PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

The Coca-Cola Company is the largest manufacturer, distributor and marketer of nonalcoholic beverage concentrates and syrups in the world. Finished beverage products bearing our trademarks, sold in the United States since 1886, are now sold in more than 200 countries and include the leading soft drink products in most of these countries. When used in this report, the terms "Company," "we," "us" or "our" mean The Coca-Cola Company and its divisions and subsidiaries.

Our business is nonalcoholic beverages -- principally soft drinks (1) but also a variety of noncarbonated beverages.(2) We manufacture beverage concentrates and syrups, as well as some finished beverages, which we sell to bottling and canning operations, distributors, fountain wholesalers and some fountain retailers. We also market and distribute juices and juice drinks and certain water products. In addition, we have ownership interests in numerous bottling and canning operations.

We were incorporated in September 1919 under the laws of the State of Delaware and succeeded to the business of a Georgia corporation with the same name that had been organized in 1892.

Our Company is one of numerous competitors in the commercial beverages market. Of the approximately 50 billion beverage servings of all types consumed worldwide every day, beverages bearing our trademarks ("Company Trademark Beverages") account for more than 1.2 billion.

We believe that our success depends on our ability to connect with consumers by creating brands they love. It further depends on the capacity of our people, together with our bottling partners, to find new and appealing ways to deliver those brands to thirsty people everywhere. Our Company has adopted an approach to its business that is based on the following strategic priorities:

- Accelerate carbonated soft-drink growth, led by Coca-Cola
- Selectively broaden our family of beverage brands to drive profitable growth
- Grow system profitability and capability together with our bottling partners
- Serve customers with creativity and consistency to generate growth across all channels
- Direct investments to highest-potential areas across markets
- Drive efficiency and cost effectiveness everywhere

The Company's operating structure includes the following operating segments, the first five of which are also sometimes referred to as strategic business units:

- North America
- Africa
- Europe, Eurasia and Middle East
- Latin America - Asia
- Corporate

This structure is the basis for our Company's internal financial reporting. The North America segment includes the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. Effective January 1, 2001, the Company's operating segments were


(1) As used in this report, the term "soft drinks" means nonalcoholic carbonated beverages containing flavorings and sweeteners, excluding waters, flavored waters and carbonated or noncarbonated teas, coffees and sports drinks.

(2) As used in this report, the term "noncarbonated beverages" means nonalcoholic noncarbonated beverages including, but not limited to, waters and flavored waters, juices and juice-based beverages, sports drinks, and teas and coffees.

geographically reconfigured and renamed. At that time, Puerto Rico was added to the North America segment from the Latin America segment. The Middle East Division was added to the Europe and Eurasia segment, which changed its name to the Europe, Eurasia and Middle East segment. At the same time, the Africa and Middle East segment, less the reclassified Middle East Division, changed its name to the Africa segment. During the first quarter of 2001, the Asia Pacific segment was renamed the Asia segment. During the first quarter of 2002, the Egypt Region was reclassified from the Europe, Eurasia and Middle East segment to the Africa segment.

At the date of this report, the heads of the strategic business units are as follows: Alexander B. Cummings, Jr. (Africa), Mary E. Minnick (Asia), A.R.C. "Sandy" Allan (Europe, Eurasia and Middle East), Jose Octavio Reyes (Latin America) and Jeffrey T. Dunn (North America). See "Item X. -- Executive Officers of the Company." The heads of the strategic business units report to Steven J. Heyer, President and Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Steven J. Heyer reports to Douglas N. Daft, Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer of the Company.

Except to the extent that differences between operating segments are material to an understanding of our business taken as a whole, the description of our business in this report is presented on a consolidated basis.

In the following table, prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Information about our Company's operations for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, by operating segment, is as follows (in millions):

For additional financial information about our operating segments and geographic areas, see Notes 1 and 20 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, set forth on pages 77-81 and 104-106, respectively, of our Annual Report to Share Owners for the year ended December 31, 2002, incorporated herein by reference.

Our Company manufactures and sells soft drink and noncarbonated beverage concentrates (sometimes referred to as beverage bases) and syrups, including fountain syrups. We also manufacture and sell some finished beverages, both carbonated and noncarbonated, including certain juice and juice-drink products and water products.

Syrups are composed of sweetener, water and flavoring concentrate. We sell the concentrates and syrups for bottled and canned beverages to authorized bottling and canning operations. In addition to concentrates and syrups for soft drink products and flavored noncarbonated beverages, we also sell concentrates for purified water products such as Dasani to authorized bottling operations.

2

The bottlers or canners of soft-drink products either combine the syrup with carbonated water or combine the concentrate with sweetener, water and carbonated water to produce finished soft drinks. The finished soft drinks are packaged in authorized containers bearing our trademarks -- such as cans, refillable and non-refillable glass and plastic bottles -- and are then sold to retailers or, in some cases, wholesalers. Principally in the United States, we manufacture fountain syrups and sell these to authorized fountain wholesalers and some fountain retailers. (Outside the United States, fountain syrups typically are manufactured by authorized bottlers from concentrates sold to them by the Company.) Authorized fountain wholesalers (including certain authorized bottlers) sell fountain syrups to fountain retailers. The fountain retailers use dispensing equipment to mix the syrup with carbonated or still water and then sell finished soft drinks or noncarbonated beverages to consumers in cups and glasses.

Finished beverages manufactured by us comprise a variety of carbonated and noncarbonated beverages. Most of these finished beverages are sold by us to authorized bottlers or distributors, who in turn sell these products to retailers or, in some cases, wholesalers. Both directly and through a network of business partners, including certain Coca-Cola bottlers, Company-manufactured juice and juice-drink products and certain water products are sold by us to retailers and wholesalers in the United States and numerous other countries.

The Company's beverage products include bottled and canned beverages produced by independent and Company-owned bottling and canning operations, as well as concentrates, syrups and some non-ready-to-drink powder products. Our beverage products include Coca-Cola, Coca-Cola classic, caffeine free Coca-Cola, caffeine free Coca-Cola classic, diet Coke (sold under the trademark Coca-Cola light in many countries other than the United States), caffeine free diet Coke, diet Coke with lemon, Vanilla Coke, diet Vanilla Coke, Cherry Coke, diet Cherry Coke, Fanta brand soft drinks, Sprite, diet Sprite (sold under the trademark Sprite light in many countries other than the United States), Mr. Pibb, Mello Yello, TAB, Fresca, Barq's root beer and other flavors, Citra, POWERade, Fruitopia, Minute Maid flavors, Aquarius, Sokenbicha, Ciel, Bonaqa, Dasani, Lift, Thums Up, Kinley, Pop, Kuat, Qoo and other products developed for specific countries, including Georgia brand ready-to-drink coffees, and numerous other brands. In many countries (excluding the United States, among others) our Company's beverage products also include Schweppes, Canada Dry, Dr Pepper and Crush. Our Company produces, distributes and markets juice and juice-drink products, including Minute Maid products, Simply Orange orange juice, Odwalla and Samantha super premium juices and drinks, Five Alive refreshment beverages, Bacardi tropical fruit mixers (manufactured and marketed under a license from Bacardi & Company Limited), and Hi-C ready-to-serve fruit drinks. Beverage Partners Worldwide, the Company's 50% owned joint venture with Nestle S.A., markets ready-to-drink teas and coffees in certain countries. Our Company is the exclusive master distributor of Evian bottled water in the United States and Canada. In addition, CCDA Waters, L.L.C., a 51% owned consolidated subsidiary, has a license for the use of the Dannon and Sparkletts water brands in the United States.

Consumer demand determines the optimal menu of Company product offerings. Consumer demand can vary from one locale to another and can change over time within a single locale. Employing our business strategy, and with special focus on Coca-Cola, our Company seeks to build its existing brands and, at the same time, to broaden its historical family of brands, products and services in order to create and satisfy consumer demand locale by locale.

Our Company introduced a variety of new brands and products during 2002. Vanilla Coke was rolled out initially in the United States and Canada, commencing in May. In October, diet Vanilla Coke was introduced in the same two countries. Vanilla Coke also was introduced in other markets including Australia, New Zealand and Nordic markets during 2002, with more countries planning launches for 2003. Diet Coke with lemon/Coca-Cola light with lemon was rolled out in 20 new international markets. Among other new product introductions, Love Body diet tea was introduced in Japan.

During 2002, we acquired certain brands or license rights for brands. These included Risco water in Mexico, Dorna water and Valser water in Europe, the Seagram's mixers line of soft drinks, and Rio Beverages in New Zealand.

Also during 2002, our Company broadened its collaboration with The Walt Disney Company to market noncarbonated children's beverages.

Our Company measures sales volume in two ways: (1) gallons and (2) unit cases of finished products. "Gallons" is a unit of measurement for concentrates, syrups, beverage bases, finished beverages and powders (in all cases, expressed in equivalent gallons of syrup) for all beverage products which are reportable as unit case volume. Most of our revenues are based on this measure of primarily "wholesale" activity. We also measure volume in unit cases. As used in this report, "unit case" means a unit of measurement equal to 192 U.S. fluid ounces of finished beverage (24 eight-ounce servings); and "unit case volume" of the Company means the number of unit cases (or unit case equivalents) of Company trademark or licensed beverage products directly or indirectly sold by the Coca-Cola bottling system or by the Company to customers. This volume primarily consists of beverage products bearing Company trademarks. Also included in unit case volume are certain products licensed to our Company or owned by Coca-Cola system bottlers, for which our Company provides marketing support and derives profit from the sales. Such products licensed to our Company or owned by Coca-Cola system bottlers account for a minimal portion of total unit case volume. Although most of our Company's revenues are not based directly on unit case volume, we believe unit case volume is one of the measures of the underlying strength of the Coca-Cola business system because it measures trends at the consumer level.

In 2002, concentrates and syrups for beverages bearing the trademark "Coca-Cola" or including the trademark "Coke" accounted for approximately 57% of the Company's total gallon sales.

In 2002, gallon sales in the United States ("U.S. gallon sales") represented approximately 28% of the Company's worldwide gallon sales. Approximately 59% of U.S. gallon sales for 2002 was attributable to sales of beverage concentrates and syrups to approximately 81 authorized bottler ownership groups in approximately 394 licensed territories. Those bottlers prepare and sell finished beverages bearing our trademarks for the food store and vending machine distribution channels and for other distribution channels supplying home and immediate consumption. Approximately 33% of 2002 U.S. gallon sales was attributable to fountain syrups sold to fountain retailers and to approximately 650 authorized fountain wholesalers, some of whom are authorized bottlers. These fountain wholesalers in turn sell the syrups or deliver them on the Company's behalf to restaurants and other fountain retailers. The remaining approximately 8% of 2002 U.S. gallon sales was attributable to sales by the Company of finished beverages, including juice and juice-drink products and certain water products. Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc., including its bottling subsidiaries and divisions ("Coca-Cola Enterprises"), accounted for approximately 53% of the Company's U.S. gallon sales in 2002. At December 31, 2002, our Company held an ownership interest of approximately 38% in Coca-Cola Enterprises, which is the world's largest bottler of Company Trademark Beverages.

In 2002, gallon sales outside the United States represented approximately 72% of the Company's worldwide gallon sales. In 2002, our principal markets outside the United States, based on gallon sales, were Mexico, Brazil, Japan and Germany, which together accounted for approximately 25% of our worldwide gallon sales. Approximately 90% of non-U.S. unit case volume for 2002 was attributable to sales of beverage concentrates and syrups to authorized bottlers in approximately 509 licensed territories, together with sales by the Company of finished beverages other than juice and juice-drink products. Approximately 6% of 2002 non-U.S. unit case volume was attributable to fountain syrups. The remaining approximately 4% of 2002 non-U.S. unit case volume was attributable to juice and juice-drink products.

In addition to conducting its own independent advertising and marketing activities, our Company may provide promotional and marketing services and/or funds and consultation to its bottlers and to fountain and bottle/can retailers. In most cases we do this on a discretionary basis, under the terms of commitment letters or agreements, even though we are not obligated to do so under the terms of the bottling or distribution agreements between our Company and the bottlers. Also on a discretionary basis, in most cases, the Company may develop and introduce new products, packages and equipment to assist its bottlers, fountain syrup wholesalers and fountain beverage retailers. The aggregate amount of funds provided by our Company to bottlers, resellers, vendors or customers of our Company's products, principally including participation in sales promotion programs and volume-based incentives, was approximately $3.4 billion in 2002.

The profitability of our business outside the United States is subject to many factors, including governmental laws, regulations and monetary policies, economic and political conditions in the countries in which our business is conducted, and the risk of changes in currency exchange rates and regulations.

Bottler's Agreements and Distribution Agreements

Separate contracts ("Bottler's Agreements") exist between our Company and each of its bottlers regarding the manufacture and sale of soft drinks. Subject to specified terms and conditions and certain variations, the Bottler's Agreements generally authorize the bottler to prepare particular designated Company Trademark Beverages, to package the same in particular authorized containers, and to distribute and sell the same in (but generally only in) an identified territory. The bottler is obligated to purchase its entire requirement of concentrates or syrups for the designated Company Trademark Beverages from the Company or Company-authorized suppliers. We typically agree to refrain from selling or distributing or from authorizing third parties to sell or distribute the designated Company Trademark Beverages throughout the identified territory in the particular authorized containers; however, we typically reserve for ourselves or our designee the right (i) to prepare and package such beverages in such containers in the territory for sale outside the territory and (ii) to prepare, package, distribute and sell such beverages in the territory in any other manner or form.

The Bottler's Agreements between us and our authorized bottlers in the United States differ in certain respects from those in the other countries in which Company Trademark Beverages are sold. As further discussed below, the principal differences involve the duration of the agreements; the inclusion or exclusion of canned beverage production rights; the inclusion or exclusion of authorizations to manufacture and distribute fountain syrups; in some cases, the degree of flexibility on the part of the Company to determine the pricing of syrups and concentrates; and the extent, if any, of the Company's obligation to provide marketing support.

Outside the United States. The Bottler's Agreements between us and our authorized bottlers outside the United States generally are of stated duration, subject in some cases to possible extensions or renewals of the term of the contract. Generally, these contracts are subject to termination by the Company following the occurrence of certain designated events, including defined events of default and certain changes in ownership or control of the bottler.

In certain parts of the world outside the United States, we have not granted comprehensive beverage production rights to the bottlers. In such instances, we or our designee typically sells canned (or in some cases bottled) Company Trademark Beverages to the bottlers for sale and distribution throughout the designated territory under distribution agreements, often on a non-exclusive basis. A majority of the Bottler's Agreements in force between us and bottlers outside the United States authorize the bottler to manufacture and distribute fountain syrups, usually on a non-exclusive basis.

Our Company generally has complete flexibility to determine the price and other terms of sale of concentrates and syrups we sell to bottlers outside the United States. In some instances, we have agreed or may in the future agree with the bottler with respect to concentrate pricing on a prospective basis for specified time periods. Outside the United States, in most cases we have no obligation to provide marketing support to the bottlers. Nevertheless, we may, in our discretion, contribute towards bottler expenditures for advertising and marketing. We may also elect to undertake independent or cooperative advertising and marketing activities.

Within the United States. In the United States, with certain very limited exceptions, the Bottler's Agreements for Coca-Cola and other cola-flavored beverages have no stated expiration date. Our standard contracts for other soft drink flavors and for noncarbonated beverages are of stated duration, subject to bottler renewal rights. The Bottler's Agreements in the United States are subject to termination by the Company for nonperformance or upon the occurrence of certain defined events of default which may vary from contract to contract. The so-called "1987 Contract," described below, is terminable by the Company upon the occurrence of certain events including:

- the bottler's insolvency, dissolution, receivership or the like;
- any disposition by the bottler or any of its subsidiaries of any voting securities of any bottler subsidiary without the consent of the Company;
- any material breach of any obligation of the bottler under the 1987 Contract; or
- except in the case of certain bottlers, if a person or affiliated group acquires or obtains any right to acquire beneficial ownership of more than 10% of any class or series of voting securities of the bottler without authorization by the Company.

Under the terms of the Bottler's Agreements, bottlers in the United States are authorized to manufacture and distribute Company Trademark Beverages in bottles and cans. However, these bottlers generally are not authorized to manufacture fountain syrups. Rather, our Company manufactures and sells fountain syrups to approximately 650 authorized fountain wholesalers (including certain authorized bottlers) and some fountain retailers. The wholesalers in turn sell the syrups or deliver them on our behalf to restaurants and other retailers. The wholesaler typically acts pursuant to a non-exclusive letter of appointment which neither restricts the pricing of fountain syrups by us nor the territory in which the wholesaler may resell in the United States.

In the United States, the form of Bottler's Agreement for cola-flavored soft drinks that covers the largest amount of U.S. volume (the "1987 Contract") gives us complete flexibility to determine the price and other terms of sale of soft drink concentrates and syrups for cola-flavored Company Trademark Beverages ("Coca-Cola Trademark Beverages") and other Company Trademark Beverages. In some instances, we have agreed or may in the future agree with the bottler with respect to concentrate pricing on a prospective basis for specified time periods. Bottlers operating under the 1987 Contract accounted for approximately 88% of our Company's total United States gallon sales for bottled and canned beverages, excluding direct sales by the Company of juice and juice-drink products and other finished beverages ("U.S. bottle/can gallon sales") in 2002. Certain other forms of U.S. Bottler's Agreements, entered into prior to 1987, provide for soft drink concentrates or syrups for certain Coca-Cola Trademark Beverages to be priced pursuant to a stated formula. The oldest such form of contract, applicable to bottlers accounting for approximately 1% of U.S. bottle/can gallon sales in 2002, provides for a fixed price for Coca-Cola syrup used in bottles and cans. This price is subject to quarterly adjustments to reflect changes in the quoted price of sugar. Bottlers accounting for the remaining approximately 11% of U.S. bottle/can gallon sales in 2002 have contracts for certain Coca-Cola Trademark Beverages with pricing formulas generally providing for a baseline price. This baseline price may be adjusted periodically by the Company, up to a maximum indexed ceiling price, and is adjusted quarterly based upon changes in certain sugar or sweetener prices, as applicable.

We have standard contracts with bottlers in the United States for the sale of concentrates and syrups for non-cola-flavored soft drinks and certain noncarbonated beverages in bottles and cans; and in certain cases for the sale of finished noncarbonated beverages in bottles and cans. All of these standard contracts give the Company complete flexibility to determine the price and other terms of sale.

Under the 1987 Contract and most of our other standard soft drink and noncarbonated beverage contracts with bottlers in the United States, our Company has no obligation to participate with bottlers in expenditures for advertising and marketing. Nevertheless, in our discretion we may contribute toward such expenditures and undertake independent or cooperative advertising and marketing activities. Some U.S. Bottler's Agreements that pre-date the 1987 Contract impose certain marketing obligations on us with respect to certain Company Trademark Beverages.

The Company's ability to exercise its contractual flexibility to determine the price and other terms of sale of its syrups, concentrates, and finished beverages under various agreements described above is, both outside and within the United States, subject to competitive market conditions.

Significant Equity Investments and Company Bottling Operations

Our Company maintains business relationships with three types of bottlers:
(1) independently owned bottlers, in which the Company has no ownership interest; (2) bottlers in which the Company has invested and has a noncontrolling ownership interest; and (3) bottlers in which the Company has invested and has a controlling ownership interest. In 2002, independently owned bottling operations produced and distributed approximately 23% of our worldwide unit case volume. We have equity positions in 53 unconsolidated bottling, canning and distribution operations for our products worldwide. These cost or equity method investees produced and distributed approximately 59% of our worldwide unit case volume in 2002. Controlled and consolidated bottling operations produced and distributed approximately 8% of our worldwide unit case volume in 2002. Fountain operations and The Minute Maid Company (a global division with operations primarily in the United States and Canada) produced and distributed the remaining approximately 10% of our worldwide unit case volume in 2002.

We make equity investments in selected bottling operations with the intention of maximizing the strength and efficiency of the Coca-Cola system's production, distribution and marketing systems around the world. These

6

investments are intended to result in increases in unit case volume, net revenues, and profits at the bottler level, which in turn generate increased gallon sales for our Company's concentrate business. When this occurs, both we and the bottlers benefit from long-term growth in volume, improved cash flows and increased share-owner value.

The level of our investment generally depends on the bottler's capital structure and its available resources at the time of the investment. Historically, in certain situations, we have viewed it as advantageous to acquire a controlling interest in a bottling operation, often on a temporary basis. Owning such a controlling interest has allowed us to compensate for limited local resources and has enabled us to help focus the bottler's sales and marketing programs and assist in the development of the bottler's business and information systems and the establishment of appropriate capital structures.

In line with our long-term bottling strategy, we may periodically consider options for reducing our ownership interest in a bottler. One such option is to combine our bottling interests with the bottling interests of others to form strategic business alliances. Another option is to sell our interest in a bottling operation to one of our equity investee bottlers. In both of these situations, our Company continues to participate in the bottler's results of operations through its share of the equity investee's earnings or losses.

In cases where our investments in bottlers represent noncontrolling interests, our intention is to provide expertise and resources to strengthen those businesses.

Significant investees that we account for by the equity method include the following:

Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc. Our ownership interest in Coca-Cola Enterprises was approximately 38% at December 31, 2002. Coca-Cola Enterprises is the world's largest bottler of the Company's beverage products. In 2002, net sales of concentrates and syrups by the Company to Coca-Cola Enterprises were approximately $4.3 billion. Coca-Cola Enterprises also purchases high-fructose corn syrup through the Company; however, related collections from Coca-Cola Enterprises and payments to suppliers are not included in the Company's consolidated statements of income.

Coca-Cola FEMSA, S.A. de C.V. ("Coca-Cola FEMSA"). At December 31, 2002, our Company owned a 30% equity interest in Coca-Cola FEMSA, a Mexican holding company with bottling subsidiaries in the Valley of Mexico, Mexico's southeastern region and greater Buenos Aires, Argentina. Coca-Cola FEMSA estimates that the territories in which it markets beverage products contain approximately 30% of the population of Mexico and approximately 31% of the population of Argentina.

In 2002, Coca-Cola FEMSA's net sales of beverage products were approximately U.S.$1.7 billion.

In December 2002, it was announced that Coca-Cola FEMSA has reached a definitive agreement to acquire Panamco in a merger transaction expected to close in the first half of 2003. Completion of this transaction is subject to approval by Panamco's share owners, regulatory approvals and other closing conditions. Immediately following completion of the merger, our Company would no longer directly own an equity interest in Panamco, and our Company's equity interest in Coca-Cola FEMSA would increase from 30% to approximately 40%.

Other Interests. We own a 50% interest in a joint venture with Nestle S.A. ("Nestle") and certain of its subsidiaries which is focused upon the ready-to-drink tea and coffee businesses. The joint venture, known as Beverage Partners Worldwide ("BPW"), currently has sales in the United States and approximately 45 other countries. BPW serves as the exclusive vehicle through which our Company and Nestle participate in the ready-to-drink tea and coffee business, except in Japan. BPW markets ready-to-drink tea products under the Nestea, Belte, Yang Guang, Nagomi and Tey trademarks, and ready-to-drink coffee products under the Nescafe, Taster's Choice and Georgia Club trademarks. It also operates the Mad River noncarbonated beverage business in the United States.

Other Developments

In November 2001, we entered into a Control and Profit and Loss Transfer Agreement ("CPL Agreement") with Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetraenke AG ("CCEAG"), the largest bottler in Germany. Under the terms of the CPL Agreement, our Company acquired management control of CCEAG. In November 2001, we also entered into a Pooling Agreement ("Pooling Agreement") with certain share owners of CCEAG that provided our Company with voting control of CCEAG. Both agreements became effective as of February 2002 for a term ending no later than December 31, 2006. In return for control of CCEAG, pursuant to the CPL Agreement we guaranteed annual payments, in lieu of dividends by CCEAG, to all other CCEAG share owners. Additionally, all other CCEAG share

8

owners entered into either a put or a put/call option agreement with the Company, exercisable at the end of the term of the CPL Agreement at agreed prices. At December 31, 2002, our Company's ownership interest in CCEAG was approximately 41%. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination, and the results of CCEAG's operations have been included in our Company's consolidated financial statements since February 2002.

In February 2003, CCEAG announced plans to streamline its operations and to improve efficiency in sales and distribution. Three plants operated by the bottler will be closed but will continue to operate as distribution centers. A new bottling plant for noncarbonated beverages will soon start operations in Halle. Implementation of the plan will result in a headcount reduction of approximately 900 employees.

In January 2002, our Company and Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc. ("CCBPI") acquired from RFM Corp., a Philippine food and beverage concern ("RFM"), RFM's approximately 83% ownership interest in Cosmos Bottling Corporation ("Cosmos"), a publicly traded Philippine beverage company. In March 2002, a tender offer was completed with our Company and CCBPI acquiring all shares of the remaining minority share owners except for shares representing a one percent ownership interest in Cosmos. At December 31, 2002, our direct ownership interest in Cosmos was approximately 61%, and our indirect ownership interest in Cosmos was approximately 13%. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination, and the results of Cosmos' operations have been included in our Company's consolidated financial statements since January 2002. The Company and CCBPI have agreed to restructure the operations of Cosmos, and this restructuring will result in our Company owning all acquired trademarks and CCBPI owning all acquired bottling assets. This restructuring is expected to be completed in 2003.

In April 2002, our Company entered into a master distribution agreement with Groupe Danone ("Danone") and certain subsidiaries of Danone pursuant to which our Company was appointed the exclusive master distributor of Evian bottled water in the United States and Canada effective July 1, 2002. Under this master agreement, our Company is responsible for managing market execution, sales and distribution for Evian in the United States and Canada, including the development of marketing plans, media planning and consumer and customer promotions. Danone and its subsidiaries are responsible for all global product development and brand strategy efforts for Evian, as well as providing sales and customer service support. The stated term of the master agreement is perpetual, subject to earlier termination in the event of default. Under this arrangement, Evian bottled water continues to be distributed by Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc. and other licensed Coca-Cola bottlers within the U.S. and Canada, as well as certain other existing distributors of Evian.

In July 2002, our Company and Danone Waters of North America, Inc. ("DWNA") formed a new company, CCDA Waters, L.L.C. ("CCDA"), for the production, marketing and distribution of DWNA's bottled spring and source water business in the United States. In forming CCDA, DWNA contributed assets of its retail bottled spring and source water business in the United States. These assets include five production facilities, a license for the use of the Dannon and Sparkletts brands, and ownership of several value brands. Our Company made a cash payment to acquire a controlling 51% equity interest in CCDA and is also providing marketing, distribution and management expertise. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination, and the results of CCDA's operations have been included in our Company's consolidated financial statements since July 2002. This business combination expanded our water brands to include a national offering in all sectors of the water category with purified, spring and source waters.

In January 2003, we announced that we are integrating the operations of our three separate business units in North America: Coca-Cola North America (including our interest in CCDA), The Minute Maid Company (including our Odwalla business) and Coca-Cola Fountain. Going forward, the integrated business unit will be referred to simply as Coca-Cola North America. The integration plan calls for the unification of information technology, human resources, sales, marketing, finance, legal and administrative staffs to eliminate unnecessary duplication of effort. The integration is expected to result in a headcount reduction of approximately 1,000 people, and the identification of the individuals is expected to be completed during the first quarter of 2003.

Seasonality

Sales of ready-to-drink nonalcoholic beverages are somewhat seasonal, with the second and third calendar quarters accounting for the highest sales volumes in the Northern Hemisphere. The volume of sales in the beverages business may be affected by weather conditions.

Competition

Our Company competes in the nonalcoholic beverages segment of the commercial beverages industry. Based on internally available data and a variety of industry sources, we believe that in 2002, worldwide sales of Company products comprised approximately 10% of total worldwide sales of nonalcoholic beverage products. The nonalcoholic beverages segment of the commercial beverages industry is highly competitive, consisting of numerous firms. These include firms that compete, like our Company, in multiple geographical areas as well as firms that are primarily local in operation. Competitive products include carbonates, packaged water, juices and nectars, fruit drinks and dilutables (including syrups and powdered drinks), sports and energy drinks, coffee and tea, still drinks and other beverages. Nonalcoholic beverages are sold to consumers in both ready-to-drink and not-ready-to-drink form. In many of the countries in which we do business, including the United States, PepsiCo, Inc. is a primary competitor of ours. Other significant competitors include Nestle S.A., Cadbury Schweppes plc, Groupe Danone and Kraft Foods Inc., among others.

Most of our beverages business currently is in soft drinks, as that term is defined in this report. The soft-drink business, which is part of the nonalcoholic beverages segment, is itself highly competitive. Our Company is the leading seller of soft-drink concentrates and syrups in the world. Numerous firms, however, compete in that business. These consist of a range of firms, from local to international, that compete against our Company in numerous geographical areas.

Competitive factors with respect to our business include pricing, advertising and sales promotion programs, product innovation, increased efficiency in production techniques, the introduction of new packaging, new vending and dispensing equipment and brand and trademark development and protection.

Positive aspects of our competitive position include strong brands with a high level of consumer acceptance, a worldwide network of bottlers and distributors of Company products, sophisticated marketing capabilities and a talented group of dedicated employees. Negative aspects of our competitive position include strong competition in nearly all geographies, and, in many countries, a concentrated retail sector with powerful buyers able to freely choose between Company products and those of its competitors.

Raw Materials

The principal raw material used by our business in the United States is high-fructose corn syrup, a form of sugar, which is available from numerous domestic sources and is historically subject to fluctuations in its market price. The principal raw material used by our business outside the United States is sucrose. Our Company has a specialized sweetener procurement staff and has not experienced any difficulties in obtaining its requirements. In the United States and certain other countries, we have authorized the use of high-fructose corn syrup for Coca-Cola and other Company Trademark Beverages for use in both fountain syrup and finished beverages in bottles and cans.

Generally, raw materials utilized by us in our business are readily available from numerous sources. However, aspartame, which is usually used alone or in combination with either saccharin or acesulfame potassium in our low-calorie soft-drink products, is currently purchased by us primarily from The NutraSweet Company and from Holland Sweetener. Acesulfame potassium is currently purchased from Nutrinova Nutrition Specialties & Food Ingredients GmbH.

With regard to juice and juice-drink products, the citrus industry is subject to the variability of weather conditions. This includes in particular the possibility of freezes in central Florida, which may result in higher prices and lower consumer demand for orange juice throughout the industry. Due to our long-standing relationship with a supplier of high-quality Brazilian orange juice concentrate, the supply of juice available that meets the Company's standards is normally adequate to meet demand.

10

Patents, Trade Secrets, Trademarks and Copyrights

Our Company is the owner of numerous patents, copyrights and trade secrets, as well as substantial know-how and technology, which we collectively refer to in this report as "technology." This technology generally relates to our Company's products and the processes for their production, the packages used for its products, the design and operation of various processes and equipment used in its business and certain quality assurance and financial software. Some of the technology is licensed to suppliers and other parties. Our soft-drink and other beverage formulae are among the important trade secrets of the Company.

We own numerous trademarks which are very important to our business. Depending upon the jurisdiction, trademarks are valid as long as they are in use and/or their registrations are properly maintained and they have not been found to have become generic. Registrations of trademarks can generally be renewed indefinitely as long as the trademarks are in use. The majority of our Company's trademark license agreements are included in the Company's Bottler's Agreements. The Company has registered and licenses the right to use its trademarks in conjunction with certain merchandise in addition to nonalcoholic beverages.

Governmental Regulation

Our Company is required to comply, and it is our policy to comply, with applicable laws in the numerous countries throughout the world in which we do business. In many jurisdictions, compliance with competition laws is of special importance to us, and our operations may come under special scrutiny by competition law authorities, due to our competitive position in those jurisdictions.

The production, distribution and sale in the United States of many of the Company's products are subject to the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act; the Occupational Safety and Health Act; the Lanham Act; various environmental statutes; and various other federal, state and local statutes and regulations applicable to the production, transportation, sale, safety, advertising, labeling and ingredients of such products.

A California law requires that a specific warning appear on any product that contains a component listed by the State as having been found to cause cancer or birth defects. The law exposes all food and beverage producers to the possibility of having to provide warnings on their products. This is because the law recognizes no generally applicable quantitative thresholds below which a warning is not required. Consequently, even trace amounts of listed components can expose affected products to the prospect of warning labels. Products containing listed substances that occur naturally in the product or that are contributed to the product solely by a municipal water supply are generally exempt from the warning requirement. No Company beverage products are currently required to display warnings under this law. However, we are unable to predict whether an important component of a Company product might be added to the California list in the future. We are also unable to predict whether or to what extent a warning under this law would have an impact on costs or sales of Company beverage products.

