EXHIBIT 10.29

TIFFANY & CO.
2014 EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE PLAN
Amended and Restated as of March 16, 2016

Section 1
General

1.1    Purpose.  The  2014 Tiffany & Co. Employee Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) has been established by Tiffany & Co., a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) to (i) attract and retain employees; (ii) motivate Participants to achieve the Company’s operating and strategic goals by means of appropriate incentives; (iii) provide incentive compensation opportunities that are competitive with those of other companies competing with the Company and its Related Companies for employees; and (iv) further link Participants’ interests with those of the Company’s other stockholders through compensation that is based on the Company’s Common Stock, thereby promoting the long-term financial interests of the Company and its Related Companies, including the growth in value of the Company’s stockholders’ equity and the enhancement of long-term returns to the Company’s stockholders.

1.2    Participation.  Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, the Committee shall, from time to time, determine and designate from among Eligible Individuals those persons who will be granted one or more Awards under the Plan.  Eligible Individuals who are granted Awards become “Participants” in the Plan.  In the discretion of the Committee, a Participant may be granted any Award permitted under the provisions of the Plan, and more than one Award may be granted to a Participant.  Awards need not be identical but shall be subject to the terms and conditions specified in the Plan.  Subject to Subsection 2.3 of the Plan, Awards may be granted as alternatives to or in replacement for awards outstanding under any plan or arrangement of the Company or a Related Company, or a plan or arrangement of a business or entity, all or a portion of which is acquired by the Company or a Related Company.

1.3    Operation, Administration, and Definitions.  The operation and administration of the Plan, including the Awards made under the Plan, shall be subject to the provisions of Section 4 (relating to operation and administration).  Initially capitalized terms used in the Plan shall be defined as set forth in the Plan (including in the definitional provisions of Section 7 of the Plan).

1.4    Amendment to Prior Plan.  If this Plan becomes effective on approval by the Company’s stockholders, as provided for in Subsection 4.1 below, the Company’s 2005 Employee Incentive Plan (the “2005 Plan”) shall be deemed amended so that no further Awards shall be made under the 2005 Plan on or after the Effective Date of this Plan, although the  2005 Plan shall remain in effect with respect to Awards made under the  2005 Plan prior to the Effective Date of this Plan.  

Section 2
Options and SARs

2.1    Definitions.

		
	(a)
	The grant of an “Option” entitles the Participant to purchase Shares at an Exercise Price established by the Committee.  Options granted under this Section 2 may be either Incentive Stock Options or Non-Qualified Stock Options, as determined in the discretion of the Committee pursuant to Subsection 2.2.  An “Incentive Stock Option” is an Option that is intended to satisfy the requirements applicable to an “incentive stock option” described in Section 422(b) of the Code.  A “Non-Qualified Stock Option” is an Option that is not intended to be an “incentive stock option” as that term is described in Section 422(b) of the Code.  No Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to a Ten Percent Shareholder unless the Exercise Price of that Incentive Stock Option is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the Shares as of the Grant Date and the Incentive Stock Option is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the Grant Date.

		
	(b)
	The grant of a stock appreciation right (an “SAR”) entitles the Participant to receive, in cash or Shares, value equal to all or a portion of the excess of: (a) Fair Market Value of a specified number of Shares at the time of exercise, over (b) an Exercise Price established by the Committee pursuant to Subsection 2.2.

2.2    Exercise Price.  The per-Share “Exercise Price” of each Option and SAR granted under this Section 2 shall be established by the Committee or shall be determined by a formula established by the Committee at the time the Option or SAR is granted; except that the Exercise Price shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share as of the Pricing Date.  For purposes of the preceding sentence, the “Pricing Date” shall be the date on which the Option or SAR is granted unless the Option or SAR is granted on a date on which the principal exchange on which the Shares are then listed or admitted to trading is closed for trading, in which case the “Pricing Date” shall be the most recent date on which such exchange was open for trading prior to such grant date. 

