MOLSON COORS BREWING COMPANY AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

        Unless otherwise noted in this report, any description of "we", "us" or "our" includes Molson Coors Brewing Company ("MCBC" or the "Company"), principally a holding company, and its operating subsidiaries: MillerCoors LLC ("MillerCoors") which is accounted for by us under the equity method of accounting, Molson Coors Brewing Company (UK) Limited ("MCBC-UK"), Molson Coors Canada ("MCC") and our other operating entities as further described in Note 1 of the Notes to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements (the "Notes") included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 25, 2010 ("Annual Report").

        Unless otherwise indicated, information in this report is presented in U.S. dollars ("USD" or "$").

        The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments which are necessary for a fair statement of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). Such unaudited interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations.

        These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report and have been prepared on a consistent basis with the accounting policies described in Note 1 of the Notes. The results of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended June 25, 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.

        During the fourth quarter of 2010, we changed the classification of returnable bottles and pallets to noncurrent assets within Properties, net which were previously classified as current assets within Inventories—Packaging Materials, and have applied the classification change retrospectively in accordance with U.S. GAAP. This impacted the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the twenty-six weeks ended June 26, 2010 as discussed in Note 22 of the Notes.

        We follow a 52/53 week fiscal reporting calendar. The second fiscal quarter of 2011 and 2010 consisted of thirteen weeks ended on June 25, 2011 and June 26, 2010, respectively. The first half of 2011 and 2010 consisted of twenty-six weeks ended on June 25, 2011 and June 26, 2010, respectively. Fiscal year 2011 consists of 53 weeks ending on December 31, 2011 and fiscal year 2010 consisted of the 52 weeks ended December 25, 2010.

        Unless otherwise indicated, second quarter refers to the thirteen week periods ended June 25, 2011 and June 26, 2010 and first half refers to the twenty-six week periods ended June 25, 2011 and June 26, 2010.

        MillerCoors follows a monthly reporting calendar. The second quarter and first half of 2011 and 2010 consisted of three months and six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010, respectively.

        Our significant accounting policies are presented in Note 1 of the Notes and did not significantly change in the second quarter or first half of 2011.

        Consistent with the disclosure in the Annual Report, these significant accounting policies include our treatment of the allowance for credit losses on our MCBC-UK trade loan portfolio. This allowance is maintained to provide for probable loan losses related to specifically identified loans and for losses inherent in the loan portfolio that have been incurred at the balance sheet date. We establish our allowance through a provision for loan losses charged against earnings and recorded in marketing, general & administrative expenses. Loan balances that are written off are recorded against the

2. New Accounting Pronouncements

Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements

Goodwill Impairment Analysis

        In December 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued authoritative guidance related to the evaluation of goodwill impairment testing for reporting units with zero or negative carrying amounts, Upon adoption of the guidance and annually thereafter, an entity with reporting units that have carrying amounts that are zero or negative is required to assess whether it is more likely than not that the reporting units' goodwill is impaired. If the entity determines that it is more likely than not that the goodwill of one or more of its reporting units is impaired, the entity should perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test for those reporting units. The guidance was effective for our first quarter 2011. The adoption of this guidance did not impact our financial results.

New Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

Fair Value Measurement

        In May 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to fair value measurement and disclosure requirements. The new guidance results in a consistent definition of fair value and convergence between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS") on both how to measure fair value and on what disclosures to provide about fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for our quarter ending March 31, 2012. We are currently evaluating the impact that this guidance may have on the reporting of our financial results.

Presentation of Other Comprehensive Income

        In June 2011, the FASB issued authoritative guidance related to the presentation of other comprehensive income. Upon adoption of the guidance, an entity has the option to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Additionally, the entity is required to present on the face of the financial statements reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement where the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The guidance is effective for our quarter ending March 31, 2012. The impact of guidance is limited to a change in the presentation of our results.

4. Investments

        The investments included within this footnote include both equity method and consolidated investments. Those entities identified as variable interest entities ("VIEs") have been evaluated to determine whether we are the primary beneficiary. The VIEs included under Consolidated Investments below are those for which we have concluded that we are the primary beneficiary and accordingly consolidate these entities. We have not provided any financial support to any of our VIEs during the quarter that we were not previously contractually obligated to provide.