Bottlers of our beverage products presently offer non-refillable, recyclable containers in all areas of the United States and Canada. Some of these bottlers also offer refillable containers, which are also recyclable. Measures have been enacted in various localities and states which require that a deposit be charged for certain non-refillable beverage containers. The precise requirements imposed by these measures vary. Other deposit, recycling or product stewardship proposals have been introduced in various jurisdictions. We anticipate that similar legislation or regulations may be proposed in the future at the local, state and federal levels, both in the United States and elsewhere.

All of our Company's facilities in the United States are subject to federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations. Compliance with these provisions has not had, and we do not expect such compliance to have, any material adverse effect upon our Company's capital expenditures, net income or competitive position.

11

Employees

As of December 31, 2002, our Company employed approximately 56,000 persons, compared to approximately 38,000 at the end of 2001. The increase in the number of employees was primarily due to acquisitions made during 2002, including the acquisitions of our interests in Cosmos and CCDA, plus the consolidation of CCEAG. At the end of 2002, approximately 10,900 Company employees were located in the United States.

Our Company, through its divisions and subsidiaries, has entered into numerous collective bargaining agreements. We have no reason to believe that we will not be able to renegotiate any such agreements on satisfactory terms. The Company believes that its relations with its employees are generally satisfactory.

Securities Exchange Act Reports

The Company maintains an Internet website at the following address:
www.coca-cola.com. We make available on or through our Internet website certain reports and amendments to those reports that we file with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Securities Exchange Act"). These include our annual reports on Form 10-K, our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and our current reports on Form 8-K. We make this information available on our website free of charge as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically file the information with, or furnish it to, the SEC.

ITEM 2. PROPERTIES

Our worldwide headquarters is located on a 35-acre office complex in Atlanta, Georgia. The complex includes the approximately 621,000 square foot headquarters building, the approximately 870,000 square foot Coca-Cola North America building and the approximately 264,000 square foot Coca-Cola Plaza building. The complex also includes several other buildings, including the technical and engineering facilities, learning center and reception center. Our Company leases approximately 250,000 square feet of office space at 10 Glenlake Parkway, Atlanta, Georgia. In addition, we lease approximately 174,000 square feet of office space at Northridge Business Park, Dunwoody, Georgia. The North America operating segment owns and occupies an office building located in Houston, Texas, that contains approximately 330,000 square feet. The Company has facilities for administrative operations, manufacturing, processing, packaging, packing, storage and warehousing throughout the United States.

As of December 31, 2002, our Company owned and operated 33 principal beverage concentrate and/or syrup manufacturing plants located throughout the world. In addition, we own or hold a majority interest in 39 operations with 103 principal beverage bottling and canning plants located outside the United States. CCDA owns four production facilities and leases one production facility. All five of these facilities are located in the United States.

The North America segment operates eight juice and juice drink production facilities located throughout the United States and Canada. The Company also owns a facility that manufactures juice concentrates for food service use. It also utilizes a system of contract packers to produce and distribute certain products in areas where the Company does not have its own manufacturing centers or during periods when it experiences shortfalls in manufacturing capacity.

Our Company owns or leases additional real estate, including a Company-owned office and retail building at 711 Fifth Avenue in New York, New York and approximately 315,000 square feet of Company-owned office and technical space in Brussels, Belgium. Additional owned or leased real estate located throughout the world is used by the Company as office space, for bottling, warehouse or retail operations or, in the case of some owned property, is leased to others.

Management believes that the Company's facilities for the production of its products are suitable and adequate, that they are being appropriately utilized in line with past experience and that they have sufficient production capacity for their present intended purposes. The extent of utilization of such facilities varies based upon the seasonal demand for product. It is not possible to measure with any degree of certainty or uniformity the productive capacity and extent of utilization of these facilities. However, management believes that additional production can be obtained at the existing facilities by the addition of personnel and capital equipment and, in some facilities, the addition of shifts of personnel or expansion of such facilities. We continuously review our anticipated requirements

12

for facilities and, on the basis of that review, may from time to time acquire additional facilities and/or dispose of existing facilities.

ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On October 27, 2000, a class action lawsuit (Carpenter's Health & Welfare Fund of Philadelphia & Vicinity v. The Coca-Cola Company, et al.) was filed in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia alleging that the Company, M. Douglas Ivester, Jack L. Stahl and James E. Chestnut violated antifraud provisions of the federal securities laws by making misrepresentations or material omissions relating to the Company's financial condition and prospects in late 1999 and early 2000. A second, largely identical lawsuit (Gaetan LaValla v. The Coca-Cola Company, et al.) was filed in the same court on November 9, 2000. The Complaints allege that the Company and the individual named officers: (1) forced certain Coca-Cola system bottlers to accept "excessive, unwanted and unneeded" sales of concentrate during the third and fourth quarters of 1999, thus creating a misleading sense of improvement in our Company's performance in those quarters; (2) failed to write down the value of impaired assets in Russia, Japan and elsewhere on a timely basis, again resulting in the presentation of misleading interim financial results in the third and fourth quarters of 1999; and (3) misrepresented the reasons for Mr. Ivester's departure from the Company and then misleadingly reassured the financial community that there would be no changes in the Company's core business strategy or financial outlook following that departure. Damages in an unspecified amount are sought in both Complaints.

On January 8, 2001, an order was entered by the United States District Court for the Northern District of Georgia consolidating the two cases for all purposes. The Court also ordered the plaintiffs to file a Consolidated Amended Complaint. On July 25, 2001, plaintiffs filed a Consolidated Amended Complaint, which largely repeated the allegations made in the original Complaints and added Douglas N. Daft as an additional defendant.

On September 25, 2001, the defendants filed a Motion to Dismiss all counts of the Consolidated Amended Complaint. On August 20, 2002, the Court granted in part and denied in part the defendants' Motion to Dismiss. The Court also granted the plaintiffs' Motion for Leave to Amend the Complaint. On September 4, 2002, the defendants filed a Motion for Partial Reconsideration of the Court's August 20, 2002 ruling. This latter Motion is currently under consideration by the Court.

On December 20, 2002, the Company filed a lawsuit (The Coca-Cola Company v. Aqua-Chem, Inc., Civil Action No. 2002CV631-50) in the Superior Court, Fulton County, Georgia (the "Georgia Case") seeking a declaratory judgment that the Company has no obligation to its former subsidiary, Aqua-Chem, Inc., for any past, present or future liabilities or expenses in connection with any claims or lawsuits against Aqua-Chem. Subsequent to the Company's filing, on the same day Aqua-Chem filed a lawsuit (Aqua-Chem, Inc. v. The Coca-Cola Company, Civil Action No. 02CV012179) in the Circuit Court, Civil Division of Milwaukee County, Wisconsin (the "Wisconsin Case"). In the Wisconsin Case, Aqua-Chem seeks a declaratory judgment that the Company is responsible for all liabilities and expenses in connection with certain of Aqua-Chem's general and product liability claims arising from occurrences prior to the Company's sale of Aqua-Chem in 1981, and a judgment for breach of contract in an amount exceeding $9 million for defense costs, expenses and settlements incurred by Aqua-Chem to date in connection with such claims.

The Company owned Aqua-Chem from 1970 to 1981. During that time frame, the Company purchased over $400 million of insurance coverage that is available to cover Aqua-Chem for certain product liability and other claims. Cleaver Brooks, an Aqua-Chem subsidiary, manufactured boilers, some of which contained asbestos gaskets. The Company sold Aqua-Chem to Lyonnaise American Holding, Inc. in 1981 under the terms of a stock sale agreement, and, following a lawsuit involving a tax dispute, entered into a settlement agreement in 1983 with Lyonnaise and Aqua-Chem. The 1981 and 1983 agreements, among other things, outlined the parties' rights and obligations concerning past and future claims and lawsuits involving Aqua-Chem.

Aqua-Chem was first named as a defendant in asbestos lawsuits in or around 1985 and, to date, has more than 100,000 claims pending against it. In October 2002, Aqua-Chem asserted that since 1985 it had incurred approximately $10 million in expenses related to these claims that were not covered by insurance. Aqua-Chem demanded that the Company reimburse these expenses pursuant to its interpretation of the terms of the 1981 and 1983 agreements. It also demanded that the Company acknowledge its continuing obligations to Aqua-Chem under

13

these agreements for any future liabilities and expenses that are excluded from coverage under the applicable insurance or for which there is no insurance. The Company disputes Aqua-Chem's interpretation of the agreements and believes it has no past, present or future obligation to Aqua-Chem in this regard. This led to the filing of the Georgia Case.

The parties have agreed to stay the Wisconsin Case pending final resolution of the Georgia Case. The parties have further agreed to a six month discovery schedule in the Georgia Case. On January 15, 2003, the court entered a consent order in the Georgia Case setting forth the agreed discovery schedule. On January 22, 2003, the Wisconsin Court entered a consent order submitted by the parties staying the Wisconsin Case.

The Company believes it has substantial legal and factual defenses to Aqua-Chem's claims and intends to vigorously prosecute the Georgia Case and defend the Wisconsin Case.

The competition authority of the European Commission made unannounced visits to the offices of the Company and of our bottling partners in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Germany and Great Britain several years ago. Similarly, the Spanish competition authorities made unannounced visits to our own offices and those of certain bottlers in Spain in September 2000. The European Commission and the Spanish competition authorities continue their investigations into unspecified market practices in their respective jurisdictions. The Company believes it has substantial legal and factual defenses in these matters.

The Company is involved in various other legal proceedings. Management of the Company believes that any liability to the Company which may arise as a result of these proceedings, including the proceedings specifically discussed above, will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company and its subsidiaries taken as a whole.

The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the Company, and with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

The Company shall indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the Company to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or is or was serving at the request of the Company, as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the Company unless and only to the extent

Page 11 of 16

To receive indemnification under this By-Law, a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company shall submit to the Company a written request, including therein or therewith such documentation and information as is reasonably available to him and reasonably necessary to determine his entitlement to indemnification. Upon receipt by the Company of a written request for indemnification, a determination, if required by applicable law, with respect to a claimant's request Any indemnification under the first two paragraphs of this Section (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the Company only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the applicable standard of conduct set forth in the first two paragraphs of this Section has been met. Such determination shall be made: (1) by the Board of Directors by a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who were not parties to such action, suit or proceedings, even though less than a quorum; or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum; or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion; or

The burden of establishing that a claimant is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article or otherwise shall be on the Company.

Section 4. Payment of Expenses. Expenses incurred in defending a civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding may shall be paid by the Company in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding within 30 days after receipt by the Company of a statement requesting payment of such expenses.

Page 12 of 16

by final judicial decision from which there is no further right to appeal, that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company as authorized by this Article.

EXHIBIT 10.10

EXECUTIVE MEDICAL PLAN OF

AS AMENDED AND RESTATED
EFFECTIVE JANUARY 1, 2001

The Coca-Cola Company (the "Plan Sponsor") adopted The Coca-Cola Company Supplemental Medical Expense Plan on May 4, 1982 (the "Plan"). On August 1, 1989, the Plan Sponsor executed a Plan Instrument effective July 1, 1982. The Plan was further amended effective January 1, 1989 by Amendment No. 1 dated August 1, 1989.

The Plan Sponsor does hereby amend and restate the Plan in its entirety, effective as of January 1, 2001. This amendment and restatement reflects the renaming of the Plan as the "Executive Medical Plan of The Coca-Cola Company" and the new Insurer for the Group Policy incorporated herein by reference.

1. Purpose

The purpose of the Plan is to provide eligible employees of the Plan Sponsor and its participating affiliates with additional financial security in the event of death or disability. An individual shall be treated as an employee under this Plan for any period only if (i) he or she is actually classified during such period by the Plan Sponsor or a participating affiliate on its payroll, personnel and benefits system as an employee, and (ii) he or she is paid for services rendered during such period through the payroll system as distinguished from the accounts payable department of the Plan Sponsor or any participating affiliate. No other individual shall be treated as an employee under this Plan for any period regardless of his or her status during such period as an employee under common law or under any statute.

The Plan Sponsor intends that the Plan constitute an "employee welfare benefit plan" under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA") and that the Plan be maintained in compliance with all applicable provisions of ERISA and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

2. Eligibility Requirements and Benefit Coverages Provided

Benefits provided under the Plan shall be provided through the purchase and maintenance of one or more Group Insurance Policies (the "Group Policy") which the officers of the Plan Sponsor are authorized to enter into with one or more insurance companies (the "Insurer") with respect to the Plan. Plan requirements respecting eligibility for participation and benefits shall be the requirements as to employees to be insured as set forth in the Group Policy. The persons entitled to benefits under the Plan shall be the employees insured as set forth in the Group Policy and their beneficiaries designated in accordance with the terms, provisions and conditions of the Group Policy. The benefits under the Plan shall be provided by the Group Policy in accordance with the terms, provisions and conditions of the Group Policy. The affiliates of the Plan Sponsor whose employees may participate in the Plan shall be those affiliates specified in the Group Policy.


3. Plan Administrator

The Director of Employee Benefits of the Plan Sponsor shall be the Plan Administrator of the Plan. The Plan Administrator may authorize any other person to sign communications and to execute documents on his or her behalf and may delegate such of his or her duties and responsibilities under the Plan as the Plan Administrator considers to be in the best interest of the Plan. The Plan Administrator may employ one or more persons to render advice with respect to any of the Plan Administrator's responsibilities under the Plan.

4. Named Fiduciary and Administration of the Plan

(a) The Plan Administrator shall have the exclusive responsibility and complete discretionary authority to control the operation and management of the Plan, with all powers necessary to enable him or her to properly carry out such responsibility, including, but not limited to, the power to construe the terms of this Plan, to determine status, coverage and eligibility for benefits (except to the extent delegated to the Insurer under Section 4(b) of the Plan), and to resolve all interpretive, equitable and other questions that shall arise in the operation and administration of the Plan. All actions and determinations made by the Plan Administrator shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons.

(b) Claims for benefits under the Plan are to be submitted to and payment of claims will be made by the Insurer as provided in the Group Policy. A claim which is denied by the Insurer shall be reviewed by the Insurer in accordance with the procedure as provided in the Group Policy, and the decision of the Insurer on any claim shall be final. The Insurer shall be the "named fiduciary" under the Plan for the purpose of such review and all decisions thereon. The Insurer's decision on any claim shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons. Except as provided in Section 4(c) of the Plan, the Insurer shall have the exclusive responsibility and complete discretionary authority to make all decisions with respect to claims, with all powers necessary to enable it to properly carry out such responsibility, including, but not limited to, the power to construe the terms of the Group Policy, to determine status, coverage and eligibility of claims, and to resolve all interpretive and other questions that shall arise while doing so. All such actions or determinations of the Insurer shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 4(b), the Plan Administrator, and not the Insurer, shall have the exclusive responsibility and complete discretionary authority to determine whether an individual has been classified on the Plan Sponsor's or a participating affiliate's payroll, personnel and benefits system for any period as its employee for purposes of this Plan and shall be the "named fiduciary" under the Plan for such purpose. All actions and determinations made by the Plan Administrator in the scope of his or her authority under the Plan shall be final, conclusive and binding on all persons.

6. Financing the Plan

All Plan benefits shall be funded through the purchase of the Group Policy; provided, however, that any payments made to or credits to the Plan Sponsor in accordance with the experience rating provisions, if any, of the Group Policy shall be the separate property of the Plan Sponsor. Eligible employees covered under the Plan shall make such contributions to the cost of the Group Policy as the Plan Administrator may require from time to time.

7. Plan Expenses

All reasonable and proper expenses incurred in administering the Plan shall be paid by the Plan unless the Plan Sponsor, in its absolute discretion, elects to pay any or all of such expenses.

8. Limitation of Rights

The Plan shall not give any employee, former employee or dependent any right or claim except to the extent that such right is specifically fixed under the terms of the Plan. Neither the establishment nor the continuance of the Plan shall be construed as giving any employee a right to be continued in the employ of the Plan Sponsor or any affiliate or as interfering with the right of the Plan Sponsor or any affiliate to terminate the employment of any employee at any time.

9. Failure of Enforcement as Waiver

The failure of the Plan Sponsor, the Plan Administrator, or the Insurer to enforce at any time any of the provisions of the Plan, or to require at any time performance of any of the provisions of the Plan, shall in no way be construed to be a waiver of such provisions, nor in any way to effect the validity of the Plan or any part thereof or the right of the Plan Sponsor, Plan Administrator, or Insurer to thereafter enforce each and every such provision.

10. Amendment and Termination of the Plan

The Plan Administrator may terminate, suspend, amend or modify the Plan in whole or part at any time for any reason (including, without limitation, to reduce or eliminate coverage for one or more groups of individuals and to change or increase at any time the amounts payable by covered persons under the Plan including, without limitation, the amounts of contributions required for Plan coverage), by written action, and any such termination, suspension, amendment or modification may be made retroactively and, further, may be made without advance notice to any person; provided, however, that no amendment to the benefit or other provisions of the Group Policy may be made without the approval of the Insurer.

11. Applicable Law

The Plan shall be construed, administered and governed in all respects under and by the laws of the State of Georgia, except to the extent that Federal law is controlling.

* A Premium Due Date.

* The date of a change in Plan benefits or provisions.

* The effective date of any change in federal laws or state regulations which affect the Company's obligations under this policy.

The Company also has the right to change the rates retroactive to the Effective Date if an Employee makes a material misrepresentation that affects the conditions under which the policy was issued.

However, the Company may not increase the rates before either of the following times, except for an increase due to a change in the number of Employees, a change in Plan, a change in federal laws or state regulations or Employee misrepresentation:

The first Policy Anniversary.

12 months after a previous increase in premium rates.

The Employer will be notified at least 60 days in advance of any increase in premium rates.

Premiums: Where and How Payable

Premium is the money paid by the Employer to the Company for insurance coverage. Premiums are paid at the Home Office or to an authorized agent of the Company. Premiums are paid in advance each month on or before the Premium Due Date except that premiums for each conversion policy or certificate issued during a calendar quarter are paid to the Company quarterly in arrears.

The first premium is due on and must be paid by the Effective Date of the policy.

Premium Computation and Adjustment

Premium Computation

Each monthly premium is calculated based on the number of enrollees, each enrollee's coverage classification the Company shows in its records at the time of the calculation and the premium rates then in effect.


The Employer shall notify the Company in writing within 30 days of the effective date of additions, terminations or other changes. The Employer shall notify the Company in writing each month of any changes in the coverage classification of any enrollee.

The Employer may notify the Company in writing to end the policy during a time for which premium has been paid. The Company will make an adjustment of the premium to the Employer for the time between the date the policy ends and the end of the period for which premium has been paid.

Retrospective Rating

Insurance under this policy is subject to retrospective experience rating. This means that the Company may at the end of any policy year retrospectively reduce, but not increase, the premium for such policy year due to claims experience. The claims experience of the class of business as a whole, of which the Employer is a part, and to the extent allowed by law, the claims experience of each Employer under this policy will be used to determine the premium rates. To the extent allowed by law, the rates may also be based on some or all of the following characteristics of the Employer: age, sex, family status, industry or occupation, size of the Employer, location of the Employer, underwriting classification, duration of coverage since underwriting, health status of covered individuals, benefit plan design, and such other factors as the Company may determine from time to time.

Grace Period

This section applies only to premiums due after the Effective Date of the policy.

If premiums are not paid by a Premium Due Date, the policy will only stay in force for 31 days. The Employer must pay premiums for the time the policy stays in force. If written notice to end the policy is given by the Employer before the end of the 31 days, an adjustment of the premium will be made.

Employee's Individual Certificate

The Company will issue Certificates of Insurance and any attachments to the Employer for delivery to each covered Employee. The certificate and any attachments will show all the benefits and provisions of the health insurance plan.

Employer's Information Reports

The Company needs certain data. It is used to figure amounts of insurance and premiums. The Employer must give the data when it is requested by the Company.


Inspection of Records by the Company

The Company has the right to inspect records of the Employer that relate to the insurance or the premiums. The Company will have this right at all reasonable times.

* This policy, including all Certificates and any attachments.

* The Employer's application,

* The Employees' applications, if there are any.

A covered person's statement can not be used in defense to a claim under the policy unless a copy of the statement has been given to the person.

Clerical Error

Clerical error shall not deprive any person of coverage under the policy or create a right to benefits. Failure to report the termination of a person's coverage shall not continue such coverage beyond the date it is scheduled to end according to the terms of the policy. Upon discovery of a clerical error, any necessary appropriate adjustment in premium shall be made. However, the Company will not make an adjustment in premium or coverage for more than 60 days of coverage prior to the date the Employer notifies the Company of such clerical error.

Modifications

No one can change the policy, any of its conditions or the Premium Due Date without the written consent of the Company.

"Eligible Expenses" - Eligible Expenses are calculated by the Company based on available data resources of competitive fees in that geographic area.

Eligible Expenses must not exceed the fees that the provider would charge any similarly situated payor for the same services.

Eligible Expenses are determined solely in accordance with Our reimbursement policy guidelines. We develop Our reimbursement policy guidelines, in Our discretion, following evaluation and validation of all provider billings in accordance with one or more of the following methodologies:

* as indicated in the most recent edition of the Current Procedural Terminology (publication of the American Medical Association);

* as reported by generally recognized professionals or publications;

* as utilized for Medicare;

* as determined by medical staff and outside medical consultants;

A. is safe with promising efficacy;

B. is provided in a clinically controlled research setting; and

C. uses a specific research protocol that meets standards equivalent to those defined by the National Institutes of Health.

SECTION 5

GENERAL PROVISIONS

Section 5.1 Entire Policy. The Policy, including the Certificate of Coverage as Attachment A, the application, Amendments and Riders, constitutes the entire Policy. All statements made by the Enrolling Group or by a Subscriber shall, in the absence of fraud, be deemed representations and not warranties.

Section 5.2 Time Limit on Certain Defenses. No statement, except a fraudulent statement, made by the Enrolling Group shall be used to void the Policy after it has been in force for a period of two years.

Section 5.3 Amendments and Alterations. Amendments to the Policy are effective upon 31 days written notice to the Enrolling Group. Riders are effective on the date specified by the Company. No change will be made to the Policy unless it is made by an Amendment or a Rider which is signed by an officer of the Company. No agent has authority to change the Policy or to waive any of its provisions.

Section 5.4 Relationship Between Parties. The relationships between the Company and providers and relationships between the company and Enrolling Groups, are solely contractual relationships between independent contractors. Network providers and Enrolling Groups are not agents or employees of the Company, nor is the Company or any employee of the Company an agent or employee of providers or Enrolling Groups.

The relationship between a provider and any Covered Person is that of provider and patient. The provider is solely responsible for the services provided to any Covered Person.

The relationship between the Enrolling Group and Covered Persons is that of employer and employee, Dependent or other Coverage classification as defined in the Policy. The Enrolling Group is solely responsible for enrollment and Coverage classification changes (including termination of a Covered Person's Coverage through the Company), for the timely payment of the Policy Charge to the Company, and for notifying Covered Persons of the termination of the Policy.

Section 5.5 Records. You must furnish the Company with all information and proofs which it may reasonably require regarding any matters pertaining to the Policy.

By accepting Coverage under the Policy, you authorize and direct any person or institution that has provided services to you, to furnish the Company any and all information and records or copies of records relating to the services provided to you. The Company has the right to request this information at any reasonable time. This applies to all Covered Persons, including Enrolled Dependents whether or not they have signed the Subscriber's enrollment form.

GP(99)

10

The Company agrees that such information and records will be considered confidential. The Company has the right to release any and all records concerning health care services which are necessary to implement and administer the terms of the Policy or for appropriate medical review or quality assessment.

The Company is permitted to charge you reasonable fees to cover costs for completing requested medical abstracts or forms which you have requested.

In some cases, the Company will designate other persons or entities to request records or information from or related to you and to release those records as necessary. The Company's designees have the same rights to this information as does the Company.

During and after the term of the Policy, the Company and its related entities may use and transfer the information gathered under the Policy for research and analytic purposes.

Section 5.6 ERISA. When the Policy is purchased by the Enrolling Group to provide benefits under a welfare plan governed by the Employee Retirement Income Security Act 29 U.S.C. [Section] 1001 et seq., the Company is not the plan administrator or named fiduciary of the welfare plan, as those terms are used in ERISA.

Section 5.7 Clerical Error. If a clerical error or other mistake occurs, that error shall not deprive you of Coverage under the Policy. A clerical error also does not create a right to benefits.

Section 5.8 Notice. When the Company provides written notice regarding administration of the Policy to an authorized representative of the Enrolling Group, that notice is deemed notice to all affected Subscribers and their Enrolled Dependents. The Enrolling Group is responsible for giving notice to Covered Persons.

Section 5.9 Workers' Compensation Not Affected. The Coverage provided under the Policy does not substitute for and does not affect any requirements for coverage by workers' compensation insurance.

Section 5.10 Conformity with Statutes. Any provision of the Policy which, on its effective date, is in conflict with the requirements of state or federal statutes or regulations (of the jurisdiction in which delivered) is hereby amended to conform to the minimum requirements of such statutes and regulations.

SECTION 6

COORDINATION OF BENEFITS

Section 6.1 Coordination of Benefits Applicability. This coordination of benefits (COB) provision applies when a person has health care coverage under

GP(99)

11

more than one Coverage Plan. "Coverage Plan" is defined below.

The order of benefit determination rules below determine which Coverage Plan will pay as the primary Coverage Plan. The primary Coverage Plan that pays first pays without regard to the possibility that another Coverage Plan may cover some expenses. A secondary Coverage Plan pays after the primary Coverage Plan and may reduce the benefits it pays so that payments from all group Coverage Plans do not exceed 100% of the total allowable expense.

Section 6.2 Definitions. For purposes of Section 6, terms are defined as follows:

A. A "Coverage Plan" is any of the following that provides benefits or services for medical or dental care or treatment. However, if separate contracts are used to provide coordinated coverage for members of a group, the separate contracts are considered parts of the same Coverage Plan and there is no COB among those separate contracts.

1. "Plan" includes: group insurance, closed panel or other forms of group or group-type coverage (whether insured or uninsured); medical care components of group long-term care contracts, such as skilled nursing care; medical benefits under group or individual automobile contracts; and Medicare or other governmental benefits, as permitted by law.

2. "Plan" does not include: individual or family insurance; closed panel or other individual coverage (except for group-type coverage); school accident type coverage; benefits for non-medical components of group long-term care policies; Medicare supplement policies, Medicaid policies and coverage under other governmental plans, unless permitted by law.

Each contract for coverage under (1) or (2) is a separate Coverage Plan. If a Coverage Plan has two parts and COB rules apply only to one of the two, each of the parts is treated as a separate Coverage Plan.

B. The order of benefit determination rules determine whether this Coverage Plan is a "primary Coverage Plan" or "secondary Coverage Plan" when compared to another Coverage Plan covering the person.

When this Coverage Plan is primary, its benefits are determined before those of any other Coverage Plan and without considering any other coverage Plan's benefits. When this Coverage Plan is secondary, its benefits are determined after those of another Coverage Plan and may be reduced because of the primary Coverage Plan's benefits.

C. "Allowable expense" means a health care service or expense, including deductibles and copayments, that is covered at least in part by any of the Coverage Plans covering the person. When a Coverage Plan provides benefits in the form of services, (for example an HMO) the reasonable

CB(99)

12

cash value of each service will be considered an allowable expense and a benefit paid. An expense or service that is not covered by any of the Coverage Plans is not an allowable expense. The following are examples of expenses or services that are not allowable expenses:

1. If a covered person is confined in a private hospital room, the difference between the cost of a semi-private room in the hospital and the private room, (unless the patient's stay in a private hospital room is medically necessary in terms of generally accepted medical practice, or one of the Coverage Plans routinely provides coverage for hospital private rooms) is not an allowable expense.

2. If a person is covered by 2 or more Coverage Plans that compute their benefit payments on the basis of reasonable and customary fees, any amount in excess of the highest of the reasonable and customary fees for a specific benefit is not an allowable expense.

3. If a person is covered by 2 or more Coverage Plans that provide benefits or services on the basis of negotiated fees, an amount in excess of the highest of the negotiated fees is not an allowable expense.

4. If a person is covered by one Coverage Plan that calculates its benefits or services on the basis of reasonable and customary fees and another Coverage Plan that provides its benefits or services on the basis of negotiated fees, the primary Coverage Plan's payment arrangements shall be the allowable expense for all Coverage Plans.

5. The amount a benefit is reduced by the primary Coverage Plan because a covered person does not comply with the Coverage Plan provisions. Examples of these provisions are second surgical opinions, precertification of admissions, and preferred provider arrangements.

D. "Claim determination period" means a calendar year. However, it does not include any part of a year during which a person has no coverage under this Coverage Plan, or before the date this COB provision or a similar provision takes effect.

E. "Closed panel Coverage Plan" is a Coverage Plan that provides health benefits to covered persons primarily in the form of services through a panel of providers that have contracted with or are employed by the Coverage Plan, and that limits or excludes benefits for services provided by other provider, except in cases of emergency or referral by a panel member.

F. "Custodial parent" means a parent awarded custody by a court decree. In the absence of a court decree, it is the parent with whom the child resides

CB(99)

13

more than one half of the calendar year without regard to any temporary visitation.

Section 6.3 Order of Benefit Determination Rules. When two or more Coverage Plans pay benefits, the rules for determining the order of payment are as follows:

A. The primary Coverage Plan pays or provides its benefits as if the secondary Coverage Plan or Coverage Plans did not exist.

B. A Coverage Plan that does not contain a coordination of benefits provision that is consistent with this provision is always primary. There is one exception: coverage that is obtained by virtue of membership in a group that is designed to supplement a part of a basic package of benefits may provide that the supplementary coverage shall be excess to any other parts of the Coverage Plan provided by the contract holder. Examples of these types of situations are major medical coverages that are superimposed over base Coverage Plan hospital and surgical benefits, and insurance type coverages that are written in connection with a closed panel Coverage Plan to provide out-of-network benefits.

C. A Coverage Plan may consider the benefits paid or provided by another Coverage Plan in determining its benefits only when it is secondary to that other Coverage Plan.

D. The first of the following rules that describes which Coverage Plan pays its benefits before another Coverage Plan is the rule to use.

1. Non-Dependent or Dependent. The Coverage Plan that covers the person other than as a dependent, for example as an employee, member, subscriber or retiree is primary and the Coverage Plan that covers the person as a dependent is secondary. However, if the person is a Medicare beneficiary and, as a result of federal law, Medicare is secondary to the Coverage Plan covering the person as a dependent; and primary to the Coverage Plan covering the person as other than a dependent (e.g. a retired employee); then the order of benefits between the two Coverage Plans is reversed so that the Coverage Plan covering the person as an employee, member, subscriber or retiree is secondary and the other Coverage Plan is primary.

2. Child Covered Under More Than One Plan. The order of benefits when a child is covered by more than one Coverage Plan is:

a. The primary Coverage Plan is the Coverage Plan of the parent whose birthday is earlier in the year if:

1) the parents are married;

2) the parents are not separated (whether or not they

CB(99)

14

ever have been married; or
3) a court decree awards joint custody without specifying that one party has the responsibility to provide health care coverage.

If both parents have the same birthday, the Coverage Plan that covered either of the parents longer is primary.

b. If the specific terms of a court decree state that one of the parents is responsible for the child's health care expenses or health care coverage and the Coverage Plan of that parent has actual knowledge of those terms, that Coverage Plan is primary. This rule applies to claim determination periods or Coverage Plan years commencing after the Coverage Plan is given notice of the court decree.

c. If the parents are not married, or are separated (whether or not they ever have been married) or are divorced, the order of benefits is:

1) the Coverage Plan of the custodial parent;

2) the Coverage Plan of the spouse of the custodial parent;

3) the Coverage Plan of the noncustodial parent; and then

4) the Coverage Plan of the spouse of the noncustodial parent.

3. Continuation coverage. If a person whose coverage is provided under a right of continuation provided by federal or state law also is covered under another Coverage Plan, the Coverage Plan covering the person as an employee, member, subscriber or retiree (or as that person's dependent) is primary, and the continuation coverage is secondary. If the other Coverage Plan does not have this rule, and if, as a result, the Coverage Plans do not agree on the order of benefits, this rule is ignored.

4. Longer or shorter length of coverage. The Coverage Plan that covered the person as an employee, member, subscriber or retiree longer is primary.