2.3    No Repricing.  Except as provided in Subsection 4.2(c) (which addresses certain permissible adjustments in the event of a merger, reorganization, reclassification, dividend or other circumstances described therein), the Exercise Price of any Option or SAR may not be decreased after the grant of the Award.  Neither an Option nor an SAR may be surrendered or cancelled as consideration in exchange for a new Award of an Option or an SAR with a lower Exercise Price, a Stock Award, or cash. 

2. 4    Exercise.  Options and SARs shall be exercisable in accordance with such terms and conditions and during such periods as may be established by the Committee provided that no Option or SAR shall be exercisable after, and each Option and SAR shall become void no later than, the tenth (10th) anniversary date of the date of grant of such Option or SAR.

2. 5    Payment of Option Exercise Price.  The payment of the Exercise Price of an Option granted under this Section 2 shall be subject to the following:

		
	(a)
	The Exercise Price may be paid by ordinary check or such other form of tender as the Committee may specify.

		
	(b)
	If permitted by the Committee, the Exercise Price for Shares purchased upon the exercise of an Option may be paid in part or in full by tendering Shares (by either actual delivery of Shares or by attestation, with such Shares valued at Fair Market Value as of the date of exercise).  

		
	(c)
	The Committee may permit a Participant to elect to pay the Exercise Price upon the exercise of an Option by irrevocably authorizing a third party to sell Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option (or a sufficient portion of such Shares) and remit to the Company a sufficient portion of the sale proceeds to pay the entire Exercise Price and any tax withholding resulting from such exercise.  

Section 3
Other Stock Awards

3.1    Definition.  A “Stock Award” is a grant of Shares or of a right to receive Shares (or their cash equivalent or a combination of both).

3.2    Restrictions on Stock Awards.  Each Stock Award shall be subject to such conditions, restrictions and contingencies as the Committee shall determine.  These may include continuous service and/or the achievement of Performance Goals. 

Section 4
Operation and Administration

4.1    Effective Date and Duration.  The Plan shall be effective on the date of its approval by the stockholders of the Company at the Company’s 2014 annual meeting (the “Effective Date”) and shall remain in effect as long as any Awards under the Plan are outstanding; provided, however, that, no Award may be granted or otherwise made under the Plan more than ten (10) years after the Effective Date.

4.2    Shares Subject to Plan.

		
	(a)
	(i) Subject to the following provisions of this Subsection 4.2, the maximum number of Shares authorized for Awards under the Plan shall be 8.65 million Shares, provided that such maximum shall be reduced by one (1) Share for every one (1) Share granted under the 2005 Plan after January 31, 2014 and prior to the date of the Company’s 2014 annual meeting. Such maximum shall also be reduced by one (1) Share for every one (1) Share subject to Awards granted under the Plan.

(ii) To the extent an Award, or after January 31, 2014 an award under the 2005 Plan, is forfeited, canceled, expires, fails to vest, or Shares underlying such Award are not delivered because the Award is settled in cash or otherwise terminates without the issuance of Shares, the Shares underlying such Award shall, to the extent of such forfeiture, cancellation, expiration, failure to vest, cash settlement or non-issuance, be added to the Shares available for Awards under the Plan. With respect to SARS or, after January 31, 2014, stock appreciation rights under the 2005 Plan, that are, in each case, settled in stock, no Shares granted with respect to these Awards (including unissued Shares) shall be added to the Shares available for Awards under the Plan.

(iii)  If the Exercise Price and/or tax withholding obligation for any Option or any SAR granted under the Plan is satisfied by tendering Shares to the Company (by either actual delivery or attestation) or by the withholding of Shares by the Company, the number of Shares so tendered or withheld shall not be added to the maximum number of Shares available for Awards under the Plan.  The Company shall not add to the Shares available for Awards under the Plan any Shares reacquired, through open market purchases or otherwise, with the cash proceeds from the exercise of Options.  If the tax withholding obligation for any Award other than an Option or any SAR granted under the Plan, or after January 31, 2014 an award under the 2005 Plan other than a stock option or stock appreciation right, is satisfied by tendering Shares to the Company (by either actual delivery or attestation) or by the withholding of Shares by the Company, the number of Shares so tendered or withheld shall be added to the maximum number of Shares available for Awards under the Plan. 

