 SECTION 1 
 INTRODUCTION 
 Avon Products, Inc. (the “Company”) adopted the Supplemental Executive
Retirement and Life Plan, originally effective as of January 1, 1982, and last amended and restated such plan as of July 1, 1998. The Company has now amended and restated such plan to comply with Section 409A, and bifurcated the
Supplemental Executive Retirement and Supplemental Life portions of such plan into separate plan documents, this plan being one of those plan documents. The terms of this plan document shall be effective as of January 1, 2009 and this plan
shall hereinafter be referred to as the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan of Avon Products, Inc. (the “Plan”). With respect to distributions made under the Plan and calculating the amount of such distributions, this plan document
governs distributions that begin on or after January 1, 2009. Distributions under the Plan that began prior to January 1, 2009 (and calculating the amount of such distributions) are governed by the distribution and benefit calculation
provisions in the version of the Plan in effect at the time such distributions began (as modified by the Company in order to ensure good faith compliance with Section 409A during the period of time prior to January 1, 2009), and by the
terms of this plan document only to the extent not inconsistent with such distribution and benefit calculation provisions. 
 In order to
afford Participants and their Beneficiaries the maximum security, the Company has established a grantor trust (the “Trust”) to aid it in accumulating the amounts necessary to satisfy its contractual liability to pay certain benefits under
the terms of the Plan. The Plan provides for the Company to pay all benefits and administrative costs from its general assets to the extent not paid by the Trust. The establishment of the Trust shall not convey rights to the Participants that are
greater than those of the general creditors of the Company and shall not affect the Company’s continuing liability to pay Plan benefits and administrative costs, except that the Company’s liability shall be offset by actual benefits and
administrative cost payments, if any, made by the Trust. 
 SECTION 2 
 DEFINITIONS 
 As used in the Plan, the masculine pronoun shall include the
feminine and the feminine pronoun shall include the masculine unless otherwise specifically indicated. In addition, the following words and phrases as used in the Plan shall have the following meanings unless a different meaning is plainly required
by the context: 
 2.1 “Actuarial Equivalent” shall refer to a benefit of equivalent value and shall have the same
definition as such term has under the Retirement Plan. 

 2.2 “Annual Benefit Offset” shall mean the aggregate annual retirement allowance that
would have been payable to a Participant under the Retirement Plan and the Other Plans, expressed in the form of a single life annuity, which form of benefit shall be the Actuarial Equivalent of the aggregate benefits that would be payable under
such plans if they commenced on the same date as the Supplemental Retirement Allowance. In calculating the Annual Benefit Offset, for purposes of determining the annual retirement allowance payable under the Retirement Plan, such allowance shall be
deemed to be the annual retirement allowance that would have been payable to the Participant under the formula contained in the Retirement Plan on June 30, 1998, if such formula had continued in effect after that date until the
Participant’s retirement or death. 
 2.3 “Average Final Compensation” shall mean the average annual Compensation of a
Participant during the three (3) years of the Participant’s last ten (10) years of Creditable Service in which the Participant’s Compensation was highest. If a Participant has less than three (3) years of Creditable Service,
Average Final Compensation shall be computed over all such years. In the event that a Participant has a “Partial Compensation Year” (as that term is defined in Section 1 of Appendix VI of the Retirement Plan), solely for purposes of
determining a Participant’s three (3) years of Compensation to be used in calculating his Average Final Compensation, the Participant’s Compensation for such Partial Compensation Year shall be annualized in accordance with the rules
set forth in the last sentence of the penultimate paragraph of Section 1 of Appendix VI of the Retirement Plan; provided that the reference in such sentence to the “sixth highest year” shall be replaced with a reference to the
“fourth highest year.” 
 2.4 “Beneficiary” shall mean the person or persons designated by a Participant as his
beneficiary, such designation to be made in a time and manner determined by the Retirement Board. If a Participant fails to designate a beneficiary or if a beneficiary predeceases a Participant, then the Participant’s spouse shall be the
beneficiary, or if no spouse survives the Participant, then the Participant’s estate shall be the beneficiary. A Participant may change his beneficiary at the time and in the manner determined by the Retirement Board. 
 2.5 “Beneficiary’s Allowance” shall mean the benefit payable to the Beneficiary of certain Participants as described in
Section 5. 
 2.6 “Board of Directors” shall mean the board of directors of the Company. 
  

 2 

 2.7 “Change of Control” shall mean: 
 (a) the acquisition by any individual, entity or group (within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) or 14(d)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) (a “Person”) of beneficial ownership (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of voting securities of the corporation where such acquisition causes such person to
own twenty percent (20%) or more of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”); provided
that for purposes of this Section 2.7(a), the following acquisitions shall not be deemed to result in a Change of Control: (i) any acquisition directly from the Company; (ii) any acquisition by the Company; (iii) any acquisition
by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any corporation controlled by the Company; or (iv) any acquisition by any corporation pursuant to a transaction that complies with clauses (i),
(ii) and (iii) of Section 2.7(c); and provided further that, if any Person’s beneficial ownership of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities reaches or exceeds twenty percent (20%) as a result of a transaction described in
clause (i) or (ii) above, and such Person subsequently acquires beneficial ownership of additional voting securities of the Company, then such subsequent acquisition shall be treated as an acquisition that causes such Person to own twenty
(20%) or more of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities; or 
 (b) individuals who, as of January 1, 2009, constitute the Board
of Directors (the “Incumbent Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors; provided that any individual becoming a director subsequent to such date whose election, or nomination for election by
the Company’s shareholders, was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered as though such individual were a member of the Incumbent Board, but excluding, for this purpose,
any such individual whose initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on
behalf of a Person other than the Board of Directors; or 
 (c) the approval by the shareholders of the Company of a reorganization, merger
or consolidation, or sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company (“Business Combination”), or, if consummation of such Business Combination is subject, at the time of such approval by shareholders, to
the consent of any government or governmental agency, then the obtaining of such consent (either explicitly or implicitly by consummation); excluding, however, any Business Combination pursuant to which (i) all or substantially all of the
individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, 

  

 3 

 
more than sixty percent (60%) of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting
securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including, without limitation, a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns the Company
or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership immediately prior to such Business Combination of the Outstanding Company Voting
Securities, (ii) no Person (excluding any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or such corporation resulting from such Business Combination) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, twenty percent (20%) or more of,
respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation except to the extent that such ownership
existed prior to the Business Combination, and (iii) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination were members of the Incumbent Board at the time of the execution of
the initial agreement, or of the action of the Board of Directors, providing for such Business Combination; or 
 (d) approval by the
shareholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the Company. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change of Control
shall be deemed to have occurred with respect to any individual by reason of any actions or events in which such individual participates in a capacity other than in his capacity as an officer or employee of the Company (or as a director of the
Company or a Subsidiary, where applicable). 
 2.8 “Code” shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time
to time. 
 2.9 “Compensation” shall mean the regular salary or wages paid to an Active Participant or deferred for services
rendered to the Company or a Subsidiary during any year in which the Participant accrues Creditable Service, including any deferrals under a 401(k) plan or salary reduction under a “Section 125 plan” of the Company or a Subsidiary, plus
any annual bonus (as opposed to a bonus or award that is based on performance over multiple years) payable to an employee (disregarding any election to defer the receipt thereof) under the Company’s Management Incentive Plan, Variable Incentive
Plan, Executive Incentive Plan, or any similar or successor plan for services performed during the prior year; provided that Active Participants eligible to participate in the Management Incentive Plan are not eligible to participate in the Variable
Incentive Plan after January 1, 1998, but the bonus payable to the Active Participants participating in the Variable Incentive Plan prior to January 1, 1998 will continue to be included in Compensation. Unless otherwise expressly provided
in a 

