The Senior Secured Notes are senior secured obligations of Coty and are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by each of Coty’s wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantees Coty’s obligations under its existing senior secured credit facilities and are secured by first priority liens on the same collateral that secures Coty’s obligations under its existing senior secured credit facilities, as described below. The Senior Secured Notes and the guarantees are equal in right of payment with all of Coty’s and the guarantors’ respective existing and future senior indebtedness and are pari passu with all of Coty’s and the guarantors’ respective existing and future indebtedness that is secured by a first priority lien on the collateral, including the existing senior secured credit facilities, to the extent of the value of such collateral. Optional Redemption Applicable Premium The indentures governing the Senior Secured Notes specify the Applicable Premium (as defined in the respective indentures) to be paid upon early redemption of some or all of the 2026 Euro Senior Secured Notes or 2026 Dollar Senior Secured Notes. The Applicable Premium related to the 2026 Euro Senior Secured Notes or 2026 Dollar Senior Secured Notes on any redemption date and as calculated by the Company is the greater of: (1) 1.0% of the then outstanding principal amount of the respective 2026 Euro Senior Secured Notes or 2026 Dollar Senior Secured Notes; and (2) the excess, if any, of (a) the present value at such redemption date of (i) the redemption price of such 2026 Euro Senior Secured Notes or 2026 Dollar Senior Secured Notes that would apply if such 2026 Euro Senior Secured Notes or 2026 Dollar Senior Secured Notes were redeemed on April 15, 2023 (such redemption price is expressed as a percentage of the principal amount being set forth in the table appearing in the Redemption Pricing section below), plus (ii) all remaining scheduled payments of interest due on the 2026 Euro Senior Secured Notes or 2026 Dollar Senior Secured Notes to and including April 15, 2023 (excluding accrued but unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date), with respect to each of subclause (i) and (ii), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate in the case of the 2026 Dollar Senior Secured Notes or Bund Rate in the case of the 2026 Euro Senior Secured Notes (both Treasury Rate and Bund Rate as defined in the respective indentures) as of such redemption date plus 50 basis points; over (b) the principal amount of the respective 2026 Dollar Notes, 2023 Euro Notes or 2026 Euro Notes. Redemption Pricing At any time and from time to time prior to April 15, 2023, the Company may redeem some or all of the 2026 Dollar Senior Secured Notes and 2026 Euro Senior Secured Notes at redemption prices equal to 100% of the respective principal amounts being redeemed plus the Applicable Premium, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption dates.

Initial borrowings under the 2018 Coty Term B Facility were issued at a 0.250% discount. The 2018 Coty Credit Agreement provides that with respect to the 2018 Coty Revolving Credit Facility, up to $150.0 is available for letters of credit and up to $150.0 is available for swing line loans. The 2018 Coty Credit Agreement also permits, subject to certain terms and conditions, the incurrence of incremental facilities thereunder in an aggregate amount of (i) $1,700.0 plus (ii) an unlimited amount if the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio (as defined in the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement), at the time of incurrence of such incremental facilities and after giving effect thereto on a pro forma basis, is less than or equal to 3.00 to 1.00. The obligations of the Company under the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the material wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company organized in the U.S., subject to certain exceptions (the “Guarantors”) and the obligations of the Company and the Guarantors under the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement are secured by a perfected first priority lien (subject to permitted liens) on substantially all of the assets of the Company and the Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. The Dutch Borrower does not guarantee the obligations of the Company under the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement or grant any liens on its assets to secure any obligations under the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement. On June 27, 2019, the Company entered into an amendment (“2019 Amendment”) to the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement. The 2019 Amendment modified the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement by amending the financial covenants to (i) delay until March 31, 2022 the total net leverage ratio step down from 5.25 to 5.0 (as further described in the Covenants section below), (ii) extend the applicable window for certain cost savings add-backs in the calculation of Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) for purpose of determining the total net leverage ratio, and (iii) amend the determination of the exchange rate to be used for purposes of calculating “Total Indebtedness” (as defined in the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement) for purposes of the total net leverage ratio, and decreasing the total commitments under the revolving credit facility by $500.0 to $2,750.0. On April 29, 2020, the Company amended its existing credit agreement. The amendment (i) provided a net debt to EBITDA financial covenant "holiday" through March 31, 2021; (ii) established a minimum liquidity covenant through March 31, 2021 of $350.0, which increased to $500.0 for the prepayment event noted below; and (iii) effectively placed certain limitations on the ability to make certain investments and restricted payments (including limiting the Company's ability to pay dividends in cash through March 31, 2021) and on incurring additional secured indebtedness. On November 30, 2020, the Company completed the strategic transaction with KKR for the sale of a majority stake in the Wella Business. As part of the transaction, Coty received initial cash proceeds of $2,451.7 for the sale of its 60% stake in Wella and its pro rata share of Wella's return of capital distribution of $448.0, and retained a 40% stake in Wella. In accordance with the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement, as amended, the Company utilized $2,015.5 of the net proceeds to pay down its 2018 Coty Term A and B Facilities on a pro rata basis and reserved a maximum of $500.0 for reinvestment in the business, as defined in the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement, as amended, ("the Reinvestment Balance"). If the Reinvestment Balance is not reinvested within twelve months, the Company is required to use the remainder to pay down its 2018 Coty Term A and B Facilities on a pro rata basis by December 2021. As a result of the prepayments, the outstanding balances of 2018 Coty Term A and B Facilities were reduced by $1,135.7 and $879.8, respectively. Additionally, in accordance with the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement, as amended, as a result of these prepayments, the minimum liquidity covenant increased from $350.0 to $500.0. See above for the third amendment to the 2018 Coty Credit Agreement entered into on September 30, 2021.
