This Amendment No. 35 amends and supplements the original Schedule 13D filed on May 18, 1987 by The Coca-Cola Company, as amended by Amendments 1 through 34 (the “Schedule 13D”).  Terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings given such terms in the Schedule 13D.

Item 4.    Purpose of the Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

The Coca-Cola Company invests in bottling operations such as Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated (“Coke Consolidated”) in order to maximize the strength and efficiency of its production, distribution and marketing systems around the world. In line with this bottling strategy, The Coca-Cola Company regularly reviews its options relating to its investments in bottling operations throughout the world, including its investment in Coke Consolidated.

As part of this review, The Coca-Cola Company and Coke Consolidated entered into the non-binding Letter of Intent attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 (the “Letter of Intent”) pursuant to which Coca-Cola Refreshments USA, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of The Coca-Cola Company (“CCR”), will grant Coke Consolidated in two phases certain exclusive rights for the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of The Coca-Cola Company-owned and -licensed beverage products in certain territories current served by CCR. The first phase of additional distribution territory expansion includes eastern and northern Virginia, most of Delaware, the entire State of Maryland, Washington DC, and parts of North Carolina, Pennsylvania and West Virginia (the “Next Phase Territories”). The second phase of additional territory expansion includes central and southern Ohio, northern Kentucky and parts of Indiana and Illinois (the “Subsequent Phase Territories” and together with the Next Phase Territories, the “Additional Territories”). The Additional Territories include the following major markets: Baltimore, MD; Alexandria, Norfolk and Richmond, VA; Washington, DC; Cincinnati, Columbus and Dayton, OH; and Indianapolis, IN.

The expansion of Coke Consolidated’s distribution territories contemplated by the Letter of Intent follows Coke Consolidated’s completion on May 1, 2015 of a series of territory expansion transactions with CCR (the “Completed Phase Territories”), which were covered by the non-binding letter of intent dated April 15, 2013.

The exclusive rights for the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of The Coca-Cola Company-owned and -licensed products in the Next Phase Territories will be granted by CCR to Coke Consolidated initially pursuant to a comprehensive beverage agreement substantially in the form currently in effect in the Completed Phase Territories, a form of which was filed as an exhibit to Exhibit 99.2 to Amendment No. 28 to the Schedule 13D.

The exclusive rights for the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of The Coca-Cola Company-owned and -licensed products in the Subsequent Phase Territories will be granted by CCR to the Company pursuant to a final form of comprehensive beverage agreement the parties are currently negotiating (the “Final CBA”). The parties are also negotiating the process, timing and other terms and conditions related to implementation of the Final CBA throughout Coke Consolidated’s distribution territories in the United States, including the Completed Phase Territories, the Next Phase Territories and the geographic territories Coke Consolidated has historically served and continues to serve under other bottling and distribution agreements.

The proposed territory expansion transactions described in the Letter of Intent are subject to the terms of one or more definitive purchase and sale agreements in a form to be mutually agreed by the parties, as more fully described in the Letter of Intent. There is no assurance that such definitive agreements will be reached or that the proposed transactions contemplated by the Letter of Intent will occur.

6

In addition, The Coca-Cola Company from time to time may consider, evaluate and propose various other possible transactions involving Coke Consolidated or its subsidiaries, which could include, without limitation:

(a) the possible acquisition of additional securities of Coke Consolidated, or the disposition of securities of Coke Consolidated;

(b) possible extraordinary corporate transactions (such as a merger, consolidation or reorganization) involving Coke Consolidated or any of its subsidiaries, including with other bottling companies in which one or more of the Reporting Persons may have a direct or indirect equity interest; or

(c) the possible acquisition by Coke Consolidated or its subsidiaries of assets or interests in one or more bottling companies, including other bottling companies that may be subsidiaries of one or more of the Reporting Persons or in which one or more of the Reporting Persons may have a direct or indirect equity interest, or the possible sale of assets or bottling operations by Coke Consolidated or its subsidiaries.

