(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, this Agreement shall not constitute an agreement to assign or transfer any CCBCC Transferred Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder or resulting therefrom if an attempted assignment or transfer thereof, without the consent of a third party thereto, would constitute a breach or other contravention thereof or a violation of Law or would in any way adversely affect the rights of the CCBU Parties thereunder. Subject to Section 5.05(b), the CCBU Parties and the CCBCC Parties will each use their reasonable best efforts to obtain the consent of the other parties to any such CCBCC Transferred Asset or any claim or right or any benefit arising thereunder for the

assignment thereof to the CCBU Parties as the CCBU Parties may reasonably request.

The CCBCC Parties hereby agree that the CCBU Parties and their Representatives shall be permitted to attend any such physical inventory count conducted by the CCBCC Parties at such time and at such places as the CCBCC Parties specify. No later than one hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing Date, the CCBCC Parties will prepare, or cause to be prepared, and will deliver to the CCBU Parties the CCBCC Closing Financial Information and the CCBCC Preliminary Amounts Schedule. The CCBCC Preliminary Amounts Schedule will be based on, and consistent with, the CCBCC Closing Financial Information.

(c) Arbitration. If the CCBCC Parties and the CCBU Parties are unable to resolve any dispute regarding the CCBU Preliminary Amounts Schedule and/or the CCBCC Preliminary Amounts Schedule within thirty (30) days after the CCBCC Parties’ receipt of the CCBU Notice of Dispute and/or the CCBU Parties’ receipt of the CCBCC Notice of Dispute, as the case may be, or such longer period as the CCBCC Parties and the CCBU Parties shall mutually agree in writing, then the CCBCC Parties and the CCBU Parties may (but shall not be required to) mutually agree that all or any portion of such dispute shall be resolved by a mutually agreed upon accounting firm that, unless otherwise mutually agreed by the parties, is independent of each CCBCC Party and each CCBU Party (meaning a firm of certified public accountants that has not provided services to any of the parties hereto or their Affiliates during the immediately preceding five (5) years) (such accounting firm, the “Arbitrator”). Such resolution shall be final and binding on the parties hereto and the CCBU Final Amounts Schedule and/or the CCBCC Final Amounts Schedule shall be prepared in accordance with the resolution of the Arbitrator. The CCBCC Parties and the CCBU Parties shall submit to the Arbitrator for review and resolution all matters (but only such matters) that are set forth in the CCBU Notice of Dispute and/or the CCBCC Notice of Dispute, as the case may be, which remain in dispute and which the CCBCC Parties and the CCBU Parties mutually agree to submit to the Arbitrator, and the Arbitrator shall resolve only such mutually agreed submitted items and shall, except in the case of manifest error, (A) not assign a value to any item in dispute greater than the greatest value for such item assigned by the CCBCC Parties, on the one hand, or the CCBU Parties, on the other hand, or less than the smallest value for such item assigned by the CCBCC Parties, on the one hand, or the CCBU Parties, on the other hand, and (B) make its determination based on written submissions by the CCBCC Parties and the CCBU Parties which are in accordance with the guidelines and procedures set forth in this Agreement (i.e., not on the basis of an independent review). The Arbitrator shall use commercially reasonable efforts to complete its work within forty-five (45) days following its engagement. The fees, costs and expenses of the Arbitrator (i) shall be borne by the CCBCC Parties in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of all such disputed items so submitted that are resolved against the CCBCC Parties (as finally determined by the Arbitrator) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of all such items so submitted and (ii) shall be borne by the CCBU Parties in the proportion that the aggregate dollar amount of all such disputed items so submitted that are resolved against the CCBU Parties (as finally determined by the Arbitrator) bears to the aggregate dollar amount of all such items so submitted.

(d) Adjustment Payments. If and to the extent that the final determination by the Arbitrator results in any adjustment in the CCBU Base Brand Amount or the CCBCC Base Brand Amount, then within five (5) Business Days following the final determination by the Arbitrator in accordance with this Section 2.09, the CCBU Parties or the CCBCC Parties, as applicable, shall make a true-up payment to the other reflecting such recalculation of the Additional Consideration (determined in the manner set forth in Section 2.06), by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the parties entitled to receive such payment. Any payment made pursuant to this Section 2.09(d) shall include an additional amount of interest on the amount so remitted at a rate per annum equal to the Six-Month Treasury Rate, which additional amount of interest shall accrue from and after the first calendar day after the Closing Date until the date of payment.

(e) Mutually Agreed Adjustments. If and to the extent that, following the date hereof, the parties hereto mutually reasonably agree that EBITDA for the CCBU Business’ 2016 fiscal year or EBITDA for the CCBCC Business’ 2016 fiscal year should be adjusted based on further diligence, (i) the parties hereto will reflect any such adjustment in the CCBU Base Brand Amount or the CCBCC Base Brand Amount, as the case may be, (ii) the Additional Consideration shall be recalculated accordingly, and (iii) (A) with respect to any such adjustments occurring prior to the Closing, such recalculation shall be reflected in Additional Consideration for all purposes hereunder, including Section 2.06, and (B) with respect to any such adjustments occurring after the Closing, the CCBU Parties or the CCBCC Parties, as applicable, shall make a true-up payment to the other reflecting such recalculation of the Additional Consideration (determined in the manner set forth in Section 2.06) by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or accounts designated by the parties entitled to receive such payment.

Section 2.10 Allocation of Certain Items. With respect to certain expenses incurred with respect to (i) the CCBU Transferred Assets in the operation of the CCBU Business and (ii) the CCBCC Transferred Assets in the operation of the CCBCC Business, the following allocations shall be made between the CCBCC Parties on the one hand and the CCBU Parties on the other:

(a) Taxes. Except as otherwise provided by Section 6.01, real and ad valorem property Taxes shall be apportioned at the Closing based upon the amounts set forth in the current Tax bills therefor and the number of days in the taxable period prior to the Closing Date and in the taxable period including and following the Closing Date and if necessary such Taxes shall be further apportioned after the parties hereto receive the final Tax bills relating thereto.

(b) Utilities. Utilities, water and sewer charges shall be apportioned based upon the number of days occurring prior to the Closing Date and including and following the Closing Date during the billing period for each such charge.

(c) Other. Other similar obligations paid in the ordinary course of business, including rent and lease obligations, as well as obligations owed to the CCBU Business Employees or CCBCC Business Employees, in respect of reimbursable automobile expenses, shall be apportioned based upon the number of days occurring prior to the Closing Date and including and following the Closing Date during the billing period for each such charge.

Appropriate cash payments by the CCBCC Parties or the CCBU Parties, as the case may require, shall be made hereunder from time to time as soon as practicable after the facts giving rise to the obligation for such payments are known in the amounts necessary to give effect to the allocations provided for in this Section 2.10; provided, however, that such payments shall not be required to the extent an accrued expense or prepaid expense is adequately reflected with respect to such item on the Final Amounts Schedules.

Section 2.11 Tax Treatment and Allocation.

