ii) any Covered Beverage, Related Product or other product in any sales channel or to any customer that is identified by the Governance Process as an “Alternate Route to Market Channel” or “Alternate Route to Market Customer.” The exception to Paragraph 2 for an Alternate Route to Market Beverage, Alternate Route to Market Channel or Alternate Route to Market Customer will apply only to the extent and for the time period determined and specified by Governance Process.

b. Company and Bottler acknowledge that the sale of certain Covered Beverages or Related Products to certain customers or distributors in the Territory may be required under pre-existing contractual commitments as identified on Schedule 2, and Company and Bottler agree that such sale or distribution may continue until the expiration of such contractual commitments (but neither Company nor any of its Affiliates will exercise any voluntary rights to extend or renew the term of any such contractual commitments, and, if an agreement provides for automatic renewal, Company will use good faith efforts to provide a notice of termination rather than allow the agreement to automatically renew, if Company may do so without breaching the agreement or incurring any penalties).

c. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Paragraph 2, Company and Bottler agree that once an Incubation Beverage ceases to meet the criteria for Incubation Beverage (i.e., by achieving sales

Confidential

6

volume nationally of at least twelve (12) million physical cases and annual sales revenue of at least $100 million USD in the immediately preceding 12 month period), such beverage will be treated as a New Beverage Product subject to the provisions of Paragraph 5 of this Agreement. To facilitate this transition, Company and Bottler will, as applicable (i) terminate (without compensation or liability to one another) any agreement relating to the distribution, promotion, marketing, or sale of such beverage binding only Company (or one of its Affiliates) and Bottler; or (ii) negotiate in good faith, on terms mutually agreeable to Company and Bottler, the termination of any such agreement binding on any party other than Company (or one of its Affiliates) and Bottler.

3. If Bottler identifies any Beverage offered by a third party in a beverage category for which there is likely substantial demand in the Territory and in which category Company does not have a current or proposed entry, Company will, at Bottler's request, evaluate such Beverage, and may, in Company's sole discretion, negotiate a licensing or other business arrangement with such third party that would facilitate distribution and sale of such Beverage in the Territory on terms acceptable to Company and Bottler.

4. Company has the sole and exclusive right and discretion to reformulate any of the Covered Beverages or Related Products.

5. If Company or any Affiliate of Company proposes to sell or distribute, or authorize the sale or distribution of, any New Beverage Product in the Territory:

Bottler's option under this Paragraph 5(a) must be exercised by Bottler, if at all, by giving Company written notice of such election within sixty (60) days following the date on which Company notifies Bottler in writing that Company intends to introduce the New Beverage Product in the Territory and provides Bottler with an operating plan for, and samples of, the New Beverage Product. If Bottler gives Company timely notice of Bottler's exercise of such option with respect to a New Beverage Product within such sixty (60) day period, then, in the case of a new Beverage, Exhibit A will be deemed automatically amended by adding such new Beverage to the list of Covered Beverages set forth on Exhibit A, and, in the case of a new Related Product, Exhibit G will be deemed automatically amended by adding such new Related Product to the list of Related Products set forth on Exhibit G. If Bottler does not give Company timely notice of Bottler's exercise of such option within such period, then Company will have the right to market, promote, distribute and sell or authorize others to market, promote, distribute and sell, in the Territory and otherwise undertake any activity with respect to that New Beverage Product, including use of the Trademarks in connection with the distribution, promotion, marketing, and sale of the New Beverage Product in the Territory. If a New Beverage Product is not owned by Company, then the parties may enter into a separate agreement with respect to the distribution and sale of that New Beverage Product in the Territory.

b.If Company or one of its Affiliates acquires or licenses a New Beverage Product that becomes a Covered Beverage or Related Product under this Paragraph 5, then Bottler's rights to market, promote, distribute and sell such new Covered Beverage or Related Product will be subject to the terms of any agreements with third parties (including distribution agreements) that may be in effect as of the time that Company (or Company's Affiliate) acquires or licenses the new Covered Beverage or the new Related Product. Company and Bottler will, as applicable, (i) terminate (without compensation or liability to one another) any agreement relating to the distribution, promotion, marketing or sale of such New Beverage Product binding only Company (or one of its Affiliates) and Bottler (or one of its Affiliates), or (ii) negotiate in good faith, on terms mutually agreeable to Company and Bottler, the termination of any such agreement binding on any party other than Company (or one of its Affiliates) and Bottler (or one of its Affiliates).