5. If the preceding rules do not determine the primary Coverage Plan, the allowable expenses shall be shared equally between the Coverage Plans meeting the definition of Coverage Plan under this provision. In addition, this Coverage Plan will not pay more than it would have paid had it been primary.

CB(99)

15

Section 6.4 Effect on the Benefits of This Coverage Plan.

A. When this Coverage Plan is secondary, it may reduce its benefits so that the total benefits paid or provided by all Coverage Plans during a claim determination period are not more than 100 percent of total allowable expenses. The difference between the benefit payments that this Coverage Plan would have paid had it been the primary Coverage Plan, and the benefit payments that it actually paid or provided shall be recorded as a benefit reserve for the covered person and used by this Coverage Plan to pay any allowable expenses, not otherwise paid during the claim determination period. As each claim is submitted, this Coverage Plan will:

1. determine its obligation to pay or provide benefits under its contract;

2. determine whether a benefit reserve has been recorded for the covered person; and

3. determine whether there are any unpaid allowable expenses during that claims determination period.

If there is a benefit reserve, the secondary Coverage Plan will use the covered person's benefit reserve to pay up to 100% of total allowable expenses incurred during the claim determination period. At the end of the claims determination period, the benefit reserve returns to zero. A new benefit reserve must be created for each new claim determination period.

B. If a covered person is enrolled in two or more closed panel Coverage plans and if, for any reason, including the provision of service by a non-panel provider, benefits are not payable by one closed panel Coverage Plan, COB shall not apply between that coverage Plan and other closed panel Coverage Plans.

Section 6.5 Right to Receive and Release Needed Information. Certain facts about health care coverage and services are needed to apply these COB rules and to determine benefits payable under this Coverage Plan and other Coverage Plans. The Company may get the facts it needs from or give them to other organizations or persons for the purpose of applying these rules and determining benefits payable under this Coverage Plan and other Coverage Plans covering the person claiming benefits. The Company need not tell, or get the consent of, any person to do this. The company need not tell, or get the consent of, any person to do this. Each person claiming benefits under this Coverage Plan must give the Company any facts it needs to apply those rules and determine benefits payable. If you do not provide the Company the information it needs to apply these rules and determine the benefits payable, your claim for benefits will be denied.

CB(99)

16

Section 6.6 Payments Made. A payment made under another Coverage Plan may include an amount that should have been paid under this Coverage Plan. If it does, the Company may pay that amount to the organization that made the payment. That amount will then be treated as though it were a benefit paid under this Coverage Plan. The Company will not have to pay that amount again. The term "payment made" includes providing benefits in the form of services, in which case "payment made" means reasonable cash value of the benefits provided in the form of services.

Section 6.7 Right of Recovery. If the amount of the payments made by the Company is more than it should have paid under this COB provision, it may recover the excess from one or more of the persons it had paid or for whom it has paid; or any other person or organization that may be responsible for the benefits or services provided for the covered person. The "amount of the payments made" includes the reasonable cash value of any benefits provided in the form of services.

SECTION 7

CONTINUATION OF COVERAGE

Section 7.1 Continuation Coverage. A Covered Person whose Coverage ends under the Policy may be entitled to elect continuation Coverage in accordance with federal law (under COBRA) and as outlined in Sections 9.2 through 9.4 below [or in accordance with state law and as outlined in Sections 9.5 - 9.7 below].

Continuation Coverage under COBRA (Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act) shall apply only to Enrolling Groups which are subject to the provisions of COBRA. Covered Persons should contact the Enrolling Group's plan administrator to determine if he or she is entitled to continue Coverage under COBRA. For the purpose of continuation Coverage under COBRA, a newborn child of a Subscriber or a child placed for adoption with the Subscriber during the period of continuation coverage shall be considered on the same basis as a Subscriber.

Continuation Coverage for Covered Persons who selected continuation coverage under a prior plan which was replaced by Coverage under the Policy shall terminate as scheduled under the prior plan or in accordance with the terminating events set forth in Section 9.4 below, whichever is earlier.

In no event shall the Company be obligated to provide continuation Coverage to a Covered Person if the Enrolling Group or its designated plan administrator fails to perform its responsibilities under federal law. These responsibilities include but are not limited to notifying the Covered Person in a timely manner of the right to elect continuation Coverage and notifying the Company in a timely manner of the Covered Person's election of continuation Coverage.

CB(99)

17

It is the Subscriber's responsibility to notify the Enrolling Group within 60 days of the date an Enrolled Dependent loses eligibility due to divorce or due to an Enrolled Dependent child losing eligibility (i.e. reaching the limiting age or failing to meet the criteria of a Full-time Student.) If you fail to notify the Enrolling Group of these events within the 60 day period, the Enrolling Group and its designated plan administrator are not obligated to provide continuation Coverage for that Enrolled Dependent.

The Company is not the Enrolling Group's designated Plan Administrator and does not assume any responsibilities of a Plan Administrator pursuant to federal law.

A Covered Person whose Coverage would otherwise end under the Policy may be entitled to elect continuation Coverage in accordance with federal law, as outlined in Sections 9.2 through 9.4 below.

Section 7.2 Qualifying Events for Continuation Coverage Under Federal Law. If the Covered Person's Coverage terminated due to one of the following qualifying events, he or she is entitled to continue Coverage. The Covered Person may elect the same Coverage that he or she had at the time of the qualifying event.

A. Termination of the Subscriber from employment with the Enrolling Group or reduction of hours, for any reason other than gross misconduct; or

B. death of the Subscriber; or

C. divorce or legal separation of the Subscriber; or

D. loss of eligibility by an Enrolled Dependent who is a child; or

E. entitlement of the Subscriber to Medicare benefits; or

F. the Enrolling Group filing for bankruptcy, under Title XI, United States Code, on or after July 1, 1986, but only for a retired Subscriber and his or her Enrolled Dependents. This is also a qualifying event for any retired Subscriber and his or her Enrolled Dependents if there is a substantial elimination of coverage within one year before or after the date the bankruptcy was filed.

Section 7.3 Notification Requirements and Election Period for Continuation Coverage Under Federal Law.

ARTICLE II
ELIGIBIILTY

2.1 Eligibility for Participation.

All salaried Employees of the Employer (a) whose benefits under the Qualified Pension Plan are limited by the limitations set forth in Code Sections 401(a)(17) and/or 415, (b) for whom contributions by the Employer to the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan are limited by the limitations set forth in Code Sections 401(a)(17) and/or 415, or (c) who defer compensation under the Deferred Compensation Plan and, solely on account of such deferrals, the Employee's benefit under the Qualified Pension Plan or Company matching contributions to the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan are limited shall be eligible to participate in the Plan. Upon becoming a Participant, an Employee is deemed to have assented to the Plan and to any amendments hereafter adopted.

2.2 Date of Participation.

Each Employee who is eligible to become a Participant under Section 2.1 shall become a Participant on the later of i) January 1, 1984 or ii) the first day of the month coincident with or next following the date he meets the eligibility requirements.

2.3 Duration of Participation.

An Employee who becomes a Participant shall continue to be a Participant until his termination of employment with the Employer or the date he is no longer entitled to benefits under this Plan.

ARTICLE III
BENEFITS

3.1 Supplemental Pension Benefit.

(a) Benefit.

(1) If a Participant has Years of Benefit Service as defined in the Qualified Pension Plan of the Employer, he shall be entitled to a Supplemental Pension Benefit equal to that portion of his Retirement Benefit under the Qualified Pension Plan of the Employer which is not payable under such Qualified Pension Plan as a result of the limitations imposed by Code Sections 401(a)(17) and 415.

(2) If a Participant has Years of Benefit Service as defined in the Qualified Pension Plan of the Employer and if a Participant has deferred compensation under the Deferred Compensation Plan, he shall be entitled to a Supplemental Pension Benefit equal to that portion of his Retirement Benefit under the Qualified Pension Plan of the Employer which is not payable under such Qualified Pension Plan solely on account of the fact that deferred compensation is not considered

4

Benefit Compensation (as defined in the Qualified Pension Plan of the Employer) for purposes of the Qualified Pension Plan.

(3) In no event (except in the event that compensation is calculated under
Section 3.1(a)(5), below) shall the sum of i) the Supplemental Pension Benefit and ii) the actual Retirement Benefit paid under the Qualified Pension Plan exceed the amount of Retirement Benefit determined under the Qualified Pension Plan had compensation not been deferred under the Deferred Compensation Plan and without regard to limitations imposed by the Code.

(4) For purposes of this Section 3.1, the Supplemental Pension Benefit of a Participant shall be calculated based on the Participant's compensation that is considered under the Qualified Pension Plan in calculating his Retirement Benefit, without regard to the limitation of Code Section 401(a)(17) and by taking into consideration compensation that would have been considered benefit-eligible compensation under the Qualified Pension Plan had the Participant not elected to defer such amounts.

(5) If a Participant was on an Approved Leave of Absence, as defined under the Qualified Pension Plan, for the purpose of working for another entity within The Coca-Cola system, his Supplemental Pension Benefit under this Plan shall be calculated based on compensation paid as follows: compensation during the Approved Leave of Absence shall be the greater of i) compensation as determined under the first sentence of this paragraph 3.1(a)(4) or ii) compensation actually paid to the Participant by the other entity within The Coca-Cola system during the Approved Leave of Absence, subject to the same inclusions and exclusions to benefit compensation under the Qualified Pension Plan, but without regard to the limitation of Code Section 401(a)(17). The Committee may require that the Participant provide satisfactory evidence of such compensation.

(6) Any benefit payable pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall be offset by the monthly benefit, if any, payable to a Participant under The Coca-Cola Company Key Executive Retirement Plan. The Supplemental Pension Benefit calculated under this Section 3.1 shall also be offset by the value of benefits to which the Participant is entitled under any other retirement plan (other than the Qualified Pension Plan or the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan) to which the Company or an affiliate of the Company contributed.

(b) Adjustments.

(1) To the extent that a Participant's Retirement Benefit under a Qualified Pension Plan is recalculated as a result of an amendment to such Qualified Pension Plan in order to increase the amount of his Retirement Benefit, the Participant's Supplemental Pension Benefit shall also be recalculated in order to properly reflect such increase in determining payments of the Participant's Supplemental Pension Benefit made on or after the effective date of such increase.

5

(2) Any benefit payable pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall be adjusted in accordance with new limitations, if any, established by the Internal Revenue Service on payments that may be made from the Qualified Pension Plan.

(c) Distribution of Supplemental Pension Benefit.

(1) The Supplemental Pension Benefit, as determined in accordance with this Section 3.1, shall be payable in monthly increments as of the first day of the month concurrently with and in the same manner as the Participant's Retirement Benefit under the Qualified Pension Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant's Supplemental Pension Benefit, as calculated in the form of a life annuity, is less than $50 per month, then the present value of the Supplemental Pension Benefit may be paid in a lump sum or the Supplemental Pension Benefit may be paid in quarterly, semi-annual, or annual payments, as the Committee may designate.

(2) Pre-Retirement Survivor's Benefit. If a Participant dies while employed by the Employer and his Beneficiary is eligible for the pre-retirement survivor's benefit under the Qualified Pension Plan, his Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive a survivor's benefit from this Plan calculated in the same manner and payable at the same time as the pre-retirement survivor's benefit under the Qualified Pension Plan.

(3) Post-Retirement Survivor's Benefit. If a Participant dies after Supplemental Pension Benefit payments have begun, his Beneficiary shall be entitled to receive a survivor's benefit from this Plan calculated in the same manner and payable at the same time as the post-retirement survivor's benefit under the Qualified Pension Plan.

(4) Termination of Employment. Except as provided in Article IV of this Plan, if a Participant's employment with the Employer terminates for a reason other than death before his Earliest Retirement Date, no Supplemental Pension Benefit will be payable from this Plan.

3.2 Supplemental Thrift Benefit.

(a) Benefit.

(1) If a Participant elects to contribute to the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan of the Employer, he may be entitled to a Supplemental Thrift Benefit determined under this Section 3.2. An Account shall be established for the Participant by the Employer, as of his initial Plan Year of participation in this Plan. Each Plan Year, such Account shall be credited with hypothetical contributions equal to the amount that: i) the Employer is prohibited from contributing as a matching contribution under the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan on behalf of the

6

Participant as a result of the limitations imposed by Code Sections
401(a)(17), 401(k), 401(m), 402(g) and 415 or ii) the Employer is prohibited from contributing as a matching contribution under the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan on behalf of the Participant solely on account of the fact that deferred compensation is not considered eligible pay for purposes of the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan. If the Participant does not have a valid pre-tax or after-tax deferral election on file under the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan for a particular pay period, no amounts shall be credited to the Participant's Account with respect to such pay period. All amounts so credited to the Account of the Participant shall be deemed to be invested in the Company Stock fund at the same time and at the same share cost that such amounts would have been so invested if they had been contributed by the Employer to the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan. In addition, such Account shall be credited with such additional hypothetical shares as could be purchased with the dividends which would have been payable if the credited shares had been outstanding.

(2) In no event shall the sum of total matching contributions under the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan and hypothetical contributions under this Plan exceed three percent of the Participant's eligible compensation as defined for purposes of the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan, but without regard to compensation deferred under the Deferred Compensation Plan and the limits of Code Section 401(a)(17).

(b) Distribution of Supplemental Thrift Benefit.

(1) Distribution of the total value of an Account of a Participant shall be received by the Participant when he is no longer an Employee in accordance with this Section 3.2(b)(1) or shall be received by the Beneficiary of a deceased Participant in accordance with Section
3.2(b)(2). A Participant may elect to receive such a distribution upon his permanent and total disability as determined by the Committee (according to such elections as may be prescribed by the Committee). Distributions shall be made in the form of lump sum cash payments, or in such other form as the Committee may approve. Distribution of a Participant's Account shall be comprised of the cash value of the sum of the hypothetical shares of Company Stock, if any, credited to the Account in accordance with Section 3.2(a) plus the cash value of hypothetical contributions and dividends which have accrued since the most recent Valuation Date as defined in the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan. The value of the hypothetical shares of Company Stock shall be determined using the highest Market Price between the fifteenth day of the month of termination of the Participant and the first working day in the month following termination. Payment shall be made to the Participant or Beneficiary as soon as administratively feasible, but not later than one year, following the termination of the Participant's employment. If any benefits payable to, or on behalf of, a Participant are not claimed for a period of seven years from the date of entitlement as determined by the Committee, the value of the Account shall revert to the Company. In the event that a Participant resumes

7

his employment prior to the distribution of the value of his Account, the distribution shall not be made, and no subsequent distribution shall be made until the reemployed Participant again ceases to be an Employee.

(2) Upon the death of a Participant, the total value of his Account as calculated in Section 3.2(a)(1) above shall be paid to his designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries. If there is no surviving Beneficiary, the value will be disposed of as designated by the will of a Participant, or by the applicable intestate statute.

(3) The Committee in its sole discretion upon application made by the Participant, a designated Beneficiary, or their legal representative, may determine to extend or otherwise make payments in a manner different from manner provided above in the event of a Participant's death or total disability (as determined by the Social Security Administration).

3.3 Change in Control.

In the event of a Change in Control, while this provision remains in effect, no amendment will thereafter be made to this Section for a period of at least two consecutive years following the date when the Change in Control occurs. The enhancement of benefits described in this Section is conditional upon this
Section remaining in effect until a Change in Control occurs, and is not part of any Participant's accrued benefit as defined in the Qualified Pension Plan. If any Participant's employment terminates for any reason whatsoever during the two consecutive year period which begins on the date when a Change in Control occurs, the change of control provisions in the Qualified Pension Plan will apply.

ARTICLE IV
VESTING AND FORFEITABILITY

4.1 Forfeitability of Supplemental Pension Benefit.

(a) Except as provided in subsection (c) of this Section 4.1, all rights to the portion of the Supplemental Pension Benefit described in Section 3.1(a)(i) above shall be extinguished and forfeited if a Participant terminates employment with the Employer prior to his Earliest Retirement Date for any reason other than death, unless otherwise expressly provided in writing by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

(b) All rights to the portion of the Supplemental Pension Benefit described in
Section 3.1(a)(ii) above shall be extinguished and forfeited if a Participant terminates employment with the Employer prior to becoming vested in his Retirement Benefit under the Qualified Pension Plan. If a Participant is fully vested in his Retirement Benefit under the Qualified Pension Plan, he shall be fully vested in the portion of the Supplemental Pension Benefit described in Section 3.1(a)(ii), but the portion of the Supplemental Pension Benefit described in Section 3.1(a)(i) shall still be subject to the conditions described in Section 4.1(a).

8

(c) Participants on December 31, 1993.

Notwithstanding anything in this Plan to the contrary, each Employee who is a Participant in the Plan as of December 31, 1993 shall be deemed vested in the portion of his Supplemental Pension Benefit, if any, calculated as of December 31, 1993 (based on his compensation and years of benefit service as of such date and assuming that he is vested under the Qualified Pension Plan of the Employer), and such benefit under the Plan shall not be subject to forfeiture under Section 4.1(a). If the Participant terminates employment with the Employer before his Earliest Retirement Date, such vested benefit shall be payable in monthly increments on the first day of the month concurrently and in the same manner as the Participant's Retirement Benefit under the Qualified Pension Plan, or if no Retirement Benefit is payable from the Qualified Pension Plan, then in monthly increments commencing on the first day of the month following the Participant's Earliest Retirement Date. Such monthly benefit shall be reduced, using the same reduction factors as are in use under the Qualified Pension Plan for a vested terminated participant, for each month by which the Participant's first payment under this Plan precedes the first day of the month on or after the Participant attains age 65. If the Participant's Supplemental Pension Benefit is less than $50 per month, as calculated in the form of a life annuity, the present value of the Supplemental Pension Benefit may be paid in a lump sum or the Supplemental Pension Benefit may be paid in quarterly, semi-annual, or annual payments, as the Committee may designate.

4.2 Forfeitability of Supplemental Thrift Benefit.

The Supplemental Thrift Benefit shall become vested and nonforfeitable according to the same terms as the Company matching contribution under the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan. All rights to the Supplemental Thrift Benefit shall be extinguished and forfeited to the extent the Participant's Company matching contributions under the Qualified Deferred Compensation Plan are not vested at the time the Participant terminates employment. If a Participant's Company matching contributions under the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan are fully vested, his Supplemental Thrift Benefit shall also be fully vested. If a Participant's Company matching contributions under the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan are non-vested or a percentage of such contributions are vested, his Supplemental Thrift Benefit shall be considered vested in the same proportion as the Company matching contributions are vested under the Qualified Defined Contribution Plan.

4.3 Non-Competition.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, any benefits under this Plan which a Participant is receiving shall cease, and all rights under the Plan shall be extinguished, if a Participant terminates employment with the Employer and without the Employer's consent is subsequently (i) employed by or in any manner provides services for any business organization that is in direct competition with the Employer, or (ii) personally engages in direct competition with the Employer. If a court of competent jurisdiction finds that the restrictions provided for in
(i) and (ii) are unenforceable,

9

then such benefits shall be forfeited if a Participant competes either as an employee or directly in the widest geographical area and for the longest period of time that are legally enforceable.

ARTICLE V

A person who believes that he or she is being denied a benefit to which he or she is entitled under this Plan (hereinafter referred to as "Claimant") must file a written request for such benefit with the Committee, setting forth his or her claim within 90 days of the date such Claimant believes he or she was entitled to benefits under the Plan. The request must be addressed to the Committee at the Company's principal place of business.

(b) Claim Decision. Upon receipt of a claim, the Committee (or its delegate, hereinafter collectively referred to as "Committee") shall advise the Claimant that a reply will be forthcoming within 90 days and shall, in fact, deliver such reply within such period. The Committee may, however, extend the reply period for an additional 90 days for special circumstances. If the claim is denied in whole or in part, the Committee shall inform the Claimant in writing, setting forth: (i) the specified reason or reasons for such denial; (ii) the specific reference to pertinent provisions of this Plan on which such denial is based; (iii) a description of any additional material or information necessary for the Claimant to perfect his or her claim and an explanation of why such material or such information is necessary; (iv) appropriate information as to the steps to be taken if the Claimant wishes to submit the claim for review; and (v) the time limits for requesting a review under subsection (c).

Such request must be addressed to the Committee, at the Company's then principal place of business. The Claimant or his or her duly authorized representative may, but need not, review the pertinent documents and submit issues and comments in writing for consideration by the Committee. If the Claimant does not request a review within such 60-day period, he or she shall be barred and estopped from challenging the Committee's determination.

12

(d) Review of Decision. Within 60 days after the Committee's receipt of a request for review, after considering all materials presented by the Claimant, the Committee will inform the Claimant in writing, the decision setting forth the specific reasons for the decision containing specific references to the pertinent provisions of this Plan on which the decision is based. If special circumstances require that the 60 day time period be extended, the Committee will so notify the Claimant and will render the decision as soon as possible, but no later than 120 days after receipt of the request for review.

(e) Limitation of Actions. Any suit for benefits must be brought within twelve months after the date the Committee has made a final denial of the claim. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, any suit for benefits must be brought within two years after the date the claim for benefits first arose.

Participants and their Beneficiaries, heirs, successors, and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights, claims, or interest in any specific property or assets of the Company. No assets of the Company shall be held in any way as collateral security for the fulfilling of the obligations of the Company under this Plan. Any and all of the Company's assets shall be, and remain, the general unpledged, unrestricted assets of the Company. The Company's obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and unsecured promise of the Company to pay money in the future, and the rights of the Participants and Beneficiaries shall be no greater than those of unsecured general creditors. It is the intention of the Company that this Plan be unfunded for purposes of the Code and for purposes of Title 1 of ERISA. Nothing contained in this Plan, and no actions taken pursuant to the provisions of this Plan shall create or be construed to create a trust or any kind of fiduciary relationship between the Employer and any Participant, his Beneficiary, or any other person.

6.2 Restriction Against Assignment.

The Company shall pay all amounts payable hereunder only to the person or persons designated by the Plan and not to any other person or corporation. No part of a Participant's Account or benefit shall be liable for the debts, contracts, or engagements of any Participant, his or her Beneficiary, or successors in interest, nor shall a Participant's Account or benefit be subject to execution by levy, attachment, or garnishment or by any other legal or equitable proceeding, nor shall any such person have any right to alienate, anticipate, sell, transfer, commute, pledge, encumber, or assign any benefits or payments hereunder in any manner whatsoever. If any Participant, Beneficiary or successor in interest is adjudicated bankrupt or purports to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, commute, assign, pledge, encumber or charge any distribution or payment from the Plan, voluntarily or involuntarily, the Committee, in its discretion, may cancel such distribution or payment (or any part thereof) to or for the benefit of such Participant, Beneficiary or successor in interest in such manner as the Committee shall direct.

13

6.3 Tax Withholding.

There shall be deducted from each payment made under the Plan or any other compensation payable to the Participant (or Beneficiary) all taxes which are required to be withheld by the Company in respect to any payment under this Plan. The Company shall have the right to reduce any payment (or compensation) by the amount of cash sufficient to provide the amount of said taxes.

6.4 Amendment, Modification, Suspension or Termination.

(a) The Committee may amend, modify, suspend or terminate the Plan in whole or in part, at any time, except that no amendment, modification, suspension or termination may retroactively adversely affect any Participant's right to a benefit which has vested under the Plan before such date.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, with regard to any Participant who is subject to Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any Account of any such Participant, no amendment can be made to any Plan provision concerning the Supplemental Thrift Benefit relating to the amount and price of any Benefits hereunder the categories of Participants, the timing of any awards or the formula determining Benefits hereunder more than once every six months, except to comport with changes in the Code, in ERISA, or the rules thereunder.

6.5 Governing Law.

This Plan shall be construed, governed and administered in accordance with the laws of the State of Georgia, to the extent not preempted by federal law, without regard to the conflicts of law principles thereof.

6.6 Receipt or Release.

Any payment to a Participant or the Participant's Beneficiary in accordance with the provisions of the Plan shall, to the extent thereof, be in full satisfaction of all claims against the Committee and the Company. The Committee may require such Participant or Beneficiary, as a condition precedent to such payment, to execute a receipt and release to such effect.

6.7 Payments on Behalf of Persons Under Incapacity.

In the event that any amount becomes payable under the Plan to a person who, in the sole judgment of the Committee, is considered by reason of physical or mental condition to be unable to give a valid receipt therefore, the Committee may direct that such payment be made to any person found by the Committee, in its sole judgment, to have assumed the care of such person. Any payment made pursuant to such determination shall constitute a full release and discharge of the Committee and the Company.

14

6.8 Limitation of Rights and Employment Relationship.

Neither the establishment of the Plan nor any modification thereof, nor the creating of any fund or Account, nor the payment of any benefits shall be construed as giving to any Participant, or Beneficiary or other person any legal or equitable right against the Company except as provided in the Plan; and in no event shall the terms of employment of any Employee or Participant be modified or in any way be affected by the provisions of the Plan.

6.9 Headings.

Headings and subheadings in this Plan are inserted for convenience of reference only and are not to be considered in the construction of the provisions hereof.

The Coca-Cola Company Supplemental Benefit Plan is hereby amended and restated, effective as of January 1, 2002.

Rights attaching to Plan Shares: Where the Trustee Appropriates or acquires Plan Shares a proportion of which rank for any dividend or other distribution or other rights attaching to Shares by reference to a record date preceding the relevant Appropriation Day or Acquisition Date and a proportion of which do not, then the Shares to be allocated to each Qualifying Employee shall, so far as practicable, be in the same proportions of Shares with and without the rights.

8 RIGHTS ISSUES

8.1 Instructions to the Trustee: Whenever any rights to be allotted any shares or securities (on payment) or rights of any description are granted in respect of Plan Shares, each Participant shall be notified by the Trustee of the rights relating to his Plan Shares. Each Participant may direct the Trustee and the Trustee may then, in accordance with such directions, do one or more of the following:

(a) subject to the provision by the Participant of any necessary funds, take up or sell all or any of the rights or allow them to lapse; and/or

(b) sell rights nil paid to the extent necessary to enable the Trustee to subscribe in full for the balance of any unsold rights.

The Participant's directions may be of particular or general application and may relate to Plan Shares acquired before and after the date of the rights issue.

8.2 Period for giving directions: The Trustee shall act upon any such directions received by it not less than five Dealing Days before the expiry of the period allowed for the exercise of any such rights. If any Participant has not by that time given directions to the Trustee with regard to those rights and, if appropriate, provided any funds necessary for the purpose, the Trustee shall allow the rights to lapse. Any Capital Receipt received in consequence of the non-exercise or sale of any rights shall be dealt with by the Trustee in accordance with Clause 11.5 of the Deed.

8.4 Trustee's indemnity: Nothing in this Rule shall require the Trustee to act in any manner which would involve it in any liability unless indemnified to its satisfaction by the Participant against such liability.

9 CAPITALISATION ISSUES

Where any Shares are allotted by way of capitalisation to the Trustee in respect of any Participant's Plan Shares, those Shares shall form part of that Participant's Plan Shares and be deemed to have been Appropriated to, or acquired on behalf of, the Participant in the same way and at the same time as the Participant's Plan Shares in respect of which they are allotted.

10 COMPANY RECONSTRUCTION

10.1 Company Reconstruction: This Rule applies if there occurs in relation to any of a Participant's Plan Shares (the "Original Shares") a transaction:

(a) which results in a new holding (the "New Holding") being equated with the Original Shares for the purposes of capital gains tax; or

(b) which would have that result but for the fact that what would be the new holding consists of or includes a Qualifying Corporate Bond.

Such a transaction is referred to in the Plan as a Company Reconstruction.

(a) redeemable shares or securities issued as mentioned in section 209(2)(a) of the Taxes Act;

(b) share capital issued in circumstances such that section 210(l) of the Taxes Act applies; or

is/are issued and a charge to income tax arises in respect of the issue, those shares shall not form part of the New Holding for the purposes of this Rule.

21

10.3 New Shares: In this Rule "New Shares" means, subject to Rule 10.2, shares comprised in the New Holding which were issued in respect of, or otherwise represent, the Original Shares.

10.4 Effect on Original Shares: For the purposes of the Plan:

(a) a Company Reconstruction shall be treated as not involving a disposal of the Original Shares;

(b) the date on which any New Shares are to be treated as having been Appropriated to or acquired on behalf of a Participant shall be that on which his Original Shares were so Appropriated or acquired;

(c) the conditions in Part VIII (types of share that may be used) of Schedule 8 shall be treated as fulfilled with respect to any New Shares if they were (or were treated as) fulfilled with respect to the Original Shares; and

(d) the provisions of Part X (income tax) and Part XI (capital gains tax) of Schedule 8 shall apply in relation to the New Shares as they would have applied to the Original Shares.

10.5 References to Plan Shares: Following a Company Reconstruction, references to a Participant's Plan Shares shall be construed, subject to the above provisions, as being or, as the case may be, as including, references to any New Shares.

11 EVENTS DURING HOLDING PERIOD

11.1 Takeover: A Participant may during the Holding Period of any of his Plan Shares direct the Trustee to:

(a) accept an offer for those Plan Shares (the "Original Shares") if such acceptance will result in a new holding being equated with the Original Shares for the purposes of capital gains tax;

(b) accept an offer of a Qualifying Corporate Bond (whether alone or with other assets or cash or both) for those Plan Shares if the offer forms part of a general offer as mentioned in Rule 11.1(c) below;

(c) accept an offer of cash, with or without other assets, for those Plan Shares if the offer forms part of a general offer which is made to holders of shares of the same class as his shares in The Coca-Cola Company and which is made in the first instance on a condition such that if it is satisfied the person making the offer will have control of The Coca-Cola Company, within the meaning of section 416 of the Taxes Act; or

22

(d) agree to a transaction affecting those Plan Shares or those of them which are of a particular class, if the transaction would be entered into pursuant to a compromise, arrangement or scheme applicable to or affecting:

(ii) all the shares, or all the shares of the class in question, which are held by a class of shareholders identified otherwise than by reference to their employment or their participation in an Employee Share Ownership Plan.

11.2 Compulsory acquisition: In the event of any Plan Shares being compulsorily acquired under sections 428 to 430F of the Companies Act 1985, the Participants concerned shall be entitled to receive notification of this from the Trustee as soon as practicable after the acquisition, and the provisions of Rules 13 and 14 shall apply with the necessary changes so far as relevant.

12 FRACTIONAL ENTITLEMENTS

12.1 Proportionate allocation: Where the Trustee receives additional rights or securities in respect of Plan Shares under a Company Reconstruction, a takeover or compulsory acquisition described in Rule 11, a capitalisation or rights issue or similar offer or invitation, the Trustee shall allocate those rights or securities amongst the Participants concerned on a proportionate basis. If that allocation gives rise to a fraction of a security or of a transferable unit of a security (in this Rule "unit"), the Trustee shall round the allocation down to the next whole unit and aggregate the fractions not allocated. The Trustee shall use its best endeavours to sell any rights or units which are not allocated and distribute the net proceeds of sale (after deducting from them any expenses of sale and any taxation which may be payable in respect of them) proportionately among the Participants whose allocations were rounded down, but so that any sum of less than 3 otherwise distributable to a particular Participant may be retained by the Trustee and used for the purposes of the Plan.

12.2 Allocation by reference to time of Appropriation or acquisition: In any circumstances in which the Trustee receives New Shares which form part of a Participant's Plan Shares, the Trustee shall allocate the New Shares to the Participant by reference to the relative times of Appropriation or acquisition of his Plan Shares to which they relate. If that allocation gives rise to a fraction of a New Share, the Trustee shall round the allocation up or down to the next whole unit as it, in its discretion, thinks fit.

23

13 TRANSFER OF PLAN SHARES

Subject to Clause 11.3 of the Deed, the Trustee shall, as soon as practicable after it is required to do so under the Plan, transfer the legal title to any Plan Shares it holds on behalf of that Participant into the name of the relevant Participant (or his nominee).

14 STAMP DUTY

Any stamp duty or other expenses involved in any transfer of Shares by the Trustee shall be payable:

(a) in the case of a transfer into the name of a Participant, by the Trustee (and reimbursed by the relevant Participating Company); and

(b) in any other case, by the transferee.

15 NOTICES

15.1 Directions to the Trustee: Any direction given to the Trustee by or on behalf of a Participant or any person in whom the beneficial interest in his Plan Shares is for the time being vested under the Plan must be given in writing and, unless given electronically, signed by the relevant person.