        Authoritative guidance related to the consolidation of VIEs requires that we continually reassess whether we are the primary beneficiary of VIEs in which we have an interest. As such, the conclusion regarding the primary beneficiary status is subject to change and we continually evaluate circumstances that could require consolidation or deconsolidation.

        As of June 25, 2011, there was $34.9 million of total unrecognized pre-tax compensation expense related to non-vested shares from share-based compensation arrangements granted under the Incentive Compensation Plan. This compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 1.2 years.

        The fair values of each option granted in the first half of 2011 and 2010, respectively, were determined on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

 
  For the Twenty-Six Weeks Ended
 
  June 25, 2011   June 26, 2010

Risk-free interest rate

  2.55%   2.95%

Dividend yield

Volatility range

  25.26% - 28.11%   27.2% - 29.5%

Weighted-average volatility

  26.37%   27.86%

Expected term (years)

  4.0 - 7.7   5.0 - 7.0

Weighted-average fair market value

  $9.66   $10.95

        The risk-free interest rates utilized for periods throughout the contractual life of the options are based on a zero-coupon U.S. Treasury security yield at the time of grant. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility of our stock. The expected term of options is estimated based upon observations of historical employee option exercise patterns and trends. The range on the expected term results from separate groups of employees who exhibit different historical exercise behavior.

        As of June 25, 2011, there were 3.7 million shares of our Class B common stock available for the issuance of stock options, SOSARs, RSUs, DSUs, PUs and performance share units under the Incentive Compensation Plan.

8. Discontinued Operations

        In 2006, we sold our entire equity interest in our Brazilian unit, Cervejarias Kaiser Brasil S.A. ("Kaiser") to FEMSA Cerveza S.A. de C.V. ("FEMSA"). The terms of the sale agreement require us to indemnify FEMSA for exposures related to certain tax, civil and labor contingencies arising prior to FEMSA's purchase of Kaiser. In the second quarter of 2011 and 2010, we recognized losses of $1.5 million and $0.6 million, respectively, from discontinued operations associated with foreign exchange gains and losses related to indemnities we provided to FEMSA with regard to contingent tax and other liabilities. During the first half of 2011 and of 2010, we recognized a loss of $1.2 million and a gain of $42.0 million, respectively. We recognized a gain of $42.6 million related to our settlement of a portion of our indemnity liabilities to FEMSA during the first quarter of 2010. See further discussion in Note 15 "Commitments and Contingencies."

        Our tax rate is volatile and may fluctuate with changes in, among other things, the amount and source of income or loss, our ability to utilize foreign tax credits, changes in tax laws, and the movement of liabilities established for uncertain tax positions as statutes of limitations expire or positions are otherwise effectively settled. There are proposed or pending tax law changes in the U.S., U.K. and Canada that, if enacted, may impact our effective tax rate.

        As of December 25, 2010, we had $84.1 million of uncertain tax benefits. Since December 25, 2010, uncertain tax benefits increased by $6.0 million. This addition is net of increases due to additional uncertain tax benefits and interest accrued for the current year and decreases primarily due to certain tax positions closing or being effectively settled, and payments made to tax authorities with regard to uncertain tax benefits during the second quarter of 2011. This results in a total uncertain tax benefit of $90.1 million as of June 25, 2011.

        We file income tax returns in most of the federal, state, and provincial jurisdictions in the U.S., U.K., and Canada. In the U.S., tax years through 2006 are closed, while exam years 2007 and 2008 have been effectively settled and only remain open pending finalization of an advanced pricing agreement. Tax years through fiscal year ended February 8, 2005 are closed or have been effectively settled through examination in Canada. Tax years through 2008 are closed or have been effectively settled through examination in the U.K.

10. Earnings per Share ("EPS")

        Basic net income per share was computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net income per share includes the additional dilutive effect of our potentially dilutive securities, which include stock options, SOSARs, RSUs, PUs, and DSUs, calculated using the treasury stock method.

