 Dear Jason: 

I am very pleased to outline in this letter (the “Offer Letter”) the terms and conditions on which we are offering you the position of Chief
Accounting Officer of Cott Corporation (the “Company”). This Offer Letter will not constitute an agreement until it has been fully executed by both parties. Please note that this Offer Letter does not contemplate a contract or
promise of employment for any specific term; you will be an at will employee at all times. 
 1. Position and Duties.  

1.1 Position. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, you will be employed by the Company as its Chief Accounting Officer,
effective as of May 15th, 2015 (the “Employment Date”). 
 1.2 Responsibilities. 

(a) As the Company’s Chief Accounting Officer, you will report to the Chief Financial Officer and have such duties and responsibilities
as may be assigned to you from time to time by the Chief Financial Officer. 
 (b) You agree to devote all of your business time and
attention to the business and affairs of the Company and to discharging the responsibilities assigned to you. This shall not preclude you from (i) serving on the boards of directors of a reasonable number of charitable organizations,
(ii) engaging in charitable activities and community affairs, and (iii) managing your personal affairs, so long as these activities do not interfere with the performance of your duties and responsibilities as the Company’s Chief
Accounting Officer. 
 1.3 No Employment Restriction. You hereby represent and covenant that, except as disclosed to the
Company, your employment by the Company does not violate any agreement or covenant to which you are subject or by which you are bound and that there is no such agreement or covenant that could restrict or impair your ability to perform your duties
or discharge your responsibilities to the Company. 

 2. Remuneration. 

2.1 Base Salary. Your annual base salary will initially be at the rate of US $250,000 (“Annual Base Salary”),
paid on a bi-weekly basis, pro-rated for any partial periods based on the actual number of days in the applicable period. Your performance will be evaluated at least annually, and any increase to the level of your Annual Base Salary will be
determined as part of the regular annual review process. 
 2.2 Bonus. You will be eligible to participate in the
Company’s annual bonus plan and may earn a bonus based upon the achievement of specified performance goals. The amount of your target bonus is 50% of your Annual Base Salary. Currently the maximum potential payout permitted under the bonus plan
is two (2) times the applicable target bonus for achievement of performance goals significantly in excess of the target goals, as established by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Please
note that the bonus plan is entirely discretionary and the Company reserves in its absolute discretion the right to terminate or amend it or any other bonus plan that may be established. 

3. Benefits.  
 3.1 Benefit
Program. You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s benefit programs generally available to other senior executives of the Company. Our benefit programs include health, disability and life insurance benefits. Employee

3.2 401(k) Plan. In addition, you will continue to be eligible to participate in the Company’s 401(k) Savings and
Retirement Plan. 
 3.3 Vacation. You will be entitled to four (4) weeks vacation per calendar year. You are encouraged
to take vacation in the calendar year it is earned. All earned vacation must be taken in the year in which it is earned; otherwise it may be forfeited. If you should leave the Company, the value of any unearned vacation taken by you will be
considered a debt to the Company. All vacation periods require the approval of the Chief Financial Officer. 
 3.4
Reimbursement. You will be reimbursed for expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the performance of your duties in accordance with the Company’s policies as established from time to time. 

3.5 No Other Benefits. You will not be entitled to any benefit or perquisite other than as specifically set out in this Offer
Letter or separately agreed to in writing by the Company. 
 4. Termination; Payments and Entitlements Upon a Termination.  

4.1 Termination. The Company may terminate your employment: (a) for Cause (as defined in Exhibit A), (b) upon your
Disability (as defined in Exhibit A), or (c) for any reason or no reason, in all cases, upon reasonable notice to you. Your employment with the Company will terminate upon your death. 

 4.2 Involuntary Termination. Subject to Sections 4.3, 8.9, and 10.11, if your
employment is terminated following the date of this Offer Letter (i) by the Company without Cause other than by reason of your Disability or (ii) by you for Good Reason (either (i) or (ii), an “Involuntary
Termination”), you will be entitled to the following payments and entitlements: 
 (a) Cash Severance Payment. You will
receive a cash payment in an amount equal to six months of your then Annual Base Salary (the “Severance Amount”). The Severance Amount will be paid in a lump sum, less all applicable withholding taxes, within thirty (30) days
after the Involuntary Termination, except in the case of an Involuntary Termination that is part of a group termination program, in which case the payment shall be made within sixty (60) days. The Severance Amount will not be considered as
compensation for purposes of determining benefits under any other qualified or non-qualified plans of the Company. 
 (b) Accrued Salary
and Vacation. You will be paid all salary and accrued vacation pay earned through the date of your termination, less all applicable withholding taxes, on the first regular pay date following the date of your termination. 

