Sustainable Growth. In the past three decades, Coca-Cola China has embraced the opportunity to grow with and contribute to China’s rapid economic development through our direct investments, technological innovations, talent development, and knowledge transfer of global best practices. Our unbending commitment to China allowed us to play a pivotal role in the growth of not only the Chinese beverage industry, but other industries such as marketing and logistics as well. We challenge ourselves to accelerate our positive economic impact through continued direct investments and employment opportunities. Sustainable Lifestyles. The vibrancy and passion of the Chinese people is truly inspirational. Within our business operations, we believe we can harness this people potential by creating not just jobs, but also rewarding careers. For our consumers, we are constantly looking for product innovations and we challenge ourselves to develop more innovative new beverage choices to meet their changing lifestyles faster than ever before. Furthermore, as urbanization, increased affluence, and fast-paced living continue to alter lifestyles, we have an increasing responsibility to champion physical activity as a part of active healthy living.

Sustainable Communities. Our business model allows us to employ, source, produce and sell our beverages locally. We are very much a part of the fabric of every local community where we operate in China – and we realize the sustainability of our business depends on the sustainability of the local communities where we operate. Together with our bottling partners, we delivered much needed water to people caught in the 2008 snow-storms and are helping rebuild schools destroyed by the tragic Sichuan earthquake. Together with people from all across China, as a global sponsor we celebrated the Beijing Olympic Games and are getting ready to welcome the 2010 Shanghai World Expo. These are just a few highlights from some of our recent efforts.Sustainable Environment. By definition "sustainability" means preserving natural resources for future generations. As we continue to grow our business in China, we will do so in ways that not only minimize our environmental impact but also create innovative solutions and partnerships that positively impact climate protection and water resources. Through cutting-edge innovative technologies in our operations, investing in long-term environmental projects in local communities, and promoting public awareness, we hope to catalyst environmental protection actions from local communities and businesses across different industries.Sustainable Reporting. Transparency and accountability go hand-in-hand and these are the dual objectives of this Review. Our brands are amongst the most recognized and beloved brands in China and they are synonymous with quality, unique good taste, and refreshment. Our reputation is based on trust with our stakeholders who care about our business, a trust that we continuously renew with each and every one of our beverages and our actions. This Review is our third report on sustainability efforts in China. The two first reports helped us further engage our stakeholders and we hope this will be the case for this Review as well. LIVE POSITIVELY™. The Coca-Cola Company is a global leader in the beverage industry and Coca-Cola China is a leader in the Chinese beverage industry. We have taken a serious and profound look at the impacts we make economically, environmentally and socially and challenged ourselves to live up to the tremendous honor bestowed upon us and the responsibility that comes with it. LIVE POSITIVELY™ is a holistic way for us to think about sustainability and our business impacts. It is a modern expression of our heritage of caring about our people and our planet. LIVE POSITIVELY™ includes goals, metrics and principles for our work in developing beverage benefits; supporting active healthy living programs; building sustainable communities; improving environmental programs for our operations; and creating a safe, inclusive work environment for our associates. It is about all of us making the right decisions each day, in every aspect of our work and our lives. This Review is organized based on our LIVE POSITIVELY™ commitments and our progress towards achieving our goals.For me, it is simultaneously a privilege, a humbling experience and a tremendous responsibility being a part of the Coca-Cola China team, which in turn is a part of the engine that fuels China’s sustained economic growth. This is a part of our journey together and I welcome your inputs and feedback on how we can continue improving the way we operate going forward. Sincerely,

Doug JacksonPresident, Coca-Cola Greater China & Korea

Dear Stakeholders,

In the past two years, together with China, we have reached many milestones. In 2008, together we celebrated the Beijing Olympic Games. That same year, China became The Coca-Cola Company’s third largest market globally. In 2009, we celebrated 30 years of China’s reform and opening-up policy and the 30th anniversary of The Coca-Cola Company’s re-entry into the Chinese market. These parallel milestones did not happen by chance – they come from our long-term unwavering commitment to growing together with China.

The new decade is fast approaching and China remains steadfast to the commitment of building a harmonious society. Economic, environmental and social impacts of businesses operating here are more important than ever. As China’s living standards continue to improve, we will keep step with these dynamic changes and live up to our responsibilities as a leader in China’s beverage industry.

A LETTER FROM OUR PRESIDENT

COCA-COLA CHINA

Our History

Our Business Model

Established in 1886, The Coca-Cola Company operates in more than 200 countries and markets over 500 brands and more than 3,000 beverage products. These products include sparkling and still beverages, such as waters, juices and juice drinks, teas, coffees, sports drinks and energy drinks. We have four of the world’s top five nonalcoholic sparkling beverage brands: Coca-Cola, Diet Coke, Sprite and Fanta.

