Except as specifically permitted in this Section 4, the Parties agree to abide by the NPSG Annual Sourcing Plans and Current Year Sourcing between Supplier Regional Manufacturing Facilities and Purchaser Distribution Centers and Regional Manufacturing Facilities. The NPSG Annual Sourcing Plan is intended to be available by the end of November of each calendar year.

 
  b. Subject to the Purchaser’s right to purchase from: (i) a finished goods co-operative if Purchaser is a member of such co-operative and has purchase obligations, or (ii) any other Company Authorized Supplier described in Section 2.9(b) of the CBA, subject to the terms of any applicable supply agreement between Purchaser and such Company Authorized Supplier (but expressly restricted to the purchase volumes consistent with Purchaser’s transactions with such Company Authorized Supplier prior to the Effective Date), Purchaser will purchase from Supplier Products as provided in the NPSG Annual Sourcing Plan and Current Year Sourcing requirements. Supplier will supply Purchaser with such Products in accordance with, and subject to, the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement. Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to promptly advise Purchaser of any actual or anticipated delay in delivery of Products. See Exhibit B for Demand and Supply Variance Management between Supplier Regional Manufacturing Facilities and Purchaser Distribution Centers and Regional Manufacturing Facilities. c. The Parties understand that intermittent demand- or supply-related sourcing issues routinely occur. No financial remedy of any kind is available between Supplier and Purchaser for any such sourcing issues. The Parties agree to work diligently to minimize demand- or supply-related sourcing issues with specific requirements to mitigate them as part of the Service Level Agreement in Exhibit C. Purchaser is permitted to seek sourcing from alternative sources to the extent provided in Exhibit B. d. The Parties understand that NPSG Annual Sourcing Plan and Current Year Sourcing requirements may change sourcing of Products supplied by Supplier or to Purchaser. The Parties acknowledge and agree that in the event that such NPSG requirements impact Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facility absorption costs, the Parties’ remedies are solely as set forth in Exhibit A. e. If, from time to time, Supplier cannot source product from its NPSG-designated Regional Manufacturing Facilities, then the Parties agree to follow the NPSG secondary sourcing requirements except as permitted by Exhibit B. In all situations, Supplier will promptly notify Purchaser of a change in sourcing to a secondary Regional Manufacturing Facility. Product sourcing from secondary Regional Manufacturing Facilities to Purchaser’s facilities will be managed as follows: i. If Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facility is the secondary source, then Supplier agrees to instruct the secondary Supplier Regional Manufacturing Facility to source the affected Purchaser Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility.

 
  ii. If another RPB Regional Manufacturing Facility is the secondary source, then Purchaser agrees to notify the secondary RPB Regional Manufacturing Facility to source the affected Purchaser Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility. iii. The secondary sourcing Regional Manufacturing Facility will manage the freight to Purchaser Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility. f. Funding for VAF services may be provided by CCNA at its discretion. If and to the extent funded by CCNA sufficient to meet the verifiable costs incurred by Supplier in providing VAF services, Supplier will operate VAFs and handle VAF Products, both of which are designated by CCNA, for supply to Supplier’s Distribution Centers and Regional Manufacturing Facilities and to Purchaser’s Distribution Centers. With the assistance of NPSG, CCNA shall determine the location of VAFs, the VAF SKUs for each VAF, and the VAF SKU flow (i.e., in full pallet or less than full pallet quantities). If Purchaser orders VAF SKUs not in the CCNA-determined flows, then Purchaser shall pay a VAF-specific handling fee set by Supplier. 5. Regional Manufacturing Facilities and Package Versions a. Supplier will supply Products in Versions for each Purchaser Distribution Center and Purchaser Regional Manufacturing Facility as reasonably determined by Supplier. b. Supplier will supply the specified Versions as determined pursuant to Section 5(a) from its primary and secondary Regional Manufacturing Facilities as required by the NPSG Annual Sourcing Plan and the Current Year Sourcing. c. Supplier and Purchaser will meet as specified in their SLA (Exhibit C) as part of the normal management process. 6. Forecasts, Purchaser’s Purchase Obligation, and Allocation of Constrained SKUs a. The Parties will determine if a Rolling Forecast for an existing Product SKU is required. If an existing Product SKU Rolling Forecast is required, then Purchaser will provide the Rolling Forecast as described in the SLA (Exhibit C). b. A Rolling Forecast is required from Purchaser for all Innovation SKUs. The requirements of the Innovation SKU Rolling Forecast are set forth in the SLA (Exhibit C). c. Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid shortages and will provide timely updates on constrained SKUs. In the event of capacity constraints or short supply of Supplier, Supplier will allocate available supply based on the following:

 
  i. For an existing Product SKU: In the event of a shortage of an existing Product SKU (based on Supplier’s total capacity), Supplier will manage a fair and equitable process based on the annual historical total case volume percentage of all bottlers supplied by Supplier for the constrained SKU for the previous calendar year applied to the available supply of the constrained SKU supplied by Supplier, considering only the bottlers requiring the SKU that is in short supply. ii. For an Innovation SKU new to the system: In the event of a shortage of an Innovation SKU new to the system, the available supply would be allocated by Supplier on a pro rata basis among the bottlers ordering such Innovation SKU from Supplier (based upon the forecasts of each bottler for such Innovation SKU). iii. For an Innovation SKU new to Purchaser but not new to the system, where the SKU is replacing an existing SKU (a “Replacement Innovation SKU”): In the event of shortage of a Replacement Innovation SKU, the available supply would be allocated by Supplier on a pro rata basis among the bottlers ordering the Replacement Innovation SKU from Supplier (based on (x) Purchaser’s prior year sales of the SKU being replaced, (y) the prior year sales of the SKU being replaced for any other bottlers that are ordering the Replacement SKU for the first time, and (z) the prior year sales of the Replacement Innovation SKU and of the SKU being replaced for the bottlers that are not ordering the Replacement Innovation SKU for the first time). iv. For an Innovation SKU new to Purchaser but not new to the system, where the SKU is not replacing an existing SKU (a “Non-Replacement Innovation SKU”): In the event of shortage of a Non-Replacement Innovation SKU, the available supply would be allocated by Supplier on a pro rata basis among the bottlers ordering the Non-Replacement Innovation SKU from Supplier (based on (x) Purchaser’s forecast for the Non-Replacement SKU, (y) the forecast for the Non-Replacement Innovation SKU for any other bottlers that are ordering the Non-Replacement SKU for the first time, and (z) the prior year sales of the Non-Replacement Innovation SKU for the bottlers that are not ordering the Non- Replacement Innovation SKU for the first time). d. Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, direct such constrained Products in disproportionate amounts to any of its Distribution Centers or Regional Manufacturing Facilities that are sourced by Supplier. e. Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Purchaser with written notice (by email to Purchaser’s defined representative) of the proposed launch of an Innovation SKU as soon as practicable prior to the proposed launch date. i. Purchaser shall: (A) within ninety (90) days of the Innovation SKU launch date; or (B) within fifteen (15) days following its receipt of such notice, whichever is later, provide to Supplier a written Innovation SKU forecast as determined in the SLA between Parties but at least for the first thirteen (13) weeks (unless a different period of time is mutually agreed by the Parties) after launch of such Innovation SKU (“Innovation SKU Forecast”).

