The
Pepsi Bottling Group, Inc. (the “Company” or
“PBG”) established the PBG Director Deferral Program
(the “Plan”) to permit Eligible Directors to defer
certain compensation paid to them as Directors. The material terms
of the Plan were approved by the Board of Directors by resolution
duly adopted on March 27, 2008 and the Plan is effective as of
January 1, 2009 (the “Effective Date”).
For
federal income tax purposes, the Plan is intended to be a
nonqualified unfunded deferred compensation plan that is unfunded
and unsecured. For purposes of ERISA, the Plan is intended to be
exempt from ERISA coverage as a plan that solely benefits
non-employees (or alternatively, a plan described in
Sections 201(2), 301(a)(3) and 401(a)(1) of ERISA providing
benefits to a select group of management or highly compensated
employees).
When
used in this Plan, the following underlined terms shall have the
meanings set forth below unless a different meaning is plainly
required by the context:
The
account maintained for a Participant on the books of the Company to
determine, from time to time, the Participant’s interest
under this Plan. The balance in such Account shall be determined by
the Plan Administrator. Each Participant’s Account shall
consist of at least one Deferral Subaccount for each separate
deferral under section 4.01. The Recordkeeper may also establish
such additional Deferral Subaccounts as it deems necessary for the
proper administration of the Plan. The Recordkeeper may also
combine Deferral Subaccounts to the extent it deems separate
accounts are not needed for sound recordkeeping. Where appropriate,
a reference to a Participant’s Account shall include a
reference to each applicable Deferral Subaccount that has been
established thereunder.
The
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to
time.
The
person or persons (including a trust or trusts) properly designated
by a Participant, as determined by the Plan Administrator, to
receive the amounts in one or more of the Participant’s
Deferral Subaccounts in the event of the Participant’s death
in accordance with section 4.02(c).
The
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to
time.
The
Pepsi Bottling Group, Inc., a corporation organized and existing
under the laws of the State of Delaware, or its successor or
successors.
2.06
Deferral Subaccount :
A
subaccount of a Participant’s Account maintained to reflect
his or her interest in the Plan attributable to each deferral (or
separately tracked portion of a deferral) of Director Compensation,
and earnings or losses credited to such subaccount in accordance
with section 5.01(b).
- 2 -
A
person who is a member of the Board of Directors of the Company and
who is not currently an employee of the PBG
Organization.
2.08
Director Compensation :
Direct
monetary remuneration to the extent payable in cash in U.S. dollars
to the Eligible Director by the Company for the discharge of his or
her duties as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company.
Director Compensation shall not include the amount of any
reimbursement by the Company for expenses incurred by the Eligible
Director in the discharge of his or her duties as a member of the
Board of Directors of the Company.
2.09
Distribution Valuation Date :
Each
date as specified by the Plan Administrator from time to time as of
which Participant Accounts are valued for purposes of a
distribution from a Participant’s Account. The current
Distribution Valuation Dates are March 31
st
,
June 30 th
,
September 30 th
and
December 31 st
. Any
current Distribution Valuation Date may be changed by the Plan
Administrator, provided that such change does not result in a
change in when deferrals are paid out that is impermissible under
Section 409A. Values are determined as of the close of a
Distribution Valuation Date or, if such date is not a business day,
as of the close of the preceding business day.
The
form prescribed by the Plan Administrator on which a Participant
specifies the amount of his or her Director Compensation to be
deferred and the timing and form of his or her deferral payout,
pursuant to the provisions of Article IV. An Election Form
need not exist in a paper format, and it is expressly authorized
that the Plan Administrator may make available for use such
technologies, including voice response systems, Internet-based
forms and any other electronic forms, as it deems appropriate from
time to time.
The
term “Eligible Director” shall have the meaning given
to it in section 3.01(b).
Public
Law 93-406, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as
amended from time to time.
- 3 -
For
purposes of converting a Participant’s deferrals to phantom
PBG Common Stock as of any date, and for converting dividend
equivalents to phantom PBG Common Stock as of any date, the Fair
Market Value of such stock is the closing price on such date (or if
such date is not a trading date, the first date immediately
following such date that is a trading date) for PBG Common Stock as
reported on the composite tape for securities listed on the New
York Stock Exchange, Inc., rounded to two decimal places. For
purposes of determining the value of a Plan distribution, the Fair
Market Value of phantom PBG Common Stock is determined as the
closing price on the applicable Distribution Valuation Date for PBG
Common Stock as reported on the composite tape for securities
listed on the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., rounded to two decimal
places.
The
individuals identified in accordance with the principles set forth
below.