Except as otherwise described herein, the Reporting Persons do not presently have any plans or proposals which relate to or would result in:

(a) the acquisition by any person of additional securities of Coke Consolidated, or the disposition of securities of Coke Consolidated;

(b) an extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving Coke Consolidated or any of its subsidiaries;

(c) a sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of Coke Consolidated or any of its subsidiaries;

(d) any change in the present board of directors or management of Coke Consolidated, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board;

(e) any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of Coke Consolidated;

(f) any other material change in Coke Consolidated’s business or corporate structure;

(g) changes in Coke Consolidated’s charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of Coke Consolidated by any person;

(h) causing a class of securities of Coke Consolidated to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association;

(i) a class of equity securities of Coke Consolidated becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or

(j) any action similar to any of those enumerated above.

The foregoing description of the Letter of Intent is only a summary and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Letter of Intent (and any exhibits thereto), which is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.2 to this Amendment No. 35 to the Schedule 13D.

Dear Frank:

Congratulations on your company’s successful completion of Lead Market territory transactions. During 2014 and the first half of 2015, we made great strides together in implementing the 21^st century beverage model for sustained competitive advantage for our respective companies. We look forward to working closely with you and your team to continue our successful collaboration and joint work to date. It goes without saying that we very much appreciate the invaluable System leadership demonstrated by you and your company throughout this process.

During recent alignment sessions we have discussed the continued refinement and implementation of the new operating model in depth, and we believe that we are poised for continued success in 2015 and beyond. To that end, this letter (this “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, will grant certain exclusive territory rights and sell certain assets to Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated (“Bottler”) in connection with the contemplated transactions with respect to certain additional geographic territories (the “Sub-Bottling Territory Transactions”), as further described below:

1.      Grant of Exclusive Territory Rights for TCCC Beverages & Comprehensive Beverage Agreement. CCR will grant Bottler certain exclusive rights for the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of TCCC-owned and –licensed beverage products in the geographic area described in Exhibit A (the “Next Phase Territory”) and Exhibit B (the “Subsequent Phase Territory”). Such rights will be granted in the Next Phase Territory initially via a Comprehensive Beverage Agreement (the “Lead Market CBA”) among TCCC, CCR and Bottler in the form currently in effect in the Lead Market Territories (as used herein, the term “Lead Market Territories” refers to the exclusive distribution territories that were transferred/granted to Bottler by CCR during 2014 and the first half of 2015). Such rights will be granted in the Subsequent Phase Territory via the final form of CBA (the “CBA”) pursuant to the process described in Section 11 below. The Next Phase Territory and the Subsequent Phase Territory are collectively referred to herein as the “Sub-Bottling Territory.” The grant of exclusive territory rights for the Sub-Bottling Territory will not include the right to produce the Covered Beverages or the Related Products (as those terms are defined in the Lead Market CBA).

2.      Sale of Exclusive Territory Rights for Certain Cross-Licensed Brands. CCR will also sell, transfer and assign to Bottler certain exclusive territory rights for the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale in the Sub-Bottling Territory of the cross-licensed brands (if any) then distributed by CCR in the Sub-Bottling 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 of the exclusive territory rights referred to in the two preceding sections, CCR will sell, transfer and assign to Bottler 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 Sub-Bottling Territory and as will be more particularly described in the Definitive Agreement.

4.       Product Supply Arrangements. The parties are currently discussing a mutually agreeable Finished Goods Supply Agreement (“FGSA”) to take effect in the Sub-Bottling Territory as of the date of the Closing of the Sub-Bottling Territory Transactions. They anticipate that such arrangement will be generally consistent with their existing product supply arrangements, with such enhancements and refinements as are mutually agreed by the parties (including, without limitation, the implementation of a national product supply system with such provisions regarding asset ownership, management provisions and System governance mechanisms as the parties may mutually agree).

5.      Execution of Lead Market CBA and FGSA for Territory. As part of the transactions described in this Letter of Intent, the parties will execute the Lead Market CBA to govern initially the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of TCCC-owned and –licensed beverage products in the Next Phase Territory, and will execute the CBA to govern such activity in the Subsequent Phase Territory. In addition, Bottler will execute a FGSA for the Sub-Bottling Territory. Although the Lead Market CBA and CBA do not authorize Bottler to produce the Covered Beverages or the Related Products in the Sub-Bottling Territory, the parties anticipate that if the parties mutually agree that Bottler should produce the Covered Beverages or the Related Products in the Sub-Bottling Territory, applicable production rights would be granted under a mutually satisfactory Manufacturing Agreement.