(a) Tax Treatment. The CCBCC Parties and the CCBU Parties intend that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, to the extent permissible, qualify as like-kind “exchanges” under Section 1031 of the Code, and will cooperate to effectuate the requirements of Section 1031 of the Code, including by executing and delivering such documents as are reasonably required in connection therewith. The CCBCC Parties and the CCBU Parties shall file all Tax Returns and other documents consistent with this Section 2.11 to the extent permissible and except as may be adjusted by subsequent agreement following an audit by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or by court decision. The parties hereto further agree that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement constitute an exchange of multiple properties within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.1031(j)-1 and agree to jointly cooperate with each other to allocate among applicable exchange groups, a residual group, or no group, as applicable, pursuant to Treasury Regulations Section 1.1031(j)-1(b), (i) the CCBU Transferred Assets, (ii) the CCBCC Transferred Assets, and (iii) the difference between the CCBU Assumed Liabilities and the CCBCC Assumed Liabilities (such allocation, the “Exchange Group Allocation”).

(b) Cooperation. The CCBCC Parties and the CCBU Parties shall cooperate and use reasonable best efforts to determine the Exchange Group Allocation within forty-five (45) Business Days following the later of the determination of the Final Amounts Schedules, in accordance with Section 2.09, and the final resolution of the Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice and the Missing CCBU Equipment Notice, in accordance with Section 2.12 (the “Allocation Determination Date”).

Section 2.12 Vending and Cold Drink Equipment.

(a) CCBU Vending and Cold Drink Equipment.

(i) Set forth on Section 2.02(a)(iii) of the CCBU Disclosure Schedule is a list of the CCBU Subject Equipment that the CCBU Parties have assigned a Net Book Value greater than $20 and that has been serviced within the previous twenty-four (24) months and/or has produced revenue within the previous twelve (12) months and the location thereof (as updated pursuant to this Section 2.12(a), the “Key CCBU Subject Equipment”) as well as a depreciation schedule and the acquisition cost for the Key CCBU Subject Equipment. Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing, the CCBU Parties will, by written notice to the CCBCC Parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, amend or supplement Section 2.02(a)(iii) of the CCBU Disclosure Schedule (as amended or supplemented, the “Closing Key CCBU Subject Equipment Schedule”) to update the list of Key CCBU Subject Equipment existing as of the Closing Date and the corresponding acquisition cost and accumulated depreciation (such update for the accumulated depreciation shall be made to the accumulated depreciation data set forth in the update of Section 2.02(a)(iii) of the CCBU Disclosure Schedule delivered pursuant to Section 5.08(a)) for such Key CCBU Subject Equipment, as well as the method for computing the agreed replacement value for each item of Key CCBU Subject Equipment (the “CCBU Agreed Replacement Value”) following the Closing and a “weighted average” value for each category of Key CCBU Subject Equipment (the “CCBU Weighted Average Value”) as of the Closing Date.

(ii) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, although the physical location or existence of certain pieces of the Key CCBU Subject Equipment as reflected on the Closing Key CCBU Subject Equipment Schedule may not be determinable, the failure of the CCBCC Parties to locate or determine the existence of all such Key CCBU Subject Equipment will not provide the basis of or result in a reduction of or adjustment to the Additional Consideration (except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.12(a)) or otherwise provide the basis of or result in a claim for indemnification under Article IX. Within ten (10) Business Days following the six (6) month anniversary of the delivery by the CCBU Parties to the CCBCC Parties of the Closing Key CCBU Subject Equipment Schedule, the CCBCC Parties shall deliver written notice to the CCBU Parties (the “Missing CCBU Equipment Notice”) with the following information: (I) a list of each item of Key CCBU Subject Equipment which the CCBCC Parties have failed to locate or the existence of which the CCBCC Parties have failed to determine (the “Missing CCBU Equipment”), (II) the CCBU Weighted Average Value of each item of Missing CCBU Equipment, (III) a list of each other item of CCBU Subject Equipment present at the location specified for an item of Missing CCBU Equipment on the Closing Key CCBU Subject Equipment Schedule, which list shall specify the location (outlet name and address along with outlet number), make, model and asset identification number for each such other item of CCBU Subject Equipment, the date such item was observed and the name of the individual who made such observation, and (IV) a list of any CCBU Substitute Subject Equipment that the CCBCC Parties have located during such period following the Closing; provided, that the CCBCC Parties may only provide the CCBU Parties with one (1) Missing CCBU Equipment Notice, which Missing

CCBU Equipment Notice may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.12(a)(iii). The Missing CCBU Equipment Notice will also include a calculation (the “CCBU Threshold Calculation”) of whether the total CCBU Weighted Average Value of all Missing CCBU Equipment included in the Missing CCBU Equipment Notice exceeds five percent (5%) (the “CCBU Subject Equipment Threshold”) of the total CCBU Weighted Average Value of (x) all Key CCBU Subject Equipment listed on the Closing Key CCBU Subject Equipment Schedule plus (y) any CCBU Substitute Subject Equipment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the provision of a Missing CCBU Equipment Notice pursuant to this Section 2.12(a) and the rights of the CCBCC Parties with respect thereto set forth in this Section 2.12(a) are the sole and exclusive remedy available to the CCBCC Parties with respect to Missing CCBU Equipment. In addition, between the date that the Closing Key CCBU Subject Equipment Schedule is delivered by the CCBU Parties to the CCBCC Parties and the date that the corresponding Missing CCBU Equipment Notice is delivered by the CCBCC Parties to the CCBU Parties, the CCBCC Parties shall provide to the CCBU Parties monthly written updates regarding the status of any Missing CCBU Equipment by not later than twenty (20) Business Days after the end of each month. If and to the extent that the relocation within the CCBU Territory of any CCBU Substitute Subject Equipment is necessary (as determined by the CCBCC Parties in their sole discretion), the CCBU Parties will bear any out of pocket costs related to such relocation. Such CCBU Substitute Subject Equipment will be free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens.

(iii) The CCBU Parties shall have ninety (90) days following receipt of the Missing CCBU Equipment Notice during which to notify the CCBCC Parties of any dispute of any Missing CCBU Equipment contained on the Missing CCBU Equipment Notice (a “CCBU Equipment Dispute Notice”). If the CCBU Parties do not provide the CCBCC Parties with a CCBU Equipment Dispute Notice within such ninety (90) day period, the Missing CCBU Equipment Notice prepared by the CCBCC Parties shall be deemed to be final and will be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto. If the CCBU Parties do provide the CCBCC Parties with a CCBU Equipment Dispute Notice within such ninety (90) day period, then the CCBCC Parties and the CCBU Parties shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any such dispute as promptly as possible. If the total CCBU Weighted Average Value of all of the Missing CCBU Equipment set forth on the Missing CCBU Equipment Notice and described in the CCBU Threshold Calculation exceeds the CCBU Subject Equipment Threshold (or if the resolution of the CCBU Equipment Dispute Notice is that it exceeds the CCBU Subject Equipment Threshold), the CCBU Parties shall pay the CCBCC Parties the dollar value (based on the CCBU Agreed Replacement Value as of the Closing Date) of all of the Missing CCBU Equipment (and not just the Missing CCBU Equipment in excess of the CCBU Subject Equipment Threshold) set forth on the Missing CCBU Equipment Notice. If the total CCBU Weighted Average Value of all of the Missing CCBU Equipment set forth on the Missing CCBU Equipment Notice and described in the CCBU Threshold Calculation does not exceed the CCBU Subject Equipment Threshold (or if the resolution of the CCBU Equipment Dispute Notice is that it does not exceed the CCBU Subject Equipment Threshold), the CCBU Parties shall not be required to make any payments under this Section 2.12(a).

