were $5.2 billion in 2004, $4.0 billion in 2003 and $3.2 billion in 2002. Total support payments, primarily
marketing, made to equity investees other than CCE were approximately $442 million, $511 million and

During the second quarter of 2004, the Company’s equity income benefited by approximately $37 million
for its share of a favorable tax settlement related to Coca-Cola FEMSA, S.A. de C.V. (‘‘Coca-Cola FEMSA’’).
In December 2004, the Company sold certain of its production assets to an unrelated financial institution
that were previously leased to the Japanese supply chain management company (refer to discussion below). The
assets were sold for $271 million and the sale resulted in no gain or loss. The financial institution entered into a
leasing arrangement with the Japanese supply chain management company. These assets were previously
reported in our consolidated balance sheet caption property, plant and equipment and assigned to our Asia
operating segment.