Our history in China dates back to 1927 when we first officially entered the Chinese market with the opening of two bottling plants, one in Shanghai and another in Tianjin – these two plants were among The Coca-Cola Company’s first international plants. And in 1979, just one day after China and the United States established formal diplomatic relations, The Coca-Cola Company announced its return to the Chinese market. In the past 30 years, together with our partners, we have invested over USD 2 billion to build 38 bottling plants and two concentrate plants here in China. And we plan to invest an additional USD 2 billion within three years. This new wave of direct investments started with a USD 90 million investment for our Coca-Cola China Headquarters Complex in Shanghai which also features our Global Innovation and Technology Center. Together with our bottling partners, we employ almost 40,000 local associates and create an additional 400,000 job opportunities throughout our value chain in China.

Coca-Cola China: Because we serve a vast geographic area covering just about everywhere in China, we operate through a number of local operational units. Coca-Cola China’s operational units include Coca-Cola Beverages (Shanghai) Ltd., Coca-Cola China Ltd., and Coca-Cola Far East Ltd. Consistent with our global business model, in addition to owning and managing our brands, and being responsible for consumer brand marketing initiatives, we directly manage and operate our two concentrate plants that manufacture and sell concentrates, beverage bases and syrups to our bottling partners.

The Coca-Cola Company is a global business that operates on a local scale in every community where we do business. Our business model allows us to create global reach with local focus because of the strength of the Coca-Cola system, which comprises our Company and our bottling partners – more than 300 worldwide. Our Company manufactures and sells concentrates, beverage bases and syrups to bottling operations; owns and manages the brands; and is responsible for consumer brand marketing initiatives. Our bottling partners manufacture, package, merchandise and distribute the finished branded beverages to our customers who are grocery stores, restaurants, street vendors, convenience stories, movie theaters and many other businesses, who then sell our products to consumers at the rate of 1.6 billion servings each day globally.

Around the world, this is the framework that we operate under. From time to time, as we develop our business, we make certain adaptations as necessary to meet local business and regulatory requirements, to enhance efficiencies and better serve our customers and consumers.

BUSINESS PROFILE

Our Bottling PartnersIn China, we work primarily with three bottling group partners that each operates a number of bottling companies in their respective franchise territories. Our bottling group partners manufacture, sell, distribute, and market our branded beverages.

We also have a special partnership with Coca-Cola Bottlers Manufacturing Holdings Limited (CCBMH). CCBMH, jointly owned by The Coca-Cola Company and our China bottling group partners, coordinates the production of most of our branded still beverages.

2 Starting in 2006, The Coca-Cola Company incrementally acquired 100% equity interest in Coca-Cola China Industries Ltd. (CCCIL) through Atlantic Industries, a wholly owned subsidiary. Because CCCIL operates independently from Coca-Cola China, for the purposes of this Review, it is categorized similarly with our other bottling partners.

PRODUCT SAFETY AND QUALITYThe safety and quality of our beverages is of the utmost importance to us. Food safety and quality is also very important to the Chinese consumers and government. We are guided by the highest global standards and processes that often exceed the requirements of local regulations at each stage of our beverage manufacturing process. As an industry leader with a proven track record, we will continue to ensure the safety and quality of our products.

The Coca-Cola Management System (TCCMS) sets the standards and governs the Quality, Environmental and

Occupational Safety and Health System in China, as it applies similarly to all of The Coca-Cola Company’s operations worldwide. TCCMS also incorporates the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point and Good Manufacturing Process systems and mandates standard operating procedures for the entire product lifespan. The Coca-Cola China system rigorously and continuously implements, documents, and conducts internal and independent third-party assessment audits to ensure compliance with all TCCMS requirements.

BEVERAGE BENEFITS

Ensuring Safety and Quality Every Step of the Way: 5

5 This list highlights only some of the important steps we take as a part of our quality assurance process.

Ingredients & Packaging • The ingredients that go into our beverages and the packaging that contains them are sourced only

from pre-approved suppliers that pass strict pre-approval audits. • We routinely collect water, sugar, high fructose corn syrup and in-plant treated sugar syrup from

each production plant for laboratory tests to ensure they meet regulatory requirements.

Warehousing & Distribution• We implement Good Warehouse Practices to protect our products during warehousing.• First Expire First Out guidelines are applied to ensure product age control.

Traceability• We have a system in place to ensure product traceability through the lifespan of each beverage. • Every beverage product comes with a code which can trace the product back to its bottling plant,

date of production, and ingredient suppliers.

Concentrate & Beverage Production• Every production facility is routinely audited by independent third-party auditors in accordance

with TCCMS requirements.• Each production facility conducts incoming quality control to ensure ingredients and packaging

materials are meeting regulatory and quality control requirements before acceptance.

In-Market Quality Monitoring • We randomly collect products from retail outlets across China for laboratory testing in our world-

class analytical lab in Shanghai to evaluate quality performance.• More than 1,000 randomly collected samples are analyzed monthly.

We aspire to help people lead active, healthy lives by producing a wide variety of beverages; providing nutrition information and consumer health education; and supporting physical activity programs.

"People are aspiring to live healthier lifestyles. Different foods should not be categorized as good or bad - the key to healthier lifestyles is through good dietary behavior. With changing lifestyles, now there are more overweight people in China. The solution to weight management is simple - the amount of calories consumed must be balanced with the amount of calories burned. The best way to to achieve healthier lifestyles is to balance food and beverage intake with regular physical activity."