 
  Purchaser may revise any Innovation SKU Forecast at any time prior to sixty (60) days before the launch date. ii. The Innovation SKU Forecast will bind Purchaser to reimburse Supplier for all raw materials purchased by Supplier to meet this Innovation SKU Forecast. Additionally, Purchaser may revise any part of the last nine (9) weeks of the Innovation SKU Forecast (but not the first four (4) weeks of the Innovation SKU Forecast, as the first four (4) weeks of such forecast is a firm order) between sixty (60) days and thirty (30) days prior to the launch date. Prior to any Supplier production run of the Innovation SKU, Purchaser may request changes in timing of receiving the first four (4) week order and Supplier will accommodate Purchaser's request if commercially reasonable, but Supplier is not obligated to do so. Supplier will communicate the potential liability (i.e., required purchases by Purchaser) of Innovation SKU finished goods to Purchaser at the end of the first four (4) weeks. iii. Once the Innovation SKU is launched, Purchaser shall update all final weeks of the Innovation SKU forecast (but not the first four (4) weeks of each updated Innovation SKU Forecast). The first four (4) weeks of the Innovation SKU Forecast (as modified by any permitted revisions, as permitted by this paragraph) will be a firm purchase obligation on behalf of Purchaser, and Purchaser must purchase all Product if Supplier has completed the production of the Innovation SKU for the four (4) week Innovation SKU Forecast. Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Purchaser with additional Innovation SKU volume during the first thirteen (13) weeks if product sales are greater than the forecast. iv. For orders of Innovation SKUs once launched, the SLA between Supplier and Purchaser will determine the order lead time due to differences in production cycles. Once Innovation SKU orders are placed within the SLA-agreed order lead time, these Innovation SKU orders shall be firm purchase orders, and Purchaser shall purchase and pay in full for the Innovation SKUs contained in such purchase orders. Supplier will accommodate Purchaser’s order that does not meet the order lead time if commercially reasonable, but Supplier is not obligated to do so. v. After the Innovation SKU has been distributed for thirteen (13) weeks, Purchaser will comply with the requirements of Section 6(a) above for any Rolling Forecasts required, which will provide subsequent Rolling Forecasts that include the Innovation SKU. 7. Local Innovation and Product Requests by Purchaser a. Primary packaging local innovation requests will go through Company’s commercialization process as updated from time to time by Company in its sole discretion.

 
  b. If a local innovation request involves Secondary and Tertiary Packaging changes and the request calls for graphics changes, the local innovation execution process for the graphics changes will be guided by the Company’s commercialization processes as described above. In all other respects, the approval process for a local innovation request relating to Secondary or Tertiary Packaging will be as set forth below: i. Within three business days of a written request from Purchaser, Supplier will inform Purchaser whether Supplier has the capability to provide the requested local innovation; provided, however, that this response will not constitute a commitment by Supplier to proceed with the local innovation request. ii. If Supplier indicates that it does have the capability and capacity to supply the requested local innovation, then within ten (10) business days of a written request from Purchaser, Supplier will inform Purchaser of the costs of such requested local innovation within an expected range of +/- 40% accuracy. iii. Within twenty (20) business days of a written request from Purchaser, Supplier will inform Purchaser in writing of the actual costs, delivery dates and projected production quantities for the requested local innovation. If within twenty (20) business days following such written notice, Purchaser accepts such additional costs and delivery dates set forth in the notice and agrees to purchase all or a portion of such quantities set forth in such notice, Supplier shall be obligated to produce and deliver such quantities at the price and dates set forth in the notice. c. If Purchaser desires to purchase a SKU for its Territory that is not included in the Annual Sourcing Plan or Current Year Sourcing determined by NPSG for Purchaser’s Distribution Centers or Regional Manufacturing Facilities, Supplier shall not be required to provide such SKU. However, NPSG may update the Annual Sourcing Plan or Current Year Sourcing to determine the appropriate RPB and Regional Manufacturing Facility to source such SKU to Purchaser. 8. Price Purchaser will purchase, and Supplier will sell, the Products at the applicable price determined in accordance with the pricing methodology set forth in Exhibit A determined by CCNA, except as specifically provided in Section 7(b)(iii) above. 9. Payment Terms and Invoicing a. Payment for Products is due in full within twenty-one (21) days from date of invoice. b. Supplier shall submit invoices for Products in accordance with Exhibit A hereto, and such invoices shall be submitted by Supplier to Purchaser within forty-five (45) days of shipment.

 
  c. Invoices will identify any applicable sales, use, or excise taxes. d. Purchaser will reimburse Supplier for all sales, use or excise taxes (if any), but Purchaser will not be responsible for remittance of such taxes to applicable tax authorities. Supplier will remit such taxes to the applicable tax authorities. In the event Supplier fails to timely remit such taxes to the applicable tax authorities and Purchaser receives an audit assessment for such taxes, Supplier will reimburse Purchaser for such tax assessment including penalties and interest. To the extent applicable, Supplier shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in its efforts to obtain or maintain any reseller tax exemption certificates 10. Service Level Agreement (SLA) Supplier and Purchaser agree to comply with the terms of the Service Level Agreement determined by the Parties as set forth in Exhibit C. The Parties agree that Exhibit C may contain more specific provisions, metrics and standards than are stated elsewhere in this Agreement. However, no provisions of the Service Level Agreement may act to limit, reduce or render unenforceable any of the terms of this Agreement and any such provisions of the SLA shall have no force and effect. 11. Supplier Customer Service Metrics a. Supplier agrees to implement a customer service metric or metrics to assess service performance to Purchaser Distribution Centers and Regional Manufacturing Facilities. Supplier will define the metric(s) with targets developed with Purchaser as part of the SLA. b. Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) meet the customer service metric performance targets as set forth in the SLA and (b) measure, track, and report to Purchaser the customer service metric by time period for each Purchaser Distribution Center and Regional Manufacturing Facility sourced by Supplier as set forth in the SLA. 12. Purchaser Performance Metrics a. If the Parties agree to a Rolling Forecast as part of Section 6(a), then Forecast Accuracy will be measured. i. “Forecast Accuracy” means the accuracy of the “Lag 2 Week” included in Purchaser’s Rolling Forecast for each Purchaser Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility, which is the forecasted volume to be purchased from Supplier for the second week of each such Rolling Forecast, and is measured as 1 minus the Mean Absolute Percent Error (MAPE) over the 1 week period measured. “MAPE” is defined as the sum across all SKUs of the absolute value of the difference between the SKU-level Lag-2 Week of the Rolling Forecast provided to Supplier and the actual SKU-level trade sales of Product sold by Purchaser in the Territory for such Lag-2 Week, divided by the actual SKU-level trade sales of

 
  Product sold by Purchaser in the Territory for such Lag-2 Week. Purchaser will not be responsible for forecast errors to the extent attributable to Product not delivered by Supplier (i.e., the calculation will be adjusted to take into account Product not delivered by Supplier to a particular Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility for the Lag-2 Week period in question). ii. Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) meet the “Forecast Accuracy Performance Target” set forth in the Service Level Agreement and (b) track, measure, and report to Supplier Forecast Accuracy weekly by Lag 2 Week. iii. NPSG maintains the listing of Limited Source SKUs. Because of sourcing difficulties related to Limited Source SKUs, forecasts for all Limited Source Core SKUs are considered firm purchase orders for the “Lag 2 Week.” b. Purchaser will measure order lead time adherence as defined by the Parties in the SLA ensuring that the requirements in Subsection 12(a) of this Agreement are met. 13. Product Quality a. Products must be delivered to Purchaser in saleable condition, meeting all product and package quality standards established by Company. b. Supplier will deliver all Products to Purchaser’s Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility with at least 45 days of shelf life remaining, except that, in the case of SKUs requiring more than 45 days of shelf life remaining because of customer requirements (e.g., Club Stores, ARTM, etc.), Supplier will deliver such SKUs to Purchaser’s Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility with at least 12 days more than the customer-specific requirements. c. Purchaser may accept or reject any Product with less than 45 days of available shelf life remaining, in Purchaser’s sole discretion, after discussion with Supplier. d. Products must have no material defects in material or workmanship when delivered to Purchaser’s Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility. e. Supplier will not deliver to Purchaser’s Distribution Center(s) or Regional Manufacturing Facility any Products that Supplier knows to be subject to recall. f. Product SKUs must be standing and undamaged when delivered by Supplier to Purchaser’s Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility.

