 4.5. The Committee shall have the power to adopt regulations for carrying out the Plan
and to make changes to such regulations as it shall, from time to time, deem advisable. Any interpretation by the Committee of the terms and provisions of the Plan and the administration thereof, and all actions taken by the Committee, shall be
final and binding on Holders. 
 4.6. The Committee may amend any outstanding Awards without the consent of the Holder to the
extent it deems appropriate; provided however, that, in the case of amendments adverse to the Holder, the Committee must obtain the Holder’s consent to any such amendment.

 SHARES OF STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN 
 5.1. Subject to adjustment as provided in ARTICLE VII, the total number of shares of Common Stock available for Awards under the Plan
shall be 336,666.67 shares. 
 5.2. Any shares issued by the Company through the assumption or substitution of outstanding

determination of the number of Restricted Shares to be granted to the Holder, the Committee shall direct that a certificate or certificates representing that number of shares of Common Stock be issued to the Holder with the Holder designated as the
registered owner. The certificate(s) representing such shares shall bear appropriate legends as to sale, transfer, assignment, pledge or other encumbrances to which such shares are subject, both during the Restriction Period and thereafter under the
Stockholders Agreement, and shall be deposited by the Holder, together with a stock power endorsed in blank, with the Company, to be held in escrow during the Restriction Period.

 -6- 

 6.4. The Award Agreement shall specify the duration of the Restriction Period and the
financial, performance, employment, termination of employment or other conditions under which the Restricted Shares may be forfeited to the Company. At the end of the Restriction Period, when all such conditions have been satisfied, the restrictions
imposed hereunder shall lapse with respect to the number of Restricted Shares as determined by the Committee, and any legend described in Section 6.2 that is then no longer applicable shall be removed and such number of shares delivered to the
Holder (or, where appropriate, the Holder’s legal representative). The Board may, in its sole discretion, modify (in a manner not adverse to the Holder except as provided in Section 6.5 below) or accelerate the vesting and delivery
of Restricted Shares. The Board shall endeavor, in good faith, to avoid the application of Section 409A of the Code to any amended Award by reason of the acceleration of (i) the vesting of any Award under the Plan, or (ii) the time of
any payment under the Plan. 
 6.5. A Holder or Successor who is awarded Restricted Shares shall, regardless of whether the
Restriction Period with regard to such Award has lapsed, be bound by the Stockholders Agreement to the same extent as would a Management Investor, as that term is defined in the Stockholders Agreement. Accordingly, any Restricted Shares issued under
the Plan shall be held, transferred, sold or otherwise disposed of only in accordance with the Stockholders Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Holder or Successor shall comply with the provisions set forth in the
Stockholders Agreement with regard to a Change in Control, as well as be bound by any transfer restrictions, restrictive covenants and other obligations delineated in the Stockholders Agreement. 
 6.6. Upon a Change in Control, or a Public Offering, or the exercise of the Committee’s discretion to vest all Awards under
Section 4.3, any then outstanding Awards shall be treated as provided in the applicable Award Agreement. 
 6.7. Unless
specifically provided otherwise in an Award Agreement, or as determined by the Committee in the event of termination for Cause, upon a termination of a Holder’s employment (in the case of an Employee) or directorship (in the case of a Director)
for any reason, the Holder’s Restricted Shares shall be subject to the Company’s repurchase as described in ARTICLE IX below. 
  

 -7- 

 ARTICLE VII. 
 ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION 
 7.1. In the event of a reorganization,
recapitalization, stock split, spin-off, split-off, split-up, stock dividend, issuance of stock rights, combination of shares, merger, consolidation or any other change in the corporate structure of the Company affecting Common Stock, or any
distribution to stockholders other than a cash dividend, the Committee shall make appropriate adjustment in the number and kind of shares authorized by the Plan and any other adjustments to outstanding Awards as it determines appropriate.

