Madrid, 30 July 2015

THE PARTIES

 

I. The natural and legal persons included in Schedule I. Each of these natural and legal persons is represented by the signatories of Schedule I.

These natural and legal persons, together with the shareholders, whether natural or legal persons, of Coca Cola Iberian Partners, S.A. who adhere to this agreement in accordance with its content, will be referred to as the “Accepting Shareholders” and each of them individually as the “Accepting Shareholder”.

 

II. Coca Cola Iberian Partners, S.A., a Spanish company with registered office at Paseo de la Castellana, 259-C (Torre de Cristal), Floor 9, 28046, Madrid and Spanish tax identification number A-86.561.412 (“Olive”). Olive is duly represented by [D.ª Sol Daurella I Comadrán].

 

III. Cobega, S.A., a Spanish company with registered office at Av. dels Països Catalans, no. 32, Esplugues de Llobregat, Barcelona (Spain) and Spanish tax identification numberA-08.080.632 (“Cobega”). Cobega is duly represented by [D.ª Sol Daurella i Comadrán].

The Accepting Shareholders, Olive and Cobega, will be jointly referred to as the “Parties”, and each of them individually as the “Party”.

WHEREAS

 

I. The Accepting Shareholders are shareholders of Olive, a company the corporate purpose of which is mainly to sell and purchase, manufacture, bottle, pack, distribute and commercialize, both nationally and internationally, any kind of drinks and food products, including any kind of carbonated and soft drinks, mineral water, juices and nectars or any other non-alcoholic beverage commercialized under brands owned by The Coca-Cola Company (“Red”) (“Bottling Business”).

Olive’s Bottling Business is currently developed in Spain, Portugal and Andorra.

 

II.

Cobega and its wholly owned subsidiary Solinbar, S.L.U. (“Solinbar”) are the owners of shares representing 100% of the share capital of Vífilfell hf, an Icelandic company

 

5/66


 

Executed version, 2015/07/31

 

 

[ENGLISH TRANSLATION FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES]

 

  that owns the Bottling Business carried out in Iceland (“Vífilfell”). In particular, Cobega owns 679,794,345 shares of Vífilfell, representing 99.99999985% of its share capital, and Solinbar owns one share of Vífilfell, representing the 0.00000015% of its share capital. Cobega is also the main and controlling shareholder of Cobega Invest, S.L., which in turn is an Accepting Shareholder.

 

III. Olive is negotiating with Red and Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc. (“White”) the possible integration of their Bottling Businesses in several jurisdictions (“Bottling Businesses” and “Project Spark”, respectively). In this regard:

 

  (i) Red is a company incorporated in Delaware which shares are traded in the New York Stock Exchange, which corporate purpose is mainly to manufacture and sell drink bases, essences and other ingredients and drink concentrates, and is the owner, among others, of the “Coca-Cola” and “Coke” brands. Red is, moreover, the indirect sole shareholder of Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetränke AG (“Black”), which owns a Bottling Business in Germany.

 

  (ii) White is a company incorporated in Delaware which shares are traded in the New York Stock Exchange, and is the owner of a Bottling Business developed in Belgium, France, Great Britain, Luxemburg, Monaco, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden.

The purpose of Project Spark is for the Bottling Businesses of Olive, White and Black to be carried out by a newly incorporated company under English and Wales law, with registered office in London (“Orange”), which will initially be owned by Olive shareholders – who will be joint owners through a holding company –, Red and the shareholders of White. The shares of the new company will be listed on Amsterdam Stock Exchange (Euronext Amsterdam), the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and, to the extent possible, on Euronext London and the Spanish stock exchanges of Barcelona, Bilbao, Madrid and Valencia by means of the Stock Exchange Interconnection System (Continuous Market).

 

IV.

Given that it is intended for all Olive shareholders to have a shareholding in Orange through a holding company, Project Spark requires, in connection with Olive and as a

 

6/66


 

Executed version, 2015/07/31

 

 

[ENGLISH TRANSLATION FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES]

 

  first step, the incorporation by the Accepting Shareholders of a Spanish corporation (sociedad anónima), to which the Accepting Shareholders will contribute their Olive shares (“HoldCo”), so that they have an indirect shareholding in Olive through HoldCo. This operation will be referred to as the “Iberian Reorganisation”.

