ITEM 1.  BUSINESS

INTRODUCTION

      The Pepsi Bottling Group, Inc. ("PBG") was incorporated in Delaware in
January, 1999, as a wholly owned subsidiary of PepsiCo, Inc. ("PepsiCo") to
effect the separation of most of PepsiCo's company-owned bottling businesses.
PBG became a publicly traded company on March 31, 1999. As of February 21, 2003,
PepsiCo's ownership represented 38.0% of the outstanding common stock and 100%
of the outstanding Class B common stock, together representing 43.1% of the
voting power of all classes of PBG's voting stock. PepsiCo also owned
approximately 6.8% of the equity interest of Bottling Group, LLC, PBG's
principal operating subsidiary, as of February 21, 2003. We refer to our
publicly traded common stock as "Common Stock" and, together with our Class B
common stock, as our "Capital Stock." When used in this Report, "PBG," "we,"
"us" and "our" each refers to The Pepsi Bottling Group, Inc. and, where
appropriate, to Bottling Group, LLC, which we also refer to as "Bottling LLC."

      We maintain a website on the World Wide Web at http://www.pbg.com. We make
available, free of charge, through the Investor Relations section of our
website, our annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current
reports on Form 8-K, and any amendments to those reports filed or furnished
pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as
amended, as soon as reasonably practicable after such reports are electronically
filed with, or furnished to, the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC").

RECENT ACQUISITIONS

      On March 13, 2002, we acquired the operations and exclusive right to
manufacture, sell and distribute Pepsi-Cola's international beverages in Turkey
for a purchase price of approximately $75 million in cash and assumed debt.

      On November 5, 2002, we acquired approximately 99.8% of all of the
outstanding capital stock of Pepsi-Gemex, S.A. de C.V. ("Gemex"), which is the
largest bottler in Mexico and the largest bottler outside the United States of
Pepsi-Cola soft drink products based on sales volume, through simultaneous
tender offers in Mexico and the United States. Following the offers, we funded a
trust for the acquisition of the balance of the outstanding capital stock and
caused Gemex to carry out a reverse stock split that eliminated for cash the
outstanding capital stock held by any remaining security holders other than us.
Our total cost for the purchase of Gemex was a net cash payment of $871 million
and assumed debt of approximately $305 million.

PRINCIPAL PRODUCTS

      PBG is the world's largest manufacturer, seller and distributor of
PEPSI-COLA beverages. The beverages sold by us include PEPSI-COLA, MOUNTAIN DEW,
DIET PEPSI, AQUAFINA, LIPTON BRISK, MOUNTAIN DEW CODE RED, SIERRA MIST, SOBE,
DOLE, MUG, DIET MOUNTAIN DEW, PEPSI TWIST, STARBUCKS FRAPPUCCINO and, outside
the U.S., PEPSI-COLA, MIRINDA, 7 UP, KAS, ELECTROPURA, AQUA MINERALE, MANZANITA
SOL, SQUIRT, GARCI CRESPO, FIESTA, PEPSI LIGHT, IVI, YEDIGUN, and FRUKO.

      We have the exclusive right to manufacture, sell and distribute Pepsi-Cola
beverages in all or a portion of 41 states and the District of Columbia in the
U.S., nine Canadian provinces, Spain, Greece, Russia, Turkey and, after our
recent acquisition of Gemex, all or a portion of 21 states in Mexico. In some of
our U.S. territories, we also have the right to manufacture, sell and distribute
soft drink products

                                       3
<PAGE>
of other companies, including Dr PEPPER, All SPORT and, through December 2002, 7
UP. In 2002, approximately 82% of our net revenues were generated in the United
States, and the remaining 18% was generated in Canada, Spain, Greece, Russia,
Turkey and Mexico. We have an extensive direct store distribution system in the
United States, Mexico and Canada. In Russia, Spain, Greece and Turkey, we use a
combination of direct store distribution and distribution through wholesalers,
depending on local marketplace considerations.

RAW MATERIALS AND OTHER SUPPLIES

      We purchase the concentrates to manufacture Pepsi-Cola beverages and other
soft drink products from PepsiCo and other soft-drink companies.