 ARTICLE VIII. 
 EFFECTIVE DATE,
TERMINATION AND AMENDMENT 
 8.1. The Plan shall become effective on November 15, 2006 and shall remain in full force
and effect until the earlier of ten years from the date of its adoption by the Board, or the date it is terminated by the Board. The Board shall have the power to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, provided that any such termination
of the Plan shall not affect Awards outstanding under the Plan at the time of termination. 
 ARTICLE IX. 
 REPURCHASE OF VESTED AWARDS 
 9.1. In the event that no Public Offering has occurred and the Holder shall cease to be employed by the Company or its Subsidiary for any reason (including, but not limited to, death, temporary or permanent disability, retirement at age 65
or more under normal retirement policies, resignation or termination by the Company or a Subsidiary) within five years of the Closing Date (as defined in the Stockholders Agreement) in the case of an Initial Grant or within five years of the date of
any subsequent grant of Restricted Shares, the Company shall have the right and option to purchase all of the Holder’s Restricted Shares that are vested or otherwise have not been forfeited on the terms set forth in Section 3.2 of the
Stockholders Agreement. Unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the purchase price paid by the Company shall be the “Option Purchase Price” as such term is defined in Section 3.2(c) of the Stockholders Agreement. 
 ARTICLE X. 
 TRANSFERABILITY 
 10.1. Except as provided below, Awards may not be pledged, assigned or transferred for any reason during the Holder’s lifetime, and
any attempt to do so shall be void and the relevant Award shall be forfeited. The Committee may grant Awards that are transferable by the Holder during his lifetime, but such Awards shall be transferable only to the extent specifically 

  

 -8- 

 
provided in an agreement entered into with the Holder and subject to the Stockholders Agreement. The transferee of the Holder shall, in all cases, be subject
to the Plan, the Stockholders Agreement and the provisions of the Award Agreement between the Company and the Holder. 
 ARTICLE XI.

 GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 11.1. Nothing contained in the Plan, or any Award granted pursuant to the Plan, shall confer upon any Employee any right to continued employment by the Company or any Subsidiary, nor interfere in any way with the right of the Company or a
Subsidiary to terminate the employment of any Employee at any time. 
 11.2. For purposes of this Plan, a transfer of
employment between the Company and its Subsidiaries shall not be deemed a termination of employment. 
 11.3. Holders shall
be responsible to make appropriate provision for all taxes required to be withheld in connection with any Award or the transfer of shares of Common Stock pursuant to this Plan. Such responsibility shall extend to all applicable Federal, state, local
or foreign withholding taxes. The Company may, at the request of the Holder, have the right to retain the number of shares of Common Stock whose Fair Market Value equals the amount legally required to be withheld in satisfaction of the applicable
withholding taxes. If the Company agrees to such withholding of Common Stock, the number of shares to be withheld shall be that number, the fair market value of which, equals, or exceeds by less than the value of a whole share, the legally required
withholdings. The value of any factional share in excess of the legally required withholdings shall be paid to the Holder in cash. 
 11.4. To the extent that Federal laws (such as the 1934 Act, the Code or the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974) do not otherwise control, the Plan and all determinations made and actions taken pursuant hereto shall be governed
by the laws of Delaware and construed accordingly. 
  

 -9-Employment Termination Agreement

 Exhibit 10.1 
 Monday, January 14, 2008 
 WITHOUT PREJUDICE 
 DELIVERED TO: 
 Wynn Willard 
 Dear Wynn 
 Re: Cott Corporation (“Cott”) – Termination of Employment 
 We are writing to notify you that your employment with Cott is hereby terminated without cause, effective
February 29th, 2008. 
 Cott appreciates your
contribution to the corporation and with a view to resolving all matters on an amicable basis, has prepared the following severance arrangements (collectively, with Schedules “1” and “2,” the “Separation Agreement and
Release”): 
  

	1.	Date of Termination 

 The effective date of termination of
employment is February 29th, 2008 (the “Termination Date”). 
  

	2.	Accrued Salary and Vacation Pay 

 You will be paid your salary and
accrued vacation pay to the Termination Date. These payments will be less applicable statutory deductions and withholdings and paid in a lump-sum payment during the next pay period immediately following the Termination Date, provided that you have
first executed this Separation Agreement and Release and have not revoked it within the time period permitted. In addition, you are eligible for a bonus for the 2007 fiscal year in accordance with the terms and conditions of Cott’s annual
incentive program; provided, however, that Cott shall retain absolute discretion to determine the amount, if any, of such bonus. 
  

	3.	Severance Payment and Out-Placement 

 As outlined in your Retention,
Severance and Non-Competition Plan Agreement dated May 11, 2007 and in the Amended and Restated Retention, Severance and Non-Competition Plan dated June 25, 2007 (collectively, the “Retention Agreement”), we have agreed to pay
you a lump-sum payment equal to 2 times your annual base salary, car allowance, bonus at target and a prorated bonus for the current bonus year, as outlined below. You will receive these payments on the first pay run occurring at least five business
days after the later of (a) the Termination Date and (b) the date on which this Separation Agreement and General Release becomes irrevocable. Such payments will be made on the basis that you will continue to perform your duties and our
agreement to make such payments will be null and void if the reason for termination is Cause or resignation without Good Reason (as such terms are defined in the Retention Agreement) before the Termination Date. We agree, however, that your
compliance with our request not to come into Cott’s offices or to take on a reduced role in performance of service for Cott shall not be deemed a resignation without Good Reason. 