c.Bottler and Company acknowledge that a New Beverage Product may constitute a Multiple Route to Market Beverage. Bottler will be the sole and exclusive distributor of the Multiple Route to Market Beverage via Direct Store Delivery in the Territory. However, Company may also distribute the Multiple Route to Market Beverage in the Territory via means other than Direct Store Delivery, and Company may authorize third parties to distribute the Multiple Route to Market Beverage in the Territory via means other than Direct Store Delivery. A “Multiple Route to Market Beverage” means a New Beverage Product that Company determines, in its sole discretion, will be distributed in the Territory through both Direct Store Delivery and other means. “Multiple Route to Market Beverage” will not include a Line Extension of an existing Covered Beverage or Related Product or an SKU or package of an existing Covered Beverage or Related Product.

6. Company has the sole and exclusive right and discretion to discontinue, on a temporary or permanent basis, any of the Covered Beverages or Related Products under this Agreement provided (i) any such Covered Beverage is discontinued for all Expanding Participating Bottlers in the United States, and (ii) Company does not discontinue all Covered Beverages under this Agreement. If Company discontinues all SKUs and packages of any Covered Beverage, Exhibit A will be deemed automatically amended by deleting the discontinued Covered Beverage from the list of Covered Beverages. If Company discontinues all SKUs and packages of any Related Product, Exhibit G will be deemed automatically amended by deleting the discontinued Related Product from the list of Related Products. This right must be exercised by Company, if at all, by giving ninety (90) days' prior written notice to Bottler of such discontinuation. If Company discontinues a Covered Beverage or Related Product as contemplated under this Paragraph 6, 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 written notice of the discontinuation of such Covered Beverage or Related Product. If Company proposes to reintroduce any such discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product (or reintroduce a Line Extension of a Covered Beverage that is a discontinued Covered Beverage) through any channel of retail distribution and sale in the United States of America, such product shall first be offered to the Bottler under Paragraph 5 (except that such Beverage may not be designated by Company as a Multiple Route to Market Beverage under Paragraph 5(c)). 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 (a “Transferee”) within twelve (12) months following the date which is the later of (x) 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 (y) 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 such discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product to Bottler under Paragraph 5, and 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), and Bottler's distribution rights with respect to the discontinued Covered Beverage or Related Product will be binding upon the Transferee.

7. Bottler has the right to discontinue the 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). This right must be exercised by Bottler, if at all, by giving ninety (90) days' prior written notice to Company of such discontinuation, specifying that the notice of discontinuation applies to all of the Territory. Upon expiration of such ninety (90) day period, Bottler may cease the distribution, promotion, marketing, 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

Confidential

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 G 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, set forth on Exhibit A or Exhibit G. If (and only if) Bottler discontinues all Line Extensions, SKUs and packages of a Covered Beverage or Related Product, 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. Further, Bottler has the right to discontinue the distribution and sale of any Line Extension, SKU or package in any portion of the Territory without providing prior written notice to Company, and 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. 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.

8. 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 further agrees to make every reasonable effort to amicably settle any disputes that arise with such other parties.

9. Bottler must not distribute or sell any Covered Beverages or Related Products supplied to Bottler under the Agency Sales Agreement outside of the Territory. Bottler must not sell any of such Covered Beverages or Related Products 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.

a. If any of such Covered Beverages or Related Products distributed or sold by Bottler are found in the territory of another authorized 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 Paragraph 9 with respect to the transshipment of Covered Beverages or Related Products, Bottler shall only be deemed to be a “Transshipping Bottler” if Bottler knew or should have known that the purchaser would redistribute the Covered Beverage or Related Product outside of the Territory prior to ultimate sale. 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 authorized 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 authorized 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 Paragraph 9 with respect to the transshipment of Company's products, Bottler will only be deemed to be an “Injured Bottler” if such bottler knew or should have known that the purchaser would redistribute the products outside of such bottler's territory prior to ultimate sale. If Company does not have sufficient contractual rights to fully implement the transshipping remedies provided for in this Paragraph 9, Company will nevertheless use reasonable efforts to enforce its transshipping policy against the transshipping bottler to (i) prevent future transshipments, and (ii) cause the transshipping bottler to compensate Bottler to the extent possible. 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)).