      In addition to concentrates, we purchase sweeteners, glass and plastic
bottles, cans, closures, syrup containers, other packaging materials and carbon
dioxide. We generally purchase our raw materials, other than concentrates, from
multiple suppliers. PepsiCo acts as our agent for the purchase of such raw
materials in the United States and Canada and, with respect to some of our raw
materials, in certain of our international markets. The Pepsi beverage
agreements provide that, with respect to the soft drink products of PepsiCo, all
authorized containers, closures, cases, cartons and other packages and labels
may be purchased only from manufacturers approved by PepsiCo. There are no
materials or supplies used by PBG that are currently in short supply. The supply
or cost of specific materials could be adversely affected by various factors,
including price changes, strikes, weather conditions and governmental controls.

PATENTS, TRADEMARKS, LICENSES AND FRANCHISES

      Our portfolio of beverage products includes some of the best recognized
trademarks in the world and includes PEPSI-COLA, MOUNTAIN DEW, DIET PEPSI,
AQUAFINA, LIPTON BRISK, MOUNTAIN DEW CODE RED, SIERRA MIST, SOBE, DOLE, MUG,
DIET MOUNTAIN DEW, PEPSI TWIST, STARBUCKS FRAPPUCCINO and, outside the U.S.,
PEPSI-COLA, MIRINDA, 7 UP, KAS, ELECTROPURA, AQUA MINERALE, MANZANITA SOL,
SQUIRT, GARCI CRESPO, FIESTA, PEPSI LIGHT, IVI, YEDIGUN, and FRUKO. The majority
of our volume is derived from brands licensed from PEPSICO or PEPSICO joint
ventures. In some of our U.S. territories, we also have the right to
manufacture, sell and distribute soft drink products of other companies,
including DR PEPPER , ALL SPORT and, through December 2002, 7 UP.

      We conduct our business primarily under agreements with PepsiCo. These
agreements give us the exclusive right to market, distribute, and produce
beverage products of PepsiCo in authorized containers in specified territories.

      Set forth below is a description of the Pepsi beverage agreements and
other bottling agreements to which we are a party.

      Terms of the Master Bottling Agreement. The Master Bottling Agreement
under which we manufacture, package, sell and distribute the cola beverages
bearing the Pepsi-Cola and Pepsi trademarks in the U.S. was entered into in
March of 1999. The Master Bottling Agreement gives us the exclusive and
perpetual right to distribute cola beverages for sale in specified territories
in authorized containers of the nature currently used by us. The Master Bottling
Agreement provides that we will purchase our entire requirements of concentrates
for the cola beverages from PepsiCo at prices, and on terms and conditions,
determined from time to time by PepsiCo. PepsiCo may determine from time to time
what types of containers to authorize for use by us. PepsiCo has no rights under
the Master Bottling Agreement with respect to the prices at which we sell our
products.

                                       4
<PAGE>
      Under the Master Bottling Agreement we are obligated to:

      (1)   maintain such plant and equipment, staff, and distribution and
            vending facilities that are capable of manufacturing, packaging and
            distributing the cola beverages in sufficient quantities to fully
            meet the demand for these beverages in our territories;

      (2)   undertake adequate quality control measures prescribed by PepsiCo;

      (3)   push vigorously the sale of the cola beverages in our territories;

      (4)   increase and fully meet the demand for the cola beverages in our
            territories;

      (5)   use all approved means and spend such funds on advertising and other
            forms of marketing beverages as may be reasonably required to meet
            the objective; and

      (6)   maintain such financial capacity as may be reasonably necessary to
            assure performance under the Master Bottling Agreement by us.

      The Master Bottling Agreement requires us to meet annually with PepsiCo to
discuss plans for the ensuing year and the following two years. At such
meetings, we are obligated to present plans that set out in reasonable detail
our marketing plan, our management plan and advertising plan with respect to the
cola beverages for the year. We must also present a financial plan showing that
we have the financial capacity to perform our duties and obligations under the
Master Bottling Agreement for that year, as well as sales, marketing,
advertising and capital expenditure plans for the two years following such year.
PepsiCo has the right to approve such plans, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld. In 2002, PepsiCo approved our annual plan.

      If we carry out our annual plan in all material respects, we will be
deemed to have satisfied our obligations to push vigorously the sale of the cola
beverages, increase and fully meet the demand for the cola beverages in our
territories and maintain the financial capacity required under the Master
Bottling Agreement. Failure to present a plan or carry out approved plans in all
material respects would constitute an event of default that, if not cured within
120 days of notice of the failure, would give PepsiCo the right to terminate the
Master Bottling Agreement.

      If we present a plan that PepsiCo does not approve, such failure shall
constitute a primary consideration for determining whether we have satisfied our
obligations to maintain our financial capacity, push vigorously the sale of the
cola beverages and increase and fully meet the demand for the cola beverages in
our territories.