(iv) Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 2.12(a), if the parties have determined that the CCBU Parties are required to pay the CCBCC Parties with respect to Missing CCBU Equipment in accordance with this Section 2.12(a), the parties agree that the CCBU Parties shall, prior to paying any amounts under this Section 2.12(a), first attempt to substitute for pieces of the Missing CCBU Equipment comparable pieces of cold drink and vending equipment from the CCBU Parties’ inventory (A) with a comparable CCBU Agreed Replacement Value and in the same equipment category as the Missing CCBU Equipment, and (B) in good operating condition and in a state of good maintenance and repair consistent with current industry standards, ordinary wear and tear excepted. If the CCBU Parties are able to make any such substitution, they will transfer such substitute piece of equipment to the CCBCC Parties free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens, and relocate such equipment to a location in the CCBU Territory designated by the CCBCC Parties at the sole cost and expense of the CCBU Parties. If the CCBU Parties substitute comparable pieces of cold drink and vending equipment from the CCBU Parties’ inventory for pieces of Missing CCBU Equipment as described in this Section 2.12(a)(iv), then the amount that the CCBU Parties are to pay to the CCBCC Parties under Section 2.12(a)(iii) will be reduced by the CCBU Agreed Replacement Value of such Missing CCBU Equipment that is so substituted.

(v) The CCBCC Parties shall provide the CCBU Parties and their respective Representatives with reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the CCBCC Parties’ Representatives and such books and records as may be reasonably requested by the CCBU Parties and their respective Representatives in order to verify the information contained in the Missing CCBU Equipment Notice; provided, however, that such access shall not unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of the CCBCC Parties. The CCBCC Parties shall also provide the CCBU Parties and their respective Representatives with access to the CCBCC Parties’ sales and service records for purposes of determining whether the CCBCC Parties or any of their respective Affiliates have sold to or serviced any CCBU Subject Equipment. The CCBCC Parties hereby covenant and agree that they shall maintain and track the CCBU asset tracking number for each item of CCBU Subject Equipment as those utilized by the CCBU Parties prior to the Closing.

(i) Set forth on Section 2.03(a)(iii) of the CCBCC Disclosure Schedule is a list of the CCBCC Subject Equipment that the CCBCC Parties have assigned a Net Book Value greater than $20 and that has been serviced within the previous twenty-four (24) months and/or has produced revenue within the previous twelve (12) months and the location thereof (as updated pursuant to this

Section 2.12(b), the “Key CCBCC Subject Equipment”), as well as a depreciation schedule and the acquisition cost for the Key CCBCC Subject Equipment. Within one hundred twenty (120) days following the Closing, the CCBCC Parties will, by written notice to the CCBU Parties in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, amend or supplement Section 2.03(a)(iii) of the CCBCC Disclosure Schedule (as amended or supplemented, the “Closing Key CCBCC Subject Equipment Schedule”) to update the list of Key CCBCC Subject Equipment existing as of the Closing Date and the corresponding acquisition cost and accumulated depreciation (such update for the accumulated depreciation shall be made to the accumulated depreciation data set forth in the update of Section 2.03(a)(iii) of the CCBCC Disclosure Schedule delivered pursuant to Section 5.08(b)) for such Key CCBCC Subject Equipment, as well as the method for computing the agreed replacement value of each item of Key CCBCC Subject Equipment (the “CCBCC Agreed Replacement Value”) following the Closing and a “weighted average” value for each category of Key CCBCC Subject Equipment (the “CCBCC Weighted Average Value”) as of the Closing Date.

(ii) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, although the physical location or existence of certain pieces of the Key CCBCC Subject Equipment as reflected on the Closing Key CCBCC Subject Equipment Schedule may not be determinable, the failure of the CCBU Parties to locate or determine the existence of all such Key CCBCC Subject Equipment will not provide the basis of or result in a reduction of or adjustment to the Additional Consideration (except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.12(b)) or otherwise provide the basis of or result in a claim for indemnification under Article IX. Within ten (10) Business Days following the six (6) month anniversary of the delivery by the CCBCC Parties to the CCBU Parties of the Closing Key CCBCC Subject Equipment Schedule, the CCBU Parties shall deliver written notice to the CCBCC Parties (the “Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice”) with the following information: (I) a list of each item of Key CCBCC Subject Equipment which the CCBU Parties have failed to locate or the existence of which the CCBU Parties have failed to determine (the “Missing CCBCC Equipment”), (II) the CCBCC Weighted Average Value of each item of Missing CCBCC Equipment, (III) a list of each other item of CCBCC Subject Equipment present at the location specified for an item of Missing CCBCC Equipment on the Closing Key CCBCC Subject Equipment Schedule, which list shall specify the location (outlet name and address along with outlet number), make, model and asset identification number for each such other item of CCBCC Subject Equipment, the date such item was observed and the name of the individual who made such observation, and (IV) a list of any CCBCC Substitute Subject Equipment that the CCBU Parties have located during the period following the Closing; provided, that the CCBU Parties may only provide one (1) Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice, which Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice may be adjusted pursuant to Section 2.12(b)(iii). The Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice will also include a calculation (the “CCBCC Threshold Calculation”) of whether the total CCBCC Weighted Average Value of all Missing CCBCC Equipment included in the Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice exceeds five percent (5%) (the “CCBCC Subject Equipment Threshold”)

of the total CCBCC Weighted Average Value of (x) all Key CCBCC Subject Equipment listed on the Closing Key CCBCC Subject Equipment Schedule plus (y) any CCBCC Substitute Subject Equipment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, the provision of a Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) and the rights of the CCBU Parties with respect thereto set forth in this Section 2.12(b) are the sole and exclusive remedy hereunder available to the CCBU Parties with respect to Missing CCBCC Equipment. In addition, between the date that the Closing Key CCBCC Subject Equipment Schedule is delivered by the CCBCC Parties to the CCBU Parties and the date that the corresponding Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice is delivered by the CCBU Parties to the CCBCC Parties, the CCBU Parties shall provide to the CCBCC Parties monthly written updates regarding the status of any Missing CCBCC Equipment by not later than twenty (20) Business Days after the end of each month. If and to the extent that the relocation within the CCBCC Territory of any CCBCC Substitute Subject Equipment is necessary (as determined by the CCBU Parties in their sole discretion), the CCBCC Parties will bear any out of pocket costs related to such relocation. Such CCBCC Substitute Subject Equipment will be free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens.

(iii) The CCBCC Parties shall have ninety (90) days following receipt of the Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice during which to notify the CCBU Parties of any dispute of any Missing CCBCC Equipment contained on the Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice (a “CCBCC Equipment Dispute Notice”). If the CCBCC Parties do not provide the CCBU Parties with a CCBCC Equipment Dispute Notice within such ninety (90) day period, the Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice prepared by the CCBU Parties shall be deemed to be final and will be conclusive and binding upon the parties hereto. If the CCBCC Parties do provide the CCBU Parties with a CCBCC Equipment Dispute Notice within such ninety (90) day period, then the CCBU Parties and the CCBCC Parties shall cooperate in good faith to resolve any such dispute as promptly as possible. If the total CCBCC Weighted Average Value of all of the Missing CCBCC Equipment set forth on the Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice and described in the CCBCC Threshold Calculation exceeds the CCBCC Subject Equipment Threshold (or if the resolution of the CCBCC Equipment Dispute Notice is that it exceeds the CCBCC Subject Equipment Threshold), the CCBCC Parties shall pay the CCBU Parties the dollar value (based on the CCBCC Agreed Replacement Value as of the Closing Date) of all of the Missing CCBCC Equipment (and not just the Missing CCBCC Equipment in excess of the CCBCC Subject Equipment Threshold) set forth on the Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice. If the total CCBCC Weighted Average Value of all of the Missing CCBCC Equipment set forth on the Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice and described in the CCBCC Threshold Calculation does not exceed the CCBCC Subject Equipment Threshold (or if the resolution of the CCBCC Equipment Dispute Notice is that it does not exceed the CCBCC Subject Equipment Threshold), the CCBCC Parties shall not be required to make any payments under this Section 2.12(b).