The Iberian Reorganisation will enable a more flexible and adequate corporate structure to face potential expansion strategies of Olive, in line with those of other first-rate international groups. This corporate structure consists of a holding parent company (HoldCo) which controls other companies that unite the group’s shareholding in different jurisdictions or business lines.

Thus, HoldCo will be the parent holding company of the group controlling Olive, a sub-holding company which will connect the Bottling Business in the Iberian Peninsula, and eventually other sub-holding companies, at Olive level, which in turn will connect the Bottling Businesses in other jurisdictions or business lines.

This structure will provide a more adequate corporate management for investments in other jurisdictions and/or business lines, facilitating investment and disinvestment, and integration or collaboration agreements.

In light of the above, the Iberian Reorganisation is advisable, regardless of whether or not Project Spark is implemented.

 

V. With regard to Project Spark:

 

  (i) the assets which are not used in the Bottling Business included in Schedule V and owned by Olive’s subsidiaries will be excluded from Olive’s Bottling Business that HoldCo contributes to Orange (“Excluded Assets”), and

 

  (ii) (a) Cobega will sell and transfer shares representing 100% of Vífilfell’s share capital to Orange (or to whom it indicates) and (b) Solinbar will sell and transfer its single share of Vífilfell to Olive (or to whom it indicates) ((a) and (b) will be jointly referred to as “Vífilfell Sale and Purchase”).

The procedures to (i) exclude the Excluded Assets from Olive’s Bottling Business and (ii) sell Vífilfell will be jointly referred to as “Adjustments to Perimeter”.

[ENGLISH TRANSLATION FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES]

 

VI. The Accepting Shareholders agree to specify the terms and conditions which, if the conditions contained in this agreement are fulfilled, will govern the Iberian Reorganisation, Adjustments to Perimeter and Project Spark.

 

VII. Olive has been provided a report issued by N M Rothschild & Sons Limited that concludes that, as at the date of the report, Olive’s valuation within the Project Spark framework was fair and appropriate for Olive and its shareholders.

 

VIII. Olive’s Board of Directors, in its meeting held today:

 

  (i) approved Olive’s execution of the Master Agreement governing the process to implement Project Spark. According to this Master Agreement, Olive undertakes to encourage Olive shareholders who did not execute this agreement today to do so in accordance with the provision established herein;

 

  (ii) confirmed that the transfer of Olive shares in favour of HoldCo, by the Accepting Shareholders that are legal persons provided in this Framework Agreement (as this term is defined below), are covered by section (iii) of article 8.3 of Olive articles of association, therefore being a Permitted Transfers and being this Framework Agreement a Confirmation as this terms is defined in the referred articles of association;

 

  (iii) confirmed that once Olive General Shareholders Meeting to be held on 30 September 2015 pursuant to clause 9 below approves the amendment of the articles of association provided in section (iii) of such Clause, the transfers of Olive shares in favour of HoldCo by Accepting Shareholders that are natural persons provided in this Framework Agreement, will be included in section (ii) of article 8.3 of Olive articles of association, therefore being Permitted Transfers and being this Framework Agreement a Confirmation as this terms is defined in the referred articles of association;

 

  (iv) confirmed upon execution of this Framework Agreement, the transfer of Olive shares in favour of HoldCo by Accepting Shareholders that are legal persons provided in this Framework Agreement are permitted under section (c) of clause 13.3 of Olive shareholders Agreement executed on 24 January 2013 (“Olive Shareholders Agreement”), being this Framework Agreement the confirmatory notice provided in such clause;

 

8/66


 

Executed version, 2015/07/31

 

 

[ENGLISH TRANSLATION FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES]

 

  (v) confirmed that upon execution of this Framework Agreement, the transfer of Olive shares in favour of HoldCo by Accepting Shareholders that are natural persons provided in this Framework Agreement, are permitted under section (d) of clause 13.3 of Olive Shareholders Agreement, as amended pursuant to Clause 9 below, being this Framework Agreement the confirmatory notice provided in such clause;

 

  (vi) confirmed that it is envisaged that in the Master Agreement referred to in Clause 5.1.3 below, or in a separate document, Red and The Coca Cola Export Corporation grant the authorisation referred to in clauses 13.2 and 13.8 (i) of Olive Shareholders Agreement regarding the transfer of shares of the Company in favour of HoldCo provided un this Framework Agreement; and

 

  (vii) for the purpose of article 88 of Royal Legislative Decree 1/2010 of 2 July approving the consolidated text of the Spanish Companies Act, authorise the Accepting Shareholders’ transfer of their Olive shares to HoldCo.