      If we fail to carry out our annual plan in all material respects in any
segment of our territory, whether defined geographically or by type of market or
outlet, and if such failure is not cured within six months of notice of the
failure, PepsiCo may reduce the territory covered by the Master Bottling
Agreement by eliminating the territory, market or outlet with respect to which
such failure has occurred.

      PepsiCo has no obligation to participate with us in advertising and
marketing spending, but it may contribute to such expenditures and undertake
independent advertising and marketing activities, as well as cooperative
advertising and sales promotion programs that would require our cooperation and
support. Although PepsiCo has advised us that it intends to continue to provide
cooperative advertising funds, it is not obligated to do so under the Master
Bottling Agreement.

      The Master Bottling Agreement provides that PepsiCo may in its sole
discretion reformulate any of the cola beverages or discontinue them, with some
limitations, so long as all cola

                                       5
<PAGE>
beverages are not discontinued. PepsiCo may also introduce new beverages under
the Pepsi-Cola trademarks or any modification thereof. When that occurs, we are
obligated to manufacture, package, distribute and sell such new beverages with
the same obligations as then exist with respect to other cola beverages. We are
prohibited from producing or handling cola products, other than those of
PepsiCo, or products or packages that imitate, infringe or cause confusion with
the products, containers or trademarks of PepsiCo. The Master Bottling Agreement
also imposes requirements with respect to the use of PepsiCo's trademarks,
authorized containers, packaging and labeling.

      If we acquire control, directly or indirectly, of any bottler of cola
beverages, we must cause the acquired bottler to amend its bottling appointments
for the cola beverages to conform to the terms of the Master Bottling Agreement.

      Under the Master Bottling Agreement, PepsiCo has agreed not to withhold
approval for any acquisition of rights to manufacture and sell Pepsi trademarked
cola beverages within a specific area -- currently representing approximately
12.6% of PepsiCo's U.S. bottling system in terms of volume -- if we have
successfully negotiated the acquisition and, in PepsiCo's reasonable judgment,
satisfactorily performed our obligations under the Master Bottling Agreement. We
have agreed not to acquire or attempt to acquire any rights to manufacture and
sell Pepsi trademarked cola beverages outside of that specific area without
PepsiCo's prior written approval.

      The Master Bottling Agreement is perpetual, but may be terminated by
PepsiCo in the event of our default. Events of default include:

      (1)   our insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, receivership or the like;

      (2)   any disposition of any voting securities of one of our bottling
            subsidiaries or substantially all of our bottling assets without the
            consent of PepsiCo;

      (3)   our entry into any business other than the business of
            manufacturing, selling or distributing non-alcoholic beverages or
            any business which is directly related and incidental to such
            beverage business; and

      (4)   any material breach under the contract that remains uncured for 120
            days after notice by PepsiCo.

      An event of default will also occur if any person or affiliated group
acquires any contract, option, conversion privilege, or other right to acquire,
directly or indirectly, beneficial ownership of more than 15% of any class or
series of our voting securities without the consent of PepsiCo. As of February
21, 2003, to our knowledge, no shareholder of PBG, other than PepsiCo, held more
than 6.0% of our Common Stock.

      We are prohibited from assigning, transferring or pledging the Master
Bottling Agreement, or any interest therein, whether voluntarily, or by
operation of law, including by merger or liquidation, without the prior consent
of PepsiCo.

      The Master Bottling Agreement was entered into by us in the context of our
separation from PepsiCo and, therefore, its provisions were not the result of
arm's-length negotiations. Consequently, the agreement contains provisions that
are less favorable to us than the exclusive bottling appointments for cola
beverages currently in effect for independent bottlers in the United States.

                                       6
<PAGE>
      Terms of the Non-Cola Bottling Agreements. The beverage products covered
by the non-cola bottling agreements are beverages licensed to us by PepsiCo,
consisting of MOUNTAIN DEW, DIET MOUNTAIN DEW, MOUNTAIN DEW CODE RED, SLICE,
SIERRA MIST, FRUITWORKS, MUG root beer and cream soda. The non-cola bottling
agreements contain provisions that are similar to those contained in the Master
Bottling Agreement with respect to pricing, territorial restrictions, authorized
containers, planning, quality control, transfer restrictions, term, and related
matters. Our non-cola bottling agreements will terminate if PepsiCo terminates
our Master Bottling Agreement. The exclusivity provisions contained in the
non-cola bottling agreements would prevent us from manufacturing, selling or
distributing beverage products which imitate, infringe upon, or cause confusion
with, the beverage products covered by the non-cola bottling agreements. PepsiCo
may also elect to discontinue the manufacture, sale or distribution of a
non-cola beverage and terminate the applicable non-cola bottling agreement upon
six months notice to us.