 
  g. Product loads must be braced and dunnaged or wrapped when delivered to Purchaser’s Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility. h. Delivery trailers containing Products must be sealed, with Product documentation, and must not have off odors, leaks, or contaminants. 14. Product Orders and Risk of Loss a. Ordering will be as set forth in the SLA (Exhibit C), whether Purchaser places orders for Products via the Coke One North America (CONA) system or places orders for Products via manual or other type of order generation. Supplier will implement order lead time requirements and define order lead time targets in the SLA. Order lead time will not exceed fourteen (14) calendar days from Purchaser order submittal to Purchaser order delivery, except as described in Section 14(c) below. b. For those Purchasers that place orders manually or by any other non-CONA system methodology, Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Supplier’s order management personnel to comply with an efficient, level ordering plan for the purchase of Products by Purchaser. c. NPSG maintains a listing of Limited Source SKUs. Because of sourcing difficulties related to Limited Source SKUs, orders for all Limited Source Core SKUs are considered firm purchase orders within seven (7) calendar days of their requested delivery to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase and pay in full for the Limited Source Core SKUs contained in such purchase orders. For orders of Limited Source Non-Core SKUs, the SLA between Supplier and Purchaser will determine the order lead time due to differences in production cycles. Once Limited Source Non-Core SKU orders are placed within the SLA-agreed order lead time, these Limited Source Non-Core SKU orders shall be firm purchase orders, and Purchaser shall purchase and pay in full for the Limited Source Non-Core SKUs contained in such purchase orders. d. Except as provided in the SLA (Exhibit C), (i) all orders for Product from Supplier must be in full truck load quantities only and (ii) the minimum order quantity per SKU will be a full pallet. e. Supplier will ship Product orders from the Regional Manufacturing Facility designated by the NPSG to Purchaser’s Distribution Centers or Regional Manufacturing Facilities, except as provided in Subsection 14(f). Title and risk of loss will pass to Purchaser upon initial receipt of the Products at Purchaser’s Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility. f. At Supplier’s sole discretion, Purchaser may be permitted to pick up Product orders at Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facility designated by the NPSG. Title and risk of loss will pass to Purchaser upon completion of the loading of such Products on Purchaser’s vehicles or common carriers at Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facility. g. Additional provisions regarding placement and execution of orders are set forth in the SLA (Exhibit C).

 
  i. Neither Purchaser nor Supplier will make any changes in the Product order fulfillment process that could have an operational or financial impact on the other Party without the prior review and approval of the other Party (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which will be documented in the SLA). 15. Escalation a. The Parties acknowledge and agree that they anticipate that demand and supply issues will occur during the Term, and that, pursuant to Section 4 above, financial remedies are not available for such variances. However if demand- or supply-related issues (a) are substantial or excessive in the reasonable opinion of Purchaser because of their impact to service and costs; and (b) these issues have not been mitigated to Purchaser’s reasonable requirements identified in the SLA, then the Parties shall attempt to resolve any disputes amicably, with ultimate referral of the issues to their senior Supply Chain and Financial officers. If these officers are unable to resolve the dispute, Purchaser may, at its option, refer the matter to NPSG staff for possible resolution through potential modifications to the Annual Sourcing Plan or Current Year Sourcing. b. While financial remedies for demand or supply-related sourcing issues are not prescribed in this Agreement, the Parties acknowledge that future circumstances may require that financial remedies be considered. The Parties may, at their option, refer such matters to CCNA and CCNA will work collaboratively with all RPBs to consider appropriate remedies. No such remedies would be effective unless first agreed upon in writing by the Parties. c. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement has been prepared based on a form determined by the Company, in order to support the goals of the Coca-Cola bottling system in the United States, including: (i) the sustainable effectiveness and efficiency of such system and its members; (ii) increasing the competitiveness of such system and its members; and (iii) the profitable growth of such system and its members. The Parties, along with Company, shall meet periodically in order to discuss proposed amendments to this Agreement to support the goals stated above. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith with one another and with Company with respect to such proposed amendments, which amendments will require mutual written agreement to be effective. It is provided, however, that: (i) no amendment shall conflict with the reserved rights of Supplier set forth in Attachment 1-A of the NPSG Governance Agreement; and (ii) no amendment shall be effective with respect to a Party if it conflicts with the Party’s existing contractual obligations, whether with Company or otherwise. It is further provided that the Parties shall not modify or amend this Agreement (except for amendments to Exhibit C and for amendments to the notice addresses provided in section 32) without the express written consent of Company. d. The Parties acknowledge and agree that for the purposes of section 15(c) above, and of Exhibit A to this Agreement, Company is an intended third party beneficiary and shall have rights to enforce same as if it were a party to this Agreement. 16. Warranties

 
  a. Each Party represents and warrants the following: (i) the Party’s execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement: (A) have been authorized by all necessary company action, (B) do not violate the terms of any law, regulation, or court order to which such Party is subject or the terms of any material agreement to which the Party or any of its assets may be subject and (C) are not subject to the consent or approval of any third party; (ii) this Agreement is the valid and binding obligation of the representing Party, enforceable against such Party in accordance with its terms; and (iii) such Party is not subject to any pending or threatened litigation or governmental action which could interfere with such Party’s performance of its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect. b. In rendering its obligations under this Agreement, without limiting other applicable performance warranties, Supplier represents and warrants to Purchaser as follows: (i) Supplier is in good standing in the state of its incorporation or formation and is qualified to do business in each of the other states in which it conducts business; and (ii) Supplier shall secure or has secured all permits, licenses, regulatory approvals and registrations required to deliver and sell the Products, including registration with the appropriate taxing authorities for remittance of taxes. c.

Product Warranty a. Based on and subject to the warranties provided to Supplier by Company in Supplier’s RMA, Supplier warrants to Purchaser that (i) the Products sold to Purchaser under this Agreement comply at the time of shipment to Purchaser in all respects with the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, as amended (the “Act”), and all federal, state and local laws, rules, regulations and guidelines applicable in the Territory, and (ii) all Products shipped to Purchaser under this Agreement, and all packaging and other materials which come in contact with such Products, will not at the time of shipment to Purchaser be adulterated, contaminated, or misbranded within the meaning of the Act or any other federal, state or local law, rule or regulation applicable in Purchaser’s Territory. Supplier warrants to Purchaser that the Products sold to Purchaser under this Agreement will be handled, stored and transported properly by Supplier, up to the time of delivery to Purchaser. b. Supplier makes no covenant, representation or warranty concerning the Products of any kind whatsoever, express or implied, except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. THE EXPRESS WARRANTIES SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT ARE IN LIEU OF ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, AND INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY AND FITNESS, AND CONSTITUTE THE ONLY WARRANTIES OF SUPPLIER WITH RESPECT TO SUPPLIER’S PRODUCTS. 18. Returns of Rejected Products

 
  a. Product Returns Classification. Supplier or Purchaser may discover or become aware of the existence of Product related problems, quality or other technical problems relating to Products at the time of receipt by Purchaser, after acceptance by Purchaser, or after delivery by Purchaser to customers. If such problems or quality issues are discovered, and such quality issues were due to quality or technical defects prior to delivery to Purchaser’s Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility, then the affected Products will be returned to Supplier following the procedures in this Section based on the timing or circumstances of the discovery of quality or technical problems. b. Product Return - At Receipt. If Purchaser discovers any of the following issues associated with Products within 24 hours following delivery of such Products to the Purchaser’s Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility (or of pickup by Purchaser at a Supplier Regional Manufacturing Facility, if applicable): i. any Product that has either not been ordered and scheduled for delivery on a particular date, or ii. any Product that does not match the shipping documents presented at delivery, or iii. any defect or deficiency in such Product (e.g., loose caps or leaking seams), or iv. any non-conformance of such Product with any applicable warranties or quality standards, then Purchaser will, within 24 hours following delivery of such Products to Purchaser’s Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility (or of pickup by Purchaser at a Supplier Regional Manufacturing Facility, if applicable), notify Supplier of such defect, deficiency or non-conformance. Purchaser will be entitled to credit equal to the price paid by Purchaser for the defective, deficient or non-conforming Product (or cancellation of any unpaid charges associated with the defective, deficient or non-conforming Product), plus freight costs, if any, incurred by Purchaser in connection with the delivery and return of such defective, deficient or non-conforming product. Any such credits will be applied within twenty-one (21) days against amounts otherwise due from Purchaser and will be reflected in reasonable detail on appropriate invoices sent to Purchaser. All credit requests must be submitted by Purchaser to Supplier within thirty (30) days of shipment acceptance for credit requests to be considered. c. Product Return - Quality Issues Post-Acceptance. If after acceptance of any Product and more than 24 hours following delivery to Purchaser’s Distribution Center or Regional Manufacturing Facility (or of pickup by Purchaser at a Supplier Regional Manufacturing Facility, if applicable), Purchaser discovers:

 
  i. any defect or deficiency in such Products caused by Supplier, or ii. any non-conformance of such Products with any applicable warranties or quality standards that existed as of the time of delivery by Supplier, then Purchaser will notify Supplier within 24 hours of Purchaser’s identification of such defect, deficiency or non-conformance. If the Product issue was discovered while in Purchaser’s possession, Purchaser will be entitled to a credit equal to price paid by Purchaser for the defective, deficient or non-conforming Product (or cancellation of any unpaid charges associated with the defective, deficient or non-conforming Product) as identified by Purchaser, plus freight costs, if any, incurred by Purchaser in connection with the delivery and return of such defective, deficient or non-conforming product. If the Product issue was discovered while in possession of Purchaser’s customer or another third party, Purchaser will be entitled to reimbursement of any reasonable expenses it incurred in connection with removing, returning and/or replacing such defective, deficient or non-conforming Product. Any such credits awarded hereunder will be applied against amounts otherwise due from Purchaser and will be reflected in reasonable detail on appropriate invoices sent to Purchaser. 19.

