Unless expressly vested as provided above, all options that have been granted to Executive under the Coty Long Term Incentive Plan shall be forfeited effective as of July 31, 2012 without further action by either party.

Unless expressly vested as provided above, all options that have been granted to Executive under the Coty Executive Ownership Plan shall be forfeited effective as of July 31, 2012 without further action by either party.

(c) Executive’s vested options under the various Coty equity plans, which would otherwise be subject to a ninety day exercise period, will be exercisable until the end of the later of the following two periods: (i) the period ending July 31, 2014, or (ii) the period ending 90 days after the termination of Executive’s service as a Non-Executive Director of the Coty Board; provided, however, for purposes of clarity, that in no event may any vested options be exercisable beyond the expiration date of such options.

(d) The following shares of Restricted Stock (RS) and Restricted Stock Units (RSU) purchased by Executive pursuant to the terms of the Coty Executive Ownership Plan which otherwise would be unvested upon the termination of Executive’s employment, will fully vest as of July 31, 2012 as follows:

(f) Executive’s vested Restricted Shares (RS) and Restricted Stock Units (RSU) as well as Executive’s common stock under the various Coty equity plans, which in each case would otherwise be subject to a ninety day sell-back period, will be sellable back to the Company (and the Company may not require that solely Executive sell the foregoing to the Company (for purposes of clarity, if all other director and employee stockholders are required to sell back shares to Coty during such period, Executive shall also be subject to a proportionate sell-back requirement)) until the end of the later of the following two periods: (i) the period ending July 31, 2014, or (ii) the period ending 90 days after the termination of Executive’s service as a Non-Executive Director of the Coty Board, provided in each case that the Company is not executing an initial public offering (IPO) during such period. In the event the Company initiates an IPO during the relevant period, any right or obligation to sell to the Company

Executive shall be entitled to select (and change, to the extent permitted under any applicable law) a beneficiary or beneficiaries to receive any compensation or benefit payable hereunder following Executive’s death by giving Coty written notice thereof.

take such other action as may be necessary to satisfy all of Coty’s obligations for the payment of such withholding taxes.

19. Specific Performance and other Remedies. Executive also acknowledges and agrees that Coty has no adequate remedy at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of paragraphs 10, 11, 12, 13 or 14 and, in recognition of this fact, Executive agrees that, in the event of such a breach or threatened breach, in addition to any remedies at law, Coty, without posting any bond and without notice to the Executive, shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as prohibiting the Company from pursing any other remedies at law or in equity that it may have or any other rights that it may have under any other agreement.

20. Entire Agreement. Executive acknowledges that this Agreement and, except as expressly set forth herein, the LTIP and any award agreements entered into under the LTIP, the EOP and any awards under the EOP, the Performance Plan, the provisions of any employee plan or arrangement maintained from time to time by the Company in which the Executive participated during the term of his employment, and the Indemnification Agreement contain the entire agreement between Executive and Coty concerning Executive’s employment, his termination, and his post-termination rights and benefits and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous oral and written agreements, understandings and representations, including any oral promises made by anyone at Coty. There are no restrictions, agreements, promises, warranties, covenants or undertakings between the parties with respect to the subject matter herein other than those expressly set forth herein and therein. This Agreement may not be modified or changed except by written instrument executed by both parties.

21. No Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver of such party’s rights or deprive such party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. No waiver by either party of any breach by the other party of any condition or provision contained in this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of a similar or dissimilar condition or provision at the same or any prior or subsequent time. Any waiver must be in writing and signed by Executive and Coty.

22. Arbitration. The parties agree that all disputes arising under or in connection with this Agreement, and any and all claims by the Executive relating to his employment with Coty, will be submitted to arbitration in New York, New York to the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the AAA’s Employment Arbitration Rules.

23. Choice of Law; Severability. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to conflict of law principles. It is expressly understood and agreed that although Executive and Coty consider the restrictions contained in paragraphs 12 and 13 to be reasonable, if a final determination is made by an arbitrator that the time or territory restriction set forth therein or any other restriction contained therein is an unenforceable restriction against Executive, such

provision shall not be rendered void but shall be deemed amended to apply to such maximum time and territory, if applicable, or otherwise to such maximum extent as such court may judicially determine or indicate to be enforceable. Alternatively, if the arbitrator finds that any restriction contained in either paragraph 12 or paragraph 13 is unenforceable, and such restriction cannot be amended so as to make it enforceable, such finding shall not affect the enforceability of any of the other restrictions contained therein. In the event that any one or more of the other provisions of this Agreement shall be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall not be affected thereby; provided, however, that if the General Release granted by Executive in paragraph 8 above is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, Executive will execute a release that is enforceable and in a form agreeable to Coty.

24. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts (including via facsimile or the electronic exchange of portable document format PDF copies), each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same instrument.

25. Communications.