      Terms of Certain Distribution Agreements. We also have agreements with
PepsiCo granting us exclusive rights to distribute AQUAFINA, AMP and DOLE in all
of our territories and SoBe in certain specified territories. We have the right
to manufacture Aquafina in certain locations depending on the availability of
appropriate equipment. The distribution agreements contain provisions generally
similar to those in the Master Bottling Agreement as to use of trademarks, trade
names, approved containers and labels and causes for termination. We recently
obtained the rights to sell and distribute GATORADE in Spain, Greece and Russia
and in certain limited channels of distribution in the U.S. Some of these
beverage agreements have limited terms and, in most instances, prohibit us from
dealing in similar beverage products.

      Terms of the Master Syrup Agreement. The Master Syrup Agreement grants us
the exclusive right to manufacture, sell and distribute fountain syrup to local
customers in our territories. The Master Syrup Agreement also grants us the
right to act as a manufacturing and delivery agent for national accounts within
our territories that specifically request direct delivery without using a
middleman. In addition, PepsiCo may appoint us to manufacture and deliver
fountain syrup to national accounts that elect delivery through independent
distributors. Under the Master Syrup Agreement, we have the exclusive right to
service fountain equipment for all of the national account customers within our
territories. The Master Syrup Agreement provides that the determination of
whether an account is local or national is at the sole discretion of PepsiCo.

      The Master Syrup Agreement contains provisions that are similar to those
contained in the Master Bottling Agreement with respect to pricing, territorial
restrictions with respect to local customers and national customers electing
direct-to-store delivery only, planning, quality control, transfer restrictions
and related matters. The Master Syrup Agreement has an initial term of five
years and is automatically renewable for additional five-year periods unless
PepsiCo terminates it for cause. PepsiCo has the right to terminate the Master
Syrup Agreement without cause at the conclusion of the initial five-year period
or at any time during a renewal term upon twenty-four months notice. In the
event PepsiCo terminates the Master Syrup Agreement without cause, PepsiCo is
required to pay us the fair market value of our rights thereunder.

      Our Master Syrup Agreement will terminate if PepsiCo terminates our Master
Bottling Agreement.

      Terms of Other U.S. Bottling Agreements. The bottling agreements between
us and other licensors of beverage products, including Cadbury Schweppes plc for
DR PEPPER, SCHWEPPES, CANADA DRY and HAWAIIAN PUNCH, the Pepsi/Lipton Tea
Partnership for LIPTON BRISK and LIPTON'S ICED TEA, the North American Coffee
Partnership for STARBUCKS FRAPPUCCINO, and The Monarch Beverage Company, Inc.
for ALL SPORT, contain provisions generally similar to those in the Master
Bottling Agreement as to use of trademarks, trade names, approved containers

                                       7
<PAGE>
and labels, sales of imitations, and causes for termination. Some of these
beverage agreements have limited terms and, in most instances, prohibit us from
dealing in similar beverage products.

      Terms of the Country Specific Bottling Agreements. The country specific
bottling agreements contain provisions similar to those contained in the Master
Bottling Agreement and the non-cola bottling agreements and, in Canada, the
Master Syrup Agreement with respect to authorized containers, planning, quality
control, transfer restrictions, term, causes for termination and related
matters. These bottling agreements differ from the Master Bottling Agreement
because, except for Canada, they include both fountain syrup and non-fountain
beverages. Certain of these bottling agreements contain provisions that have
been modified to reflect the laws and regulations of the applicable country. For
example, the bottling agreements in Spain do not contain a restriction on the
sale and shipment of Pepsi-Cola beverages into our territory by others in
response to unsolicited orders.

SEASONALITY

      Our peak season is the warm summer months beginning with Memorial Day and
ending with Labor Day. Approximately 73% of our operating income is typically
earned during the second and third quarters. Approximately 75% of cash flow from
operations is typically generated in the third and fourth quarters.

