PLEASE READ THE INSTRUCTIONS SET FORTH IN THIS ADS
LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL CAREFULLY.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

        The undersigned hereby tenders to Pepsi-Cola (Bermuda) Limited ("Purchaser"), a subsidiary of PepsiCo, Inc., a North-Carolina corporation ("PepsiCo"), the above-described American Depositary Shares ("ADSs"), each representing one-quarter of one ordinary share, par value 20 Russian rubles per share ("Shares"), of Wimm-Bill-Dann Foods OJSC, an open-joint stock company organized under the laws of the Russian Federation ("WBD"), upon the terms set forth in the U.S. Offer to Purchase, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, and this ADS Letter of Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto or thereto, collectively constitute the "U.S. Offer"). I understand that the U.S. Offer is being made to facilitate the participation of ADS holders in the Russian mandatory tender offer (the "Russian Offer") that Purchaser is obligated to commence as more fully described in "The OfferSection 1—Background to the U.S. Offer" in the U.S. Offer to Purchase. I will execute all other documents and take all other actions required to enable Purchaser to receive all rights to, and benefits of, the Shares represented by the tendered ADSs.

        Subject to my withdrawal rights and the acceptance of the ADSs tendered by this ADS Letter of Transmittal, in each case, in accordance with the terms of the U.S. Offer—including, if the U.S. Offer is extended or amended, the terms of any extension or amendment—I hereby sell, assign and transfer to, or upon the order of, Purchaser, all right, title and interest in the ADSs tendered by this ADS Letter of Transmittal. I hereby irrevocably constitute and appoint the U.S. Tender Agent as the agent and attorney-in-fact with respect to the tendered ADSs, with full knowledge that the U.S. Tender Agent is also acting as the agent of Purchaser in connection with the U.S. Offer, with full power of substitution, such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an interest, subject only to the limited right of withdrawal as set forth in the U.S. Offer, to take the following actions:

    execute and deliver, on the undersigned's behalf, all forms of transfer and other documents, including the American Depositary Receipts (the "Receipts") representing the ADSs if you hold ADSs in physical certificated form, in order to effect the tender of the ADSs indicated in this ADS Letter of Transmittal and the transfer of the Shares underlying such ADSs;

    direct the U.S. Tender Agent, or a custodian or other agent acting on its behalf, to tender into the Russian Offer the Shares represented by the tendered ADSs indicated in this ADS Letter of Transmittal; and

    take all such other actions as the attorney-in-fact considers necessary or expedient to vest in Purchaser or its nominees title to the Shares represented by the tendered ADSs indicated in this ADS Letter of Transmittal.

        I hereby represent and warrant that I or my agent holds title to the ADSs being tendered or, if I am tendering ADSs on behalf of another person, such person holds title to ADSs being tendered; that neither I nor my agent nor any person on whose behalf I am tendering ADSs has granted to any person any right to acquire any of the ADSs being tendered or any other right with respect to these ADSs; that I have full power, authority and capacity under applicable law to tender, sell, assign and transfer the ADSs tendered by this ADS Letter of Transmittal, and that, when the tendered ADSs are accepted and the Shares underlying such ADSs are transferred, Purchaser will acquire good, marketable and unencumbered title to such Shares, free and clear of all liens, equities, restrictions, charges and encumbrances, together with all rights that they now have or may acquire in the future, including voting rights and rights to all dividends, other distributions and payments hereafter declared, made or paid, and the same will not be subject to any adverse claim; and that the tendered ADSs and Shares representing such ADSs are not subject to any adverse claims or proxies.