— Professor CHEN Chunming, Dean of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention


Encouraging Active Healthy Living

We care about the health and well-being of our consumers and want to make a positive difference in people’s lives. We believe that a balanced, sensible diet combining foods and beverages with regular physical activity is the foundation of active healthy living. Coca-Cola China hopes to inspire active healthy lifestyles through the beverages we produce and how we market them, the nutritional information we provide about our beverages, and our support of programs that encourage active healthy living.

China’s rapid economic development in recent years has brought about a number of lifestyle changes. Urbanization has led to fast-paced lifestyles that are more affluent but can at times be more stressful and less active. Health issues related to weight management have arisen, particularly in urban centers and amongst youth. While the causes of these health issues such as diabetes and obesity are complex, through our engagement with health-care experts, doctors and related Chinese government agencies we have come to believe that Coca-Cola China and our beverages can play a meaningful role in helping our consumers live active healthy lifestyles.

OUR ACTIVE HEALTHY LIVING FRAMEWORK

THINKInform, empower and motivate people to make healthy diet and activity choices

DRINKProvide and tailor beverages for every lifestyle, life stage and occasion

MOVERaise the standards of physical activity around the world


Happy Playtime

In March 2006, the China National Committee for the Wellbeing of the Youth and 12 ministries such as the Ministry of Education, the Ministry of Health and the General Administration of Sport launched the "Chinese Campus Health Campaign" to help Chinese children grow up happy and healthy.

We supported this Campaign by launching "Happy Playtime," a project that provides toolkits on good nutrition and dietary habits for teachers to use as teaching material in classrooms. Through Happy Playtime, hundreds of exercises and physical activity games that are fun and scientifically based to maximize physical benefits have been developed for children to enjoy during school. By 2009, more than 1.5 million students from 2,000 schools in 20 cities across China have participated in Happy Playtime activities.

Public Health Education - China Health Communications Award (Healthy Weight Management - 2009)On April 27, 2009, together with the Ministry of Health and the China Journalist Association, Coca-Cola China launched the China Health Communications Award (Healthy Weight Management - 2009) project. The theme of this project is focused on how people can maintain healthy weight through a balanced diet and regular exercise.

The project will provide a range of communication tools for media members and provincial bureaus of health to encourage the media to conduct more accurate reporting of health issues and to help the government craft more effective messages on health and wellbeing to the public. Among the communication tools is a comprehensive booklet titled "Communication Points on Weight Management, Media Kit and Dictionary on Weight Management" that was compiled by health experts at the Ministry of Health. There is also a website where informative interviews of medical professionals and Ministry of Health offi cials can be found.

The project also includes conferences where well-known health experts share their knowledge on weight management with media members. The conferences have been held in Hangzhou, Shanghai, Beijing, Guangzhou and other cities across China and were chaired by representatives from the local bureaus of health.

Consumer Health Education - Nutritional LabelingWe have a responsibility to inform our consumers with fact-based ingredient and nutrition information for our products so they can make beverage choices that are in line with a sensible, balanced diet and active lifestyle. Providing ingredient and nutrition information on our beverages helps consumers to make informed choices about the beverages they enjoy.

In addition to listing the ingredients for each beverage on the packaging, our labels also indicate energy, protein, fat, carbohydrate and other nutritional content and adhere to China's nutrition labeling regulations and related policies of The Coca-Cola Company.


CONSUMER EDUCATION

17 COCA-COLA CHINA

Responsible MarketingWe respect and support our consumers and communities with advertising and marketing that is tasteful, truthful and responsible.

Our portfolio of beverage brands provides appropriate beverages for people of different ages on different occasions from simple daily routines to festive social celebrations. And we are honored to be a part of the daily lives of our consumers and their families.

We fully appreciate the right and responsibility of parents and caregivers to make the appropriate beverage choices for children and this philosophy is the cornerstone of our Responsible Marketing Practices – Advertising and Marketing to Children Policy. We know that children are increasingly exposed to marketing messages across more media channels and the need for greater control and guidance has been heightened – we have stepped up to meet this challenge and we are calling for industry-wide participation.

Advertising and Marketing to Children PolicyWe are committed to creating accurate, age-appropriate advertising. We led the global beverage industry in adopting a global Advertising and Marketing to Children Policy, communicating our marketing guidelines and our respect for the role of parents in choosing beverage options for their children.

We do not directly target children under the age of 12 in our marketing messages in our advertising, and we do not show children drinking any of our products outside of the presence of a parent or caregiver.

We are committed to monitoring this policy to ensure it is responsive to the needs and requests of parents and caregivers, and reflective of the ever-changing marketplace. We have advocated for the entire non-alcoholic beverage industry worldwide to follow this approach and are delighted that guidelines consistent with our policy have been adopted by the International Council of Beverage Associations.



19 COCA-COLA CHINA

We are a global company with local roots in every community where we do business. We are committed to fostering sustainable communities through wide-ranging programs geared to develop economies, improve lives and create opportunity.

