AMENDMENT ONE TO
THE COCA-COLA COMPANY DEFERRED COMPENSATION PLAN
As Amended and Restated Effective December 17, 2003

        WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 8.4 of The Coca-Cola Company Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors may amend the Plan at any time;

        WHEREAS, the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 added new tax requirements in Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") Section 409A, applicable to nonqualified deferred compensation plans including the Plan;

        WHEREAS, subsequent Internal Revenue Service guidance provided transition rules for deferrals subject to the new requirements;

        WHEREAS, until a new Plan document is required to be adopted (currently no later than December 31, 2006), the Plan is to be operated in good faith compliance with the new rules;

        NOW THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended to add a new Article IX as follows:

ARTICLE IX
DEFERRALS SUBJECT TO SECTION 409A: INTERIM OPERATION
AND TRANSITION

        9.1    Section 409A    

        The American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 added new Code Section 409A. Certain deferrals under this Plan (generally, deferrals after December 31, 2004) are subject to Code Section 409A and the regulations thereafter. This Article details certain interim transition provisions allowed by the Internal Revenue Service, and is intended to apply until a restated Plan document is adopted.

        9.2    Special Election with Respect to 2004 Bonus (Paid in March 2005)    

        Pursuant to the transition relief provided in Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-1, the requirement in Code Section 409A(a)(4)(B) relating to timing of elections (i.e. requiring elections to be made prior to the beginning of the taxable year in which the services are performed giving rise to the compensation) shall not be applicable to deferrals of the 2004 Bonus (paid in March 2005), provided that the election is made prior to March 1, 2005 and the other requirements of Notice 2005-1 are met. Eligible Employees shall be allowed to elect to defer or increase an existing deferral election for the 2004 Incentive (paid in March 2005) so long as such election is made no later than March 1, 2005.

        9.3    Special Revocation Election with Respect to Deferrals Subject to Section 409A    

        Pursuant to the transition relief provided in Internal Revenue Service Notice 2005-1 and the proposed regulations under Code Section 409A, Participants who had elected to defer compensation subject to Code Section 409A may revoke or reduce certain deferral elections, as outlined below:

        Gains and losses on deemed investments will not be applied and Participants will have no claim to any deemed gains. No interest will be paid on any amounts. Such revocation must be elected by December 1, 2005.

        9.4    Good Faith Compliance    

        For deferrals subject to Code Section 409A, the Plan shall be operated in good faith compliance with Code Section 409A until final Internal Revenue Service guidance is issued. Such good faith operation shall include the plan changes outlined below which are effective for all deferrals subject to Code Section 409A. The Plan document shall be amended and restated no later than the deadline prescribed by the Internal Revenue Service (currently December 31, 2006) to reflect all provisions required by Code Section 409A and the regulations thereunder.

 
  Old/Grandfathered Provisions (for 2004 and earlier Plan Years)