  22. Compliance with Laws a. Supplier will, and will cause its affiliates and subcontractors to, comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations applicable to each of them relating to: (i) the production, packaging, labeling, transport and delivery to Purchaser of the Products; and (ii) the performance of Supplier’s obligations set forth herein. b. Purchaser will comply with all applicable federal, state and local laws and regulations applicable to it and relating to: (i) the storage, marketing, promotion, distribution and sale of the Products; and (ii) and the performance of Purchaser’s obligations set forth herein. 23. Indemnity Supplier will indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Purchaser against any and all damages, loss, costs, or other liability (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of a third party claim that (i) results from Supplier’s breach of this Agreement or any representation or warranty made by Supplier in this Agreement, or any negligent act or omission of Supplier, or (ii) alleges damage for loss to property, death, illness or injuries, resulting from the use or consumption of any Products, except as set forth below. Supplier will assume responsibility and expense of investigation, litigation, judgment and/or settlement of any such claim on the condition that Supplier is notified promptly (in no event later than thirty (30) days after the first receipt of written notice thereof by Purchaser) in writing of any such claim and is permitted to deal therewith at its own discretion and through its own representatives; except that Purchaser’s failure to provide notice of a claim will not affect Supplier’s obligation to indemnify the claim under this Section 23 unless such failure prejudices the defense of such claim. The Parties will cooperate reasonably in the investigation and defense of any such claim, and Supplier will not settle any such claim that imposes on Purchaser a non-monetary obligation or a liability that is not indemnified without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Supplier will have no obligation to indemnify Purchaser for any claim to the extent that such claim arises out of the negligence or recklessness of Purchaser. This Section 23 sets forth the sole and exclusive remedy for Purchaser against Supplier with respect to third party claims relating to the Products purchased by Purchaser from Supplier under this Agreement. SUPPLIER WILL NOT BE LIABLE TO PURCHASER WHETHER IN CONTRACT OR IN TORT OR ON ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, ANY LOST REVENUES, PROFITS OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, OR FOR ANY OTHER LOSS OR COST OF A SIMILAR TYPE (COLLECTIVELY, “CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES”) OF PURCHASER OR ANY CUSTOMER OF PURCHASER OR OF ANY PERSON WHO MAY HAVE BECOME INJURED BY SUPPLIER’S PRODUCTS PURCHASED FROM PURCHASER (EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THAT AN INDEMNIFIED THIRD PARTY CLAIM INCLUDES CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES). 24. Termination This Agreement will terminate automatically upon termination of either Supplier’s RMA or Purchaser’s CBA. 25. Confidentiality

 
  The terms and conditions of this Agreement are strictly confidential.

Supplier agrees that the terms and conditions of this Agreement are subject to the confidentiality requirements set forth in Supplier’s RMA. 26. Modification/Waivers No modification, waiver or amendment to this Agreement will be binding upon either Party unless first agreed to in writing by both Parties. The Parties shall not modify or amend this Agreement (except for amendments to Exhibit C and for amendments to the notice addresses provided in section 32) without the express written consent of Company. A waiver by either Party of any default or breach by the other Party will not be considered as a waiver of any subsequent default or breach of the same or other provisions of this Agreement. 27. Assignment Except in connection with any permitted assignment by Purchaser of its rights under the Comprehensive Beverage Agreement, Purchaser may not assign this Agreement or any of the rights hereunder or delegate any of its obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of Supplier, and any such attempted assignment will be void. 28. Relationship of Parties The Parties are acting under this Agreement as independent contractors. Nothing in this Agreement will create or be construed as creating a partnership, joint venture or agency relationship between the Parties, and no Party will have the authority to bind the other in any respect. 29. Authority Each Party represents and warrants that it has the full right and authority necessary to enter into this Agreement. Each Party further represents and warrants that all necessary approvals for this Agreement have been obtained, and the person whose signature appears below has the power and authority necessary to execute this Agreement on behalf of the Party indicated. 30. Force Majeure Neither Party will be liable to the other for any delay or failure to perform fully where such delay or failure is caused by terrorism, acts of public enemy, acts of a sovereign nation or any state or political subdivision, fires, floods or explosions, where such cause is beyond the reasonable control of the affected Party and renders performance commercially impracticable as defined under the Uniform Commercial Code (a “Force Majeure Event”). 31. Business Continuity

 
  Supplier will develop and maintain a commercially reasonable business continuity plan. 32. Notices All notices under this Agreement or the Service Level Agreement by either Party to the other Party must be in writing, delivered by electronic mail and confirmed by overnight delivery, certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, and will be deemed to have been duly given when received or when deposited in either the United States mail, postage prepaid, or with the applicable overnight carrier, addressed as follows: If to Purchaser: The then current address of Purchaser as contained in Supplier’s contractual files With a copy to: Purchaser’s Chief Financial Officer or other designated representative, at the above address If to Supplier: [Add Supplier’s address Add Supplier’s address Direct: (xxx) xxx-xxxx Fax: (xxx) xxx-xxxx Attention: Add Name & Title With a copy to: Add Name & Title] 33.

A-1 EXHIBIT A Transfer Price Methodology from Supplier to Purchaser 1. The Transfer Price for sales of Authorized Covered Beverages by Supplier to Purchaser is calculated in accordance with the following formula established by the Company (by its Coca-Cola North America division (“CCNA”)) and required under Supplier’s RMA: Transfer Price = [***] 2. CCNA will unilaterally determine [***] as provided in Supplier’s RMA, if and to the extent applicable. CCNA Exchange will maintain records of [***] for each of Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facilities. [***] will be added to [***] for all Authorized Covered Beverages sold by Supplier to Purchaser. 3. Supplier intends to provide initial estimates of [***] by Supplier Regional Manufacturing Facility and by freight lane annually by November 1 for each following calendar year. As the Supplier’s internal cost standard calculations may not be finalized until early in the calendar year, Supplier may update Transfer Prices on or by May 1 which changes will apply for the remainder of the calendar year, subject to other Transfer Price changes that may occur in accordance with Paragraph 7 below. Once each calendar year begins, Supplier may use [***] for invoicing purposes. 4. For each calendar year, Supplier and Purchaser will reconcile variances between the estimated Transfer Price and the actual Transfer Price in the manner described in this Paragraph 4. As used in this Exhibit, “Transfer Price Variances” mean variances between: (i) the estimated Transfer Price established on January 1 of the applicable calendar year (or updated on May 1 or September 1 of such year, if applicable), and (ii) the actual Transfer Price, calculated as the sum of [***] and [***]. Supplier will provide Purchaser with an interim report on Transfer Price Variances on a quarterly basis, for informational purposes only and a reconciliation will occur within 120 days following calendar year end. If the actual Transfer price is greater than, or less than, the estimated Transfer Price established on January 1 or updated on May 1 or September 1, if applicable, then Supplier and Purchaser will settle the differences between themselves within 120 days following year end. 5. NPSG may direct that sourcing of certain SKUs from Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facilities shift to Purchaser’s Regional Manufacturing Facilities as part of its Annual Sourcing or Current Year Sourcing processes. The volume of physical cases of Authorized Covered Beverages that shift to Purchaser’s Regional Manufacturing Facilities are referred to below as “Shifted Physical Cases. a. Separately, Supplier and Purchaser may agree that the Purchaser will reimburse the Supplier up to the total costs of lost absorption (i.e., the increase in costs per case due to lower volume handled by a Production Facility) on Shifted Physical Cases resulting from NPSG-designated sourcing changes, and reimbursement will be based on the last fully completed twelve calendar months of volume at the time of sourcing change. Supplier and Purchaser will solely determine between themselves whether reimbursement is made, and will directly manage this process without CCNA’s involvement. If Supplier and Purchaser agree that reimbursements are made for lost absorption, then the reimbursement up to the total costs of lost absorption on Shifted Physical Cases will be a one-time adjustment.

