Effective January 1, 2005 








 DS WATERS OF AMERICA, INC. 

DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN 

As Amended and Restated as of January 1, 2005 
  

	A.	NAME AND PURPOSE 

 Effective as of January 1, 2005, DS Waters of America, LP (the
“Company”) established the “DS Waters of America, LP Executive Deferred Compensation Plan” (the “Plan”) This Company subsequently changed its name to DS Waters of America, Inc., and changed the name of the Plan to the
“DS Waters of America, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan.” Effective as of January 1, 2005, the Plan is amended and restated as set forth in this document to comply with the requirements of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A and
for other purposes. 
  

	B.	PARTICIPATION 

 1. Eligibility to Participate. An Employee shall be eligible to
participate in this Plan if the Employee occupies a position with the Employer with a salary grade of 1A, IB, 2A, 2B, 3A, 3B, 4A, 4B, 5A, 5B, 6A, 6B, 7A or 7B, and the Employer designates the Employee as an Eligible Executive. The Employer’s
designation of Eligible Executives shall be done through an annual notice to the Eligible Executive that he or she may participate in this Plan for the next Plan Year. Such notice also shall set forth the Declared Rate for the next Year. The
Employer may revoke an Eligible Executive’s status as such only as of January 1 of any Plan Year. Such revocation shall be made before the January 1 as of which it is effective. 

2. Election to Participate. An Eligible Executive may become a Participant in this Plan by electing to defer the Eligible
Executive’s Base Salary and/or Annual Bonus in accordance with the terms of this Plan. An election to defer shall be irrevocable and shall be made during an election period prior to the beginning of the Plan Year with respect to which the
services for which the compensation is payable are performed (or at such other time as provided in Treasury regulations). 
 A
Participant’s deferral election as to the amount of Base Salary and/or Annual Bonus to be deferred under this Plan shall remain in effect for succeeding Plan Years until it is amended or revoked by the Participant. Any amendment or revocation
must comply with the timing rules above, in that the amendment or revocation can be made only before the beginning of the Plan Year in which the amounts subject to the amended deferral election will be earned. 

An individual who becomes an Eligible Executive on or after the first day of a Plan Year may participate in this Plan only as of the beginning
of the following Plan Year. 
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, any election to defer Base Pay or Annual Bonus that is
Performance-based Compensation shall be made not later than six months before the end of the period in which the services to which it applies are performed. 

The Administrator shall establish rules prescribing the time and manner in which elections shall be submitted. If an Eligible Executive elects
to defer amounts under this Plan, the Eligible Executive shall be deemed to accept all of the terms and conditions of this Plan. 

  
 2 









 Deferrals under this Plan shall be 100% nonforfeitable. 

3. Change in Eligible Executive Status. If, during any Plan Year, an Eligible Executive ceases to be employed in a position subject to
one of the salary grades listed in Section B.1 above, the individual shall continue to be an Eligible Executive for the remainder of the Plan Year, but shall cease being an Eligible Executive for each succeeding Plan Year. 

If an Eligible Executive is a Participant in this Plan, ceases to be an Eligible Executive for any reason, and then again becomes an Eligible
Executive, the Employee shall be subject to the usual rule that deferrals must be made before the beginning of the Plan Year in which they are to be effective. 

4. Relation to Other Plans. An Eligible Executive may participate in this Plan and also may participate in any other benefit plan of an
Employer in effect from time to time for which he or she is eligible, unless such other plan excludes participation on the basis of eligibility for, or participation in, this Plan. No amounts may be deferred under this Plan that have been deferred
under any other plan of an Employer. 
  

	C.	AMOUNT OF PARTICIPANT DEFERRAL 

 1. Minimum Deferral. An Eligible Executive who
elects to make a deferral of Base Salary under this Plan must elect to defer at a rate that, if the Participant continues to earn the same level of Base Salary throughout the Plan Year, will result in a minimum contribution of $5,000 of Base Salary
for such Plan Year. An Eligible Executive who elects to make a deferral of Annual Bonus under this Plan must elect to defer at least $5,000 of any Annual Bonus earned during such Plan Year. 