15.2 Notices: Any notice which the Trustee gives to any Eligible Employee, Qualifying Employee or Participant shall be in writing (including by email) and sufficiently given if delivered to him personally, by email or sent first class through the post pre-paid, in either case addressed to the Eligible Employee, Qualifying Employee or Participant at the address (or email address) last known to the Trustee (including any address supplied by the relevant Participating Company). If the notice is sent by post, it shall be deemed to have been duly given on the day following the date of posting and in the case of a notice sent by email, it shall be deemed to have been duly given when sent provided the Trustee is not thereafter notified that the email is undeliverable.

16 DISPUTES

The decision of the Company on any dispute or question affecting any Eligible Employee, Qualifying Employee or Participant under the Plan shall be final and conclusive.

24

17 TERMS OF EMPLOYMENT

The rights and obligations of an individual under the terms and conditions of his office or employment shall not be affected by his participation in the Plan or any right he may have to participate in the Plan. An individual who participates in the Plan waives all and any rights to compensation or damages in consequence of the termination of his office or employment with any company for any reason whatsoever - whether lawful or unlawful - insofar as those rights arise, or may arise, from his ceasing to have rights under or to be entitled to the Shares under the Plan as a result of such termination or from the loss or diminution in value of such rights or entitlements. If necessary, the individual's terms of employment shall be varied accordingly.

25

PART THREE

FREE SHARES

1 INVITATION TO PARTICIPATE

If the Company decides that an Appropriation of Free Shares shall be made, it shall invite all Eligible Employees who are not at that time a party to a Participation Contract, to participate by issuing to them a Participation Contract. To consent to the Appropriation of Free Shares, an Eligible Employee must return the Participation Contract duly completed by the date specified in it. If the Company does not receive a Participation Contract from an Eligible Employee by the specified date, that Eligible Employee shall be deemed to have declined to participate in the Plan at that time. The Company shall specify the Holding Period for the Free Shares to be Appropriated on an Appropriation Date. The Holding Period for any Free Shares already Appropriated under the Plan cannot be changed.

2 MAXIMUM VALUE OF FREE SHARES APPROPRIATED

The maximum aggregate Initial Market Value of the Free Shares Appropriated to a Qualifying Employee in an Appropriation Year shall not exceed the maximum amount permitted by paragraph 24 of Schedule 8 from time to time.

3 PERFORMANCE MEASURES AND TARGETS

3.1 Appropriation may be subject to performance measures: An Appropriation of Free Shares may be made subject to performance measures and targets as provided for under this Rule 3.

3.2 Requirements as to performance measures: If any Appropriation of Free Shares under the Plan is to be made subject to performance measures they must be:

(a) provided for all persons who are Qualifying Employees in respect of that Appropriation;

(b) based on business results or other objective criteria;

(c) fair and objective measures of the performance of the Performance Units to which they apply;

(d) set for Performance Units where no employee is a member of more than one Performance Unit; and

(e) be either Restricted Performance Measures or Unrestricted Performance Measures.

26

3.3 Restricted Performance Measures: If the Company decides to Appropriate Free Shares by reference to Restricted Performance Measures, at least 20 per cent. of the Free Shares to be Appropriated must be Appropriated without reference to performance measures and shall be Appropriated on the same terms as required by Rule 1 of Part Two of these Rules. The remaining Free Shares shall be Appropriated subject to performance measures but so that, in respect of such Appropriation, the highest Appropriation made to a Qualifying Employee by reference to performance measures shall be no more than four times the highest Appropriation to a Qualifying Employee without reference to performance measures. The Free Shares awarded by reference to performance measures need not be Appropriated on the same terms as required by Rule 1 of Part Two of these Rules.

3.4 Unrestricted Performance Measures: If the Company decides to Appropriate Free Shares by reference to Unrestricted Performance Measures some or all of the Free Shares shall be Appropriated by reference to performance measures but so that:

(a) Appropriations of Free Shares to Qualifying Employees who are members of the same Performance Unit shall be made on the same terms as required by Rule 1 of Part Two of these Rules; and

(b) Free Shares Appropriated for each Performance Unit shall be treated as separate Appropriations.

3.5 Company's obligation to notify: If an Appropriation of Free Shares under the Plan is to be made subject to performance measures and targets the Company must, as soon as reasonably practicable, notify each Eligible Employee:

(a) of the performance measures and targets which will be used to determine the number or value, as appropriate, of Free Shares Appropriated to him; and

(b) in general terms of the performance measures which will be used to determine the number or value, as appropriate, of Free Shares to be Appropriated to each Qualifying Employee participating in that Appropriation.

3.6 Confidential information: In fulfilling its obligations under Rule 3.5(b) above, the Company shall not be obliged to disclose any information which it reasonably considers would prejudice commercial confidentiality.

27

4 BASIS OF APPROPRIATION

4.1 Free Shares - no performance measures: Free Shares to be Appropriated to Qualifying Employees without performance measures shall be Appropriated on a basis determined by the Company but so that such basis complies with Rule 1 of Part Two of these Rules.

4.2 Free Shares - performance measures: The Company shall determine in respect of any Appropriation of Free Shares to be made subject to performance measures (a) the Performance Units for that Appropriation, (b) the performance measures and targets, and (c) whether the performance measures are to be Restricted Performance Measures or Unrestricted Performance Measures.

28

PART FOUR

PARTNERSHIP SHARES AND MATCHING SHARES

1 INVITATIONS

1.1 Invitations to Eligible Employees: If the Company decides to give Eligible Employees the opportunity to acquire Partnership Shares, each Eligible Employee will be sent a Partnership Share Agreement under which:

(a) the Eligible Employee would authorise the relevant Participating Company to deduct part of his Salary for the purchase of Partnership Shares; and

(b) the Company would agree to arrange for Partnership Shares to be acquired on behalf of the Eligible Employee in accordance with the Plan.

To take the opportunity to acquire Partnership Shares, an Eligible Employee must return the Partnership Share Agreement duly completed by the date specified in it. If the Company does not receive a Partnership Share Agreement from an Eligible Employee by the specified date, that Eligible Employee shall be deemed to have declined to acquire Partnership Shares at that time.

1.2 Maximum deductions from Salary: The Partnership Share Agreement must stipulate the maximum amount of Partnership Share Money (or percentage of Salary) that may be deducted from an Eligible Employee's Salary and the intervals at which such deductions are to be made, but so that the maximum amount does not exceed the amount permitted from time to time by paragraph 36 of Schedule 8 and does not, in any event, exceed 10 per cent. of the Eligible Employee's Salary.

1.3 Percentage of Salary: For the purposes of Rule 1.2 above, "10 per cent. of the Eligible Employee's Salary" shall mean:

(a) if the Partnership Share Agreement does not provide for an Accumulation Period, 10 per cent. of the Salary payment from which the deduction is made; and

(b) if the Partnership Share Agreement provides for an Accumulation Period, 10 per cent. of the Salary payments over the Accumulation Period.

1.4 Minimum deductions from Salary: The Partnership Share Agreement in respect of any invitation may also stipulate that the minimum monthly amount (irrespective of the interval for deductions) to be deducted from a Qualifying Employee's Salary in pursuance of that Agreement must not be less than a specified amount which must not be greater than [British Pounds] 10.

29

1.5 Prescribed notice: The Partnership Share Agreement must contain a notice in a prescribed form in compliance with paragraph 38 of Schedule 8 (notice of possible effect of deductions on benefit entitlement).

2 PARTNERSHIP SHARE MONEY

Any Partnership Share Money shall be paid to the Trustee as soon as practicable following its deduction from a Qualifying Employee's Salary and shall be held by the Trustee on his behalf pending its application in accordance with Rule 3.1 or 4.3 of this Part Four, as appropriate, in an account (interest bearing or otherwise) with:

(a) an institution authorised under the Banking Act 1987;

(b) a building society; or

(c) a relevant European institution.

The Company shall determine and inform the Trustee of whether the account will be interest bearing.

If the Partnership Share Money held on behalf of a Qualifying Employee is held in an interest bearing account, the Trustee shall account for the interest to the Qualifying Employee.

3 NO ACCUMULATION PERIOD

3.1 Acquisition of Shares: Any Partnership Share Money deducted from a Qualifying Employee's Salary under a Partnership Share Agreement with no Accumulation Period will be applied by the Trustee in acquiring Partnership Shares on a date (the "Acquisition Date") set by the Trustee which is within 30 days after the deduction is made. The number of Shares acquired on behalf of a Qualifying Employee shall be determined by reference to the Market Value of the Shares on the Acquisition Date.

3.2 Surplus Partnership Share Money: Any surplus Partnership Share Money remaining after the acquisition of Partnership Shares by the Trustee may, with the agreement of the Qualifying Employee (which may be provided for in the Partnership Share Agreement), be carried forward and added to the next deduction of Salary. In any other case, it must be paid over to the Qualifying Employee (subject to deduction of income tax under PAYE and NICs, as appropriate) as soon as practicable.

30

4 ACCUMULATION PERIOD

4.1 Accumulation Period: If the Company decides to offer an Accumulation Period in respect of an invitation to acquire Partnership Shares, the Partnership Share Agreement must specify:

(a) the length of the Accumulation Period (which cannot exceed 12 months or, if different, any period specified from time to time in paragraph 41(1) of Schedule 8);

(b) when the Accumulation Period starts (which may not be later than the date on which the first deduction of Salary is made under that Agreement); and

(c) when the Accumulation Period ends and whether the Accumulation Period will come to an end before then on the occurrence of specified event(s).

4.2 Transaction resulting in a new holding: If, during an Accumulation Period, a transaction occurs in relation to any Shares (the "original holding") to be acquired under a Partnership Share Agreement which results in a new holding of shares (the "new holding") being equated with the original holding for the purposes of capital gains tax and the Qualifying Employee so consents, the Partnership Share Agreement shall have effect after the time of that transaction as if it were an agreement for the purchase of shares comprised in the new holding.

4.3 Acquisition of Shares: Subject to Rule 4.5, the Partnership Share Money deducted in respect of a Participant during an Accumulation Period must be applied by the Trustee in acquiring Partnership Shares on behalf of that Participant on a date (the "Acquisition Date") set by the Trustee which is within 30 days after the end of that Accumulation Period. The number of Shares acquired on behalf of a Qualifying Employee will be determined by reference to the lower of:

(a) the Market Value of the Shares at the beginning of the Accumulation Period; and

(b) the Market Value of the Shares on their Acquisition Date.

4.4 Surplus Partnership Share Money: Any surplus Partnership Share Money remaining after the acquisition of Partnership Shares by the Trustee may, with the agreement of the Qualifying Employee (which may be provided for in the Partnership Share Agreement), be carried forward to the next Accumulation Period. In any other case, it must be paid over to the Qualifying Employee (subject to deduction of income tax under PAYE and NICs, as appropriate) as soon as practicable.

4.5 Repayment of Partnership Share Money: In any case where Partnership Share Money has been deducted in an Accumulation Period and the Qualifying Employee ceases to be in Employment with a Participating Company during that Accumulation Period the Partnership Share Money deducted in that Accumulation Period must be paid over to the Qualifying Employee (subject to

31

deduction of income tax under PAYE and NICs as appropriate) as soon as practicable. The Partnership Share Agreement may provide that when the Accumulation Period comes to an end on the occurrence of an event specified in the Agreement the Partnership Share Money deducted in that Accumulation Period must be paid over to the Qualifying Employee (subject to deduction of income tax under PAYE and NICs, as appropriate) as soon as practicable.

5 STOPPING AND RESTARTING DEDUCTIONS

5.1 Stopping deductions: A Qualifying Employee may at any time after entering into a Partnership Share Agreement give notice in writing to the relevant Participating Company to stop deductions from his Salary under that Agreement.

5.2 Restarting deductions: A Qualifying Employee who has stopped deductions from his Salary in pursuance of a Partnership Share Agreement may subsequently give notice in writing to the relevant Participating Company to restart deductions from his Salary under that Agreement. However:

(a) any deductions that have been missed may not be made up; and

(b) where the deductions are made during an Accumulation Period, the Partnership Share Agreement may prevent a Qualifying Employee from restarting deductions more than once in that Accumulation Period.

5.3 Termination of Partnership Share Agreement: A Qualifying Employee may terminate his Partnership Share Agreement at any time by giving notice in writing to the relevant Participating Company. Where a Qualifying Employee terminates his Partnership Share Agreement, no further deductions shall be made from his Salary and any Partnership Share Money held on his behalf shall be paid over to him (subject to deduction of income tax under PAYE and NICs, as appropriate) as soon as practicable.

5.4 Effect of notice under Rules 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3: Unless a later date is specified in any notice given under Rule 5.1 or 5.3 above, the relevant Participating Company must give effect to such a notice within 30 days of receiving it. Unless a later date is specified in a notice given under Rule 5.2 above, the relevant Participating Company must restart deductions under the Partnership Share Agreement no later than the date of the first deduction due under the Partnership Share Agreement more than 30 days after receipt of the notice.

6 WITHDRAWAL OF PARTNERSHIP SHARES

A Participant may withdraw his Partnership Shares from the Plan at any time.

32

7 NUMBER OF PARTNERSHIP SHARES THAT CAN BE ACQUIRED

7.1 Limit specified at time of invitation: The Company may specify at the time of making an invitation under Rule 1 the maximum number of Partnership Shares that can be acquired on behalf of Eligible Employees in respect of that invitation. The Partnership Share Agreement shall contain an undertaking by the Company to notify each Qualifying Employee of any restriction on the number of Shares to be acquired:

(a) if there is no Accumulation Period, before the deduction of any Partnership Share Money under the Partnership Share Agreement; or

(b) if there is an Accumulation Period, before the beginning of the Accumulation Period under that Partnership Share Agreement.

7.2 Scaling down: If the Company receives applications for Partnership Shares in excess of the maximum number of Partnership Shares specified in respect of that invitation under Rule 7.1, then the following steps shall be taken in sequence until the excess number is eliminated:

(a) the excess of the monthly deduction chosen by each Qualifying Employee over the amount stipulated under Rule 1.4 shall be reduced pro rata;

(b) all monthly deductions shall be reduced to the amount stipulated under Rule 1.4; and

(c) Partnership Share Agreements shall be selected by lot, each based on a monthly deduction of the amount stipulated under Rule 1.4.

7.3 Modification/withdrawal and notification: If Rule 7.2 applies, each Partnership Share Agreement shall be deemed to have been modified or withdrawn in accordance with Rule 7.2 and each Qualifying Employee shall be notified accordingly.

8 MATCHING SHARES

8.1 Matching Shares - acquisition and forfeiture: If the Company decides, in conjunction with an invitation to acquire Partnership Shares, to offer Matching Shares, each Eligible Employee shall be sent a Partnership Share Agreement. The Partnership Share Agreement will state the extent (if any) to which the Matching Shares appropriated to a Participant in respect of the associated Partnership Shares will be forfeited if, other than in the event of Permitted Cessation, the Participant:

(a) ceases to be in Employment;

(b) withdraws the Matching Shares from the Plan; or

33

(c) withdraws the associated Partnership Shares from the Plan,

in each case within such period after the relevant Shares were Appropriated to him (not to exceed three years) as is stated in the Partnership Share Agreement.

8.2 Terms of Matching Shares: Matching Shares shall:

(a) be Shares of the same class and carry the same rights as the Partnership Shares to which they relate;

(b) be Appropriated on the same day as the Partnership Shares to which they relate are acquired on behalf of the Qualifying Employee; and

(c) in respect of any Appropriation, be Appropriated to all Qualifying Employees on exactly the same basis.

8.3 Ratio of Matching Shares to Partnership Shares: The Partnership Share Agreement under which Matching Shares are offered must specify the ratio of Matching Shares to Partnership Shares for the time being offered by the Company and the circumstances and manner in which the ratio may be changed by the Company. The ratio must not exceed 2:1 (or such other ratio permitted by paragraph 51(2) of Schedule 8 from time to time) and must be applied by reference to the number of Shares. The Qualifying Employee must be informed by the Company if the ratio offered by the Company changes before Partnership Shares are acquired on his behalf under the relevant Partnership Share Agreement.

34

PART FIVE

REINVESTMENT OF CASH DIVIDENDS

1 PERMITTED REINVESTMENT

1.1 Mandatory or voluntary reinvestment: At the time of operating Part Three or Part Four of these Rules, the Company may decide that, subject to Rule 2 below, all cash dividends paid in respect of any Plan Shares Appropriated or acquired on behalf of a Participant as a consequence of that operation must either:

(a) be applied in acquiring Dividend Shares on behalf of the Participant; or

(b) be applied in acquiring Dividend Shares on behalf only of Participants who elect to reinvest those dividends.

If the Company decides to impose or allow such a facility under the Plan, the provisions of this Part Five of these Rules shall apply.

1.2 Dividend Shares/Holding Period: Dividend Shares shall be shares of the same class and carry the same rights as the Shares to which the cash dividend relates and may not be subject to forfeiture.

During the Holding Period, the Participant shall be bound by the terms of his Participation Contract with the Company to permit any Dividend Shares acquired on his behalf to remain in the hands of the Trustee and (subject to Clause 8 of the Deed) not to assign, charge or otherwise dispose of his beneficial interest in such Dividend Shares.

2 LIMIT ON DIVIDEND REINVESTED

2.1 Maximum amount reinvested: The amount applied under the Plan and any other Employee Share Ownership Plan in acquiring Dividend Shares for a Participant shall not exceed [British Pounds] 1,500 in any Year of Assessment (or such other amount as may be permitted from time to time under paragraph 54(1) of Schedule 8).

2.2 Surplus cash dividend: If the amount of cash dividend received by the Trustee in respect of a Participant's Plan Shares exceeds the limit specified in Rule 2.1 above for that Participant in any Year of Assessment, the excess of the cash dividend must be paid over to the Participant as soon as practicable.

35

3 ACQUISITION OF DIVIDEND SHARES

3.1 Time of acquisition: Subject to Rule 3.3, the Trustee must apply a cash dividend paid in respect of Plan Shares that is to be reinvested in acquiring Dividend Shares on a date (the "Acquisition Date") set by the Trustee which is a date within 30 days after the date on which the cash dividend is received by it. The Trustee must, in exercising its powers in relation to the acquisition of Dividend Shares, treat Participants fairly and equally and may, for these purposes, use any unappropriated Shares that it holds.

3.2 Number of Dividend Shares acquired: The number of Dividend Shares acquired on behalf of a Participant shall be determined in accordance with the Market Value of those Shares on their Acquisition Date.

3.3 Carry forward of uninvested amounts: Any cash dividend available for reinvestment that is not reinvested either because the amount of the dividend is insufficient to acquire a Dividend Share or because there is an amount remaining after acquiring one or more Dividend Shares on behalf of a Participant may be retained by the Trustee and carried forward and added to the amount of the next cash dividend to be reinvested for that Participant. However, any such amount retained by the Trustee must be paid over to the Participant as soon as practicable:

(a) if or to the extent that it is not reinvested within the period of three years beginning with the date on which the dividend was paid;

(b) if the Participant ceases to be in Employment prior to its reinvestment; or

(c) if a Plan Termination Notice is issued prior to its reinvestment.

For the purposes of this Rule an amount of cash dividend carried forward from an earlier cash dividend shall be treated as reinvested before an amount derived from a later cash dividend.

        such  Valuation  Date. The Trustee's  determination  of the value of the

EXHIBIT 10.33

SHARE PURCHASE PLAN - DENMARK

The Share Purchase Plan - Denmark is not set forth in any formal document. The following is a written description of the plan.

Overview of the Plan.

The plan enables employees to buy shares in The Coca-Cola Company, through regular saving. For every share the employee buy (maximum 3% of base salary), Coca-Cola Nordic Services (CCNS)/Coca-Cola Denmark (CCDK) will match. Furthermore, according to Danish Tax Law, the received shares are free of income tax and social security. The shares may not be withdrawn for 5 years.

Details of the Plan

The employee is eligible to participate in the plan if the employee is a permanent employee and has completed 6 months of continuous service with The Coca-Cola Company. The employee cannot participate if he/she is no longer employed by CCNS/CCDK even if such employee is receiving severance payments.

The employee can decide to save 1%, 2% or 3% (maximum) of gross base salary. This amount is deducted monthly from the net pay (after tax), and is shown as a separate deduction on the payslip. CCNS/CCDK matches the employee contribution.

CCNS/CCDK holds the total sum of money and each quarter instructs Danske Invest (Danske Bank) to buy on the New York Stock Exchange the maximum number of whole shares possible using the money which CCNS/CCDK holds. Any balance remaining (which is insufficient to buy a whole share that quarter) is rolled forward and added in the next quarter to buy further shares.

CCNS/CCDK instructs Danske Bank to open a depository account (for the shares) for each employee and an account (for any remaining balance) for each employee. The employee receives dividends on all shares.

Danske Bank's fees for buying the shares are paid by CCNS/CCDK. The employee pays the fees as and when the employee sells the shares.

Taxation

The plan is approved by the Tax Authorities and therefore the contribution from the CCNS/CCDK is free of tax. The employee needs to hold the shares for 5 years, and then the shares can either be sold or transferred to another account. Danske Bank automatically notifies the employee when the shares are released.

Termination

The participation in the plan ends when the employee ends his or her employment with CCNS/CCDK. The shares in the depository account are owned by the employee.

The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

OUR BUSINESS

The Coca-Cola Company is the largest manufacturer, distributor and marketer of nonalcoholic beverage concentrates and syrups in the world. When used in this report, the terms "Company," "we," "us" or "our" mean The Coca-Cola Company and its divisions and subsidiaries. Our Company manufactures beverage concentrates and syrups as well as some finished beverages, which we sell to bottling and canning operations, distributors, fountain wholesalers and some fountain retailers. We are also the largest producer of ready-to-drink juices and juice drinks in the world. In addition, we have ownership interests in numerous bottling and canning operations.

Our Company exists to benefit and refresh everyone who is touched by our business. We believe our success ultimately depends on our ability to build and nurture relationships with constituents essential to our business: consumers, customers, bottlers, business partners, government agencies, communities, employees and share owners. In order to serve and create value for these constituents, our Company executes a business strategy to drive profitable volume growth focused on the following strategic priorities:

(1) accelerate carbonated soft-drink growth, led by Coca-Cola;

(2) selectively broaden our family of beverage brands to drive profitable growth;

(3) grow system profitability and capability together with our bottling partners;

(4) serve customers with creativity and consistency to generate growth across all channels;

(5) direct investments to highest-potential areas across markets;

(6) drive efficiency and cost effectiveness everywhere.

Leading-edge markets generated 47 percent of the Company's unit case volume in 2002. Annual per capita consumption of our Company's beverages in these leading-edge markets is 250 or more servings. However, even in our highest per capita consumption market, Mexico, less than one-third of the population drinks brand Coca-Cola on a daily basis. Emerging markets, where annual per capita consumption is less than 50 servings, contributed only 11 percent of the Company's unit case volume in 2002. More than 4 billion people live in these emerging markets.

In emerging and developing markets, our focus is on availability of affordable products for consumers and building brand preference. In developed and leading-edge markets, our approach to consumers is more sophisticated. Along with ensuring our products are affordable and building brand preference, we must activate points of purchase so that consumers have greater connections with our brands.

In all markets, we need a consistent approach to always:

- provide quality products and superior customer service;

- strive to manage our brand/price/package/channel strategy to meet consumer needs in a way that maximizes value for our system and leverages the unique and unparalleled strengths of our bottlers and our system infrastructure.

We believe significant growth potential exists for our family of brands.

To add value to our Company, our growth must be profitable. Carbonated soft drinks have attractive historical margins, and we expect these attractive margins to continue in the future. As a result, we intend to accelerate carbonated soft-drink growth, led by Coca-Cola. Additionally, our Company is continuing to profitably broaden our family of brands. In particular, we are expanding and growing our noncarbonated offerings to provide more alternatives to consumers. We plan to introduce and/or expand both carbonated soft drinks and noncarbonated beverages as profitable introduction and/or expansion is warranted in identified markets. Increasing consumption of our entire family of beverages on more occasions is a key success factor in all markets.

System Economics
For our Company to be successful, the bottler system must be successful. Bottler returns have been improving, and equity income from our bottlers is also steadily improving. The following are examples of joint initiatives to drive profitability:

- We established a process for top management level meetings with our bottling partners.

- We established a bottler Information Technology Advisory Board whose mission is to prioritize, recommend and enable execution of the highest impact system-wide information technology initiatives.

- In North America, we supported our bottlers as they formed Coca-Cola Bottlers' Sales & Services Company to generate significant system-wide savings in procurement, route to market optimization and account management.

Corporate Governance
Corporate governance received significant attention in 2002. While strategic priorities and execution are critical to our business, we have always been and will continue to be committed to the highest standards of corporate governance. The following two examples demonstrate our commitment.

First, in July 2002, our Company announced that we would expense the cost of all forms of stock-based compensation, including stock options granted by the Company. We concluded that stock options are a form of employee compensation expense, and it would therefore be appropriate to reflect these costs in our financial results. Voluntarily changing to this preferable method of accounting for employee stock options and other forms of stock-based compensation ensures that our earnings more clearly reflect economic reality when all compensation costs are recorded in the financial statements. Refer to the heading "Application of Critical Accounting Policies-Stock-Based Compensation" and to Notes 1 and 13. (Throughout this report, references to "Notes" refer to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included as part of this report.)

Second, in December 2002, our Company changed our policy of providing future earnings guidance. Our Company will no longer provide quarterly or annual earnings per share guidance. We will continue to provide investors with perspective on our value drivers, our strategic initiatives and those factors critical to understanding our business and operating environment. Our Company, with the support of the Board of Directors, concluded that establishing short-term guidance can impede a more meaningful investor focus on the strategic initiatives that companies are taking to build businesses and succeed over the long run.

Our Company's Board of Directors is composed of qualified directors providing appropriate oversight. Various committees of our Board of Directors review and approve Company transactions, as appropriate. Our Audit Committee members are all independent directors. Furthermore, we defined new guiding principles for how our suppliers conduct business and reaffirmed a code of ethics for our own employees and directors.

INVESTMENTS

With a business system that operates locally in more than 200 countries and generates superior cash flows, we consider our Company to be uniquely positioned to capitalize on profitable investment opportunities. Our criteria for investment are simple: New investments should directly enhance our existing operations and generally be expected to provide cash returns that exceed our long-term, after-tax, weighted-average cost of capital (calculated on a book basis), currently estimated at between 8 and 10 percent.

Because the beverage business has consistently generated high returns, we consider it to be a particularly attractive investment for us. Our expenditures in developed and leading-edge markets focus primarily on marketing our Company's brands. In emerging and developing markets, our objective is to increase the penetration of our products. In these markets, we allocate most of our investments to enhancing our brands and infrastructure such as production facilities, distribution networks, sales equipment and technology. We make these investments by forming strategic business alliances with local bottlers and by matching local expertise with our experience, resources and strategy.

We pursue our strategic investment priorities in a way that capitalizes on the combination of our most fundamental and enduring attributes-our brands, our people and our bottling partners. The more than 6 billion people in the world represent current and potential consumers of our Company's products. As we increase and meet consumer demand for our family of brands, we produce growth throughout the Coca-Cola system.

Our Brands

Our offerings in the nonalcoholic beverages business include some of the world's most valuable brands -- more than 300 in all. These include carbonated soft drinks and noncarbonated beverages such as juices and juice drinks, sports drinks, water products, teas and coffees. Ultimately, consumer demand determines the Company's optimal brand offerings. To meet our long-term growth objectives, we make significant expenditures to support our brands. This process involves investments to support existing brands, to develop new global or local brands, and to acquire global or local brands when appropriate.

In 2002, our Company introduced a variety of new brands and products including Vanilla Coke and diet Vanilla Coke. Our existing brands such as diet Coke with lemon, Fanta, Qoo and POWERade were introduced into new markets. Our Company acquired brands during 2002 such as Risco water in Mexico, Dorna water and Valser water in Europe, and Rio Beverages in New Zealand. Along with Danone Waters of North America, Inc., we established a joint venture, of which our Company owns 51 percent, with the rights to the Dannon, Sparkletts and Alhambra brands in the United States. Our Company acquired long-term global license rights for Seagram's nonalcoholic carbonated soft drinks and certain assets related to the Seagram's mixer business. We entered into a master license agreement for the Evian water brand in the United States and Canada. Also during 2002, our Company continued our collaboration with The Walt Disney Company to market noncarbonated children's beverages.

We make significant investments in marketing to support our brands. Marketing investments enhance consumer awareness and increase consumer preference for our brands. This produces long-term growth in profitable volume, per capita consumption and our share of worldwide nonalcoholic beverage sales.

Our People
Our people -- the 56,000 employees of our Company who work with our bottling partners and other key constituents -- are essential to our success. To meet our long-term growth objectives, we recruit and actively cultivate a diverse workforce and establish a culture that fosters learning, innovation and value creation on a daily basis. This means maintaining and refining a corporate culture that encourages our people to develop to their fullest potential, which enhances enjoyment and satisfaction in the Company's work environment. Our Company values the uniqueness of all employees and the contributions they make. We put the responsibility and accountability for ensuring local relevance and maximizing business performance in the hands of those closest to the market. Additionally, we have made innovation an explicit priority for all our associates. Our associates work together with bottling partners to understand markets and what consumers want. Then we meet that need by delivering products through our unparalleled system.

The increase in the number of employees from 38,000 as of December 31, 2001 to 56,000 as of December 31, 2002 is primarily due to 2002 acquisitions. For a description of these acquisitions, refer to Note 18.

Our Bottling Partners
The financial health and success of our bottling partners are critical components of the Company's ability to deliver leading brands. Our people work with our bottling partners to continuously look for ways to improve system economics. Our Company has business relationships with three types of bottlers:

(1) independently owned bottlers, in which we have no ownership interest;

(2) bottlers in which we have invested and have a noncontrolling ownership interest;

(3) bottlers in which we have invested and have a controlling ownership interest.

During 2002, independently owned bottling operations produced and distributed approximately 23 percent of our worldwide unit case volume. Bottlers in which we own a noncontrolling ownership interest produced and distributed approximately 59 percent of our worldwide unit case volume in 2002. Controlled bottling operations accounted for 8 percent of 2002 volume. Fountain operations and The Minute Maid Company produced and distributed approximately 10 percent of 2002 volume.

The independently owned bottling operations and the bottlers in which we have a noncontrolling interest generally have significant funding from majority owners and other financing sources that are otherwise unrelated to our Company.

Bottlers in which we have a noncontrolling ownership interest are accounted for under the cost or equity method, as appropriate. Equity income or loss, included in our consolidated net income, represents our share of the net earnings or losses of our equity method investees. In 2002, our Company's share of income from equity method investments totaled $384 million.

In July 2001, our Company and San Miguel Corporation (San Miguel) acquired Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc. (CCBPI) from Coca-Cola Amatil Limited (Coca-Cola Amatil). Upon completion of this transaction, our Company owned 35 percent of the common shares and 100 percent of the Preferred B shares, and San Miguel owned 65 percent of the common shares of CCBPI. Additionally, as a result of this transaction, our Company's interest in Coca-Cola Amatil was reduced from approximately 38 percent to approximately 35 percent.

During 2000, the Company entered into a joint venture in China with China National Oils and Foodstuffs Imports/Exports Corporation (COFCO), completion of which occurred in 2001. COFCO contributed to the joint venture its minority equity interests in 11 Chinese bottlers. Our Company contributed its equity interests in two Chinese bottlers plus cash in exchange for a 35 percent equity interest in the venture.

On December 31, 1999, we owned approximately 51 percent of Coca-Cola Beverages plc (Coca-Cola Beverages). In July 2000, a merger of Coca-Cola Beverages and Hellenic Bottling Company S.A. was completed to create Coca-Cola Hellenic Bottling Company S.A. (CCHBC). This merger resulted in a decrease of our Company's equity ownership interest from approximately 51 percent of Coca-Cola Beverages to approximately 24 percent of the combined entity, CCHBC. This change in ownership resulted in the Company recognizing a $118 million tax-free, noncash gain in the third quarter of 2000.

The following table presents the difference between calculated fair values, based on quoted closing prices of publicly traded shares, and our Company's carrying values for significant publicly traded equity method investees (in millions):

(1) In instances where carrying value exceeds fair value, the decline in value is considered to be temporary.


Historically, in certain situations, we have viewed it to be advantageous for our Company to acquire a controlling interest in a bottling operation, often on a temporary basis. Owning such a controlling interest has allowed us to

FINANCIAL REVIEW INCORPORATING MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

compensate for limited local resources and has enabled us to help focus the bottler's sales and marketing programs, assist in developing its business and information systems and establish appropriate long-term capital structures.