"In 2009, the China Youth Development Foundation was very pleased to present Coca-Cola China with an Outstanding Contribution Award as we celebrated the 20th anniversary of Project Hope. Through their long-term commitment to improving rural education, Coca-Cola China has made a signifi cant contribution to China. Over the years, Coca-Cola China has built 61 Project Hope Schools throughout China and initiated many educational youth development programs in the schools. And recently, their support of schools reconstruction in areas impacted by the Sichuan earthquake is most appreciated and is another example of their commitment to improving education for children in China’s rural areas."

As one of the very first international companies to return to China after the reform and opening-up policy became a reality, we have now been a part of the business, cultural and social landscape of modern China for 30 years. As China has grown over these three decades, so has our commitment to China and our business in China. The Coca-Cola China system has made direct investments of USD 2 billion in China and will invest an additional USD 2 billion within three years. The Coca-Cola China Headquarters Complex in Shanghai that features our headquarters and Global Innovation and Technology Center representing a USD 90 million investment marks the beginning of this second wave of direct investments.

During the height of the recent global financial downturn, the Coca-Cola China system maintained and increased its unbending commitment to China by opening three new plants in Jiangxi, Wuhan and Xinjiang in 2009, all in support of the Chinese government’s policy to further develop China’s central and western regions. For these plants, we invested RMB 800 million and directly created 10,000 jobs for local communities in 2009. With the addition of these new plants, the Coca-Cola China system now operates 38 bottling plants and 2 concentrate plants, employing more than 40,000 associates directly and indirectly creating more than 400,000 jobs. And we have already begun construction of what will become our newest plant in Inner Mongolia.

AIDS-Impacted Orphan Care ProgramYunnan is one of the provinces most affected by the HIV/AIDS epidemic and, as a result, has a rising number of orphans. In 2006, in order to alleviate the growing pressure of this new demographic, we partnered with the Chinese Foundation for Prevention of STDs and AIDS, the Yunnan Women and Children Development Center and the Yunnan Ruili Women’s Association to launch the first AIDS-Impacted Orphan Care Program in Ruili county.

The primary function of this Program is to provide support and care to AIDS-impacted orphans in the 75 villages throughout Ruili. The Program pays for the orphans’ physical check-ups and medical expenses, subsidizes living and education expenses, provides for regular counseling sessions, and delivers soy milk powder to supplement their daily nutritional needs.

In 2008 and 2009, Coca-Cola China joined efforts with the Gary Player Foundation to organize annual fundraisers which have raised RMB 13.5 million collectively to reach 2,000 orphans in Yunnan, Sichuan, Xinjiang and Gansu.

Project HopeThe Coca-Cola China system has a long-standing commitment to improving educational opportunities for underprivileged children in rural China. In partnership with the China Youth Development Foundation, we have supported Project Hope for nearly 20 years. Our contributions to Project Hope have resulted in the construction of 61 Project Hope schools, 100 Hope libraries, 56 e-learning centers and 55 multi-media centers in over 20 provinces. We have also provided training to 1,200 teachers and numerous Hope Star Scholarships to assist promising Project Hope graduates extend their education beyond primary school to middle school, high school, university and graduate school. To date, our support of Project Hope has reached 60,000 students across China.

Contributing to sustainable communities is embedded in the way we operate. In addition to the community programs we support described in other sections of this Review, we would also like to highlight our Project Hope partnership and AIDS-Impacted Orphan Care Program.

We are committed to responsible water stewardship. Our goal is to safely return to nature and communities an amount of water equivalent to what we use in all of our beverages and their production.

Coca-Cola China Water Stewardship Commitment:• By 2012, reduce our water use ratio6 to 1.95.

"Water quality and availability are serious issues in China. The Yangtze River is the world's 3rd largest river and it sustains the livelihoods of one-third of the population of China. WWF appreciates Coca-Cola China's long-term commitment to be a leader in water stewardship in its own operations and to protect the Upper Yangtze River Basin area. Our joint vision is to see a healthy Yangtze River for people and nature. WWF was very pleased to award Coca-Cola China our Conservation Partner of the Year in 2008."

— Dermot O’GORMAN, Country Representative of WWF China

6 Water use ratio represents the liters of water required to produce a liter of beverage product.

Water sustains life – it is vital to our associates, consumers and every community where we operate. Water is fundamental to our business – it is the primary ingredient in all our products and is indispensable in our production process. In China, there are critical challenges related to water ranging from water pollution, water quality, to water access in rural areas. We take our responsibility to be a steward of water resources very seriously and we are collaborating with our partners, governmental agencies and civil society to make a lasting positive impact in this area.

In 2007, The Coca-Cola Company became one of the fi rst six companies to commit to the CEO Water Mandate, a program designed to help companies better manage water use in their direct operations and throughout their supply chains. The guidelines of this mandate help frame the content of our water stewardship reporting.

By 2020, our Company's global goal is to safely return to nature and communities an amount of water equivalent to what we use in all of our beverages. Our water stewardship efforts focus on three main areas:

1. 2.

3.

reduce our water use ratio;recycle water used in our operations (through water reuse projects and effective wastewater treatment); andreplenish the water we use through improving community water access and watershed restoration and protection.

