COTT ANNOUNCES INTENTION TO OFFER COMMON SHARES

TO FUND CLIFFSTAR ACQUISITION

TORONTO, ON and TAMPA, FL – Aug. 4, 2010 – Cott Corporation (NYSE:COT; TSX:BCB) announced today that it intends to offer, subject to market and other conditions, U.S. $65 million of its common shares pursuant to an underwritten public offering. In connection with the offering, Cott will grant the underwriters an option for 30 days to purchase an additional $9.75 million of common shares to cover over-allotments, if any.

Cott intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to fund a portion of the purchase price and related fees and expenses for the previously announced and pending acquisition of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Cliffstar Corporation and its affiliated companies (the “Cliffstar Acquisition”). The common share offering is expected to close concurrently with the Cliffstar Acquisition. Cott intends to finance the remaining portion of the acquisition of Cliffstar through a draw-down on its asset based lending facility, which Cott intends to amend in connection with the Cliffstar Acquisition to, among other things, increase the amount of borrowings available under such facility, as well as a previously announced private offering of U.S. $375.0 million aggregate principal amount of senior notes. If Cott does not complete the Cliffstar Acquisition, it intends to use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes.

Deutsche Bank Securities, J.P. Morgan and Morgan Stanley are acting as joint bookrunners for this offering. Barclay’s and BofA Merrill Lynch will be co-managers.

Cott has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) and will file a preliminary prospectus supplement with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read such documents and the other documents Cott has filed or will file with the Securities and Exchange Commission for more complete information about Cott and the offering.
