        <footnote id="F1">These shares (the &quot;Shares&quot;) of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Coty Inc. (the &quot;Company&quot;) are held and beneficially owned by JAB Beauty B.V., a direct or indirect subsidiary of each Reporting Person herein. As such, each Reporting Person herein may be deemed a beneficial owner of Shares held by JAB Beauty B.V. Each such Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares, except to the extent of its pecuniary interests therein.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">On August 29, 2025, the Long Swap (as defined below) with Credit Agricole Corporate and Investment Bank expired and terminated by cash-settlement by its terms with respect to a notional amount of 5,000,000 Shares.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F3">JAB Holdings B.V. is party to long cash-settled total return equity swaps (each, a &quot;Long Swap&quot;) with Banco Santander, S.A., BNP Paribas and Societe Generale (the &quot;Banks&quot;), providing for the establishment of long exposure with respect to a notional amount of Shares (the &quot;Subject Shares&quot;). The Long Swaps (but not the Subject Shares referenced thereby) are owned by JAB Holdings B.V., a direct or indirect subsidiary of each other Reporting Person herein. The Long Swaps do not give JAB Holdings B.V. direct or indirect voting, investment or dispositive control over any securities of the Company or require the Banks to acquire, hold, vote or dispose of any securities of the Company.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F4">Each Reporting Person disclaims beneficial ownership of the securities reported herein, including the Subject Shares, except to the extent of its pecuniary interest therein, and this Form 4 shall not be deemed to be an admission that such Reporting Person is the beneficial owner of such securities for purposes of Section 16 or for any other purpose.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F5">On September 2, 2025, JAB Holdings B.V. agreed to extend the term of the Long Swap with Banco Santander, S.A., BNP Paribas and Societe Generale by approximately two (2) years for no additional consideration, although JAB Holdings B.V. has the right to terminate and close out the Long Swap during certain specified earlier periods if it so chooses. The extension resulted in a deemed cancellation of the existing Long Swap and a deemed entry into a new Long Swap with a later settlement date. The deemed cancellation is exempt from Sections 16(a) and 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, pursuant to Rules 16a-4(d) and 16b-6(d) promulgated thereunder, respectively. All other material terms of such Long Swap, including the Reference Price, remain materially unchanged and in full force and effect.</footnote>