2. Maximum Deferral. The maximum amount that an Eligible Executive may defer under this Plan for any Plan Year is (i) eighty
percent (80%) of Base Salary for such Plan Year and (ii) one hundred percent (100%) of any Annual Bonus earned during such Plan Year. Deferrals may be further reduced by an Employer to leave sufficient remaining compensation required
for taxes and other authorized deductions, including, but not limited to, those for Employer benefit programs. The Company shall reduce a Participant’s deferral only to the extent that doing so does not constitute an impermissible acceleration
of a payment to a Participant or Beneficiary under Code Section 409A. 
  

	D.	AMOUNT OF EMPLOYER CREDIT 

 Each Eligible Executive shall receive a credit under this
Plan for a Plan Year equal to (i) the Matching Contribution, if any, such Eligible Executive would have received pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Retirement Savings Plan with respect to such Plan Year and (ii) the Profit Sharing Contribution, if any,
such Eligible Executive would have received pursuant to Section 4.3 of the Retirement Savings Plan with respect to such Plan Year, in each case but for such Eligible Executive’s deferrals under this Plan (or, with respect to 2005 only, the
Deferred Compensation Administration Plan or Salary Deferral Plan); provided, however, that an Eligible Executive shall receive a credit under this Section D only if the Eligible Executive is employed by an Employer on the last day of
the Year or terminated employment during the Plan Year (i) on account of death; (ii) on account of Permanent Disability (as defined in the Retirement Savings Plan); (iii) after attaining age 55 and completing at least ten (10) years of Service (as
defined in the Retirement Savings Plan); or (iv) as a result of the permanent closing of the operating unit or plant where the Eligible Executive was employed. 

  
 3 









 Credits under this Section shall be 100% nonforfeitable. 

 

	E.	ACCOUNT AND INTEREST 

 Base Salary and/or Annual Bonus deferred by a Participant pursuant
to Section B.2 shall be credited to the Participant’s Account as of the date such amounts would, but for the operation of this Plan, have been paid to the Participant. Amounts credited to a Participant pursuant to Section D shall be credited to
the Participant’s Account as of the last day of the Plan Year. 
 Interest shall be credited to each Account for each Plan Year at a
rate declared by the Administrator acting in his or her sole discretion (the “Declared Rate”). The balance in a Participant’s Account shall be compounded daily. In the case of installment payments as provided in Section F.2,
interest shall be credited on the undistributed portion of the Account until the Account has been distributed in its entirety. Crediting of interest to an Account for a Year shall occur prior to the crediting of amounts pursuant to Section D. 

 

	F.	PAYMENT 

 1. Length of Deferral. A Participant shall irrevocably elect and file
with the Administrator, at the same time as such Participant makes an election to defer compensation pursuant to Section B.2, the period of deferral with respect to (i) such compensation for the Plan Year to which the deferral applies,
(ii) amounts credited for the Plan Year to the Participant pursuant to Section D, and (iii) interest on amounts described in (i) and (ii). The minimum period of deferral shall be five (5) years after the end of the Plan Year with
respect to which the compensation is deferred; provided, however, that this minimum period of deferral shall not apply to payments made as a result of death, Retirement, other Separation from Service or Unforeseeable Emergency. The
maximum period of deferral shall be the period ending on the January 31 that first follows the end of the Plan Year in which the Participant attains age 72. 