(iv) Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Section 2.12(b), if the parties have determined that the CCBCC Parties are required to pay the CCBU Parties with respect to Missing CCBCC Equipment in accordance with this Section 2.12(b), the parties agree that the CCBCC Parties shall, prior to paying any amounts under this Section 2.12(b), first attempt to substitute for pieces of the Missing CCBCC Equipment comparable pieces of cold drink and vending equipment from the CCBCC Parties’ inventory (A) with a comparable CCBCC Agreed Replacement Value and in the same equipment category as the Missing CCBCC Equipment, and (B) in good operating condition and in a state of good maintenance and repair consistent with current industry standards, ordinary wear and tear excepted. If the CCBCC Parties are able to make any such substitution, they will transfer such substitute piece of equipment to the CCBU Parties free and clear of all Liens, except for Permitted Liens, and relocate such equipment to a location in the CCBCC Territory designated by the CCBU Parties at the sole cost and expense of the CCBCC Parties. If the CCBCC Parties substitute comparable pieces of cold drink and vending equipment from the CCBCC Parties’ inventory for pieces of Missing CCBCC Equipment as described in this Section 2.12(b)(iv), then the amount that the CCBCC Parties are to pay to the CCBU Parties under Section 2.12(b)(iii) will be reduced by the CCBCC Agreed Replacement Value of such Missing CCBCC Equipment that is so substituted.

(v) The CCBU Parties shall provide the CCBCC Parties and their respective Representatives with reasonable access, during normal business hours, to the CCBU Parties’ Representatives and such books and records as may be reasonably requested by the CCBCC Parties and their respective Representatives in order to verify the information contained in the Missing CCBCC Equipment Notice; provided, however, that such access shall not unreasonably interfere with the business or operations of the CCBU Parties.

103

and circumstances with respect to the subject matter of such claim or demand; provided, however, that the failure to provide such notice shall not release the Indemnifying Party from any of its obligations under this Article IX except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is prejudiced by such failure, it being understood that notices for claims in respect of a breach of a representation, warranty, covenant or agreement must be delivered prior to the expiration of any applicable survival period specified in Section 9.01 for such representation, warranty, covenant or agreement. Within forty-five (45) days after its receipt of the Third Party Claim notice (the “Third Party Claim Response Period”), the Indemnifying Party shall give notice to the Indemnified Party, in writing, either acknowledging or denying its obligations to indemnify and defend under this Article IX.

(b) If, during the Third Party Claim Response Period, the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it acknowledges its obligations to indemnify and defend the Indemnified Party against the Third Party Claim, then the Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume and control the defense of such Third Party Claim at its expense and through counsel of its choice if such Indemnifying Party gives notice in writing of its election to do so to the Indemnified Party, together with the acknowledgement of its obligations to indemnify , within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of notice from the Indemnified Party; provided, however, that an Indemnifying Party will not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim if such Third Party Claim could result in criminal liability of, or equitable remedies against, the Indemnified Party. If the Indemnifying Party so elects to undertake any such defense against a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense, except as set forth in the following sentence. An Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel at the Indemnifying Party’s expense if the named parties to any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party, and such Indemnified Party shall have been advised by counsel that a conflict of interest is likely to exist if the same counsel were to represent such Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party. If the Indemnifying Party elects to undertake such defense, the Indemnifying Party shall select counsel, contractors and consultants of recognized standing and competence after consultation with the Indemnified Party. Each party hereto shall, and shall cause each of its Affiliates, members, officers, agents and employees to, cooperate fully with the other parties hereto in connection with any Third Party Claim. The Indemnifying Party shall be authorized to consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, any Third Party Claim, without the consent of any Indemnified Party, provided that (i) the settlement or judgment involves only monetary payments, (ii) the Indemnifying Party pays or causes to be paid all amounts arising out of such settlement or judgment promptly following the effectiveness of such settlement or judgment and (iii) the Indemnifying Party obtains, as a condition of any settlement or other resolution, a complete release of any Indemnified Party affected by such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party does not assume, or is not entitled to assume, the defense of a Third Party Claim as provided in this Section 9.04(b), the Indemnified Party shall defend such Third Party Claim but shall not consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising from, such Third Party Claim without the consent of the Indemnifying Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided, that the Indemnified Party may consent to a settlement of, or the entry of any judgment arising

104

from, such Third Party Claim if such settlement or judgment includes an unconditional release of the Indemnifying Party and its Affiliates from all liability arising out of such Third Party Claim. With respect to a Third Party Claim regarding Taxes, the Indemnifying Party only has the right to control such Third Party Claim if it (x) relates to Taxes attributable to the CCBU Business or the CCBU Transferred Assets (if CCBU is the Indemnifying Party) or the CCBCC Business or the CCBCC Transferred Assets (if CCBCC is the Indemnifying Party) with respect to a taxable period or portion thereof ending prior to the Closing Date or (y) relates to Taxes imposed on the Indemnifying Party or its Affiliates, provided that with respect to any Third Party Claim with respect to Transaction Taxes, the CCBU Parties and the CCBCC Parties shall jointly control such Third Party Claim and shall share equally in any direct costs and expenses incurred by the parties with respect thereto.

(c) In the event that an Indemnified Party determines that it has a claim pursuant to Section 9.04(a) that does not involve a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Indemnifying Party, specifying the amount of such claim (if known or reasonably capable of estimation) and any relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto. The Indemnified Party shall provide the Indemnifying Party with reasonable access to its books and records, properties, assets, personnel, agents and advisors for the purpose of allowing the Indemnifying Party a reasonable opportunity to verify any such claim. The Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall negotiate in good faith regarding the resolution of any disputed claims of liability.

ARTICLE II – EMPLOYMENT

2.1 Offer of Employment.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.1, CCBC United shall have made offers of employment applicable to each Business Employee. Prior to the Closing Date, the CCBCC Parties shall provide CCBC United with a list of the Business Employees to whom such offers of employment shall be made, which list may be subject to modification but shall be final as of the date immediately prior to the Closing Date and is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(b) With respect to each Inactive Business Employee, CCBC United and the CCBCC Parties agree as follows:

(i) If such Inactive Business Employee returns to work during the period during which such Inactive Business Employee’s employment is protected under the FMLA, then CCBC United agrees to hire such Inactive Business Employee, effective upon his or her return to work and upon such terms and conditions as set forth in the FMLA.

(ii) If such Inactive Business Employee returns to work on or before the Anniversary Date but after the period during which such Inactive Business Employee’s employment is protected under the FMLA, CCBC United will hire such Inactive Business Employee only if a comparable position with CCBC United is available for which such Inactive Business Employee is qualified. If no such comparable position with CCBC United is available at such time, such Inactive Business Employee will not become a Transferred Employee and CCBC United shall have no further obligation with respect to such Inactive Business Employee. Such Inactive Business Employee may apply for vacant positions with CCBC United.

