Explanation of Responses: |
1. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. |
2. The transaction involved the pro rata distribution of securities from the marital trust of a deceased family member to the reporting person and other family members as indirect residuary beneficiaries of the trust. |
3. The reporting person is one of three trustees and holds an indirect residuary interest in the trust. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. |
4. The reported securities are held in three trusts of which the reporting person is one of three trustees. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. |
5. The transaction involved the pro rata distribution of securities from the estate trust of a deceased family member to the reporting person and other family members as residuary beneficiaries of the trust. |
6. The reporting person is one of three trustees and holds a residuary interest in the trust. The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the reported securities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein. |
7. The transaction involved the pro rata distribution of securities from both the marital trust and estate trust of a deceased family member to the reporting person as an indirect or direct residuary beneficiary of these trusts. This distribution merely changed the form of the reporting person's beneficial ownership of the distributed securities from indirect to direct and therefore was exempt from Section 16 by virtue of Rule 16a-13. |

9. The phantom share units credited under The Coca-Cola Company Directors' Plan effective January 1, 2020 (the "Directors' Plan") are settled in cash the later of (i) January 15 of the year following the year in which the reporting person leaves the Board, or (ii) six months following the date on which the reporting person leaves the Board. |
10. This number includes phantom share units accrued through October 1, 2024 under the Directors' Plan as a result of crediting phantom dividends. |
