increased recordkeeping and traceability requirements. The FSMA also requires that imported foods and beverages adhere to the same quality standards as domestic foods and beverages and provides the FDA with mandatory recall authority over food and
beverage products that are mislabeled or misbranded. In addition, the FDA requires that certain nutrient and product information appear on product labels and that the labels and labeling be truthful and not misleading. Similarly, the FTC requires
that marketing and advertising claims be truthful, not misleading, not deceptive to customers, and substantiated by adequate scientific data. We are also restricted from making certain types of claims about our products, including nutrient content
claims, health claims, and claims regarding the effects of our products on any structure or function of the body, whether express or implied, unless we satisfy certain regulatory requirements. We are subject to periodic, unannounced inspections by
the FDA. Upon inspection, we must comply with all aspects of the quality standards and current good manufacturing practices for bottled water along with all other applicable requirements.

Several states also have laws and regulations impacting food and beverage products. These include, among other things, restrictions and
limitations on certain ingredients or compounds in the products or their packaging, additional safety or warning standards, added labeling requirements, and recycling related requirements such as marking and reporting. We must also comply with local
and state regulations related to water use, withdrawals and transportation. For example, the California law known as “Proposition 65” requires that a specific warning appear on any product sold in California containing a substance listed
by that state as having been found to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. This law, and others like it, exposes all food and beverage producers to the possibility of having to provide warnings on their products. The detection of even a trace
amount of a listed substance can subject an affected product to the requirement of a warning label, although products containing listed substances that occur naturally or that are contributed to such products solely by a municipal water supply are
generally exempt from the warning requirement. From time to time over the past several years, certain of our customers have received notices alleging that the labeling requirements of the relevant state regulation would apply to products
manufactured by us and sold by them. There can be no assurance that we will not be adversely affected by actions against our customers or us relating to Proposition 65 or similar “failure to warn” laws.

From time to time, various state departments and authorities inspect our facilities and
sources. Our product labels may be subject to state regulation