b. In addition to all other remedies Company may have against Transshipping Bottler for violation of this Paragraph 9, 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:

i. (A) charge any Transshipping Bottler an amount equal to three 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 as reasonably requested by Company; or (B) 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; and

ii. 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 sale and distribution 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.

c. Bottler, CCR, and Company acknowledge and agree that the amounts provided for under Paragraph 9(b) reasonably reflect the damages to Company, the Injured Bottler, and the Coca-Cola system. Transshipping Bottler must promptly pay to Company all amounts charged pursuant to this Paragraph 9. The Injured Bottler will be paid when Company has received payment from Transshipping Bottler and will be paid an amount not less than seventy percent (70%) of the amount recovered by Company from the Transshipping Bottler under Paragraph 9(b)(i). Company has the right to collect any amounts payable by Transshipping Bottler under this Paragraph 9 by offset against any undisputed amounts otherwise payable to Transshipping Bottler by Company.

d. 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.

e. If Company determines that a customer of Bottler has repeatedly transshipped Covered Beverages or Related Products supplied to Bottler under the Agency Sales Agreement 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.

10. Company has the unrestricted right, in its sole discretion, to use the Trademarks on the Covered Beverages and Related Products and on all other products and merchandise, to determine which Trademarks will be used on which Covered Beverages and Related Products, and to determine how the Trademarks will be displayed and used on and in connection with the Covered Beverages and Related Products.

11. Company reserves all rights not expressly granted to Bottler under this Agreement or Related Agreements.

12. If Company or a Company Affiliate on or after [date] (a) enters into a new authorization agreement with respect to territories in the United States of America with another Expanding Participating Bottler that is

10

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 with respect to 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, in its entirety, to Bottler. 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. The foregoing obligation shall not apply to any consent, waiver or approval provided under this Agreement or under any agreement held by another Expanding Participating Bottler. If CCR grants to Bottler after the Effective Date the rights to distribute, promote, market, and sell Covered Beverages and Related Products under the Trademarks in additional geographic territories under the terms of a different form of agreement, this Agreement shall be amended and restated in the form of the agreement reflecting such additional grant. [Note: specify same date as used for definition of Expanding Participating Bottler]

IV. GRANT BY CCR OF SUBLICENSE TO USE THE TRADEMARKS AND OBLIGATIONS OF BOTTLER RELATIVE TO THE TRADEMARKS AND OTHER MATTERS

13. Bottler acknowledges and agrees that Company is the sole and exclusive owner of all rights, title and interest in and to the Trademarks. Bottler agrees not to dispute the validity of the Trademarks or their exclusive ownership by Company either during the Term or thereafter, notwithstanding any applicable doctrines of licensee estoppel. CCR grants to Bottler only an exclusive, royalty-free license to use the Trademarks, solely in connection with the distribution, promotion, marketing, and sale of the Covered Beverages and Related Products in the Territory, and in accordance with standards adopted and issued by Company from time to time, and made available to Bottler through written, electronic, on-line or other form or media, subject to the rights reserved to Company under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement, nor any act or failure to act by Bottler, CCR or Company, will give Bottler any proprietary or ownership interest of any kind in the Trademarks or in the goodwill associated therewith. CCR and Bottler acknowledge and agree that all use by Bottler of the Trademarks will inure to the benefit of Company.

14. Bottler covenants and agrees (subject to any requirements imposed upon Bottler under applicable law):

a.Not to produce, manufacture, prepare, package, distribute, sell, deal in or otherwise use or handle:

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

ii. during the Term and for an additional period of two 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) 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) in the Territory;

iii. 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;

11

iv. 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 in the Territory as a product of Company because of Bottler's association with the business of distributing and selling the Covered Beverages and Related Products; or

v. any Beverage, Beverage Component, or other beverage product in the Territory;

provided, however, that Bottler and its Affiliates may produce, manufacture, prepare, package, distribute, sell, deal in or otherwise use or handle (as applicable):

(1) Covered Beverages and Related Products, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Related Agreement,

(2) Beverages, Beverage Components and other beverage products, if and to the extent required in order for Bottler or any of its Affiliates to comply with its obligations under any separate written agreement with Company or any of its Affiliates,