General . Any Participant who at any time during the
applicable year is –

year under Section 416(i)(1) of the Code);
(2)
A 5-percent owner of any member of the PBG Organization;
or
(3)
A 1-percent owner of any member of the PBG Organization having
annual compensation of more than $150,000.

Employee in accordance with Section 416(i) of the Code and the
applicable regulations and other guidance of general applicability
issued thereunder or in connection therewith (provided, that
Section 416(i)(5) of the Code shall not apply in making such
determination), and provided further that the applicable year shall
be determined in accordance with Section 409A and that any
modification of the foregoing definition that applies under
Section 409A shall be taken into account.
(b)
Applicable Year . The Plan Administrator shall determine Key
Employees as of the last day of each calendar year (the

year, and the designation for a particular determination date shall
be effective for purposes of this Plan for the twelve month period
commending on April 1 st

next following calendar year. For purposes of the 2009 calendar
year, the prior sentence shall mean that the Key
- 4 -

determined by the Plan Administrator as of December 31, 2007
shall apply to the period from January 1, 2009 to

foregoing, the Plan Administrator shall treat all other employees
classified as Band E5 and above on the applicable determination
date prescribed in subsection (b) as Key Employees for
purposes of the Plan for the twelve month period commencing on
April 1 st
of the
next following calendar year, provided that if this would result in
counting more than 200 individuals as key employees as of any such
determination date, then the number treated as key employees will
be reduced to 200 by eliminating from consideration those employees
otherwise added by this subsection (c) in order by their base
compensation, from the lowest to the highest.

of the Code and the applicable regulations and other guidance of
general applicability that are issued thereunder.
2.24

maintains an ownership interest in the Company of at least 20%. In
the event the Participant also provides services other than as a
director for the Company and its affiliates, as determined under
the prior sentence, such other services shall not be taken into
account in determining when a Separation from Service occurs to the
extent permitted under Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h)(5). The term

Service”) with no change in meaning.

specific date selected by an Eligible Director that triggers a lump
sum payment of a deferral as specified in section 4.03 or 4.04. The

Payment Date(s) shall be the date or dates reflected on the
Election Form or the Second Look Election form that is made
available by the Plan Administrator for the deferral. In the event
that an Election Form or Second Look Election form only provides
for selecting a month and a year as the Specific Payment Date, the
first day of the month that is selected shall be the Specific
Payment Date.

3.01

during the period that he or she is a Director
hereunder.
(b) During
the period an individual satisfies the eligibility requirements of
this section, he or she shall be referred to as an Eligible
Director.
(c) Each
Eligible Director shall become an active Participant on the earlier
of the date an amount is first withheld from his or her