2. Method of Payment. A Participant shall irrevocably elect and file with the Administrator, at the same time as such Participant makes
an election to defer compensation pursuant to Section B.2, a method of payment with respect to such deferred compensation, amounts credited for the Plan Year to the Participant pursuant to Section D and interest thereon. The methods of payment
available on a single lump sum or approximately equal annual installments (not in excess of 10). 
 3. Payment on Separation from
Service. If a Participant incurs a Separation from Service for any reason other than death or Retirement, then, notwithstanding the elections made by the Participant pursuant to Sections F.I and 2, the Participant’s Account shall be paid in
a single lump sum in January of the Plan Year following the Plan Year in which the Separation from Service occurs. 
 4. Payment on
Death. 
 a. Death After Payments Have Begun. If a Participant dies after payments from his or her Account have begun, the
undistributed portion of the Participant’s Account shall be paid to his or her Beneficiary at the same time and in the same manner as it would have been paid had the Participant survived. 

  
 4 









 b. Death Before Payments Have Begun. If a Participant dies before payments from his or her
Account have begun, the Participant’s Account shall be paid to his or her Beneficiary at the time and in the manner elected by the Participant pursuant to Sections F.I and 2, or, if no election has been made, in a single lump sum as soon as
practicable after the Participant’s death. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator shall distribute all benefits to a Beneficiary in a single lump sum as soon as practicable after the Participant’s death if (i) the value of
the Participant’s Account at the time of the Participant’s death is less than $5,000; (ii) the payment results in the termination and. liquidation of the entirety of the Participant’s benefit under this Plan and any other plan
that is treated, with this Plan, as a single nonqualified deferred compensation plan under IRS Regulation 1.409A-1(c)(2); and (iii) the aggregate of the payment from this Plan and the payment(s) from any other plan or plans described in
(ii) does not exceed the limit in effect under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B) for the year in which the payment occurs. 
 5.
Payment on Retirement. If a Participant incurs a Separation from Service as a result of the Participant’s Retirement, the Participant’s Account shall be paid at the time and in the manner elected by the Participant pursuant to
Sections F.I and 2, or, if no election has been made, in a single lump sum as soon as practicable after the Participant’s Retirement. 

6. Payment on Unforeseeable Emergency. Upon written request by a Participant, the Administrator may, in his or her sole discretion,
direct payment to the Participant of all or of a portion of the Participant’s Account, notwithstanding elections under Sections F.I and 2, if the Administrator determines that such Participant has suffered an Unforeseeable Emergency. 

Payment as a result of Unforeseeable Emergency will be made in a single lump sum and will not exceed the amount necessary to meet the
Unforeseeable Emergency plus taxes reasonably anticipated as a result of the payment. Payment will not be allowed to the extent that the Unforeseeable Emergency may be relieved through reimbursement or compensation by insurance or otherwise, or by
liquidation of the Participant’s assets (to the extent such liquidation would not itself cause an Unforeseeable Emergency). 
 In the
event a distribution is made under this Section F.6, the Participant’s Deferrals of Base Compensation and/or Annual Bonus shall cease, and the Participant shall not be eligible to make deferrals into the Plan for the remainder of the Plan Year
in which the withdrawal is made or for the immediately subsequent Plan Year. 
 7. Designation of Beneficiary. A Participant may
designate any person(s) or entity(ies) (who may be designated contingently or successively) as his or her Beneficiary. Such designation shall be in writing in a form prescribed by the Administrator and shall become effective only when filed with the
Administrator during the Participant’s lifetime. A Participant may change his or her Beneficiary, without the consent of any Beneficiary, by filing a new written designation with the Administrator. If a Participant is married on the date of his
or her death, any designation of Beneficiary that does not designate the Participant’s spouse to receive at least fifty percent (50%) of the Participant’s Account shall be effective only if consented to in writing by the Participant’s
spouse and witnessed by a Notary Public. A designation of beneficiary under the Deferred Compensation Administration Plan or the Salary Deferral Plan shall be deemed a designation of Beneficiary under this Plan until a designation of Beneficiary is
filed under this Plan. If a Participant fails to designate a Beneficiary, or if all Beneficiaries have predeceased the Participant, then the Participant’s 

  
 5 









 
Account shall be distributed (a) to the surviving spouse of such Participant, if any, or (b) if there is no surviving spouse, to the then living children, if any, of such Participant in
equal shares, or (c) if there is no surviving spouse and there are no then living children, to the executor or administrator of the estate of such Participant. 

