ITEM 1. IDENTITY OF ISSUER (a) The name of the issuer is The Estee Lauder Companies Inc. (the "Issuer"). (b) The address of the Issuer's principal executive office is 767 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10153. ITEM 2. IDENTITY OF PERSON FILING (a) - (c) This report is being filed by The Descendants of Ronald S. Lauder 1966 Trust with a business address of Suite 4200, 767 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10153 (the "Reporting Person"). The Reporting Person was organized in the State of New York. (d) - (e) This report covers the Issuer's Class A Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"). The CUSIP number of the Class A Common Stock is 518439 10 4. ITEM 3. Not Applicable. ITEM 4. OWNERSHIP (a) As of December 31, 1997, the Reporting Person beneficially owned 3,182 shares of Class A Common Stock as follows: 1,591 shares of Class A Common Stock and 1,591 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $.01 per share, of the Issuer (the "Class B Common Stock") held directly by the Reporting Person. (b) Each share of Class B Common Stock is convertible at the option of the holder into one share of Class A Common Stock and is automatically converted into one share of Class A Common Stock upon transfer to a person who is not a Permitted Transferee, as that term is defined in the Issuer's Certificate of Incorporation. Assuming conversion of all such shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Person, the Reporting Person would beneficially own 3,182 shares of Class A Common Stock, which would constitute less than 0.1% of the number of shares of Class A Common Stock outstanding. Each share of Class A Common Stock entitles the holder to one vote on each matter submitted to a vote of the Issuer's stockholders and each share of Class B Common Stock entitles the holder to ten votes on each such matter, including the election of directors of the Issuer. Assuming no conversion of any of the outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock, the 1,591 shares of Class A Common Stock and the 1,591 shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned by the Reporting Person constitute less than 0.1% of the aggregate voting power of the Issuer. Page 3 of 7 Pages (c) Ronald S. Lauder, as the sole trustee of the Reporting Person, has sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the 1,591 shares of Class A Common Stock and the 1,591 shares of Class B Common Stock owned by the Reporting Person. ITEM 5. OWNERSHIP OF FIVE PERCENT OR LESS OF A CLASS Not Applicable. ITEM 6. OWNERSHIP OF MORE THAN FIVE PERCENT ON BEHALF OF ANOTHER PERSON Ronald S. Lauder, as the sole trustee of the Reporting Person, and Aerin Lauder and Jane Lauder, as beneficiaries of the Reporting Person, have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of the 1,591 shares of Class A Common Stock and the 1,591 shares of Class B Common Stock owned by the Reporting Person. ITEM 7. IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF THE SUBSIDIARY WHICH ACQUIRED THE SECURITY BEING REPORTED ON BY THE PARENT HOLDING COMPANY Not Applicable. ITEM 8. IDENTIFICATION AND CLASSIFICATION OF MEMBERS OF THE GROUP The Reporting Person is a party to a Stockholders' Agreement (the "Stockholders' Agreement"), dated November 22, 1995, as amended, among the parties listed on Exhibit A attached hereto. The stockholders who are parties to the Stockholders' Agreement have agreed to vote in favor of the election of Leonard A. Lauder and Ronald S. Lauder and one designee of each as directors of the Issuer. The Stockholders' Agreement also contains certain limitations on the transfer of shares of Class A Common Stock. Each stockholder who is a party to the Stockholders' Agreement has agreed to grant to the other parties a right of first offer to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock of the stockholder in the event the stockholder intends to sell to a person (or group of persons) who is not a Lauder Family Member, as defined therein, except in certain circumstances, such as sales in a widely distributed underwritten public offering or sales made in compliance with Rule 144.
