Retail Sales

Since products are not directly sold to customers, company relies on and provide financial incentives to customers
to assist in the distribution and promotion of products. For independent distributors and retailers, these incentives
include volume-based rebates, product placement fees, promotions and displays. For bottlers, these incentives are
referred to as bottler funding and are negotiated annually with each bottler to support a variety of trade and consumer
programs, such as consumer incentives, advertising support, new product support, and vending and cooler
equipment placement. Consumer incentives include coupons, pricing discounts and promotions, and other
promotional offers. Advertising support is directed at advertising programs and supporting bottler media. New product
support includes targeted consumer and retailer incentives and direct marketplace support, such as point-of-purchase
materials, product placement fees, media and advertising. Vending and cooler equipment placement programs
support the acquisition and placement of vending machines and cooler equipment. The nature and type of programs
vary annually.

Retail consolidation and the current economic environment continue to increase the importance of major customers.
In 2009, sales to Wal-Mart (including Sam's) represented approximately 13% of our total net revenue. Top five retail
customers represented approximately 33% of our 2009 North American net revenue, with Wal-Mart (including Sam's)
representing approximately 19%. These percentages include concentrate sales to bottlers which are used in finished
goods sold by them to these retailers.

Distribution Network

Products are brought to market through DSD, customer warehouse and foodservice and vending distribution
networks. The distribution system used depends on customer needs, product characteristics and local trade
practices.

Direct-Store-Delivery

Bottlers and distributors operate DSD systems that deliver snacks and beverages directly to retail stores where the
products are merchandised by our employees or our bottlers. DSD enables to merchandise with maximum visibility
and appeal. DSD is especially well-suited to products that are restocked often and respond to in-store promotion and
merchandising.

Customer Warehouse

Some of products are delivered from our manufacturing plants and warehouses to customer warehouses and retail
stores. These less costly systems generally work best for products that are less fragile and perishable, have lower
turnover, and are less likely to be impulse purchases.

distributors and operators.Foodservice and vending sales force also distributes certain beverages through bottlers.