 

IX. Project Spark is highly confidential, among other reasons, because the significant amount of information regarding Red and White – which, as stated, are listed companies – which is not in the public domain (such as information contained in this Framework Agreement) is subject to strict legal confidentiality obligations.

In compliance with these confidentiality obligations, this agreement is initially executed only by those Olive shareholders who have appointed (either directly or indirectly by means of other shareholders to whom they are connected) Olive directors, thus, a period is established – which will start once Project Spark is publicly announced– so that the remaining shareholders can also adhere to this agreement as Accepting Shareholders.

 

X.

According to the liquidity mechanism provided for in clause 14 of Olive shareholders’ agreement executed on 24 January 2013 (the “Olive Shareholders’ Agreement”) (i) shareholders were informed about the Market Value (as this term is defined in the

 

9/66


 

Executed version, 2015/07/31

 

 

[ENGLISH TRANSLATION FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES]

 

  Olive Shareholders’ Agreement) of Olive shares determined by Barclays and N M Rothschild & Sons Limited and which amounted to EUR 3,538 per share at Olive’s General Shareholders’ Meeting dated 22 June 2015 and (ii) the period to exercise the liquidity mechanisms for financial year 2015 expired on 15 July 2015.

In this context, the Accepting Shareholders intend to establish – before carrying out the Iberian Reorganisation – a new liquidity window, to enable Olive shareholders that did not execute the agreement (and who, therefore, do not intend to participate in the Iberian Reorganisation or/and Project Spark) to sell their Olive shares in a procedure similar to the liquidity mechanism established in the Olive Shareholders’ Agreement.

In light of the above, the Parties agree to enter into this framework agreement (“Framework Agreement”), which will be governed by the following

4.2 Excluded Assets

 

4.2.1 Contribution of Excluded Assets to SPV Assets

As soon as possible, after incorporation, Olive affiliates holding Excluded Assets (identified in Schedule V) will contribute the Excluded Assets (except those that may have been transferred to third parties) to a newly established limited liability company (sociedad de responsabilidad limitada de nueva creación) in the framework of an incorporation or a share capital increase of Olive (“SPV Assets”). For the purposes of contributing the Excluded Assets to SPV Assets, these will be valued pursuant to their value in the balance sheet of the contributor.

SPV Assets will assume all current or future debts and liabilities related to the Excluded Assets. That commitment will be carried out, to the extent possible, through the termination of the debt or liability of the contributing companies with third parties and, if not possible, the commitment will be carried out by SPV Assets cumulatively and non-exhaustive effect, with the obligation to hold the contributing companies harmless from any damages that may be suffered in relation to those debts and liabilities. Annex 4.2.1. includes a model clause to include in the deed of incorporation or capital increase.

HoldCo will be guarantor of SPV Assets obligations pursuant to the above paragraph.

In the scenario that Olive is a wholly owned subsidiary of HoldCo following the contribution of the Excluded Assets to SPV Assets, its total shareholding will be distributed as dividend in kind, in a process that will make HoldCo the sole shareholder of SPV Assets, which owns the Excluded Assets (except the Excluded Assets that may have been transferred to third parties).

The management strategy that HoldCo will follow with regard to SPV Assets will consist in transferring Excluded Assets, either individually or jointly, through sale and purchase agreements in order to maximize their value.

(in relation to the Project Spark) to take place on the same date: the Incorporation Date (as defined below), provided that the HoldCo Condition and Spark Conditions have been fulfilled on that date.

Moreover, it is the intention of the Parties that the necessary steps to implement the Adjustments to Perimeters start on the Incorporation Date and are completed as soon as possible after the said date.