(iv)  Shares delivered under the Plan in settlement, assumption or substitution of outstanding awards (or obligations to grant future awards) under the plans or arrangements of another entity shall not reduce the maximum number of Shares available for delivery under the Plan, to the extent that such settlement, assumption or substitution occurs as a result of the Company or a Related Company acquiring another entity (or an interest in another entity).
        
		
	(b)
	Subject to adjustment under paragraph 4.2(c), the following additional maximum limitations are imposed under the Plan: (i) the aggregate maximum number of Shares that may be issued under Options intended to be Incentive Stock Options shall be One Million (1,000,000) shares; and (ii), unless the Committee expressly states that an Award to a Named Executive Employee shall not be designed to comply with the Performance Based Exception, in which case such Award shall not be counted against the limits below, the following limitations shall apply: (A) in any fiscal year of the Company, the aggregate number of shares that may be granted to any Participant pursuant to any and all Awards (including Options, SARS and Stock Awards) shall not exceed Four Hundred Thousand (400,000), except for during the first fiscal year of hire for a Participant, during which such aggregate limit shall be Eight Hundred Thousand (800,000); and (B) in any fiscal 

	
		
	2014 EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE PLAN, Amended and Restated March 16, 2016
	Page 4

    

year of the Company, the maximum aggregate cash payout with respect to Other Incentive Awards granted in any fiscal year of the Company pursuant to Section 8 of the Plan which may be made to any Named Executive Employee shall be Three Million Dollars ($3,000,000). 

		
	 (c)
	If the number of outstanding Shares are increased or decreased, or are changed into or exchanged for cash, property or a different number or kind of shares or securities, or if cash, property, Shares or other securities are distributed in respect of such outstanding Shares, in each case as a result of one or more mergers, reorganizations, reclassifications, recapitalizations, stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, dividends (other than regular, quarterly dividends), or other distributions, spin-offs or the like, or if  substantially all of the property and assets of the Company and its Related Companies on a consolidated basis are sold, then, unless the terms of the transaction shall provide otherwise, appropriate adjustments shall be made in the number and/or type of Shares or securities for which Awards may thereafter be granted under the Plan and for which Awards then outstanding under the Plan may thereafter be exercised.  Any such adjustments in outstanding Awards shall be made without changing the aggregate Exercise Price applicable to the unexercised portions of outstanding Options or SARs.  The Committee shall make such adjustments to preserve the benefits or potential benefits of the Plan and the Awards; such adjustments may include, but shall not be limited to, adjustment of: (i)  the number and kind of shares which may be delivered under the Plan; (ii) the number and kind of shares subject to outstanding Awards; (iii) the Exercise Price of outstanding Options and SARs; (iv) the limits specified in Subsections 4.2(a)(i) and 4.2(b) above; and (v) any other adjustments that the Committee determines to be equitable.  No right to purchase or receive fractional shares shall result from any adjustment in Options, SARs or Stock Awards pursuant to this paragraph 4.2(c).  In case of any such adjustment, Shares subject to the Option, SAR or Stock Award shall be rounded up to the nearest whole Share.

4.3    Limit on Distribution.  Distribution of Shares or other amounts under the Plan shall be subject to the following:

		
	(a)
	Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Company shall have no obligation to deliver any Shares under the Plan or make any other distribution of benefits under the Plan unless such delivery or distribution would comply with all applicable laws (including, without limitation, the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended) and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange or similar entity, and the Committee may impose such restrictions on any Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan as the Committee may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable federal securities laws, under the requirements of any securities exchange or market upon which such Shares are then listed and/or traded, and under any blue sky or state securities laws applicable to such Shares.  In the event that the Committee determines in its discretion that the registration, listing or qualification of the Shares issuable under 

	
		
	2014 EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE PLAN, Amended and Restated March 16, 2016
	Page 5

    

the Plan on any securities exchange or under any applicable law or governmental regulation is necessary as a condition to the issuance of such Shares under an Option, SAR, or Stock Award, such Option, SAR, or Stock Award shall not be exercisable or exercised, settled or converted, in whole or in part unless and until such registration, listing and qualification, and any necessary  consents or approvals have been unconditionally obtained.

