Evan G. Greenberg to Resign from The Coca-Cola Company Board of Directors

ATLANTA–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Coca-Cola Company said today that Evan G. Greenberg, 61, has
informed the Company that he will resign from the Company’s Board of
Directors, effective Oct. 1, 2016. Greenberg said his decision was based
on increased demands on his time resulting from an acquisition by his
company earlier this year to create Chubb Limited, of which he is now
the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.


Greenberg commented: “Due to increasing demands on my time following a
major recent acquisition by my company, I have decided to resign from
The Coca-Cola Company’s Board of Directors to devote my full attention
to my expanded business commitments as Chairman and CEO of Chubb
Limited. I have enjoyed the opportunity of serving on the board over the
past few years and believe the Company has strong plans in place for the
future. I have every confidence in the Company’s leadership and wish
Muhtar Kent and James Quincey well as they build an exciting future for
the Company and its many stakeholders.”

Muhtar Kent, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, The Coca-Cola
Company, said: “On behalf of everyone at Coca-Cola, I want to thank Evan
for his leadership and service to our board. We have benefitted greatly
from Evan’s deep experience and perspective, and we wish him every
