____________________________
(1) The two office buildings owned by our Packaged Beverages operating segment includes our corporate headquarters located
in Plano, Texas.
(2) The three manufacturing facilities owned by Latin America Beverages operating segment includes the manufacturing facility
for our joint venture with Acqua Minerale San Benedetto.
The properties presentation provided in Item 2 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010
included all distribution centers and warehouses. The properties presentation provided herein presents our principal distribution
centers and warehouse facilities.
We believe our facilities in the U.S. and Mexico are well-maintained and adequate, that they are being appropriately utilized
in line with past experience, and that they have sufficient production capacity for their present intended purposes. The extent of
utilization of such facilities varies based on seasonal demand of our products. It is not possible to measure with any degree of
certainty or uniformity the productive capacity and extent of utilization of these facilities. We periodically review our space
requirements, and we believe we will be able to acquire new space and facilities as and when needed on reasonable terms. We
also look to consolidate and dispose or sublet facilities we no longer need, as and when appropriate.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
We are occasionally subject to litigation or other legal proceedings relating to our business. See Note 18 of the Notes to our
Audited Consolidated Financial Statements for more information related to commitments and contingencies, which are incorporated
herein by reference.
ITEM 4. MINE SAFETY DISCLOSURES
Not applicable.
