        <footnote id="F1">Under the Board of Directors of Avon Products, Inc. Deferred Compenstion Plan (the &quot;Plan&quot;) directors may defer receipt of quarterly fees into a cash account or an Avon stock unit account.  All amounts deferred are paid in cash upon termination of services as a director.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">Units correspond 1-for-1 with common stock.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">Pursuant to the Plan, the number of stock units credited quarterly is determined by dividing deferred quarterly fees by the average price of Avon stock during the last 10 trading days of such quarter.</footnote>