 
  A-2 b. Any payments to be made by Purchaser as described above for lost absorption (if any, to the extent mutually agreed by Purchaser and Supplier) will be made at the same time as any required payment for Transfer Price Variances is made within 120 days after calendar year end. 6. In addition to changes in the Transfer Price as described in Paragraph 3 above, the estimated Transfer Price may be adjusted by Supplier (a “September Adjustment”) during the year as of September 1 (“September Adjustment Date”) to account for changes in Supplier’s [***], as provided in subparagraphs a and b of this Paragraph 6: a. If Supplier’s actual year to date costs per physical case for any of the components shown in the table below as compared to the estimated costs per physical case for such component as included in the estimated Transfer Price established on January 1 of the applicable calendar year (or updated May 1 of such year, if applicable), change by more than the percentage indicated in the table below as of a September Adjustment Date, then a September Adjustment will be made to [***]: Component September 1 [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] [***] b. No September Adjustment will be made for any pricing components other than [***]. The Parties agree to consider adjusting the cost ranges as part of the escalation process of Section 15 of this Agreement. 7. [***] will be taken into account by Supplier in establishing the Transfer Price annually, subject to annual reconciliation as part of the Transfer Price Variance process provided for in Paragraph 4 above. 8. Purchaser will be entitled to a freight credit from Supplier for Authorized Covered Beverages picked up by Purchaser at the Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facility only if Supplier has agreed to allow for Purchaser pick up of Products as specified in Section 14(f) of this Agreement. The amount of the freight credit will be based on Supplier’s actual freight cost. 9. Purchaser will pay Supplier a deposit equal to Supplier’s standard rate, as stated in the Service Level Agreement (Exhibit C), for shells, pallets, CO2 containers, etc., which will be refunded to Purchaser when such items are timely returned in useable condition as set forth in Section 20 of this Agreement. 10. To the extent funded by NPSG, CCNA Exchange will engage a certified public accounting firm (“Firm”) to annually review and perform tests of: a. [***] calculated and provided by Supplier to ensure it is consistent with the [***] methodology approved by NPSG;

NPSG, the CCNA Exchange and the RPBs will provide the Firm with the books, records and access that is reasonably required to conduct the review and testing described above. To the extent permitted by law, CCNA Exchange will share the Firm’s report with each member of the NPSG.

 
B-1 EXHIBIT B Demand and Supply Variance Management between Supplier and Purchaser Distribution Centers & Regional Manufacturing Facilities a. When used in this Exhibit B, “Variance(s)” shall mean variances from the Annual Sourcing Plan or Current Year Sourcing determined by NPSG. b. Any Variances within a calendar year (whether or not required by NPSG sourcing requirements) that solely impact Supplier and Purchaser shall be managed directly between Supplier and Purchaser without CCNA’s involvement as per Section 4 of this Agreement. No financial remedy of any kind is available between Supplier and Purchaser for any such Variances. c. In the case of Authorized Covered Beverages, Purchaser may purchase or acquire one or more SKUs from alternate Regional Manufacturing Facilities based on the NPSG Annual Sourcing or Current Year Sourcing matrix (i.e., primary and secondary sources including, if applicable, from any such authorized production facilities operated by Purchaser), or from a finished goods co-operative if Purchaser is a member of such co-operative and has purchase obligations, if and to the extent that (i) Supplier has notified Purchaser that Supplier cannot or will not provide such SKU (such notice to be provided by telephone call and email); (ii) Purchaser has reasonably determined that delivery by Supplier of any such SKU (including any SKU requested by Purchaser’s customers) to the applicable Distribution Center will either (A) be 48 hours or more overdue, or (B) result in a Distribution Center out-of-stock situation; or (iii) Supplier’s delivery of any Products is delayed or impaired as a result of a Force Majeure Event. No financial remedy of any kind is available between Supplier and Purchaser for any such Variances. d. Purchaser will have the right to source from alternate Regional Manufacturing Facilities based on the NPSG Annual Sourcing Plan or Current Year Sourcing matrix (i.e., primary and secondary sources including, if applicable, any such authorized production facilities operated by Purchaser) or from a finished goods co-operative if Purchaser is a member of such a co-operative and has purchase obligations, if and to the extent the order is for: (i) slow moving products (less than full pallet quantities), (ii) customer special requests, and (iii) “Hot Shot” Orders (i.e., time-sensitive orders that require faster delivery times than are required in the normal order process) that Supplier cannot fulfill or elects not to fulfill, in each case, so long as Purchaser has first provided Supplier with the opportunity to supply the requested Products and Supplier has declined to provide them. Supplier will respond in a reasonably prompt manner to any such requests from Purchaser. No financial remedy of any kind is available between Supplier and Purchaser for any such Variances.

See Exhibit B for Demand and Supply Variance Management between Supplier Regional Manufacturing Facilities and Purchaser Distribution Centers.

 
5 c. d. The Parties understand that intermittent demand- or supply-related sourcing issues routinely occur. No financial remedy of any kind is available between Supplier and Purchaser for any such sourcing issues. The Parties agree to work diligently to minimize demand- or supply-related sourcing issues with specific requirements to mitigate them as part of the Service Level Agreement in Exhibit C. Purchaser is permitted to seek sourcing from alternative sources to the extent provided in Exhibit B. If, from time to time, Supplier cannot source Products from its NPSG-designated Regional Manufacturing Facility, then the Parties agree to follow the NPSG secondary sourcing requirements except as permitted by Exhibit B. In all situations, Supplier will promptly notify Purchaser of a change in sourcing to a secondary Regional Manufacturing Facility. Product sourcing from secondary Regional Manufacturing Facilities to Purchaser’s facilities will be managed as follows: i. If Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facility is the secondary source, then Supplier agrees to instruct the secondary Supplier Regional Manufacturing Facility to source the affected Purchaser Distribution Center. ii. If another RPB Regional Manufacturing Facility is the secondary source, then Purchaser agrees to notify the secondary RPB Regional Manufacturing Facility to source the affected Purchaser Distribution Center after notification from Supplier. iii. The secondary sourcing Regional Manufacturing Facility will manage the freight to the Purchaser Distribution Center. f. Funding for VAF services may be provided by CCNA at its discretion. If and to the extent funded by CCNA sufficient to meet the verifiable costs incurred by Supplier in providing VAF services, Supplier will operate VAFs and handle VAF Products, both of which are designated by CCNA, for supply to Supplier’s Distribution Centers and Regional Manufacturing Facilities and to Purchaser’s Distribution Centers. With the assistance of NPSG, CCNA shall determine the location of VAFs, the VAF SKUs for each VAF, and the VAF SKU flow (i.e., in full pallet or less than full pallet quantities). If Purchaser orders VAF SKUs not in the CCNA-determined flows, then Purchaser shall pay a VAF-specific handling fee set by Supplier. 5. Regional Manufacturing Facilities and Package Versions a. Supplier will supply Products in Versions for each Purchaser Distribution Center as reasonably determined by Supplier. b. Supplier will supply the specified Versions as determined pursuant to Section 5(a) from its primary and secondary Regional Manufacturing Facilities as required by the NPSG Annual Sourcing Plan and the Current Year Sourcing. c. Supplier and Purchaser will meet as specified in their SLA (Exhibit C) as part of the normal management process. 6. Forecasts, Purchaser’s Purchase Obligation, and Allocation of Constrained SKUs a. The Parties will determine if a Rolling Forecast for an existing Product SKU is required. If an existing Product SKU Rolling Forecast is required, then Purchaser will provide the Rolling Forecast as described in the SLA (Exhibit C). b. A Rolling Forecast is required from Purchaser for all Innovation SKUs. The requirements of the Innovation SKU Rolling Forecast are set forth in the SLA (Exhibit C).