 The payment will be equal to $1,657,111 (less applicable withholdings), calculated as follows; 
 Annual Base Salary ($386,250) + Car Allowance ($16,000) + Bonus @ Target ($386,250) = a total amount of $788,500  
 Multiple by 2 X = $1,577,000 + Plus Pro-rated Bonus @ Target equal to 2 months ($64,375) and Buy Out of Annual Medical Assessment ($15,736) to equal the total of
$1,657,111 
 Your participation in the Performance Share Unit Plan will cease with immediate effect on your Termination Date. The Performance Share
Unit (PSU) awards provided to you in 2006 and 2007 will be pro-rated basis based on your Termination Date as follows; 2 year and 2 months of the 2006 award at target and 1 year and 2 months of the 2007 award at target (totalling 36,238 PSU’s,
in the aggregate). The pro rated basis PSU’s described above may become payable to you based on the performance goals of the plan being achieved, as provided for in the plan and as approved by the Board. Such payouts will be determined at the
end of the performance cycle for each plan and will be payable at the same time that such payouts are made to other participants. This is subject to, and without any limitation to, any additional rights you may have under the Retention Agreement,
including without limitation, additional rights arising on a Change of Control during a Change of Control Window (as such terms are defined in the Retention Agreement). 
 In addition, we will pay for the cost of the following outplacement services for a maximum of six (6) months with Right Management Consultants: Executive Service. A copy of the summary of the Executive Service
level benefit package is being provided to you with this Separation Agreement and Release. The outplacement services will not be available to you after February 28th, 2010. 
  

	4.	Benefits 

 We
confirm that the following benefits will continue for a period of 24 months following the Termination Date or until alternative employment is secured that provides comparable benefits: Extended Health Care, Dental and Vision, Basic Life and AD&D
and Executive Long Term Care Insurance. All other benefits will terminate effective February 29th, 2008. 
  

	5.	Expenses 

 To the extent that you have incurred any proper travel,
entertainment or other business expenses, you will be reimbursed in accordance with Cott’s policy. All expense reports must be submitted within 30 days of your Termination Date. 
  

	6.	Stock Options/Share Purchase Plan/DPSP/RSP 

 All of your rights with
respect to vested stock options that you hold personally will continue after the termination of your employment, subject to the provisions of the Cott’s Restated 1986 Common Share Option Plan as amended (the “Option Plan”), for 60
days following the Termination Date, and thereafter such options shall be null and void. 
 All other rights under Cott’s share purchase plans (other
than the PSU Plan under which your entitlement shall be as described as above) and other long-term incentive plans, including, without limitation, all rights to unvested shares under the 401k Plan and Employee Share Purchase Plan shall terminate on
the Termination Date in accordance with those plans. Rights under these plans that have vested as of the Termination Date will continue in accordance with and subject to the terms of the applicable plans. 
  

 2 

	7.	Effect of Employment Agreement 

 The parties acknowledge and agree
that the employment agreement between Cott and you dated August 1, 2006 (the “Employment Agreement”) shall be of no further effect after the Termination Date; provide, however, that Sections 6.2 and 6.3 shall continue to be effective
for a period not less than the statute of limitations applicable to any claims. 
  

	8.	No Other Payments 

 Other than as set out in Section 7 of the
Retention Agreement, the payments and other entitlements set out or referenced in this Separation Agreement and Release, constitute your complete entitlement and Cott’s complete obligations whatsoever, including with respect to the cessation of
your employment, whether at common law, statute or contract. For greater certainty, we confirm that, other than as set out in Section 7 of the Retention Agreement and in this Separation Agreement and Release, you are not entitled to any further
payment (including any bonus payments), benefits, perquisites, allowances or entitlements earned or owing to you from Cott pursuant to any employment or any other agreement, whether written or oral, whatsoever, all having ceased on the Termination
Date without further obligation from Cott. All amounts paid to you pursuant to this letter shall be deemed to include all amounts owing pursuant to the Employment Standards Act, 2000 and any applicable state wage payment or wage collection
law, and such payments represent a greater right or benefit than that required under the Employment Standards Act, 2000 and any applicable state wage payment or wage collection law. 
  

