DIVIDEND ELECTION FORM
COTY INC.
On May 8, 2019, the board of directors of Coty Inc. (“COTY”) declared a quarterly dividend on COTY’s shares of Class A Common Stock at $0.125 per share payable on June 28, 2019. COTY’s Stock Dividend Reinvestment Program offers shareholders the option to reinvest 50% of their dividend in additional shares of COTY’s Class A Common Stock. By making an election, shareholders will be able to (1) make a100% Cash Election– to receive their entire dividend in cash, (2) make aCurrent Quarter Election— to receive 50% of the current dividend in cash and reinvest 50% of their current dividend in newly issued shares of COTY’s Class A Common Stock, or, in the case of registered holders only, (3) make aContinuing Election— to receive 50% of their current and future dividends in cash and reinvest 50% of their current and future dividends in newly issued shares of COTY’s Class A Common Stock, until a different election is made. Selecting either the 100% Cash Election or the Current Quarter Election will automatically revoke any previously made Continuing Election. Shareholders who do not elect to participate in the Stock Dividend Reinvestment Program will receive their dividend entirely in cash. The number of shares of Class A Common Stock that you will receive if you reinvest will be determined by dividing 50% of your dividend by $12.6747, which is the volume-weighted average share price of our Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange over a period of five trading days ending immediately prior to the dividend record date of June 6, 2019. No fractional shares will be issued and the cash component of the dividend will be increased by the amount of any fractional shares. The dividend will be considered a taxable dividend.
To be effective, Computershare must receive your election by no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on June 20, 2019 (“Election Deadline”).Registered holders may change their election by delivering a new, properly completed election form bearing a later date than your previously submitted election form to the election agent by the Election Deadline. This election form should be completed only by holders of record as of June 6, 2019. If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or intermediary, please promptly inform such bank, broker or intermediary of the election (or any revocation of an election) they should make on your behalf, in accordance with the instructions given by that bank, broker or intermediary.
Please check only one of the three boxes to indicate your election, as described above and in the accompanying materials. If you fail to timely return a properly completed election form in the manner specified above or you return an election form with no boxes checked or multiple boxes checked, you will be treated as having made a 100% Cash Election. If you have previously made a “Continuing Election” and do not return a properly completed election form or return an election form with no boxes checked or multiple boxes checked, your “Continuing Election” will remain in effect. All shares of COTY Class A Common Stock issued under the Stock Dividend Reinvestment Program will be issued in book-entry form.
For shareholders subject to withholding tax who elect to reinvest 50% of their dividends in Class A Common Stock, we will deduct 50% of the total amount of the withholding taxes owed for the entire June 28, 2019 dividend from the cash portion of your dividend and the remaining 50% of the withholding taxes from the portion of your dividend that would otherwise be reinvested in our Class A Common Stock as described above.
The Company may change the manner in which withholding taxes are deducted for future dividends, and you will be notified of any such change either in the Quarterly Dividend Election Form or by your bank, broker or nominee for the applicable election period.
