 9. Chain of controlled undertakings through which the voting rights and/or 
  the 
  financial instruments are effectively held, if applicable: (xxi) 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 
            On October 1, 2014, the College Retirement Equities Fund ("CREF") purchased 
             9,182 shares of Britvic Plc, bringing CREF's holdings to 8,100,225 shares 
             in Britvic Plc. CREF owns these shares through two of its investment 
             accounts, the Stock Account and the Global Equities Account. It is our 
             understanding there were 247,229,115 total voting shares in Britvic Plc 
             that were outstanding on October 1, 2014 , bringing CREF's total ownership 
             in Britvic Plc to 3.276%. CREF is a U.S.-based SEC registered investment 
             company that is managed by TIAA-CREF Investment Management, LLC ("TCIM"), 
             an SEC registered investment adviser. 
 
             Additionally, certain affiliates of CREF own 1,883,335 shares of Britvic 
             Plc. 1,674,773 of these shares are owned by the TIAA-CREF Funds and the 
             TIAA-CREF Life Funds, each of which is a U.S.-based SEC registered investment 
             company that is managed by Teachers Advisors, Inc. ("TAI"), an SEC registered 
             investment adviser. TAI is affiliated with TCIM and both are indirect, 
             wholly-owned subsidiaries of Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association 
             of America ("TIAA"), a New York insurance company. 208,562 of these shares 
             are also owned by certain accounts of Nuveen Asset Management, LLC ("NAM"), 
             an SEC registered investment adviser. On October 1, 2014, TIAA closed 
             the acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding stock of NAML and 
             its affiliates (the "Acquisition"), thus making NAML an affiliate of 
             TIAA, TCIM and TAI. As a result of the Acquisition, the combined TIAA-Nuveen 
             enterprise now has aggregated holdings of 9,983,560 shares or 4.038% 
             of the issued and outstanding voting shares in Britvic Plc. 
 
             Each of TCIM, TAI and NAM are aggregating their holdings in Britvic Plc 
             following the closing of the Acquisition as required by current FCA Disclosure 
             and Transparency Rules. However, each of TCIM, TAI and NAML separately 
             and independently vote all proxies for shares held in Britvic Plc.