Hence, when the HoldCo Condition and Spark Conditions are fulfilled, Olive will notify the Accepting Shareholders (the “Closing Notification”) and ask them to appear on a given date and time, which must be within 30 business days from the Closing Notification, before the Notary Public of Madrid referred to in the Closing Notification, for the purpose of carrying out the steps set out in Clauses 2.3 and 2.4 (in connection with the Iberian Reorganisation), in Clause 4.1.2 (in connection with the Vífilfell Sale and Purchase), and in Clause 5.2.1 (in connection with Project Spark), and therefore execute the Iberian Reorganisation and Project Spark and start the Adjustments to Perimeter (the “Incorporation Date”).

This extraordinary liquidity mechanism will have the following characteristics:

REQUEST TO APPOINT AN INDEPENDENT EXPERT

TO THE COMMERCIAL REGISTRAR OF MADRID IT MAY CONCERN

Ms. Sol Daurella i Comadrán, of legal age, married, of Spanish nationality, with professional domicile at Paseo de la Castellana, 259-C (Torre de Cristal), Planta 9, 28046, Madrid and holding Spanish national identification number (DNI) 38.796.879-L in the name and on behalf of Cobega Invest, S.L. in her capacity as joint and several director), with registered office in Esplugues de Llobregat (Barcelona), av. dels Països Catalans 32, registered with the Commercial Registry of Barcelona under volume 43,390, page 106 and sheet B-427.995, and holding Spanish tax identification number B-65879512 (the “Applicant”), in her capacity as the promoter of the incorporation of the company (sociedad anónima) with registered office in Madrid (the “Company”).

I appear before you and,

STATES

 

I. That the Applicant holds shares of Coca Cola Iberian Partners, S.A. representing 53.9% of its share capital.

[Olive] is a Spanish company with registered office at paseo de la Castellana, 259-C (Torre de Cristal), Planta 9, 28046, Madrid and with tax identification number A-86.561.412, registered with the Commercial Registry of Madrid under volume 30,349, page 135, sheet M-546.165 (“CCIP”).

CCIP has a share capital of ONE THOUSAND FIVE HUNDRED AND SEVENTEEN MILLIONS OF EUROS (EUR 1,517,000,000), fully subscribed and disbursed, divided into 1,517,000,000 nominative ordinary shares with voting rights and of a single class and series, Serie B, numbered consecutively from 1-B to 1,517,000,000-B, both included, with per share face value of EUR 1 (the “Shares”).

 

II. That the Applicant, together with other CCIP shareholders, among others, have entered into a framework agreement today, 30 July 2015 (the “Framework Agreement”) by virtue of which they agreed to, among other terms:

 

  (i) incorporate the Company as a limited liability company (sociedad anónima) with registered office in Madrid; and

 

  (ii) contribute to the Company by means of its incorporation, (the “Incorporation”), all the CCIP shares they hold, subscribing shares of the Company with a one-to-one exchange ratio, i.e. one share of the Company in exchange for each share of CCIP contributed.

 

44/66


 

Executed version, 2015/07/31

 

 

[ENGLISH TRANSLATION FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES]

 

Pursuant to the Framework Agreement, the above arrangements are subject to the condition precedent that the CCIP shareholders forming part of the Framework Agreement represent at least a 80 % of the share capital of CCIP.

The signatories of the Framework Agreement jointly hold shares representing more than 92% of the share capital of CCIP. For confidentiality reasons, the CCIP shareholders who have not signed the Framework Agreement will be informed of such agreement on [or around 7] August 2015, and will be invited to adhere to it, having a term to adhere which will expire on 25 September 2015.

Both the Applicant and the remaining CCIP shareholders who have signed the Framework Agreement expect that all the CCIP shareholders will execute the Framework Agreement. However, it is possible that CCIP shareholders decided not to execute the Framework Agreement and not to contribute its/his/her CCIP shares to the Company.

Therefore, in compliance with the aforementioned condition precedent, the CCIP shares that will be contributed to the Company (in the Incorporation) will represent between 80 to 100% of CCIP’s share capital.

 

III. In return for every CCIP share contributed to the Company by means of the Incorporation, a new share will be issued with a per share face value of EUR one. This exchange rate will be maintained regardless of the number of CCIP shares effectively contributed to the Company. The shares issues by the Company will be fully subscribed and disbursed by means of the contribution of the corresponding CCIP shares.

