On March 1, 2021, Keurig Dr Pepper Inc. ("KDP" or the "Company") entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement") with BofA Securities, Inc., Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and SMBC Nikko Securities America, Inc., as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (the "Underwriters") pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell a total of $1,150 million aggregate principal amount of its 0.750% Senior Notes due 2024 (the "2024 Notes"), $500 million aggregate principal amount of its 2.250% Senior Notes due 2031 (the "2031 Notes") and $500 million aggregate principal amount of its 3.350% Senior Notes due 2051 (the "2051 Notes" and, together with the 2024 Notes and the 2031 Notes, the "Notes") to the Underwriters. The Company estimates that the net proceeds from the offering will be approximately $2,134 million (after underwriting discounts and offering expenses). The Underwriting Agreement contains customary representations and warranties, conditions to closing, indemnification rights, obligations of the parties and termination provisions.

The offering of the Notes was made pursuant to the Company's registration statement on Form S-3 (File Nos. 333-233477 and 333-233506). The closing of the offering of the Notes is expected to occur on March 15, 2021, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
