Proposal No. 2: Approval of share exchange agreement between the Company andMinami Kyushu Coca-Cola Bottling Co., Ltd.
The Company resolved at a meeting of the Board of Directors held on February 6, 2013 to carryout an exchange of shares with Minami Kyushu Coca-Cola Bottling Co., Ltd. (hereinafterreferred to as “Minami Kyushu CCBC”) to the effect that the Company shall become a wholly
owning parent company in share exchange and Minami Kyushu CCBC shall become a wholly
owned subsidiary in share exchange (hereinafter referred to as the “Share Exchange”). On thesame date, the Company and Minami Kyushu CCBC entered into an agreement concerning theexchange of shares (hereinafter referred to as “this Agreement”).
Therefore, we propose for this Agreement, which we have entered into, to be approved.
The effective date of the Share Exchange is scheduled to be April 1, 2013.
1. Reasons for share exchange
Since 1999, through management integration with Sanyo Coca-Cola Bottling Co., Ltd., Mikasa
Coca-Cola Bottling Co., Ltd. and Kinki Coca-Cola Bottling Co., Ltd., the Company has
expanded its area of operation into western Japan (excluding southern Kyushu and the Shikoku
region) and worked to improve corporate value. The Company has also taken the lead role intransforming the Coca-Cola business in Japan as a strategic partner of The Coca-Cola Companyof the US and Coca-Cola (Japan) Co., Ltd.
Meanwhile, since its establishment in August 1962, Minami Kyushu CCBC has operated insouthern Kyushu (Kumamoto Prefecture, Kagoshima Prefecture, Miyazaki Prefecture and Oita
Prefecture). During this time, Minami Kyushu CCBC has consistently operated as acommunity-based business under its corporate philosophy of “contributing to the lives of people
and the community through the beverage business.”
Since forming a financial and business alliance in March 2007, the Company and Minami
Kyushu CCBC have built up a cooperative relationship centered on marketing activities andsupply chain management in the Coca-Cola business. The two companies have also
strengthened the framework under which they deepen this business alliance by such means as
the exchange of personnel including officers and managers.
Nevertheless, in light of trends such as the diversification of consumer needs and increasing
spending restraint, distribution channels have changed and sales competition from rival
companies has intensified. This situation has contributed to an increasingly difficult businessenvironment for both companies, even after the financial and business alliance was formed.
Under these circumstances, the Company and Minami Kyushu CCBC have come to the shared- 13 -

conclusion that it is both necessary and the best outcome for the two companies and all theirstakeholders, including their customers, business partners and shareholders, for the Company tomake Minami Kyushu CCBC its wholly owned subsidiary, thus enhancing the corporate valueof the two companies by maximizing synergies and establishing their competitive superiority.
The two companies firmly believe that carrying out management integration by means of theCompany making Minami Kyushu CCBC its wholly owned subsidiary through this Share
Exchange will further strengthen the Coca-Cola business in western Japan (excluding the
Shikoku region). As such, the two main goals of the move are as described below.
The first goal is to establish competitive superiority in western Japan (excluding the Shikoku
region) by deploying marketing activities in unison under a sales strategy that is shared by theCompany and Minami Kyushu CCBC, which operates in southern Kyushu, while also
expanding market share and net sales, thus enhancing corporate value.
The second goal is to combine the sound and high-quality financial structures that bothcompanies possess, as well as their diverse human resources, and enhance efficiency andproductivity through integration and consolidation in all fields, particularly supply chains, thusbuilding a strong business foundation for continued growth in the future.
Furthermore, we believe that expanding the scope of the “eight innovations of business model”
which the Company has been carrying out, and implementing them at Minami Kyushu CCBC,
will contribute to growth in net sales and profits.