Effective February 2002, our Company acquired control of Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetraenke AG (CCEAG), the largest bottler in Germany. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination, and the results of CCEAG's operations have been included in the Company's financial statements since February 2002. Prior to February 2002, CCEAG was accounted for by our Company under the equity method of accounting. As of December 31, 2002, our Company had an approximate 41 percent ownership interest in the outstanding shares of CCEAG. In accordance with the terms of a Control and Profit and Loss Transfer Agreement (CPL) with CCEAG, our Company obtained control of CCEAG for a period of up to five years. In return for the control of CCEAG, the Company guaranteed annual payments, in lieu of dividends by CCEAG, to all other CCEAG share owners. Additionally, all other CCEAG share owners entered into either a put or put/call option agreement with the Company, exercisable at the end of the term of the CPL at agreed prices. Our Company entered into either put or put/call agreements for shares representing an approximate 59 percent interest in CCEAG.

In January 2002, our Company and CCBPI finalized the purchase of RFM Corp.'s (RFM) approximate 83 percent interest in Cosmos Bottling Corporation (CBC), a publicly traded Philippine beverage company. The original sale and purchase agreement with RFM was entered into in November 2001. As of the date of this sale and purchase agreement, the Company began supplying concentrate for this operation. In March 2002, a tender offer was completed with our Company and CCBPI acquiring all shares of the remaining minority share owners except for shares representing a 1 percent interest in CBC. As of December 31, 2002, our Company's direct ownership interest in CBC was approximately 61 percent, and our indirect ownership interest in CBC was approximately 13 percent. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination, and the results of CBC's operations have been included in the Company's financial statements since January 2002. CBC is an established carbonated soft-drink business in the Philippines. Our Company's goal is to leverage our partnership with San Miguel in the Philippines, as well as leverage our sales, marketing and system resources, to expand CBC volume and profit over time. The Company and CCBPI have agreed to restructure the operations of CBC, and this restructuring will result in the Company owning all acquired trademarks and CCBPI owning all acquired bottling assets. Upon expected completion of the restructuring in 2003, our Company does not expect a significant gain or loss.

In February 2001, our Company reached agreement with Carlsberg A/S (Carlsberg) for the dissolution of Coca-Cola Nordic Beverages A/S (CCNB), a joint venture in which our Company had a 49 percent ownership interest. At that time, CCNB had bottling operations in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland and Iceland. Under this agreement with Carlsberg, our Company acquired CCNB's Sweden and Norway bottling operations in June 2001, increasing our Company's ownership in those bottlers to 100 percent. Carlsberg acquired CCNB's Denmark and Finland bottling operations, increasing Carlsberg's ownership in those bottlers to 100 percent. Pursuant to the agreement, CCNB sold its Iceland bottling operations to a third-party group of investors in May 2001.

During the first half of 2001, in separate transactions, our Company purchased two bottlers in Brazil: Refrescos Guararapes Ltda. and Sucovalle Sucos e Concentrados do Vale S.A. In separate transactions during the first half of 2000, our Company purchased two other bottlers in Brazil: Companhia Mineira de Refrescos, S.A. and Refrigerantes Minas Gerais Ltda. In October 2000, the Company purchased a 58 percent interest in Paraguay Refrescos S.A. (Paresa), a bottler in Paraguay. In December 2000, the Company made a tender offer for the remaining 42 percent of the shares in Paresa. In January 2001, following the completion of the tender offer, we owned approximately 95 percent of Paresa.

In line with our long-term bottling strategy, we consider alternatives for reducing our ownership interests in bottlers in which we have controlling ownership interests. One alternative is to combine our bottling interests with the bottling interests of others to form strategic business alliances. Another alternative is to sell our interest in a bottling operation to one of our equity investee bottlers. In both of these situations, we continue to participate in the bottler's results of operations through our share of the equity investee's earnings or losses.

In the first quarter of 2002, our Company sold our Baltics bottling operations to CCHBC. The proceeds from the sale

2002 ANNUAL REPORT - 49


FINANCIAL REVIEW INCORPORATING MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

of the Baltics bottlers were approximately equal to the carrying value of the investment.

In November 2001, our Company sold nearly all of its ownership interests in various Russian bottling operations to CCHBC for approximately $170 million in cash and notes receivable, of which $146 million in notes receivable remained outstanding as of December 31, 2001. This amount was fully collected in 2002. These interests consisted of the Company's 40 percent ownership interest in a joint venture with CCHBC that operated bottling territories in Siberia and parts of western Russia, together with our Company's nearly 100 percent interests in bottling operations with territories covering the remainder of Russia.

Refer to Notes 2 and 18 for further discussion of the above bottler transactions.

FINANCIAL STRATEGIES

The following strategies are intended to optimize our cost of capital, increasing our ability to maximize share-owner value.

Debt Financing
Our Company maintains debt levels we consider prudent based on our cash flow, interest coverage and percentage of debt to capital. We use debt financing to lower our overall cost of capital, which increases our return on share-owners' equity.

As of December 31, 2002, our long-term debt was rated "A+" by Standard & Poor's and "Aa3" by Moody's, and our commercial paper program was rated "A-1" and "P-1" by Standard & Poor's and Moody's, respectively. In assessing our credit strength, both Standard & Poor's and Moody's consider our capital structure and financial policies as well as aggregated balance sheet and other financial information for the Company and certain bottlers including Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc. (Coca-Cola Enterprises) and CCHBC. While the Company has no legal obligation for the debt of these bottlers, the rating agencies believe the strategic importance of the bottlers to the Company's business model provides the Company with an incentive to keep these bottlers viable. If our credit ratings were reduced by the rating agencies, our interest expense could increase. Additionally, if certain bottlers' credit ratings were to decline, the Company's share of equity income could be reduced as a result of the potential increase in interest expense for these bottlers.

The interest coverage ratio is a key item monitored by rating agencies. Generally, this ratio is computed as income before taxes (excluding unusual items) plus interest expense, divided by the sum of interest expense and capitalized interest. In accordance with this definition, our Company's interest coverage ratio on a stand-alone basis was 29x, 20x and 12x, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. If the unusual items were included in the calculation, the interest coverage ratio would have been 28x, 20x and 8x, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

The interest coverage ratio is monitored by our Company for trends and is one measurement generally used by rating agencies in assessing debt ratings for companies. However, as described above, the rating agencies aggregate financial data for certain bottlers with our Company when assessing our debt rating. As such, the key measure is the aggregate interest coverage ratio of the Company and these bottlers. Both Standard & Poor's and Moody's employ different aggregation methodologies and have different thresholds for the aggregate interest coverage ratio. These thresholds are not necessarily permanent nor are they fully disclosed to our Company.

Our global presence and strong capital position give us easy access to key financial markets around the world, enabling us to raise funds with a low effective cost. This posture, coupled with active management of our percentage mix of short-term and long-term debt, results in a lower overall cost of borrowing. Our debt management policies, in conjunction with our share repurchase programs and investment activity, can result in current liabilities exceeding current assets.

In managing our use of debt, we also monitor the following financial measurements and ratios:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DECEMBER 31,                              2002           2001            2000
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

================================================================================


Our Company monitors the financial measurements and ratios discussed above in conjunction with our percentage mix of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt and other business and financial risks. The above financial measurements and

50 - THE COCA-COLA COMPANY


FINANCIAL REVIEW INCORPORATING MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

ratios trended positively in 2002 and 2001, reflecting improved business results and effective capital management strategies. Additionally, the 2000 ratio of earnings to fixed charges was negatively impacted by items discussed under the heading "Other Operating Charges."

Share Repurchases
In October 1996, our Board of Directors authorized a plan to repurchase up to 206 million shares of our Company's common stock through 2006. In 2002 and 2001, we repurchased approximately 14 million shares at an average price of $48.42 and 5 million shares at an average price of $48.53, respectively, under the 1996 plan.

In 2000, we did not repurchase any shares under the 1996 plan. This was due to our utilization of cash for an organizational realignment (the Realignment), as discussed under the heading "Other Operating Charges," and the impact on cash from the reduction in concentrate inventory levels by certain bottlers, as discussed under the headings "Net Operating Revenues and Gross Profit" and "Operating Income and Operating Margin."

Since the inception of our initial share repurchase program in 1984 through our current program as of December 31, 2002, we have purchased more than 1 billion shares of our Company's common stock. This represents 32 percent of the shares outstanding as of January 1, 1984 at an average price per share of $13.13.

Our Company expects to make share repurchases of approximately $1.5 billion in 2003. As cash flows are expected to increase in subsequent years, our subsequent share repurchases are also expected to increase.

Dividend Policy
At its February 2003 meeting, our Board of Directors again increased our quarterly dividend, raising it to $.22 per share, equivalent to a full-year dividend of $.88 per share in 2003. This is our 41st consecutive annual increase. Our annual common stock dividend was $.80 per share, $.72 per share and $.68 per share in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

In 2002, our dividend payout ratio was approximately 65 percent of our net income. To free up additional cash for reinvestment in our high-return beverage business, our Board of Directors intends to gradually reduce our dividend payout ratio over time.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

Our Company uses derivative financial instruments primarily to reduce our exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates and, to a lesser extent, adverse fluctuations in commodity prices and other market risks. We do not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. As a matter of policy, all our derivative positions are used to reduce risk by hedging an underlying economic exposure. Because of the high correlation between the hedging instrument and the underlying exposure, fluctuations in the value of the instruments are generally offset by reciprocal changes in the value of the underlying exposure. Virtually all of our derivatives are straightforward, over-the-counter instruments with liquid markets.

Foreign Currency
We manage most of our foreign currency exposures on a consolidated basis, which allows us to net certain exposures and take advantage of any natural offsets. With approximately 77 percent of 2002 Operating Income, excluding Corporate, generated outside the United States, weakness in one particular currency is often offset by strengths in others over time. We use derivative financial instruments to further reduce our net exposure to currency fluctuations.

Our Company enters into forward exchange contracts and collars and purchases currency options (principally euro and Japanese yen) to hedge certain portions of forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. Additionally, the Company enters into forward exchange contracts to offset the earnings impact relating to exchange rate fluctuations on certain monetary assets and liabilities. The Company also enters into forward exchange contracts as hedges of net investments in international operations.

2002 ANNUAL REPORT - 51

Interest Rates
Our Company monitors our percentage mix of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt, as well as our percentage mix of term debt versus nonterm debt. This monitoring includes a review of business and other financial risks as noted above. We also enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage these risks.

Value at Risk
Our Company monitors our exposure to financial market risks using several objective measurement systems, including value-at-risk models. Our value-at-risk calculations use a historical simulation model to estimate potential future losses in the fair value of our derivatives and other financial instruments that could occur as a result of adverse movements in foreign currency and interest rates. We have not considered the potential impact of favorable movements in foreign currency and interest rates on our calculations. We examined historical weekly returns over the previous 10 years to calculate our value at risk. The average value at risk represents the simple average of quarterly amounts over the past year. As a result of our foreign currency value-at-risk calculations, we estimate with 95 percent confidence that the fair values of our foreign currency derivatives and other financial instruments, over a one-week period, would decline by less than $34 million, $43 million and $37 million, respectively, using 2002, 2001 or 2000 average fair values and by less than $31 million and $37 million, respectively, using December 31, 2002 and 2001 fair values. According to our interest rate value-at-risk calculations, we estimate with 95 percent confidence that any increase in our net interest expense due to an adverse move in our 2002 average or in our December 31, 2002 interest rates over a one-week period would not have a material impact on our financial statements. Our December 31, 2001 and 2000 estimates also were not material to our financial statements.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

VOLUME

We measure our sales volume in two ways: (1) gallons and (2) unit cases of finished products. "Gallons" represent our primary business and measure the volume of concentrates, syrups, beverage bases, finished beverages and powders (in all cases, expressed in equivalent gallons of syrup) for all beverage products which are reportable as unit case volume. Most of our revenues are based on this measure of primarily wholesale activity, which consists mainly of our sales to bottlers and customers.

We also measure volume in unit cases. "Unit case" means a unit of measurement equal to 192 U.S. fluid ounces of finished beverage (24 eight-ounce servings). "Unit case volume" means the number of unit cases (or unit case equivalents) of Company trademark or licensed beverage products directly or indirectly sold by the Coca-Cola system to customers. Volume primarily consists of beverage products bearing Company trademarks. Also included in volume are certain products licensed to our Company or owned by our bottling partners, for which our Company provides marketing support and derives profit from the sales. Such products licensed to our Company or owned by our bottling partners account for a minimal portion of total unit case volume. Although most of our Company's revenue is not based directly on unit case volume, we believe unit case volume is one of the measures of the underlying strength of the Coca-Cola system because it measures trends at the consumer level.

Our worldwide unit case volume increased 5 percent in 2002, on top of a 4 percent increase in 2001. The increase reflects acquisitions (refer to Note 18) and consistent performance across certain key operations despite difficult global economic conditions. The Coca-Cola system sold 18.7 billion unit cases in 2002.

APPLICATION OF CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Management has discussed with our Audit Committee the development, selection and disclosure of our critical accounting policies and estimates and the application of these policies and estimates.

The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
Our financial statements include the accounts of The Coca-Cola Company and all subsidiaries. We consolidate all entities that our Company controls, and we do not have any unconsolidated "special purpose" entities. Under current accounting guidance, our Company is not permitted to consolidate companies we do not control. For investments in companies in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies, such entities are accounted for by the equity method. Our judgments regarding the level of influence of each equity method investment include considering key factors such as our ownership interest, representation on the board of directors, participation in policy making decisions and material intercompany transactions. Consolidated net income includes our Company's share of the net earnings of these companies. The difference between consolidation and the equity method impacts certain financial ratios because of the presentation of the detailed line items reported in the financial statements. However, our consolidated net income for the period and our share-owners' equity at the end of the period are the same whether the investment in the company is accounted for under the equity method or the company is consolidated. We record our investments in other companies that we do not control and for which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence under the cost method. In accordance with the cost method, the assets are recorded at cost or fair value, as appropriate.

Our CCEAG business combination represents a good example related to consolidation and management's consideration regarding control. We concluded that CCEAG should be consolidated with our Company based on the following.

Prior to February 2002, our Company accounted for CCEAG under the equity method of accounting. Our Company has an approximate 41 percent ownership interest in the outstanding shares of CCEAG. In accordance with the terms of the CPL, our Company obtained control of CCEAG for a period of up to five years. In return for control of CCEAG, the Company guaranteed annual payments, in lieu of dividends by CCEAG, to all other CCEAG share owners. Additionally, all other CCEAG share owners entered into either a put or put/call option agreement with the Company, exercisable at the end of the term of the CPL at agreed prices. Our Company entered into either put or put/call agreements for shares representing an approximate 59 percent interest in CCEAG. The spread in the strike prices of the put and call options is only approximately 3 percent.

Since the terms of the CPL transfer control and all of the economic risks and rewards of CCEAG to the Company immediately, we determined consolidation was appropriate. Refer to Note 18.

Recoverability of Noncurrent Assets
Management's assessment of the recoverability of noncurrent assets involves critical accounting estimates. The relevant factors for assessing recoverability for each classification of noncurrent assets are discussed below. For the following assets, tests of impairment are performed if certain conditions exist that may indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable.

Operating in more than 200 countries subjects our Company to many uncertainties and potential changes in various economic, political and regulatory environments. As a result, many assumptions about the recoverability of noncurrent assets must be made by management. Two examples of such economic, political and regulatory changes are as follows. First, Germany recently enacted changes in the deposit laws on nonreturnable packages. Many retailers significantly lowered their inventory level on selected package types. Looking forward, the Coca-Cola system is well positioned to manage trends in both returnable and nonreturnable packages. Second, if the political and economic situation in the Middle East results in a continued deterioration of the business environment, our business results and the valuation of our noncurrent assets could be impacted. Currently, these items have not required a charge; however, we will continue to monitor these situations as they develop.

Equity Method and Cost Method Investments
The most significant judgment in management's recoverability assessments is the determination of the fair value of our equity method and cost method investments. For most publicly traded investments, the fair value of our Company's investment is often readily available based on quoted market prices. For non-publicly traded investments, management's assessment of fair value is based on valuation methodologies including discounted cash flows, estimates of sales proceeds and external appraisals, as appropriate. The ability to accurately predict future cash flows, especially in markets such as the Middle East, Africa and Latin America, may impact the determination of fair value. The current unstable economic and political conditions and civil unrest in the Middle East, northern Africa and Venezuela could have an adverse impact on our Company's business results and valuation of assets in those regions.

In the event a decline in fair value of an investment occurs, management may be required to determine if the decline in market value is other than temporary. Management's assessments as to the nature of a decline in fair value are based on the valuation methodologies discussed above and our ability and intent to hold the investment. If the fair value is less than the carrying value and the decline in value is considered to be other than temporary, an appropriate write-down is recorded.

Management's assessments of fair value in accordance with these valuation methodologies represent our best estimates as of the time of the impairment review and are consistent with our internal planning. The estimates used by management can change over time as such amounts are influenced by future events and factors. If different fair values were estimated, this could have a material impact on the

FINANCIAL REVIEW INCORPORATING MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

financial statements. Furthermore, conditions in markets around the world change, and thus our accounting estimates may change from period to period. External factors outside the control of management can be elements in determining estimates related to these investments. Factors that management must estimate when performing impairment tests include, among other items, sales volume, prices, inflation, marketing spending, exchange rates and capital spending.

An example of management's assessment and recognition of impairment of an investment is as follows. In the first quarter of 2002, our Company recorded a noncash pretax charge of approximately $157 million (recorded in the caption Other Income (Loss)--Net) primarily related to the write-down of our investments in Latin America. This write-down reduced the carrying value of the investments in Latin America to fair value. The charge was primarily the result of the economic developments in Argentina during the first quarter of 2002, including the devaluation of the Argentine peso and the severity of the unfavorable economic outlook.

Other Assets
Our Company invests in infrastructure programs with our bottlers that are directed at strengthening our bottling system and increasing unit case volume. Additionally, our Company advances payments to certain customers to fund marketing activities intended to generate profitable volume. Advance payments are also made to certain customers for distribution rights. Payments under these programs are generally capitalized as Other Assets on our balance sheets. Management periodically evaluates the recoverability of these assets by preparing estimates of sales volume, the resulting gross profit, cash flows and other factors. Accuracy of our recoverability assessments is based on management's ability to accurately predict certain key variables such as sales volume, prices, inflation, marketing spending, exchange rates and capital spending. Predicting these key variables involves uncertainty about future events; however, the assumptions used are consistent with our internal planning. If the assets are assessed to be recoverable, they are amortized over the periods benefited. If the carrying value of these assets is considered to be not recoverable, such assets are written down as appropriate.

The assumptions and conditions for Other Assets reflect management's best assumptions and estimates. However, these items involve inherent uncertainties, as described above, which may or may not be controllable by management. An example of a variable we can influence is increasing marketing spending in a particular market. Bankruptcy or economic challenges of a particular customer represent uncertainties that are not controllable by management. As a result, if other assumptions and estimates had been used in the current period, the balances for Other Assets could have been materially impacted. Furthermore, if management uses different assumptions or if different conditions occur in future periods, future operating results could be materially impacted.

During each quarter in 2002, management considered and analyzed impairment indicators related to Other Assets. Based on our analysis, we concluded that no material items recorded in Other Assets required an impairment charge.

Property, Plant and Equipment
Certain events or changes in circumstances may indicate that the recoverability of the carrying amount of Property, Plant and Equipment should be assessed. Such events or changes may include a significant decrease in market value, a significant change in the business climate in a particular market, or a current-period operating or cash flow loss combined with historical losses or projected future losses. If an event occurs or changes in circumstances are present, we estimate the future cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. If the sum of the expected future cash flows (undiscounted and without interest charges) is less than the carrying amount, we recognize an impairment loss. The impairment loss recognized is the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value.

The ability to accurately predict future cash flows, especially in emerging and developing markets such as the Middle East, Africa and Latin America, may impact the determination of fair value. Management's assessments of cash flows represent our best estimate as of the time of the impairment review and are consistent with our internal planning. If different cash flows had been estimated in the current period, the Property, Plant and Equipment balances could have been materially impacted. Furthermore, our accounting estimates may change from period to period as conditions in markets around the world change, and this could materially impact our results in future periods. Factors that management must estimate when performing impairment tests include, among other items, sales volume,

prices, inflation, marketing spending, exchange rates and capital spending.

During each quarter in 2002, management considered and analyzed impairment indicators related to Property, Plant and Equipment. Based on our analysis, we concluded that no material items recorded in Property, Plant and Equipment required an impairment charge.

Goodwill, Trademarks and Other Intangible Assets
Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." The adoption of SFAS No. 142 was required in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, and no adoption alternatives are allowed. Such statement required an initial impairment assessment involving a comparison of the fair value of goodwill, trademarks and other intangible assets to current carrying value. Upon adoption, we recorded a loss for the cumulative effect of accounting change for SFAS No. 142, net of income taxes, of $367 million for Company operations and $559 million for equity investees. As required by the standard, we did not restate prior periods. The adoption of SFAS No. 142 resulted in a pretax reduction in 2002 amortization expense of approximately $60 million, and 2002 equity income increased by approximately $150 million.

SFAS No. 142 classifies intangible assets into three categories: (1) intangible assets with definite lives subject to amortization; (2) intangible assets with indefinite lives not subject to amortization; and (3) goodwill. For intangible assets with definite lives, tests for impairment must be performed if conditions exist that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. For intangible assets with indefinite lives and goodwill, tests for impairment must be performed at least annually. Such tests for impairment are also required for intangible assets recorded by our equity method investees.

Our trademarks and other intangible assets determined to have definite lives are amortized over their useful lives. In accordance with SFAS No. 142, if conditions exist that indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable, we review such trademarks and other intangible assets with definite lives for impairment to ensure they are appropriately valued. Such conditions may include an economic downturn in a market or a change in the assessment of future operations. Trademarks and other intangible assets determined to have an indefinite useful life are not amortized. We test such trademarks and other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that assets might be impaired. Goodwill is not amortized. We perform tests for impairment of goodwill annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate it might be impaired. Such tests include comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value, including goodwill. Impairment assessments are performed using a variety of methodologies, including cash flow analysis, estimates of sales proceeds and independent appraisals. Where applicable, an appropriate discount rate is used, based on the Company's cost of capital rate or location-specific economic factors. In 2002, we tested goodwill for impairment. Based on these assessments, we concluded that such assets did not require an impairment charge.

Management estimates the future cash flows expected to result from the use and, if applicable, the eventual disposition of the assets. The key variables that management must estimate include, among other items, sales volume, prices, inflation, marketing spending, exchange rates and capital spending. Significant management judgment is involved in estimating these variables, and they include inherent uncertainties; however, the assumptions used are consistent with our internal planning. Management periodically evaluates and updates the estimates based on the conditions that influence these variables. If such assets are considered impaired, they are written down to fair value as appropriate.

The assumptions and conditions for goodwill, trademarks and other intangible assets reflect management's best assumptions and estimates. However, these items involve inherent uncertainties, as described above, that may or may not be controllable by management. An example of a variable we can influence is increasing marketing spending in a particular market. Economic and political conditions, such as civil unrest in the Middle East, represent uncertainties that are not controllable by management. As a result, if other assumptions and conditions had been used in the current period, the balances for goodwill, trademarks and other intangible assets could have been materially impacted. Furthermore, if management uses different assumptions or if different conditions occur in future periods, future operating results could be materially impacted.

Contingencies
Our Company is involved in various legal proceedings. Refer to Note 11. Due to their nature, such legal proceedings involve inherent uncertainties including, but not limited to, court rulings, negotiations between affected parties and governmental intervention. Management assesses the probability of loss for such contingencies and accrues a liability and/or discloses the relevant circumstances, as appropriate. Management believes that any liability to the Company that may arise as a result of currently pending legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company taken as a whole.

Adoption of New Accounting Policy-Stock-Based Compensation
Our Company currently sponsors stock option plans and restricted stock award plans. Prior to 2002, our Company accounted for those plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB No. 25) and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation expense for stock options was reflected in Net Income for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, as all stock options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted the preferable fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Under the modified prospective transition method selected by our Company as described in SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure," compensation cost recognized in 2002 of approximately $365 million is the same as that which would have been recognized had the fair value method of SFAS No. 123 been applied from its original effective date. The 2002 expense was recorded in the caption Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. In accordance with the modified prospective method of adoption, results for prior years have not been restated.

Our Company voluntarily made a choice to change to the preferable method of accounting for employee stock options in accordance with SFAS No. 123. We concluded that stock options are a form of employee compensation expense, and therefore it is appropriate that these costs be recorded in our financial results to more clearly reflect economic reality. Refer to the heading "Corporate Governance."

Our Company uses the Black-Scholes option-pricing model to determine the fair value of each option grant. To ensure the best market-based assumptions were used to determine the estimated fair value of stock options granted in 2002, we obtained two independent market quotes. Our Black-Scholes value was not materially different from the independent quotes. The Black-Scholes model includes assumptions regarding dividend yields, expected volatility, expected lives and risk-free interest rates. These assumptions reflect management's best estimates, but these items involve inherent uncertainties based on market conditions generally outside of the control of our Company. As a result, if other assumptions had been used in the current period, stock-based compensation expense could have been materially impacted. Furthermore, if management uses different assumptions in future periods, stock-based compensation expense could be materially impacted in future years.

=============================================================================


Increases in gallon shipments, price increases and product/geographic mix in selected countries positively impacted our 2002 Net Operating Revenues. The improvements in these core business factors reflected a positive trend in 2002. Furthermore, the acquisitions of our interests in Odwalla, Inc. (Odwalla), CCDA Waters, L.L.C. (CCDA) and CBC also contributed to the increased 2002 Net Operating Revenues.

The most significant structural change (defined by the Company as purchasing and disposing of bottling and canning operations) in 2002 was the consolidation of CCEAG. This consolidation was partially offset by the sale and resulting deconsolidation of our Russian and Baltics bottling operations.

The combined 2002 Net Operating Revenues for the structural change of CCEAG and the acquisitions of our interests in Odwalla, CCDA and CBC were approximately $1.5 billion. The Russian and Baltics bottling operations accounted for approximately $150 million of 2001 Net Operating Revenues.

The continued strength of the U.S. dollar in 2002 relative to most major currencies had a negative impact on Net Operating Revenues. The stronger U.S. dollar compared to the Japanese yen, the Argentine peso, the Mexican peso, the Brazilian real, the Venezuelan bolivar and the South African rand was partially offset by strength in the euro. For further discussion of the impact of exchange and expected trends, refer to the heading "Exchange."

In 2001, gallon shipments and price increases in selected countries positively impacted Net Operating Revenues, offset by a negative impact for product/geographic mix.

Consolidation of the Nordic and Brazilian bottling operations in 2001 represented structural changes increasing Net Operating Revenues. The sale of our previously owned vending operations in Japan and canning operations in Germany offset these increases.

Again, a stronger U.S. dollar in 2001 relative to most major currencies had a negative impact on Net Operating Revenues.

Our Cost of Goods Sold increased in 2002 compared to 2001 primarily as a result of the acquisitions of our interests in Odwalla, CCDA and CBC and the structural change of CCEAG. Total combined 2002 Cost of Goods Sold for these entities was $844 million.

Our decrease in 2002 Gross Profit margin was due primarily to the consolidation of lower-margin operations, primarily the CCEAG structural change and the acquisitions of our interests in Odwalla, CCDA and CBC. These decreases were partially offset by the sale and resulting deconsolidation of our Russian and Baltics bottling operations. Our Gross Profit margin increase in 2001 compared to 2000 was primarily due to the sale in 2001 of our Japan vending and German canning operations, partially offset by the consolidation in 2001 of the Nordic and Brazilian bottling operations. Generally, bottling, canning and vending operations produce higher net revenues but lower gross margins compared to concentrate and syrup operations.

In 2000, certain bottlers reduced their concentrate inventory levels. This was based on a joint review performed by the Company and our bottlers around the world in order to determine the optimum level of bottler concentrate inventories. The joint review established that opportunities existed to reduce the level of concentrate inventory carried by bottlers in various regions of the world. During the first half of 2000, bottlers in these regions reduced concentrate inventory levels, the majority of which occurred during the first three months of 2000. This reduction in bottler concentrate inventory levels negatively impacted our Company's concentrate sales, thereby reducing Net Operating Revenues, Cost of Goods Sold and Gross Profit.

============================================================================


The 2002 Net Operating Revenues for Europe, Eurasia and Middle East increased primarily due to the consolidation of CCEAG. Net Operating Revenues in 2002 for Latin America were negatively impacted by exchange fluctuations and challenging economic conditions, primarily in Argentina, Venezuela and Brazil. As indicated by the table, changes from 2000 to 2001 were not significant.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
The following table includes the significant components of Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (in millions):


YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,                 2002            2001            2000

Selling, General and
  Administrative Expenses           $  7,001        $  6,149        $  6,016
============================================================================


Acquisitions of our interests in Odwalla, CCDA and CBC and the structural change of CCEAG increased selling expenses by $430 million and general and administrative expenses by $136 million in 2002. These increases were partially offset by the sale and resulting deconsolidation of our Russian and Baltics bottling operations.

The adoption of SFAS No. 142 and its related impact is discussed under "Application of Critical Accounting Policies" and in Notes 1 and 4. Upon adoption of SFAS No. 142, intangible assets that have indefinite lives and goodwill previously amortized are no longer amortized. Due to the adoption of SFAS No. 142, amortization expense for 2002 was reduced by approximately $60 million, and future years will be reduced by approximately $60 million annually. Substantially all such amortization expense was included in the general and administrative expenses line item.

As discussed under "Application of Critical Accounting Policies" and in Notes 1 and 13, effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted the preferable fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 and selected the modified prospective transition method under the provisions of SFAS No. 148. Prior to 2002, our Company accounted for stock-based compensation under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB No. 25 and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation expense for stock options was reflected in Net Income for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000. In 2002, compensation expense was recognized as if the fair value method of SFAS No. 123 had been applied from its original effective date.

Acquisitions and structural changes increased Selling, General and Administrative Expenses by approximately $45 million in 2001 compared to 2000. The consolidation in 2001 of the Nordic and Brazilian bottling operations accounted for a majority of the increase. The sale in 2001 of our Japan vending and German canning operations partially offset this increase.

A stronger U.S. dollar relative to most major currencies decreased Selling, General and Administrative Expenses in 2002 compared to 2001 and also in 2001 compared to 2000.

Pension Benefits
Net periodic cost for our defined benefit pension plans was $72 million, $62 million and $39 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. These expenses are included in general and administrative expenses.

To develop our expected long-term rate of return assumption on our pension plan assets, our Company uses long-term historical actual return experience, the expected investment mix of the plans' assets and estimates of future long-term investment returns. The expected long-term rate of return assumption is used in the net periodic pension cost calculation. This assumption is reviewed and set annually. For 2003, our weighted-average expected long-term rate of return assumption will be approximately 7 1/4 percent compared to 8 1/4 percent in 2002. The discount rate assumption used for pension accounting reflects rates available on high-quality, fixed-income debt instruments on December 31 of each year.

60 - THE COCA-COLA COMPANY


FINANCIAL REVIEW INCORPORATING MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

The rate of compensation increase is another assumption used for pension accounting and is determined by the Company based upon annual reviews.

The decrease in our expected weighted-average, long-term rate of return assumption, a decrease in our discount rate assumption and increased amortization of actuarial losses is expected to increase our net periodic pension cost by $30 million to $40 million in 2003 compared to 2002.

Our Company funds the U.S. qualified pension plans in accordance with Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) regulations for the minimum annual contribution and with Internal Revenue Service (IRS) regulations for the maximum annual contribution allowable as a tax deduction. International pension plans are funded in accordance with local laws and income tax regulations.

As of December 31, 2002, the projected benefit obligation of the primary qualified U.S. pension plan was $1,205 million, and the fair value of plan assets was $1,028 million. In 2002, we made a contribution to this plan of $124 million, which was the maximum tax-deductible contribution allowed by the IRS. In January 2003, we made a contribution to the plan of $145 million.

As of December 31, 2002, the projected benefit obligation of all other pension plans was $977 million, and the fair value of all other pension plan assets was $424 million. The majority of this difference is attributable to an international pension plan for certain non-U.S. employees that is unfunded due to tax law restrictions, as well as our unfunded U.S. nonqualified pension plans. These U.S. nonqualified pension plans provide benefits for certain members of management that are not permitted to be funded through a qualified plan because of limits imposed by the Internal Revenue Code.