        I hereby irrevocably authorize and request the U.S. Tender Agent to procure the registration of the transfer of the Shares represented by the tendered ADSs and the delivery of these Shares to Purchaser or as Purchaser may direct, in particular to record and act upon any instructions with respect to notices and payments relating to my ADSs which have been recorded in WBD's books and records, including any actions necessary with respect to Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, (the "ADS Depositary"), and Deutsche Bank Moscow's (the ADS Depositary's custodian) account with WBD's share registrar, Novy Registrator ZAO. I will, upon request, execute and deliver any additional documents deemed by Purchaser or the U.S. Tender Agent to be necessary or desirable to complete the sale, assignment and transfer of the Shares represented by the ADSs tendered by this ADS Letter of Transmittal and take any and all steps necessary to ensure that there are no liens, restrictions, charges or

3



encumbrances upon the tendered ADSs or Shares representing such ADSs. I have received a copy of, and I agree to all of the terms of, the U.S. Offer to Purchase and the U.S. Offer described therein.

        The name(s) and address(es) of the registered holder(s) are printed above as they appear on the register maintained by the ADS Depositary and the Receipts representing ADSs, if applicable. The number of ADSs that I wish to tender and the certificate number(s), if applicable, are indicated in the appropriate boxes above or, in the event that I left such information blank, I wish to tender all my ADSs.

        Unless I have otherwise indicated by completing the box entitled "Special Payment Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions," as applicable, I hereby direct that the consideration for my ADSs be delivered to the address shown below my signature.

        If I have submitted Receipts for more ADSs than I wish to tender, unless I have otherwise indicated by completing the box entitled "Special Payment Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions," as applicable, I hereby direct that Receipts evidencing any ADSs that are not tendered or not accepted for payment should be issued in the name of the undersigned, if applicable, and delivered to the address shown below my signature at Purchaser's expense as promptly as practicable following the expiration date of the U.S. Offer.

        I understand that if I decide to tender ADSs, and Purchaser accepts such ADSs for payment, this will constitute a binding agreement between me and Purchaser, subject to the terms set forth in the U.S. Offer.

        All authority conferred in or agreed to be conferred in this ADS Letter of Transmittal will survive my death or incapacity, and any obligation of mine under this ADS Letter of Transmittal will be binding upon my heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives, trustees in bankruptcy, legal representatives, successors and assigns. Except as stated in the U.S. Offer to Purchase, this tender is irrevocable.

        1.    Guarantee of Signatures.    All signatures on this ADS Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed by a bank, broker, dealer, credit union, savings association or other entity that is a member in good standing of the Securities Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the New York Stock Exchange, Inc. Medallion Program or the Stock Exchange Medallion Program or any other "eligible guarantor institution" as defined in Rule 17Ad-15 of the Exchange Act (each an "Eligible Institution" and collectively, "Eligible Institutions"), unless (i) this ADS Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered owner(s) of ADSs tendered hereby and such holder(s) has not completed the boxes entitled "Special Payment Instructions" or (ii) such ADSs are tendered for the account of an Eligible Institution. See Instruction 6.

        2.    Delivery of ADS Letter of Transmittal and Receipts.    This ADS Letter of Transmittal is to be used for the tender of ADSs into the U.S. Offer by holders of ADSs held in registered form (i.e., held directly on the books of the ADS Depositary) and is to be forwarded herewith pursuant to the procedure set forth in the U.S. Offer to Purchase under "The Offer—Section 4—Procedures for Tendering ADSs." A properly completed and duly executed ADS Letter of Transmittal and any other documents required by this ADS Letter of Transmittal, together with Receipts evidencing all physically tendered ADSs in the event you hold ADSs in physical certificated form, must be received by the U.S. Tender Agent at its address set forth herein prior to 12:00 p.m. noon, New York City time, on the expiration date of the U.S. Offer. If Receipts evidencing tendered ADSs are forwarded to the U.S. Tender Agent in multiple deliveries, a properly completed and duly executed ADS Letter of Transmittal must accompany each such delivery.

        The method of delivery of this ADS Letter of Transmittal, Receipts evidencing ADSs, if applicable, and all other required documents is at the option and risk of the tendering ADS holder, and the delivery will be deemed made only when actually received by the U.S. Tender Agent. If delivery is by mail, registered mail with return receipt requested, properly insured, is recommended. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to ensure timely delivery.