(3) Beverages, Beverage Components and other beverage products identified on Schedule 14(a) (“Permitted Beverage Products”), including (A) any Beverages, Beverage Components and other beverage products as to which Company hereafter provides prior written consent (which consent will result in the amendment of Schedule 14(a) to include such approved Beverages, Beverage Components and other beverage products), and (B) any line extension of a Permitted Beverage Product, which, solely for purposes of this Paragraph 14(a)(3), means a beverage product introduced by the licensor of the Permitted Beverage Product after the Effective Date, that is identified by the primary trademark that also identifies the Permitted Beverage Product, together with a modification of such trademark (i.e., the addition of a prefix, suffix or other modifier used in conjunction with any such trademark), including a flavor, calorie or other variation of such Permitted Beverage Product that in the reasonable judgment of Company is marketed in the same beverage category as the Permitted Beverage Product, and/or

(4) Beverages, Beverage Components and other beverage products handled, distributed or sold by Bottler in connection with an ancillary business identified on Schedule 14(a), including any ancillary business as to which Company hereafter provides prior written consent (which consent will result in the amendment of Schedule 14(a) to include such approved ancillary business). For this purpose, Company will not unreasonably withhold its consent to a proposed ancillary business that (i) is not directly and primarily involved in the manufacture, marketing, promotion, distribution or sale of Beverages, Beverage Components and other beverage products (e.g., sale, lease or servicing of equipment used in the distribution of beverages to third parties), or (ii) provides office coffee service to offices or facilities.

b.Not to acquire or hold directly or indirectly through any Affiliate any ownership interest in any person or entity that engages in the Territory in any of the activities prohibited under Paragraphs 14(a)(i) - 14(a)(v) (as subject to the exceptions in Paragraph 14(a)), and not enter into any contract or arrangement with respect to the management or control of any person or legal entity that would enable Bottler or any Affiliate of Bottler acting collectively with such person or legal entity to indirectly engage in the Territory in any of the activities prohibited under Paragraphs 14(a)(i) - 14(a)(v) (as subject to the exceptions in Paragraph 14(a)); provided, that Bottler and its Affiliates will 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 Paragraphs 14(a)(i) - 14(a)(v) (as subject to the exceptions in

Paragraph 14(a)), 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, so long as 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; or

c.Not to use in the Territory any delivery vehicles, cases, cartons, coolers, vending machines or other equipment bearing Company's Trademarks in connection with any line of business in the Territory other than the distribution and sale of Covered Beverages and Related Products or assign personnel or management whose primary duties relate to delivery or sales of Covered Beverages or Related Products in the Territory (other than executive officers of Bottler) to any line of business in the Territory other than the distribution, promotion, marketing, and sale of Covered Beverages and Related Products; provided, however, that:

i. any of Bottler's assets and personnel or management whose primary duties relate to delivery or sales of Covered Beverages or Related Products within the Territory may be used in (A) a permitted line of business listed on Schedule 14(c), including any line of business as to which Company hereafter provides prior written consent, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld by Company and will result in the amendment of Schedule 14(c) to include such approved line of business, or (B) a business that is otherwise expressly permitted under Paragraph 14(a)(1) - (4) (collectively, “Approved Lines of Business”), and Bottler may engage in Approved Lines of Business anywhere within (or, as applicable, outside of) Bottler's Territory without further approvals from Company; and

ii. 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 in the Territory that would otherwise be prohibited by Paragraph 14(a) or Paragraph 14(c) 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). In such circumstances, Bottler agrees to use best efforts to comply with Paragraph 14(a) and Paragraph 14(c); provided however that Company consents to delivery by Bottler of a de minimis volume of such products to such customers in the Territory to the extent that, despite Bottler's best efforts to satisfy customer demand for Covered Beverages and Related Products consistent with Paragraphs 14(a) and Paragraph 14(c), such customers nonetheless require such delivery by Bottler to meet competition. 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 Paragraph 14(c)(ii) (including information regarding the nature of the competitive threat and the volumes of product involved).

15. Except as set forth on Schedule 15 or as otherwise permitted under separate written agreement between Bottler and Company or a Company Affiliate, Bottler must not adopt or use any name, corporate name, trading name, title of establishment or other commercial designation or logo that includes the words “Coca-Cola”, “Coca”, “Cola”, “Coke”, or any of them, or any word, name or designation that is confusingly similar to any of them, or any graphic or visual representation of the Trademarks or any other Trademark or intellectual property owned by Company, without the prior written consent of Company, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld and will be contingent on Bottler's compliance with this Agreement.