 
6 c. Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to avoid shortages and will provide timely updates on constrained SKUs. In the event of capacity constraints or short supply of Supplier, Supplier will allocate available supply based on the following: i. For an existing Product SKU: In the event of a shortage of an existing Product SKU (based on Supplier’s total capacity), Supplier will manage a fair and equitable process based on the annual historical total case volume percentage of all bottlers supplied by Supplier for the constrained SKU for the previous calendar year applied to the available supply of the constrained SKU supplied by Supplier, considering only the bottlers requiring the SKU that is in short supply. ii. For an Innovation SKU new to the system: In the event of a shortage of an Innovation SKU new to the system, the available supply would be allocated by Supplier on a pro rata basis among the bottlers ordering such Innovation SKU from Supplier (based upon the forecasts of each bottler for such Innovation SKU). iii. For an Innovation SKU new to Purchaser but not new to the system, where the SKU is replacing an existing SKU (a “Replacement Innovation SKU”): In the event of shortage of a Replacement Innovation SKU, the available supply would be allocated by Supplier on a pro rata basis among the bottlers ordering the Replacement Innovation SKU from Supplier (based on (x) Purchaser’s prior year sales of the SKU being replaced, (y) the prior year sales of the SKU being replaced for any other bottlers that are ordering the Replacement SKU for the first time, and (z) the prior year sales of the Replacement Innovation SKU and of the SKU being replaced for the bottlers that are not ordering the Replacement Innovation SKU for the first time). iv. For an Innovation SKU new to Purchaser but not new to the system, where the SKU is not replacing an existing SKU (a “Non-Replacement Innovation SKU”): In the event of shortage of a Non-Replacement Innovation SKU, the available supply would be allocated by Supplier on a pro rata basis among the bottlers ordering the Non-Replacement Innovation SKU from Supplier (based on (x) Purchaser’s forecast for the Non-Replacement SKU, (y) the forecast for the Non-Replacement Innovation SKU for any other bottlers that are ordering the Non-Replacement SKU for the first time, and (z) the prior year sales of the Non-Replacement Innovation SKU for the bottlers that are not ordering the Non-Replacement Innovation SKU for the first time). d. Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, direct such constrained Products in disproportionate amounts to any of its Distribution Centers that are sourced by Supplier. e. Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Purchaser with written notice (by email to Purchaser’s defined representative) of the proposed launch of an Innovation SKU as soon as practicable prior to the proposed launch date.

 
7 i. Purchaser shall: (A) within ninety (90) days of the Innovation SKU launch date; or (B) within fifteen (15) days following its receipt of such notice, whichever is later, provide to Supplier a written Innovation SKU forecast as determined in the SLA between Parties but at least for the first thirteen (13) weeks (unless a different period of time is mutually agreed by the Parties) after launch of such Innovation SKU (“Innovation SKU Forecast”). Purchaser may revise any Innovation SKU Forecast at any time prior to sixty (60) days before the launch date. ii. The Innovation SKU Forecast will bind Purchaser to reimburse Supplier for all raw materials purchased by Supplier to meet this Innovation SKU Forecast. Additionally, Purchaser may revise any part of the last nine (9) weeks of the Innovation SKU Forecast (but not the first four (4) weeks of the Innovation SKU Forecast, as the first four (4) weeks of such forecast is a firm order) between sixty (60) days and thirty (30) days prior to the launch date. Prior to any Supplier production run of the Innovation SKU, Purchaser may request changes in timing of receiving the first four (4) week order and Supplier will accommodate Purchaser's request if commercially reasonable, but Supplier is not obligated to do so. Supplier will communicate the potential liability (i.e., required purchases by Purchaser) of Innovation SKU finished goods to Purchaser at the end of the first four (4) weeks. iii. Once the Innovation SKU is launched, Purchaser shall update all final weeks of the Innovation SKU forecast (but not the first four (4) weeks of each updated Innovation SKU Forecast). The first four (4) weeks of the Innovation SKU Forecast (as modified by any permitted revisions, as permitted by this paragraph) will be a firm purchase obligation on behalf of Purchaser, and Purchaser must purchase all Product if Supplier has completed the production of the Innovation SKU for the four (4) week Innovation SKU Forecast. Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Purchaser with additional Innovation SKU volume during the first thirteen (13) weeks if product sales are greater than the forecast. iv. For orders of Innovation SKUs once launched, the SLA between Supplier and Purchaser will determine the order lead time due to differences in production cycles. Once Innovation SKU orders are placed within the SLA-agreed order lead time, these Innovation SKU orders shall be firm purchase orders, and Purchaser shall purchase and pay in full for the Innovation SKUs contained in such purchase orders. Supplier will accommodate Purchaser’s order that does not meet the order lead time if commercially reasonable, but Supplier is not obligated to do so. v. After the Innovation SKU has been distributed for thirteen (13) weeks, Purchaser will comply with the requirements of Section 6(a) above for any Rolling Forecasts required, which will provide subsequent Rolling Forecasts that include the Innovation SKU. 7. Local Innovation and Product Requests by Purchaser a. Primary packaging local innovation requests will go through Company’s commercialization process as updated from time to time by Company in its sole discretion. b. If a local innovation request involves Secondary and Tertiary Packaging changes and the request calls for graphics changes, the local innovation execution process for the graphics changes will be guided by the Company’s commercialization processes as described above.

 
8 In all other respects, the approval process for a local innovation request relating to Secondary or Tertiary Packaging will be as set forth below: i. Within three business days of a written request from Purchaser, Supplier will inform Purchaser whether Supplier has the capability to provide the requested local innovation; provided, however, that this response will not constitute a commitment by Supplier to proceed with the local innovation request. ii. If Supplier indicates that it does have the capability and capacity to supply the requested local innovation, then within ten (10) business days of a written request from Purchaser, Supplier will inform Purchaser of the costs of such requested local innovation within an expected range of +/- 40% accuracy. iii. Within twenty (20) business days of a written request from Purchaser, Supplier will inform Purchaser in writing of the actual costs, delivery dates and projected production quantities for the requested local innovation. If within twenty (20) business days following such written notice, Purchaser accepts such additional costs and delivery dates set forth in the notice and agrees to purchase all or a portion of such quantities set forth in such notice, Supplier shall be obligated to produce and deliver such quantities at the price and dates set forth in the notice. c. If Purchaser desires to purchase a SKU for its Territory that is not included in the Annual Sourcing Plan or Current Year Sourcing determined by NPSG for Purchaser’s Distribution Centers, Supplier shall not be required to provide such SKU. However, NPSG may update the Annual Sourcing Plan or Current Year Sourcing to determine the appropriate RPB and Regional Manufacturing Facility to source such SKU to Purchaser. 8. Price Except as specifically provided in Sections 7(b)(iii) and 7(c) hereof, Purchaser will purchase, and Supplier will sell, the Products at [***], as adjusted for Purchase Price Variances in accordance with the methodology set forth in Exhibit A. 9. Payment Terms and Invoicing a. Payment for Products is due in full within twenty-one (21) days from date of invoice. b. Supplier, or its agent, shall submit invoices for Products in accordance with Exhibit A hereto, and such invoices shall be submitted by Supplier to Purchaser within forty-five (45) days of shipment. c. Invoices will identify any applicable sales, use, or excise taxes.