2.2 Terms of Offer. Each offer of employment made to a Business Employee pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof shall provide for: (a) employment with CCBC United (b) until at least the Anniversary Date, a total compensation amount (comprised of base salary or hourly wage, plus potential short-term incentive compensation target (annual, local and sales), if any) that is comparable in the aggregate to such Business Employee’s total compensation amount in effect as of immediately prior to the Closing Date, except for (i) “upside” incentive compensation above target and (ii) overtime, (c) except as otherwise provided in Article III of this Employee Matters Agreement, employee benefits that are not less favorable than those benefits provided to similarly-situated employees of CCBC United, and (d) if the Business Employee is a salaried employee whose work location prior to the Closing Date is more than fifty (50) miles from the required work location for CCBC United, a requirement that the employee agree to relocate to CCBC United’s required work location in accordance with CCBC United’s policies. CCBC United shall have no obligation to hire a Business Employee who receives a contingent offer pursuant to subclause (d) who does not agree to relocate to CCBC United’s required work location; however, CCBC United agrees to pay one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of severance benefits pursuant to the CCBCC Parties’ severance policies in effect as of the closing Date, if the CCBCC Parties are unsuccessful in identifying an alternate position for the employee within the CCBCC Parties’ organization within a reasonable time after the Closing Date. As used in this Section 2.2, the term “work location” shall mean the personnel area to which a Business Employee is assigned in the CCBCC Parties’ records. The CCBCC Parties shall provide the personnel area for any Business Employees upon request by CCBC United, and the CCBCC Parties and CCBC United agree to work together in good faith to correct any instance in which either party identifies a possible error in a Business Employee’s personnel area. The parties hereto understand and agree that CCBC United will bear one hundred percent (100%) of the expense associated with maintaining such total compensation amount referred to in subclause (b) above with respect to each Business Employee who becomes a Transferred Employee (as defined below) and that CCBC United is not required by this Employee Matters Agreement to duplicate the CCBCC Parties’ short-term incentive compensation plans and targets (annual, local and sales), so long as the total compensation amount for each Transferred Employee remains comparable in the aggregate to that in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, as contemplated in subclause (a) above, until at least the Anniversary Date. The parties hereto also understand and agree that, except as expressly set forth in this Employee Matters Agreement, CCBC United will have sole discretion and sole responsibility regarding the Transferred Employees’ salaries, hourly wages and short-term incentive compensation.

2.3 Transferred Employees. CCBC United shall give each Business Employee until the close of business on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date to accept an offer of employment made pursuant to this Article II, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.1(b) hereof. A Business Employee who accepts employment with CCBC United and commences working for CCBC United shall become a “Transferred Employee”. Each Active Business Employee who accepts employment with CCBC United shall become a Transferred Employee effective on the Closing Date and shall terminate his or her employment with the CCBCC Parties on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date. Each Inactive Business Employee who accepts employment with CCBC United shall become a Transferred Employee on the date he or she returns to work (“Deferred Hire Date”), provided such date is on or before the Anniversary Date, and shall terminate his or her employment with the CCBCC Parties as of the date immediately prior to the Deferred Hire Date. If an Inactive Business Employee does not return to work on or before the Anniversary Date, CCBC United shall have no obligation under this Employee Matters Agreement to hire such employee, and such employee shall not become a Transferred Employee. CCBC United agrees that it will not institute a reduction in force or otherwise terminate any Transferred Employees, other than for Cause, for a period of thirty (30) days after the Closing.

2.4 Rejected Offers. Except as provided in Section 2.2 hereof, CCBC United shall have no obligation with respect to any Business Employee who rejects CCBC United’s offer of employment made pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof. Except as referred to in Section 2.2 hereof, it is the intent of the parties that such employee shall not be entitled to any termination or severance benefits as a result of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Asset Exchange Agreement, and each of the parties shall cause their respective severance plans, policies, programs or arrangement to be interpreted and administered consistent with such intent.

2.5 WARN. The parties acknowledge their mutual understanding and intent that because of CCBC United’s obligation to offer employment to each Business Employee pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof, the termination of such Business Employees upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Asset Exchange Agreement shall not constitute a “plant closing” or “mass layoff” within the meaning of the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act or any similar state or local law (“WARN”). Accordingly, CCBC United shall be solely responsible and agrees to indemnify and hold the CCBCC Parties harmless for any Losses under WARN arising out of CCBC United’s failure to offer employment to all of the Business Employees pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof. CCBC United further agrees that it shall be solely responsible for any liability under WARN for any terminations of Transferred Employees occurring on or after the Closing Date.

ARTICLE III – EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

3.1 Severance. Each Transferred Employee will be eligible to participate in CCBC United’s severance plans (if any) under the same terms and conditions as other similarly-situated employees of CCBC United. Until the Anniversary Date, CCBC United agrees to provide to any Transferred Employee who is involuntarily terminated by CCBC United for any reason, other than for Cause (as defined herein), severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits such employee would have received under the CCBCC Parties’ policies as in effect and applicable to such employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, it being understood that CCBC United will bear one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of any severance benefits so paid pursuant to this Section 3.1. For purposes of this Section 3.1, “Cause” means a reason for termination based on an employee’s inappropriate behavior or conduct in violation of CCBC United’s rules, policies, or directives and/or in violation of law, including, without limitation, the employee’s inability to confirm eligibility for employment in the United States, but specifically excluding, however, an employee’s inability to meet performance goals or criteria. CCBC United further agrees that any such severance benefits paid in accordance with this Section shall be conditioned upon the Transferred Employee’s executing and timely returning a release of claims agreement, the form of which, in the case of severance paid pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 3.1, shall be mutually acceptable to CCBC United and the CCBCC Parties and shall include, without limitation, a release of any and all claims such employee may have arising out or relating to such employee’s employment with the CCBCC Parties and CCBC United or the termination thereof.

3.2 Service Credit. CCBC United shall take all actions necessary such that Transferred Employees shall be credited for their actual and credited service with the CCBCC Parties and each of its Affiliates, for purposes of participation, eligibility and vesting in CCBC United’s “employee welfare benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA), the CCBC United Savings Plan, and CCBC United’s vacation, service awards, and any other plans, policies or practices in which Transferred Employees may commence participation after the Closing; provided, however, that such crediting of service shall not operate to duplicate any benefit to any such Transferred Employee.

3.3 Health and Welfare Benefits. CCBC United shall take all action necessary to ensure that the Transferred Employees will be eligible to participate in CCBC United’s “employee welfare benefit plan” to the same extent as CCBC United’s other employees. CCBC United shall take all action necessary to ensure that, to the extent permitted under CCBC United’s “employee welfare benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA) covering Transferred Employees after the Closing, such plans shall (i) waive any pre-existing condition exclusions, (ii) waive any proof of insurability, and (iii) recognize, for purposes of satisfying any deductibles and out-of-pocket amounts maximums during the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs, any payments made by any Transferred Employee toward deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums in any health or other insurance plan of the CCBCC Parties or an Affiliate of the CCBCC Parties.

