 and beverages, we must comply with various federal, state, provincial, local, and foreign laws relating
to the extraction, production, packaging, quality, labeling, and distribution of our products. We are also subject to various federal, state, provincial, local, and foreign environmental and health and safety laws and regulations, including those
governing our workplaces and locations where our products are distributed. Our bottled water must meet FDA or parallel foreign requirements of safety for human consumption, labeling, processing, and distribution under sanitary conditions and
production in accordance with FDA’s current “good manufacturing practices.” In addition, the public drinking water we source must meet the standards of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (the “EPA”) and/or those
of similar federal, state, provincial, local, or foreign governmental bodies. Further, any claims we make in marketing our products are subject to the advertising and promotion requirements and restrictions. We also must meet state regulations in a
variety of areas, including standards for approved water sources and the information that must be provided and the basis on which any therapeutic claims for water may be made. In addition, certain environmental laws impose liability on current or
previous owners or operators of real property for the cost of removal or remediation of hazardous substances. These laws often impose liability even if the owner or operator did not know of, or was not responsible for, the release of such hazardous
substances and also impose liability on persons who arrange for transportation of hazardous substances to disposal or treatment facilities.

managing an organization with operations in multiple countries, complying with differing laws and regulations (including the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the U.K. Bribery Act of 2010 and local laws prohibiting payments to government officials
and other corrupt practices, tax laws, regulations and rates), enforcing agreements, and collecting receivables through foreign legal systems. Although we have implemented policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance with these laws, there
can be no assurance that our associates, contractors, and agents will not take actions in violation of our policies, particularly as we expand our operations through organic growth and acquisitions. Any such violations could subject us to civil or
criminal penalties, including material fines or prohibitions on our ability to offer our products in one or more countries, and could also materially damage our reputation, brand, international expansion efforts, business, and operating results.
Additional risks include the potential