 
9 d. Purchaser will reimburse Supplier, or its agent, for all sales, use or excise taxes (if any), but Purchaser will not be responsible for remittance of such taxes to applicable tax authorities. Supplier will remit such taxes to the applicable tax authorities. In the event Supplier fails to timely remit such taxes to the applicable tax authorities and Purchaser receives an audit assessment for such taxes, Supplier will reimburse Purchaser for such tax assessment including penalties and interest. To the extent applicable, Supplier shall reasonably cooperate with Purchaser in its efforts to obtain or maintain any reseller tax exemption certificates. 10. Service Level Agreement (SLA) Supplier and Purchaser agree to comply with the terms of the Service Level Agreement determined by the Parties as set forth in Exhibit C. The Parties agree that Exhibit C may contain more specific provisions, metrics and standards than are stated elsewhere in this Agreement. However, no provisions of the Service Level Agreement may act to limit, reduce or render unenforceable any of the terms of this Agreement and any such provisions of the SLA shall have no force and effect. 11. Supplier Customer Service Metrics a. Supplier agrees to implement a customer service metric or metrics to assess service performance to Purchaser Distribution Centers. Supplier will define the metric(s) with targets developed with Purchaser as part of the SLA. b. Supplier will use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) meet the customer service metric performance targets as set forth in the SLA and (b) measure, track, and report to Purchaser the customer service metric by time period for each Purchaser Distribution Center sourced by Supplier as set forth in the SLA. 12. Purchaser Performance Metrics a. If the Parties agree to a Rolling Forecast as part of Section 6(a), then Forecast Accuracy will be measured. i. “Forecast Accuracy” means the accuracy of the “Lag 2 Week” included in Purchaser’s Rolling Forecast for each Purchaser Distribution Center, which is the forecasted volume to be purchased from Supplier for the second week of each such Rolling Forecast, and is measured as 1 minus the Mean Absolute Percent Error (MAPE) over the 1 week period measured. “MAPE” is defined as the sum across all SKUs of the absolute value of the difference between the SKU-level Lag- 2 Week of the Rolling Forecast provided to Supplier and the actual SKU-level trade sales of Product sold by Purchaser in the Territory for such Lag-2 Week, divided by the actual SKU-level trade sales of Product sold by Purchaser in the Territory for such Lag-2 Week. Purchaser will not be responsible for forecast errors to the extent attributable to Product not delivered by Supplier (i.e., the calculation will be adjusted to take into account Product not delivered by Supplier to a particular Distribution Center for the Lag-2 Week period in question). iii. Purchaser will use commercially reasonable efforts to (a) meet the “Forecast Accuracy Performance Target” set forth in the Service Level Agreement and (b) track, measure, and report to Supplier Forecast Accuracy weekly by Lag 2 Week.

 
10 iv. NPSG maintains the listing of Limited Source SKUs. Because of sourcing difficulties related to Limited Source SKUs, forecasts for all Limited Source Core SKUs are considered firm purchase orders for the “Lag 2 Week.” b. Purchaser will measure order lead time adherence as defined by the Parties in the SLA ensuring that the requirements in Subsection 12(a) of this Agreement are met. 13. Product Quality a. Products must be delivered to Purchaser in saleable condition, meeting all product and package quality standards established by Company. b. Supplier will deliver all Products to Purchaser’s Distribution Center with at least 45 days of shelf life remaining, except that, in the case of SKUs requiring more than 45 days of shelf life remaining because of customer requirements (e.g., Club Stores, ARTM, etc.), Supplier will deliver such SKUs to Purchaser’s Distribution Center with at least 12 days more than the customer-specific requirements. c. Purchaser may accept or reject any Product with less than 45 days of available shelf life remaining, in Purchaser’s sole discretion, after discussion with Supplier. d. Products must have no material defects in material or workmanship when delivered to Purchaser’s Distribution Center. e. Supplier will not deliver to Purchaser’s Distribution Center(s) any Products that Supplier knows to be subject to recall. f. Product SKUs must be standing and undamaged when delivered by Supplier to Purchaser’s Distribution Center. g. Product loads must be braced and dunnaged or wrapped when delivered to Purchaser’s Distribution Center. h. Delivery trailers containing Products must be sealed, with Product documentation, and must not have off odors, leaks, or contaminants. 14. Product Orders and Risk of Loss a. Ordering will be as set forth in the SLA (Exhibit C), whether Purchaser places orders manually or through another type of order generation.  Supplier will implement order lead time requirements and define order lead time targets in the SLA. Order lead time will not exceed fourteen (14) calendar days from Purchaser order submittal to Purchaser order delivery, except as described in Section 14(c) below. b. Purchaser agrees to cooperate with Supplier’s order management personnel to comply with an efficient, level ordering plan for the purchase of Products by Purchaser. c. NPSG maintains a listing of Limited Source SKUs. Because of sourcing difficulties related to Limited Source SKUs, orders for all Limited Source Core SKUs are considered firm purchase orders within seven (7) calendar days of their requested delivery to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall purchase and pay in full for the Limited Source Core SKUs contained in such purchase orders. For orders of Limited Source Non-Core SKUs, the SLA between Supplier and Purchaser will determine the order lead time due to differences in production cycles. Once Limited Source Non-Core SKU orders are placed within the SLA-agreed order lead time, these Limited Source Non-Core SKU orders shall be firm purchase orders, and Purchaser shall purchase and pay in full for the Limited Source Non-Core SKUs contained in such purchase orders.

 
11 d. Except as provided in the SLA (Exhibit C), (i) all orders for Product from Supplier must be in full truck load quantities only and (ii) the minimum order quantity per SKU will be a full pallet. e. Supplier will ship Product orders from the Regional Manufacturing Facility designated by the NPSG to Purchaser’s Distribution Centers, except as provided in Subsection 14(f). Title and risk of loss will pass to Purchaser upon initial receipt of the Products at Purchaser’s Distribution Center. f. At Supplier’s sole discretion, Purchaser may be permitted to pick up Product orders at Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facility designated by the NPSG. Title and risk of loss will pass to Purchaser upon completion of the loading of such Products on Purchaser’s vehicles or common carriers at Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facility. g. Additional provisions regarding placement and execution of orders are set forth in the SLA (Exhibit C). h. Neither Purchaser nor Supplier will make any changes in the Product order fulfillment process that could have an operational or financial impact on the other Party without the prior review and approval of the other Party (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed and which will be documented in the SLA). 15. Escalation a. The Parties acknowledge and agree that they anticipate that demand and supply issues will occur during the Term, and that, pursuant to Section 4 above, financial remedies are not available for such variances. However if demand- or supply-related issues (a) are substantial or excessive in the reasonable opinion of Purchaser because of their impact to service and costs; and (b) these issues have not been mitigated to Purchaser’s reasonable requirements identified in the SLA, then the Parties shall attempt to resolve any disputes amicably, with ultimate referral of the issues to their senior Supply Chain and Financial officers. If these officers are unable to resolve the dispute, Purchaser may, at its option, refer the matter to NPSG staff for possible resolution through potential modifications to the Annual Sourcing Plan or Current Year Sourcing. b. While financial remedies for demand or supply-related sourcing issues are not prescribed in this Agreement, the Parties acknowledge that future circumstances may require that financial remedies be considered. The Parties may, at their option, refer such matters to CCNA and CCNA will work collaboratively with the Parties to consider appropriate remedies. No such remedies shall be effective unless first agreed upon in writing by the Parties. c. The Parties acknowledge that this Agreement has been prepared based on a form determined by the Company, in order to support the goals of the Coca-Cola bottling system in the United States, including: (i) the sustainable effectiveness and efficiency of such system and its members; (ii) increasing the competitiveness of such system and its members; and (iii) the profitable growth of such system and its members. The Parties, along with Company, shall meet periodically in order to discuss proposed amendments to this Agreement to support the goals stated above. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith with one another and with Company with respect to such proposed amendments, which amendments will require mutual written agreement to be effective. It is provided, however, that: (i) no amendment shall conflict with the reserved rights of Supplier set forth in Attachment 1-A of the NPSG Governance Agreement; and (ii) no amendment shall be effective with respect to a Party if it conflicts with the Party’s existing contractual obligations, whether with Company or otherwise. It is further provided that the Parties shall not modify or amend this Agreement (except for amendments to Exhibit C and for amendments to the notice addresses provided in section 32) without the express written consent of Company.

 
12 d.

Supplier will assume responsibility and expense of investigation, litigation, judgment and/or settlement of any such claim on the condition that Supplier is notified promptly (in no event later than thirty (30) days after the first receipt of written notice thereof by Purchaser) in writing of any such claim and is permitted to deal therewith at its own discretion and through its own representatives; except that Purchaser’s failure to provide notice of a claim will not affect Supplier’s obligation to indemnify the claim under this Section 23 unless such failure prejudices the defense of such claim. The Parties will cooperate reasonably in the investigation and defense of any such claim, and Supplier will not settle any such claim that imposes on Purchaser a non-monetary obligation or a liability that is not indemnified without Purchaser’s prior written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Supplier will have no obligation to indemnify Purchaser for any claim to the extent that such claim arises out of the negligence or recklessness of Purchaser. This Section 23 sets forth the sole and exclusive remedy for Purchaser against Supplier with respect to third party claims relating to the Products purchased by Purchaser from Supplier under this Agreement.