  

 4 

 
Participant’s Individual Agreement, Compensation shall not include special termination or severance payments or benefits, whether characterized as such,
made pursuant to any employment agreement, separation agreement, severance plan or policy, or any similar arrangement. 
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, with respect to any period of absence (during which disability benefits are being paid to the Participant under the Company’s short-term or long-term disability plan) that is included as Creditable Service, the Participant’s
annual Compensation for purposes of the Plan during such period of absence shall be deemed to be the greater of (i) his Compensation in his last full calendar year of employment immediately preceding the beginning of such absence, or
(ii) the actual Compensation that he received in the year the absence began. 
 2.10 “Compensation Committee” means the
Compensation Committee appointed by the Board of Directors. 
 2.11 “Creditable Service” shall mean: 
 (a) the total number of years and completed months of service rendered by an Active Participant as an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary;

 (b) periods of authorized leaves of absence from the Company or a Subsidiary approved by the Retirement Board, including but not limited
to leaves required to be granted pursuant to the Family and Medical Leave Act of 1993 and the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act, and, notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, any period of absence
while disability benefits are being paid to the Participant under the Company’s short-term or long-term disability plans, provided that no Creditable Service will accrue for any portion of a leave of absence that extends beyond the date that
the Participant incurs a “separation from service” (as that term is defined in Section 409A); 
 (c) any prior Creditable
Service under the Plan rendered by an employee who was formerly a Participant and who subsequently becomes a new Active Participant pursuant to Section 3; and 
 (d) service that is recognized for purposes of the Plan by reason of any Outside Agreement. 
 Subject to
approval by the Compensation Committee, a Participant may be granted additional years of Creditable Service either for purposes of determining the amount of the allowance under the Plan or for purposes of satisfying the service requirements
necessary for benefits under the Plan, or both. Additional service granted 

  

 5 

 
under a specific provision of the Plan or under provisions of individual contracts with the Participant or under any severance plan or policy of the Company
covering the Participant shall also be included in determining Creditable Service, but only in accordance with the specific terms of such provisions.

partner relationship with, anyone else, and 
 (f) the Participant has filed an Affidavit of Eligibility for Domestic Partner Benefits with
the Retirement Board. 
 An individual shall cease to be a Domestic Partner upon the filing by the Participant of an Affidavit of Termination
of Domestic Partnership with the Retirement Board. 
 2.15 “Early Retirement Allowance” shall mean the Supplemental
Retirement Allowance that is payable to an Active Participant who retires before attaining Normal Retirement Age, but after attaining age 55 with fifteen (15) or more years of Creditable Service, or after attaining an age that, when added to
his Creditable Service, totals at least 85 years. 
  

 6 

 2.16 “Hardship Retirement Allowance” means a Supplemental Retirement Allowance that may
be payable to an Active Participant pursuant to Section 4.1(b). 
 2.17 “Individual Agreement” means a written
agreement entered into between the Company and a Participant that specifically refers to benefits payable to or on behalf of such Participant under the Plan. The intent of the parties to any such Individual Agreement is, in part, to cause benefits
payable under the Plan to be in compliance with Section 409A. 
 2.18 “Nonforfeitable” shall refer only to the vested
unsecured contractual right of a Participant, his Beneficiary, and his Dependent Children, if any, to benefits under the Plan. In no event shall “Nonforfeitable” imply any preferred claim on or to, or any beneficial ownership interest in,
any assets of the Company or its Subsidiaries before those assets are paid to any individual pursuant to the terms of the Plan. As provided in Sections 8.5 and 8.6, certain events may result in the forfeiture of Nonforfeitable benefits.

 2.19 “Normal Retirement Age” shall mean age 65. 
 2.20 “Normal Retirement Allowance” shall mean the Supplemental Retirement Allowance that is payable to an Active Participant who retires
after attaining Normal Retirement Age.

pension plan sponsored by the Company (other than the Retirement Plan) or any Subsidiary and of any retirement or pension allowance (but not any form of severance or special termination payment) set forth and payable pursuant to any employment
contract or any other agreement (other than an individual deferred compensation contract under which elective employee salary or bonus deferrals are made) between the Participant and the Company or a Subsidiary. 
 The term “Other Plans” shall also include the employer-provided portion of any other pension or retirement plans sponsored by the predecessor
employer of a Participant and of any retirement or pension allowance (but not any form of severance or special termination payment) set forth and payable pursuant to any employment contract or any other agreement (other than an individual deferred
compensation contract under which elective employee salary or bonus deferrals are made) between the Participant and the predecessor employer of a Participant providing for benefits attributable in whole or in part to service that is recognized under
the Plan as Creditable Service. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the employer-provided portion of the benefits paid or payable to or on
behalf of a Participant pursuant to Other Plans shall only include a proportionate share of such benefits based on the ratio by which the portion of the 

  

 7 

 
service recognized under the Other Plan that is recognized as Creditable Service bears to the total service recognized under the Other Plan. 
 2.22 “Outside Agreement” shall mean a written agreement entered into between a duly authorized officer of the Company with authority to

Participant in the Plan; provided that such Participant shall cease to be an Active Participant no later than the date that such Participant “separates from service” (as that term is defined in Section 409A). 
 (b) “Retired Participant” shall mean a former employee who has retired on or after meeting the requirements for a Supplemental
Retirement Allowance under Section 4. 
 (c) “Vested Participant” shall mean an employee or former employee of the

The Compensation Committee shall have the authority to include, as Active Participants, officers of the Company on the U.S. payroll, at the level of Senior Vice President or above, who are covered by individual employment agreements with the

 9 

 3.2 Termination of Participation. 
 When an individual ceases to be an Active Participant, he shall cease to be a Participant and shall have no rights to a Supplemental Retirement Allowance
unless he is a Vested Participant or a Retired Participant. 
 SECTION 4 
 SUPPLEMENTAL RETIREMENT ALLOWANCES 
 4.1 Nonforfeitable Right to a
Supplemental Retirement Allowance. 
 (a) A Participant’s right to receive a Supplemental Retirement Allowance, the formula for
calculating the amount of any such Supplemental Retirement Allowance, and the time and form of payment of any such Supplemental Retirement Allowance are set forth in such Participant’s Individual Agreement. A Participant’s right to receive
a Supplemental Retirement Allowance is subject to the provisions of Section 8. 
 (b) An Active Participant who has not attained Normal
Retirement Age, but who has attained age 58 and completed fifteen (15) or more years of Creditable Service, and who is deemed to be suffering from a hardship, as determined in the sole and unilateral discretion of the Retirement Board on a
case-by-case basis, shall have a Nonforfeitable right to his Supplemental Retirement Allowance, subject to Section 8, and may retire and receive payment of a Hardship Retirement Allowance. Payment of the Hardship Retirement Allowance shall
commence at the time and in the form set forth in such Participant’s Individual Agreement. 
 (c) Approval by the Retirement Board under
this Section 4.1 may be evidenced by the written consent of any two members of the Retirement Board. In the event that the Plan is amended or terminated, or in the event of a Change of Control, Participants shall have the right to a
Supplemental Retirement Allowance pursuant to Section 9. 
 4.2 Amount of Supplemental Retirement Allowance. 
 (a) The formula used to calculate the amount of a Participant’s Supplemental Retirement Allowance is set forth in his Individual Agreement.