3.4 401(k) Benefits. The CCBCC Parties shall cause the Coca-Cola Bottling Co. Consolidated Retirement Savings Plan (the “CCBCC Plan”) to fully vest the Transferred Employees in their accounts immediately prior to their termination of employment with the CCBCC Parties and to prorate the employer-match contributions for the current year. CCBC United and the CCBCC Parties will share equally the cost and expense of providing such full vesting, provided that the parties hereto agree that (a) CCBC United will pay by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the CCBCC Parties any such amount allocated to CCBC United at the Closing, and (b) CCBC United shall not be responsible for any cost associated with the CCBCC Parties’ proration of the employer-match contributions referred to above. Transferred Employees will be eligible to participate in one or more defined contribution savings plans intended to qualify under Section 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code (“CCBC United Savings Plan”) and, effective as of the Closing Date, CCBC United shall cause the CCBC United Savings Plan to provide for receipt of Transferred Employees’ distribution of their account balances, including any outstanding loans, in the form of an eligible rollover distribution from the CCBCC Plan, provided such rollovers are made at the election of the Transferred Employees.

3.5 Automobile Allowance. CCBC United agrees to adopt or maintain an automobile allowance policy (“CCBC United’s Auto-Allowance Policy”) that is comparable, in the aggregate, to the CCBCC Parties’ automobile allowance policy in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date. Transferred Employees who participated in the CCBCC Parties’ automobile allowance policy immediately prior to Closing will be eligible to participate in CCBC United’s Auto-Allowance Policy effective as of the Closing Date and until at least the Anniversary Date.

3.6 COBRA Coverage. The CCBCC Parties shall be solely responsible for offering and providing any COBRA coverage with respect to any of the Business Employees who is a “qualified beneficiary,” who is covered by a CCBCC Parties Employee Plan that is a “group health plan” and who experiences a “qualifying event” on or prior to the date the employee becomes a Transferred Employee. CCBC United shall be solely responsible for offering and providing any COBRA coverage required with respect to any Transferred Employee (or other qualified beneficiary), who becomes covered by a group health plan sponsored or contributed to by CCBC United and who experiences a qualifying event subsequent to the date the employee becomes a Transferred Employee. For purposes hereof, each of “qualified beneficiary”, “group health plan” and “qualifying event” shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in Section 4980B of the Code.

3.7 Vacation Pay, Paid-Time Off, Holidays and Sick Pay.

(a) CCBCC shall transfer to CCBC United, and CCBC United shall assume and become responsible for, the accrued but unused vacation days of the Transferred Employees as of the Closing Date in the amounts reflected on a schedule thereof provided to CCBC United by the CCBCC Parties prior to the Closing Date (the “Accrued Vacation Amounts”), which Accrued Vacation Amounts may be used by the Transferred Employees through December 31, 2017, in accordance with CCBC United’s vacation and holiday policies, provided, that at the Closing, the CCBCC Parties will pay by wire transfer in immediately available funds to CCBC United an amount equal to the aggregate Accrued Vacation Amounts. Except as expressly set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, CCBC United shall not assume or otherwise become liable for, and the CCBCC Parties shall not transfer to CCBC United, any liabilities of the CCBCC Parties with respect to accrued but unused vacation, paid time off, or sick days. For a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date, CCBC United will honor the CCBCC Parties’ vacation and holiday policies as to the number of days available as in effect on the date immediately prior to the Closing for the benefit of the Transferred Employees, and will be responsible for paying or providing all leave that Transferred Employees accrue following the Closing Date and for paying any other costs associated with honoring such vacation and holiday policies until at least the Anniversary Date; provided, that CCBC United may, at its option, elect to provide the Transferred Employees with cash compensation in lieu of any such additional vacation or holidays that would be required under the CCBCC Parties’ vacation and holiday policies. Except as provided in this Section 3.7, Transferred Employees’ entitlement to vacation, sick time, holiday and personal time off will be accrued or available and used only in accordance with CCBC United’s own vacation, sick time, holiday and personal paid time off policies.

(b) The CCBCC Parties shall pay to each Transferred Employee an amount equal to the amount of such Transferred Employee’s accrued and unused sick pay as of the Closing Date in accordance with the CCBCC Parties’ regular payroll practices and procedures for the payment of wages to terminating employees. The CCBCC Parties will bear 100% of the cost and expense of such amounts and will communicate the timing and amount of such payouts to CCBC United. From and after the Closing Date, the Transferred Employees will accrue sick pay entitlement in accordance with CCBC United’s sick pay policy, commencing on the Closing Date.

3.8 Plan Authority. No CCBCC Parties Employee Plans or assets of any of the CCBCC Parties Employee Plans shall be transferred to CCBC United or any Affiliate of CCBC United. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, constitutes an amendment or modification to the CCBCC Parties Employee Plans or the CCBCC Parties’ policies, programs or arrangements. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, shall prohibit the parties or their Affiliates, as applicable, from adding, deleting or changing provider of benefits, changing, increasing or decreasing co-payments, deductibles or other requirements for coverage or benefits (e.g., utilization review or pre-certification requirements), and/or making other changes in the administration of or in the design, coverage and benefits provided to such Transferred Employees. Without reducing the obligations set forth in this Article III, no provision in this Employee Matters Agreement shall be construed as a limitation on the right of the parties or their Affiliates, as applicable, to suspend, amend, modify or terminate any employee benefit plan.

Further, no provision of this Employee Matters Agreement shall be construed as limiting the parties’ or their Affiliates’, as applicable, discretion and authority to interpret their respective employee benefit and compensation plans, agreements, arrangements, and programs in accordance with their terms and applicable law.

(c) In addition to, and not in limitation of, the foregoing, the parties agree that the CCBCC Parties shall have no liability to indemnify any CCBC United Indemnified Party under this Employee Matters Agreement with respect to any Losses to the extent such Losses are caused by or result from any action (i) that after the date of the Asset Exchange Agreement CCBC United requested the CCBCC Parties to take or refrain from taking in writing pursuant to Section 5.01(b) of the Asset Exchange Agreement (other than actions the CCBCC Parties are already obligated to take or refrain from taking under this Employee Matters Agreement or the

Asset Exchange Agreement, including, without limitation, actions taken, or that should be taken, in order to comply with the Negotiated Settlement Agreement), (ii) taken pursuant to a written consent from CCBC United specifically authorizing such action, but only as long as the CCBCC Parties’ request for written consent to such action was not related to curing a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the CCBCC Parties hereunder or under the Asset Exchange Agreement, or (iii) that the CCBCC Parties or any of its Affiliates, having sought CCBC United’s consent pursuant to Section 5.01(b) of the Asset Exchange Agreement, did not take as a result of CCBC United having unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned the requested consent, other than, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii), any such Losses constituting costs and expenses specifically and intentionally incurred by the CCBCC Parties to take any such action requested by CCBC United and agreed to by the CCBCC Parties.

2.1 Offer of Employment.

(a) Prior to the Closing Date, except as otherwise provided in this Section 2.1, the CCBCC Parties shall have made offers of employment applicable to each Business Employee. Prior to the Closing Date, CCBC United shall provide the CCBCC Parties with a list of the Business Employees to whom such offers of employment shall be made, which list may be subject to modification but shall be final as of the date immediately prior to the Closing Date and is attached hereto as Exhibit A.

(b) With respect to each Inactive Business Employee, CCBC United and the CCBCC Parties agree as follows:

(i) If such Inactive Business Employee returns to work during the period during which such Inactive Business Employee’s employment is protected under the FMLA, then the CCBCC Parties agree to hire such Inactive Business Employee, effective upon his or her return to work and upon such terms and conditions as set forth in the FMLA.

