(g)If the rating system of either Moodys or Standard & Poors shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt
obligations, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) shall negotiate in good faith to amend the references to specific ratings in this Agreement to reflect such changed rating system or the non-availability of ratings
from such rating agency (provided that any such amendment to such specific ratings shall not be effective without the approval of the Majority Lenders).

SECTION 2.09. Voluntary Conversion and Continuation of Advances.

specified above, specify (x) the date of such Conversion, (y) the Advances to be Converted, and (z) if such Conversion is into Eurodollar Rate Advances, the duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of
Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.

part, together with accrued interest to the date of such
prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $5,000,000 or integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (y) in the case of any such

Advances except as provided in this Section 2.10 (or as required pursuant to the other provisions of this Agreement).

SECTION 2.11. Increased Costs.

(a)If, due to
either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements included in the Eurodollar Rate Reserve Percentage) in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation or (ii) the
compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining
Eurodollar Rate Advances, then the Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to
compensate such Lender for such increased cost. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, prepared in good faith and submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all
purposes, absent manifest error.

(b)If any Lender determines that compliance with
any law or regulation or any guideline or request from any central bank or other governmental authority (whether or not having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or
any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of such Lenders commitment to lend hereunder and other commitments of this type, then, upon demand by such Lender (with a
copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall immediately pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender
or such corporation in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that such Lender reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of such Lenders commitment to lend hereunder. A certificate as to such
amounts, prepared in good faith and submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.12. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or
regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Eurodollar Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make or Continue Eurodollar Rate Advances or to
fund or otherwise maintain Eurodollar Rate Advances hereunder, (i) the obligation of such Lender to make or Continue, or to Convert Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower
and the

- 22 -

Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer
exist and (ii) each Eurodollar Rate Advance of such Lender shall convert into a Base Rate Advance at the end of the then current Interest Period for such Eurodollar Rate Advance.

SECTION 2.13. Payments and Computations.

(a)The
Borrower shall make each payment hereunder without set-off or counterclaim not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the day when due in Dollars to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 8.02 in same day funds. The
Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest, Facility Fee or Utilization Fee ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.02(c), 2.11, 2.14 or 8.04(c))
to the Lenders for the account of their respective Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be
applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Acceptance and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.06(d), from and after the Closing Date
specified in such Assignment and Acceptance, the Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Acceptance shall make all
appropriate adjustments in such payments for periods prior to such Closing Date directly between themselves.

(b)All computations of interest based on Citibanks base rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, for the actual
number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest is payable. All computations of interest based on the Eurodollar Rate or the Federal Funds Rate and of the Facility Fee and the
Utilization Fee shall be made by the Administrative Agent, and all computations of interest pursuant to Section 2.07 shall be made by the relevant Lender, on the basis of a year of 360 days, for the actual number of days (including the first
day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or fee is payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest
error.

(c)Whenever any payment hereunder would be due on a day other than a
Business Day, such due date shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and any such extension of such due date shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest, Facility Fee and Utilization Fee, as the case may
be; provided however that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurodollar Rate Advances to fall due in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.

(d)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the
date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the
Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each

Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due
such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with
interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate.

SECTION 2.14. Taxes.

(a)Any and all payments by
the Borrower hereunder shall be made, in accordance with Section 2.13, free and clear of and without deduction for any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto,
excluding, in the case of each Lender and the Administrative Agent, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction under the laws of which such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is organized
or any political subdivision thereof and, in the case of each Lender, taxes imposed on its income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction of such Lenders Applicable Lending Office or any political subdivision thereof (all such
non-excluded taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as Taxes). If the Borrower shall be required by law to deduct any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder
to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, (i) the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.14) such Lender or
the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the Borrower shall make such deductions and (iii) the Borrower shall pay the full amount deducted to
the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b)In addition, the Borrower agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies which arise from any payment made hereunder or from the execution, delivery or
registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement (hereinafter referred to as Other Taxes).