 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.2(a), any Participant entitled to a Normal Retirement Allowance who (i) is or
was an officer of the Company as of January 1, 1995, at the level of Senior Vice President or above, and covered by an individual employment agreement with the Company that was approved by the Board of Directors, or (ii) is or was a senior
executive designated by the 

  

 10 

 
Compensation Committee as eligible to receive a minimum allowance, shall receive an annual Normal Retirement Allowance that, when added to the Actuarial
Equivalent of the benefit paid or payable to such Participant under the Retirement Plan and Other Plans, assuming that the Participant began to receive his benefit under the Retirement Plan and Other Plans at the same time that the Normal Retirement
Allowance commences under the Plan (expressed as an annual benefit in a form that is the same as the form in which the Supplemental Retirement Allowance is payable), is not less than fifty percent (50%) of the Participant’s Average Final
Compensation. Such benefit under the Retirement Plan and Other Plans shall be calculated in a manner similar to that set forth in the definition of Annual Benefit Offset. 
 (c) Except to the extent explicitly provided to the contrary in a Participant’s Individual Agreement, the annual Early Retirement Allowance for Participants who have a Nonforfeitable right to such an allowance
shall be equal to the Normal Retirement Allowance that the Participant would have received, based on the Participant’s Average Final Compensation and Creditable Service at the date of retirement; provided that, if the Participant retires before
the sum of such Participant’s age and Creditable Service is 85 years, then the allowance shall be calculated instead by (1) determining the benefit without regard to the Annual Benefit Offset, (2) then reducing the benefit (i) by
3/12ths of 1% for each month (but not to exceed sixty (60) months) by which the date that the allowance commences precedes the month in which the Supplemental Retirement Allowance would have commenced if the Participant retired at Normal
Retirement Age, and (ii) by 5/12ths of 1% for each such month in excess of sixty (60) months, and (3) then applying the Annual Benefit Offset. The Early Retirement Allowance payable to a Participant whose age and Creditable Service
total at least 85 years shall be equal to the allowance determined in accordance with his Individual Agreement based on Average Final Compensation and Creditable Service at the time of retirement without reduction for commencement of payment prior
to Normal Retirement Age. 
 (d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.2(c), any Participant entitled to an Early Retirement
Allowance who has attained age 60 and completed fifteen (15) years of Creditable Service and who (i) is or was an officer of the Company as of January 1, 1995, at the level of Senior Vice President or above, and covered by an
individual employment agreement with the Company that was approved by the Board of Directors, or (ii) is or was a senior executive designated by the Compensation Committee as eligible to receive a minimum allowance, shall receive an annual
Early Retirement Allowance that, when added to the Actuarial Equivalent of any retirement allowance paid or payable to such Participant under the Retirement Plan and any Other Plans, assuming that the Participant began to receive his benefit under
the Retirement Plan and Other Plans at the same time that the Early Retirement Allowance commences under the Plan (expressed as an annual benefit in a form that is the same as 

  

 11 

 
the form in which the Supplemental Retirement Allowance is payable), is not less than fifty percent (50%) of the Participant’s Average Final
Compensation, reduced by 4/12ths of 1% for each month by which the Participant’s date of retirement precedes Normal Retirement Age. The allowance under the Retirement Plan and Other Plans described in the immediately preceding sentence shall be
calculated in a manner similar to that set forth in the definition of the Annual Benefit Offset. 
 (e) The annual Hardship Retirement
Allowance for Participants who have a Nonforfeitable right to such an allowance shall be equal to the Normal Retirement Allowance determined in accordance with a Participant’s Individual Agreement, based on the Participant’s Average Final
Compensation and Creditable Service at the date of retirement; provided that such allowance shall in no event be less than the Early Retirement Allowance to which such Participant would be entitled upon retirement under Sections 4.2(c) and 4.2(d),
if applicable. 
 4.3 Six-Month Delay in Payment for Specified Employees. 
 To the extent that any amount payable under the Plan, including a Supplemental Retirement Allowance, constitutes an amount payable following a
“separation from service” (as that term is defined in Section 409A), then, notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan to the contrary, such amount will not be paid to the Participant during the six-month period immediately
following such Participant’s “separation from service” if such Participant is deemed to be a “specified employee” (as that term is defined in Section 409A and pursuant to procedures established by the Company) on the
“separation from service” date. During the seventh month following the month in which such “separation from service” occurs, all amounts that otherwise would have been paid to such Participant during that six-month period, but
were not so paid due to this Section 4.3, will be paid to such Participant in a single lump-sum payment. This six-month delay will cease to be applicable if the Participant “separates from service” due to death or if the Participant
dies before the six-month period has elapsed. 
 Amounts that are not paid to a Participant because of this Section 4.3 at the time such
amounts otherwise would have been paid to such Participant will accrue interest from the date such amount would have been paid to such Participant but for this Section 4.3 through the day immediately preceding the date that such amount is
actually paid to such Participant. Such interest shall accrue at the rate set forth from time to time in Section 1.1(b) of the Retirement Plan and shall be paid to such Participant at the same time that the underlying amounts are paid to such
Participant. 
  

 12 

 4.4 Restoration to Service. 
 If a Participant who retired or otherwise terminated employment with the Company and its Subsidiaries is restored to service, such restoration will not
affect the continued payment of his Supplemental Retirement Allowance, if any. Upon his subsequent retirement or termination, in order to prevent any duplication of benefits under the Plan, any additional Supplemental Retirement Allowance shall be
recomputed by taking into account any Supplemental Retirement Allowance accrued by the Participant before and after his restoration to service, and will be reduced by the Actuarial Equivalent of the Supplemental Retirement Allowance already received
or being received by such Participant, if any. 
 SECTION 5 
 BENEFICIARY RETIREMENT ALLOWANCES 
 5.1 Beneficiary’s Allowance. 
 (a) The circumstances under which a Participant’s Beneficiary will receive a Beneficiary’s Allowance as a result of the Participant’s
death are set forth in the Participant’s Individual Agreement. In no event will a Participant’s Beneficiary be entitled to a Beneficiary’s Allowance if such Participant has begun to receive his Supplemental Retirement Allowance.

 (b) The time and form of payment of any Beneficiary’s Allowance, and the method for calculating the amount of such Beneficiary’s
Allowance, are set forth in the Participant’s Individual Agreement. To the extent that any such Individual Agreement does not provide for a time and form of payment of the Beneficiary’s Allowance, or the method for calculating the amount
of such Beneficiary’s Allowance, then the Beneficiary’s Allowance shall be paid in a single lump sum during the month following the month of the Participant’s death or following the month in which the Participant would have attained
age 55, whichever is later, which lump sum will be the Actuarial Equivalent of the Supplemental Retirement Allowance (based on the Participant’s Creditable Service as of his date of death) that the Beneficiary would have received if the
Participant had retired and begun to receive his Supplemental Retirement Allowance in the form of a 100% joint and survivor annuity with such Beneficiary on the date of death, or on the date such Participant would have attained age 55, if later.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Participant was married or had a Domestic Partner on the date of the Participant’s death, and the Beneficiary’s Allowance is payable to such spouse or Domestic Partner, then the Beneficiary’s
Allowance shall not be less than an amount equal to twenty percent (20%) of the Participant’s annual rate of Compensation at the time of his death, less the Actuarial Equivalent of the amount of any death benefit allowance (expressed as an
annual amount payable for the life of the Beneficiary and 

  