 

IV. The Applicant, in its capacity as the promoter of the incorporation of the Company, wishes to request that the Commercial Registry of Madrid appoint an independent expert to issue a report regarding the Shares pursuant to article 67 of the Companies Act and articles 133 and 338 of the Commercial Registry Regulation, indicating that the valuation of the shares corresponds to the face value (and the premium, if applicable) of the Company shares to be issued in exchange for the Incorporation.

 

V. That, within the preceding three months, no valuation of the described Shares has been issued by an independent expert appointed by the Commercial Registry.

In light of the above,

REQUESTS

 

I.- That, considering this request submitted, that it be admitted and, conducting the prior required proceedings, an independent expert be appointed to issue a report regarding the Shares that will be the consideration of the Incorporation of the Company, that will be drafted pursuant to article 67 of the Companies Act and articles 133 and 338 of the Commercial Registry Regulation, indicating that the valuation of the shares corresponds to the number and face value of the shares of the Company to be issued as consideration for the Incorporation.

SCHEDULE 5.1.1

VALUATION

Description of the bottling businesses of Olive, Black and White that will be contributed to Orange

Olive

Olive is Red’s independent bottler for Spain, Portugal and Andorra.

The company manufactures and markets Red’s non-alcoholic ready-to-drink products such as carbonated soft drinks (including Coca-Cola and Fanta), non-carbonated soft drinks (including Nestea and Powerade), juices (Minute Maid), and water (aquaBona and Toscal). Olive has 19 brands and 84 products in its portfolio and serves over 100m consumers and 400k clients.

The company was formed in 2013 as a result of the integration of eight existing regional bottling companies in the Iberian Peninsula. This integration has allowed the company to position itself as the top food and beverage company in the Iberian region and to extract significant synergies from undertaking a full integration of the eight businesses.

Olive has c.4,700 employees and is headquartered in Barcelona, Spain.

Black

Black is Red’s wholly owned bottling subsidiary in Germany, which manufactures and markets Red brand products in Germany.

The company bottles mainly carbonated soft drinks (including Coca-Cola, Coke Zero, Coca-Cola Light, Sprite, Fanta), but also juices, ready-to-drink tea, and water (ViO).

Black is the largest German beverages company, which resulted from several waves of consolidation of a number of regional and largely family owned bottling franchises, which started in the middle of the 1900s and was completed in January 2014 with the final buyout by Red of the remaining minorities.

Black has c.10,160 employees and is headquartered in Berlin, Germany.

White

White is one of Red’s largest independent bottlers in the world, operating across Belgium, continental France, Great Britain, Luxembourg, Monaco, the Netherlands, Norway, and Sweden.

Along with Red’s flagship product Coca-Cola, the company’s portfolio encompasses a broad range of regular, low- and no-calorie beverage categories including energy drinks, still and sparkling waters, juices, sports drinks, and ready-to-drink teas. Other innovative brands in portfolio include Capri-Sun, Appletiser, Smartwater and Monster. White serves a market of approximately 170m customers and has 17 production facilities.

Although White has been an independent publicly traded company since 1986, it became exclusively a European Bottler in October 2010 following a transaction with Red in which Red acquired all of White’s the Northern American operations. As part of the transaction, White retained the European territories and also acquired bottling rights in Norway and Sweden. The new European bottler was incorporated in Delaware in 2010 and is a publicly traded company listed on the New York Stock Exchange and NYSE Euronext in Paris.

White has c.11,520 employees and is headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia USA.

Orange

The unified bottler Orange will have significant scale and reach in the Western European markets, with a total of c.2.5bn of unit cases, c.€12bn of sales, c. €1.9bn of EBITDA and c.€1.5bn of EBIT with 50 manufacturing sites.

Methods followed to assess the Bottling Businesses and the valuations for each of the bottling businesses in the framework of Project Spark

Valuation approach to the bottling businesses in the framework of Project Spark

It was agreed between the three parties that a public market multiple-based methodology is the most appropriate valuation framework for determining relative contribution values in this case as White’s current trading multiple represents an obvious point of reference for investors. Other valuation methodologies have been reviewed by