(c)The Borrower will indemnify each Lender and the Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes or Other Taxes (including, without limitation, any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed
by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 2.14) paid by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or
not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within 30 days from the date such Lender or the Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to
the amount of such Taxes and Other Taxes, submitted to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be conclusive and binding (as between the Borrower, the Lenders and the Administrative Agent) for all purposes, absent manifest
error.

(d)Within 30 days after the date of any payment of Taxes, the Borrower will
furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 8.02, the original or a







---

##### Table of Contents

- 24 -

certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other
proof of payment of such Taxes reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Lender(s). If no Taxes are payable in respect of any payment hereunder, upon the request of the Administrative Agent the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent, at
such address, a statement to such effect with respect to each jurisdiction designated by the Administrative Agent.

(e)Each Lender organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States, on or prior to the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement (in the case of each Bank)
and on the date of the Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to which it becomes a Lender (in the case of each other Lender), and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by the Borrower (but only so long as such Lender remains lawfully
able to do so), shall provide the Borrower with Internal Revenue Service form W-8BEN or W-8ECI, as appropriate, or any successor form prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service, certifying that such Lender is entitled to benefits under an income tax
treaty to which the United States is a party which reduces the rate of withholding tax on payments of interest or certifying that the income receivable pursuant to this Agreement is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business in
the United States. If the form provided by a Lender at the time such Lender first becomes a party to this Agreement indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be considered excluded
from Taxes as defined in Section 2.14(a).

(f)For any period
with respect to which a Lender has failed to provide the Borrower with the appropriate form described in Section 2.14(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in law occurring subsequent to the date on which a form originally was required
to be provided, or if such form otherwise is not required under the first sentence of subsection (e) above), such Lender shall not be entitled to indemnification under Section 2.14(a) or (c) with respect to Taxes imposed by the United States;
provided however that should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, the Borrower shall take such steps as the Lender may reasonably request to assist the Lender to recover such Taxes.

(g)Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.14
shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Applicable Lending Office(s) if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of,
any such additional amounts that may thereafter accrue and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

SECTION 2.15. Set-Off; Sharing of Payments, Etc.

(a)Without limiting any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of the Lenders hereunder, if the Borrower shall fail to pay when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any amount payable by it hereunder or under
any Note each Lender may, without prior notice to the Borrower (which notice is expressly waived by it to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law), set off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or
special, time or demand, provisional or final, in any currency, matured or unmatured) and other obligations and liabilities at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or account of the Borrower.
Each

Lender shall promptly provide notice of such set-off to the
Borrower, provided that failure by such Lender to provide such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

(b)If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances made by it (other than
pursuant to Section 2.02(c), 2.11, 2.14 or 8.04(c)) in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations in the Advances
made by them or make such other adjustments as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them; provided however that if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from
such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lenders ratable share
(according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lenders required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the
total amount so recovered. The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including the right of
set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.16. Right to Replace a Lender. If the Borrower is required to make any additional payment pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.14 to any Lender or if any Lenders obligation to make or Continue, or to Convert
Advances into, Eurodollar Rate Advances shall be suspended pursuant to Section 2.12 (in each case, such Lender being an Affected Person), the Borrower may elect, if such amounts continue to be charged or such suspension is still
effective, to replace such Affected Person as a party to this Agreement; provided that, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement; and provided further that, concurrently with such
replacement, (i) another financial institution which is an Eligible Assignee and is reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Advances of the Affected Person
pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations (including all outstanding Advances) of the Affected Person to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the
requirements of Section 8.06 applicable to assignments, and (ii) the Borrower shall pay to such Affected Person in same day funds on the day of such replacement all accrued interest, accrued fees and other amounts then owing to such Affected
Person by the Borrower hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due such Affected Person under Section 2.11 and 2.14.

SECTION 2.17. Evidence of Indebtedness. (a)   Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from
each Advance made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(b)The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the date, amount, Type, interest rate and duration of Interest Period (if applicable) of each

Advance made hereunder, (ii) the amount of any principal or
interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lenders share
thereof.