		
	(b)
	Distribution of Shares under the Plan may be effected on a non-certificated basis, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or the applicable rule of any securities exchange.

4.4    Tax Withholding.  Before distribution of Shares under the Plan, the Company may require the recipient to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state or local tax withholding requirements or, in the discretion of the Committee, the Company may withhold from the Shares to be delivered and/or otherwise issued, Shares sufficient to satisfy the minimum level of tax withholding requirements.  Whenever under the Plan payments are to be made in cash, such payments may be net of an amount sufficient to satisfy any federal, state or local tax withholding requirements. Neither the Company nor any Related Company shall be liable to a Participant or any other person as to any tax consequence expected, but not realized, by any Participant or other person due to the receipt or exercise of any Award hereunder.

4.5    Reserved Rights.  The Plan does not limit the right of the Company to use available Shares, including authorized but un-issued shares and treasury shares, as the form of payment for compensation, grants or rights earned or due under any other compensation plans or arrangements of the Company or a Related Company, or any compensation plans or arrangements of an entity being acquired by the Company or a Related Company, or an entity in which the Company or a Related Company is acquiring an interest.   

4.6    Dividends and Dividend Equivalents.  No Stock Option or SAR will provide the Participant with the right to receive dividends or dividend equivalent payments.   A Stock Award may provide the Participant with the right to receive dividends or dividend equivalent payments with respect to Shares which may be either paid currently or credited to an account for the Participant, and which may be settled in cash or Shares as determined by the Committee.  Any such settlements, and any such crediting of dividends or dividend equivalents or reinvestment in Shares may be subject to such conditions, restrictions and contingencies as the Committee shall establish, including reinvestment of such credited amounts in Share equivalents. Notwithstanding the foregoing, dividends and dividend equivalents with respect to a Stock Award that vests based on the achievement of Performance Goals (in whole or in part) shall not be paid or credited as described above, except that, in the Committee’s discretion, dividend or dividend equivalents may be accumulated with respect to such performance-based Stock Awards if subject to risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the underlying performance-based Stock Award with respect to which such dividends and dividend equivalents have been accumulated.   

4.7    Settlements; Deferred Delivery.  Awards may be settled through cash payments or the delivery of Shares, or combinations thereof, all subject to such conditions, restrictions and contingencies as the Committee shall determine. The Committee may establish provisions for the 

	
		
	2014 EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE PLAN, Amended and Restated March 16, 2016
	Page 6

    

deferred delivery of Shares upon receipt of a Stock Award with the deferral evidenced by use of “Stock Units” equal in number to the number of Shares whose delivery is so deferred.  A “Stock Unit” is a bookkeeping entry representing an amount equivalent to the Fair Market Value of one Share.  Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company except as otherwise provided by the Committee.  Settlement of Stock Units upon expiration of the deferral period shall be made in Shares or otherwise as determined by the Committee.  The amount of Shares, or other settlement medium, to be so distributed may be increased by an interest factor or by dividend equivalents at the Committee’s discretion and to the extent permitted under the Plan.  Until a Stock Unit is settled, the number of Shares represented by a Stock Unit shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to paragraph 4.2(c).  Unless otherwise specified by the Committee, any deferred delivery of Shares pursuant to an Award shall be settled by the delivery of Shares no later than the 60th day following the date the person to whom such deferred delivery must be made ceases to be an employee of the Company or a Related Company.

4.8    Transferability.  Unless otherwise provided by the Committee, any Option and SAR granted under the Plan, and, until vested, any Stock Award or other Shares-based Award granted under the Plan, shall by its terms be nontransferable by the Participant otherwise than by will, the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a "domestic relations order", as defined in the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act or the rules thereunder, and in no event in exchange for consideration, and shall be exercisable by, or become vested in, during the Participant's lifetime, only by the Participant.  

