Solicitation of Consents for the Proposed Amendments to the Existing Indenture

          This Amendment No. 1 amends the prospectus supplement/offer to purchase and consent solicitation, dated May 22, 2017 (the "Original Offer to Purchase"). This Amendment No. 1 is incorporated by reference into the Original Offer to Purchase and should be read in conjunction therewith. This Amendment No. 1 is not complete without, and may not be delivered or used except in conjunction with, the Original Offer to Purchase. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Original Offer to Purchase.

           An investment in our securities involves risk. You should carefully consider the information under the heading "Risk Factors" beginning on page S-17 of the Original Offer to Purchase before you decide to provide your consent.

           Neither the United States Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of the KO Guarantees or determined if the Original Offer to Purchase or this Amendment No. 1 is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

EXTENSION OF CONSENT SOLICITATION FOR CERTAIN CCR NOTES ONLY

          On May 22, 2017, we offered (the "Offer") to purchase for cash, upon the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Original Offer to Purchase any and all of each series of notes of Coca-Cola Refreshments USA, Inc. listed in the Original Offer to Purchase (the "CCR Notes"), including the Zero Coupon Notes due June 20, 2020, 8.500% Debentures due February 1, 2022, 8.000% Debentures due September 15, 2022 and 7.000% Debentures due 2098 (collectively, the "Extended Notes"), from Holders of the CCR Notes. In conjunction with the Offer, we also solicited (the "Consent Solicitation") consents (the "Consents") to the Proposed Amendments, which would modify or remove certain of the covenants and events of default applicable to the Existing Indenture governing the CCR Notes, including the Extended Notes, to substantively conform to the operative covenants and events of default in the indenture governing The Coca-Cola Company's existing unsecured and unsubordinated debt. Subject to the conditions described in the Original Offer to Purchase, as amended by this Amendment No. 1, we intend to provide full and unconditional guarantees of the CCR Notes. Under the terms described in the Original Offer to Purchase, the Consent Solicitation for each series of CCR Notes, including each of the Extended Notes, would have expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 5, 2017.

          As described in the Original Offer to Purchase, we reserved the right, subject to applicable law, to extend the Offer and/or the Consent Solicitation at any time, with respect to any or all series of CCR Notes, for any reason. We further reserved the right to extend the Offer and/or the Consent Solicitation for one or more series of CCR Notes, while not extending for the remaining series of CCR Notes. Accordingly, we hereby waive the Cross-Consent Condition (as defined in the Original Offer to Purchase) with respect to the Extended Notes only.

           We are hereby extending the period for Holders of the Extended Notes to deliver Consents until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 20, 2017 (the "Extended Consent Expiration Date").

          Holders of Extended Notes may:

    tender their Extended Notes and thereby deliver the related Consents pursuant to the Offer on or before the Extended Consent Expiration Date; or

    deliver Consents without tendering their Extended Notes, pursuant to the Consent Solicitation on or before the Extended Consent Expiration Date.

          Holders of Extended Notes must validly tender their Extended Notes, and thereby deliver their respective Consents, on or before the Extended Consent Expiration Date in order to be eligible to receive the Total Consideration. Holders not tendering their Extended Notes pursuant to the Offer who wish to deliver Consents pursuant to the Consent Solicitation must validly deliver their Consents on or before the Extended Consent Expiration Date in order to be eligible to receive the Consent Payment. The right of Holders of Extended Notes to revoke tenders or deliveries of related Consents expired as of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on June 5, 2017.

          All references in the Original Offer to Purchase to the Early Tender and Consent Expiration Date in connection with the Extended Notes are hereby amended as described herein. All other descriptions, terms and conditions set forth in the Original Offer to Purchase remain unchanged.

The date of this Amendment No. 1 is June 6, 2017.