8. Changing the Length of Deferral or Method of Payment. Notwithstanding Sections F.1 and F.2 above, as of September 1, 2007, a
Participant may elect a longer deferral period or a different method of payment (but not a shorter deferral period) provided that the following conditions are satisfied: 
  

	 	(A)	The new deferral period is at least five years longer than the previous deferral period. A change to the method of payment (i.e., from lump sum to installments, or vice-versa) must include the extension of the deferral
period described in this paragraph (A), though a Participant may extend the deferral period without also changing the method of payment. 

  

	 	(B)	The election is made not less than twelve months prior to the end of the original deferral period or, in the case of a change from a lump sum to installment payments, at least twelve months before the first such
installment payment to which it shall apply would otherwise be paid. 

 For purposes of an election described in this Section
F.8, a Participant’s installment payments shall be treated as a right to a series of separate payments, rather than as a single payment. 

An election is deemed to have been made for this purpose on the date it is received by an officer of the Company other than the Participant
making the election. 
  

	G.	SOURCE OF PAYMENT 

 Amounts paid under this Plan shall be paid from the general funds of
the Employers, and each Participant or Beneficiary shall be no more than an unsecured general creditor of his or her Employer with no right to any specific assets of the Employer (whose claim may be subordinated to those of other creditors of the
Employer). Nothing contained in this Plan shall be deemed to create a trust of any kind for the benefit of any Participant or Beneficiary, or create any fiduciary relationship between the Employers and any Participant or Beneficiary with respect to
any assets of the Employers. 
  

	H.	ADMINISTRATION 

 1. In General. The Administrator’s duties and authority
under this Plan shall include (i) the interpretation of the provisions of this Plan, (ii) the adoption of any rules and regulations that may become necessary or advisable in the operation of this Plan, (iii) the making of such determinations as may
be permitted or required pursuant to this Plan and (iv) the taking of such other action as may be required for the proper administration of this Plan in accordance with its terms. Any decision of the Administrator with respect to any matter within
the authority of the Administrator shall be final, binding and conclusive upon all parties. Benefits under this Plan shall be paid only if the Administrator decides, in his or her sole discretion, that the Participant, distributee, or other person
is entitled to them. 

  
 6 









 If the Director of Compensation, Benefits and HRIS of the Company is a Participant, any
discretionary action taken as Administrator that solely affects him or her as a Participant shall be specifically approved by the Committee and, in such case, the Committee shall have with respect to such matter all of the duties and authority of
the Administrator set forth in this Plan. 
 The Administrator may delegate to any Employer, committee, person (whether or not an employee
of an Employer) or entity any of his or her duties or authority under this Plan. 
 2. Elections and Notices. Notwithstanding
anything contained herein to the contrary, any communications regarding the Plan between the Administrator or Employer and an Eligible Executive, Participant or Beneficiary, shall be made in any means prescribed by the Administrator. Where the
Administrator does not prescribe an alternate means of communication, such communications must be made in writing and delivered to the Administrator via hand delivery or mail. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may prescribe that
certain types of communications shall be made exclusively by telephone or electronically. In such a case, the Administrator may not accept the written communication, or may delay the acceptance or implementation of the communication, as it deems
appropriate. 
 The Administrator may communicate with the Eligible Executives, Participants and Beneficiaries concerning this Plan using
such electronic means as it deems appropriate, provided that such use is, in the judgment of the Administrator, consistent with the Code and ERISA. 