16 27. Assignment Except in connection with any permitted assignment by Purchaser of its rights under the Comprehensive Beverage Agreement, Purchaser may not assign this Agreement or any of the rights hereunder or delegate any of its obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of Supplier, and any such attempted assignment will be void. 28.

EXHIBIT A Purchase Price Variances and Other Pricing Matters 1. For each calendar year, purchase price variances (“Purchase Price Variances” or “PPV”) will be reconciled in the following manner for Purchaser: (a) As used in this Exhibit, “Purchaser PPV” means the variances between: [***], and [***], which amount shall be calculated and reviewed by CCNA Exchange. For the avoidance of doubt, as used in this Exhibit A [***] in accordance with a standard methodology as determined by the NPSG. (b) CCNA Exchange will provide Purchaser with an interim report on Purchase Price Variances on a quarterly basis within 45 calendar days after the end of each quarter, for informational purposes only, and a reconciliation will occur within 120 days following calendar year end, as described below. (c) If [***] are greater than [***], then Purchaser shall pay to Supplier (or to CCNA Exchange or its agent on behalf of Supplier) the difference applicable to Purchaser as calculated and reported by CCNA Exchange, with such report showing [***] for each SKU purchased by Purchaser during the prior year. Purchaser shall make any such payment within thirty (30) days following reconciliation. (d) If [***] are less than [***], then Supplier (or CCNA Exchange or its agent on Supplier’s behalf) shall pay to Purchaser the difference applicable to Purchaser as calculated and reported by CCNA Exchange, with such report showing [***] for each SKU purchased by Purchaser during the prior year. Supplier (or CCNA Exchange or its agent on Supplier’s behalf) shall make any such payment within thirty (30) days following reconciliation. (e) For greater certainty, following the above reconciliation, the adjusted amount [***] paid by Purchaser to Supplier (including any amounts paid to CCNA Exchange on behalf of Supplier) for each SKU purchased by Purchaser in a calendar year will not exceed the adjusted amount paid by other Expanding Participating Bottlers (other than any that are RPBs) and Participating Bottlers in the United States (including amounts paid to CCNA Exchange on behalf of Supplier in connection with the reconciliation) for each respective SKU purchased in such calendar year. 2. Purchaser will be entitled to a freight credit from Supplier for Authorized Covered Beverages picked up by Purchaser at the Supplier’s Regional Manufacturing Facility only if Supplier has agreed to allow for Purchaser pick up of Products as specified in Section 14(f) of this Agreement. The amount of the freight credit will be established by CCNA Exchange. 3. Purchaser will pay Supplier a deposit equal to Supplier’s standard rate, as stated in the Service Level Agreement (Exhibit C), for shells, pallets, CO2 containers, etc., which will be refunded to Purchaser when items are returned. 4. CCNA Exchange will engage a certified public accounting firm (“Firm”) annually to review and perform tests of:

 
a. Compliance by Supplier with requirements that Supplier calculate and provide to NPSG its [***] calculated per physical case in accordance with a standard methodology as determined by the NPSG; b. Compliance by Supplier with the requirements of this Agreement that the price charged by Supplier to Purchaser for each SKU of Authorized Covered Beverages has not exceeded the price charged by Supplier to other Expanding Participating Bottlers (other than any that are RPBs), or Participating Bottlers in the United States for each such respective SKU. c. Compliance by Supplier and CCNA Exchange in calculating and settling Purchaser PPV in accordance with the methodology set forth in this Exhibit A. 5. To the extent permitted by law, CCNA Exchange will share the Firm’s report with each member of the NPSG. To the extent permitted by law, and in accordance with a mutually agreed non-disclosure agreement to address the confidentiality requirements of each of the parties and of CCNA, CCNA Exchange will share the Firm’s report with one senior management representative selected by the Officers of the Coca-Cola Bottlers Association (“”CCBA”) from each of: two Participating Bottlers and two Expanding Participating Bottlers that are not members of the NPSG (collectively, the “Bottler FGSA Committee”), and, if requested by the Bottler FGSA Committee, with the Executive Director of CCBA. The Bottler FGSA Committee and the CCNA Exchange will work together in good faith to: (a) determine the extent and form of legally permissible disclosure of the Firm’s report, or excerpts or summaries thereof, to one senior management representative from each Expanding Participating Bottler and Participating Bottler that is not represented on the Bottler FGSA Committee, and (b) to facilitate such disclosure in a mutually agreed manner in accordance with a mutually agreed non- disclosure agreement.

 
EXHIBIT B Demand and Supply Variance Management between Supplier and Purchaser Distribution Centers a. When used in this Exhibit B, “Variance(s)” shall mean variances from the Annual Sourcing Plan or Current Year Sourcing determined by NPSG. b. Any Variances within a calendar year (whether or not required by NPSG sourcing requirements) that solely impact Supplier and Purchaser shall be managed directly between Supplier and Purchaser without CCNA’s involvement as per Section 4 of this Agreement. No financial remedy of any kind is available between Supplier and Purchaser for any such Variances. c. In the case of Authorized Covered Beverages, Purchaser may purchase or acquire one or more SKUs from alternate Regional Manufacturing Facilities based on the NPSG Annual Sourcing or Current Year Sourcing matrix (i.e., primary and secondary sources including, if applicable, from any such authorized production facilities operated by Purchaser), or: (a) from other producing bottlers authorized by CCNA that are not part of NPSG or (b) from a finished goods co-operative if Purchaser is a member of such co-operative and has purchase obligations, if and to the extent that: (i) Supplier has notified Purchaser that Supplier cannot or will not provide such SKU (such notice to be provided by telephone call and email); (ii) Purchaser has reasonably determined that delivery by Supplier of any such SKU (including any SKU requested by Purchaser’s customers) to the applicable Distribution Center will either (A) be 48 hours or more overdue, or (B) result in a Distribution Center out-of-stock situation; or (iii) Supplier’s delivery of any Products is delayed or impaired as a result of a Force Majeure Event. No financial remedy of any kind is available between Supplier and Purchaser for any such Variances. d. Purchaser will have the right to source from alternate Regional Manufacturing Facilities based on the NPSG Annual Sourcing Plan or Current Year Sourcing matrix (i.e., primary and secondary sources including, if applicable, any such authorized production facilities operated by Purchaser) or: (a) from other producing bottlers authorized by CCNA that are not part of NPSG or (b) from a finished goods co-operative if Purchaser is a member of such a co- operative and has purchase obligations if and to the extent the order is for: (i) slow moving products (less than full pallet quantities), (ii) customer special requests, and (iii) “Hot Shot” Orders (i.e., time-sensitive orders that require faster delivery times than are required in the normal order process) that Supplier cannot fulfill or elects not to fulfill, in each case, so long as Purchaser has first provided Supplier with the opportunity to supply the requested Products and Supplier has declined to provide them. Supplier will respond in a reasonably prompt manner to any such requests from Purchaser. No financial remedy of any kind is available between Supplier and Purchaser for any such Variances.

 
EXHIBIT C Service Level Agreement (“SLA”) The SLA is developed between the Parties to ensure that the detailed operating requirements in this FGSA are documented.

EXHIBIT D Supplier’s Recall Obligations 1. In the event of the existence of quality or technical problems relating to Authorized Covered Beverages, Company may require Supplier to take all necessary action to recall all of such Authorized Covered Beverages, or any package used for such Authorized Covered Beverages, or withdraw immediately such Authorized Covered Beverages from the market or the trade, as the case may be. 2. In the event of a withdrawal or recall of any Authorized Covered Beverage or any package used for such Authorized Covered Beverage, that was produced by Supplier and sold to Purchaser, Supplier will use its commercially reasonable efforts to respond promptly and fairly if a claim is made by Purchaser as a result of any such withdrawal or recall. 3. If any withdrawal or recall is caused by Supplier’s failure to comply with the technical requirements of Company or any applicable laws, rules and regulations (it being understood and agreed that Supplier will not be responsible for any failure to comply with the technical requirements or applicable laws to the extent such failure results from the content or design of labels authorized by Company for use on Authorized Covered Beverages), the provisions of Section 17 (Warranty) and Section 23 (Indemnity) of this Agreement shall apply.