Refer to Note 14.

Other Operating Charges
During 2000, we recorded total Other Operating Charges of approximately $1,443 million. Of this $1,443 million, approximately $405 million related to the impairment of certain bottling, manufacturing and intangible assets; approximately $850 million related to the Realignment; and approximately $188 million related to the settlement terms of a class action discrimination lawsuit.

In the first quarter of 2000, we recorded charges of approximately $405 million related to the impairment of certain bottling, manufacturing and intangible assets, primarily within our Indian bottling operations. These impairment charges were recorded to reduce the carrying value of the identified assets to fair value. Fair value was derived using cash flow analysis. The assumptions used in the cash flow analysis were consistent with those used in our internal planning. The assumptions included estimates of future growth in unit cases, gross margins, the impact of exchange rates and tax rates and incentives. The charge was primarily the result of our revised outlook for the Indian beverage market including the future expected tax environment. The remaining carrying value of long-lived assets within our Indian bottling operations, immediately after recording the impairment charge, was approximately $300 million.

In the first quarter of 2000, the Company initiated the Realignment, which reduced our workforce around the world and transferred responsibilities from our corporate headquarters to local revenue-generating operating units. The intent of the Realignment was to effectively align our corporate resources, support systems and business culture to fully leverage the local capabilities of our system.

Employees were separated from almost all functional areas of the Company's operations, and certain activities were outsourced to third parties. The total number of employees separated as of December 31, 2000 was approximately 5,200. Employees separated from the Company as a result of the Realignment were offered severance or early retirement packages, as appropriate, which included both financial and nonfinancial components. The Realignment expenses included costs associated with involuntary terminations, voluntary retirements and other direct costs associated with implementing the Realignment. Other direct costs included repatriating and relocating employees to local markets; asset write-downs; lease cancellation costs; and costs associated with the development, communication and administration of the Realignment. We recorded total charges of approximately $850 million related to the Realignment. During 2000, the Company achieved approximately $150 million in savings from the Realignment. Refer to Note 17.

In the fourth quarter of 2000, we recorded charges of approximately $188 million related to the settlement terms of, and direct costs related to, a class action discrimination lawsuit. The monetary settlement included cash payments to fund back pay, compensatory damages, a promotional achievement fund and attorneys' fees. In addition, the Company introduced a wide range of training, monitoring

and mentoring programs. Of the $188 million, $50 million was donated to The Coca-Cola Foundation to continue its broad range of community support programs. In 2001, our Company paid out substantially all of this settlement.

=============================================================================


As demonstrated by the table above, the percentage contribution by each operating segment to Operating Income fluctuated from year to year. Operating Income was influenced by a variety of factors and events, primarily the following items:

- In 2002, Latin America was negatively impacted by exchange fluctuations and challenging economic conditions, primarily in Argentina, Venezuela and Brazil.

- In 2002, Operating Income was reduced by $119 million for North America, $24 million for Africa, $51 million for Europe, Eurasia and the Middle East, $22 million for Latin America, $51 million for Asia and $106 million for Corporate to include the impact of adopting the fair value method of accounting for stock-based compensation under SFAS No. 123.

- In the first quarter of 2000, Operating Income was reduced by $3 million for North America, $397 million for Asia and $5 million for Corporate related to the other operating charges recorded for asset impairments.

- The Realignment in 2000 accounted for operating charges of $132 million for North America, $40 million for Africa, $198 million for Europe, Eurasia and Middle East, $59 million for Latin America, $127 million for Asia and $294 million for Corporate.

- In 2000, a $188 million charge was recorded by Corporate related to the settlement terms of a discrimination lawsuit, including a donation to The Coca-Cola Foundation.

- As previously discussed, certain bottlers reduced their concentrate inventory levels in 2000. This reduction negatively impacted 2000 Operating Income and Operating Margin.

Interest Income and Interest Expense
A majority of the 2002 decrease of $116 million in Interest Income compared to 2001 was due to lower interest rates earned on short-term investments during 2002. Nevertheless, the Company continues to benefit from cash invested in locations outside the United States earning higher interest rates than could be obtained within the United States. Conversely, a majority of our Interest Expense is incurred on borrowings in the United States. The 2002 decrease in interest expense of $90 million versus 2001 was due mainly to both a decrease in average commercial paper borrowings and lower interest rates for commercial paper borrowings. The decrease in interest expense for commercial paper borrowings was partially offset by increased interest expense on long-term debt related to the consolidation of CCEAG (refer to Note 18) and the issuance during 2002 of $750 million of notes due June 1, 2005. The proceeds from this $750 million long-term debt issuance were used to reduce current debt (refer to Note 7).

In 2001, our Interest Income decreased by $20 million primarily due to lower interest rates. Interest Expense decreased in 2001 by $158 million due to both a decrease in average commercial paper borrowings and lower interest rates. In 2001, the Company used cash flow from operations after capital expenditures to reduce commercial paper borrowings.

FINANCIAL REVIEW INCORPORATING MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

Equity Income (Loss)
A $232 million increase in 2002 Equity Income (Loss), as compared to 2001, was due to the overall improving health of the Coca-Cola bottling system around the world and the favorable impact of reduced amortization resulting from the adoption of SFAS No. 142. Specific items with a positive impact to Equity Income
(Loss) were the increase in equity income for Coca-Cola Enterprises of approximately $209 million due to improving trends in operating and financial performance (which included a $90 million favorable impact resulting from the adoption of SFAS No. 142) and the reduction in amortization expenses of approximately $60 million for investments other than Coca-Cola Enterprises resulting from the implementation of SFAS No. 142. Due to the adoption of SFAS No. 142, Equity Income (Loss) for 2002 was increased by approximately $150 million, and future years will be increased by approximately $150 million annually as a result of reduced amortization expense. These increases were offset by selected equity method investments in Latin America that have been adversely impacted by ongoing economic difficulties, as well as our Company's share of impairment and restructuring charges taken by certain equity method investees in Latin America during the third quarter of 2002. The Company's share of these charges was approximately $33 million.

For 2002, our Company's share of income from equity method investees was also favorably impacted by a benefit related to our share of the gain on the sale by Cervejarias Kaiser S.A. (Kaiser S.A.) of its interests in Cervejarias Kaiser Brazil, Ltda to Molson Inc. (refer to Note 16). Approximately $21 million of our share of the pretax gain from the sale by Kaiser S.A. was recorded in Equity Income (Loss) with the remaining portion, $22 million, recorded in the caption Other Income (Loss)--Net.

Our Company's share of income from equity method investments in 2001, versus a loss in 2000, was due primarily to an improvement in operating performance by the majority of our equity investees and the impact of impairment charges on equity investees in 2000 as discussed below.

As of January 1, 2001, Coca-Cola Enterprises changed its method of accounting for infrastructure development payments received from the Company. Prior to this change, Coca-Cola Enterprises recognized these payments as offsets to incremental expenses of the programs in the periods in which they were incurred. Coca-Cola Enterprises now recognizes the infrastructure development payments received from the Company as income when obligations are performed under the contracts. Because we eliminate the financial effect of significant intercompany transactions (including transactions with equity method investees), this change in accounting method by Coca-Cola Enterprises had no impact on the results of our operations. Refer to Note 2.

In 2000, our Company's share of losses from equity method investments totaled $289 million. This included a charge of approximately $306 million for the Company's portion of a charge recorded by Coca-Cola Amatil to reduce the carrying value of its investment in the Philippines. In addition, Panamerican Beverages, Inc. (Panamco) wrote down selected assets, including the impairment of the value of its Venezuelan operating unit. The Company's portion of this charge was approximately $124 million. Also contributing to the equity losses were charges recorded by investees in Eurasia and the Middle East. These charges were partially offset by an overall improvement in operating performance by our investee bottlers and the positive impact of lower tax rates on current and deferred taxes at CCEAG.

Other Income (Loss)--Net
Other Income (Loss)--Net in 2002 was principally composed of foreign currency exchange losses of approximately $118 million, the accretion of the discounted value of the CCEAG liability of approximately $38 million (refer to Note 18), the items discussed in this section below and minority interest accruals. The losses on currency exchange primarily occurred in Latin America and Africa, which experienced significant devaluation of currencies. The increase in the minority interest accruals primarily related to the acquisitions of our interests in CBC and CCDA. Refer to Note 18.

In the first quarter of 2002, our Company recorded a noncash pretax charge of approximately $157 million, primarily related to the write-down of certain investments in Latin America. This write-down reduced the carrying value of the investments to fair value. The charge was primarily the result of the economic developments in Argentina during the first quarter of 2002, including the devaluation of the Argentine peso and the severity of the unfavorable economic conditions. The Company expects to realize a minimal tax benefit from this write-down. The impact on 2002 diluted earnings per share was an after-tax reduction of approximately $0.06 per share

2002 ANNUAL REPORT - 63


FINANCIAL REVIEW INCORPORATING MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

As previously noted, $22 million of our share of the pretax gain from the sale by Kaiser S.A. was recorded in Other Income (Loss)--Net in 2002.

In 2001, Other Income (Loss)--Net declined to $39 million from $99 million in 2000, primarily reflecting the impact of a gain related to the merger of Coca-Cola Beverages and Hellenic Bottling Company S.A. during the third quarter of 2000. This merger resulted in a decrease of our Company's equity ownership interest from approximately 51 percent of Coca-Cola Beverages to approximately 24 percent of the combined entity, CCHBC. As a result of our Company's decreased equity ownership, a tax-free noncash gain of approximately $118 million was recognized.

Gains on Issuances of Stock by Equity Investee
If and when an equity investee issues its stock to third parties at a price in excess of our book value, our Company's equity in the underlying net assets of that investee increases. We generally record an increase to our investment account and a corresponding gain for these transactions. In July 2001, Coca-Cola Enterprises completed its acquisition of Hondo Incorporated and Herbco Enterprises, Inc., collectively known as Herb Coca-Cola. The transaction was valued at approximately $1.4 billion, with approximately 30 percent of the transaction funded with the issuance of approximately 25 million shares of Coca-Cola Enterprises common stock, and the remaining portion funded through debt and assumed debt. The issuance of shares resulted in a noncash pretax gain for our Company of approximately $91 million. This gain represents the increase in our Company's equity in the underlying net assets of the related investee. No gains on issuances of stock by equity investees were recorded to our statements of income during 2002 or 2000. Refer to Note 3.

Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate reflects tax benefits derived from significant operations outside the United States, which are generally taxed at rates lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 35 percent.

The effective tax rate for 2002 of 27.7 percent was impacted by two significant items: our share of the gain on the sale of Kaiser S.A. interests and the write-down of certain investments, primarily in Latin America. Excluding the impact of these items, our effective tax rate would have been approximately 27 percent for 2002. For 2003, the Company expects the ongoing effective tax rate to be approximately 27 percent.

The decrease in our effective tax rate in 2001 was primarily due to effective tax planning and the impact that the impairment charges recorded in 2000 had on the 2000 effective tax rate. The 2000 effective tax rate was primarily the result of our inability to realize a tax benefit associated with the impairment charges recorded in 2000, as previously discussed under the headings "Other Operating Charges" and "Equity Income (Loss)," partially offset by the tax-free gain of approximately $118 million related to the merger of Coca-Cola Beverages and Hellenic Bottling Company S.A., previously discussed under the heading "Other Income (Loss)--Net." Refer to Note 16.

During the first quarter of 2000, the U.S. and Japan taxing authorities entered into an Advance Pricing Agreement (APA) whereby the level of royalties paid by Coca-Cola (Japan) Company, Ltd. (our Subsidiary) to our Company was established for the years 1993 through 2001. Pursuant to the terms of the APA, our Subsidiary filed amended returns for the applicable periods reflecting the negotiated royalty rate. These amended returns resulted in the payment during the first and second quarters of 2000 of additional Japanese taxes. The effect on our financial performance and our effective tax rate was not material, due primarily to offsetting tax credits utilized on our U.S. income tax returns. The majority of the offsetting tax credits were realized in the first quarter of 2002.

Cumulative Effect of Accounting Change for SFAS No. 142, Net of Income Taxes
The adoption of SFAS No. 142 is a required change in accounting principle, and the cumulative effect of adopting this standard as of January 1, 2002 resulted in a noncash, after-tax decrease to net income of $367 million for Company operations and $559 million for the Company's proportionate share of its equity method investees. As noted above, the adoption of this accounting standard resulted in a pretax reduction in 2002 amortization expense of approximately $60 million, and 2002 equity income increased by approximately $150 million. Due to the adoption of SFAS No. 142, future years' amortization expense will also be reduced by approximately $60 million annually, and equity income will increase by approximately $150 million annually as a result of reduced amortization for equity method investees. Refer to the heading "Application of Critical Accounting Policies" and Notes 1 and 4.

Recent Developments
During the first quarter of 2003, the Company initiated steps to streamline and simplify its operations, primarily in North America and Germany.

In North America, the Company is integrating the operations of our three separate North American business units-Coca-Cola North America (including our interest in CCDA), The Minute Maid Company (including our Odwalla business) and Fountain. The integration is expected to result in a headcount reduction of approximately 1,000 people, with the identification of the individuals expected to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2003.

In Germany, CCEAG has taken steps to improve efficiency in sales and distribution, including the closure of three bottling plants in 2003. The streamlining initiative is expected to affect approximately 900 employees in Germany.

The above initiatives are expected to result in a full-year 2003 charge to earnings of approximately $400 million on a pretax basis. The charge will be recorded primarily in the first and second quarters of 2003, with certain amounts impacting the second half of 2003.

As a result of the above initiatives, the Company's financial results are expected to benefit by at least $50 million (pretax) in 2003 and at least $100 million (pretax) on an annualized basis beginning in 2004.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We believe our ability to generate cash from operations to reinvest in our business is one of our fundamental financial strengths. We expect cash flows from operations to be strong in 2003 and in future years. For the five-year period from 2003 through 2007, we estimate that cumulative cash flows from operations will be approximately $31 billion to $33 billion. Accordingly, our Company expects to meet all our financial commitments and operating needs during this time frame. Cash will be used for marketing commitments and other operating commitments, as well as investing and financing activities, including capital expenditures, dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions and debt repayment.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities and Investing Activities
Our statements of cash flows are summarized as follows (in millions):

Cash flows from operating activities increased by 15 percent for 2002 compared to 2001 primarily as a result of improved worldwide business operating results. Additionally, collection of tax receivables in 2002 of approximately $280 million in connection with the APA (refer to Note 15) increased our cash flows. These increases were partially offset by the following:

- pension plan contributions of approximately $124 million made during the second quarter of 2002;
- a stronger U.S. dollar.

Cash provided by operating activities in 2001 increased 15 percent from 2000. Solid 2001 business results primarily contributed to this increase. Additionally, 2000 operating cash flows were unfavorably impacted by the previously mentioned planned inventory reduction by certain bottlers as discussed under the heading "Net Operating Revenues," cash used in 2000 related to Realignment payments (refer to Note 17), and tax payments made pursuant to the terms of the APA. Refer to Note 15. These items were partially offset by a stronger U.S. dollar in 2001.

During 2002, cash outlays for investing activities included purchases of property, plant and equipment of $851 million and the acquisitions of our interests in CBC and CCDA for total combined consideration of approximately $328 million (refer to Note 18). These items were partially offset by the receipt of approximately $146 million in 2002 related to the 2001 sale of our Company's ownership interests in various Russian bottling operations.

The acquisitions of the Brazilian and Nordic bottling operations and Odwalla, together with the increased purchases of property, plant and equipment, primarily caused a $23 million increase in cash flows used in investing activities in 2001 versus 2000. Proceeds received from the sale of our Japan vending operations partially offset this increase.

Total capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment (including our investments in information technology) and the percentage of such totals by operating segment for 2002, 2001 and 2000 are as follows:

Issuances and payments of debt included both short-term and long-term financing activities. The Company's commercial paper borrowings normally mature in less than three months from the date of issuance. On December 31, 2002, we had $2,331 million in lines of credit and other short- term credit facilities available, of which approximately $353 million was outstanding. All of this $353 million relates to our international subsidiaries.

The issuances of debt in 2002 primarily included $832 million of issuances of commercial paper with maturities over 90 days and $750 million in issuances of long-term notes due June 1, 2005. The payments of debt in 2002 primarily included $816 million related to commercial paper with maturities over 90 days, net payments of $1,280 million related to commercial paper with maturities less than 90 days and the $150 million redemption of 6 5/8 percent U.S. dollar notes.

The issuances of debt in 2001 and 2000 primarily included $2,383 million and $3,576 million, respectively, of issuances of commercial paper with maturities over 90 days. In 2001, we also had a $500 million issuance of long-term debt. The payments of debt in 2001 and 2000 primarily included $3,864 million and $3,624 million, respectively, related to commercial paper with maturities over 90 days. Net issuances related to commercial paper with maturities less than 90 days were $40 million in 2001. Net payments related to commercial paper with maturities less than 90 days were $317 million in 2000.

During 2002 and 2001, the Company repurchased common stock under the share repurchase plan authorized by our Board of Directors in October 1996. Our Company expects to make share repurchases of approximately $1.5 billion in 2003. As cash flows are expected to increase in subsequent years, our subsequent share repurchases are also expected to increase.

Dividends have increased every year for each of the last 41 years, and we expect these increases to continue in the future.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements - In accordance with the definition under new Securities and Exchange Commission rules, the following qualify as off-balance sheet arrangements:

- any obligation under certain guarantees or contracts;

- a retained or contingent interest in assets transferred to an unconsolidated entity or similar entity or similar arrangement that serves as credit, liquidity or market risk support to that entity for such assets;

- any obligation under certain derivative instruments;

- any obligation under a material variable interest held by the registrant in an unconsolidated entity that provides financing, liquidity, market risk or credit risk support to the registrant, or engages in leasing, hedging or research and development services with the registrant.

The discussion below addresses each of the above items for our Company.

On December 31, 2002, our Company was contingently liable for guarantees of indebtedness owed by third parties in the amount of $494 million. Management concluded that the likelihood of any material amounts being paid by our Company is not probable. We do not provide any other guarantees. As of December 31, 2002, we are not liable for the debt of any unconsolidated entity, and we do not have any retained or contingent interest in assets as defined above. Additionally, all of our derivative instruments are recorded in our balance sheets. Refer to Notes 10 and 11.

Our Company has equity ownership interests in bottlers that we currently account for under the equity method of accounting. For certain bottlers, our Company holds variable interests such as providing financing and guarantees, in addition to our equity investments. As a result, these bottlers may be considered variable interest entities, and it is reasonably possible that the Company may be required to consolidate such variable interest entities when Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Interpretation No. 46 becomes effective on July 1, 2003. The difference between consolidation and the equity method impacts certain financial ratios because of the presentation of the detailed line items reported in the financial statements. However, consolidated net income for the period and our share-owners' equity at the end of the period are the same whether the investment is accounted for under the equity method or is consolidated. We do not expect this interpretation to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Exchange
Our international operations are subject to certain opportunities and risks, including currency fluctuations and government actions. We closely monitor our operations in each country and seek to adopt appropriate strategies that are responsive to changing economic and political environments and to fluctuations in foreign currencies.

We use approximately 53 functional currencies. Due to our global operations, weaknesses in some of these currencies are often offset by strengths in others. In 2002, 2001 and 2000, the weighted-average exchange rates for foreign currencies in which the Company conducts operations (all operating currencies), and for certain individual currencies, strengthened (weakened) against the U.S. dollar as follows:

These percentages do not include the effects of our hedging activities and, therefore, do not reflect the actual impact of fluctuations in exchange on our operating results. Our foreign currency management program is designed to mitigate, over time, a portion of the impact of exchange on Net Income and earnings per share. Taking into account the effects of our hedging activities, the impact of a stronger U.S. dollar reduced our Operating Income by approximately 3 percent in 2002, approximately 5 percent in 2001 and approximately 4 percent in 2000. Based on forecasts as of December 31, 2002, the Company expects exchange to have a neutral to slightly positive impact on our 2003 operating results when compared to 2002.

Exchange gains (losses)--net amounted to $(118) million in 2002, $(9) million in 2001 and $(12) million in 2000 and were recorded in Other Income
(Loss)--Net in our statements of income. Exchange gains (losses)--net includes the remeasurement of monetary assets and liabilities from certain currencies into functional currencies and the costs of hedging certain exposures of our balance sheet.

Refer to Note 10.

FINANCIAL POSITION

Our balance sheet as of December 31, 2002, as compared to our balance sheet as of December 31, 2001, was significantly impacted by our Company's acquisition of CCEAG. Prior to consolidation, our investment in CCEAG was recorded as an equity method investment. Thus, the $716 million decrease in Equity Method Investments-Other, Principally Bottling Companies was primarily driven by the consolidation of CCEAG. Upon consolidation of CCEAG, the individual balances were included in the Company's respective balance sheet line items. The consolidations of CCEAG, CCDA, CBC and Odwalla were the main reason for the following changes in the Company's balance sheet from December 31, 2001 to December 31, 2002:

(1) $215 million increase in Trade Accounts Receivable;

(2) $239 million increase in Inventories;

(3) $1,458 million increase in Property, Plant and Equipment;

(4) $974 million increase in goodwill, trademarks and other intangible assets;

(5) $1,299 million increase in Other Liabilities.

Additionally, the asset impairments recorded as a result of the adoption of SFAS No. 142, which was effective January 1, 2002, also impacted the December 31, 2002 balance sheet, by reducing the balances in both investments and Other Assets and goodwill, trademarks and other intangible assets. Refer to Notes 1 and 4.

The $1,482 million increase in the Company's Long-Term Debt during 2002 was primarily due to two factors. The first factor was the consolidation of CCEAG, which had the effect of increasing debt by $843 million as of December 31, 2002, of which approximately $800 million is classified as long-term. The second factor was the issuance during 2002 of $750 million of notes due June 1, 2005. The proceeds of this $750 million long-term debt issuance were used to reduce current debt.

IMPACT OF INFLATION AND CHANGING PRICES

Inflation affects the way we operate in many markets around the world. In general, we believe that over time we are able to increase prices to counteract the majority of the inflationary effects of increasing costs and to generate sufficient cash flows to maintain our productive capability.

NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS

Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted the preferable fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 using the modified prospective transition method under the provisions of SFAS No. 148. Refer to the above heading "Application of Critical Accounting Policies-Stock-Based Compensation" and Notes 1 and 13.

Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted SFAS No. 142. Refer to the above heading "Application of Critical Accounting Policies-Goodwill, Trademarks and Other Intangible Assets" and Notes 1 and 4.

Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement requires the following three-step approach for assessing and recognizing the impairment of long-lived assets: (1) consider whether indicators of impairment of long-lived assets are present; (2) if indicators of impairment are present, determine whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the

2002 ANNUAL REPORT - 69


FINANCIAL REVIEW INCORPORATING MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

assets in question is less than their carrying amount; and (3) if less, recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amount of the assets over their respective fair values. In addition, SFAS No. 144 provides more guidance on estimating cash flows when performing a recoverability test, requires that a long-lived asset to be disposed of other than by sale (such as abandoned) be classified as "held and used" until it is disposed of, and establishes more restrictive criteria to classify an asset as "held for sale." The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on our financial statements since it retained the fundamental provisions of SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," related to the recognition and measurement of the impairment of long-lived assets to be "held and used." However, we believe SFAS No. 144 is a statement impacting our critical accounting estimates for Other Assets and for Property, Plant and Equipment. For further discussion, refer to the heading "Application of Critical Accounting Policies--Recoverability of Noncurrent Assets."

Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 01-9, "Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor's Products." EITF Issue No. 01-9 codifies and reconciles the EITF consensuses on all or specific aspects of EITF Issues No. 00-14, "Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives," No. 00-22, "Accounting for 'Points' and Certain Other Time-Based or Volume-Based Sales Incentives Offers, and Offers for Free Products or Services to be Delivered in the Future," and No. 00-25, "Vendor Income Statement Characterization of Consideration Paid to a Reseller of the Vendor's Products," and identifies other related interpretive issues. The types of sales incentives provided by our Company to bottlers, resellers, vendors and customers of our Company's products principally include participation in sales promotion programs and volume-based incentives. Our Company adopted the provisions of EITF Issues No. 00-14 and No. 00-22 on January 1, 2001, resulting in the income statement reclassification of certain sales incentives. Upon adoption of EITF Issues No. 00-14 and No. 00-22, the Company reduced both Net Operating Revenues and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses by approximately $580 million and $569 million for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. EITF Issue No. 01-9 required certain selling expenses incurred by the Company, not previously reclassified, to be classified as deductions from revenue. The adoption of the remaining items included in EITF Issue No. 01-9 resulted in the Company reducing both Net Operating Revenues and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses by approximately $2.5 billion in each of the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000. These reclassifications had no impact on Operating Income. The aggregate amount of funds provided by our Company to bottlers, resellers, vendors and customers of our Company's products was approximately $3.4 billion, $3.1 billion and $3.1 billion, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. The increase in 2002 compared to 2001 was primarily due to structural changes.

Our Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations to be accounted for by a single method--the purchase method. Furthermore, SFAS No. 141 requires recognition of intangible assets apart from goodwill if they arise from contractual or legal rights or if they are separable from goodwill. This statement did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In June 2002, the FASB issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF Issue No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as defined was recognized at the date of an entity's commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liability. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. This statement will impact the timing of our recognition of liabilities for costs associated with exit or disposal activities.

Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138. As discussed further in Note 10, the 2002 and 2001

financial statements were prepared in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No.
133. Prior years' financial statements have not been restated. The 2000 financial statements were prepared in accordance with the applicable professional literature for derivatives and hedging instruments in effect at that time.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others." This interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in interim and annual financial statements about the obligations under certain guarantees. Our Company adopted the disclosure provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 45 as of December 31, 2002. FASB Interpretation No. 45 also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of this interpretation are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. We do not currently provide significant guarantees on a routine basis. As a result, we do not currently believe this interpretation will have a material impact on our financial statements. To the extent that our Company enters into any such guarantees after December 31, 2002, we will record the fair value as an expense.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." This interpretation addresses the consolidation of business enterprises (variable interest entities) to which the usual condition of consolidation does not apply. This interpretation focuses on financial interests that indicate control. It concludes that in the absence of clear control through voting interests, a company's exposure (variable interest) to the economic risks and potential rewards from the variable interest entity's assets and activities are the best evidence of control. Variable interests are rights and obligations that convey economic gains or losses from changes in the values of the variable interest entity's assets and liabilities. Variable interests may arise from financial instruments, service contracts, nonvoting ownership interests and other arrangements. If an enterprise holds a majority of the variable interests of an entity, it would be considered the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary would be required to include assets, liabilities and the results of operations of the variable interest entity in its consolidated financial statements. This interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities which are created after or for which control is obtained after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities created prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions would be applied effective July 1, 2003. Refer to the heading "Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Aggregate Contractual Obligations."

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain written and oral statements made by our Company and subsidiaries or with the approval of an authorized executive officer of our Company may constitute "forward-looking statements" as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements made in this report and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Generally, the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "project," "will" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All statements which address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future--including statements relating to volume growth, share of sales and earnings per share growth and statements expressing general optimism about future operating results--are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our Company's historical experience and our present expectations or projections. As and when made, management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements since such statements speak only as of the date when made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

2002 ANNUAL REPORT - 71


FINANCIAL REVIEW INCORPORATING MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

The following are some of the factors that could cause our Company's actual results to differ materially from the expected results described in or underlying our Company's forward-looking statements:

- Economic and political conditions, especially in international markets, including civil unrest, product boycotts, governmental changes and restrictions on the ability to transfer capital across borders. Without limiting the preceding sentence, the current unstable economic and political conditions and civil unrest in the Middle East and Venezuela, potential or actual conflicts in Iraq, North Korea or elsewhere, or the continuation or escalation of terrorism, could have adverse impacts on our Company's business results or financial condition.

- Changes in the nonalcoholic beverages business environment. These include, without limitation, changes in consumer preferences, competitive product and pricing pressures and our ability to gain or maintain share of sales in the global market as a result of actions by competitors. Factors such as these could impact our earnings, share of sales and volume growth.

- Foreign currency rate fluctuations, interest rate fluctuations and other capital market conditions. Most of our exposures to capital markets, including foreign currency and interest rates, are managed on a consolidated basis, which allows us to net certain exposures and, thus, take advantage of any natural offsets. We use derivative financial instruments to reduce our net exposure to financial risks. There can be no assurance, however, that our financial risk management program will be successful in reducing capital market exposures.

- Adverse weather conditions, which could reduce demand for Company products.

- The effectiveness of our advertising, marketing and promotional programs.

- Fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials and the ability to maintain favorable supplier arrangements and relationships.

- Our ability to achieve earnings forecasts, which are generated based on projected volumes and sales of many product types, some of which are more profitable than others. There can be no assurance that we will achieve the projected level or mix of product sales.

- Changes in laws and regulations, including changes in accounting standards, taxation requirements (including tax rate changes, new tax laws and revised tax law interpretations), competition laws and environmental laws in domestic or foreign jurisdictions.

- Our ability to penetrate developing and emerging markets, which also depends on economic and political conditions, and how well we are able to acquire or form strategic business alliances with local bottlers and make necessary infrastructure enhancements to production facilities, distribution networks, sales equipment and technology. Moreover, the supply of products in developing markets must match the customers' demand for those products, and due to product, price and cultural differences, there can be no assurance of product acceptance in any particular market.

- The uncertainties of litigation, as well as other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in our Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

The foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive.

76 - THE COCA-COLA COMPANY


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

NOTE 1: ORGANIZATION AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Organization
The Coca-Cola Company is predominantly a manufacturer, distributor and marketer of nonalcoholic beverage concentrates and syrups. When used in these notes, the terms "Company," "we," "us" or "our" mean The Coca-Cola Company and its divisions and subsidiaries. Operating in more than 200 countries worldwide, we primarily sell our concentrates and syrups, as well as some finished beverages, to bottling and canning operations, distributors, fountain wholesalers and fountain retailers. We also market and distribute juices and juice drinks and certain water products. Additionally, we have ownership interests in bottling and canning operations. We have significant markets for our products in all the world's geographic regions.

Consolidation and Basis of Presentation
Our Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of our Company and all subsidiaries. We consolidate all entities that our Company controls. Under current accounting guidance, our Company is not permitted to consolidate companies we do not control. We use the equity method to account for our investments in companies in which we have the ability to exercise significant influence over operating and financial policies. Consolidated net income includes our Company's share of the net earnings of these companies. The difference between consolidation and the equity method impacts certain financial ratios because of the presentation of the detailed line items reported in the financial statements. We account for our investments in other companies that we do not control and for which we do not have the ability to exercise significant influence under the cost method. In accordance with the cost method, the assets are recorded at cost or fair value, as appropriate. Our Company eliminates from our financial results all significant intercompany transactions, including transactions with equity method investees.

Certain amounts in the prior years' financial statements have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Revenue Recognition
Our Company recognizes revenue when title of our products is transferred to our bottling partners or our customers.

Advertising Costs
Our Company expenses production costs of print, radio, television and other advertisements as of the first date the advertisements take place. Advertising expenses included in Selling, General and Administrative Expenses were $1,775 million in 2002, $1,970 million in 2001 and $1,655 million in 2000. As of December 31, 2002 and 2001, advertising production costs of approximately $170 million and $142 million, respectively, were recorded primarily in Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets and noncurrent Other Assets in our balance sheets.

Stock-Based Compensation
Our Company currently sponsors stock option plans and restricted stock award plans. Refer to Note 13. Prior to 2002, our Company accounted for those plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB Opinion No. 25, "Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" (APB No. 25) and related interpretations. No stock-based employee compensation expense for stock options was reflected in net income for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, as all stock options granted under those plans had an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant. Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted the preferable fair value recognition provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Our Company selected the modified prospective method of adoption described in SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation-Transition and Disclosure." Compensation cost recognized in 2002 is the same as that which would have been recognized had the fair value method of SFAS No. 123 been applied from its original effective date. In accordance with the modified prospective method of adoption, results for prior years have not been restated.

=============================================================================

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Issuances of Stock by Equity Investees
When one of our equity investees issues additional shares to third parties, our percentage ownership interest in the investee decreases. In the event the issuance price per share is more or less than our average carrying amount per share, we recognize a noncash gain or loss on the issuance. This noncash gain or loss, net of any deferred taxes, is generally recognized in our net income in the period the change of ownership interest occurs.