3. Claims Procedure. 
 a.
Filing of Claim. If any Participant or Beneficiary believes he or she is entitled to benefits under this Plan in an amount greater than those which he or she is receiving or has received, the Participant or Beneficiary (or his or her duly
authorized representative) may file a claim with the Administrator. Such a claim shall be in writing and state the nature of the claim, the facts supporting the claim, the amount claimed and the address of the claimant. 

b. Review of Claim. The Administrator shall review the claim and, unless special circumstances require an extension of time, within 90
days after receipt of the claim give written or electronic notice to the claimant of his or her decision with respect to the claim. If special circumstances require an extension of time, the claimant shall be so advised in writing or by electronic
means within the initial 90-day period and in no event shall such an extension exceed 90 days. The notice of the decision of the Administrator with respect to the claim shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant and, if
the claim is wholly or partially denied, shall set forth the specific reasons for the denial, specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based, a description of any additional material or information necessary for
the claimant to perfect the claim and an explanation of why such material or information is necessary, and an explanation of the appeals procedure under this Plan and the time limits applicable to such procedure (including a statement of the
claimant’s right to bring a civil action under section 502(a) of ERISA following the final denial of a claim). 
 c. Appeal of Claim
Denial. The claimant (or his or her duly authorized representative) may request a review of the denial by filing with the Administrator a written 

  
 7 









 
request for such review within 60 days after notice of the denial has been received by the claimant. Within the same 60-day period, the claimant may submit to the Administrator written comments,
documents, records and other information relating to the claim. Upon request and free of charge, the claimant also may have reasonable access to, and copies of, documents, records and other information relevant to the claim. 

d. Review of Claim Denial. If a request for review is so filed, review of the denial shall be made by the Administrator and the
claimant shall be given written or electronic notice of the Administrator’s final decision within 60 days after receipt of such request, unless special circumstances require an extension of time. If special circumstances require an extension of
time, the claimant shall be so advised in writing or by electronic means within the initial 60-day period and in no event shall such an extension exceed 60 days. If the appeal of the claim is wholly or partially denied, the notice of the
Administrator’s final decision shall include specific reasons for the denial, specific references to the pertinent Plan provisions on which the denial is based and a statement that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of
charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all relevant documents, records and information. The notice shall be written in a manner calculated to be understood by the claimant and shall notify the claimant of his or her right to bring a civil
action under section 502(a) of ERISA. 
 4. Immunity of Administrator and Committee. The Administrator and members of the Committee
may rely upon any information, report or opinion supplied to it or them by a designated agent of any Employer or any legal counsel or independent public accountant, and shall be fully protected in relying upon any such information, report or
opinion. The Employers hereby jointly and severally indemnify the Administrator and members of the Committee from the effects and consequences of their acts, omissions and conduct in their official capacity, except to the extent such effects and
consequences result from their own willful misconduct or illegal acts. 
  

	I.	AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION 

 The Company may amend or terminate this Plan at any time,
provided that no such amendment or termination shall adversely affect the rights of any Participant or Beneficiary with respect to any benefit previously earned under this Plan without the consent of such Participant or Beneficiary. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Company may amend this Plan to comply with the provisions of section 409 A of the Code or guidance issued by the Treasury thereunder, regardless of the effect of such amendment on the rights of any Participant or Beneficiary with
respect to any benefit previously earned under this Plan. 
 If the Plan is terminated for reasons that do not satisfy the conditions for
early payment under Code Section 409A, the accrual of benefits under the Plan shall be frozen as of the termination date, but such frozen amounts shall be paid out under their original payment schedules or such other dates as may be permissible
under Code Section 409A. 
  

	J.	MISCELLANEOUS 

 1. Withholding. Notwithstanding any provision contained in this
Plan to the contrary, the appropriate amounts shall be withheld from any distribution made under this Plan or from a Participant’s compensation as may be required for purposes of complying with Federal, state, local or other tax withholding
requirements applicable to the benefits provided under this Plan. 