6.       Implementation of CONA and Anticipated Formation of New IT Services Entity. As part of the Sub-Bottling Territory Transactions, Bottler and CCR intend to implement the CONA information technology platform throughout Bottler’s distribution territories for Coca-Cola products (i.e., all of Bottler’s geographic territories in the United States other than the Lead Market Territory and the Sub-Bottling Territory (the “Legacy Territory”), as well as the Lead Market Territory and the Sub-Bottling Territory). The parties anticipate that Bottler’s implementation of CONA will be consistent with their ongoing discussions on this topic and will include Bottler’s participation in and part ownership of a new IT services entity (“NewCo”). The parties anticipate that NewCo will provide IT services to Bottler, CCR and its other bottler owners/members on mutually acceptable terms, which terms are consistent with their discussions to date.

7.      Participation in System Governance Activities. As part of the Sub-Bottling Territory Transactions, Bottler and CCR/TCCC intend to implement binding System governance with effect throughout all of Bottler’s distribution territories for Coca-Cola products, to become fully effective during 2016. The parties anticipate that their implementation of System governance will be consistent with their ongoing discussions on this topic, and will include a detailed joint plan for transitioning from current System governance routines and mechanisms to future System governance routines and mechanisms.

8.      Economic Participation. As part of the Sub-Bottling Territory Transactions, Bottler, CCR and TCCC intend to engage in good faith discussions to document the process pursuant to which TCCC will make commercially reasonable offer(s) for Bottler to be provided opportunities to participate economically in (a) the U.S. existing non-DSD businesses, and (b) future non-DSD products and/or business models. The parties are committed to continuing their good faith discussions on this topic.

9.      Definitive Agreement. The transactions described in this Letter of Intent will be subject to the terms of a definitive purchase and sale agreement(s) (whether one or more, the “Definitive Agreement”) in a form that is substantially the same as for the Lead Market definitive agreements. The parties anticipate that they will attach to and reference in the Definitive Agreement (i) the form of FGSA to apply to all Sub-Bottling Territory, (ii) the form of Lead Market CBA to apply to the Next Phase Territory, and (iii) the form of the CBA to apply to the Subsequent Phase Territory. For ease of transition and to manage resources effectively, the parties may mutually agree in the Definitive Agreement to implement the Sub-Bottling Territory Transactions via a series of separate closings and transitions.

10.      Economic Consideration for Sub-Bottling Territory Transactions. 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, Bottler will pay to CCR: (a) a cash amount that reflects (i) the agreed value of the exclusive territory rights for certain of the Cross-Licensed Brands (including the distribution assets and working capital applicable thereto), and (ii) the net book value of the other distribution assets and working capital, which amount will be payable to CCR at the closing of the Sub-Bottling Territory Transactions (the “Closing”); and (b) sub-bottling payments for the grant of exclusive rights for the distribution, promotion, marketing and sale of Covered Beverages and Related Products in the Sub-Bottling Territory, which payments will be made to CCR on a regular basis after the Closing. The calculation of such amounts to be paid, and any adjustments to those amounts, will be determined in the same manner as in the Lead Market transaction. Economic consideration hereunder may also include the like-kind value of exchanged or “swapped” territory, as mutually agreed by the parties.

11.      Implementation of Final Form of Comprehensive Beverage Agreement. The parties are currently engaged in good faith negotiations regarding a final form of CBA to take effect in the future under certain circumstances throughout Bottler’s Legacy Territory, Lead Market Territories and the Sub-Bottling Territories. The parties are committed to continuing such negotiations in good faith and to completing the mutually agreed form of the CBA on or before the execution of the Definitive Agreement for the Next Phase Territory transaction.  The parties will document separately their mutual agreement regarding the process, timing and other terms and conditions related to implementation of the CBA throughout Bottler’s territories in a legally binding agreement.  This separate agreement will be executed by the parties as soon as is practicable, but in any event no later than their execution of the Definitive Agreement for the Next Phase Territory transaction. 

12.      Conditions to Closing. Each of TCCC and Bottler intend for conditions substantially the same as for the Lead Market definitive agreements, and for the following express conditions, to be satisfied prior to the Closing and/or to be addressed in the Definitive Agreement for the Next Phase Territory transaction and/or the Subsequent Phase Territory transaction:
