      notice to the Manufacturer, of establishing, at its sole discretion, the
      Beverage Bases prices, of appointing one or more Authorized Suppliers for
      each one of the Beverage Bases, as well as the shipping and payment conditions,
      as well as, if allowed by the applicable legislation, the payment currency

Manufacturer,  maximum prices for which each one of the  Beverages in Authorized
Recipients can be sold by the  Manufacturer to retailers,  and the maximum retail prices
for  each one of the  Beverages.  The parties  recognize  that the  Manufacturer  can
sell the  Beverages to retailers and  authorize  the  Beverage  retail  sales for prices
lower than the  maximum  prices  established  or  modified by the  Partnership,  as
allowed by this paragraph. The Manufacturer cannot, however, increase the maximum prices
established  by the  Partnership  for which the  Beverages  in  Authorized  Recipients
can be sold to  retailers,  nor  authorize  increases in the maximum  retail prices
established  for the Beverages,  without  previous  written  approval by the  Partnership.






	 	(c) 	 The

Manufacturer’s  authorization  in relation to such Beverage or Beverages will
lawfully  terminate 3 (three)  calendar  months  after  the  Partnership’s
reception  of  notice  from  the  Manufacturer.  In  case of  cancellation  of the
Manufacturer’s  authorizations as herein  contemplated,  the Partnership will no
longer have any obligations with the  Manufacturer in relation to the Beverage or
Beverages whose  authorizations were cancelled,  and the Partnership will  be entitled to
grant authorizations to third parties in connection with the preparation,  packaging,
distribution and  sale of that given Beverage or of those given Beverages in the
Territory.






	 	(e)	 If
the Manufacturer does not wish to pay the modified price in  respect to the Beverage
Bases for one or more Beverages  identified by the “Coca-Cola” trademark or any
derivations  thereof, as better described in Exhibit I, the Manufacturer  must notify the
Partnership in writing within the term of 30  (thirty) days counted as from reception of

      cancelled 3 (three) calendar months after reception of the Manufacturer’s
      notice.






	 	(f) 	 Whenever

Beverage Bases, as per  the terms of paragraphs (d) and (e) of this item, it is
understood that the Manufacturer accepted the modified price.

to  employ the reasonable diligent efforts to recover, when empty,  all returnable
Authorized Recipients and boxes and, when  recovering them, reimburse or credit the
applicable parties  the values of the deposits corresponding to such returnable
Authorized Recipients and boxes, if returned without damages  and in good conditions.






	 	(h) 	 Notwithstanding
the provisions of letter (a) above, the  parties agree that during the present agreement
validity the  concentrate price will be increased always in the same  proportion and at
the same time when the Manufacturer  increases the sales price of the Beverage that it
manufactures. The parties also agree to keep, during the  present agreement validity, the
calculation methodology of the  Concentrate price currently in use and fully disclosed to
all  Coca-Cola Manufacturers.





	VII - AGREEMENT DURATION AND EXPIRATION






	27. 	(a) 	 This Agreement will lawfully expire on April
      15th, 2004, except if it be terminated before that, as herein contemplated.
      However, if the Manufacturer fully fulfilled the present Agreement clauses,
      especially, but without prejudice of the others, those concerning the market
      development and the full meeting of the Beverage demand in its territory,
      as well as the strict compliance with hygiene and quality control norms
      established by the Partnership, making it clear that the Manufacturer is
      willing and has the means to continue acting like that, then the Manufacturer
      may request, and the Partnership will accept, that it be renewed for a period
      equal to that of the present Agreement. The intention of renewing the Agreement
      and the confirmation to keep its satisfactory fulfillment must be manifested
      in writing by the Manufacturer to the Partnership, within a minimum term
      of 6 (six) months and a maximum term of 12 (twelve) months before the Agreement
      expiration, it being perfectly understood that the Partnership will assess
      the Manufacturer’s performance along the agreement period, according
      to the objective criteria pursuant to which the Manufacturers’ agreement
      obligations fulfillment are usually assessed. Based on such assessment,
      which must be guided by objective criteria, the Partnership will exercise
      the exclusive right of deciding whether the Manufacturer’s agreement
      obligations were satisfactorily fulfilled, and thus will agree or not with
      the requested renewal. It is herein duly understood that, in case of agreement
      renewal, the Partnership and the Manufacturer can, by mutual agreement,
      introduce modifications in the new Manufacture Agreement to be entered into.





	 	(b) 	 In
the cases in which the Manufacturing  Agreement is not renewed by the Partnership’s
decision, the Partnership will  purchase from the

	 		 Manufacture, and the Manufacturer will sell
      to the Partnership, all its production equipment, such as, but limited to,
      the bottle washer and filler and the can filler, paying the market price
      for equipment with similar use time, use conditions and maintenance. The
      price parameters will be obtained by surveying the transactions occurred
      in the market within the latest six months involving similar equipment.
      Such transactions will be expressed in National Treasury Bonuses or any
      other economic indicator in force upon the production equipment purchase
      by the Partnership, equipment which must be free and unencumbered by any
      burdens. In case of doubt, written indications from manufacturers of such
      equipment will be accepted as parameters of price and continued use conditions.






	28. 	(a)	 This Agreement can be terminated by the Partnership
      or by the Manufacturer, immediately and without obligations of indemnifying
      for losses and damages, upon written notice sent to the other party by the
      party entitled to termination:

ingredients or  materials necessary  to manufacture Beverage Bases, Syrups or Beverages;





	 		(2)	 If
any of this  Agreement  parties  loses the  necessary  requirements  pursuant to the laws
in force in the Country where the  Territory  is  located  and as a result  thereof,  or
if, as a result of the  application  of any other  laws  affecting the Agreement,  some
of this  instrument  stipulations  cannot be lawfully  fulfilled,  or if, as a
consequence,  the Syrups can no longer be prepared or the Beverages  cannot be prepared
or sold  according to  the  instructions  issued by the  Partnership  as per the terms of
item 20 above,  or if any of the  Beverage  Bases can no  longer be  manufactured  or
sold in  accordance  with the  Partnership’s  formulas  or with the  standards
prescribed by the Partnership.






	 	(b) 	 This
Agreement can be immediately terminated by the  Partnership, without obligations to
indemnify for losses and  damages:





	 		1) 	 If
the Manufacturer becomes insolvent or if its bankruptcy is  requested or confessed and
the confession application is not  withdrawn within 120 (one hundred and twenty) days, if
the  Manufacturer decides for its dissolution, is a judicial  dissolution or intervention
order is issued against the  Manufacturer, if a liquidator is appointed to administrate
the  Manufacturer’s businesses, or if the Manufacturer enters into  a judicial or
extra-judicial general composition process with  its creditors, such as a reorganization
process, or if it  establishes with them any similar understandings or makes any
assignments in benefit of creditors;





	 		2) 	 In
case of dissolution, nationalization or expropriation of  the Manufacturer, or in case of
seizure of the Manufacturer’s  assets employed in production or distribution.





 
	 	
-13-	 


 


  
  

 
	29. 	a)	 This agreement can also be terminated, by the
      Partnership or by the Manufacturer, if the other party fails to fulfill
      one or more of the terms, commitments and conditions of this Agreement,
      and does not cure this infringement within 60 (sixty) days after such party
      receives written notice of such infringement.





	 	b) 	 Besides
the other reparation methods to which the Partnership  is entitled by force of this
Agreement, if at any time the  Manufacturer fails to follow the instructions or to keep
the  standards prescribed by the Partnership or required by the  laws applicable in the
Territory concerning the preparation of  Syrups or Beverages, the Partnership will be
entitled to  prohibit the Syrups or Beverages production until the  infringement
correction, at the Partnership’s discretion, and  the Partnership can require the
removal from the market of any  Beverages not manufactured according to or not in
conformity  with these instructions, standards or legal requirements, and  the

indicate that  it has any connections with the Company, the Partnership, the  Beverages
or the Trademarks;





	 	(c)	 The
Manufacturer  will  immediately  deliver  to  the  Partnership  or to a  third  party,
according  to  the  Partnership’s  instructions,  all Beverage Bases,  Beverages in
Authorized  Recipients,  usable  Authorized  Recipients  bearing the  Trademarks or any
of them, boxes,  locks,  labels,  packaging and advertising  material for the Beverages
still under  the  Manufacturer’s  possession  or under its  control;  and the
Partnership,  upon  delivery  of these  assets,  in  fulfillment of the referred
instructions,  must pay to the  Manufacturer  an amount equal to the  reasonable  market
value of these  supplies or materials,  it being  understood  that the  Partnership  will
only accept and pay for the  supplies and  materials in  first-class  conditions  and
perfectly  usable;  it being  further  understood  that all  Authorized  Recipients,
locks,  labels,  packaging and  advertising  materials  unsuitable  for use according to

provisions dealing with the  Manufacturer’s obligations related to the Trademarks
and with  the other obligations established in items 14, 15, 16, 19(a)  and 30, all of