 13 

 
commencing on the same date that the Beneficiary’s Allowance commences, regardless of whether the Beneficiary is the actual recipient of such death
benefit allowance) paid or payable on behalf of such Participant under the Retirement Plan and any Other Plans. 
 (c) In the event of the
Participant’s death before his “separation from service” (as that term is defined in Section 409A), then the allowance payable under the Plan on his behalf will be payable pursuant to this Section 5 (i.e., the
Beneficiary’s Allowance and the Dependent Children’s Allowance, if any). In the event of the Participant’s death after his “separation from service,” then any remaining payments under his Supplemental Retirement Allowance
will be paid to his Beneficiary in a single lump-sum payment, payable during the month following the month in which the Participant dies, and no allowance will be payable pursuant to this Section 5. 
 5.2 Dependent Children’s Allowance. 
 (a) Each Dependent Child, up to a maximum of four (4) such children, shall receive a Dependent Children’s Allowance, which is a yearly allowance equal to ten percent (10%) of the yearly amount of the Beneficiary’s
Allowance calculated under Section 5.1 at the time of the Participant’s death (calculated as if the Beneficiary is the Surviving Spouse or Domestic Partner even if such allowance is not payable to such Surviving Spouse or Domestic
Partner), plus ten percent (10%) of the yearly benefits that are payable to the Surviving Spouse or the Participant’s Domestic Partner under the Retirement Plan and any Other Plan (or would be payable if such benefits were payable to such
Surviving Spouse or Domestic Partner) (based on the assumption that benefits commence under such plans on the same date as benefits commence hereunder). 
 (b) For purposes of Section 5.2(a), if the Participant’s spouse or Domestic Partner predeceases the Participant, then the allowance under Section 5.1 shall be determined as if such spouse or Domestic
Partner had not predeceased the Participant and as if yearly benefits under the Retirement Plan and any Other Plan are payable to such predeceased spouse or Domestic Partner, and shall be based upon such spouse’s or Domestic Partner’s
actuarially determined life expectancy as of the date of such spouse’s or Domestic Partner’s death. 
 (c) For purposes of
Section 5.2(a), in the event that the Participant had no spouse or Domestic Partner, other than for the reason that the spouse or Domestic Partner predeceased the Participant, then the allowance under Section 5.1 shall be based upon the
assumption that the Participant had a spouse or Domestic Partner who was five (5) years younger than the Participant, that any yearly benefits payable under the Retirement Plan and any Other Plan are payable to such assumed spouse or Domestic

  

 14 

 
Partner, and that the spouse’s or Domestic Partner’s allowance under Section 5.1 had commenced on the date of the Participant’s death.

 (d) For purposes of Section 5.2(a), in the event that the spouse or Domestic Partner of a Participant dies prior to commencement of
the Beneficiary’s Allowance, then the amount of the Dependent Children’s Allowance hereunder shall be determined on the assumption that the allowance under Section 5.1 had commenced on the date of the spouse’s or Domestic
Partner’s death and that any yearly benefits payable under the Retirement Plan and any Other Plan had commenced on the date of the spouse’s or Domestic Partner’s death. 
 (e) The Dependent Children’s Allowance hereunder shall begin to be paid at the time and in the form set forth in the Participant’s Individual
Agreement and shall continue to be paid to the Dependent Children in accordance with the terms of such Individual Agreement. 
 (f)
Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.2 to the contrary, a Participant’s Individual Agreement may vary the terms and conditions under which any Dependent Children’s Allowance will be payable on behalf of such Participant.

 (g) The amount of any Beneficiary’s Allowance payable under Section 5.1 shall not be reduced due to the payment of a benefit
under this Section 5.2 to one or more Dependent Children. 
 SECTION 6 
 FORMS OF PAYMENT 
 6.1 Form of Payment Election. The form of payment of a
Participant’s Supplemental Retirement Allowance is set forth in his Individual Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain Participants made a separate payment election prior to January 1, 2009 in accordance with transition rules
issued under Section 409A. Those elections remain valid except to the extent superseded prior to January 1, 2009 by an Individual Agreement. 
 6.2 Automatic Form. 
 (a) In the event that no form of payment election or provision is in effect
with respect to any Participant, then such Participant will be deemed to have elected to have his Supplemental Retirement Allowance payable as follows: (i) 80% of the Actuarial Equivalent value of the Supplemental Retirement Allowance will be
paid in a lump sum during the month in which the Supplemental Retirement Allowance is payable (the “Lump-Sum Payment Month”); and (2) 20% of the Actuarial Equivalent 

  

 15 

 
value of the Supplemental Retirement Allowance will be paid in sixty equal, monthly installments beginning during the Lump-Sum Payment Month. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any payment of the Supplemental Retirement Allowance is subject to Section 4.3. 
 (b) Notwithstanding anything contained
in the Plan to the contrary, during the two-year period immediately following a “change in control event” (as that term is defined in the final regulations issued under Section 409A), the automatic form of payment of a Supplemental
Retirement Allowance shall be a single lump-sum payment in cash, provided that a Participant’s Individual Agreement may expressly supersede this Section 6.2(b) and, subject to complying with Section 409A, provide for a different time
and form of payment during such two-year period. 
 6.3 Automatic Cash-Out of Benefits. 
 Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or a Participant’s Individual Agreement to the contrary, if, at the time payment is due or at any time
thereafter, the Actuarial Equivalent present value of any Supplemental Retirement Allowance payable to a Participant (including the value of any benefit payable to his Surviving Spouse or Domestic Partner after his death) is less than or equal to
the then-applicable dollar amount under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B), then the Company will pay the Participant or his Beneficiary, as applicable, a cash lump-sum payment, regardless of the form and timing of benefit payments that the Participant
had previously elected, if any, or is otherwise entitled to; provided that such payment by the Company may only be made if the payment is made in connection with the termination and liquidation of such Participant’s interests in all
arrangements that would constitute nonqualified deferred compensation plans under Code Section 409A and that would be aggregated with the Plan pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(c)(2). Any such payment will be made by the
Company no later than December 31 of the year in which the benefit becomes payable in a lump sum pursuant to the cash-out rules of this Section 6.3 or, if later, by the 15th day of the third month following the month in which the
Participant’s “separation from service” occurs. 
 SECTION 7 
 ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN AND GOVERNING LAW 
 7.1 Except as otherwise
specifically provided in the Plan, the Retirement Board shall be the administrator of the Plan. The Retirement Board shall have full authority to determine all questions arising in connection with the Plan, including the discretionary authority to
interpret the Plan, to adopt procedural rules, and to employ and rely on such legal counsel, actuaries, accountants, and agents as it may deem advisable to assist in the administration of the Plan. Decisions of the Retirement Board shall be 

  

 16 

 
conclusive and binding on all persons. The Retirement Board shall provide to the trustee of any Trust established pursuant to Section 1 such
certification or other documentation as may be required by the trustee in connection with the payment of benefits to Participants. Unless otherwise determined by the Company, the membership of the Retirement Board shall be established pursuant to
the provisions of the Retirement Plan from time to time. The Retirement Board may from time to time, in its discretion, delegate any authority and responsibility it may have for the administration and operation of the Plan to such individuals and
bodies as it may determine. 
 7.2 After a Change in Control, the Retirement Board may be changed by the Company only with the consent of a
majority of the Participants (excluding Beneficiaries). 
 7.3 Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, all rights hereunder shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
 SECTION 8 
 CERTAIN RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS 
 8.1
The establishment of the Plan shall not be construed as conferring any legal rights upon any employee or other person for the continuation of his employment, nor shall it interfere with the rights of the Company or a Subsidiary to discharge any
employee and to treat such employee without regard to the effect that such treatment might have upon such employee as a Participant in the Plan. 
 8.2 If the Retirement Board shall find that a Participant or other person entitled to a benefit is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, or if such person is a minor, then the Retirement Board may direct that any
benefit payment due to such Participant or other person, unless claim shall have been made therefor by a duly appointed legal representative, be paid on such Participant’s or other person’s behalf to such Participant’s or other
person’s spouse, child, parent, or other blood relative, or to a person with whom the Participant or other person resides. Any such payment so made shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Plan with respect to such Participant or
such other person. 
 8.3 Each Participant, before any benefit shall be payable to or on behalf of such person under the Plan, shall file
with a member of the Retirement Board, at least thirty (30) days prior to the time of retirement or, in the case of a Vested Participant, prior to the earliest date that his benefit can commence, such information, if any, as shall be required
to establish such person’s rights and benefits under the Plan. 
  