        The changes in the gross carrying amounts of intangibles from December 25, 2010 to June 25, 2011 are due to the impact of foreign exchange rates, as a significant amount of intangibles are denominated in foreign currencies, and the first quarter acquisition of Sharp's Brewery Ltd. in the U.K. (approximately $20.4 million).

        Based on foreign exchange rates as of June 25, 2011, the following is our estimated amortization expense related to intangible assets for the next five years:

  $ 36.0  

2013

  $ 35.0  

2014

  $ 35.0  

2015

  $ 32.4  

        Amortization expense of intangible assets was $10.5 million and $20.3 million for the second quarter and first half of 2011, respectively, and $11.0 million and $22.0 million for the second quarter and first half of 2010, respectively.

        We are required to perform goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible asset impairment tests on at least an annual basis and more frequently in certain circumstances. We completed the required annual impairment testing during the third quarter of 2010 and determined that there were no impairments of goodwill or other indefinite-lived intangible assets. Regarding definite-lived intangibles, we continuously monitor the performance of the underlying asset for potential impairment. No impairment losses were included in the goodwill or intangible asset balances as of June 25, 2011 or December 25, 2010.

        Our total long-term borrowings as of June 25, 2011 and December 25, 2010 were composed of the following:

(1)
The original conversion price for each $1,000 aggregate principal amount of notes was $54.76 per share of our Class B common stock, which represented a 25% premium above the stock price on the day of issuance of the notes and corresponded to the initial conversion ratio of 18.263 shares per each $1,000 aggregate principal amount of notes. The conversion ratio and conversion price are subject to adjustments for certain events and provisions, as defined in the indenture. As of June 2011, our conversion price and ratio are $53.40 and 18.7249 shares, respectively. Currently, the convertible debt's if-converted value does not exceed the principal.

(2)
During the second quarters of 2011 and 2010, we incurred additional non-cash interest expense of $4.4 million and $4.2 million, respectively. For the first half of 2011 and 2010, the amounts were $8.7 million and $8.4 million, respectively. We also incurred interest expense related to the 2.5% convertible coupon rate of $3.6 million for both the second quarters of 2011 and 2010. For the first half of 2011 and 2010, the amount was $7.2 million for both periods. The combination of non-cash and cash interest resulted in an effective interest rate of 5.91% and 6.00% for the second quarters of 2011 and 2010, respectively. The effective interest rates for the first half of 2011 and 2010 were 5.92% and 6.00%, respectively. As of June 25, 2011 and December 25, 2010, paid in capital in the equity section of our balance sheet includes $103.9 million, ($64.2 million net of tax), representing the equity component of the convertible debt. Further, as of June 25, 2011 and December 25, 2010, $37.7 million and $46.3 million respectively of the unamortized debt discount and other balance relates to our $575 million convertible debt. We expect the unamortized discount to continue to amortize through 2013 resulting in non-cash interest expense of approximately $17 million to $18 million annually, thereby increasing the carrying value of the convertible debt to its $575 million face value at maturity in July 2013. The remaining $2.2 million as of June 25, 2011 and December 25, 2010, relates to unamortized debt premiums, discounts, and other on the additional debt balances.

        Our short-term borrowings at June 25, 2011 and December 25, 2010 were $5.5 million and $1.1 million, respectively.

        During the second quarter of 2011, we terminated our $750 million revolving multicurrency bank credit facility, which was set to expire in August 2011. Additionally, in connection with this termination, we entered into an agreement for a 4-year revolving multicurrency credit facility of $400 million, which provides a $100 million sub-facility available for the issuance of letters of credit. We incurred $2.2 million of issuance costs and up-front fees related to this agreement, which are amortized over the

term of the facility. There were no outstanding borrowings on the $400 million credit facility as of June 25, 2011.

        Under the terms of some of our debt facilities, we must comply with certain restrictions. These restrictions include restrictions on debt secured by certain types of mortgages, certain threshold percentages of secured consolidated net tangible assets, and restrictions on certain types of sale lease-back transactions. As of June 25, 2011, we were in compliance with all of these restrictions.

13. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

        Our risk management and derivative accounting policies are presented in Note 18 of the Notes and did not significantly change during the first half of 2011.

