Suntory Holdings Limited

In April 2013 (during our second quarter), we completed a transaction with Suntory Holdings Limited. Under the terms of the agreement, we sold a controlling interest in our Vietnam bottling operations. The new alliance will serve as the franchise bottler for both companies. We anticipate recording an after-tax gain of approximately $140 million associated with this transaction in our second quarter results.