 17 

 8.4 Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.10, no benefit under the Plan shall be subject in any
manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, garnishment, attachment, encumbrance, or charge, and any attempt to do so shall be void; nor shall any such benefit be in any manner liable for or subject to the debts,
contracts, liabilities, engagements, or torts of the person entitled to such benefit. 
 8.5 The obligation of the Company to make or
continue payment of any benefits hereunder shall cease with respect to any Participant who (a) at any time is convicted of a crime involving dishonesty or fraud relating to the Company, (b) at the time, without the Company’s written
consent, knowingly uses or discloses any confidential or proprietary information relating to the Company, or (c) within three years following termination of employment, without the Company’s written consent, accepts employment with, or
provides consulting services to, a principal competitor of the Company. 
 8.6 Except to the extent that a Participant has a Nonforfeitable
right to a benefit pursuant to Section 9, if, after written notice by the Company, the Participant declines retirement at the request of the Company, or if the Participant’s voluntary retirement (other than for disability) prior to age 62
is not approved by the Company, then the Retirement Board shall have the right to cause forfeiture of any benefit to or on account of the Participant under the Plan. 
 8.7 All benefits payable under the Plan shall be payable by the Company from its general assets. The Plan shall not be funded by the Company. However, solely for its own convenience, the Company reserves the right to
provide for payment of benefits hereunder through a trust, which trust may be irrevocable, but the assets of which shall be subject to the claims of the Company’s general creditors in the event of the Company’s bankruptcy or insolvency, as
defined in the Trust established pursuant to Section 1. In no event shall the Company be required to segregate any amount credited to any account, which shall be established merely as an accounting convenience; no Participant, Beneficiary,
Surviving Spouse, Domestic Partner, or Dependent Child shall have any rights whatsoever in any specific assets of the Company or the Trust. 
 8.8 When payments commence under the Plan, the Company shall have the right to deduct from each payment made under the Plan any required withholding taxes. 
 8.9 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Company shall make payments hereunder before such payments are otherwise due if it determines that a Participant or Beneficiary has recognized
income for federal income tax purposes under Section 409A with respect to amounts that are or will be payable to him under the Plan. The amount of any such payment may not exceed the amount that such 

  

 18 

 
Participant or Beneficiary has recognized under Section 409A with respect to amounts that are or will be payable to him under the Plan. 
 8.10 Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Company shall make payments hereunder to an individual other than the
Participant before such payments are otherwise due to the Participant if the Company determines that such payments are being made in order to fulfill the requirements of a “domestic relations order” (as defined in Section 414(p)(1)(B)
of the Code). 
 SECTION 9 
 AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN 
 9.1 Right to Amend. 
 The Board of Directors (or the Compensation Committee to the extent it has been delegated authority) reserves the right at any time and from time to
time, and retroactively if deemed necessary or appropriate, to amend or modify, in whole or in part, any or all of the provisions of the Plan pursuant to its normal procedures; provided that no such modification or amendment shall adversely affect
the rights and benefits of Participants that had accrued or become Nonforfeitable under the Plan prior to the date that such amendment or modification is adopted or becomes effective, whichever is later. For purposes of this Section 9,
“accrued” benefits refer to the benefits to which a Participant would be entitled, based on his Creditable Service and Compensation as of the date that the determination is made, as if the Participant had a Nonforfeitable right to benefits
as of such date. 
 9.2 Right to Terminate. 
 The Board of Directors (or the Compensation Committee to the extent it has been delegated authority) may terminate the Plan for any reason at any time, provided that such termination shall not adversely affect the
rights and benefits of Participants that had accrued or become Nonforfeitable under the Plan prior to the date that the termination is adopted or made effective, whichever is later. 
 9.3 Effect of Plan Termination on Benefits. 
 (a) In the event that the Plan is terminated, then each Participant, whether or not such Participant has met the age or service requirements to be entitled to a benefit under the Plan or under the Retirement Plan, shall have a
Nonforfeitable right to: (i) the Supplemental Retirement Allowance described in Section 4 that such Participant had accrued through the date of Plan termination; and (ii) to the death benefits described 

  

 19 

 
in Section 5, based upon the Section 4 benefits accrued by the Participant through the date of Plan termination. 
 (b) For purposes of Section 4, such accrued benefit shall be computed in accordance with the Participant’s Individual Agreement as though the
date of Plan termination were the Participant’s date of retirement, provided that (i) if the Participant is younger than 55, his minimum percentage benefit described in Section 4.2(c) shall be determined upon the assumption that the
Participant were age 55, and such minimum benefit shall then be multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the Participant’s years of Creditable Service and the denominator of which is his years of such Creditable Service projected to
age 55, and (ii) if the Participant terminates employment involuntarily before he attains age 65 and before his age and Creditable Service total 85 years, and his Supplemental Retirement Allowance commences on or after the date that his age and
Creditable Service would have totaled 85 years if his employment with the Company or a Subsidiary had continued, or it commences on or after his attainment of age 65, then his Supplemental Retirement Allowance shall be computed without applying the
reduction for early commencement. This Section 9.3(b) applies to the computation of the amount of the Supplemental Retirement Allowance; the timing of the payment of the allowance is set forth in Section 9.3(c) below. A Participant who
does not have an Individual Agreement at the time of Plan termination will continue to receive his Supplemental Retirement Allowance in accordance with the then-existing terms for his Supplemental Retirement Allowance. 
 (c) The payment of the Supplemental Retirement Allowance described in this Section 9.3 shall continue to be payable at time or times and in such
form as is provided in the Participant’s Individual Agreement (and to the extent not so provided in such Individual Agreement, in accordance with the other Sections of the Plan). 
 9.4 Effect of Plan Amendment on Benefits. 
 In the event that the Plan is amended or modified, in whole or in part, to reduce future accruals of benefits, Supplemental Retirement Allowances, Beneficiary’s Allowances, or Dependent Children’s Allowances, then the Participants
affected by any such amendment or modification shall, except as otherwise agreed to in writing by any such Participant, be treated, with respect to the Supplemental Retirement Allowance or death benefits based thereon that accrued through the date
of such amendment or modification and which allowance or benefits were affected by such amendment or modification, as if the Plan were terminated as of such date and their rights and entitlement to these benefits shall be determined under
Section 9.3; provided that such Participants shall be entitled to continue to accrue benefits after the date of such amendment or modification under such modified or amended terms of the Plan. 
  