COMPETITION

      The carbonated soft drink market and the non-carbonated beverage market
are highly competitive. Our competitors in these markets include bottlers and
distributors of nationally advertised and marketed products, bottlers and
distributors of regionally advertised and marketed products, as well as bottlers
of private label soft drinks sold in chain stores. Among our major competitors
are bottlers that distribute products from The Coca-Cola Company including
Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc., Coca-Cola Hellenic Bottling Company S.A. and
Coca-Cola FEMSA S.A. de C.V. The market shares for our U.S. territories range
from approximately 11.0% to approximately 53.0% and for our non-U.S. territories
from approximately 13.0% to approximately 40.0%. Actions by our major
competitors and others in the beverage industry, as well as the general economic
environment could have an impact on our future market share.

      We compete primarily on the basis of advertising and marketing programs to
create brand awareness, price and promotions, retail space management, customer
service, consumer points of access, new products, packaging innovations and
distribution methods. We believe that brand recognition, availability and
consumer and customer goodwill are primary factors affecting our competitive
position.

GOVERNMENTAL REGULATION APPLICABLE TO PBG

      Our operations and properties are subject to regulation by various
federal, state and local governmental entities and agencies in the United States
as well as foreign government entities and agencies in Canada, Spain, Greece,
Russia, Turkey and Mexico. As a producer of food products, we are subject to
production, packaging, quality, labeling and distribution standards in each of
the countries where we have operations, including, in the United States, those
of the federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act. The operations of our production and
distribution facilities are subject to laws and regulations relating to the
protection of the environment in the countries in which we do business. In the
United States, we are subject to the laws and regulations of the Department of
Transportation, and various federal, state and local occupational and
environmental laws. These laws and regulations include the Occupational Safety
and Health Act, the Clean Air Act, the

                                       8
<PAGE>
Clean Water Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act and laws relating to
the operation, maintenance of and financial responsibility for fuel storage
tanks.

      We believe that our current legal, operational and environmental
compliance programs are adequate and that we are in substantial compliance with
applicable laws and regulations of the countries in which we do business. We do
not anticipate making any material expenditures in connection with environmental
remediation and compliance. However, compliance with, or any violation of,
future laws or regulations could require material expenditures by us or
otherwise have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition
and results of operations.

      Bottle and Can Legislation

      In all but a few of our United States and Canadian markets, we offer our
bottle and can beverage products in non-refillable containers. Legislation has
been enacted in certain states and Canadian provinces where we operate that
generally prohibits the sale of certain beverages unless a deposit or levy is
charged for the container. These include Connecticut, Delaware, Maine,
Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, Oregon, California, British Columbia,
Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, Prince Edward
Island and Quebec.

      Massachusetts and Michigan have statutes that require us to pay all or a
portion of unclaimed container deposits to the state and California imposes a
levy on beverage containers to fund a waste recovery system.

      In addition to the Canadian deposit legislation described above, Ontario,
Canada, currently has a regulation requiring that 30% of all soft drinks sold in
Ontario be bottled in refillable containers. This regulation is currently being
reviewed by the Ontario Ministry of the Environment.

      The European Commission issued a packaging and packing waste directive
that was incorporated into the national legislation of most member states. This
has resulted in targets being set for the recovery and recycling of household,
commercial and industrial packaging waste and imposes substantial
responsibilities upon bottlers and retailers for implementation.

      We are not aware of similar material legislation being proposed or enacted
in any other areas served by us. We are unable to predict, however, whether such
legislation will be enacted or what impact its enactment would have on our
business, financial condition or results of operations.

      Soft Drink Excise Tax Legislation

      Specific soft drink excise taxes have been in place in certain states for
several years. The states in which we operate that currently impose such a tax
are West Virginia, Arkansas and Tennessee and, with respect to fountain syrup
only, Washington. In Mexico, there is an excise tax on mineral water and,
effective January 1, 2003, there is an excise tax applicable to any products
produced without sugar, including diet soft drinks.

      Value-added taxes on soft drinks vary in our territories located in
Canada, Spain, Greece, Russia, Turkey and Mexico, but are consistent with the
value-added tax rate for other consumer products. In addition, there is a
special consumption tax applicable to cola products in Turkey.

      We are not aware of any material soft drink taxes that have been enacted
in any other market served by us. We are unable to predict, however, whether
such legislation will be enacted or what impact its enactment would have on our
business, financial condition or results of operations.

