Gavin Hattersley Shareholder Engagement First Quarter 2021 Forward Looking Statements This presentation includes “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the U.S. federal securities laws. Generally, the words “believe,” "aims," “expect,” “intend,” “anticipate,” “project,” “will,” “outlook,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements, which generally are not historic in nature. Statements that refer to projections of our future financial performance, our anticipated results, cost savings and trends in our businesses, and other characterizations of future events or circumstances are forward-looking statements, and include, but are not limited to, impacts of the Coronavirus pandemic on our operations, liquidity, financial condition and financial results, expectations regarding future dividends, overall volume trends, consumer preferences, pricing trends, industry forces, cost reduction strategies, including our revitalization plan announced in 2019 and the estimated range of related charges and timing of cash charges, anticipated results, expectations for funding future capital expenditures and operations, debt service capabilities, timing and amounts of debt and leverage levels, shipment levels and profitability, market share and the sufficiency of capital resources. Although the Company believes that the assumptions upon which its forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, it can give no assurance that these assumptions will prove to be correct. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the Company’s historical experience, and present projections and expectations are disclosed in the Company’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). These factors include, among others, the impact of the Coronavirus pandemic, the impact of increased competition resulting from further consolidation of brewers, competitive pricing and product pressures; health of the beer industry and our brands in our markets; economic conditions in our markets; additional impairment charges; our ability to maintain manufacturer/distribution agreements; changes in our supply chain system; availability or increase in the cost of packaging materials; success of our joint ventures; risks relating to operations in developing and emerging markets; our brand image, reputation, product quality and protection of intellectual property; changes in the social acceptability, perceptions and the political views of beverage categories; changes in legal and regulatory requirements, including the regulation of distribution systems; unfavorable outcomes of legal or regulatory matters; fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates; increase in the cost of commodities used in the business; the impact of climate change and the availability and quality of water; loss or closure of a major brewery or other key facility; our ability to implement our strategic initiatives, including executing and realizing cost savings; pension plan and other post- retirement benefit costs; failure to comply with debt covenants or deterioration in our credit rating; our ability to maintain good labor relations; a breach of our information systems; and other risks discussed in our filings with the SEC, including our most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q. All forward-looking statements in this presentation are expressly qualified by such cautionary statements and by reference to the underlying assumptions. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made. We do not undertake to update forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

    CITY TECH WRITER OUTSTANDING STUDENT WRITING FROM ALL DISCIPLINES VOLUME 1 2006 JANE MUSHABAC, EDITOR IN CHIEF Cover by Yifang Gonzalez New York City College of Technology City University of New York Introduction City Tech Writer is a most welcome addition to the College. The distinction between personal writing and academic writing is no longer as sharp or absolute as it once was; however, unlike a more traditional “literary” magazine that focuses on poetry and fiction, City Tech Writer is somewhat unusual in its focus on the writing—and the thinking—that students are doing as part of their course of study. Writing may be a solitary act or it may be collaborative, but all good writing is done with an audience in mind—the conscious reader who follows the line of thought, sometimes contesting its logic, sometimes nodding in agreement. City Tech Writer makes that audience real. In so doing, it both celebrates and stimulates good writing. My thanks to Professor Jane Mushabac, a writer who knows how to inspire and nurture new writers, to the faculty members who have guided their students’ work and nominated it for inclusion in City Tech Writer, and especially to the City Tech writers themselves. Bonne August Acting Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs Preface In this inaugural issue, City Tech writers take us to the glass pavilion at the Brooklyn Museum, a village in Nigeria, a warehouse in Japan, a tractor and combine exhibition in Poland, a restaurant in Union Square, a crack-house in Bed-Stuy. The papers discuss campus speech codes; nurses’ renewal of licenses; the scientific method in the thirteenth and nineteenth centuries; and the problem of space, time, and motion.

TWIXT OCEAN AND PINES: THE SEASIDE RESORT AT VIRGINIA BEACH, 1880-1930 Jonathan Mark Souther Master of Arts University of Richmond, 1996 Robert C. Kenzer, Thesis Director This thesis descnbes the first fifty years of the creation of Virginia Beach as a seaside resort. It demonstrates the importance of railroads in promoting the resort and suggests that Virginia Beach followed a similar developmental pattern to that of other ocean resorts, particularly those ofthe famous New Jersey shore. Virginia Beach, plagued by infrastructure deficiencies and overshadowed by nearby Ocean View, did not stabilize until its promoters shifted their attention from wealthy northerners to Tidewater area residents. After experiencing difficulties exacerbated by the Panic of 1893, the burning of its premier hotel in 1907, and the hesitation bred by the Spanish American War and World War I, Virginia Beach enjoyed robust growth during the 1920s. While Virginia Beach is often perceived as a post- World War II community, this thesis argues that its prewar foundation was critical to its subsequent rise to become the largest city in Virginia.