 20 

 9.5 Effect of a Change of Control. 
 In the event of a Change of Control, then, with respect to any person who is an Active Participant at the time of the Change of Control who subsequently
ceases for any reason, other than a voluntary termination of employment as defined in Section 9.6, to be an Active Participant, such person shall have a Nonforfeitable right to (a) the Supplemental Retirement Allowance described in
Section 4 that such person had accrued through the date of termination of employment and (b) to the Beneficiary’s Allowance and Dependent Children’s Allowance described in Section 5, based upon the Section 4 benefits
accrued by such person through the date of termination of employment. Such person’s right and entitlement to the Supplemental Retirement Allowance, Beneficiary’s Allowance, and Dependent Children’s Allowance shall be calculated in
accordance with Section 9.3(b) and shall be payable in accordance with Section 9.3(c). 
 9.6 Voluntary Termination of
Employment. 
 For purposes of Section 9.5, a voluntary termination of employment shall mean any termination initiated by the
Participant except a termination initiated after: 
 (a) any substantial adverse change in position, duties, title, or responsibilities,
other than merely by reason of the Company ceasing to be a publicly-traded corporation; 
 (b) any material reduction in base salary or,
unless replaced by equivalent arrangements, any material reduction in annual bonus opportunity or pension or welfare benefit plan coverages; 
 (c) any relocation required by the Company to an office or location more than 25 miles from the Participant’s then-current regular office or location; or 
 (d) any failure of the Company to obtain the agreement of a successor entity to assume the obligations set forth hereunder, provided that the successor has had actual notice of the existence of this arrangement and an
opportunity to assume the Company’s responsibilities hereunder during a period of at least ten (10) business days after receipt of such notice; 
 provided that, in order for a particular event to be treated as an exception to a “voluntary termination,” a Participant must assert such exception within 180 days after first having actual knowledge of the events giving rise
thereto by giving the Company written notice thereof and an opportunity to cure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any employment agreement between the Participant and the Company or a Subsidiary in effect at the time of such
employment termination provides a definition of “constructive 

  

 21 

 
termination” or termination for “good reason” or similar terminology, then such definition shall govern over the events described in this
Section 9.6 to the extent that it provides additional exceptions to the events that are considered a voluntary termination. 
 9.7
Effect of Merger or Acquisition. 
 If any company now or hereafter becomes a Subsidiary of the Company, then the Board of Directors
(or the Compensation Committee to the extent that it has been delegated authority) may include an employee of such Subsidiary in the membership of the Plan upon appropriate action by such company. In such event, or as a result of the merger or
consolidation, or the acquisition by the Company, of all or part of the assets or business of another company, then the Board of Directors (or the Compensation Committee to the extent that it has been delegated authority) shall determine to what
extent, if any, benefits shall be granted for previous service with such Subsidiary or other company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no individual may become a participant in the Plan after December 31, 2008. 
 SECTION 10 
 CLAIM PROCEDURES

 10.1 Every claim for benefits under the Plan shall be in writing directed to a member of the Retirement Board. 
 10.2 Each claim filed shall be decided by the Retirement Board within a reasonable time from its receipt, but not later than 90 days after receipt of the
claim by the Retirement Board (unless special circumstances require an extension of such time, in which case a detailed written notice of such extension will be given to the claimant within the initial 90-day period and such claim shall be decided
no later than 180 days after receipt of the claim by the Retirement Board). A claim that is not decided within the applicable time period may be considered to be denied. If a claim is denied in whole or in part, then the claimant shall be given
written notice of the denial in language calculated to be understood by the claimant, which notice shall: 
 (a) specify the reason or
reasons for the denial; 
 (b) specify the Plan provisions giving rise to the denial; and 
 (c) describe any further information or documentation necessary for the claim to be honored, explain why such documentation or information is necessary,
and explain the Plan’s review procedure. 
  

 22 

 10.3 Upon written request of any claimant whose claim has been denied in whole or in part, the Retirement
Board shall make a full and fair review of the claim and furnish the claimant with a written decision concerning it. Such request for review must be made by the claimant to any member of the Retirement Board within 60 days following the
claimant’s receipt of the benefit denial (or the claim being deemed denied), and any such review will take into account all documents and information submitted by the claimant upon review, whether or not such documents and information were
submitted or considered as part of the initial claim. As part of the review process, a claimant shall: 
 (a) have the
opportunity to submit written comments, documents, records, and other information relating to the claim; and 
 (b) be
provided, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents, records, and other information relevant to the claim. 
 10.4 Each request for review filed shall be decided by the Retirement Board within a reasonable time from its receipt, but not later than 60 days after receipt of the request by the Retirement Board (unless special
circumstances require an extension of such time, in which case a detailed written notice of such extension will be given to the claimant within the initial 60-day period and such claim shall be decided no later than 120 days after receipt of the
claim by the Retirement Board). A request for review that is not decided within the applicable time period may be considered to be denied. If a request for review is denied in whole or in part, then the claimant shall be given written notice of the
denial in language calculated to be understood by the claimant, which notice shall: 
 (a) specify the reason or reasons for
the denial; 
 (b) specify the Plan provisions giving rise to the denial; 
 (c) state that the claimant is entitled to receive, upon request and free of charge, reasonable access to, and copies of, all documents,
records, and other information relevant to the claim; and 
 (d) contain a statement of any rights that the claimant may have
to bring a civil action under Section 502(c) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended.

 BENEFIT RESTORATION PENSION PLAN 
 OF 
 AVON PRODUCTS, INC. 
 Introduction 
 This amendment and restatement of the Benefit Restoration Pension
Plan of Avon Products, Inc. (the “Plan”) has been adopted by the Company and is effective as of January 1, 2009. This plan document governs distributions made under the Plan on or after January 1, 2009. Distributions made under
the Plan before January 1, 2009 were made in accordance with the version of the Plan in effect at the time of the respective distribution (and, if applicable, as the Plan was operated by the Company in order to ensure good faith compliance with
Section 409A during the period of time after December 31, 2004 and before January 1, 2009). 
 The Plan is designed to pay
supplemental benefits to certain Employees who have qualified or may qualify for benefits under the Retirement Plan, as defined below. All benefits payable under the Plan shall be paid out of the general assets of the Company. The Company may
establish a trust in order to aid it in providing benefits due under the Plan. 
 ARTICLE 1 
 Definitions 
 1.1
“Beneficiary” shall mean the person or trust that a Member designates as such under the Retirement Plan, provided that, if a Member has failed to make such a designation or no person designated is alive, no trust has been
established, and no successor Beneficiary has been designated who is alive, then “Beneficiary” shall mean (a) the Member’s spouse, or (b) if no spouse is alive, the deceased Member’s estate (as payable to the legal
representative of such estate). 
 1.2 “Code” shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. 
 1.3 “Company” shall mean Avon Products, Inc., or any successor by merger, purchase, or otherwise, with respect to its Employees; or any
other affiliated company authorized by the Board of Directors of Avon Products, Inc. or the successor to participate in the Plan. 
 1.4
“Compensation Committee” shall mean the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of Avon Products, Inc. 
 1.5
“Effective Date” shall mean July 1, 1998. 