Derivative Fair Value Measurements

        We utilize market approaches to estimate the fair value of our derivative instruments by discounting anticipated future cash flows derived from the derivative's contractual terms and observable market interest, foreign exchange and commodity rates. The fair values of our derivatives also include credit risk adjustments to account for our counterparties' credit risk, as well as our own non-performance risk. As of June 25, 2011 and December 25, 2010 these adjustments resulted in deferred net gains in accumulated other comprehensive income ("AOCI") of $2.5 million and $2.7 million, respectively, as the fair value of our derivatives were in net liability positions at both period ends.

        The table below summarizes our derivative assets and liabilities that were measured at fair value as of June 25, 2011 and December 25, 2010.

The foreign exchange gain (loss) component of these cross currency swaps is offset by the corresponding gain (loss) on the hedged forecasted transactions in Other income (expense), net and Interest expense, net.

        During the period we recorded no significant income or expense due to ineffectiveness of these cash flow hedges. We expect net losses of approximately $7.2 million (pre-tax) recorded in AOCI at June 25, 2011 will be reclassified into earnings within the next 12 months. The maximum length of time over which forecasted transactions are hedged is 3 years, and such transactions relate to foreign exchange, interest rate and commodity exposures.

There were no contributions to the U.K. or U.S. plans in the first half of the year. Expected total fiscal year 2011 employer contributions to the Canada, U.S. and U.K. defined benefits plans are approximately $14 million. MillerCoors' contributions to its defined benefit pension plans are not included here, as MillerCoors is not consolidated in our financial statements.

15. Commitments and Contingencies

Kaiser

        As discussed in Note 8 "Discontinued Operations," we sold our entire equity interest in Kaiser during 2006 to FEMSA. The terms of the sale agreement require us to indemnify FEMSA for certain exposures related to tax, civil and labor contingencies arising prior to FEMSA's purchase of Kaiser. We provided an indemnity to FEMSA for losses Kaiser may incur with respect to tax claims associated with certain previously utilized purchased tax credits. We generally classify such purchased tax credits into two categories.

        During 2010, we reached a settlement agreement with FEMSA for the entirety of our indemnity obligations corresponding to the principal, penalties, interest and attorney's fees owed by Kaiser for the first category of purchased credits. This favorable settlement involved a cash payment of $96.0 million, and eliminated $284.5 million of maximum potential tax claims, of which $131.2 million of indemnity liabilities were accrued on our balance sheet at December 26, 2009. The payment was made in the second quarter of 2010. The maximum potential claims amount remaining for the second category of purchased tax credits (which we believe present less risk than the first category) was $275.9 million as of June 25, 2011. As of the end of the second quarter of 2011, our total estimate of the indemnity liability was $25.0 million, $10.0 million of which was classified as a current liability and $15.0 million of which was classified as non-current.

        Our estimates consider a number of scenarios for the ultimate resolution of these issues, the probabilities of which are influenced not only by legal developments in Brazil but also by management's intentions with regard to various alternatives that could present themselves leading to the ultimate resolution of these issues. The liabilities are impacted by changes in estimates regarding amounts that could be paid, the timing of such payments, adjustments to the probabilities assigned to various scenarios and foreign currency exchange rates.

27


Table of Contents

15. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)

        Additionally, we also provided indemnity related to all other tax, civil, and labor contingencies existing as of the date of sale. In this regard, however, FEMSA assumed their full share of all of these contingent liabilities that had been previously recorded and disclosed by us prior to the sale on January 13, 2006. However, we may have to provide indemnity to FEMSA if those contingencies settle at amounts greater than those amounts previously recorded or disclosed by us. We will be able to offset any indemnity exposures in these circumstances with amounts that settle favorably to amounts previously recorded. Our exposure related to these indemnity claims is capped at the amount of the sales price of the 68% equity interest of Kaiser, which was $68.0 million. As a result of these contract provisions, our estimates include not only probability-weighted potential cash outflows associated with indemnity provisions, but also probability-weighted cash inflows that could result from favorable settlements, which could occur through negotiation or settlement programs arising from the federal or any of the various state governments in Brazil. The recorded value of the tax, civil, and labor indemnity liability was $10.5 million as of June 25, 2011, which is classified as non-current.

