Item
1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive
Agreement.
On
July
16, 2007, we, Coca-Cola Bottling Company, The Coca-Cola Company, and Coca-Cola
Ltd. agreed to amend the cold drink equipment purchase partnership programs
currently in effect for the United States and Canada.
Coca-Cola
Bottling Company is our bottler in Canada. The Coca-Cola Company and
its affiliated company, Coca-Cola Ltd., are the respective licensors of our
bottlers in the United States and Canada.
The
amendment (i) eliminates the average minimum gross profit requirement for
energy
coolers and instead includes energy coolers in the average minimum volume
requirement; (ii) eliminates the alternative credit previously established
for
energy coolers; and (iii) updates the purchase plan requirements.