 1.6 “Employee” shall mean an individual who is employed by the Company at any time on or
after the Effective Date. 
 1.7 “Equivalent Actuarial Value” shall mean a benefit of equivalent value when computed on the
basis of the same mortality table and rate or rates of interest and/or empirical tables that are being used to determine the Member’s Retirement Allowance under the Retirement Plan. 
 1.8 “Member” shall mean any Employee or former Employee who has become a participant in the Plan, for so long as his benefits under the
Plan, if any, have not been fully distributed pursuant to the Plan. 
 1.9 “Retirement Allowance” shall mean the accrued
benefit available under the Retirement Plan, using the definitions of “Compensation,” “Credited Service,” and “Vesting Service” contained therein from time to time, but determined without regard to any benefit provided
under Section 17 of the Retirement Plan in the event of a change of control. 
 1.10 “Retirement Board” shall mean the
administrative board or any successor thereto that administers the Retirement Plan. 
 1.11 “Retirement Plan” shall mean the
Avon Products, Inc. Personal Retirement Account Plan as in effect on the Effective Date and as may thereafter be amended from time to time. 
 1.12 “Section 409A” shall mean Code Section 409A, including any Internal Revenue Service regulations and other guidance issued under such Section. 
 1.13 “Separation from Service” shall mean a “separation from service” (as defined under Section 409A). If an Employee is
on military leave, sick leave, or other bona fide leave of absence, then that Employee will not be deemed to have incurred a Separation from Service unless such leave extends beyond six months, in which case the Separation from Service will occur on
the day immediately following the expiration of such six-month period; provided that an Employee who has a statutory or contractual right to reemployment while on a leave of absence will not be deemed to have incurred a Separation from Service, even
if such leave extends beyond six months, as long as such statutory or contractual right remains in effect. However, if a leave of absence is due to a medically determinable physical or mental impairment that can be expected to result in death or to
last for a continuous period of not less than six months, where such impairment causes the Employee to be unable to perform his job duties or the duties of a similar job position, then the six-month period in the prior sentence is replaced with a
29-month period. A leave of absence will constitute a “bona fide leave of absence” only if 

  

 2 

 
there is a reasonable expectation that the Employee will return to perform service for the Company. 
 1.14 “SERP” shall mean the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan of Avon Products, Inc., as in effect on the Effective Date and as may
thereafter be amended from time to time. 
 1.15 “Severance Plan” shall mean the Avon Products, Inc. Severance Pay Plan as
in effect on January 1, 2009 and as may thereafter be amended from time to time, or any successor plan thereto, if any, or any individual arrangement or agreement that provides severance benefits. 
 1.16 “Supplemental Benefit” shall mean the accrued retirement benefit payable under the Plan. 
 ARTICLE 2 
 Membership 
 2.1 Eligibility 
 (a) Every Employee
who is a participant in the Retirement Plan and is a member of a select group of management or highly-compensated employees shall become a Member of the Plan on the first day of the calendar month coincident with or next following the date that his
accrued Retirement Allowance is limited as a result of the application of Code Section 415 or 401(a)(17) or otherwise affected as set forth in Section 3.1 below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Employee who participates in the SERP will
not be a Member or otherwise participate in the Plan. 
 (b) Each Employee who was a Member on June 30, 1998, shall continue to be a
Member as of the Effective Date. 
 2.2 Termination of Membership 
 A Member’s participation in the Plan shall terminate on the later of (a) the date of the Member’s Separation from Service, and
(b) the date that such Member’s benefits payable under the Plan, if any, have been fully distributed. 
  

 3 

 ARTICLE 3 
 Amount and Payment of Benefits 
 3.1 Amount of Supplemental Benefit 
 The annual amount of the Supplemental Benefit payable with respect to a Member, expressed as a single life annuity, shall be equal to: 
 (a) the amount of the Retirement Allowance that would be payable in the form of a single life annuity if (i) the limitations of Code
Section 415 were not applicable, (ii) the annual compensation limitations under Code Section 401(a)(17) were not applicable, (iii) the definition of compensation under the Retirement Plan included compensation electively deferred
by the Member for the “plan year” (as defined in the Retirement Plan) to a deferred compensation plan or program maintained by the Company but only to the extent that such compensation would have been included in such definition if it had
not been deferred, (iv) for highly compensated employees (as defined in Code Section 414), the definition of compensation under the Retirement Plan included the amount of the annual award (as opposed to awards that are based on performance
over multiple years) for 2001 and later years under the Avon Products, Inc. Management Incentive Plan or Avon Products, Inc. Executive Incentive Plan that is paid in the form of restricted stock or stock options, plus any premium for superior
performance, (v) for any Member who is eligible for the benefit referenced in Section 1.2(a) or Section 1.2(b)(2) of the Retirement Plan, such Member received credit under the Retirement Plan (for age, Credited Service, and Vesting
Service, as applicable, as defined in the Retirement Plan) for the number of months for which such Member is eligible to receive severance payments, if any, under the terms of the Severance Plan at the time of his Separation from Service, provided
that such number of months will not exceed twenty-four (24) months, and further provided that such credit will be provided only to the extent that the total of such Member’s age and Credited Service does not exceed eighty-five (85), and
(vi) for any Member who is eligible only for the benefit referenced under Section 1.2(b)(1) of the Retirement Plan, such Member received credit under the Retirement Plan solely for retirement eligibility purposes (and not for age and
Credited Service, as defined in the Retirement Plan) for the number of months for which such Member is eligible to receive severance payments, if any, under the terms of the Severance Plan at the time of his Separation from Service, provided that
such number of months will not exceed twenty-four (24) months, and further provided that such credit will be provided only to the extent that the total of such Member’s age and Credited Service does not exceed eighty-five (85); less

 (b) the Retirement Allowance that is actually payable to the Member. 
  

 4 

 For purposes of this Section 3.1, if any benefit under Section 3.1(b) is payable in a form
other than a single life annuity or at a time other than the time that the Supplemental Benefit is payable under the Plan, such benefit shall be converted to a single life annuity of Equivalent Actuarial Value that is payable as of the date of the
Member’s Separation from Service. For the avoidance of doubt, in order to determine the amount of the Retirement Allowance under Section 3.1(b), it will be assumed that the Retirement Allowance is payable as a single life annuity beginning
at the time of the Member’s Separation from Service, determined using the compensation and service credits that the Member has accumulated under the Retirement Plan through such Separation from Service, whether or not the Retirement Allowance
is actually paid at such time or in such form. 
 For purposes of determining the Supplemental Benefit under the Plan, the definition of
“compensation” in the Retirement Plan is modified to exclude severance pay from such definition, and thus from consideration under the Plan, only for those Employees whose last day of active employment is on or after January 1, 2007.

 3.2 Time and Form of Payment 
 (a) With respect to Supplemental Benefits that begin to be paid on January 1, 2009 or later, such Supplemental Benefits will be paid to the Member, subject to Sections 3.2(b) and 3.6, as follows: (1) 80% of the Equivalent
Actuarial Value of the Supplemental Benefit will be paid in a lump sum during the month following the month in which the Member’s Separation from Service occurs (the “Lump-Sum Payment Month”); and (2) 20% of the Equivalent
Actuarial Value of the Supplemental Benefit will be paid in sixty equal, monthly installments beginning during the Lump-Sum Payment Month. 
 (b) Notwithstanding Section 3.2(a), certain Members who were Members before November 1, 2008 were permitted to elect a different time and/or form of payment before January 1, 2009 in accordance with transition rules issued
under Section 409A. Those elections remain valid, are subject to Section 3.6, and supersede Section 3.2(a). The payment options that were available to be elected by such Member, and the option elected by such Member, if any, are set
forth in the written election form completed by the Member and approved by the Retirement Board. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any other provision
in the Plan, if a Member dies before his Supplemental Benefit otherwise becomes payable, then, notwithstanding Section 3.2(a) and any election made under Section 3.2(b), his Supplemental Benefit as of his date of death (determined under
Section 3.1 by substituting the benefits payable to the Beneficiary in lieu of the benefits payable to the Member) will be paid to his 

  