        Future settlement procedures and related negotiation activities associated with these contingencies are largely outside of our control. The sale agreement requires annual cash settlements relating to the tax, civil, and labor indemnities. Indemnity obligations related to purchased tax credits must be settled upon notification of FEMSA's settlement. Due to the uncertainty involved with the ultimate outcome and timing of these contingencies, significant adjustments to the carrying values of the indemnity obligations have been recorded to date, and additional future adjustments may be required. These liabilities are denominated in Brazilian Reals and are therefore, subject to foreign exchange gains or losses, which are recognized in the discontinued operations section of the statement of operations.

        The table below provides a summary of reserves associated with the Kaiser indemnity obligations from December 25, 2010, through June 25, 2011:

Guarantees

        We guarantee indebtedness and other obligations to banks and other third parties for some of its equity method investments and consolidated subsidiaries, primarily BRI. We guaranteed our respective share of the indebtedness of BRI related to its CAD $200 million debt which was settled at maturity on June 15, 2011 at which time we were released from our guarantee. The funding from this settlement was from a new short-term loan maturing in June 2012 for which we became a guarantor and a separate guarantee liability was recorded. Due to the structure of the new BRI debt agreement and related guarantees, our liability was reduced which resulted in a corresponding gain in Special items, net of $2.0 million in the second quarter of 2011. Other liabilities in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets include $100.4 million as of June 25, 2011, of which $94.1 million is current and $6.3 million is non-current; and $100.4 million as of December 25, 2010, of which $94.2 million is current and $6.2 million is non-current, related to such guarantees.

Litigation and Other Disputes

        In 1999, Molson entered into an agreement for the distribution of Molson products in Brazil. In 2000, before commencing that business, Molson terminated the distribution agreement and paid the distributor $150,000 in settlement. The distributor then sued Molson to set aside the settlement and to seek additional compensation. The Appellate Court of the State of Rio de Janeiro ("Appellate Court")

28


Table of Contents

15. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)


set aside the settlement agreement and determined that Molson was liable to the distributor, with the amount of damages to be determined through subsequent proceedings. An appeal of the liability decision is currently pending before the Brazilian Superior Court of Justice, which allowed Molson's appeal during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009 and agreed to hear the merits of Molson's appeal. With respect to damages, the case was remanded to a Rio de Janeiro trial court to determine the amount of damages. The trial court retained an expert who provided a report adopting the position of the distributor and recommended damages based on a business plan that was never implemented. Molson challenged the irregularity of the expert process, the impartiality of the expert, as well as the report's specific recommendation. The trial court denied Molson's challenges. Molson filed an appeal before the Appellate Court regarding these procedural irregularities, which was denied during the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2009. Following the trial court's procedural ruling during the third quarter of 2009, that court handed down a decision in the distributor's favor granting the full amount of the lost anticipated profits alleged by the distributor, approximately $42 million, plus attorney's fees and interest to accrue from the termination of the distribution agreement. Molson appealed the judgment to the Appellate Court. During the fourth quarter of 2009, the Appellate Court directed the court-retained expert to explain the basis for his damages calculation. During the first quarter of 2010, the Appellate Court granted Molson's appeal and vacated the $42 million judgment. The Appellate Court remanded the proceeding to the trial court and ordered that court to select a different expert. The Appellate Court furthermore directed the trial court to use specific criteria in setting damages, the effect of which should be to substantially reduce the award. Molson sought clarification as to the precise criteria to be used. In late April 2010, the Appellate Court denied Molson's motion for clarification, but limited the accrual of interest in this matter. In mid October 2010, the Appellate Court denied the distributor's motion to set aside the vacation of the $42 million judgment. In July 2011, the trial court selected a new expert who is beginning to formulate a new calculation of damages. We will continue to defend this case vigorously, and believe that a material adverse result is not probable.