(ii) If such Inactive Business Employee returns to work on or before the Anniversary Date but after the period during which such Inactive Business Employee’s employment is protected under the FMLA, the CCBCC Parties will hire such Inactive Business Employee only if a comparable position with the CCBCC Parties is available for which such Inactive Business Employee is qualified. If no such comparable position with the CCBCC Parties is available at such time, such Inactive Business Employee will not become a Transferred Employee and the CCBCC Parties shall have no further obligation with respect to such Inactive Business Employee. Such Inactive Business Employee may apply for vacant positions with the CCBCC Parties.

2.2 Terms of Offer. Each offer of employment made to a Business Employee pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof shall provide for: (a) employment with one or more of the CCBCC Parties or a Subsidiary thereof, (b) until at least the Anniversary Date, a total compensation amount (comprised of base salary or hourly wage, plus potential short-term incentive compensation target (annual, local and sales), if any) that is comparable in the aggregate to such Business Employee’s total compensation amount in effect as of immediately prior to the Closing Date, except for (i) “upside” incentive compensation above target, and (ii) overtime, (c) except as otherwise provided in Article III of this Employee Matters Agreement, employee benefits that are not less favorable than those benefits provided to similarly-situated employees of the CCBCC Parties, and (d) if the Business Employee is a salaried employee whose work location prior to the Closing Date is more than fifty (50) miles from the required work location for the CCBCC Parties, in either case, a requirement that the employee agree to relocate to the CCBCC Parties’ required work location in accordance with the CCBCC Parties’ policies. The CCBCC Parties shall have no obligation to hire a Business Employee who receives a contingent offer pursuant to subclause (d) who does not agree to relocate to the CCBCC Parties’ required work location; however, the CCBCC Parties agree to pay one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of severance benefits payable to each such Business Employee pursuant to CCBC United’s Severance Pay Plan, as amended through December 1, 1999 (the “CCBC United Employee Severance Plan”), if CCBC United is unsuccessful in identifying an alternate position for the employee within CCBC United’s organization within a reasonable time after the Closing Date. As used in this Section 2.2, the term “work location” shall mean the personnel area to which a Business Employee is assigned in CCBC United’s records. CCBC United shall provide the personnel area for any Business Employees upon request by the CCBCC Parties, and CCBC United and the CCBCC Parties agree to work together in good faith to correct any instance in

which either party identifies a possible error in a Business Employee’s personnel area. The parties hereto understand and agree that the CCBCC Parties will bear one hundred percent (100%) of the expense associated with maintaining such total compensation amount referred to in subclause (b) above with respect to each Business Employee who becomes a Transferred Employee (as defined below) and that the CCBCC Parties are not required by this Employee Matters Agreement to duplicate CCBC United’s short-term incentive compensation plans and targets (annual, local and sales), so long as the total compensation amount for each Transferred Employee remains comparable in the aggregate to that in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, as contemplated in subclause (a) above, until at least the Anniversary Date. The parties hereto also understand and agree that, except as expressly set forth in this Employee Matters Agreement, the CCBCC Parties will have sole discretion and sole responsibility regarding the Transferred Employees’ salaries, hourly wages and short-term incentive compensation.

2.3 Transferred Employees. The CCBCC Parties shall give each Business Employee until the close of business on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date to accept an offer of employment made pursuant to this Article II, except as otherwise provided in Section 2.1(b) hereof. A Business Employee who accepts employment with the CCBCC Parties and commences working for the CCBCC Parties shall become a “Transferred Employee”. Each Active Business Employee who accepts employment with the CCBCC Parties shall become a Transferred Employee effective on the Closing Date and shall terminate his or her employment with CCBC United on the date immediately prior to the Closing Date. Each Inactive Business Employee who accepts employment with the CCBCC Parties shall become a Transferred Employee on the date he or she returns to work (“Deferred Hire Date”), provided such date is on or before the Anniversary Date, and shall terminate his or her employment with CCBC United as of the date immediately prior to the Deferred Hire Date. If an Inactive Business Employee does not return to work on or before the Anniversary Date, the CCBCC Parties shall have no obligation under this Employee Matters Agreement to hire such employee, and such employee shall not become a Transferred Employee. The CCBCC Parties agrees that it will not institute a reduction in force or otherwise terminate any Transferred Employees, other than for Cause, for a period of thirty (30) days after the Closing.

2.4 Rejected Offers. Except as provided in Section 2.2 hereof, the CCBCC Parties shall have no obligation with respect to any Business Employee who rejects the CCBCC Parties’ offer of employment made pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof. Except as referred to in Section 2.2 hereof, it is the intent of the parties that such employee shall not be entitled to any termination or severance benefits as a result of the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Asset Exchange Agreement, and each of the parties shall cause their respective severance plans, policies, programs or arrangement to be interpreted and administered consistent with such intent.

2.5 WARN. The parties acknowledge their mutual understanding and intent that because of the CCBCC Parties’ obligation to offer employment to each Business Employee pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof, the termination of such Business Employees upon the closing of

the transactions contemplated by the Asset Exchange Agreement shall not constitute a “plant closing” or “mass layoff” within the meaning of the Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act or any similar state or local law (“WARN”). Accordingly, the CCBCC Parties shall be solely responsible and agrees to indemnify and hold CCBC United harmless for any Losses under WARN arising out of the CCBCC Parties’ failure to offer employment to all of the Business Employees pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof. The CCBCC Parties further agree that it shall be solely responsible for any liability under WARN for any terminations of Transferred Employees occurring on or after the Closing Date.

ARTICLE III – EMPLOYEE BENEFITS

3.1 Severance. Each Transferred Employee will be eligible to participate in the CCBCC Parties’ severance plans (if any) under the same terms and conditions as other similarly-situated employees of CCBC United. Until the Anniversary Date, the CCBCC Parties agree to provide to any Transferred Employee who is involuntarily terminated by the CCBCC Parties for any reason, other than for Cause (as defined herein), severance benefits that are no less favorable than the severance benefits such employee would have received under CCBC United’s severance pay plans and policies, as in effect and applicable to such employee immediately prior to the Closing Date, it being understood that the CCBCC Parties will bear one hundred percent (100%) of the cost of any severance benefits so paid pursuant to this Section 3.1. For purposes of this Section 3.1, “Cause” means a reason for termination based on an employee’s inappropriate behavior or conduct in violation of the CCBCC Parties’ rules, policies, or directives and/or in violation of law, including, without limitation, the employee’s inability to confirm eligibility for employment in the United States, but specifically excluding, however, an employee’s inability to meet performance goals or criteria. The CCBCC Parties further agree that any such severance benefits paid in accordance with this Section shall be conditioned upon the Transferred Employee executing and timely returning a release of claims agreement, the form of which, in the case of severance paid pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 3.1, shall be mutually acceptable to CCBC United and the CCBCC Parties and shall include, without limitation, a release of any and all claims such employee may have arising out or relating to such employee’s employment with CCBC United and the CCBCC Parties or the termination thereof.

3.2 Service Credit. The CCBCC Parties shall take all actions necessary such that Transferred Employees shall be credited for their actual and credited service with CCBC United and each of its Affiliates, for purposes of participation, eligibility and vesting in the CCBCC Parties’ “employee welfare benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA), the CCBCC Parties Savings Plan, and the CCBCC Parties’ vacation, service awards, and any other plans, policies or practices in which Transferred Employees may commence participation after the Closing; provided, however, that such crediting of service shall not operate to duplicate any benefit to any such Transferred Employee.

