The table below sets out the impact to your Award (if any) upon certain employment events. The terms of the table below apply to vested and unvested portions of an Award equally, unless otherwise stated. Except as otherwise specified herein, all other terms and conditions of your Award continue to apply.

						
	Event

	Disability	Whether your employment with the Company or a Subsidiary terminates because of Disability or whether you remain employed, there is no impact to your Award.
	Death	Any Award that has not been accepted terminates immediately upon your death and may not be transferred to your heirs.
If you die while employed with the Company or a Subsidiary, your Award immediately vests, and your estate will be paid, within 90 days after your death, a cash amount equal to the value of (1) the target number of shares of Stock subject to the Award, if you die before the end of the performance period, or (2) the shares of Stock earned, if you die after the end of the performance period. The value shall be determined based on the closing price of the Stock on the date of death (or in the case of a non-trading day, the next trading day).

	Leave of absences	If you are on (1) US military leave, (2) a Company-paid leave of absence, or (3) an unpaid leave of absence (pursuant to published Company policy) of 12 months or less, there is no impact to your Award. 
For all other leaves of absence not specified in the paragraph above, including all unpaid leaves that extend beyond 12 months:
•any portion of your Award that is unvested at the date the leave began is immediately forfeited; or 
•if the Committee identifies a valid business interest in doing otherwise, it may specify what provisions it deems appropriate at its sole discretion (provided that the Committee shall have no obligation to consider any such matters).

	Transfer	If you transfer (1) between the Company and any Subsidiary or, (2) at the Committee’s discretion, to an Affiliate that is not a Subsidiary, there is no impact to your Award.
	Termination1	A.If you are involuntary terminated from the Company or a Subsidiary after attaining age 50 and completing 10 Years of Service because of a reduction in workforce, internal reorganization, or job elimination and you sign a release of all claims and, if requested, an agreement on confidentiality and competition:






1  If required by Section 409A of the Code, the payment may not be made (if applicable) until at least six months following the termination date.
3








						
	Event
	Impact to your Award

		•Awards held less than 12 months are immediately forfeited, and 
•there is no impact on Awards held at least 12 months, except that the number of shares of Stock you (or your estate if you die after termination) are eligible to receive will be prorated, based on your calendar months of service during the performance period through your termination date, with any partial months counting as whole months.

	B.If your employment with the Company or a Subsidiary terminates after attaining age 60 and completing 10 Years of Service:
•Awards held less than 12 months are immediately forfeited, and
•there is no impact on Awards held at least 12 months.

	C.If your employment with the Company or a Subsidiary terminates involuntarily for any reason other than for cause within one year after a Change in Control, your Award will be treated as described in the Plan.

		D.If your employment (1) with the Company or a Subsidiary terminates for any other reason, or (2) with an Affiliate (that is not a Subsidiary) terminates for any reason, your Award is immediately forfeited.2





In the table above, Years of Service means "Years of Vesting Service" as that term is defined in The Coca-Cola Company Pension Plan, regardless of whether you are a participant in that plan.
For the purposes of your Award, you are deemed to have terminated employment on the date you are no longer actively providing services to the relevant entity or entities, regardless of the reasons for termination and whether or not later found to be invalid or in breach of your employment agreement, if any, or employment laws in the jurisdiction where you are employed. The Committee has exclusive discretion to decide when you are considered to be no longer actively providing services for the purposes of your Award. However, you will not be considered to be actively providing services during any contractual notice period or any period of “garden leave” or similar period mandated under employment laws in the jurisdiction where you are employed or in your employment agreement, if any, unless the Committee decides otherwise.





2  This would apply in the case where the Committee determined that your transfer to the Affiliate would not impact your Award. If your employer no longer meets the definition of “Affiliate”, you are deemed to have terminated employment for the purposes of the Plan.

21










with the Company or a Subsidiary (as defined in the Plan) (1) because of your Disability, or (2) after attaining age 55 and completing 10 Years of Service:
Awards that are Options and Awards held at least 12 months will immediately vest and will be settled in cash. The cash amount will be determined based on the closing price of the Stock on the date of your termination of employment (or, if a non-trading day, the next trading day) or the exercise of your Option (if applicable) within the post-termination exercise period stated below. Awards that are not Options and that are held less than 12 months from the date of grant are forfeited.
Where Performance Criteria apply, the Performance Criteria will be measured over a shortened performance period, ending at the end of the year prior to your termination of employment.
If your Award is an Option, the period over which you may exercise your Option expires upon earlier of (1) six months from your termination of employment or (2) the Option expiration date provided in the Plan Documents.
The Company has the discretion to arrange for the sale of any Stock issued upon settlement of your Award, either immediately upon settlement or at any time thereafter. In any event, if you terminate employment, you will be required to sell all Stock acquired upon settlement of the Award within such time period as required by the Company in accordance with SAFE requirements. Any Stock remaining in your brokerage account at the end of this period shall be sold by the broker (on your behalf pursuant to this authorization and without further consent). In addition, any Award that has not vested by the end of this period will then immediately be forfeited. The Company shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when your employment has been terminated for the purposes of the Award.