2) Basis of calculation
In order to ensure the fairness and the appropriateness of the share exchange ratio
concerning the Share Exchange, both companies respectively decided to request athird-party valuation institution, independent from both companies, to calculate theshare exchange ratio. The Company appointed Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley
Securities Co., Ltd. (“Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities”), and Minami
Kyushu CCBC appointed GCA Savvian Group Corporation (“GCA Savvian Group”)
as their respective third-party valuation institutions concerning the calculation of theshare exchange ratio.
In the calculation of the share exchange ratio concerning the Share Exchange,
Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities adopted the market share price analysis,
the similar companies comparison analysis, and the discounted cash flow analysis- 21 -

(the “DCF Analysis”) for the valuation of the shares of the Company, and adopted thesimilar companies comparison analysis and the DCF Analysis for the valuation of theshares of Minami Kyushu CCBC. In performing the market share price analysis of
the Company, Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities used February 1, 2013 as
the reference date, and reviewed the per share closing price trading data of theCompany on the reference date, and the 1-week average and 1-month average pershare closing prices through the reference date.
An overview of the results of the calculation of the share exchange ratio concerning
the Share Exchange by Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities is shown below.
The results of the calculation are shown by ranges by each analysis method assuming
the share value per share of the Company is set at one. However, Minami Kyushu
CCBC is an unlisted company and has no market share price. Therefore, the valuationof the shares of Minami Kyushu CCBC by the similar companies comparison
analysis, which is a valuation method focusing on market, was compared with andreferred to the valuation of the shares of the Company by the market share priceanalysis for determining the assessment range.

When calculating the share exchange ratio, Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley
Securities used information provided by the Company and Minami Kyushu CCBC
and publicly available information, assumed that all the materials and information
received were accurate and complete, and did not independently verify the accuracy
or completeness of the materials and information. In addition, Mitsubishi UFJ
Morgan Stanley Securities did not independently perform any valuation, appraisal orassessment of the assets or liabilities (including contingent liabilities) of theCompany, Minami Kyushu CCBC, and their subsidiaries and affiliates, including
analysis and valuation of individual assets and liabilities, and did not request athird-party valuation institution to perform such appraisal or assessment. Further, theresults of the calculation of the share exchange ratio by Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan
Stanley Securities reflected the information and economic conditions up until
February 1, 2013 and worked under the assumption that the financial forecasts of the- 22 -

Company and Minami Kyushu CCBC were examined or produced in a reasonable
manner using the best available information and judgments at the Company andMinami Kyushu CCBC at the time the forecasts were made.
In the earnings plans of the Company and Minami Kyushu CCBC prepared by bothcompanies, which were adopted as a basis of the DCF analysis by Mitsubishi UFJ
Morgan Stanley Securities, there were no business years in which a considerable
increase or decrease in earnings is expected. Further, the above calculation results are
based on the assumption that Minami Kyushu CCBC will acquire 600,000 own
shares in the procedures of acquiring own shares set forth in (3)(ii) below and the
distribution of dividends of the both companies will be conducted as planned in(3)(ii) and (4) below.

Meanwhile, as the shares of the Company, which is a listed company, are listed on
the Tokyo Stock Exchange, Inc., the Osaka Securities Exchange Co., Ltd. and the
Fukuoka Stock Exchange, and have market prices, GCA Savvian Group adopted theaverage market share price method for the valuation of the shares of the Company
using February 1, 2013 as the reference date, and reviewed the 1-week average,
1-month average and 3-month average per share closing prices through the reference
date. At the same time, GCA Savvian Group adopted the DCF method, which is able
to reflect the status of future business activities, for the valuation of the shares of theCompany. In addition, for the valuation of the shares of Minami Kyushu CCBC, as
there are multiple listed companies comparable with Minami Kyushu CCBC, which
is an unlisted company, GCA Savvian Group adopted the similar companies
comparison method as well as the DCF method, which is able to reflect the status of
future business activities. In the business plans of the Company and Minami Kyushu
CCBC, which were used for the calculation based on the DCF method by GCA
Savvian Group, there were no business years in which a considerable increase or
decrease in earnings is expected.

not independently verify their accuracy or completeness. In addition, GCA Savvian
Group did not independently perform any valuation, appraisal or assessment of theassets and liabilities (including off-book assets and liabilities and other contingent
liabilities) of both companies, and their subsidiaries and affiliates, including analysis
and valuation of individual assets and liabilities, and did not request a third-party
institution to perform such appraisal or assessment.
Further, the above calculation results are based on the assumption that Minami
Kyushu CCBC will acquire 600,000 own shares in the procedures of acquiring own