The majority of water we use in China come from municipal water sources and we pay the local governments for all the water we use in our operations. Some of the water we use goes to hydrating the millions of people who consume our beverages in China but water is also used in our production process for rinsing, heating, cooling and washing. To comprehensively refl ect our water effi ciency, we include the water content of our beverages and the water used in the production process in our calculation of water use ratio.

WATER STEWARDSHIP

While we work to improve our water efficiency for each liter of product we produce, we also recycle the water we use in our operations. Water pollution is a serious issue in China caused primarily by agricultural practices, industrial discharge and household sanitation. For our part, we are minimizing the amount of water we discharge across the Coca-Cola China system, ensuring that wastewater discharged from all our facilities meet regulatory wastewater requirements, and provide leadership to China’s beverage industry on best-in-class wastewater treatment management. Currently, all the wastewater discharged from our manufacturing processes in China is at a level that supports aquatic life.

Water used in our system operations is recycled through a stringent treatment and cleansing process. This ensures that the quality of the wastewater meets or exceeds applicable laws and regulations before being released back into the environment. All Coca-Cola China system facilities meet the wastewater effluent standards of The Coca-Cola Company and those of the local governments where they operate. Treated wastewater also is sometimes used within our plants for utility purposes in boilers, evaporators and chillers and outside for landscape irrigation and dust control, reducing our use of external water resources.

Preserving the Yangtze River Basin for Future Generations with WWF China

In 2007, The Coca-Cola Company and World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) initiated a transformational multi-year partnership to conserve seven of the world’s most important freshwater river basins with a total commitment of USD 23.75 million. The Yangtze River Basin, running across China and sustaining more than 400 million people and countless fish and wildlife species, is an integral part of this global commitment. The Coca-Cola China system is working with WWF China in four focus areas and numerous related local initiatives to improve the health of the Yangtze River Basin. Below are some highlights from our partnership thus far. We look forward to reporting further progress in future reports.

Water is a resource under great pressure in China and globally. Looking ahead, we foresee that economic development, climate change and population growth will increase pressure on freshwater resources in China. Because we are a leader in China’s beverage industry, we welcome the responsibility to replenish water resources in the communities where our associates and consumers live, where our facilities operate, and in the rural areas where much of our ingredients are locally grown and sourced. We aspire to replenish an amount of water to these local communities that is equivalent to what is used in our beverages. We do this in partnerships with Chinese government agencies, local communities and NGOs.

WATER BEYOND OUR OPERATIONS


WATER STEWARDSHIP

Supporting China’s Efforts to Improve Rural Water Access and Safety

The Chinese government has made significant efforts to expand the supply of safe drinking water in rural areas over the past decades. The central government has promised in its 11th Five Year Plan (2006–2010) to make safe drinking water available to 160 million rural residents by 2010. The government has also set an ambitious target of providing all of China’s rural residents with clean drinking water by 2013. In our effort to support this important government directive, in 2007 we joined the government of China represented by the Ministry of Water Resources, China International Center for Economic and Technical Exchanges of the Ministry of Commerce, together with the United Nations Development Programme, in an unprecedented partnership – "Improved Water Resources Management and Drinking Water Safety in Rural Regions of China."

This project is co-funded by the partners with a total input of USD 6,792,000 for a 4-year period (2007-2011). It aims at supporting government efforts to improve water resources management and drinking water safety in rural regions of China with priorities given to the western and northern region and communities of ethnic minorities who are ecologically fragile, economically disadvantaged and geographically remote.

To date, through research, capacity building and field demonstrations:1. 320,000 residents in project areas participated and

benefited;2. 30,000 tons of sewage treated by the Shuangcheng

city wastewater treatment plant;3. 25,000 local residents gained access to water

through field demonstration projects; and4. 22,713 students and teachers benefited from

improved sanitation facilities and access to safe drinking water in 20 schools located throughout Sichuan and Xinjiang.

Saving Water Across China, One Barrel At A Time

The Save a Barrel of Water program was launched in 2005 to educate young people across China on the importance

of water conservation. Since then, this project has grown to become a country-wide movement across China, encouraging students and their families to practice water conservation in their daily lives through practical

tips. By 2009, this project reached one million students in 22 cities.

"Our team visited wetlands to find out what

plants are most effective for cleaning water in nature. Even

though we gave up our weekends and holidays to go back and forth between

labs and wetlands under the scorching sun, we gained so much knowledge from our field

observations and hands-on experiments that we all wanted to keep going! We were all hugging each other when we heard our recommendations will be implemented and will remember this experience for the rest of our lives!"

"Climate change is the most serious global challenge of the 21st century. Through continuous investment in technological innovation and effective management to reduce their carbon emissions, Coca-Cola China has achieved remarkable success in climate protection through their actions and is a best-practice model for other businesses."

— ZHAI Qi, Secretary General of China Business Council for Sustainable Development

We aim to be the beverage industry leader in energy conservation and climate protection. We are committed to growing our business but not the carbon emissions from our manufacturing operations.

Coca-Cola China Energy Management and Climate Protection Commitments:• By 2015, reduce our energy use ratio10 to 0.40.• By 2010, continue to reduce our carbon footprint by placing 5,000 environmentally friendly

coolers in the marketplace, in addition to the more than 13,300 environmentally friendly coolers we have already placed since 2008.

