1.The employment between the Company and the Executive will terminate by mutual consent with effect from 30 June 2021 (the Termination Date).

2.With effect from the signing date of this agreement until the Termination Date the Executive will provide services to the Company and the Group described in Annex 2 and such other services as may be agreed between the Company and the Executive (the Services).

The Parties agree that the Executive is not required to accept a request by the Company or the Group to lead major carve-out or transformation projects and, therefore, a refusal by the Executive to that effect will not cause the Executive to act in violation of his obligations under the Employment Agreement (as amended by this agreement) or the RCA.

9. By signing this agreement, the Executive stands down or resigns, as the case may be, with immediate effect from all other employment and/or all corporate positions he holds with the Company and/or the Group (including his position as member of the Board of Coty Inc.), such as supervisory and management board positions, and all other positions that the Executive holds in his capacity as representative of the Company or the Group, like memberships to branch organisations, without cancelling the membership of the relevant members of the Company or the Group to those organisations. The Executive undertakes to sign such documentation and to take such actions as may be required to give effect to the foregoing.

10. Upon termination of the Executive’s position on the Board of Coty Inc, in accordance with clause 9 hereof, of the 7,808 Restricted Stock Units (RSUs) granted to the Executive on 15 November 2019, 7,188 RSUs will vest in accordance with the terms of the Plan (based on an Applicable Fraction (as defined in the relevant plan) of 336/365) and the remaining RSUs will be immediately forfeited and cancelled.

12. Ultimately on the Termination Date, and provided that the Executive has complied and will continue to comply with all of the obligations following from this agreement and the Employment Agreement, the Company will pay to the Executive a severance payment equal to one times the annual base salary (including holiday allowance) amounting to US$ 1,2000,000 gross (the Severance Payment).

arising from the use of company property and contributions to private insurance and pension arrangements. The Severance Payment will be paid to the Executive in the Netherlands, less taxes and social security premiums. In case of violation by the Executive of the non-disparagement obligations of clause 16 hereof, the confidentiality obligations following from this agreement and/or the obligations under the RCA after payment of the Severance Payment, the Executive will at the Company’ first request, be required to pay an amount equal to the Severance Payment to the Company.

13. Within one month after the termination of the Executive’s employment with the Company, the Company will effect a normal final payment (eindafrekening), subject to the provisions of this agreement. The Executive will be deemed to have taken up all accrued outstanding holidays in the period up to the Termination Date.

The Executive herewith confirms that he will not retain copies of any such property or other materials. The Executive confirms that he will in the period up to the Termination Date use any such company property in line with the rules and procedures applicable within the Company and/or the Group in that respect.

16. The Executive confirms that he will not disclose, divulge, or communicate any negative or damaging information about the Company and/or the Group, the controlling shareholders and/or their ultimate beneficial owners.

17. The Executive will keep strictly secret and confidential the existence and contents of the termination paragraphs of this agreement, as well as any other information relating to the settlement or the termination of the Employment Agreement, unless vis-à-vis the Executive’s civil partner or legal advisor or in case this would be required for the proper implementation of this agreement or as a result of a legal obligation to disclose such information or unless with prior written consent of the Company and where it concerns the official agreed communication on the Executive’s departure.

18. Any confidentiality, intellectual property, non-compete, non-solicitation and non- poaching undertakings as agreed upon between the Executive and the Company and/or the Group in the Employment Agreement and /or the RCA, will remain in full force after the Termination Date in accordance with their terms and including the penalties agreed in case of violation.

19. The Executive confirms that he will change any social media profiles (LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter and any other relevant media being applicable) ultimately at the Termination Date, so that is unambiguously clear that the Executive is no longer employed by the Company or the Group.

20. Subject to the provisions of this agreement, the Executive hereby grants the Company and/or the Group full and final discharge as regards any rights or claims he may have towards them following from his employment and/or any other positions he holds with the Company and/or the Group, or the termination thereof.

21. If the Executive becomes incapacitated for work before the Termination Date, this does not change the arrangements made in this agreement. If the Executive becomes ill prior to the Termination Date or within four weeks after the Termination Date, the Executive shall immediately report this to the Company in writing and provide his contact details. The Executive will be obliged to (i) report to the company doctor upon first request, (ii) at all times provide his full cooperation to applicable reintegration obligations, and (iii) provide the Company with all information which it needs to submit to the Executive Insurance Agency (UWV) or other relevant authorities in this respect.