5) Measures to ensure fairness

request third-party valuation institutions independent of both companies to calculate
the share exchange ratio, the calculation results of which were submitted to andreceived by both companies in order to ensure the fairness and the appropriateness of
the Share Exchange Ratio concerning the Share Exchange. Both companies referredto the calculation results, reviewed, negotiated and consulted with each otherregarding the matter, and accordingly decided to implement the Share Exchange

Business Report(From January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012)
1. Matters regarding current state of the corporate group(1)

Overview of Business and Results

In the fiscal year under review, ended December 31, 2012, the outlook for the Japanese
economy remained unclear. Despite some signs of an upturn in the economy on the back of
rebuilding demand and other factors, there was considerable uncertainty in the overseas
economy and the impact of prolonged deflation in Japan remained a concern.
In the beverage sector, the market was buoyant overall due to demand generated byaggressive product launches, as well as by a high level of stockpiling demand. However,consumers remained steadfastly focused on the low-end market and price competition
intensified, resulting in a difficult operating environment.
In sales, against this backdrop, Minami Kyushu Coca-Cola Bottling Co., Ltd. and its affiliatedcompanies (the Group) stepped up efforts to promote and expand its eight core brands:
Coca-Cola, Coca-Cola Zero, Fanta, Georgia, Aquarius, Sokenbicha, Ayataka and I LOHAS. At
the same time, the Group actively worked to secure sales space at retailers using sales
campaigns and displays themed around the London Olympics. In the vending machine market,
the Group actively launched vending machines with improved environmental performance,
including machines partly powered by solar energy to address energy conservation needs. Thiswas part of wider efforts to stand out in the market and increase the number of vending machinesites.
In manufacturing, the Group installed a third production line at its Ebino plant to further
increase the ratio of in-house production. The new line became operational in April 2012. Also,in an effort to reduce material procurement costs, the Group worked closely with Coca-Cola(Japan) Co., Ltd. and Coca-Cola Business Services Co., Ltd. to create more lightweight
beverage containers.
In distribution, the Group introduced large delivery vehicles with high load efficiencies andensured delivery vehicles were fully loaded at the beginning of their routes in order to boost
load factor. The Group also worked to reduce transportation costs by cutting the distance of
product procurement routes.
In business management, the Group continued to work toward the final-year goals of its
two-year medium-term management plan. Specifically, it actively implemented initiatives toexpand sales and improve costs, in line with the plan’s four fundamental strategies: strengthen
competitiveness through ideas, suggestions and concrete actions in the marketplace, actively
invest to boost cost performance, enhance the quality of employees and the companies, andimprove the overall capabilities of the Group. In addition, in November 2012, the Group began
discussions and examinations with Coca-Cola West Co., Ltd., with which it has alreadyconcluded a capital and business alliance, about the possibility of becoming a wholly owned
subsidiary of Coca-Cola West. This prospective move is aimed at further boosting the corporate
value of the Group by maximizing synergies and building a competitive advantage in themarket.

- 27 -

Also, in December 2012, the Group sold its shares of Hakushu Health Inryo Co., Ltd., whichprimarily supplies water products to the Kanto area, to Coca-Cola East Japan Products Co., Ltd.
This step was taken in order to concentrate the Group’s management resources on its corebusiness—the manufacture and sale of beverages in the South Kyushu area.
As explained above, the Group implemented a range of initiatives across all areas of its
business during the year under review. Despite these efforts, sales declined year on year as
consumers continued to focus on the low-end market. The Group also booked extraordinary
gains and losses related to the sale of shares in affiliates and the vanishing of plan assets.
As a result, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2012, the Group reported sales of 77,670
million yen (down 3.3% year on year), operating income of 2,611 million yen (down 18.4%),
and recurring profit of 2,581 million yen (down 13.4%). However, net income rose 26.4% year
on year to 2,229 million yen.