        During the second quarter of 2011, a competitor in our Canadian market filed a lawsuit in a trial court in Ontario, Canada, challenging a sponsorship agreement between our Canadian and U.S. businesses and the National Hockey League ("NHL") (Labatt Brewing Co. Ltd. et al. v.NHL Enterprises Canada Ltd., et al., Sup. Ct. of Justice—Ontario, CV-11-9122-00CL). Following an expedited trial, the court ruled against the Company and the NHL, holding that there was a binding agreement between Labatt and the NHL. The Court of Appeal of Ontario reversed that judgment on July 12, 2011 (C53817 & C53818). Labatt has since re-initiated a lawsuit in the Ontario trial court. The Company will vigorously defend that lawsuit, and has indemnity from the NHL for any damages and fees awarded in the event of an adverse judgment. Such a judgment could, however, eliminate the benefits of an NHL sponsorship described in the "Outlook for 2011" section of our Form 10-Q for the period ended March 26, 2011.

        We are involved in other disputes and legal actions arising in the ordinary course of our business. While it is not feasible to predict or determine the outcome of these proceedings, in our opinion, based on a review with legal counsel, none of these disputes and legal actions is expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. However, litigation is subject to inherent uncertainties and an adverse result in these or other matters may arise from time to time that may harm our business.

Environmental

        When we determine it is probable that a liability for environmental matters or other legal actions exists and the amount of the loss is reasonably estimable, an estimate of the future costs are recorded as a liability in the financial statements. Costs that extend the life, increase the capacity or improve the safety or efficiency of Company-owned assets or are incurred to mitigate or prevent future environmental contamination may be capitalized. Other environmental costs are expensed when incurred.

15. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)

        From time to time, we have been notified that we are or may be a potentially responsible party ("PRP") under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act or similar state laws for the cleanup of sites where hazardous substances have allegedly been released into the environment. We cannot predict with certainty the total costs of cleanup, our share of the total cost, the extent to which contributions will be available from other parties, the amount of time necessary to complete the cleanups or insurance coverage.

Lowry

        We are one of a number of entities named by the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") as a PRP at the Lowry Superfund site. This landfill is owned by the City and County of Denver ("Denver") and is managed by Waste Management of Colorado, Inc. ("Waste Management"). In 1990, we recorded a pretax charge of $30 million, a portion of which was put into a trust in 1993 as part of a settlement with Denver and Waste Management regarding the then-outstanding litigation. Our settlement was based on an assumed remediation cost of $120 million (in 1992 adjusted dollars). We are obligated to pay a portion of future costs, if any, in excess of that amount.

        Waste Management provides us with updated annual cost estimates through 2032. We review these cost estimates in the assessment of our accrual related to this issue. We use certain assumptions that differ from Waste Management's estimates to assess our expected liability. Our expected liability (based on the $120 million threshold being met) is based on our best estimates available.

        The assumptions used are as follows:

        Based on these assumptions, the present value and gross amount of the costs at June 25, 2011, are approximately $4.3 million and $5.3 million, respectively. Accordingly, we believe that the existing liability is adequate as of June 25, 2011. We did not assume any future recoveries from insurance companies in the estimate of our liability, and none are expected.

        Considering the estimates extend through the year 2032 and the related uncertainties at the site, including what additional remedial actions may be required by the EPA, new technologies and what costs are included in the determination of when the $120 million threshold is reached the estimate of our liability may change as further facts develop. We cannot predict the amount of any such change, but additional accruals in the future are possible.

Other

        In October 2006 we were notified by the EPA that we are a PRP, along with approximately 60 other parties, at the Cooper Drum site in southern California. Certain former non-beer business operations, which were discontinued and sold in the mid-1990s, were involved at this site. We responded to the EPA with information regarding our past involvement with the site. We have accrued $0.2 million, which represents our estimable loss at this time. Potential losses associated with the Cooper Drum site could increase as remediation planning progresses.

        During the third quarter of 2008 we were notified by the EPA that we are a PRP, along with others, at the East Rutherford and Berry's Creek sites in New Jersey. Certain former non-beer business operations, which were discontinued and sold in the mid-1990s, were involved at this site. We have accrued $4.1 million, which represents our estimable loss at this time. Potential losses associated with the Berry's Creek site could increase as remediation planning progresses.

        While we cannot predict the eventual aggregate cost for environmental and related matters in which we are currently involved, we believe that any payments, if required, for these matters would be made over a period of time in amounts that would not be material in any one year to our operating results, cash flows or our financial or competitive position. We believe adequate reserves have been provided for losses that are probable and estimable.