  
 8 









 If the whole or any part of any Participant’s or Beneficiary’s benefit hereunder shall
become subject to any estate, inheritance, income or other tax which the Company shall be required to pay or withhold, the Company shall have the full power and authority to withhold and pay such tax out of any monies or other property in its hand
for the account of the Participant or Beneficiary whose interests hereunder are so affected. Prior to making any payment the Company may require such releases or other documents from any lawful taxing authority as it shall deem necessary. The
Company may, in its sole discretion, withhold such amounts to the extent that doing so constitutes an impermissible acceleration of a payment to a Participant or Beneficiary under Code Section 409A. 

2. No Assignment. Except pursuant to will, the laws of descent or distribution or a beneficiary designation form effective on a
Participant’s death, the benefits provided under this Plan may not be alienated, assigned, transferred, pledged or hypothecated by the voluntary or involuntary act of any person, by operation of law, or otherwise. Any attempt to alienate,
assign, transfer, pledge or hypothecate the benefits provided under this Plan shall be null and void and without legal effect. The benefits provided under this Plan shall be exempt from the claims of creditors or other claimants and from all orders,
decrees, levies, garnishments or executions. 
 3. Applicable Law. This Plan shall be construed, administered and governed in all
respects in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia to the extent that the latter are not preempted by ERISA or other applicable federal law. 

4. Number and Headings. Wherever any words are used herein in the singular form they shall be construed as though they were also used
in the plural form in all cases where they would so apply. Headings of sections and subsections of this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not part of this Plan and are not to be considered in the construction thereof. 

5. Plan Not to Affect Employment Relationship. Neither the adoption of this Plan nor its operation shall in any way affect the right
and power of the Employers to dismiss or otherwise terminate the employment or change the terms of the employment or amount of compensation of any Participant at any time for any reason with or without cause. 

6. Inability to Locate Participant or Beneficiary. If the Administrator is unable to make payment of a Participant’s Account to
such Participant or his or her Beneficiary because the whereabouts of such person cannot be ascertained notwithstanding the mailing of notice to any last known address or addresses, then such Participant’s Account shall be forfeited. If the
Participant or Beneficiary later makes a claim for a benefit under this Plan, and that claim for benefit is granted, the amount in the Participant’s Account that was forfeited shall be paid to the Participant or Beneficiary without regard to
any subsequent gain. 
 7. Distributions to Minor and Incapacitated Individuals. If a payment is to be made to a minor or to an
individual who, in the opinion of the Administrator, is unable to manage his or her affairs by reason of illness or mental incompetence, such payment may be made to or for the benefit of any such individual in such of the following ways as the legal
representative of such individual shall direct: (a) directly to any such minor individual if, in the opinion of such legal representative, such individual is able to manage his or her affairs, (b) to such legal representative, (c) to a custodian
under a Uniform Gifts to Minors Act for any such minor individual, or (d) to some near relative of any such individual to be used for the latter’s benefit. Neither the Administrator nor any Employer shall be required to see to the


  
 9 









 
application by any third party other than the legal representative of an individual of any payment made to or for the benefit of such individual pursuant to this Section. Any payment so made
shall be in complete discharge of this Plan’s obligations to such individual. 
 8. Successors and Assigns. This Plan is binding
on all persons entitled to benefits hereunder and their respective heirs and legal representatives and on the Employers and their successors. 

9. Severability. If any provision of this Plan shall be held invalid or unenforceable for any reason, such invalidity or
unenforceability shall not affect the remaining provisions of this Plan, and this Plan shall be construed and enforced as if the invalid or unenforceable provision had never been set forth herein. 

10. If the whole or any part of any Participant’s or Beneficiary’s benefit hereunder shall be determined by the Internal Revenue
Service to be subject to federal income tax in an earlier year than such benefit otherwise becomes distributable under the Plan because the arrangement fails to meet the requirements of Code Section 409A or the regulations thereunder, the
Participant shall have the right to receive his benefit from the Plan in an amount equal to the amount upon which the income tax due is based.