(c)The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to clause
(a) or (b) of this Section 2.17 shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall
not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Advances in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d)Any Lender may request that its Advances be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower will promptly prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note (a
Note) payable to the order of such Lender, in a form approved by the Administrative Agent, in a principal amount equal to the amount of such Lenders Commitment and otherwise duly completed.

SECTION 2.18. Extension of Commitments. (a)   The Borrower may, not earlier than 90 days and not later than 60 days before the Commitment Termination Date, by notice to the Administrative Agent
request that the Commitment Termination Date then in effect (the Existing Commitment Termination Date) be extended to the date 364 days after the Existing Commitment Termination Date. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify
the Lenders of such request. The Borrower may make this extension request only once.

(b)Each Lender, in its sole discretion, shall, by notice to the Administrative Agent given not more than 60 nor less than 50 days before the Existing Commitment Termination Date, advise the Administrative Agent whether or not such Lender
agrees to such extension. A Lender that determines not to so extend its Commitment shall so notify the Administrative Agent promptly after making such determination and is herein called a Non-Extending Lender. If a Lender does not give
timely notice to the Administrative Agent of whether or not such Lender agrees to such extension, it shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender.

(c)The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of each Lenders determination on or before the date 45 days before the Existing Commitment
Termination Date.

(d)If and only if (i) the total of the Commitments of Lenders
that have agreed to extend their Commitments as herein provided is more than 75% of the aggregate amount of the Commitments in effect immediately prior to the Existing Commitment Termination Date, and (ii) immediately prior to the Existing
Commitment Termination Date no Default has occurred and is continuing and the representations and warranties of the Borrower set forth in Section 4.01 shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Existing Commitment
Termination Date as though made on and as of such date, then effective on the Existing Commitment Termination Date the Commitment Termination Date shall be extended to the date 364 days after the Existing Commitment Termination Date (or, if
such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) which date shall thereafter be the Commitment

ARTICLE 7THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

SECTION 7.01. Authorization and Action. Each Lender hereby appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action as administrative agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are
delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement (including, without limitation, enforcement or collection of
the Advances), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the
instructions of the Majority Lenders, and such instructions shall be binding upon all Lenders; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action which exposes the Administrative Agent to personal liability or
which is contrary to this Agreement or applicable law. The Administrative Agent agrees to give to each Lender prompt notice of each notice given to it by the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 7.02. Administrative Agents Reliance, Etc. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its directors, officers, agents or employees shall be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted to be taken by
it or them under or in connection with this Agreement, except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent: (i) may consult with legal counsel
(including counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable to the Lenders for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such
counsel, accountants or experts; (ii) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations (whether written or oral) made in or in connection with this
Agreement; (iii) shall not have any duty to ascertain or to inquire as to the performance or observance of any of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement on the part of the Borrower or to inspect the property (including the books and
records) of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries; (iv) shall not be responsible to any Lender for the due execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other instrument or document
furnished pursuant hereto; and (v) shall incur no liability to the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which may be by telecopier, telegram, cable or telex)
believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties.

SECTION 7.03. Citibank and Affiliates. With respect to its Commitment and the Advances made by it, Citibank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though
it were not the Administrative Agent; and the term Lender or Lenders shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated, include Citibank in its individual capacity. Citibank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money
to, act as trustee under indentures of, and generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries and any Person who may do business with or own securities of the Borrower or any such Subsidiary, all as if Citibank
were not the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 7.04. Lender Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on the financial statements referred to in Section
4.01 and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the
Administrative Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement.

SECTION 7.05. Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower), ratably according to the respective amounts of their Commitments, from and against any
and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any way
relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements found in a final-non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the Administrative Agents gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting
the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the preparation,
execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the extent that the
Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower.

SECTION 7.06. Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower and may be removed at any time with or without cause by the
Majority Lenders. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Majority Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent that, unless a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and then be continuing, is reasonably
acceptable to the Borrower. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agents giving of notice of
resignation or the Majority Lenders removal of the retiring Administrative Agent, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a commercial bank organized under
the laws of the United States of America or of any State thereof and having total assets of at least $1,000,000,000. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor
Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations
under this Agreement. After any retiring Administrative Agents resignation or removal hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Article 7 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it
was Administrative Agent under this Agreement.

deemed to have waived, by reason of making any Advance, any Default or Event of Default that may arise by reason of such representation or warranty proving to have been false or misleading.

SECTION 8.11. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND THE LENDERS HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY

[Form of Opinion of Special
Counsel to the Borrower]

December __, 2002

To the Banks party to the
CreditAgreement referred to below

Citibank, N.A., as AdministrativeAgentTwo Penns Way, Suite
200New Castle, Delaware 19720

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have
acted as counsel to Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated, a Delaware corporation (the Borrower), in connection with the Credit Agreement dated as of December __, 2002 (the Credit Agreement) among the Borrower, the Lenders
named therein and Citibank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, providing for loans to be made by said Lenders to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed $125,000,000. Terms defined in the Credit Agreement
are used in this opinion letter as defined therein. This opinion letter is being delivered pursuant to Section 3.01(d) of the Credit Agreement.

As such
counsel, we have examined originals or copies of the Credit Agreement. We have also examined such corporate records of the Borrower and such other documents as we have deemed necessary or appropriate for the purpose of giving the opinions herein
expressed.

In giving the opinions expressed herein and making our investigations in connection herewith, we have assumed (a) the due authorization, execution
and delivery by the parties thereto other than the Borrower of the documents examined by us, (b) the genuineness of all signatures of individuals, (c) the personal legal capacity of all individual signatories, (d) the authenticity of all documents
presented to us as originals, and (e) the conformity to the originals of all documents presented to us as copies. We have also assumed that the terms of the Credit Agreement have not been modified, supplemented or qualified by any other agreements
or understandings (written or oral) of the parties thereto, or by any course of dealing or trade custom or usage, in any manner affecting the opinions expressed herein.

The opinions set forth herein are limited to matters governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina and the federal laws of the United States, and no opinion is expressed herein as to the laws of any other
jurisdiction. We note that the Credit Agreement provides that it is to be governed by the laws of New York. Our opinion herein as to the legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of the Credit Agreement is intended to address the
legality, validity, binding effect and enforceability of the Credit Agreement under North Carolina and federal law were it,

- 2 -



notwithstanding such provision, governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, and is not intended to address matters of New York law.

We express
no opinion herein concerning the possible application to the Credit Agreement, the transactions contemplated thereby, or the obligations of the parties thereunder of Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code, 11 U.S.C. §548, Sections 39-15 through
39-22 of the North Carolina General Statutes, or other similar laws relating to fraudulent transfers or fraudulent conveyances.

Opinions or statements herein given to the best of our knowledge and the factual matters on which we have relied in giving other opinions herein (except for our opinions as to corporate matters that we have given in reliance upon
certificates of officers of the Borrower and public officials) are based upon (a) information coming to our attention in the course of our representation of the Borrower in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement, or
otherwise actually known to the lawyers in our firm who have given substantive attention to such transactions, (b) the Borrowers representations and warranties contained in the Credit Agreement, and (c) inquiries of representatives of the
Borrower whom we believe to be reasonably well-informed as to the factual matters in question, but without any other investigations made for purposes of giving such opinions or statements unless otherwise stated herein. However, nothing has come to
our attention in the course of our representation of the Borrower in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Agreement that would cause us to believe that our reliance thereon for purposes of such opinions is
unwarranted.

Our opinion herein as to the due organization of the Borrower is based solely upon our examination of the Borrowers articles of
incorporation, as certified by the Delaware Secretary of State, and a certificate of an officer of the Borrower to the effect that the Borrower has duly issued shares of its capital stock, adopted bylaws, established a Board of Directors, and
appointed officers.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the further limitations and qualifications hereinafter expressed, it is our opinion
that:

1.The Borrower is a corporation duly organized, validly
existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware.

2.The Borrower has all requisite corporate power to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations and to incur liabilities under, the Credit Agreement.

3.The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of, and the
incurrence by the Borrower of liabilities under, the Credit Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Borrower.