If gains have been previously recognized on issuances of an equity investee's stock and shares of the equity investee are subsequently repurchased by the equity investee, gain recognition does not occur on issuances subsequent to the date of a repurchase until shares have been issued in an amount equivalent to the number of repurchased shares. This type of transaction is reflected as an equity transaction, and the net effect is reflected in our balance sheets. Refer to Note 3.

Net Income Per Share
We compute basic net income per share by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted net income per share includes the dilutive effect of stock-based compensation awards, if any.

Cash Equivalents
We classify marketable securities that are highly liquid and have maturities of three months or less at the date of purchase as cash equivalents.

Inventories
Inventories consist primarily of raw materials and supplies and are valued at the lower of cost or market. In general, we determine cost on the basis of average cost or first-in, first-out methods.

Recoverability of Investments
Management periodically assesses the recoverability of our Company's investments. For publicly traded investments, readily available quoted market prices are an indication of the fair value of our Company's investments. For non-publicly traded investments, management assesses fair value based on valuation methodologies, as appropriate, including discounted cash flows, estimates of sales proceeds and external appraisals. If an investment is considered to be impaired and the decline in value is other than temporary, we record an appropriate write-down.

Other Assets
Our Company advances payments to certain customers for marketing to fund activities intended to generate profitable volume. Advance payments are also made to certain customers for distribution rights. Additionally, our Company invests in infrastructure programs with our bottlers that are directed at strengthening our bottling system and increasing unit case volume. Management periodically evaluates the recoverability of these assets by preparing estimates of sales volume, the resulting gross profit, cash flows and other factors. The costs of these programs are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets and noncurrent Other Assets and are subsequently amortized over the periods to be directly benefited. Amortization expense for infrastructure programs was $176 million, $222 million and $275 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. Refer to Note 2.

Property, Plant and Equipment
We state Property, Plant and Equipment at cost and depreciate such assets principally by the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Management assesses the recoverability of the carrying amount of Property, Plant and Equipment if certain events or changes occur, such as a significant decrease in market value of the assets or a significant change in the business climate in a particular market.

Goodwill, Trademarks and Other Intangible Assets
Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." The adoption of SFAS No. 142 required an initial impairment assessment involving a comparison of the fair value of goodwill, trademarks and other intangible assets to current carrying value. Upon adoption, we recorded a loss for the cumulative effect of accounting change for SFAS No. 142, net of income taxes, of $367 million for Company operations and $559 million for equity investees. We did not restate prior periods for the adoption of SFAS No. 142. Trademarks and other intangible assets determined to have indefinite useful lives are not amortized. We test such trademarks and other intangible assets with indefinite useful lives for impairment annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that an asset might be impaired. Trademarks and other intangible assets determined to have definite lives are amortized over their useful lives. We review such trademarks and other intangible assets with definite lives for impairment to ensure they are appropriately valued if conditions exist that may indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable. Such conditions may include an economic downturn in a geographic market or a change in the assessment of future operations. Goodwill is not amortized. We perform tests for impairment of goodwill annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate it might be impaired. Such tests include comparing the fair value of a reporting unit with its carrying value, including goodwill. Impairment assessments are performed using a variety of methodologies, including cash flow analysis, estimates of sales proceeds and independent appraisals. Where applicable, an appropriate discount rate is used, based on the Company's cost of capital rate or location-specific economic factors. Refer to Note 4.

Retirement Related Benefits
Using appropriate actuarial methods and assumptions, our Company's defined benefit pension plans are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 87, "Employers' Accounting for Pensions." Our nonpension postretirement benefits are accounted for in accordance with SFAS No. 106, "Employers' Accounting for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions." One of the principal assumptions used to calculate net periodic pension cost is the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets. The required use of the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets may result in recognized returns that are greater or less than the actual returns on those plan assets in any given year. Over time, however, the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets is designed to approximate the actual long-term returns.

Our Company uses long-term historical actual return information, the mix of investments that comprise plan assets, and future estimates of long-term investment returns by reference to external sources to develop our assumption of the expected long-term rate of return on plan assets.

The discount rate assumptions used to account for pension and nonpension postretirement benefit plans reflect the rates available on high-quality, fixed-income debt instruments on December 31 of each year. The rate of compensation increase is another significant assumption used for pension accounting and is determined by the Company based upon annual reviews.

For postretirement health care plan accounting, our Company reviews external data and our own historical trends for health care costs to determine the health care cost trend rate assumptions.

Refer to Note 14.

Contingencies
Our Company is involved in various legal proceedings. Due to their nature, such legal proceedings involve inherent uncertainties including, but not limited to, court rulings, negotiations between affected parties and governmental intervention. Management assesses the probability of loss for such contingencies and accrues a liability and/or discloses the relevant circumstances, as appropriate. Refer to Note 11.

Use of Estimates
In conformity with generally accepted accounting principles, the preparation of our financial statements requires our management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in our financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on our knowledge of current events and actions we may undertake in the future, actual results may ultimately differ from estimates.

New Accounting Standards
As previously mentioned, effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted the preferable fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123 using the modified prospective transition method under the provisions of SFAS No. 148. Refer to Note 13.

As previously mentioned, effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted SFAS No. 142. Refer to Note 4.

Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." This statement requires the following three-step approach for assessing and recognizing the impairment of long-lived assets: (1) consider whether indicators of impairment of long-lived assets are present; (2) if indicators of impairment are present, determine whether the sum of the estimated undiscounted future cash flows attributable to the assets in question is less than their carrying amount; and
(3) if less, recognize an impairment loss based on the excess of the carrying amounts of the assets over their respective fair values. In addition, SFAS No. 144 provides more guidance on estimating cash flows when performing a recoverability test, requires that a long-lived asset to be disposed of other than by sale (such as abandoned) be classified as "held and used" until it is disposed of, and establishes more restrictive criteria to classify an asset as "held for sale." The adoption of SFAS No. 144 did not have a material impact on our financial statements since it retained the fundamental provisions of SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of," related to the recognition and measurement of the impairment of long-lived assets to be "held and used."

Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 01-9, "Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor's Products." EITF Issue No. 01-9 codifies and reconciles the EITF consensuses on all or specific aspects of EITF Issues No. 00-14, "Accounting for Certain Sales Incentives," No. 00-22, "Accounting for 'Points' and Certain Other Time-Based or Volume-Based Sales Incentives Offers, and Offers for Free Products or Services to be Delivered in the Future," and No. 00-25, "Vendor Income Statement Characterization of Consideration Paid to a Reseller of the Vendor's Products," and identifies other related interpretive issues. The types of sales incentives provided by our Company to bottlers, resellers, vendors and customers of our Company's products principally include participation in sales promotion programs and volume-based incentives. Our Company adopted the provisions of EITF Issues No. 00-14 and No. 00-22 on January 1, 2001, resulting in the income statement reclassification of certain sales incentives. Upon adoption of EITF Issues No. 00-14 and No. 00-22, the Company reduced both Net Operating Revenues and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses by approximately $580 million and $569 million for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000, respectively. EITF Issue No. 01-9 required certain selling expenses incurred by the Company, not previously reclassified, to be classified as deductions from revenue. The adoption of the remaining items included in EITF Issue No. 01-9 resulted in the Company reducing both Net Operating Revenues and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses by approximately $2.5 billion in each of the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000. These reclassifications had no impact on Operating Income.

Our Company adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations," for all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 141 requires all business combinations to be accounted for by a single method-the purchase method. Furthermore, SFAS No. 141 requires recognition of intangible assets apart from goodwill if they arise from contractual or legal rights or if they are separable from goodwill. This statement did not have a material impact on our financial statements.

In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued SFAS No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." SFAS No. 146 addresses financial accounting and reporting for costs associated with exit or disposal activities and nullifies EITF Issue No. 94-3, "Liability Recognition for Certain Employee Termination Benefits and Other Costs to Exit an Activity (including Certain Costs Incurred in a Restructuring)." SFAS No. 146 requires that a liability for a cost associated with an exit or disposal activity be recognized when the liability is incurred. Under EITF Issue No. 94-3, a liability for an exit cost as defined was recognized at the date of an entity's commitment to an exit plan. SFAS No. 146 also establishes that fair value is the objective for initial measurement of the liability. SFAS No. 146 is effective for exit and disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. This statement will impact the timing of our recognition of liabilities for costs associated with exit or disposal activities.

Effective January 1, 2001, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities," as amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138. As discussed further in Note 10, the 2002 and 2001 Consolidated Financial Statements were prepared in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 133. Prior years' financial statements have not been restated. The 2000 financial statements were prepared in accordance with the applicable professional literature for derivatives and hedging instruments in effect at that time.

In November 2002, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 45, "Guarantor's Accounting and Disclosure Requirements for Guarantees, Including Indirect Guarantees of Indebtedness of Others." This interpretation elaborates on the disclosures to be made by a guarantor in interim and annual financial statements about the obligations under certain guarantees. Our Company adopted the disclosure provisions of FASB Interpretation No. 45 as of December 31, 2002. FASB Interpretation No. 45 also clarifies that a guarantor is required to recognize, at the inception of a guarantee, a liability for the fair value of the obligation undertaken in issuing the guarantee. The initial recognition and initial measurement provisions of this interpretation are applicable on a prospective basis to guarantees issued or modified after December 31, 2002. We do not currently provide significant guarantees on a routine basis. As a result, we do not currently believe this interpretation will have a material impact on our financial statements. To the extent that our Company enters into any such guarantees after December 31, 2002, we will record the fair value as an expense.

In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46, "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities." This interpretation addresses the consolidation of business enterprises (variable interest entities) to which the usual condition of consolidation does not apply. This interpretation focuses on financial interests that indicate control. It concludes that in the absence of clear control through voting interests, a company's exposure (variable interest) to the economic risks and potential rewards from the variable interest entity's assets and activities are the best evidence of control. Variable interests are rights and obligations that convey economic gains or losses from changes in the values of the variable interest entity's assets and liabilities. Variable interests may arise from financial instruments, service contracts, nonvoting ownership interests and other arrangements. If an enterprise holds a majority of the variable interests of an entity, it would be considered the primary beneficiary. The primary beneficiary would be required to include assets, liabilities and the results of operations of the variable interest entity in its financial statements. This interpretation applies immediately to variable interest entities that are created after or for which control is obtained after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities created prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions would be applied effective July 1, 2003.

Our Company has equity ownership interests in bottlers that we currently account for under the equity method of accounting. For certain bottlers, our Company holds variable interests such as providing financing and guarantees, in addition to our equity investments. As a result, these bottlers may be considered variable interest entities, and it is reasonably possible that the Company may be required to consolidate such variable interest entities when FASB Interpretation No. 46 becomes effective on July 1, 2003. The difference between consolidation and the equity method impacts certain financial ratios because of the presentation of the detailed line items reported in the financial statements. However, consolidated net income for the period and our share-owners' equity at the end of the period are the same whether the investment in the company is accounted for under the equity method or the company is consolidated. We do not expect this interpretation to have a material impact on our financial statements.

Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc.
Coca-Cola Enterprises Inc. (Coca-Cola Enterprises) is the largest marketer, distributor and producer of bottle and can liquid nonalcoholic refreshment in the world, operating in eight countries. On December 31, 2002, our Company owned approximately 38 percent of the outstanding common stock of Coca-Cola Enterprises, and accordingly, we account for our investment by the equity method of accounting. As of December 31, 2002, our proportionate share of the net assets of Coca-Cola Enterprises exceeded our investment by approximately $285 million.

Our net concentrate and syrup sales to Coca-Cola Enterprises were $4.3 billion in 2002, $3.9 billion in 2001 and $3.5 billion in 2000. Coca-Cola Enterprises purchases sweeteners through our Company; however, related collections from Coca-Cola Enterprises and payments to suppliers are not included in our statements of income. These transactions amounted to $325 million in 2002, $295 million in 2001 and $298 million in 2000. We also provide certain administrative and other services to Coca-Cola Enterprises under negotiated fee arrangements.

Cash payments made by us directly to Coca-Cola Enterprises for support of certain marketing activities and our participation with them in cooperative advertising and other marketing programs amounted to approximately $837 million, $606 million and $533 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Cash payments made by us directly to Coca-Cola Enterprises' customers for support of certain marketing activities and programs amounted to approximately $204 million, $282 million and $221 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Pursuant to cooperative advertising and trade agreements with Coca-Cola Enterprises, we received approximately $264 million, $252 million and $195 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively, from Coca-Cola Enterprises for local media and marketing program expense reimbursements.

In early 2002, our Company entered into a multi-year Sales Growth Initiative (SGI) agreement with Coca-Cola Enterprises to support profitable growth of our brands in their territories. Total cash support paid by our Company under the SGI agreement in 2002 was $150 million. This amount is included in the total support of certain marketing activities and our participation with them in cooperative marketing and other marketing programs noted above.

The entire SGI agreement may be terminated by either party by providing six months written notice to the other party; provided, however, that once an annual plan has been agreed upon by both companies, such termination shall not be effective until the end of the applicable plan year. In addition, during the first three quarters of any year, either party may cancel for ensuing quarters the sales volume growth targets and cash support funding provisions of the agreement for that year by providing 10 days' notice prior to the end of such quarter. Upon such quarterly cancellation, all other provisions of the agreement will remain in full force and effect. Volume growth funding is paid to Coca-Cola Enterprises equally over the four quarters of the program year within 30 days after the beginning of each quarter. Our Company recognizes a charge as sales volume growth is attained by Coca-Cola Enterprises. Such amounts are included as allowance deductions in Net Operating Revenues.

The agreement provides for refunds of funding advances should Coca-Cola Enterprises fail to attain specified minimum sales volume growth targets. Accordingly,

82 - THE COCA-COLA COMPANY


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

should Coca-Cola Enterprises not attain specified minimum cumulative sales volume growth targets in the ensuing quarters of a given year, amounts recognized to date for that year would be subject to refund.

Our Company recently agreed with Coca-Cola Enterprises to modify the terms of the SGI agreement relating to 2003 and beyond. Under the amended agreement, funding for 2003, anticipated to be $250 million under the original agreement, will decrease to $200 million. The new amendment, however, requires an additional $275 million in funding to Coca-Cola Enterprises over the next nine years (2003-2011) and significantly reduces the annual reductions in funding that were a part of the original agreement. In addition, the amendment provides for each company to retain all cost savings it generates from future system efficiency initiatives. The previous agreement called for an equal sharing between our Company and Coca-Cola Enterprises of combined proceeds above set targets.

Our Company previously entered into programs with Coca-Cola Enterprises designed to help it develop cold-drink infrastructure. Under these programs, our Company paid Coca-Cola Enterprises for a portion of the cost of developing the infrastructure necessary to support accelerated placements of cold-drink equipment. These payments support a common objective of increased sales of Coca-Cola beverages from increased availability and consumption in the cold-drink channel. In connection with these programs, Coca-Cola Enterprises agrees to:

(1) purchase and place specified numbers of venders/coolers or cold-drink equipment each year through 2008;

(2) maintain the equipment in service, with certain exceptions, for a period of at least 12 years after placement;

(3) maintain and stock the equipment in accordance with specified standards; and

(4) report to our Company minimum average annual unit case sales volume throughout the economic life of the equipment.

Coca-Cola Enterprises must achieve minimum average unit case sales volume for a 12-year period following the placement of equipment. These minimum average unit case sales volume levels ensure adequate gross profit from sales of concentrate to fully recover the capitalized costs plus a return on the Company's investment. Should Coca-Cola Enterprises fail to purchase the specified numbers of venders/coolers or cold-drink equipment for any calendar year through 2008, the parties agree to mutually develop a reasonable solution. Should no mutually agreeable solution be developed, or in the event that Coca-Cola Enterprises otherwise breaches any material obligation under the contracts and such breach is not remedied within a stated period, then Coca-Cola Enterprises would be required to repay a portion of the support funding as determined by our Company. No repayments by Coca-Cola Enterprises have ever been made under these programs. Our Company paid or committed to pay approximately $3 million in 2002, $159 million in 2001 and $223 million in 2000 to Coca-Cola Enterprises in connection with these infrastructure programs. These payments are recorded in Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets and noncurrent Other Assets and amortized as deductions in Net Operating Revenues over the 10-year period following the placement of the equipment. Our carrying values for these infrastructure programs with Coca-Cola Enterprises were approximately $879 million as of December 31, 2002 and $931 million as of December 31, 2001. Effective 2002 and thereafter, the Company has no further commitments under these programs.

As of January 1, 2001, Coca-Cola Enterprises changed its method of accounting for infrastructure development payments received from the Company. Prior to this change, Coca-Cola Enterprises recognized these payments as offsets to incremental expenses of the programs in the periods in which they were incurred. Coca-Cola Enterprises now recognizes the infrastructure development payments received from the Company as income when obligations under the contracts are performed. Because the Company eliminates the financial effect of significant intercompany transactions (including transactions with equity method investees), this change in accounting method had no impact on the financial statements of our Company.

If valued at the December 31, 2002 quoted closing price of Coca-Cola Enterprises shares, the value of our investment in Coca-Cola Enterprises exceeded our carrying value by approximately $2.7 billion.

Equity investments include nonbottling investees.

(1) 2001 and 2000 Net Operating Revenues and Gross Profit have been reduced for the impact of adopting EITF Issue No. 01-9.

Net sales to equity investees other than Coca-Cola Enterprises were $3.2 billion in 2002, $3.7 billion in 2001 and $3.5 billion in 2000. Total support payments, primarily marketing, made to equity investees other than Coca-Cola Enterprises, the majority of which are located outside the United States, were approximately $488 million, $636 million and $663 million for 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively.

Effective February 2002, our Company acquired control of Coca-Cola Erfrischungsgetraenke AG (CCEAG), the largest bottler in Germany. Prior to acquiring control, our Company accounted for CCEAG under the equity method of accounting. Refer to Note 18.

In the first quarter of 2002, our Company sold our bottling operations in the Baltics to Coca-Cola Hellenic Bottling Company S.A. (CCHBC). The proceeds from the sale of the Baltics bottlers were approximately equal to the carrying value of the investment.

In February 2001, the Company reached an agreement with Carlsberg A/S (Carlsberg) for the dissolution of Coca-Cola Nordic Beverages A/S (CCNB), a joint venture bottler in which our Company had a 49 percent ownership. In July 2001, our Company and San Miguel Corporation (San Miguel) acquired Coca-Cola Bottlers Philippines, Inc. (CCBPI) from Coca-Cola Amatil Limited (Coca-Cola Amatil). Refer to Note 18.

In November 2001, our Company sold nearly all of its ownership interests in various Russian bottling operations to CCHBC for approximately $170 million in cash and notes receivable, of which $146 million in notes receivable remained outstanding as of December 31, 2001. Such amount was subsequently collected in 2002. These interests consisted of the Company's 40 percent ownership interest in a joint venture with CCHBC that operates bottling territories in Siberia and parts of western Russia, together with our Company's nearly 100 percent interests in bottling operations with territories covering the remainder of Russia.

In July 2000, a merger of Coca-Cola Beverages plc (Coca-Cola Beverages) and Hellenic Bottling Company S.A. was completed to create CCHBC. This merger resulted in a decrease in our Company's equity ownership interest from approximately 51 percent of Coca-Cola Beverages to approximately 24 percent of the combined entity, CCHBC.

If valued at the December 31, 2002 quoted closing prices of shares actively traded on stock markets, the value of our investments in publicly traded bottlers other than Coca-Cola Enterprises exceeded our carrying value by approximately $810 million.

NOTE 3: ISSUANCES OF STOCK BY EQUITY INVESTEE

In July 2001, Coca-Cola Enterprises completed its acquisition of Hondo Incorporated and Herbco Enterprises, Inc., collectively known as Herb Coca-Cola. The transaction was valued at approximately $1.4 billion, with approximately 30 percent of the transaction funded with the issuance of approximately 25 million shares of Coca-Cola Enterprises common stock and the remaining portion funded through debt and assumed debt. The Coca-Cola Enterprises common stock issued was valued in an amount greater than the book value per share of our investment in Coca-Cola Enterprises. The shares issued, combined with other share issuances, exceeded the amount of repurchased shares under Coca-Cola Enterprises' share repurchase plan. As a result, the issuance of these shares resulted in a noncash pretax gain for our Company of

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

approximately $91 million. We provided deferred taxes of approximately $36 million on this gain. This transaction reduced our ownership in Coca-Cola Enterprises from approximately 40 percent to approximately 38 percent. No gains or losses on issuances of stock by equity investees were recorded during 2002 and 2000.

NOTE 4: GOODWILL, TRADEMARKS AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

In accordance with SFAS No. 142, goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets are no longer amortized but are reviewed annually for impairment. Our Company is the owner of some of the world's most valuable trademarks. As a result, certain trademarks and franchise rights to bottle and distribute such trademarked products are expected to generate positive cash flows for as long as the Company owns such trademarks and franchise rights for a particular territory. Given the Company's more than 100-year history, certain trademarks and the franchise rights to bottle and distribute products under our trademarks have been assigned indefinite lives. Intangible assets that are deemed to have definite lives are amortized over their useful lives. The amortization provisions of SFAS No. 142 apply to goodwill and intangible assets acquired after June 30, 2001. With respect to goodwill and intangible assets acquired prior to July 1, 2001, the Company began applying the new accounting rules effective January 1, 2002.

The adoption of SFAS No. 142 required the Company to perform an initial impairment assessment on all goodwill and indefinite lived intangible assets as of January 1, 2002. The Company compared the fair value of trademarks and other intangible assets to the current carrying value. Fair values were derived using discounted cash flow analyses. The assumptions used in these discounted cash flow analyses were consistent with our internal planning. Valuations were completed for intangible assets for both the Company and our equity method investees. For the Company's intangible assets, the cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle was an after-tax decrease to net income of approximately $367 million. For the Company's proportionate share of its equity method investees, the cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle was an after-tax decrease to net income of approximately $559 million. The deferred income tax benefit related to the cumulative effect of this change for the Company's intangible assets was approximately $94 million and for the Company's proportionate share of its equity method investees was approximately $123 million.

The impairment charges resulting in the after-tax decrease to net income for the cumulative effect of this change by applicable operating segment as of January 1, 2002 are as follows (in millions):

================================================================================


Of the Company's $226 million impairment for Latin America, approximately $113 million relates to Company-owned Brazilian bottlers' franchise rights. The Brazilian macroeconomic conditions, the devaluation of the currency and lower pricing impacted the valuation of these bottlers' franchise rights. The remainder of the $226 million primarily relates to a $109 million impairment for certain trademarks in Latin America. In early 1999, our Company formed a strategic partnership to market and distribute such trademark brands. The macroeconomic conditions and lower pricing depressed operating margins for these trademarks.

Of the $108 million impairment for the Company in Asia, $99 million relates to bottlers' franchise rights in our consolidated bottlers in our Southeast and West Asia Division. Difficult economic conditions impacted our business in Singapore, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Vietnam. As a result, bottlers in these countries experienced lower than expected volume and operating margins.

For Europe, Eurasia and Middle East equity method investees, a $400 million impairment was recorded for the Company's proportionate share related to bottlers' franchise rights. Of this amount, approximately $301 million related to CCEAG. This impairment was due to a prolonged difficult economic environment in Germany, resulting in continuing losses for CCEAG in eastern Germany. The market for nonalcoholic beverages is currently undergoing a transformation. A changing competitive landscape, continuing price pressure,

and growing demand for new products and packaging were elements impacting CCEAG. The $400 million impairment also included a $50 million charge for Middle East bottlers' franchise rights. In our Africa operating segment, a $63 million charge was recorded for the Company's proportionate share of impairments related to equity method investee bottlers' franchise rights. These Middle East and Africa bottlers have challenges as a result of political instability and the resulting economic instability, in their respective regions, which has adversely impacted financial performance.

A $96 million impairment was recorded for the Company's proportionate share related to bottlers' franchise rights of Latin America equity method investees. In southern Latin America, the macroeconomic conditions and devaluation of the Argentine peso significantly impacted the valuation of bottlers' franchise rights.

As discussed in Note 18, the Company acquired certain intangible assets in connection with the business combinations of CCEAG, Cosmos Bottling Company (CBC) and CCDA Waters L.L.C. (CCDA). Because such assets were assigned indefinite lives, no amortization will be recorded.

The following table sets forth the information for intangible assets subject to amortization and for intangible assets not subject to amortization (in millions):

NOTE 6: SHORT-TERM BORROWINGS AND
CREDIT ARRANGEMENTS

Loans and Notes Payable consist primarily of commercial paper issued in the United States. On December 31, 2002 and 2001, we had approximately $2,122 million and $3,361 million, respectively, outstanding in commercial paper borrowings. Our weighted-average interest rates for commercial paper outstanding were approximately 1.4 percent and 1.9 percent at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. In addition, we had $2,331 million in lines of credit and other short-term credit facilities available as of December 31, 2002, of which approximately $353 million was outstanding. All of this $353 million amount relates to our international subsidiaries. Included in the available facilities discussed above, the Company had $1,900 million in lines of credit for general corporate purposes, including commercial paper back-up, which had no borrowings during 2002.

These facilities are subject to normal banking terms and conditions. Some of the financial arrangements require compensating balances, none of which is presently significant to our Company.

NOTE 9: FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts reflected in our balance sheets for cash, cash equivalents, marketable equity securities, cost method investments, receivables, loans and notes payable and long-term debt approximate their respective fair values. Fair values are based primarily on quoted prices for those or similar instruments. Fair values for our derivative financial instruments are included in Note 10.

Credit Risk
With respect to our Cash and Cash Equivalents balances, we manage our exposure to counterparty credit risk through specific minimum credit standards, diversification of counterparties and procedures to monitor concentration of credit risk. Based on these factors, we consider the risk of counterparty default to be minimal.

Certain Debt and Marketable Equity Securities
Investments in debt and marketable equity securities, other than investments accounted for by the equity method, are required to be categorized as either trading, available-for-sale or held-to-maturity. On December 31, 2002 and 2001, we had no trading securities. Securities categorized as available-for-sale are stated at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses, net of deferred income taxes, reported as a component of AOCI. Debt securities categorized as held-to-maturity are stated at amortized cost.

NOTE 10: HEDGING TRANSACTIONS AND DERIVATIVE
FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Our Company uses derivative financial instruments primarily to reduce our exposure to adverse fluctuations in interest rates and foreign exchange rates and, to a lesser extent, in commodity prices and other market risks. When entered into, the Company formally designates and documents the financial instrument as a hedge of a specific underlying exposure, as well as the risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking the hedge transactions. The Company formally assesses, both at the inception and at least quarterly thereafter, whether the financial instruments that are used in hedging transactions are effective at offsetting changes in either the fair value or cash flows of the related underlying exposure. Because of the high degree of effectiveness between the hedging instrument and the underlying exposure being hedged, fluctuations in the value of the derivative instruments are generally offset by changes in the fair value or cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. Any ineffective portion of a financial instrument's change in fair value is immediately recognized in earnings. Virtually all of our derivatives are straightforward over-the-counter instruments with liquid markets. Our Company does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

The fair values of derivatives used to hedge or modify our risks fluctuate over time. We do not view these fair value amounts in isolation, but rather in relation to the fair values or cash flows of the underlying hedged transactions or other exposures. The notional amounts of the derivative financial instruments do not necessarily represent amounts exchanged by the parties and, therefore, are not a direct measure of our exposure to the financial risks described above. The amounts exchanged are calculated by reference to the notional amounts and by other terms of the derivatives, such as interest rates, exchange rates or other financial indices.

As discussed in Note 1, the Company adopted SFAS No. 133, as amended by SFAS No. 137 and SFAS No. 138, on January 1, 2001. These statements require the Company to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities in our balance sheets at fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of a hedging relationship and, further, on the type of hedging relationship. At the inception of the hedge relationship, the Company must designate the derivative instrument as either a fair value hedge, a cash flow hedge or a hedge of a net investment in a foreign operation. This designation is based upon the exposure being hedged.

The adoption of SFAS No. 133 resulted in the Company recording transition adjustments to recognize its derivative instruments at fair value and to recognize the ineffective portion of the change in fair value of its derivatives. The cumulative effect of these transition adjustments was an after-tax reduction to Net Income of approximately $10 million and an after-tax net increase to AOCI of approximately $50 million. The reduction to Net Income was primarily related to the change in the time value and fair value of foreign currency options and interest rate swap agreements, respectively. The increase in AOCI was primarily related to net gains on foreign currency cash flow hedges. The Company reclassified into earnings during the year ended December 31, 2001 approximately $54 million of net gains relating to the transition adjustment recorded in AOCI as of January 1, 2001.

We have established strict counterparty credit guidelines and enter into transactions only with financial institutions of investment grade or better. We monitor counterparty exposures daily and review any downgrade in credit rating immediately. If a downgrade in the credit rating of a counterparty were to occur, we have provisions requiring collateral in the form of U.S. government securities for substantially all of our transactions. To mitigate presettlement risk, minimum credit standards become more stringent as the duration of the derivative financial instrument increases. To minimize the concentration of credit risk, we enter into derivative transactions with a portfolio of financial institutions. The Company has master netting agreements with most of the financial institutions that are counterparties to the derivative instruments. These agreements allow for the net settlement of assets and liabilities arising from different transactions with the same counterparty. Based on these factors, we consider the risk of counterparty default to be minimal.

Interest Rate Management
Our Company monitors our percentage mix of fixed-rate and variable-rate debt, as well as our percentage mix of term debt versus nonterm debt. This monitoring includes a review of business and other financial risks. We also enter into interest rate swap agreements to manage these risks. These contracts had maturities ranging from one to three

years on December 31, 2002. Interest rate swap agreements that meet certain conditions required under SFAS No. 133 for fair value hedges are accounted for as such with the offset recorded to adjust the fair value of the underlying exposure being hedged. Any ineffective portion (which was not significant in 2002 or 2001) of the changes in the fair value of these agreements is recorded in earnings immediately. The fair values of our Company's interest rate swap agreements were approximately $44 million and $5 million at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. The Company estimates the fair value of its interest rate management derivatives based on quoted market prices.

Prior to January 1, 2001, our Company also used interest rate swaps and interest rate caps for hedging purposes. For interest rate swaps, any differences paid or received were recognized as adjustments to interest expense over the life of each swap, thereby adjusting the effective interest rate on the underlying obligation. Additionally, prior to January 1, 2001, our Company had entered into an interest rate cap agreement that entitled us to receive from a financial institution the amount, if any, by which our interest payments on our variable rate debt exceeded prespecified interest rates through 2004. This cap agreement was terminated during 2001, and the impact on the statements of income was immaterial.

Foreign Currency Management
The purpose of our foreign currency hedging activities is to reduce the risk that our eventual U.S. dollar net cash inflows resulting from sales outside the United States will be adversely affected by changes in exchange rates.

We enter into forward exchange contracts and collars and purchase currency options (principally euro and Japanese yen) to hedge certain portions of forecasted cash flows denominated in foreign currencies. The effective portion of the changes in fair value for these contracts, which have been designated as cash flow hedges, are reported in AOCI and reclassified into earnings in the same financial statement line item and in the same period or periods during which the hedged transaction affects earnings. Any ineffective portion (which was not significant in 2002 or 2001) of the change in fair value of these instruments is immediately recognized in earnings. These contracts had maturities ranging from one to two years on December 31, 2002, which is also the period in which all amounts included in AOCI will be reclassified into earnings.

Additionally, the Company enters into forward exchange contracts that are not designated as hedging instruments under SFAS No. 133. These instruments are used to offset the earnings impact relating to the variability in exchange rates on certain monetary assets and liabilities denominated in non-functional currencies. Changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized in earnings in the Other Income (Loss)-Net line item of our statements of income immediately to offset the effect of remeasurement of the monetary assets and liabilities.

The Company also enters into forward exchange contracts to hedge its net investment position in certain major currencies. Under SFAS No. 133, changes in the fair value of these instruments are recognized in foreign currency translation adjustment, a component of AOCI, to offset the change in the value of the net investment being hedged. For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, approximately $26 million and $43 million, respectively, of losses relating to derivative financial instruments were recorded in foreign currency translation adjustment.

Prior to January 1, 2001, gains and losses on derivative financial instruments that were designated and effective as hedges of net investments in international operations were included in foreign currency translation adjustment, a component of AOCI.