	9.	Resignation & Release 

 You will resign as an officer and
director of Cott (and any direct and indirect affiliates, subsidiaries and associated companies) with effect as of the Termination Date. In this respect, you agree to execute and deliver the Resignation Notice attached hereto as Schedule
“1” and such further documentation as may reasonably be required by Cott, in its sole discretion, in order to effect this resignation. You agree to sign, no earlier than your last day of active employment with Cott, the Release Agreement
in the form attached as Schedule “2” to this Separation Agreement and Release and further agree that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Retention Agreement, your execution without revocation of the Release Agreement is a
condition precedent to you receiving any severance payments hereunder that are in excess of payments required by statute. 
  

	10.	Your Continuing Obligations 

  

	 	(a)	You will continue to abide by all of the provisions of your Employment Agreement through the Termination Date, and with all of the provisions of the Retention Agreement through the
Termination Date and at all times thereafter following the cessation of your employment in accordance with and subject to the terms of the Retention Agreement (including Section 8 thereof) and this Separation Agreement and Release.

  

	 	(b)	 You are required to return to Cott within five (5) business days of the Termination Date all of the property of Cott in your possession or in the possession of
your 

  

 3 

	 	 
family or agents including, without limitation, wireless devices and accessories, computer and office equipment, keys, passes, credit cards, customer lists,
sales materials, manuals, computer information, software and codes, files and all documentation (and all copies thereof) dealing with the finances, operations and activities of Cott, its clients, employees or suppliers. 

 

	 	(c)	You will maintain the severance arrangements as set out in this Separation Agreement and Release in the strictest confidence and will not disclose them except to your immediate
family, or to the extent that such disclosure may be required by law, or to permit you to obtain tax planning, legal or similar advice. 

  

	 	(d)	You will agree to cooperate reasonably with Cott, and its legal advisors, at Cott’s request, direction and reasonable cost, in connection with: (i) any Cott business
matters in which you were involved during your employment with Cott; or (ii) any existing or potential claims, investigations, administrative proceedings, lawsuits and other legal and business matters which arose during your employment
involving Cott; (iii) effecting routine administrative compliance with respect to any regulatory requirements that were applicable to Cott during the period of your employment; and (iv) completing any further documents required to give

from and against any and all damages, taxes, penalties, interest, expenses and any other costs imposed under, in connection with, or related to Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), with respect
to payments and benefits provided pursuant to this Separation Agreement and Release including, but not limited to, any penalties associated with failure to report or failure to withhold. 

  

	11.	Taxes 

 All payments referred to in this letter will be less
applicable withholdings and deductions, and you shall be responsible for all tax liability resulting from your receipt of the payment and benefits referred to in this letter, except (i) to the extent that Cott has withheld funds for remittance
to statutory authorities, and (ii) to the extent provided otherwise in your Retention Agreement with respect to any Gross-Up Payment. For greater certainty, we confirm that Section 7 of the Retention Agreement provides for a Gross-Up
Payment in connection with any excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code and not in connection with any tax, penalty or interest imposed under (or in connection with) Section 409A of the Code. In no event are you entitled to any
payment from Cott with respect to any tax, penalty or interest imposed under (or in connection with) Section 409A of the Code, and in no event shall any such tax, penalty or interest be taken into account for purposes of determining the amount
of any payment due under Section 7 of the Retention Agreement. 
  

	12.	General 

  

	 	(a)	 Entire Agreement: Except as otherwise specified in this Agreement, this Separation Agreement and Release constitutes the entire agreement between you and
Cott with 

  

 4

Agreement is expressly incorporated in this letter.

 2. In consideration of the payment and benefits set forth in the Plan and the Corporation’s release set forth in paragraph 5, the Employee
voluntarily, knowingly and willingly releases and forever discharges the Corporation and its Affiliates, together with its and their respective officers, directors, partners, shareholders, employees and agents, and each of its and their
predecessors, successors and assigns (collectively, “Releasees”), from any and all charges, complaints, claims, promises, agreements, controversies, causes of action and demands of any nature whatsoever that the Employee or his/her
executors, administrators, successors or assigns ever had, now have or hereafter can, shall or may have against the Releasees by reason of any matter, cause or thing whatsoever arising prior to the time of signing of this Release Agreement by the

the Americans With Disabilities Act, or pursuant to any other applicable law or legislation governing or related to his/her employment or other engagement with the Corporation. In no event shall this Release apply to the Employee’s right, if
any, to indemnification, under the Employee’s employment agreement or otherwise, that is in effect on the date of this Release and, if applicable, to the Corporation’s obligation to maintain in force reasonable director and officer
insurance in respect of such indemnification obligations. 
 3. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that he/she shall not, directly or
indirectly, seek or further be entitled to any personal recovery in any lawsuit or other claim against the Corporation or any other Releasee based on any event arising out of the matters released in paragraph 2.