10 Energyr use ratio represents the megajoules of energy required to produce a liter of beverage product.

Improving our energy effi ciency and climate protection is a key focus area for the entire Coca-Cola China system. We use energy to operate our production facilities, power our offi ces, refrigerate and distribute our products. Because the use of energy from non-renewable sources creates carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions, which is the main greenhouse gas responsible for climate change, we aim to improve our energy effi ciency and minimize our carbon footprint. Not only does this make environmental sense, it’s also good business sense because in the long term it reduces costs.

We have an energy management system in place to monitor our use and identify areas where there is room for improvement. We measure our effi ciency performance by the megajoules of energy used to produce a liter of product, which is our energy use ratio (EUR). As we produce more beverages to meet China’s growing ready-to-drink hydration needs, our total energy use may increase, but we are continuously improving our EUR, making our beverages more energy effi cient year-on-year. Compared to our EUR in 2004, our 2009 EUR represents a 35% improvement in effi ciency.

Supporting Earth Hour in China

Refrigerants Naturally! is a global not-for-profit initiative launched by The Coca-Cola Company and other companies in 2004 to combat climate change and ozone layer depletion by substituting harmful fluorinated gases ("F-gases," such as CFCs, HCFCs and HFCs) with natural refrigerants. For The Coca-Cola Company, this applies to our cold-drink equipment which are the refrigeration units and vending machines that allow our beverages to reach consumers cool and refreshing.


Climate Innovations


The Promise:• By using HFC-free insulation material, we can

eliminate harmful blowing agents by 100%.• By using HFC-free refrigerants, we can reduce

refrigeration equipment’s direct greenhouse gas emissions by 99%.

• By 2010, all our new refrigeration equipment purchases will be 40% - 50% more energy efficient.

• By 2015, all our new refrigeration equipment purchases will be HFC-free.

Keeping Our Promise:• 2006 Coca-Cola China system commits to using 100%

HFC-free insulation in all new refrigeration units.• 2008 Coca-Cola China system places 5,700

refrigeration units that use HFC-free refrigerants.• 2009 Coca-Cola China system places energy saving

EMS-55 and cassette technology in all new units with capacity grreater than 250 liters.

• 2009 Coca-Cola China system places additional 7,700 refrigeration units that use HFC-free refrigerants.

EMS-55 is an intelligent system that monitors usage patterns and then adjusts energy usage to maximize efficiency. For example, a cooler placed in a store may be opened frequently during the day, but would likely be left unopened when the store is closed overnight. EMS-55 self adjusts to allow more energy usage during peak times while going into rest mode when less energy is needed. We believe that this technology has the potential to make refrigeration units up to 35% more energy efficient. Coupled with new cassette technology that will be incorporated into refrigeration units, the total reduction of energy use can reach up to 50%.

We are continuously learning from best practices in energy management and climate protection and implementing them throughout the Coca-Cola China system. In our manufacturing operations and office facilities, our improvements range from fixing leaks, insulating pipes and putting in efficient lighting to installing renewable energy sources. But we feel we can do more. As a leader in the beverage industry worldwide, The Coca-Cola Company is making significant investments to champion climate protection innovations with our partners. Up to now, our Company has invested USD 50 million in research and development to advance the use of climate-friendly cooling technologies.

We envision a world in which our packaging is seen as a valuable resource for future use. We are making this vision a reality by creating value at every stage of our packaging lifecycle, through efforts to reduce, recover and reuse.

Coca-Cola China Sustainable Packaging Commitment:• By 2015, improve packaging material effi ciency per liter of product sold by 7% from our

2008 baseline.

"Our mission is to improve resource use effi ciency in China by giving new life to post-consumer plastic bottles. We collect, process and purify 50,000 tons of plastic bottles each year and there are many different uses for the plastic chips. Coca-Cola China shares our vision and is a key industry driver of plastic bottle recycling and reuse efforts in China. We look forward to working with partners like Coca-Cola China to develop more effi cient ways to collect and process plastic bottles for future use."

— Ricky YAO, Director and CEO of Incom Resources Recovery Co. Ltd.

Packaging adds value to our products by increasing shelf life, minimizing breakage, safeguarding public health, providing product information, and creating consumer convenience. But in an era of rising energy costs and scarce resources, we must work toward packaging that adds value not only to our products, but also to our environment and society. We hope to do this through our sustainable packaging vision:


Our Sustainable Packaging Vision


We strive to be the most environmentally efficient user of high-quality, consumer-preferred packaging in the beverage industry. We continually explore new ways to reduce the amount of material and energy used in our packaging without sacrificing quality. All of our major packages have seen significant material reductions since their initial introductions.

By 2015, our goal is to use 7% less packaging material in each bottle or can compared to our 2008 baseline.

The recovery of glass bottles, plastic bottles and aluminum cans for reuse is critical to our sustainability aspirations. In China, these packaging materials have economic value and so there is an informal system in place that recovers a significant amount of these packaging materials. However, we will continue to look for opportunities to support and enhance the packaging recovery process.