(c) No Other Payments. Upon payment of the amounts to be paid pursuant to Sections 4.2(a) and 4.2(b), the Company shall have no further
liability hereunder. 
 4.3 Release Required. You will not be entitled to receive the payment set forth in Section 4.2(a)
and, if applicable, Section 7, unless you execute, at least seven days before the date payment is due to be made, and do not revoke, a release in the form of Exhibit B in favor of the Company and related parties relating to all claims or
liabilities of any kind relating to your employment with the Company and the Involuntary Termination of such employment. 
 5. Other

payments, entitlements or benefits other than Annual Base Salary earned through the date of termination and reimbursement for expenses through the date of termination and, in either case, not yet paid. For greater certainty, with respect to a
termination by reason of death or by reason of a Disability, nothing in this Offer Letter shall derogate from any rights and/or entitlements that you may be entitled to receive under any other equity compensation or benefit plan of the Company
applicable to you.

the Company at the time of your termination, you will be deemed to have resigned all such positions, and you agree that upon termination you will execute such tenders of resignation as may be requested by the Company to evidence such resignations.

United States or on the NASDAQ. 
 (c) If you are at any time in violation of any provision of this Section 8.4, then each time
limitation set forth in this Section 8.4 shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period of time during which such violation or violations occur. If the Company seeks injunctive relief from any such violation, then the covenants set

be unenforceable as going beyond what is reasonable in the circumstances for the protection of the interests of the Company but would be valid, for example, if the scope of their time periods or geographic areas were limited, the parties consent to
the court making such modifications as may be required and such restrictions shall apply with such modifications as may be necessary to make them valid and effective. 

8.8 Survival of Restrictions. Each and every provision of this Section 8 shall survive the termination of this Offer Letter

 1.4 Term. The term of this Offer Letter is for a period
commencing on the date hereof and ending on May 31, 2018. In the event you decide not to remain in the United States during the term of this Offer Letter, the Company will use reasonable commercial efforts to find you a position of similar

Annual Base Salary.

performance goals significantly in excess of the target goals, as established by the Human Resources and Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Please note that the bonus plan is entirely discretionary and the Company

take vacation in the calendar year it is earned. All earned vacation must be taken by March 31st of the year following the year in which it is earned; otherwise it may be forfeited. If you should leave the Company, the value of any unearned
vacation taken by you will be considered a debt to the Company. All vacation periods require the approval of the Chief Executive Officer. 

3.3 Reimbursement. You will be reimbursed for expenses reasonably incurred in connection with the performance of your duties in
accordance with the Company’s policies as established from time to time, including reimbursement for air travel to the United Kingdom on a monthly basis.

(a) Cash Severance Payment. You will receive the Severance Amount (as defined in the Severance Plan) associated with a “Level
2 Employee” (as such term is used in the Severance Plan). The Severance Amount will be paid in a lump sum, less all applicable withholding taxes, within thirty (30) days after the Involuntary Termination, except in the case of an
Involuntary Termination that is part of a group termination program, in which case the payment shall be made within sixty (60) days. The Severance Amount will not be considered as compensation for purposes of determining benefits under any
other qualified or non-qualified plans of the Company. 
 (b) Accrued Salary and Vacation. You will be paid all salary and accrued
vacation pay earned through the date of your termination, less all applicable withholding taxes, on the first regular pay date following the date of your termination.

liability hereunder. 
 4.3 Release Required. You will not be entitled to receive the payment set forth in Section 4.2(a)
and, if applicable, Section 9, unless you execute, at least seven days before the date payment is due to be made, and do not revoke, a release in the form of release set forth in the Severance Plan in favor of the Company and related parties
relating to all claims or liabilities of any kind relating to your employment with the Company and the Involuntary Termination of such employment.

certainty, with respect to a termination by reason of death or by reason of a Disability, nothing in this Offer Letter shall derogate from any rights and/or entitlements that you may be entitled to receive under any other equity compensation or
benefit plan of the Company applicable to you. If your employment is terminated by your resignation, you agree to give the Company 60 days’ prior notice in order to ensure an efficient transition. 

 6. Resignation. If you are a director of the Company or a director or an officer of a company
affiliated or related to the Company at the time of your termination, you will be deemed to have resigned all such positions, and you agree that upon termination you will execute such tenders of resignation as may be requested by the Company to
evidence such resignations.

Company’s equity plans in effect from time to time. Any equity awards granted to you under the equity plans shall be forfeited or not, vest or not, and, in the case of stock options and stock appreciation rights, become exercisable or not, as
provided by and subject to the terms of the applicable equity plan.

this Section 8.4 shall be extended for a period of time equal to the period of time during which such violation or violations occur. If the Company seeks injunctive relief from any such violation, then the covenants set forth shall be extended
for a period of time equal to the pendency of the proceeding in which relief is sought, including all appeals therefrom.

the operation of restrictions contained in this Section 8 may seriously constrain your freedom to seek other remunerative employment. If any of the restrictions are determined to be unenforceable as going beyond what is reasonable in the
circumstances for the protection of the interests of the Company but would be valid, for example, if the scope of their time periods or geographic areas were limited, the parties consent to the court making such modifications as may be required and
such restrictions shall apply with such modifications as may be necessary to make them valid and effective.