 5 

 
Beneficiary in a single lump-sum payment (which will be an Equivalent Actuarial Value), payable during the month following the month in which the Member
dies. 
 (d) If a Member dies after his Supplemental Benefit has become payable, then, notwithstanding Section 3.2(a), any remaining
payments under his Supplemental Benefit will be paid to his Beneficiary in a single lump-sum payment, payable during the month following the month in which the Member dies. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if pursuant to Section 3.2(b)
the Member elected to receive his Supplemental Benefit in the form of an annuity or contingent life annuity, remaining payments, if any, will be made in accordance with the terms of the elected annuity. 
 (e) If a Member has elected pursuant to Section 3.2(b) that his Supplemental Benefit be payable under a contingent annuitant option and the
contingent annuitant dies before the Supplemental Benefit becomes payable, then such Member may change his contingent annuitant designation before any payment is made to the Member under the contingent annuitant option. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, at any time before any payment has been made under a contingent annuity, a Member may change his payment election from one form of annuity to another, provided that both annuities have an Equivalent Actuarial Value and that the date of
the first scheduled payment under both annuities is the same. 
 3.3 Restoration to Service 
 If a Member who retired or otherwise terminated employment with the Company is restored to service, such restoration will not effect the continued
payment of his Supplemental Benefit. Upon his subsequent retirement or termination, in order to prevent any duplication of benefits under the Plan, any additional Supplemental Benefit shall be recomputed by taking into account the Supplemental
Benefit accrued by the Member before and after his restoration to service, and will be reduced by the Equivalent Actuarial Value of the Supplemental Benefit already received or being received by such Member. 
 3.4 Elective Transfer to Deferred Compensation Plan 
 Effective as of January 1, 2006, a Participant who accrues benefits under the Plan on or after January 1, 2006 is no longer permitted to elect to have his Supplemental Benefit credited to the Member’s
account under the Avon Products, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan. 
  

 6 

 3.5 Mandatory Cash-Out of Small Account Balances 
 If the Equivalent Actuarial Value of a Member’s Supplemental Benefit at the time the Member incurs a Separation from Service, or at any time
thereafter, is less than or equal to the then-applicable dollar amount under Code Section 402(g)(1)(B), then the Company will pay the Member or his Beneficiary, if applicable, a cash lump-sum payment, regardless of the form and timing of
benefit payments that the Member had previously elected, if any, or is otherwise entitled to under Section 3.2(a); provided that such payment by the Company may only be made if the payment is made in connection with the termination and
liquidation of such Member’s interests in all arrangements that would constitute nonqualified deferred compensation plans under Code Section 409A and that would be aggregated with the Plan pursuant to Treasury Regulation
§ 1.409A-1(c)(2). Any such payment will be made by the Company no later than December 31 of the year in which the Member’s Supplemental Benefit becomes payable in a lump sum pursuant to the cash-out rules of this Section 3.5
or, if later, by the 15th day of the third month following the month in which the Member’s Separation from Service occurs. 
 3.6
Six-Month Delay in Payment to Specified Employees 
 To the extent that any amount payable under the Plan constitutes an amount
payable following a Separation from Service, then, notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan to the contrary, such amount will not be paid to the Member during the six-month period immediately following such Member’s Separation from
Service if such Member is deemed to be a “specified employee” (as that term is defined in Section 409A and pursuant to procedures established by Avon Products, Inc.) at the time of his Separation from Service. During the seventh month
following the month in which such Separation from Service occurs, all amounts that otherwise would have been paid to such Member during that six-month period, but were not so paid due to this Section 3.6, will be paid to such Member in a single
lump-sum payment. This six-month delay will cease to be applicable if the Member’s Separation from Service occurs due to his death or if the Member dies before the six-month period has elapsed. 
 Amounts that are not paid to a Member because of this Section 3.6 at the time such amounts otherwise would have been paid to such Member will accrue
interest from the date such amount would have been paid to such Member but for this Section 3.6 through the day immediately preceding the date that such amount is actually paid to such Member. Such interest shall accrue at the rate set forth
from time to time in Section 1.1(b) of the Retirement Plan and shall be paid to such Member at the same time that the underlying amounts are paid to such Member. 
 3.7 Domestic Relations Orders. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, the Company shall make payments hereunder to an individual other 

  

 7 

 
than the Member before such payments are otherwise due to the Member if the Company determines that such payments are being made in order to fulfill the
requirements of a “domestic relations order” (as defined in Code Section 414(p)(1)(B)). 
 ARTICLE 4 
 General Provisions 
 4.1
Administration 
 The administration of the Plan, including but not limited to the discretionary power to interpret and carry out its
provisions, is the responsibility of the Retirement Board, and the provisions of Section 8 of the Retirement Plan, as amended from time to time, are hereby incorporated herein by reference. 
 4.2 Funding 
 All amounts payable in
accordance with the Plan shall constitute a general unsecured obligation of the Company. Such amounts, as well as any administrative costs relating to the Plan, shall be paid out of the general assets of the Company, unless the Company establishes,
in its sole discretion, a trust the assets of which will be used as a source of payment for some or all benefits due hereunder. In the event that a trust is established for some or all the benefits payable hereunder, the trust shall not be
considered to fund, within the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended, the benefits under the Plan. 
 4.3 No Contract of Employment 
 The establishment of the Plan shall not be construed as conferring any legal rights upon any
person for a continuation of employment, nor shall it interfere with the rights of the Company to discharge any Employee and to treat him without regard to the effect that such treatment might have upon him as a Member of the Plan. 
 4.4 Facility of Payment 
 In the
event that the Retirement Board shall find that a Member is unable to care for his affairs because of illness or accident, the Retirement Board may direct that any benefit payment due him under the Plan, unless claim shall have been made therefor by
a duly appointed legal representative, be paid to his Beneficiary, spouse, child, parent or other blood relative, or to a person with whom he resides, and any such payment so made shall be a complete discharge of the liabilities of the Company
therefor. 
  

 8 

 4.5 Withholding Taxes 
 The Company shall have the right to deduct from each payment to be made under the Plan any required withholding taxes. 
 4.6 Nonalienation 
 Subject to
Section 3.7 and any applicable law, no benefit payable under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to anticipation, alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance, or charge, and any attempt so to do shall be void; nor shall any
such benefit be in any manner liable for or subject to garnishment, attachment, execution, or levy, or liable for or subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagement, or torts of the Member. 
 4.7 Forfeiture for Cause 
 In the
event that a Member shall at any time be convicted of a crime involving dishonesty or fraud on the part of such Member in his relationship with the Company, all benefits that would otherwise be payable to him under the Plan shall be forfeited.

 4.8 Claims Procedure 
 In the event that a Member or his Beneficiary claims that he has improperly been denied an appropriate Supplemental Benefit under the Plan, he shall be entitled to the Claim Review Procedure set forth in Section 9 of the Retirement
Plan following any denial of his claims by the Company. 
 4.9 Construction 
 (a) Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, all rights hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York and, except to the extent otherwise herein provided, consistent with the provisions of the Retirement Plan. 
 (b) The masculine
pronoun shall mean the feminine wherever appropriate. 
 ARTICLE 5 
 Amendment or Termination 
 The Compensation Committee reserves the right to
modify or amend, in whole or in part, or to terminate, the Plan at any time. However, no modification, amendment, or 

  

 9 

 
termination of the Plan shall adversely affect the right of any Member or his Beneficiary to receive the benefits accrued under the Plan in respect of such
Member as of the date of modification, amendment, or termination. Upon the termination of the Plan, benefits hereunder accrued through the date of such Plan termination shall continue to be payable in accordance with the terms of the Plan, as in
effect on such date of Plan termination.
