Mexico City, Mexico - March 14, 2019 - Coca-Cola FEMSA, S.A.B. de C.V. (the "Company"), the largest franchise bottler of Coca-Cola products in the world in terms of sales volume, held its Annual Ordinary General Shareholders' Meeting today, during which its shareholders approved the Company's consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2018, the annual reports presented by the Board of Directors, the declaration of dividends corresponding to the fiscal year 2018 and the appointment of the members of the Board of Directors and the Finance and Planning, Audit, and Corporate Practices Committees for 2019.

Pursuant to Mexican law, the shareholders' meeting approved the amount of Ps. 900 million as the maximum amount that can potentially be used for the share repurchase program during 2019.

The shareholders' meeting approved the payment of a cash dividend of Ps. 3.54 per share, to be paid in two installments; the first installment for the amount of Ps.1.77 as of May 3, 2019 and the second installment for the amount of Ps.1.77 as of November 1, 2019, for all outstanding shares at the payment date.

The aggregate amount of dividends to be paid by the Company will not be modified due to the stock split agreed at the extraordinary shareholders meeting held on January 31, 2019 which is still subject to the approval of the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission (the "Stock Split"), and by means of which it was agreed to split (i) each Series A and Series D shares into eight shares, and (ii) each Series L share, into five Series L shares and three Series B shares, which will be represented by units for their listing on the Mexican Stock Exchange ("BMV") and on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"). Therefore, in the event that the listing of the units in the BMV and NYSE is completed and the Stock Split takes effect prior to the dividend payment dates mentioned above, then the balance of the amount to be paid per share will be divided by eight, considering also that the units will represent eight shares.