4.The Credit Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Borrower.

5.The Credit Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower
in accordance with its terms.



Opinion of Special Counsel to the
Borrower

##### Table of Contents

- 3 -



6.No authorization, approval or consent of, and no filing or registration with, any
governmental or regulatory authority or agency of the United States of America is required on the part of the Borrower for the execution, delivery or performance by the Borrower of, or for the incurrence by the Borrower of any liabilities under, the
Credit Agreement.

7.The execution, delivery and performance by
the Borrower of, and the consummation by the Borrower of the transactions contemplated by, the Credit Agreement do not and will not violate (a) any provision of the charter or by-laws of the Borrower, (b)  any applicable law, rule or
regulation of the United States of America (including, without limitation, Regulations T, U and X issued by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System, as amended), (c)  any order, writ, injunction or decree of any court or
governmental authority or agency or any arbitral award applicable to the Borrower and its Subsidiaries of which we have knowledge (after due inquiry), or result in a breach of, constitute a default under, require any consent under, or result in the
acceleration or required prepayment of any indebtedness pursuant to the terms of, any agreement or instrument of which we have knowledge (after due inquiry) to which the Borrower and its Subsidiaries is a party or by which any of them is bound or to
which any of them is subject, or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien upon any property of the Borrower pursuant to the terms of any such agreement or instrument.

8.Other than as disclosed in filings of the Borrower with the Securities and Exchange Commission or as set forth in a
schedule to the Credit Agreement, we have no knowledge (after due inquiry) of any legal or arbitral proceedings, or any proceedings by or before any governmental or regulatory authority or agency, now pending or threatened against or affecting the
Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Properties that, if adversely determined, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.The Borrower is not an investment company, or a Person controlled by an investment
company, as such terms are defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

The opinions expressed above are subject to the following
qualifications, exceptions and limitations in addition to those set forth above:

(a)Enforceability of the Credit Agreement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar state or federal laws from time to time in effect which
affect the enforcement of creditors rights generally.

(b)Enforceability of the Credit Agreement is subject to general equitable principles and to general standards of commercial reasonableness.

(c)Certain waivers and remedial provisions contained in the Credit Agreement may not be enforceable; however, we believe that the Credit Agreement, taken as a
whole, contain adequate and customary provisions for the practical realization of the benefits and security purported to be provided thereby.



Opinion of Special Counsel to the Borrower

(d)Provisions of the Credit
Agreement purporting to require that waivers be in writing may be ineffective to preclude oral waivers or waivers by conduct or course of dealing.

(e)Provisions of the Credit Agreement purporting to reconstitute the terms thereof as necessary to avoid a claim or defense of usury may
be invalid and unenforceable.

(f)Provisions of the
Credit Agreement purporting to require a party thereto to pay or reimburse attorneys fees incurred by another party, or to indemnify another party therefor, may be limited by applicable statutes and decisions relating to the collection and
award of attorneys fees.

(g)Provisions of the Credit
Agreement purporting to release, exculpate or indemnify a party as to such partys liability for its own acts or omissions, to the extent such acts or omissions involve such partys gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct or
unlawful conduct, may not be enforceable.

(h)No opinion is
expressed as to the validity or enforceability of provisions of the Credit Agreement relating to indemnity and contribution for liabilities under federal or state securities laws.

(i)We express no opinion as to the enforceability of any choice of law provision in the Credit Agreement.

This opinion letter is delivered solely for your benefit in connection with the closing under the Credit Agreement and may not be relied upon by any other person or for
any other purpose without our prior written consent. Our opinions expressed herein are as of the date hereof, and we undertake no obligation to advise you of any changes in applicable law or any other matters that may come to our attention after the
date hereof that may affect our opinions expressed herein.

To the Banks
party to theCredit Agreement referred tobelowCitibank, N.A., as AdministrativeAgent399 Park
AvenueNew York, New York 10043

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have
acted as special New York counsel to Citibank, N.A. (the Administrative Agent), as Administrative Agent, in connection with the Credit Agreement dated as of December __, 2002 (the Credit Agreement) among Coca-Cola
Bottling Co. Consolidated (the Borrower), the lenders named therein and the Administrative Agent, providing for loans to be made by said lenders to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount not exceeding $125,000,000. Terms defined
in the Credit Agreement are used herein as defined therein. This opinion is being delivered pursuant to Section 3.01(e) of the Credit Agreement.