3.3 Health and Welfare Benefits. The CCBCC Parties shall take all action necessary to ensure that the Transferred Employees will be eligible to participate in the CCBCC Parties’ “employee welfare benefit plan” to the same extent as the CCBCC Parties’ other employees. The CCBCC Parties shall take all action necessary to ensure that, to the extent permitted under the CCBCC Parties’ “employee welfare benefit plan” (within the meaning of Section 3(1) of ERISA) covering Transferred Employees after the Closing, such plans shall (i) waive any pre-existing condition exclusions, (ii) waive any proof of insurability, and (iii) recognize, for purposes of satisfying any deductibles and out-of-pocket amounts maximums during the plan year in which the Closing Date occurs, any payments made by any Transferred Employee toward deductibles and out-of-pocket maximums in any health or other insurance plan of the CCBCC Parties or an Affiliate of the CCBCC Parties. Within thirty (30) days after the Closing Date, CCBC United will make available to Transferred Employees a one-time cash payment to offset higher costs for employees in the CCBCC Parties’ “employee welfare benefit plans” calculated for a period of two (2) years as set forth in Schedule 1 attached hereto with respect to the item captions “Medical/Dental/Vision/Rx.” CCBC United and the CCBCC Parties will share equally the costs and expenses of such one-time cash payment and the CCBCC Parties will pay by wire transfer in immediately available funds to CCBC United the amount allocated to the CCBCC Parties at the Closing.

3.4 401(k) Benefits. CCBC United shall cause the CCBC United 401(k) Plan to fully vest the Transferred Employees in their accounts immediately prior to their termination of employment with CCBC United and to prorate the employer-match contributions for the current year. CCBC United and the CCBCC Parties will share equally the cost and expense of providing such full vesting, provided that the parties hereto agree that (a) the CCBCC Parties will pay by wire transfer in immediately available funds to CCBC United any such amount allocated to the CCBCC Parties at the Closing, and (b) the CCBCC Parties shall not be responsible for any cost associated with CCBC United’s proration of the employer-match contributions referred to above. Transferred Employees will be eligible to participate in one or more defined contribution savings plans intended to qualify under Section 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code (“CCBCC Parties Savings Plan”) and, effective as of the Closing Date, the CCBCC Parties shall cause the CCBCC Parties Savings Plan to provide for receipt of Transferred Employees’ distribution of their account balances, including any outstanding loans, in the form of an eligible rollover distribution from the CCBC United 401(k) Plan, provided such rollovers are made at the election of the Transferred Employees.

3.5 Automobile Allowance. The CCBCC Parties agree to adopt or maintain an automobile allowance policy (“CCBC Parties’ Auto-Allowance Policy”) that is comparable, in the aggregate, to CCBC United’s automobile allowance policy in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date. Transferred Employees who participated in CCBC United’s automobile allowance policy immediately prior to Closing will be eligible to participate in the CCBCC Parties’ Auto-Allowance Policy effective as of the Closing Date and until at least the Anniversary Date.

3.6 COBRA Coverage. CCBC United shall be solely responsible for offering and providing any COBRA coverage with respect to any of the Business Employees who is a “qualified beneficiary,” who is covered by a CCBC United Employee Plan that is a “group health plan” and who experiences a “qualifying event” on or prior to the date the employee becomes a Transferred Employee. The CCBCC Parties shall be solely responsible for offering and providing any COBRA coverage required with respect to any Transferred Employee (or other qualified beneficiary), who becomes covered by a group health plan sponsored or contributed to by the CCBCC Parties and who experiences a qualifying event subsequent to the date the employee becomes a Transferred Employee. For purposes hereof, each of “qualified beneficiary”, “group health plan” and “qualifying event” shall have the meaning ascribed thereto in Section 4980B of the Code.

3.7 Vacation Pay, Paid-Time Off, Holidays and Sick Pay.

(a) CCBC United shall transfer to the CCBCC Parties, and the CCBCC Parties shall assume and become responsible for, the accrued but unused vacation days of the Transferred Employees as of the Closing Date in the amounts reflected on a schedule thereof provided to the CCBCC Parties by CCBC United prior to the Closing Date (the “Accrued Vacation Amounts”), which Accrued Vacation Amounts may be used by the Transferred Employees through December 31, 2017, in accordance with the CCBCC Parties’ vacation and holiday policies, provided, that at the Closing, CCBC United will pay by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the CCBCC Parties an amount equal to the aggregate Accrued Vacation Amounts. Except as expressly set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the CCBCC Parties shall not assume or otherwise become liable for, and CCBC United shall not transfer to the CCBCC Parties, any liabilities of CCBC United with respect to accrued but unused vacation, paid time off, or sick days. For a period of one (1) year after the Closing Date, the CCBCC Parties will honor CCBC United’s vacation and holiday policies as to the number of days available as in effect on the date immediately prior to the Closing for the benefit of the Transferred Employees, and will be responsible for paying or providing all leave that Transferred Employees accrue following the Closing Date and for paying any other costs associated with honoring such vacation and holiday policies until at least the Anniversary Date; provided, that the CCBCC Parties may, at their option, elect to provide the Transferred Employees with cash compensation in lieu of any such additional vacation or holidays that would be required under CCBC United’s vacation and holiday policies. Except as provided in this Section 3.7, Transferred Employees’ entitlement to vacation, sick time, holiday and personal time off will be accrued or available and used only in accordance with the CCBCC Parties’ own vacation, sick time, holiday and personal paid time off policies.

(b) CCBC United shall pay to each Transferred Employee an amount equal to the amount of such Transferred Employee’s accrued and unused sick pay as of the Closing Date in accordance with CCBC United’s regular payroll practices and procedures for the payment of wages to terminating employees. CCBC United will bear 100% of the cost and expense of such amounts and will communicate the timing and amount of such payouts to the CCBCC Parties. From and after the Closing Date, the Transferred Employees will accrue sick pay entitlement in accordance with CCBCC Parties’ sick pay policy, commencing on the Closing Date.

3.8 Plan Authority. No CCBC United Employee Plans or assets of any CCBC United Employee Plans shall be transferred to the CCBCC Parties or any Affiliate of the CCBCC Parties. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, constitutes an amendment or modification to CCBC United Employee Plans or CCBC United policies, programs or arrangements. Nothing contained herein, express or implied, shall prohibit the parties or their Affiliates, as applicable, from adding, deleting or changing provider of benefits, changing, increasing or decreasing co-payments, deductibles or other requirements for coverage or benefits (e.g., utilization review or pre-certification requirements), and/or making other changes in the administration of or in the design, coverage and benefits provided to such Transferred Employees. Without reducing the obligations set forth in this Article III, no provision in this Employee Matters Agreement shall be construed as a limitation on the right of the parties or their Affiliates, as applicable, to suspend, amend, modify or terminate any employee benefit plan. Further, no provision of this Employee Matters Agreement shall be construed as limiting the parties’ or their Affiliates’, as applicable, discretion and authority to interpret their respective employee benefit and compensation plans, agreements, arrangements, and programs in accordance with their terms and applicable law.

ARTICLE IV – OTHER EMPLOYEE MATTERS