                                       9

      Trade Regulation

      As a manufacturer, seller and distributor of bottled and canned soft drink
products of PepsiCo and other soft drink manufacturers in exclusive territories
in the United States and internationally, we are subject to antitrust and
competition laws. Under the Soft Drink Interbrand Competition Act, soft drink
bottlers operating in the United States, such as us, may have an exclusive right
to manufacture, distribute and sell a soft drink product in a geographic
territory if the soft drink product is in substantial and effective competition
with other products of the same class in the same market or markets. We believe
that there is such substantial and effective competition in each of the
exclusive geographic territories in which we operate.

      California Carcinogen and Reproductive Toxin Legislation

      A California law requires that any person who exposes another to a
carcinogen or a reproductive toxin must provide a warning to that effect.
Because the law does not define quantitative thresholds below which a warning is
not required, virtually all manufacturers of food products are confronted with
the possibility of having to provide warnings due to the presence of trace
amounts of defined substances. Regulations implementing the law exempt
manufacturers from providing the required warning if it can be demonstrated that
the defined substances occur naturally in the product or are present in
municipal water used to manufacture the product. We have assessed the impact of
the law and its implementing regulations on our beverage products and have
concluded that none of our products currently require a warning under the law.
We cannot predict whether or to what extent food industry efforts to minimize
the law's impact on food products will succeed. We also cannot predict what
impact, either in terms of direct costs or diminished sales, imposition of the
law may have.

      Mexican Water Regulation

      In Mexico, we purchase water directly from municipal water companies and
pump water from our own wells pursuant to concessions obtained from the Mexican
government on a plant-by-plant basis. The concessions are generally for 5, 10 or
15 year terms. Our concessions may be terminated if, among other things, (a) we
use more water than permitted, (b) we fail to pay required concession-related
fees, or (c) we fail to complete agreed-upon construction or improvements. Our
concessions satisfy our current water requirements and we believe that we are in
compliance in all material respects with the terms of our existing concessions.

EMPLOYEES

      As of December 28, 2002, we employed approximately 65,000 full-time
workers, of whom approximately 29,500 were employed in the United States and
approximately 25,900 were employed in Mexico. Approximately 8,700 of our
full-time workers in the United States are union members and approximately
18,800 of our workers outside the United States are union members. We consider
relations with our employees to be good and have not experienced significant
interruptions of operations due to labor disagreements.

FINANCIAL INFORMATION ON INDUSTRY SEGMENTS AND GEOGRAPHIC AREAS

      For financial information on industry segments and operations in
geographic areas, see Note 13 to PBG's Consolidated Financial Statements, found
on page 52 of our Annual Report to Shareholders for the year ended December
28, 2002, which page is incorporated herein by reference and is included as
Exhibit 13 hereto.

ITEM 2.PROPERTIES

      As of December 28, 2002, we operated 95 soft drink production facilities
worldwide, of which 89 were owned and six were leased. In addition, one facility
used for the manufacture of soft drink packaging materials was operated by a PBG
joint venture in Turkey. Of our 532 distribution facilities, 360 are owned and
172 are leased. We believe that our bottling, canning and syrup filling lines
and our distribution facilities are sufficient to meet present needs. We also
lease headquarters office space in Somers, New York.

      We also own or lease and operate approximately 39,900 vehicles, including
delivery trucks, delivery and transport tractors and trailers and other trucks
and vans used in the sale and distribution of our soft drink products. We also
own more than 1.5 million soft drink dispensing and vending machines.

      With a few exceptions, leases of plants in the United States and Canada
are on a long-term basis, expiring at various times, with options to renew for
additional periods. Most international plants are leased for varying and usually
shorter periods, with or without renewal options. We believe that our properties
are in good operating condition and are adequate to serve our current
operational needs.

ITEM 3.LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

      From time to time we are a party to various litigation matters incidental
to the conduct of our business. There is no pending or, to our best knowledge,
threatened legal proceeding to which we are a party or that, in the opinion of
management, is likely to have a material adverse effect on our future financial
results.

ITEM 4.SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SHAREHOLDERS

None.

(1)   The securities reflected in this category are authorized for issuance
      under the following PBG plans: (i) 1999 Long-Term Incentive Plan; (ii)
      2000 Long-Term Incentive Plan; (iii) 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan and
      (iv) Directors' Stock Plan.