16. Bottler, recognizing the important benefit to the Trademarks, to the successful marketing of the Covered Beverages, Related Products, and to the Coca-Cola system of a uniform external appearance of the distribution and other equipment and materials used under this Agreement, agrees to the extent such Trademarks are utilized by Bottler in the Territory to accept and within a reasonable period of time apply any new or modified standards adopted and issued from time to time by Company that are generally applicable, and made available to Bottler through written, electronic, on-line or other form or media for the design and decoration of trucks and other delivery vehicles, cases, cartons, coolers, vending machines and other materials and equipment that bear such Trademarks and are used in the distribution, promotion, marketing, and sale of Covered Beverages and Related Products in the Territory. If Company changes such standards, the new standards will apply to any such assets acquired by Bottler following notice of the change in standards to the extent Bottler uses the trademark on such assets in the Territory, and will be applied to such existing assets in the normal course of Bottler's business (e.g., trucks would be repainted consistent with normal maintenance cycles).

V. OBLIGATIONS OF BOTTLER RELATIVE TO DISTRIBUTION, SALES, MARKETING, COMMERCIAL, MANAGEMENT, REPORTING AND PLANNING ACTIVITIES

17. Bottler will:

The change in price so rejected by Bottler shall not apply to purchases of Covered Beverages and Related Products by Bottler during such ninety (90) day period preceding termination. Failure by Bottler to notify Company and CCR of its rejection of the changes in price or such other terms and conditions shall be deemed acceptance thereof by Bottler.

VIII. OWNERSHIP AND CONTROL OF BOTTLER

Company that, prior to execution of this Agreement, Bottler has made available to Company a complete and accurate list of any of Bottler's owners that own more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding securities of Bottler, and/or of any third parties having a right to, or effective power of, control or management of Bottler. Bottler covenants and agrees:

a.    to inform Company without delay of any changes in the record ownership (or, if known to Bottler, any change in the Beneficial Ownership) of more than 10% of the shares of Bottler's outstanding equity interests in a transaction or series of related transactions, provided, that if Bottler is subject to the disclosure and reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this provision shall not apply; and

b.    not to change its legal form of organization without first obtaining the written consent of Company, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. It is understood and agreed that Company will not withhold its consent unless the change in legal form could reasonably be expected to affect Bottler's obligations under this Agreement. For this purpose, (i) the making of an election to be taxed as a Subchapter S corporation for federal income tax purposes, or termination of such an election, and/or (ii) reincorporation in another state within the United States of America, will not be considered a change in Bottler's legal form of organization and will not require Company's consent.

b.    Not to delegate any material element of Bottler's performance under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any third party or parties without the prior written consent of Company.

c.    Any attempt to take such actions prohibited by this Paragraph 27 without such consent shall be void and shall be deemed to be a material breach of this Agreement.

d.    Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following shall be expressly permitted hereunder:

i. Bottler may, after written notice to Company, assign, transfer or pledge this Agreement or any interest herein, in whole or in part, or delegate any material element of Bottler's performance of this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any wholly-owned Affiliates of Bottler; provided that (a) any such Affiliate must agree in writing to be bound by and comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and (b) any such assignment, transfer, pledge or delegation will not relieve Bottler of any of its obligations under this Agreement; and

ii. Bottler may engage third party contractors and service providers for the purpose of receiving services relating to non-core functions (e.g., back-office administrative services, HR, payroll, information technology services and similar services); provided that (i) Bottler will retain full responsibility to Company for all of Bottler's obligations under this Agreement; and (ii) Bottler may not subcontract core functions (i.e., market/customer facing functions) without the prior consent of Company.

In the case of a Product Quality Issue, Bottler shall have a period of sixty (60) days within which to cure the default, including, at the instruction of Company, and at Bottler's expense, by the prompt withdrawal from the market and destruction of any affected Finished Product.

During such second sixty (60) day cure period, Company may supply, or cause or permit others to supply, Covered Beverages and Related Products in the Territory. If such Product Quality Issue has not been cured during the second sixty (60) day cure period, then Company may terminate this Agreement by giving Bottler written notice thereof. “Product Quality Issue” means a breach of Paragraph 18 or Paragraph 19 caused by a product quality issue involving the Covered Beverages or Related Products that results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Bottler and that materially and adversely affects one or more of the Trademarks.
