Summary
Soft Drink Energy Conservation and Interbrand Competition Act - Declares that exclusive territorial arrangements made as a part of a licensing agreement for the manufacture, distribution, or sale of a trademarked soft drink product are lawful under the Federal Trade Commission Act and the antitrust laws provided such product is in substantial and effective competition with other products of the same general class and the elimination of the territorial provisions in such agreement would adversely affect the quality of the environment, significantly increase energy consumption, cause inflation in the cost of soft drink products, or lead to concentration of economic power in the soft drink industry. Makes this Act applicable to any proceeding involving the lawfulness of any territorial provision which is pending on or commenced after the date of enactment.