Renewed support from both state and local legislatures paired with brewers’ preference towards sustainable best practices, has placed Virginia in a position to become a leader in the growing sustain- able craft beer industry. Craft breweries in America are defined as “small, independent, and traditional”: a craft brewery operation generally produces six million barrels of beer or less annually, is not primarily owned or controlled by an alcoholic beverage industry member that is not itself a craft brewer, and combines traditional and non-traditional ingredients with innovative fermentation and brewing techniques.

  • Why Did Molson Coors — a Beer Company That Is One of Colorado’S Most Iconic Brands — Move Its Headquarters to Chicago?
    Why did Molson Coors — a beer company that is one of Colorado’s most iconic brands — move its headquarters to Chicago? Company says need for marketing talent weighed heavily in decision to leave Denver The Coors Brewery can be seen from Vanover Park on Oct. 30, 2019, in Golden. By Aldo Svaldi | [email protected] | The Denver Post ‐ November 3, 2019 Uprooting a company nearly 150 years deep in a community is never easy, and Molson Coors Brewing Co.’s decision to shift its corporate headquarters from Denver to Chicago involved a lot of deliberation. “The leadership team and board struggled over it and agonized. We looked at this every way you could imagine,” said Adam Collins, chief communications and corporate affairs officer for Molson Coors. But in the end, one consideration dominated more than any other — marketing. “Marketing was the true reason,” said Matthew Hargarten, another company spokesman. Not Denver’s ability to market itself, but rather Molson Coors’ ability to find and retain the marketing talent it needed to roll out a host of new products designed to appeal to shifting consumer preferences in a world of flattening beer sales. Molson Coors said Wednesday it would close its Denver corporate headquarters, eliminating or moving 300 jobs. The move, part of a larger reduction of up to 500 jobs, is expected to save the company $150 million a year. That money will be used to fund product innovation and boost digital marketing. But Colorado isn’t just losing high‐paying jobs. Part of the state’s corporate identity is being stripped away, and its biggest foothold in the consumer goods market has slipped away.

  • Case Study: Coors Beer and AFL-CIO Slug It out in the Media
    Morris Page 1 Case Study: Coors Beer and AFL-CIO Slug it Out in the Media By Beverly Morris Introduction Innovations in communication and media technology have widened news and editorial coverage of corporate issues, and cultivated growing public interest and activism in corporate affairs. Businesses that once felt protected by privacy, now embrace the enabling capability of media relations. They also know that poorly executed media relations of their own, or well executed media relations on the part of adversaries, can have serious negative consequences. This case study examines how media relations, when handled skillfully, can assist a corporation with managing its financial vulnerability to adversarial attempts to manipulate its business practices through widespread communication techniques. Case Objective The case objective here is to present for analysis a Coors’s 1982 media relations problem and describe how the company’s solution strategy to address the problem demonstrates effective use of the media relations principles outlined in Chapter Six of Paul Argenti’s Corporate Communication (128-136). Executive Summary The Adolph Coors Company has a long and consistent history of contentious relations with labor unions. Highly publicized labor related boycotts and strikes against Coors have affected negatively the sales of Coors products and its reputation among consumers. The American Federation of Labor and Congress of Industrial Organizations (AFL-CIO) ran a consistent campaign of negative publicity against the brewery during a ten-year consumer boycott of Coors products. Coors said the boycott was based on information that was not true. Through the efforts of its corporate communication department and a major marketing communications consultant, the company was already acting to improve its image and reputation when an acute threat that could undermine its public relations efforts emerged.

Cambodia Week will be a reality , but not the way Paul Lingon imagined it By KEVIN MILLER Paul Lingon had an idea. Sparked by the Cambodian benefit concert held on campus in January, Lingon, along with a group of friends, envisioned a "Cambodia Week," filled with benefit concerts, student rallies and guest lectures by such notables as Rosalyn Carter. The idea was not just an idle dream. Lingon had planned an events schedule and talked to numerous organizations in Harrisonburg. He spoke to the first lady's personal secretary and was reasonably certain that because Mrs. Carter was active in the campaign against starvation in Cambodia, she would come here if the Cambodia Week activities were organized. Lingon also spoke to the vice president of NBC News; Peter Deno, who agreed to cover the week's events if they materialized. The Student Government Association agreed to collect and direct any funds received from the benefit. He Photo by Charles A.