For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, we recorded an increase (decrease) to AOCI of approximately $(151) million and $92 million, respectively, net of both income taxes and reclassifications to earnings, primarily related to net gains (losses) on foreign currency cash flow hedges, which will generally offset cash flow gains and losses relating to the underlying exposures being hedged in future periods. The Company estimates that it will reclassify into earnings during the next 12 months losses of approximately $8 million from the net amount recorded in AOCI as of December 31, 2002 as the anticipated foreign currency cash flows occur. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company recorded approximately $12 million in earnings, classified within Net Operating Revenues in our statements of income, primarily related to the change in the time value of foreign currency options. During 2001, the FASB issued an interpretation to SFAS No. 133 allowing the entire change in fair value, including the time value, of certain purchased options to be recorded in AOCI until the related underlying exposure is recorded in earnings. The Company adopted this interpretation prospectively.

The Company estimates the fair value of its foreign currency derivatives based on quoted market prices or pricing models using current market rates. This amount is primarily reflected in Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets within our balance sheets.

Prior to January 1, 2001, our Company also used foreign exchange contracts and purchased currency options for hedging purposes. Premiums paid and realized gains and losses, including those on any terminated contracts, were included in Prepaid Expenses and Other Assets. These were recognized in income, along with unrealized gains and losses, in the same period the hedging transactions were realized.

NOTE 11: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

On December 31, 2002, we were contingently liable for guarantees of indebtedness owed by third parties in the amount of $494 million. We do not consider it probable that we will be required to satisfy these guarantees.

We believe our exposure to concentrations of credit risk is limited due to the diverse geographic areas covered by our operations.

We have committed to make future marketing and other expenditures of approximately $2,550 million, of which the majority is payable over the next 12 years.

In June 2002, our Company announced long-term agreements with the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) and CBS, and with the Houston Astros Baseball Club for a combined value of approximately $650 million to $800 million. These commitments are included in the future marketing and other expenditures amount referred to in the preceding paragraph.

The Company is also involved in various legal proceedings. Management believes that any liability to the Company that may arise as a result of currently pending legal proceedings, including those discussed below, will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company taken as a whole.

During the period from 1970 to 1981, our Company owned Aqua-Chem, Inc. (Aqua-Chem). A division of Aqua-Chem manufactured certain boilers that contained gaskets that Aqua-Chem purchased from outside suppliers. Several years after our Company sold this entity, Aqua-Chem received its first lawsuit relating to asbestos, a component of some of the gaskets. Aqua-Chem has notified our Company that it believes we are obligated to them for certain costs and expenses

associated with the litigation. Aqua-Chem has demanded that our Company reimburse it for approximately $10 million for out-of-pocket litigation-related expenses incurred over the last 18 years. Aqua-Chem has also demanded that the Company acknowledge a continuing obligation to Aqua-Chem for any future liabilities and expenses that are excluded from coverage under the applicable insurance or for which there is no insurance. Our Company disputes Aqua-Chem's claims, and we believe we have no obligation to Aqua-Chem for any of its past, present or future liabilities, costs or expenses. Furthermore, we believe we have substantial legal and factual defenses to Aqua-Chem's claims. The parties have entered into litigation to resolve this dispute. The Company believes Aqua-Chem has substantial insurance coverage to pay Aqua-Chem's asbestos claimants. An estimate of possible losses over time, if any, cannot be made at this time.

The Competition Authority of the European Commission made unannounced visits to the offices of the Company and our bottling partners in Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Germany and Great Britain several years ago. Similarly, the Spanish competition authorities made unannounced visits to our own offices and those of certain bottlers in Spain in 2000. The European Commission and the Spanish competition authorities continue their investigations into unspecified market practices in their respective jurisdictions. The Company believes we have substantial legal and factual defenses in these matters.

Additionally, at the time of divesting our interest in a consolidated entity, we sometimes agree to indemnify the buyer for specific liabilities related to the period we owned the entity. Management believes that any liability to the Company that may arise as a result of any such indemnification agreements will not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company taken as a whole.

NOTE 13: RESTRICTED STOCK, STOCK OPTIONS AND
OTHER STOCK PLANS

Prior to 2002, our Company accounted for our stock option plans and restricted stock plans under the recognition and measurement provisions of APB No. 25 and related interpretations. Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted the preferable fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123. Our Company selected the modified prospective method of adoption described in SFAS No. 148. Compensation cost recognized in 2002 is the same as that which would have been recognized had the fair value method of SFAS No. 123 been applied from its original effective date. Refer to Note 1.

In accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 123 and SFAS No. 148, $365 million was recorded for total stock-based compensation expense in 2002. In accordance with APB No. 25, total stock-based compensation expense was $41 million and $43 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000.

Stock Option Plans
Under our 1991 Stock Option Plan (the 1991 Option Plan), a maximum of 120 million shares of our common stock was approved to be issued or transferred to certain officers and employees pursuant to stock options and stock appreciation rights granted under the 1991 Option Plan. The stock appreciation rights permit the holder, upon surrendering all or part of the related stock option, to receive cash, common stock or a combination thereof, in an amount up to 100 percent of the difference between the market price and the option price. Options to purchase common stock under the 1991 Option Plan have been granted to Company employees at fair market value at the date of grant.

The 1999 Stock Option Plan (the 1999 Option Plan) was approved by share owners in April of 1999. Following the approval of the 1999 Option Plan, no grants were made from the 1991 Option Plan, and shares available under the 1991 Option Plan were no longer available to be granted. Under the 1999 Option Plan, a maximum of 120 million shares of our common stock was approved to be issued or transferred to certain officers and employees pursuant to stock options granted under the 1999 Option Plan. Options to purchase common stock under the 1999 Option Plan have been granted to Company employees at fair market value at the date of grant.

The 2002 Stock Option Plan (the 2002 Option Plan) was approved by share owners in April of 2002. Under the 2002 Option Plan, a maximum of 120 million shares of our common stock was approved to be issued or transferred to certain officers and employees pursuant to stock options granted under the 2002 Option Plan. Options to purchase common stock under the 2002 Option Plan have been granted to Company employees at fair market value at the date of grant.

Generally, stock options become exercisable over a four-year graded vesting period and expire 15 years from the date of grant. Prior to 1999, stock options generally became exercisable over a three-year vesting period and expired 10 years from the date of grant.

To ensure the best market-based assumptions were used to determine the estimated fair value of stock options granted in 2002, we obtained two independent market quotes. Our Black-Scholes value was not materially different from the independent quotes.

The following table sets forth information about the fair value of each option grant on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model and the weighted-average assumptions used for such grants:

Restricted Stock Award Plans
Under the amended 1989 Restricted Stock Award Plan and the amended 1983 Restricted Stock Award Plan (the Restricted Stock Award Plans), 40 million and 24 million shares of restricted common stock, respectively, may be granted to certain officers and key employees of our Company.

On December 31, 2002, 29 million shares were available for grant under the Restricted Stock Award Plans. In 2002, there were 30,000 shares of restricted stock granted at an average fair value of $50.99 per share. In 2001, there were 116,300 shares of restricted stock granted at an average fair value of $48.95 per share. In 2000, there were 546,585 shares of restricted stock granted at an average fair value of $58.20 per share. In 2002, 2,500 shares of restricted stock were cancelled at an average fair value of $67.50 per share. In 2001, 78,700 shares of restricted stock were cancelled at an average fair value of $48.49 per share. In 2000, 80,500 shares of restricted stock were cancelled at an average fair value of $28.41 per share. Participants are entitled to vote and receive dividends on the shares and, under the 1983 Restricted Stock Award Plan, participants are reimbursed by our Company for income taxes imposed on the award, but not for taxes generated by the reimbursement payment. The shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions and may be forfeited if a participant leaves our Company for reasons other than retirement, disability or death, absent a change in control of our Company.

In addition, 270,000 shares of three-year performance-based and 2,025,000 shares of five-year performance-based restricted stock were granted in 2000. The release of these shares was contingent upon the Company achieving certain predefined performance targets over the three-year and five-year measurement periods, respectively. Participants were entitled to vote and receive dividends on these shares during the measurement period. The Company also promised to grant 180,000 shares of stock at the end of three years and 200,000 shares at the end of five years to certain employees if the Company achieved predefined performance targets over the respective measurement periods.

In May 2001, all performance-based restricted stock awards and promises made to grant shares in the future were cancelled, with the exception of 150,000 shares of five-year performance-based restricted stock. New awards for the same number of cancelled shares, with the exception of the promises made in 2000 to grant 200,000 shares at the end of five years, were granted at an average fair value of $47.88 per share. The release of the shares is subject to the Company's achievement of a minimum of 11 percent annual growth in earnings per share over the respective measurement periods, as adjusted for certain items approved by the Board of Directors. In 2001, an additional 10,000 shares of three-year performance-based restricted stock and 50,000 shares of five-year performance-based restricted stock were granted at an average fair value of $46.22 per share and $45.70 per share, respectively, with predefined performance targets to be achieved over the respective measurement periods. In 2001, an additional 250,000 shares of five-year performance-based restricted stock were granted at an average fair value of $46.80 per share.

In 2002, an additional 50,000 shares of four-year performance-based restricted stock were granted at an average fair value of $46.88 per share. The release of the shares is subject to the Company's achievement of a minimum of 11 percent annual growth in earnings per share over the four-year measurement period, as adjusted for certain items approved by the Board of Directors. In 2002, the Company also promised to grant 50,000 shares at the end of three years and 75,000 shares

We made income tax payments of approximately $1,508 million, $1,496 million and $1,425 million in 2002, 2001 and 2000, respectively. During the first quarter of 2000, the U.S. and Japan taxing authorities entered into an Advance Pricing Agreement (APA) whereby the level of royalties paid by Coca-Cola (Japan) Company, Ltd. (our Subsidiary) to our Company was established for the years 1993 through 2001. Pursuant to the terms of the APA, our Subsidiary filed amended returns for the applicable periods reflecting the negotiated royalty rate. These amended returns resulted in the payment during the first and second quarters of 2000 of additional Japanese taxes. The effect on our financial performance and our effective tax rate was not material, due primarily to offsetting tax credits utilized on our U.S. income tax return.

A reconciliation of the statutory U.S. federal rate and effective rates is as follows:

Our effective tax rate reflects the tax benefit derived from having significant operations outside the United States that are taxed at rates lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 35 percent.

In 2002 and 2000, management concluded that it was more likely than not that tax benefits would not be realized with respect to principally all of the items discussed in Note 16, with the exception of approximately $188 million of charges in 2000 related to the settlement terms of a class action discrimination lawsuit. Accordingly, valuation allowances were recorded to offset the future tax benefit of these items resulting in an increase in our effective tax rate. Excluding the impact of these items, the effective tax rate on operations for 2002 was 27 percent and for 2000 was slightly more than 30 percent.

Undistributed earnings of the Company's foreign subsidiaries amounted to approximately $6.1 billion at December 31, 2002. Those earnings are considered to be indefinitely reinvested and, accordingly, no U.S. federal and

state income taxes have been provided thereon. Upon distribution of those earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise, the Company would be subject to both U.S. income taxes (subject to an adjustment for foreign tax credits) and withholding taxes payable to the various foreign countries. Determination of the amount of unrecognized deferred U.S. income tax liability is not practicable because of the complexities associated with its hypothetical calculation; however, unrecognized foreign tax credits would be available to reduce a portion of the U.S. liability.

(1) Deferred tax assets of $358 million and $412 million have been included in the caption Other Assets at December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively.


On December 31, 2002 and 2001, we had approximately $34 million and $240 million, respectively, of net deferred tax assets located in countries outside the United States.

On December 31, 2002, we had $1,387 million of tax operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income of certain international subsidiaries. Loss carryforwards of $614 million must be utilized within the next five years; $483 million can be utilized over an indefinite period. A valuation allowance has been provided for a portion of the deferred tax assets related to these loss carryforwards.

NOTE 16: SIGNIFICANT OPERATING AND
NONOPERATING ITEMS

In the third quarter of 2002, our Company recorded a noncash pretax charge of approximately $33 million related to our share of impairment and restructuring charges taken by certain investees in Latin America. This charge was recorded in the caption Equity Income (Loss).

Our Company had direct and indirect ownership interests totaling approximately 18 percent in Cervejarias Kaiser S.A. (Kaiser S.A.). In March 2002, Kaiser S.A. sold its investment in Cervejarias Kaiser Brazil, Ltda to Molson Inc. (Molson) for cash of approximately $485 million and shares of Molson valued at approximately $150 million. Our Company's pretax share of the gain related to this sale was approximately $43 million, of which approximately $21 million was recorded in the caption Equity Income (Loss), and approximately $22 million was recorded in the caption Other Income (Loss)-Net.

In the first quarter of 2002, our Company recorded a noncash pretax charge of approximately $157 million (recorded in the caption Other Income (Loss)-Net), primarily related to the write-down of certain investments in Latin America. This write-down reduced the carrying value of the investments in Latin America to fair value. The charge was primarily the result of the economic developments in Argentina during the first quarter of 2002, including the devaluation of the Argentine peso and the severity of the unfavorable economic outlook.

In the first quarter of 2000, we recorded charges of approximately $405 million related to the impairment of certain bottling, manufacturing and intangible assets, primarily within our Indian bottling operations. These impairment charges were recorded to reduce the carrying value of the identified assets to fair value. Fair value was derived using cash flow analysis. The assumptions used in the cash flow analysis were consistent with those used in

2002 ANNUAL REPORT - 99


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

our internal planning. The assumptions included estimates of future growth in unit cases, estimates of gross margins, estimates of the impact of exchange rates and estimates of tax rates and incentives. The charge was primarily the result of our revised outlook for the Indian beverage market including the future expected tax environment. The remaining carrying value of long-lived assets within our Indian bottling operations, immediately after recording the impairment charge, was approximately $300 million.

In July 2000, we recorded a tax-free noncash gain of approximately $118 million related to the merger of Coca-Cola Beverages and Hellenic Bottling Company S.A. Refer to Note 2.

In the fourth quarter of 2000, we recorded charges of approximately $188 million related to the settlement terms of, and direct costs related to, a class action discrimination lawsuit. The monetary settlement included cash payments to fund back pay, compensatory damages, a promotional achievement fund and attorneys' fees. In addition, the Company introduced a wide range of training, monitoring and mentoring programs. Of the $188 million, $50 million was donated to The Coca-Cola Foundation to continue its broad range of community support programs. In 2001, our Company paid out substantially all of this settlement.

In 2000, the Company also recorded a charge of approximately $306 million, which represents the Company's portion of a charge recorded by Coca-Cola Amatil to reduce the carrying value of its investment in the Philippines. In addition, Panamerican Beverages, Inc. wrote down selected assets, including the impairment of the value of its Venezuelan operating unit. The Company's portion of this charge was approximately $124 million. Also contributing to the equity losses were charges recorded by investees in Eurasia and the Middle East. These charges were partially offset by the impact of lower tax rates related to current and deferred taxes at CCEAG.

NOTE 17: REALIGNMENT COSTS

In January 2000, our Company initiated a major organizational realignment (the Realignment) intended to put more responsibility, accountability and resources in the hands of local business units of the Company so as to fully leverage the local capabilities of our system.

Under the Realignment, employees were separated from almost all functional areas of the Company's operations, and certain activities were outsourced to third parties. The total number of employees separated as of December 31, 2000 was approximately 5,200. Employees separated from the Company as a result of the Realignment were offered severance or early retirement packages, as appropriate, that included both financial and nonfinancial components. The Realignment expenses included costs associated with involuntary terminations, voluntary retirements and other direct costs associated with implementing the Realignment. Other direct costs included repatriating and relocating employees to local markets; asset write-downs; lease cancellation costs; and costs associated with the development, communication and administration of the Realignment. We recorded total Realignment charges in 2000 of $850 million, which was included in the caption Other Operating Charges.

The Realignment has been completed, and all material payments associated with the Realignment have been made except for retirement pay and benefits for employees who voluntarily accepted early retirement packages, which will be paid out in accordance with the Company's defined benefit pension plans over a number of years.

NOTE 18: ACQUISITIONS AND INVESTMENTS

During 2002, our Company's acquisition and investment activity totaled approximately $1,144 million. Of this $1,144 million, our Company paid $544 million in cash.

Effective February 2002, our Company acquired control of CCEAG. CCEAG is included in our Europe, Eurasia and Middle East operating segment. As a result of acquiring control of CCEAG, our Company expects to help focus its sales and marketing programs and assist in developing the business. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination, and the results of CCEAG's operations have been included in the Company's financial statements since February 2002. Prior to February 2002, our Company accounted for CCEAG under the equity method of accounting. As of December 31, 2002, our Company had an approximate 41 percent ownership interest in the outstanding shares of CCEAG. In accordance with the terms of a Control and Profit and Loss Transfer Agreement (CPL) with CCEAG, our Company obtained control of CCEAG for a period of up to five years. In return for control of CCEAG, the Company guaranteed annual payments, in lieu of dividends by CCEAG, to all other CCEAG share owners. These guaranteed annual payments equal .76 euro for each CCEAG share outstanding. Additionally, all other CCEAG share owners entered into either a put or put/call option agreement with the Company, exercisable at the end of the term of the CPL at agreed prices. Our Company entered into either put or put/call agreements for shares representing an approximate 59 percent interest in CCEAG. The spread in the strike prices of the put and call options is approximately 3 percent.

As of the date of the transaction, the Company concluded that the exercise of the put and/or call agreements was a virtual certainty based on the minimal differences in the strike prices. We concluded that either the holder of the put option would require the Company to purchase the shares at the agreed-upon put strike price, or the Company would exercise its call option and require the share owner to tender its shares at the agreed-upon call strike price. The holders of the puts or calls may exercise their rights at any time up to

2002 ANNUAL REPORT - 101


NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

the expiration date, which in this case is in five years. If these rights are exercised, the actual transfer of shares would not occur until the end of the term of the CPL. Coupled with the guaranteed payments in lieu of dividends for the term of the CPL, these instruments represented the financing vehicle for the transaction. As such, the Company determined that the economic substance of the transaction resulted in the acquisition of the remaining outstanding shares of CCEAG and required the Company to account for the transaction as a business combination. Furthermore, the terms of the CPL transfer control and all of the economic risks and rewards of CCEAG to the Company immediately.

The present value of the total amount likely to be paid by our Company to all other CCEAG share owners, including the put or put/call payments and the guaranteed annual payments in lieu of dividends, is approximately $741 million at December 31, 2002. This amount has increased from the initial liability of approximately $600 million due to the accretion of the discounted value to the ultimate maturity of the liability described below, as well as approximately $95 million of translation adjustment related to this liability. This liability is included in the caption Other Liabilities. The accretion of the discounted value to its ultimate maturity value was recorded in the caption Other Income
(Loss)-Net, and this amount was approximately $38 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. As of December 31, 2002, the Company's balance sheet included property, plant and equipment with a fair value of approximately $961 million, bottler franchise rights with a fair value of approximately $576 million and goodwill with a fair value of approximately $419 million. These amounts are composed of approximately 41 percent of our historic book value of CCEAG's property, plant and equipment, franchise rights and goodwill, and approximately 59 percent of the fair value of CCEAG's property, plant and equipment, franchise rights and goodwill computed at the acquisition date. The bottler franchise rights, which authorize the bottler to manufacture and distribute designated Company trademark beverages within identified territories, were assigned an indefinite life. The goodwill, which is not currently expected to be deductible for tax purposes, is reported in the Europe, Eurasia and Middle East operating segment. As of December 31, 2002, CCEAG had outstanding debt of $843 million. The purchase price allocation is subject to refinement.

In July 2002, our Company and Danone Waters of North America, Inc. (DWNA) formed the new company, CCDA, for the production, marketing and distribution of DWNA's bottled spring and source water business in the United States. In forming CCDA, DWNA contributed assets of its retail bottled spring and source water business in the United States. These assets include five production facilities, a license for the use of the Dannon and Sparkletts brands, as well as ownership of several value brands. Our Company made a cash payment to acquire a controlling 51 percent equity interest in CCDA and is also providing marketing, distribution and management expertise. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination, and the results of CCDA's operations have been included in our financial statements since July 2002. This business combination expanded our water brands to include a national offering in all sectors of the water category with purified, spring and source waters.

In January 2002, our Company and CCBPI finalized the purchase of RFM Corp.'s (RFM) approximate 83 percent interest in CBC, a publicly traded Philippine beverage company. The original sale and purchase agreement with RFM was entered into in November 2001. As of the date of this sale and purchase agreement, the Company began supplying concentrate for this operation. In March 2002, a tender offer was completed with our Company and CCBPI acquiring all shares of the remaining minority share owners except for shares representing a 1 percent interest in CBC. As of December 31, 2002, our Company's direct ownership interest in CBC was approximately 61 percent, and our indirect ownership interest in CBC was approximately 13 percent. This transaction was accounted for as a business combination, and the results of CBC's operations have been included in our financial statements since January 2002. CBC is an established carbonated soft-drink business in the Philippines. Our Company's goal is to leverage our partnership with San Miguel in the Philippines, as well as leverage our sales, marketing and system resources, to expand CBC volume and profit over time. The Company and CCBPI have agreed to restructure the operations of CBC, and this restructuring will result in the Company owning all acquired trademarks and CCBPI owning all acquired bottling assets.

Our Company acquired controlling interests in CCDA and CBC for total combined consideration of approximately

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

$328 million. CCDA is included in our North America operating segment, and CBC is included in our Asia operating segment. The Company has currently allocated approximately $91 million of the purchase price for these acquisitions to goodwill and $186 million to other indefinite lived intangible assets, primarily trademarks, brands and licenses. Of the $91 million for this goodwill, $63 million is allocated to our North America operating segment and $28 million is allocated to our Asia segment. As of December 31, 2002, the Company recorded minority ownership accruals of approximately $228 million related to these acquisitions in the caption Other Liabilities. The purchase price allocation for CBC was completed in 2002. The purchase price allocation for the CCDA acquisition is subject to refinement based on completion of asset valuations.

The combined 2002 Net Operating Revenues of CCEAG, CBC and CCDA were approximately $1.3 billion.

During 2001, our Company's acquisition and investment activity totaled approximately $651 million. In February 2001, our Company reached an agreement with Carlsberg for the dissolution of CCNB, a joint venture bottler in which our Company had a 49 percent ownership interest. At that time, CCNB had bottling operations in Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Finland and Iceland. Under this agreement with Carlsberg, our Company acquired CCNB's Sweden and Norway bottling operations in June 2001, increasing our Company's ownership in those bottlers to 100 percent. Carlsberg acquired CCNB's Denmark and Finland bottling operations, increasing Carlsberg's ownership in those bottlers to 100 percent. Pursuant to the agreement, CCNB sold its Iceland bottling operations to a third-party group of investors in May 2001.

In March 2001, our Company signed a definitive agreement with La Tondena Distillers, Inc. (La Tondena) and San Miguel to acquire carbonated soft-drink, water and juice brands for $84 million. CCBPI acquired the related manufacturing and distribution assets from La Tondena for $63 million.

In July 2001, our Company and San Miguel acquired CCBPI from Coca-Cola Amatil. Upon the completion of this transaction, our Company owned 35 percent of the common shares and 100 percent of the Preferred B shares, and San Miguel owned 65 percent of the common shares of CCBPI. Additionally, as a result of this transaction, our Company's interest in Coca-Cola Amatil was reduced from approximately 38 percent to approximately 35 percent.

In December 2001, our Company completed a cash tender offer for all outstanding shares of the common stock of Odwalla, Inc. This acquisition was valued at approximately $190 million with our Company receiving an ownership interest of 100 percent.

During the first half of 2001, in separate transactions, our Company purchased two bottlers in Brazil: Refrescos Guararapes Ltda. and Sucovalle Sucos e Concentrados do Vale S.A. In separate transactions during the first half of 2000, our Company purchased two other bottlers in Brazil: Companhia Mineira de Refrescos, S.A. and Refrigerantes Minas Gerais Ltda. In October 2000, the Company purchased a 58 percent interest in Paraguay Refrescos S.A. (Paresa), a bottler in Paraguay. In December 2000, the Company made a tender offer for the remaining 42 percent of the shares in Paresa. In January 2001, following the completion of the tender offer, we owned approximately 95 percent of Paresa.

The acquisitions and investments have been accounted for by either the purchase or equity method of accounting, as appropriate. Their results have been included in our financial statements from their respective dates of acquisition using the appropriate method of accounting. Had the results of these businesses been included in operations commencing with 2000, the reported results would not have been materially affected.

NOTE 19: SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

During the first quarter of 2003, the Company initiated steps to streamline and simplify its operations, primarily in North America and Germany.

In North America, the Company is integrating the operations of our three separate North American business units- Coca-Cola North America (including our interest in CCDA), The Minute Maid Company (including our Odwalla business) and Fountain. The integration is expected to result in a headcount reduction of approximately 1,000 people, with the identification of the individuals expected to be completed by the end of the first quarter of 2003.

In Germany, CCEAG has taken steps to improve efficiency in sales and distribution, including the closure of three

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The Coca-Cola Company and Subsidiaries

bottling plants in 2003. The streamlining initiative is expected to affect approximately 900 employees in Germany.

NOTE 20: OPERATING SEGMENTS

Our Company's operating structure includes the following operating segments:
North America (including The Minute Maid Company); Africa; Europe, Eurasia and Middle East; Latin America; Asia; and Corporate. North America includes the United States, Canada and Puerto Rico. During the first quarter of 2002, the Egypt Region was reclassified from Europe, Eurasia and Middle East to Africa. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Effective January 1, 2001, our Company's operating segments were geographically reconfigured and renamed. Puerto Rico was added to North America from Latin America. The Middle East Division was added to Europe and Eurasia, which changed its name to Europe, Eurasia and Middle East. At the same time, Africa and Middle East, less the reclassified Middle East Division, changed its name to Africa. During the first quarter of 2001, Asia Pacific was renamed Asia. Prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

Segment Products and Services
The business of our Company is nonalcoholic beverages. Our operating segments derive substantially all of their revenues from the manufacture and sale of beverage concentrates and syrups, and in some cases, the sale of finished beverages. The Net Operating Revenues from operations excluding bottling were $17,157 million, $16,402 million and $16,448 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000. Our consolidated bottling operations accounted for Net Operating Revenues of $2,407 million, $1,143 million and $906 million, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000.

Method of Determining Segment Profit or Loss
Management evaluates the performance of its operating segments separately to individually monitor the different factors affecting financial performance. Segment profit or loss includes substantially all the segment's costs of production, distribution and administration. Our Company typically manages and evaluates equity investments and related income on a segment level. However, we manage certain significant investments, such as our equity interests in Coca-Cola Enterprises, at the Corporate segment. Our Company manages income taxes on a global basis. We manage financial costs, such as exchange gains and losses and interest income and expense, on a global basis at the Corporate segment. Thus, we evaluate segment performance based on profit or loss before income taxes and cumulative effect of accounting change.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND SHARE OWNERS
THE COCA-COLA COMPANY

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of The Coca-Cola Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related consolidated statements of income, share-owners' equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of The Coca-Cola Company and subsidiaries at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the consolidated results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2002, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

As discussed in Notes 1, 4 and 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, in 2002 the Company changed its method of accounting for goodwill and other intangible assets and changed its method of accounting for stock-based compensation. As discussed in Notes 1 and 10 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, in 2001 the Company changed its method of accounting for derivative instruments and hedging activities.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." For the Company's intangible assets, the cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle was a decrease to net income after taxes in the first quarter of 2002 of approximately $367 million ($.15 per share after income taxes, basic and diluted). For the Company's proportionate share of its equity method investees, the cumulative effect of this change in accounting principle was a decrease to net income after taxes in the first quarter of 2002 of approximately $559 million ($.22 per share after income taxes, basic and diluted). Refer to Note 4.

Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted the preferable fair value recognition provisions of SFAS No. 123, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation." Our Company selected the modified prospective method of adoption as described in SFAS No. 148, "Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation--Transition and Disclosure." Since SFAS No. 148 was issued in December 2002, results for the quarters previously reported in our 2002 Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q were restated to the amounts noted above for the modified prospective method of adoption. The pretax impact of adopting the provisions under the modified prospective method for the three months ended March 31, 2002, June 30, 2002, September 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002 was $95 million, $92 million, $95 million and $91 million, respectively. The 2002 full year impact of adopting the provisions under the modified prospective method was $.11 per share after income taxes, basic and diluted. Results for prior years have not been restated. Refer to Note 1.

Effective January 1, 2002, our Company adopted the provisions of Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) Issue No. 01-9, "Accounting for Consideration Given by a Vendor to a Customer or a Reseller of the Vendor's Products." Refer to Note 1. The adoption of the remaining items included in EITF Issue No. 01-9 resulted in the Company reducing Net Operating Revenues by $520 million, $641 million, $701 million and $685 million, respectively, for the three months ended March 31, 2001, June 30, 2001, September 30, 2001 and December 31, 2001. This reclassification had no impact on Operating Income.

The first quarter of 2002 includes a noncash pretax charge of approximately $157 million ($.06 per share after income taxes, basic and diluted) primarily related to the write-down of our investments in Latin America.

In the first quarter of 2002, Cervejarias Kaiser S.A. sold its investment in Cervejarias Kaiser Brazil, Ltda to Molson Inc. (Molson) for cash of approximately $485 million and shares of Molson valued at approximately $150 million. Our Company's pretax share of the gain related to this sale was approximately $43 million ($.01 per share after income taxes, basic and diluted).

The third quarter of 2002 includes a noncash pretax charge of approximately $33 million ($.01 per share after income taxes, basic and diluted) related to our proportionate share of impairment and restructuring charges taken by certain investees in Latin America.

The third quarter of 2001 includes a noncash gain on the issuance of stock by one of our equity investees, Coca-Cola Enterprises, of approximately $91 million ($.02 per share after income taxes, basic and diluted).

EXHIBIT 99.1

CAUTIONARY STATEMENT RELATIVE TO FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain written and oral statements made by our Company and subsidiaries or with the approval of an authorized executive officer of our Company may constitute "forward-looking statements" as defined under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including statements made in this report and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Generally, the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "project," "will" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. All statements which address operating performance, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future -- including statements relating to volume growth, share of sales and earnings per share growth and statements expressing general optimism about future operating results -- are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our Company's historical experience and our present expectations or projections. As and when made, management believes that these forward-looking statements are reasonable. However, caution should be taken not to place undue reliance on any such forward-looking statements since such statements speak only as of the date when made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The following are some of the factors that could cause our Company's actual results to differ materially from the expected results described in or underlying our Company's forward-looking statements:

* Economic and political conditions, especially in international markets, including civil unrest, product boycotts, governmental changes and restrictions on the ability to transfer capital across borders. Without limiting the preceding sentence, the current unstable economic and political conditions and civil unrest in the Middle East, Brazil and Venezuela, potential or actual conflicts in Iraq, North Korea or elsewhere, or the continuation or escalation of terrorism, could have adverse impacts on our Company's business results or financial condition.

* Changes in the nonalcoholic beverages business environment. These include, without limitation, changes in consumer preferences, competitive product and pricing pressures and our ability to gain or maintain share of sales in the global market as a result of actions by competitors. Factors such as these could impact our earnings, share of sales and volume growth.

* Foreign currency rate fluctuations, interest rate fluctuations and other capital market conditions. Most of our exposures to capital markets, including foreign currency and interest rates, are managed on a consolidated basis, which allows us to net certain exposures and, thus, take advantage of any natural offsets. We use derivative financial instruments to reduce our net exposure to financial risks. There can be no assurance, however, that our financial risk management program will be successful in reducing capital market exposures.

* Adverse weather conditions, which could reduce demand for Company products.

* The effectiveness of our advertising, marketing and promotional programs.

* Fluctuations in the cost and availability of raw materials and the ability to maintain favorable supplier arrangements and relationships.

* Our ability to achieve earnings forecasts, which are generated based on projected volumes and sales of many product types, some of which are more profitable than others. There can be no assurance that we will achieve the projected level or mix of product sales.

* Changes in laws and regulations, including changes in accounting standards, taxation requirements (including tax rate changes, new tax laws and revised tax law interpretations), competition laws and environmental laws in domestic or foreign jurisdictions.

* Our ability to penetrate developing and emerging markets, which also depends on economic and political conditions, and how well we are able to acquire or form strategic business alliances with local bottlers and make necessary infrastructure enhancements to production facilities, distribution networks, sales equipment and technology. Moreover, the supply of products in developing markets must match the customers' demand for those products, and due to product price and cultural differences, there can be no assurance of product acceptance in any particular market.

* The uncertainties of litigation, as well as other risks and uncertainties detailed from time to time in our Company's Securities and Exchange Commission filings.

The foregoing list of important factors is not exclusive.