In
rendering the opinions expressed below, we have examined the Credit Agreement. In our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with authentic
original documents of all documents submitted to us as copies.

In rendering the opinions expressed below, we have assumed, with respect to the Credit
Agreement, that:

(i)the Credit Agreement has been duly
authorized by, have been duly executed and delivered by, and (except to the extent set forth in the opinions below as to the Borrower) constitutes legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of, all of the parties thereto;

(ii)all signatories to the Credit Agreement have been duly authorized;
and

(iii)all of the parties to the Credit Agreement are duly
organized and validly existing and have the power and authority (corporate or other) to execute, deliver and perform the Credit Agreement.

subject to the foregoing and subject also to the comments and qualifications set forth below, and having considered such questions of law as we have deemed necessary as a basis for the opinions expressed below, we are of the opinion that the

Agreement constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws
relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally and except as the enforceability of the Credit Agreement is subject to the application of general principles of equity (regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law),
including, without limitation, (a) the possible unavailability of specific performance, injunctive relief or any other equitable remedy and (b) concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing.

The foregoing opinions are subject to the following comments and qualifications:

(a)The enforceability of Section 8.04(b) of the Credit Agreement may be limited by laws limiting the enforceability of provisions
exculpating or exempting a party from, or requiring indemnification of a party for, its own action or inaction, to the extent such action or inaction involves gross negligence, recklessness or willful or unlawful conduct.

(b)The enforceability of provisions in the Credit Agreement to the effect that terms

COMMUNICATIONS AGREEMENT

Reference is made to the
[$_____________] Credit Agreement dated as of December __, 2002 (as amended, supplemented and otherwise modified from time to time, the Credit Agreement), among Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated (the Borrower), the
lenders named therein (the Banks), and Citibank, N.A., as administrative agent (the Administrative Agent). Capitalized terms used and not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Credit
Agreement.

The Borrower hereby agrees that it will provide to the Administrative Agent all information, documents and other materials that it is obligated to
furnish to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement, including, without limitation, all notices, requests, financial statements, financial and other reports, certificates and other information materials, but excluding any such
communication that (i) relates to a request for a Borrowing, (ii) provides notice of any Default or Event of Default or (iii) is required to be delivered to satisfy any condition precedent to the payment under the Credit Agreement thereunder (all
such non-excluded communications being referred to herein collectively as Communications), by transmitting the Communications in an electronic/soft medium in a format acceptable to the Administrative Agent to oploanswebadmin@ssmb.com. In
addition, the Borrower agrees to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent in the manner specified in the Credit Agreement, but only to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent.

The Borrower further agrees that the Administrative Agent may make the Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on e-Disclosure (the
Platform), the Administrative Agents internet delivery system that is part of SSB Direct, Global Fixed Incomes primary web portal.

Although the primary web portal is secured with a dual firewall and a User ID/Password Authorization System and the Platform is secured through a single user per deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Platform only on a
deal-by-deal basis, the Borrower acknowledge that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution.

THE COMMUNICATIONS AND THE PLATFORM ARE PROVIDED AS IS AND AS AVAILABLE. THE CITIGROUP PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY, ADEQUACY OR
COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY

IN NO EVENT SHALL
CITIGROUP INC. OR ANY OF ITS AFFILIATES OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, ADVISORS OR REPRESENTATIVES (COLLECTIVELY, CITIGROUP PARTIES) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE BORROWER, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON
OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF THE BORROWERS OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENTS TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY CITIGROUP PARTY IS FOUND IN A FINAL NON-APPEALABLE JUDGMENT BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH
CITIGROUP PARTYS GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

at its e-mail address set forth above shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to the Administrative Agent for purposes of the Credit Agreement.