We are working to encourage demand for recovered materials and assisting local recyclers to make use of recovered materials. In 2008, for the Olympic Games in Beijing, we promoted the use of recycled PET bottles by providing thousands of T-shirts, visors and uniforms made from PET to athletes, officials, associates and our hospitality guests. And we are helping to develop local reuse capability with INCOM, a company based in Beijing that processes used plastic bottles into recycled PET chips for future use.

1881 – Shorter, Lighter and Better Than Ever!

1881 refers to a new innovative model of PET bottle necks. By reducing the height, weight and design of the bottle necks, we can reduce the amount of PET used in each bottle between 1.25 grams to 1.35 grams, and a typical closure weight reduction of 0.5 grams.

Here in China, the rollout of our new short-height 1881 bottle cap for most of our sparkling and still beverages is expected to eliminate the equivalent plastic use of 439 million caps and 208 million 500-ml bottles.

Ice Dew – More Than a Light Weight!In July of 2009, we made a commitment to light weight our Ice Dew bottles nationally. We are reducing the amount of PET used for each 550-ml bottle by 6.2 grams, making it the lightest bottle of its kind in the Chinese market.

Using a baseline fi gure of 1 billion bottles of Ice Dew per year, 6,200 tons of PET, which is the equivalent of 16,400 tons of carbon emissions, will be saved. The total carbon emissions saved from Ice Dew light weight bottles equal 101 acres of forest planted or 2,788 cars taken off the road.

Additionally, carbon emissions will be reduced in transportation, and the light weight bottle is easy to twist and crush for recycling.

Ice Dew is well on its way to a new green living journey!

The Coca-Cola University was officially opened in 2006 to provide the Coca-Cola China system with optimal training solutions in terms of quality, focus, effectiveness and value. In addition to providing training to Coca-Cola China system associates, we have now expanded our services to provide training for our key customers as well.

Our mission is to become a capability building organization providing one-stop training service.

At the Coca-Cola University, we aim to:• create a learning environment that excites and motivates people;• develop well-rounded beverage professionals capable of effective leadership; and• provide our customers with true value through our training programs.

Some achievement highlights:

• training hours more than doubled from 2,200 hours in 2006 to 5,100 hours in 2009;• number of key external customers more than tripled from 10 in 2007 to more than 30 in 2009;• expanded areas of service from classroom training to include e-learning; and• hosted more than 80 EMBA groups from business schools all over the world to share insights on

doing business in China.

Coca-Cola University is not only a place "where learning never stops" but also a place where learning starts!

In 2008, a few Chinese students published a report online alleging labor misconduct at bottling and supplier facilities. We took this report very seriously and immediately began a comprehensive investigation and conducted independent third-party audits of the named facilities. While our audits have not found the bottlers’ use of contract labor in violation of the Chinese Labor Laws, we are still very interested in an open dialogue with the students in order better to understand their concerns and discuss potential options for further improvements in our labor relations.

Coca-Cola China and our bottling partners run our businesses in full compliance with local labor laws, government guidelines and policies. We have robust programs in place to monitor and audit the workplace practices of our bottlers and suppliers to ensure full compliance with China’s labor laws. All our bottlers and suppliers are required to be in full compliance with The Coca-Cola Company’s Supplier Guiding Principles (SGP) and they are routinely audited for compliance.

SGP is the foundation of our commitment to promote the respect of labor rights among our business partners. SGP compliance is a requirement for all direct suppliers of goods and services to the Coca-Cola China system and is included in all relevant contracts.


From Supply Chain To Sustainability Chain

WORKPLACE

The Coca-Cola China system is supported by hundreds of independent suppliers who supply us with goods and services. Like most companies operating in China, we face challenges in our supply chain. However, we are committed to exerting a positive influence on our suppliers by encouraging best practices in their operations through regular communications, trainings, coaching and monitoring.

Supplier Guiding Principles


SGP Assessments

The Coca-Cola Company’s policy requires that suppliers be assessed for SGP compliance every three years by an authorized external auditing agency. Where non-compliance is found, we provide a specific timeframe for corrective action, require the supplier to provide a corrective action plan, and either require the supplier to certify completion of the corrective action in writing or will re-audit the supplier within six months to three years, depending on the nature of the non-compliance.

The goals of our supply chain management process are to protect workers’ rights, improve environmental performance and ensure responsible procurement. We believe we can make the most positive impact on our supply chain by engaging non-compliant suppliers and providing them training, support and ongoing monitoring. Through this process of working with non-compliant suppliers and giving them the opportunity for improvement, their employees and surrounding environments will benefit more than if we took our business elsewhere. Of course, in cases where suppliers refused to work with us in this process, we would de-authorize the supplier and terminate the relationship. Our suppliers have given us positive feedback on this process and indicated that their employees have benefited from better labor relations, safer workplaces and improved standards.

In 2008, 672 assessments were conducted on 426 suppliers. 211 of the suppliers we assessed in 2008 were in compliance. 109 suppliers with violations, such as blocked emergency exists or overtime pay violations, developed corrective action plans and re-assessment timelines were agreed to and executed. 106 suppliers with more systematic issues were not authorized.