        We are aware of groundwater contamination at some of our properties in Colorado resulting from historical, ongoing, or nearby activities.

        There may also be other contamination of which we are currently unaware. From time to time, we have been notified that we are or may be a PRP under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act or similar state laws for the cleanup of sites where hazardous substances have allegedly been released into the environment. We cannot predict with certainty the total costs of cleanup, our share of the total cost, the extent to which contributions will be available from other parties, the amount of time necessary to complete the cleanups or insurance coverage.

17. Supplemental Guarantor Information (Continued)

        On June 15, 2007, MCBC issued $575 million of 2.5% Convertible Senior Notes due July 30, 2013 in a registered offering (see Note 12, "Debt"). The convertible notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by CBC, Molson Coors International, LP ("MCI LP"), Molson Coors Capital Finance ULC ("MC Capital Finance") and certain U.S. and Canadian subsidiaries of MCBC, including Molson Canada 2005 ("Subsidiary Guarantors").

        On May 7, 2002, CBC completed a public offering of $850 million principal amount of 6.375% Senior notes due 2012. As of June 25, 2011, $44.6 million remain outstanding and are guaranteed on a senior and unsecured basis by MCBC, MCI LP, MC Capital Finance, and the Subsidiary Guarantors. The guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several.

        On September 22, 2005, MCI LP and MC Capital Finance completed a public offering of $1.1 billion principal amount of Senior notes composed of $300 million 4.85% notes due 2010 and CAD 900 million 5.00% notes due 2015. During the third quarter of 2010, the $300 million 4.85% notes were repaid in full. Subsequently on October 6, 2010, MCI LP completed a private placement in Canada of CAD 500 million 3.95% fixed rate Series A Notes due 2017. Although MC Capital Finance was not a co-issuer on the 2010 notes, it continues to be presented with MCI LP as MC Capital Finance is an inactive entity with no activity or any remaining significant assets or liabilities which would require separate presentation. Both the remaining CAD 900 million 2005 notes and the 2010 Series A Notes are guaranteed on a senior and unsecured basis by MCBC, CBC, and Subsidiary Guarantors, and for the 2010 Series A Notes, MC Capital Finance. The guarantees are full and unconditional and joint and several. Funds necessary to meet the debt service obligations of MCI LP and MC Capital Finance are provided in large part by distributions or advances from MCBC's other subsidiaries. Under certain circumstances, contractual and legal restrictions, as well as our financial condition and operating requirements, could limit the ability of MCI LP and MC Capital Finance to obtain cash for the purpose of meeting its debt service obligation, including the payment of principal and interest on the notes.

        On December 25, 2010, CBC transferred its equity method investment in MillerCoors to MC Holding Company LLC, a newly created wholly-owned subsidiary of MCBC and a guarantor of the notes as well as the 2010 senior notes. As a result of the transfer, the investment in MillerCoors is presented in the column "Subsidiary Guarantors" at December 25, 2010 and all results of operations and cash flows related to the investment in MillerCoors subsequent to December 25, 2010 are presented in that column. The transfer of the investment between the 2002 Issuer and Subsidiary Guarantor categories does not negatively affect the holders of the notes or the holders of the 2010 senior notes as both the prior holder of the MillerCoors investment, CBC, and the current holder, MC Holding Company LLC, are joint and severally liable under the notes and the 2010 senior notes by virtue of their status as issuer or guarantor.

        The following information sets forth the Condensed Consolidating Statements of Operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2011 and June 26, 2010, Condensed Consolidating Balance Sheets as of June 25, 2011 and December 25, 2010, and Condensed Consolidating Statements of Cash Flows for the twenty-six weeks ended June 25, 2011 and June 26, 2010. Investments in subsidiaries are accounted for on the equity method; accordingly, entries necessary to consolidate the Parent Guarantor, each of the issuers and all of our guarantor and non-guarantor subsidiaries are reflected in the eliminations column. In the opinion of management, separate complete financial statements of MCBC, CBC, MCI LP, MC Capital Finance, and the Subsidiary Guarantors would not provide additional material information that would be useful in assessing their financial composition.
