9. Section 409A.

(a) In General. All payments and benefits under this Agreement are intended either to be exempt from, or to comply with, the requirements of Section 409A, and this Agreement shall be interpreted and administered in a manner consistent with such intent.

(b) Separation from Service. References in this Agreement to “termination of employment” and similar terms shall mean a “separation from service” as determined under Section 409A.

(c) Payments Contingent on General Release. If the timing of your execution of a General Release could (but for this Section 9) affect whether an amount that is subject to Section 409A is paid in the taxable year of termination or is instead paid in the next succeeding year (the “Second Year”), then payment of such amount shall be made no earlier than January 1 of the Second Year.

(d) Six-Month Delay. If you are a “specified employee” as defined in Section 409A at the time of your termination of employment, no amount that is subject to Section 409A and that becomes payable by reason of your termination of employment shall be paid before the expiration of the 6-month period beginning on your termination of employment, or, if earlier, your death.

(e) Reimbursement of Expenses or In-Kind Benefits. Reimbursements of expenses and in-kind benefits shall be treated as follows: (i) the amount of such expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided in any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided in any other taxable year, except as otherwise allowed by Section 409A; (ii) any reimbursement shall be made on or before the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expenses to be reimbursed were incurred; and (iii) no right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits may be liquidated or exchanged for another benefit.

(f) Amendment. The Company may, without your consent, amend any provision of this Agreement to the extent that, in the reasonable judgment of the Company, such amendment is necessary or advisable to avoid the imposition on you of any tax, interest or penalties pursuant to Section 409A. Any such amendment shall maintain, at a minimum, the original economic benefit to you of the applicable provision.

I hereby acknowledge and agree that:

Coty Inc. (the “Company”) and I entered into an Agreement on July __, 2014 (the“Agreement”) concerning my separation from service with the Company. A blank copy of this Release Certificate (the “Certificate”) was attached to the Agreement when it was given to me for review.

I was encouraged to discuss the Agreement, including this Certificate, with my attorney before executing either document, and have done so.

In consideration of the agreements of the Company set forth in the Agreement I hereby agree that this Certificate will be part of the Agreement, and that the general release set forth in paragraph 15 of the Agreement is to be construed and applied as if I had signed it on the day I sign this Certificate. This Certificate extends the general release set forth in paragraph 15 of the Agreement through the date on which I sign this Certificate.

I acknowledge that I have read this Certificate and that I understand and voluntarily accept its terms.

THIS IS A LEGALLY ENFORCEABLE DOCUMENT.
