On May 17, 2021, The Coca-Cola
Company (the “Company”) completed its previously announced public offering of €150,000,000 aggregate principal amount
of its 0.400% Notes due 2030 (the “2030 notes”).
The offering of the 2030 notes
was made pursuant to the Company’s shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-234311) filed with the Securities
and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on October 24, 2019.
The 2030 notes were issued under
an Amended and Restated Indenture, dated as of April 26, 1988 (as supplemented, the “Indenture”), between the Company and
Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as successor to Bankers Trust Company, as trustee, as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture,
dated as of February 24, 1992, and the Second Supplemental Indenture, dated as of November 1, 2007, between the Company and Deutsche Bank
Trust Company Americas, as successor to Bankers Trust Company, as trustee. The 2030 notes constituted a further issuance of the Company’s
0.400% Notes due 2030, of which €500,000,000 aggregate principal amount was issued on May 6, 2021 (the “existing 2030 notes”)
under the Indenture. The 2030 notes have the same ISIN number and will trade interchangeably with the existing 2030 notes. The offering
price of the 2030 notes included accrued interest from, and including, May 6, 2021 to, but excluding, the issue date of the 2030 notes,
which was paid by the purchasers of the 2030 notes. After giving effect to the issuance of the 2030 notes, the Company now has €650,000,000
aggregate principal amount of 0.400% Notes due 2030 outstanding.
The Company intends to use the
net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, which may include working capital, capital expenditures and redemption
and repayment of short-term or long-term borrowings.
The Indenture and the form of global note for the offering are filed as
exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference.