- 8 -
ARTICLE
IV — DEFERRAL OF COMPENSATION
(a) Each
Eligible Director may make an election to defer under the Plan in
10% increments up to 100% of his or her Director Compensation for a
Plan Year (disregarding any Director Compensation that is subject
to a Mandatory Deferral pursuant to section 4.05) in the manner
described in section 4.02. Such election to defer shall apply to
Director Compensation that is earned for services performed in the
corresponding Plan Year. A newly Eligible Director may only defer
the portion of his or her eligible Director Compensation for the
Plan Year in which he or she becomes an Eligible Director that is
earned for services performed after the date of his or her
election. For this purpose, if a valid Election Form is received
prior to the date on which the Eligible Director becomes a Director
and the Election Form is effective under section 4.02(a) as of the
date on which the Eligible Director becomes a Director, then the
Director shall be deemed to receive all of his or her Director
Compensation for the Plan Year in which he or she becomes an
Eligible Director after the date of the election. Any Director
Compensation deferred by an Eligible Director for a Plan Year will
be deducted for each payment period for the Plan Year for which he
or she has Director Compensation and is an Eligible
Director.
(b) To
be effective, an Eligible Director’s Election Form must set
forth the percentage of Director Compensation to be deferred and
any other information that may be requested by the Plan
Administrator from time to time. For this purpose, the Election
Form must meet the requirements of section 4.02.
4.02
Time and Manner of Deferral Election :
(a)
Deferral Election Deadlines . Ordinarily an Eligible
Director must make a deferral election for Director Compensation
earned for services performed in a Plan Year no later than
December 31 st
of the
calendar year immediately prior to the beginning of the Plan Year
(although the Plan Administrator may adopt policies that encourage
or require earlier submission of election forms). If
December 31 st
of
such year is not a business day, then the deadline for deferral
elections will be the first business day preceding
December 31 st
of
such year. In addition, an individual who has been nominated for
Director status must submit an Election Form prior to becoming an
Eligible Director or otherwise prior to rendering services as an
Eligible Director, and such Election Form will be effective
immediately upon commencement of the individual’s status as
an Eligible Director or otherwise upon commencement of his or her
services as an Eligible Director.
(b)
General Provisions . A separate deferral election under
subsection (a) above must be made by an Eligible Director for
each Plan Year’s compensation that is eligible for deferral.
If a properly completed and executed Election Form is not actually
received by the Plan Administrator (or, if authorized by the Plan
Administrator for this purpose, the Recordkeeper) by the prescribed
time in subsection (a) above, the Eligible Director will be
deemed to have elected not to defer any Director Compensation for
the applicable Plan Year. An election is irrevocable once received
and determined by the Plan Administrator to be properly
- 9 -
completed
(and such determination shall be made not later than the last date
for making the election in question). Increases or decreases in the
percentage a Participant elects to defer shall not be permitted
after the beginning of the applicable Plan Year.
(c)
Beneficiaries . A Participant may designate on the Election
Form (or in some other manner authorized by the Plan Administrator)
one or more Beneficiaries to receive payment, in the event of his
or her death, of the amounts credited to his or her Account;
provided that, to be effective, any Beneficiary designation must be
in writing, signed by the Participant, and must meet such other
standards (including any requirement for spousal consent) as the
Plan Administrator shall require from time to time. The Beneficiary
designation must also be filed with the Plan Administrator (or
Recordkeeper, if designated by the Plan Administrator for this
purpose) prior to the Participant’s death. An incomplete
Beneficiary designation, as determined by the Plan Administrator
(or Recordkeeper, if designated by the Plan Administrator for this
purpose), shall be void and of no effect. A Beneficiary designation
of an individual by name remains in effect regardless of any change
in the designated individual’s relationship to the
Participant. Any Beneficiary designation submitted to the Plan
Administrator (or Recordkeeper, if designated by the Plan
Administrator for this purpose) that only specifies a Beneficiary
by relationship shall not be considered an effective Beneficiary
designation and shall be void and of no effect. If more than one
Beneficiary is specified and the Participant fails to indicate the
respective percentage applicable to two or more Beneficiaries, then
each Beneficiary for whom a percentage is not designated will be
entitled to an equal share of the portion of the Account (if any)
for which percentages have not been designated. At any time, a
Participant may change a Beneficiary designation for his or her
Account in a writing that is signed by the Participant and filed
with the Plan Administrator (or Recordkeeper, if designated by the
Plan Administrator for this purpose) prior to the
Participant’s death, and that meets such other standards as
the Plan Administrator shall require from time to time. An
individual who is otherwise a Beneficiary with respect to a
Participant’s Account ceases to be a Beneficiary when all
payments have been made from the Account.
4.03
Period of Deferral; Form of Payment :
(a)
Period of Deferral . An Eligible Director making a deferral
election shall specify a deferral period on his or her Election
Form by designating either a Specific Payment Date or the date he
or she incurs a Separation from Service. Notwithstanding an
Eligible Director’s actual election of a Specific Payment
Date, an Eligible Director shall be deemed to have elected a period
of deferral of not less than one year after the end of the Plan
Year for which the Compensation would have been paid absent
deferral.
If
the Specific Payment Date selected by an Eligible Director would
result in a period of deferral that is less than this minimum
deferral period, the Eligible Director shall be deemed to have
selected a Specific Payment Date equal to the minimum period of
deferral as provided in the preceding sentence. If an Eligible
Director fails to affirmatively designate a period of deferral on
his or her Election Form, he or she shall be deemed to have
specified the date on which he or she incurs a Separation from
Service.
- 10 -
(b)
Form of Payment . An Eligible Director making a deferral
election shall be eligible for a lump sum payment only.
4.04
Second Look Election :
(a)
General . Subject to subsection (b) below, a
Participant who has made a valid initial deferral in accordance
with the foregoing provisions of this Article may subsequently make
another one-time election regarding the time of payment of his or
her deferral. This opportunity to modify the Participant’s
initial election is r
