On September 21, 2016, Evan G. Greenberg informed The
Coca-Cola Company (the “Company”) of his intention to resign from the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”),
effective as of October 1, 2016, due to the increase in demands on his time, particularly following the acquisition by ACE Limited
(renamed Chubb Limited) of The Chubb Corporation earlier this year. As a result, his resignation will allow him to devote more
time and attention to other business commitments and pursuits, including as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Chubb Limited.
Mr. Greenberg did not communicate to the Company any disagreement
with the Company regarding its operations, policies or practices in connection with his resignation, nor is the Company aware of
any such disagreement. The Company is grateful to Mr. Greenberg for his valued service on the Board, particularly as chair of its
Audit Committee.
Ronald W. Allen has been appointed Acting Chair of the Audit Committee.
A copy of the press release issued by the Company is attached as
Exhibit 99.1.
