The Notes will be purchased by the Underwriter at 100.00% of their principal
amount (the "Initial Offering Price"). The Underwriter has advised PepsiCo that
it intends to offer all or part of the Notes directly to the public initially at
the Initial Offering Price of such Debt Securities. After the Notes are released
for sale to the public, the offering price and other selling terms may from time
to time be varied by the Underwriter.
For U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Notes will be treated as Fixed Rate
Debt Securities, issued without OID. This treatment is consistent with the
applicable provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the
final OID regulations, which are generally effective for debt instruments issued
on or after April 4, 1994.