You agree to sign any additional agreements, forms and/or consents that reasonably may be requested by the Company (or the Company’s designated broker) to effectuate the sale of the Stock (including, without limitation, as to the transfer of the sale proceeds and other exchange control matters noted below) and shall otherwise cooperate with the Company with respect to such matters. You acknowledge that neither the Company nor the designated broker is under any obligation to arrange for the sale of Stock at any particular price (it being understood that the sale will occur in the market) and that broker’s fees and similar expenses may be incurred in any such sale. In any event, when the Stock is sold, the sale proceeds, less any withholding for applicable taxes, any broker’s fees or commissions, and any similar expenses of the sale will be remitted to you in accordance with applicable exchange control laws and regulations.
By accepting the Award, you acknowledge that you understand and agree that you are not permitted to transfer any Stock acquired under the Plan out of your account established with the Company’s designated broker until the Stock is sold. The limitation applies to all Stock issued to you under the Plan, whether or not you remained employed with the Company or a Subsidiary. 
You understand and agree that you will be required to immediately repatriate to China the proceeds from the sale of any Stock acquired under the Plan and any such dividends paid on such shares. You further understand that such repatriation proceeds may need to be effected through a special bank account established by the Company (or a Subsidiary or Affiliate in China), and you hereby consent and agree that any sale proceeds and cash dividends may be transferred to such special account by the Company (or a Subsidiary or Affiliate in China) on your behalf prior to being delivered to you and that no interest shall be paid with respect to funds held in such account.
The proceeds may be paid to you in U.S. dollars or local currency at the Company’s discretion. If the proceeds are paid to you in U.S. dollars, you understand that a U.S. dollar bank account in China must be established and maintained so that the proceeds may be deposited into such account. If the proceeds are paid to you in local currency, you acknowledge that the Company (and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates) are under no obligation to secure any particular exchange conversion rate and that the Company (and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates) may face delays in converting the proceeds to local currency due to exchange control restrictions. You agree to bear any currency fluctuation risk between the time the Stock is sold and the net proceeds are converted into local currency and distributed to you. You further agree to comply 

22










with any other requirements that may be imposed by the Company in the future in order to facilitate compliance with exchange control requirements in China.
In addition to the vesting schedule for your Award, settlement of the Award is also conditioned on the continued effectiveness of the Company’s registration of the Plan with SAFE (the SAFE Registration Requirement). If or to the extent the Company is unable to maintain the registration, no Stock for which a registration cannot be maintained shall be issued. In this case, the Company retains the discretion to settle any Award for which the vesting schedule, but not the SAFE Registration Requirement, has been met in cash paid through local payroll in an amount equal to the market value of the Stock subject to the Award less any withholding for applicable taxes. 
The Company (and its Subsidiaries and Affiliates) shall not be liable for any costs, fees, lost interest or dividends or other losses that you may incur or suffer resulting from the enforcement of the foregoing terms or otherwise from the Company’s operation and enforcement of the Plan, the Award Agreement, and the Award in accordance with any applicable laws, rules, regulations and requirements.

16.If you are subject to the laws of New Zealand
You are being offered an Award which, if vested, will entitle you to acquire Stock in accordance with the terms of the Plan Documents. The Stock, if issued, will give you a stake in the ownership of the Company. You may receive a return if dividends are paid.
If the Company runs into financial difficulties and is wound up, you will be paid only after all creditors and holders of preference shares (if any) have been paid. You may lose some or all of your investment, if any.
New Zealand law normally requires people who offer financial products to give information to investors before they invest. This information is designed to help investors to make an informed decision. The usual rules do not apply to this offer because it is made under an employee share scheme. As a result, you may not be given all the information usually required. You will also have fewer other legal protections for this investment. You are advised to ask questions, read all documents carefully, and seek independent financial advice before committing.