        No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders will be accepted, and no fractional ADSs will be purchased or accepted. By execution of this ADS Letter of Transmittal, all tendering holders of ADSs waive any right to receive any notice of the acceptance of their ADSs for purchase.

        3.    Inadequate Space.    If the space provided herein under "Description of ADSs Tendered" is inadequate, the number of ADSs tendered and the certificate number(s), if applicable, should be listed on a separate schedule and attached hereto.

        4.    Partial Tenders.    If fewer than all of the ADSs held by a registered holder of ADSs (i.e., held directly on the books of the Depositary) and, if applicable, ADSs represented by the Receipts, delivered herewith to the U.S. Tender Agent are to be tendered, fill in the number of ADSs that are to be tendered in the box entitled "Number of ADSs Tendered." In the event you are a registered holder of ADSs holding ADSs in physical certificated form, a new Receipt representing the remainder of the ADSs that were represented by Receipts will be sent to the person(s) signing this ADS Letter of Transmittal, unless otherwise provided in the appropriate box on this ADS Letter of Transmittal as promptly as practicable after the expiration or termination of the U.S. Offer. All ADSs held in registered form directly on the books of the ADS Depositary by a holder delivering this ADS Letter of

8



Transmittal, together with any Receipts evidencing ADSs, if applicable, to the U.S. Tender Agent will be deemed to have been tendered unless otherwise indicated.

        5.    Signatures on the ADS Letter of Transmittal, Stock Powers and Endorsements.    If this ADS Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered owner(s) of the ADSs tendered hereby, the signature(s) must correspond with the name(s) as written on the face of the Receipt evidencing such ADSs without alteration, enlargement or any other change whatsoever. DO NOT SIGN THE BACK OF THE RECEIPTS.

        If any ADS tendered hereby is owned of record by two or more persons, all such persons must sign this ADS Letter of Transmittal.

        If any of the tendered ADSs are registered in the names of different holders, it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate ADS Letters of Transmittal as there are different registrations of such ADSs.

        If this ADS Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered owner(s) of the ADSs tendered hereby, no endorsements of certificates or separate stock powers are required, unless payment is to be made to, or Receipts for ADSs not tendered are to be issued in the name of, a person other than the registered owner(s), in which case, the certificate(s) representing the ADSs tendered hereby must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered owner(s) appear on such certificate(s). Signatures on such certificate(s) and stock powers must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

        If this ADS Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered owner(s) of the ADSs tendered hereby, the certificate(s) representing ADSs tendered hereby, if applicable, must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered owner(s) appear(s) on such certificate(s). Signatures on such certificate(s) and stock powers must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

        If this ADS Letter of Transmittal or any certificate or stock power is signed by a trustee, executor, administrator, guardian, attorney-in-fact, officer of a corporation or other person acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such person should so indicate when signing, and proper evidence satisfactory to Purchaser of such person's authority to so act must be submitted.

        6.    Special Payment Instructions/Special Delivery Instructions.    If the consideration for tendered ADSs, and, if appropriate, certificates for ADSs not tendered or accepted for payment, is to be issued or delivered to someone other than the person(s) signing this ADS Letter of Transmittal or to the person(s) signing this ADS Letter of Transmittal but at an address other than that shown in the box entitled "Description of ADSs Tendered" herein, the box entitled "Special Payment Instructions" or "Special Delivery Instructions," as applicable, must be completed.

        In the event the aggregate amount of ADSs tendered into the U.S. Offer is not a multiple of four, the Tender Agent will transfer the one to three additional ADSs, which do not represent a fully underlying Share, to Purchaser and such ADSs will not be tendered into the Russian Offer, but instead will be delivered to Purchaser's account. Purchaser will, nonetheless, pay the same price and in the same manner for the one to three additional ADSs as it is paying for all other tendered ADSs.