(2)   Excludes 383,382 shares of PBG Common Stock available for future issuance
      as of December 28, 2002 in connection with the PBG phantom stock account
      under the terms of our Executive Income Deferral Plan (the "Plan"). The
      Plan permits the deferral of certain compensation into the PBG phantom
      stock account and such deferrals may be paid out, at the discretion of our
      Compensation and Management Development Committee (the "Committee") of our
      Board of Directors, in cash or shares of our Common Stock. As of the date
      hereof, the Committee has not issued shares of our Common Stock to pay out
      deferrals from the Plan's PBG phantom stock account. The number of shares
      reflected above in this footnote was calculated by reference to the
      average of the high and low trading price of PBG Common Stock on the New
      York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") on December 27, 2002 (the last trading
      day before the end of our fiscal year).

(3)   The securities reflected in this category are authorized for issuance
      under the PBG Stock Incentive Plan (the "SIP") which was approved by the
      Board of Directors on March 30, 1999. The SIP is the only one of our plans
      that has not been approved by our security holders. The SIP constitutes a
      "broadly-based" plan within the meaning of Paragraph 312.03 of the
      Shareholder Approval Policy of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and
      therefore no security holder approval was required as a prerequisite to
      our listing on the NYSE or for any other purpose.

The summary of the material provisions of the SIP, set forth below, is provided
pursuant to SEC requirements and is qualified in its entirety by reference to
the SIP which is filed as Exhibit 10.11 to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the year ended December 25, 1999.

Purpose. We established the SIP to enable us to attract, retain and motivate
employees and align their interests with those of our shareholders.

Eligibility. Each of our employees as well as employees of our subsidiaries may
be granted any of the awards under the SIP as determined by the Committee;
provided however, that no individual employee may be granted awards in the
aggregate under the SIP which, if exercised, would result in that employee
receiving more than 10% of the maximum number of shares available for issuance
under the SIP.

Awards. The SIP provides for awards to be made in the form of stock options,
restricted stock and

                                       16
<PAGE>
other share awards.

(A) Stock Options. The Committee may grant options under the SIP to purchase PBG
Common Stock that give the employee the right to purchase a share of PBG Common
Stock at a fixed price for a specified period of time. The purchase price of a
share of PBG Common Stock under each option shall not be less than the fair
market value of a share of PBG Common Stock on the date the option is granted
except for those stock options granted to eligible employees as of the date we
became a separate publicly held company in March 1999. The options are
exercisable in accordance with the terms established by the Committee. In
general, the Committee intends that options will vest in annual increments of
25%, 25% and 50% and become fully exercisable within three years after their
grant date. However, without regard to the vesting period assigned, the vesting
and exercisability of options shall be accelerated in connection with certain
transfers and events (disability, death and retirement), as explained below. The
full purchase price of each share of PBG Common Stock purchased upon the
exercise of any option shall be paid at the time of the exercise. Except as
otherwise determined by the Committee, the purchase price shall be payable in
cash or in PBG Common Stock (valued at fair market value as of the day of
exercise), or in any combination thereof.

(B) Restricted Stock and Other Share Awards. The Committee may grant restricted
stock awards (a grant of PBG Common Stock with such shares subject to a risk of
forfeiture or other restrictions as determined by the Committee) or share awards
(a grant of PBG Common Stock). Any such awards shall be subject to such
conditions, restrictions and contingencies as the Committee determines. However,
without regard to the vesting period assigned, the vesting of restricted and
other stock awards shall be accelerated in connection with certain transfers and
events (death, disability, retirement), as explained below.

Administration. The SIP is administered by the Committee. The Committee has the
authority and discretion to select the individuals who shall receive awards, to
determine the time or times of receipt, to determine the types of awards and the
number of shares covered by the awards, to establish the terms, conditions,
restrictions, and other provisions of such awards, and subject to certain
limits, to cancel or suspend awards. The Committee has the authority and
discretion to interpret the SIP, to establish, amend, and rescind any rules and
regulations relating to the SIP, and to make all other determinations that may
be necessary or advisable for the administration of the SIP. Any interpretation
of the SIP by the Committee and any decision made by the Committee under the SIP
is final and binding on all persons. The Committee may allocate all or any
portion of its responsibilities and powers to any one or more of its members and
may delegate all or any part of its responsibilities and powers to any person or
persons selected by it.

In the event of a corporate transaction involving PBG (including, without
limitation, any stock dividend, stock split, extraordinary cash dividend,
recapitalization, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off,
combination or exchange of shares), the Committee may adjust awards to preserve
the benefits or potential benefits of the awards. Action by the Committee may
include: (i) adjustment of the number and kind of shares which may be delivered
under the SIP; (ii) adjustment of the number and kind of shares subject to
outstanding awards; (iii) adjustment of the exercise price of outstanding
options; and (iv) any other adjustments that the Committee determines to be
equitable.