(5)Issues to be addressed

Looking ahead, we see prospects for a recovery in the Japanese economy, supported by an
upturn in overseas economies and the impact of various government policies. However, theoutlook remains unclear due to an increase of discouraging factors such as the risk of an
economic downturn overseas, fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, the impact of deflation,
and a weak jobs market. The operating environment in the soft drinks sector is likely to remaindifficult due to intensifying price competition, against the backdrop of deflation, and surging
prices for raw materials.
Under these conditions, the Group will aim to become a corporate group capable ofgenerating sustained growth even in a challenging economic environment. With this goal inmind, the whole Group will work as one to achieve its management targets.
We look forward to the continued support of shareholders in these endeavors.

Notes on financial instruments
1. Matters regarding status of financial instruments
The Group manages its funds by investing in highly secure financial assets.
Trade notes and accounts receivable, which are operating receivables, are exposed to customer
credit risk. The Group works to reduce such risk by having a framework in place that enables
periodic monitoring of the credit status of key business partners in accordance with guidelines
for the management of trade receivables.
With respect to marketable securities and investment securities, credit risk from bonds is
minimal because the Group primarily invests in the bonds of financial institutions, etc. withhigh credit ratings and holds such bonds to maturity. Regarding equities, the Group primarily
holds the shares of companies with which it has a business relationship, and these are exposed
to market price fluctuation risk and issuer (counterparty company) credit risk associated withholding equities. However, the Group periodically monitor fair values and financial situations,etc. of issuers and continually reviewing its shareholding positions.
Trade notes and accounts payable, which are operating payables, have payment due dates within
one year.
In derivative transactions, compound financial instruments are used as bonds held to maturity
for the purpose of managing surplus funds, and the Group does not undertake any other kinds ofderivative transactions.
With such bonds held to maturity, the underlying financial asset is not affected by risk fromembedded derivatives.

(Notes)1. Matters regarding measurement method for fair value of financial instruments and matters regarding
marketable securities(1) Cash and deposits, (2) Trade notes and accounts receivable
Since these items are settled within a short period of time, their fair values are close to theirbook values. Consequently, their fair value is derived from book value.
(3) Marketable securities and investment securities
For stocks, fair value is derived from the price on a securities exchange, and for bonds fairvalue is derived from the price on a securities exchange or a price provided by a financial
institution with which the Company does business.
(4) Trade notes and accounts payable
Since these items are settled within a short period of time, their fair values are close to theirbook values. Consequently, their fair value is derived from book value.
(5) Lease obligations
Fair value of lease obligations is measured based on the present value of future cash flows ofprincipal and interest, discounted at an interest rate that would be charged for a similar leasetransaction newly entered into.
2. Fair values for unlisted stocks (consolidated balance sheet carrying amount 293 million yen) andsilent partnership investments (consolidated balance sheet carrying amount 49 million yen) are
deemed extremely difficult to determine because such investments do not have market prices and it is
not possible to estimate their future cash flows, etc. As a consequence, they are not included in (3)Marketable securities and investment securities.

Regarding the acquisition of own shares by Minami Kyushu CCBC, the Company
judged that the above-stated acquisition of own shares and terms and conditions
therefor will cause no particular issue at the Company, after referring the results ofanalysis by Mitsubishi UFJ Morgan Stanley Securities, the third-party valuation

into consideration the sound financial base and sufficient liquidity on hand of Minami
Kyushu CCBC. As a result, the Company agreed to the above acquisition.
In this Agreement, the Company and Minami Kyushu CCBC agreed with thecondition that the Share Exchange shall be materialized only in the case where
Minami Kyushu CCBC will fully carry out the above-stated acquisition of own shares(including the case where a portion of the shares will not be acquired due to thedisregarding of the number of shares pursuant to Article 159, paragraph 2 of theCompanies Act) from the perspective of the Company that the above-statedacquisition and cancellation of own shares of Minami Kyushu CCBC would reduce

shareholders of the Company. Although the Company currently holds 637,231 sharesof Minami Kyushu CCBC (shareholding ratio 25.00%), it will not subscribe for