        7.    Requests for Assistance or Additional Copies.    Questions and requests for assistance or for additional copies of the U.S. Offer to Purchase and this ADS Letter of Transmittal, may be directed to Innisfree M&A Incorporated (the "U.S. Information Agent"), at its telephone numbers and address set forth below. You may also contact your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee for assistance concerning the U.S. Offer.

        8.    Conditions.    There are no conditions of the U.S. Offer and, as a result, all ADSs validly tendered and not withdrawn will be accepted.

        9.    Lost, Destroyed or Stolen Certificates.    If any Receipt representing ADSs has been lost, destroyed or stolen, the holder(s) should promptly notify the U.S. Tender Agent in order to obtain a replacement Receipt(s). The holder of ADSs will then be instructed as to the steps that must be taken in order to replace the Receipt(s). If you hold Receipts, this ADS Letter of Transmittal and related documents cannot be processed until the procedures for replacing mutilated, lost, destroyed or stolen Receipts evidencing ADSs have been completed.

        10.    Holders of WBD Shares Not Represented by ADSs.    Holders of Shares may not accept the U.S. Offer in respect of such Shares pursuant to this ADS Letter of Transmittal, except insofar as those Shares are represented by ADSs.

9


        11.    No Interest; Foreign Exchange Currency.    Under no circumstances will interest be paid on the purchase of ADSs tendered, regardless of any delay in making the purchase or extension of the expiration date for the U.S. Offer. Tendering ADS holders will receive the U.S. Offer price of 970.925 Russian rubles per ADS, without interest, payable in U.S. dollars as converted during the period it takes to complete the conversion following receipt of the Russian ruble payment by the U.S. Tender Agent. The Russian rubles will be converted to U.S. dollars at the spot market conversion rates available to the ADS Depositary during that period and paid to tendering ADS holders using the weighted average of the conversion rates, less fees under the ADS depositary agreement of $0.05 per tendered ADS for cancellations, $0.02 per tendered ADS for cash distributions and applicable taxes and other governmental charges, if any. PepsiCo will pay the ADS Depositary's expenses associated with the re-registration and transfer of tendered ADSs and Shares represented by tendered ADSs, if any. For further information, see "The Offer—Section 3—Acceptance for Payment and Payment" in the U.S. Offer to Purchase.

        12.    Expiration Date.    The expiration date of the U.S. Offer will be 12:00 p.m. noon, New York City time, on Monday, May 16, 2011. Purchaser does not expect to extend the expiration date of the U.S. Offer.

        If Purchaser decides to extend the U.S. Offer (in accordance with applicable law), Purchaser will notify the U.S. Tender Agent by written notice or oral notice confirmed in writing and make an announcement to that effect no later than the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date of the U.S. Offer. During any such extension, any ADSs validly tendered and not properly withdrawn will remain subject to the U.S. Offer, subject to the right of each holder to withdraw ADSs already tendered.

        Subject to the requirements of the Russian mandatory tender offer rules and the U.S. federal securities laws (including U.S. federal securities laws which require that material changes to an offer be promptly disseminated to shareholders in a manner reasonably designed to inform them of such changes) and without limiting the manner in which Purchaser may choose to make any public announcement, Purchaser will have no obligation to communicate any public announcement other than as described above.

        13.    No Guaranteed Delivery.    Purchaser is not providing for a guaranteed delivery procedure; therefore, you may not accept the U.S. Offer by delivery of a notice of guaranteed delivery. The only method for accepting the U.S. Offer is the procedure described above and in the U.S. Offer to Purchase under "The Offer—Section 4—Procedure for Tendering ADSs."

        14.    Stock Transfer Taxes.    Except as otherwise provided in this Instruction 14, Purchaser will pay any stock transfer taxes with respect to the sale and transfer of any ADSs to it or its order pursuant to the U.S. Offer. If, however, payment of the purchase price is to be made to, or ADSs not tendered or not accepted for payment are to be returned in the name of, any person other than the registered holder(s), or if a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the sale or transfer of ADSs to the Purchaser pursuant to the U.S. Offer, then the amount of any stock transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered holder(s), such other person or otherwise) will be deducted from the purchase price unless satisfactory evidence of the payment of such taxes, or exemption therefrom, is submitted herewith.