Except as otherwise provided by the Committee, awards under the SIP are not
transferable except as designated by the participant by will or by the laws of
descent and distribution.

Limit on Shares. The maximum number of shares of stock that may be delivered to
participants under the SIP shall not exceed an aggregate number of shares of
Common Stock to be determined from time to time by the Committee, subject to
certain adjustments described above. The current maximum number of shares that
may be delivered under the SIP is 7.4 million, representing the number of shares
that the

                                       17
<PAGE>
Committee has authorized for registration on the SIP's Form S-8 Registration
Statement filed May 26, 1999. PBG management will not request that the
Committee increase this maximum number of shares.

Certain Transfers. In connection with certain PBG-approved transfers to certain
allied organizations, as described in the SIP, the transferred participant's
outstanding options will become fully exercisable and restricted stock awards
will become fully vested. Employment by the allied organization will be treated
as employment by PBG in determining the participant's right to exercise and in
applying the SIP's misconduct provisions.

Death, Disability, Termination of Employment, Misconduct. In the event of the
participant's death, all restrictions upon Restricted Stock lapse and stock
options then held by the participant become immediately exercisable as of the
date of death and may be exercised by the participant's executor or legal
representative in accordance with their terms. In the event that the participant
becomes "Totally Disabled" within the meaning of the SIP, all restrictions upon
Restricted Stock lapse and stock options then held by the participant continue
to be exercisable in accordance with their terms. In the event of the
participant's "Retirement" within the meaning of the SIP, Restricted Stock held
by the participant which remains subject to restrictions as of such date, shall
be cancelled and forfeited unless otherwise determined by the Committee; and all
stock options then held by the participant become immediately exercisable and
may be exercised in accordance with their terms. In the event of the
participant's termination of employment for any reason other than the above, or
for "Misconduct" within the meaning of the SIP, Restricted Stock held by the
participant which remains subject to restrictions as of such date shall be
cancelled and forfeited unless otherwise determined by the Committee; and all
stock options then held by the participant which are exercisable on such date,
shall continue to be exercisable until the earlier of 90 days from the date of
such termination or in accordance with their terms. Unless otherwise determined
by the Committee, all stock options which are not exercisable as of the date of
termination automatically terminate and lapse. In the event the participant is
determined to have engaged in Misconduct, within the meaning of the SIP, a
participant forfeits all rights to unexercised stock options and all outstanding
options automatically terminate and lapse.

Amendment and Termination. The Committee may, at any time, amend or terminate
the SIP, provided that no amendment or termination may, in the absence of
consent to the change by the affected participant, adversely affect the rights
of any participant or beneficiary under any award granted under the SIP prior to
the date such amendment or termination is adopted by the Committee.

Withholding of Taxes. We may withhold amounts to satisfy withholding tax
requirements from amounts due to participants. Subject to guidelines established
by the Committee, participants may have PBG Common Stock withheld from awards to
satisfy tax withholding requirements.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

      Information relating to certain transactions between PBG, PepsiCo and
their affiliates and certain other persons is set forth under the caption
"Certain Relationships and Related Transactions" in our Proxy Statement for our
2003 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and is incorporated herein by reference.

ITEM 14. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

EVALUATION OF OUR DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND INTERNAL CONTROLS.

      Within 90 days prior to the date of this report, PBG carried out an
evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our management,
including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer of PBG, of
the effectiveness and design and operation of our disclosure controls and
procedures pursuant to the Exchange Act Rule 13a-14. Based upon that evaluation,
the Chief


                                       18
<PAGE>
Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded, subject to the
limitations set forth below, that our disclosure controls and procedures are
effective in timely alerting them to material information relating to PBG and
its consolidated subsidiaries required to be included in PBG's periodic filings
with the SEC. In addition, subject to the limitations set forth below, there
were no significant changes in our internal controls or in other factors that
could significantly affect these internal controls subsequent to the date of our
most recent evaluation.

LIMITATIONS ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF CONTROLS.

      Our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief
Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls or our internal
controls will prevent all error and all fraud. A control system, no matter how
well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute,
assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Further, the design
of a control system must reflect the fact that there are resource constraints,
and the benefits of controls must be considered relative to their costs. Because
of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls
can provide absolute assurance that all control issues within our company have
been detected. The design of any system of controls also is based in part upon
certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no
assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all
potential future conditions. Because of the inherent limitations in a
cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and
may not be detected.