4.9    Form and Time of Elections.  Unless otherwise specified herein, each election required or permitted to be made by any Participant or other person entitled to benefits under the Plan, and any permitted modification, or revocation thereof, shall be in writing filed with the secretary of the Company at such times, in such form, and subject to such restrictions and limitations, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, as the Committee shall require.

4.10    Award Agreements with Company; Vesting and Acceleration of Vesting of Awards.  At the time of an Award to a participant under the Plan, the Committee may require a Participant to enter into an agreement with the Company (an “Award Agreement”) in a form specified by the Committee, agreeing to the terms and conditions of the Plan and to such additional terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the Plan, as the Committee may, in its sole discretion, prescribe, including, but not limited to, conditions to the vesting or exercisability of an Award, such as continued service to the Company or a Related Company for a specified period of time.  The Committee may prescribe within the Award Agreement such conditions sufficient to accelerate exercisability or vesting of an Option, SAR or Stock Award, either automatically or upon the occurrence of specified events including death, disability, or involuntary termination The Committee may only prescribe a change in control as grounds to accelerate vesting if followed by an involuntary termination of employment, or, in the event Awards are not assumed or converted into new awards upon a change in control.

4.11    Limitation of Implied Rights.

		
	(a)
	Neither a Participant nor any other person shall, by reason of the Plan or any Award Agreement, acquire any right in or title to any assets, funds or property of 

	
		
	2014 EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE PLAN, Amended and Restated March 16, 2016
	Page 7

    

the Company or any Related Company whatsoever, including, without limitation, any specific funds, assets, or other property which the Company or any Related Company, in its sole discretion, may set aside in anticipation of a liability under the Plan.  A Participant shall have only a contractual right to the Shares or amounts, if any, payable under the Plan, unsecured by the assets of the Company or of any Related Company.  Nothing contained in the Plan or any Award Agreement shall constitute a guarantee that the assets of such companies shall be sufficient to pay any benefits to any person.

		
	(b)
	Neither the Plan nor any Award Agreement shall constitute a contract of employment, and selection as a Participant will not give any employee the right to be retained in the employ of the Company or any Related Company, nor any right or claim to any benefit under the Plan, unless such right or claim has specifically accrued under the terms of the Plan or an Award.  Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, no Award under the Plan shall confer upon the holder thereof any right as a stockholder of the Company prior to the date on which the individual fulfills all conditions for receipt of such rights.

4.12    Evidence.  Evidence required of anyone under the Plan may be by certificate, affidavit, document or other information which an officer of the Company acting on it considers pertinent and reliable, and signed, made or presented by the proper party or parties.

4.13    Action by Company or Related Company.  Any action required or permitted to be taken by the Company or any Related Company shall be by resolution of its board of directors, or by action of one or more members of such board (including a committee of such board) who are duly authorized to act for such board, or (except to the extent prohibited by applicable law or applicable rules of any securities exchange) by a duly authorized officer of the Company or such Related Company.

4.14    Gender and Number.   Where the context admits, words in any gender shall include any other gender, words in the singular shall include the plural and the plural shall include the singular.

4.15    Liability for Cash Payments.  Each Related Company shall be liable for payment of cash due under the Plan with respect to any Participant to the extent that such benefits are attributable to the services rendered for that Related Company by such Participant.  Any disputes relating to liability of a Related Company for cash payments shall be resolved by the Committee.

4.16    Non-exclusivity of the Plan.    Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Board of Directors of the Company nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of such Board of Directors or a committee of such Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it or they may deem desirable, including without limitation, the granting of restricted stock, stock options or cash bonuses otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

4.17     Incentive Stock Option Designation.  If an Option is designated by the Committee as an Incentive Stock Option, the Company shall have no liability to Participant or any other person if such Option fails to qualify as an Incentive Stock Option at any time or if it determined to constitute “nonqualified deferred compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code and the terms of such Option do not satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

4.18    Clawback Provisions. Each Award hereunder, which has been issued and delivered to or for the account of Participant, shall be subject to deductions and clawback as may be required under any applicable law, government regulation or securities exchange listing requirement, or any policy adopted by the Company.