        15.    Backup Withholding.    This disclosure is limited to the federal tax issues addressed herein. Additional issues may exist that are not addressed in this disclosure and that could affect the federal tax treatment of the U.S. Offer. The tax disclosure was written in connection with the promotion or marketing of the U.S. Offer, and it cannot be used by any holder for the purpose of avoiding penalties that may be asserted against the holder under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Holders should seek their own advice based on their particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

        Federal income tax law imposes "backup withholding" unless a surrendering U.S. holder, and, if applicable, each other payee, has provided such holder's or payee's correct taxpayer identification number ("TIN") which, in the case of a holder or payee who is an individual, is his or her social security number, and certain other information, or otherwise establishes a basis for exemption from backup withholding. Completion of the attached Substitute Form W-9 should be used by U.S. holders for this purpose. If the ADS Depositary is not provided with the correct TIN, the holder or payee may be subject to a $50 penalty imposed by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS"). Exempt holders and payees (including, among others, certain non-U.S. persons) are not subject to these backup withholding and information reporting requirements, provided that they properly demonstrate their eligibility for exemption. Exempt U.S. holders should furnish their TIN, write "EXEMPT" in Part II of the attached Substitute Form W-9, and sign, date and return the Substitute Form W-9 to the ADS Depositary. In order for a non-U.S. holder to qualify as an exempt recipient, that non-U.S. holder should submit the appropriate

10



IRS Form W-8 (which is available from the Internal Revenue Service at www.irs.gov/formspubs/index.html) signed under penalties of perjury, attesting to that non-U.S. holder's foreign status.

        Failure to complete the Substitute Form W-9 or appropriate IRS Form W-8 may require the ADS Depositary to withhold 28% (or such other rate specified by the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) of the amount of any payments made pursuant to the U.S. Offer. Backup withholding is not an additional federal income tax. Rather, the federal income tax liability of a person subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

        A U.S. holder (or other payee) should write "Applied For" in the space for the TIN provided on the attached Substitute Form W-9 and must also complete the above "Certificate of Awaiting Taxpayer Identification Number" if such U.S. holder (or other payee) has not been issued a TIN and has applied for a TIN or intends to apply for a TIN in the near future.

Exempt payees should file the Substitute Form W-9 to avoid possible erroneous backup withholding. FURNISH YOUR TAXPAYER IDENTIFICATION NUMBER, WRITE "EXEMPT" ON THE FACE OF THE FORM IN PART II, SIGN AND DATE THE FORM, AND RETURN IT TO THE PAYER. Foreign payees who are not subject to backup withholding should complete the appropriate IRS Form W-8 and return it to the payer.

Privacy Act Notice

Section 6109 of the Code requires most recipients of dividend, interest or other payments to give their correct taxpayer identification numbers to payers who must report the payments to the IRS. The IRS uses the numbers for identification purposes and to help verify the accuracy of tax returns. It may also provide this information to the Department of Justice for civil and criminal litigation, and to cities, states, the District of Columbia and U.S. possessions to carry out their tax laws. It may also disclose this information to other countries under a tax treaty, to federal and state agencies to enforce federal nontax criminal laws, and to federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat terrorism.

Payees must provide payers with their taxpayer identification numbers whether or not they are required to file tax returns. Payers must generally withhold 28% of taxable interest, dividend and certain other payments to a payee who does not furnish a taxpayer identification number to a payer. Certain penalties may also apply.

Penalties

(1) Penalty for Failure to Furnish Taxpayer Identification Number—If you fail to furnish your correct taxpayer identification number to a payer, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.

(2) Civil Penalty for False Information With Respect to Withholding—If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis which results in no imposition of backup withholding, you are subject to a penalty of $500.

(3) Criminal Penalty for Falsifying Information—Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.