In 2009, 451 assessments were conducted on 442 suppliers. 301 of the suppliers we assessed in 2009 were in compliance. 122 suppliers with violations developed corrective actions plans and re-assessment timelines have been agreed to and have been, or are in the process of being, executed. 19 suppliers with more systematic issues were not authorized.


WORKPLACE

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND ETHICS

Board of Directors. At The Coca-Cola Company, we are guided by our established standards of corporate governance and ethics. We continually review our systems to ensure transparency and accountability. The Board of Directors ("Board") of The Coca-Cola Company is elected by the shareowners to oversee their interest in the long-term health and overall success of the Company and its financial strength. The Board serves as the ultimate decision-making body of the Company, except for those matters reserved to or shared with the shareowners. The Board carries out certain responsibilities through the work performed by its seven standing committees: the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Committee on Directors and Corporate Governance, Executive Committee, Finance Committee, Management Development Committee and Public Issues and Diversity Review Committee. The Board selects and oversees members of senior management, who are charged by the Board with conducting the business of the Company. The Board currently has 14 members, 13 of whom are not employees of The Coca-Cola Company.

The Corporate Governance Guidelines, along with the Board Committee Charters and the key practices of the Board, provide the foundation for corporate governance at The Coca-Cola Company. The Corporate Governance Guidelines address such areas as the Board mission and responsibilities; Director qualifications; determination of Director independence; Chief Executive Officer compensation and performance evaluation; and management succession planning.

Codes of Business Conduct. The Code of Business Conduct ("Code") of The Coca-Cola Company, which is available in 19 languages, including Chinese, on both our internal and external websites, guides our business conduct, requiring accountability, honesty and integrity in all matters. All associates of The Coca-Cola Company and its majority-owned subsidiaries are required to read and understand the Code and follow its precepts in the workplace and larger community. The Code is administered by the Ethics and Compliance Committee (various members of the Company’s senior leadership), with oversight by The Coca-Cola Company’s Chief Financial Officer, General Counsel and the Audit Committee of the Board, which is composed solely of independent Directors. Non-employee Directors of The Coca-Cola Company and its subsidiaries are bound by a Code of Business Conduct for Non-Employee Directors that reflects the same principles and values as the Code but focuses on matters of most relevance to non-employee Directors. This non- employee Director Code is administered by the Committee on Directors and Corporate Governance of the Board, which is composed solely of independent Directors.

Anti-Corruption. The Coca-Cola Company’s long-standing commitment to doing business with integrity means avoiding corruption in any form, including bribery, and complying with the anti-corruption laws of every country in which we operate. The Coca-Cola Company’s Anti-Bribery Policy provides guidance on how to conduct business in a fair, ethical and legal manner.

We conduct periodic anti-bribery audits of our business to raise overall awareness, detect potential misconduct and monitor compliance with anti-corruption laws and Company policy. We have assessed all our business units for risks related to corruption and concentrate our auditing on the highest-risk locations.

From January 2008 through June 2009, we conducted anti-bribery audits in The Coca-Cola Company business units operating in nearly 100 countries, including China.

In 2008, we hosted an anti-bribery summit for The Coca-Cola Company and Coca-Cola system associates. The summit allowed associates to connect and share best practices, leveraging expert insights and experiences.

Generally, the words "believe," "expect," "intend," "estimate," "anticipate," "project," "will," and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historical in nature. Forward-looking statements are subject to certain risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from The Coca-Cola Company’s historical experience and our present expectations or projections. These risks include, but are not limited to, water scarcity and quality, changes in the nonalcoholic beverages business environment, the ability to maintain good relationships with our bottling partners, changes in laws and regulations applicable to our business, and litigation and legal proceedings. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements.

Environmental StatementsA healthy environment, locally and globally, is vital to our business and to the communities where we operate. We view protection of the environment as a journey, not a destination. The Coca-Cola Company began that journey more than 100 years ago and it continues today. Each employee of The Coca-Cola Company has responsibility for stewardship of our natural resources and must strive to conduct business in ways that protect and preserve the environment. Our employees, business partners, suppliers and consumers must all work together to continuously find innovative ways to foster the efficient use of natural resources, the prevention of waste and sound management of water. Doing so not only benefits the environment, it makes good business sense.

Equal Opportunity PolicyThe Coca-Cola Company values all employees and the contributions they make. Consistent with this value, the Company reaffirms its long-standing commitment to equal opportunity and affirmative action in employment, which are integral parts of our corporate environment. The Company strives to create an inclusive work environment free of discrimination and physical or verbal harassment with respect to race, gender, color, national origin, religion, age, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, or veteran status. We will make reasonable accommodations in the employment of qualified individuals with disabilities, for religious beliefs and whenever else appropriate.

The Company maintains equal employment opportunity functions to ensure adherence to all laws and regulations, and to Company policy in the areas of equal employment opportunity and affirmative action. All managers are expected to implement and enforce the Company policy of nondiscrimination, equal employment opportunity and affirmative action, as well as prevent acts of harassment within their assigned area of responsibility. Further, it is a part of every individual’s responsibility to maintain a work environment that reflects the spirit of equal opportunity and prohibits harassment.
