                           REVLON EXECUTIVE BONUS PLAN
                   (AMENDED AND RESTATED AS OF MARCH 1, 2000)

I.       OBJECTIVES

         This Executive Bonus Plan (the "Plan") for Revlon, Inc. ("Revlon") and
         its participating affiliates (collectively, the "Company") is intended
         to provide an annual cash incentive program which will:

         o        reinforce the Company's Strategic Principles and goals and
                  each eligible individual's role in achieving them;

         o        attract, retain, and motivate the executive human resources
                  necessary to operate the Company;

         o        encourage improved profitability, return on investment, and
                  growth of the Company;

         o        enhance the major values of the Company - innovation, quality,
                  growth, teamwork, and satisfied customers and consumers;

         o        reflect the Company's commitment to pay for performance; and

         o        in the case of Covered Employees as defined in Treasury
                  Regulation 1.162-27(c)(2) (or successors thereto), be directly
                  related to the performance results of the Company and
                  contingent upon the achievement of certain corporate goals.

II.      ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

         The Plan shall be administered by a committee (the "Committee")
         appointed by the Board of Directors of Revlon from among its members
         and shall be comprised, unless otherwise determined by the Board of
         Directors, of not less than two members who shall be "outside
         directors" within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
         1.162-27(e)(3) under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of
         1986, as amended (the "Code").

         The Committee shall have all the powers vested in it by the terms of
         this Plan, such powers to include authority (within the limitations
         described herein) to assign Participation Levels (described more fully
         in Section IV), to determine Business Objectives and Personal
         Performance Objectives (described more fully in Section V), to
         determine whether such Objectives have been met, to determine

<PAGE>

         whether an award will be paid out as described in Section VI or
         deferred, and to determine whether an award should be reduced or
         eliminated.

         The Committee shall have full power and authority to construe,
         administer and interpret the Plan and to adopt such rules, regulations,
         agreements, guidelines and instruments for the administration of the
         Plan and for the conduct of its business as the Committee deems
         necessary or advisable. The Committee may at any time amend, modify,
         suspend or terminate such rules, regulations, agreements, guidelines or
         instruments. The Committee's interpretations of the Plan, and all
         actions taken and determinations made by the Committee pursuant to the
         powers vested in it hereunder shall be conclusive and binding on all
         parties concerned, including the Company, Revlon stockholders and any
         participant under the Plan.

         Except as with respect to a Covered Employee, the Committee may
         delegate all or a portion of its administrative duties under the Plan
         to such officers or other employees of the Company as it shall
         determine. With respect to a Covered Employee, the Committee may not
         delegate any of its administrative duties under the Plan.

         The Plan Year shall mean the calendar year.

III.     ELIGIBILITY

         (1) Executives whose positions are classified in salary grades 9 and
         above of the Company's exempt salary program, and (2) general managers
         and above and other key executives of the Company's operations outside
         the United States are eligible for participation in the Plan. No
         eligible executive may be a participant in the Plan unless he or she
         shall have signed Revlon's Employee Agreement as to Confidentiality and
         Non-Competition (as the same may be amended from time to time by the
         Company).

IV.      PARTICIPATION LEVELS/TARGET AWARDS

         All participants will be assigned a Participation Level which will
         determine their Target Award. The Target Award is the Bonus Award,
         expressed as a percent of base salary. Target Awards shall be payable
         provided that certain threshold, target and maximum Objectives
         established by the Committee pursuant to Plan sections VI A and B are
         met. Base salary earned during the Plan Year will be used in
         calculating Bonus Awards under the Plan.

         The maximum award payable with respect to any Plan Year to any
         individual participant is 200% of the Target Award, not to exceed the
         lesser of 100% of base salary earnings or $2,000,000.

         Except where required to be determined by the Committee, Participation
         Levels are generally based on an individual's grade level, reporting
         level, and the impact

                                       2

<PAGE>

         the position has on the organization's results. Each participant's
         Participation Level will be communicated to him/her at the time
         Objectives are set for the Plan Year and any other time during the Plan
         Year, as needed.

V.       BUSINESS AND PERSONAL PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES

         For each Plan Year, the annual Objectives shall be determined by the
         Committee in writing, by resolution of the Committee or other
         appropriate action, not later than 90 days after commencement of such
         Plan Year, and each such Objective shall state, in terms of an
         objective formula or standard, the method for computing the amount of
         compensation payable to the applicable participant if such Objective is
         obtained; provided, however, that if an individual becomes eligible to
         participate during a Plan Year and after such 90 day period, that
         individual's Objectives may be determined by the Committee in writing,
         by resolution of the Committee or other appropriate action, before no
         more than 25% of the period of service to which the Objectives relate
         has elapsed. The Committee shall determine the portion of the Target
         Award assigned to Business Objectives and Personal Objectives.

            A. BUSINESS OBJECTIVES

               The Business Objectives to which a Bonus Award relates ("Business
               Objectives") shall be based on one or more of the following
               objective business performance factors, as it/they apply to the
               Company or a business unit of Revlon and/or an Affiliate(s):
               stock price; fair market value; book value; market share;
               earnings per share; cash flow; return on equity, assets, capital
               or investment; net income; operating profit or income; operating
               income before restructuring charges, plus depreciation and
               amortization other than relating to early extinguishment of debt
               and debt issuance costs; net sales growth; expense targets;
               working capital targets relating to inventory and/or accounts
               receivable; operating margin; productivity improvement; cost or
               expenses; planning accuracy (as measured by comparing planned
               results to actual results); customer satisfaction based on market
               share; and implementation or completion of critical projects or
               processes.

               In the Committee's discretion, Business Objectives (other than
               with respect to Covered Employees) may be developed by each Group
               Head and approved by the Executive Vice President, Chief
               Financial Officer of Revlon and the President and CEO of Revlon,
               subject to final review and approval by the Committee.

               Once established, the Committee may not have discretion to
               increase the amount payable under such Award, provided, however,
               that whether or not a Bonus Award is intended to constitute
               qualified performance based compensation within the meaning of
               Code section 162(m), the Committee

                                       3
<PAGE>

               shall make appropriate adjustments in Business Objectives to
               reflect the impact of extraordinary items not reflected in such
               Objectives. For purposes of the Plan, extraordinary items shall
               be defined as (1) any profit or loss attributable to acquisitions
               or dispositions of stock or assets, (2) any changes in accounting
               standards that may be required or permitted by the Financial
               Accounting Standards Board or adopted by the Company after the
               goal is established, (3) all items of gain, loss or expense for
               the year related to restructuring charges for the Company, (4)
               all items of gain, loss or expense for the year determined to be
               extraordinary or unusual in nature or infrequent in occurrence or
               related to the disposal of a segment of a business, all
               determined in accordance with standards established by Opinion
               No. 30 of the Accounting Principles Board (APB Opinion No. 30),
               (5) all items of gain, loss or expense for the year related to
               discontinued operations that do not qualify as a segment of a
               business as defined in APB Opinion No. 30, and (6) such other
               items as may be prescribed by Code Section 162(m) and the
               Treasury Regulations thereunder as may be in effect from time to
               time, and any amendments, revisions or successor provisions and
               any changes thereto. Notwithstanding the attainment by the
               Covered Employee of the applicable Business Objective(s), the
               Committee has the discretion to reduce, prior to certification of
               such Objective(s), some or all of the Section 162(m) Bonus Award
               that otherwise would be paid.

               Each Bonus Award shall specify the Business Objectives to be
               achieved, a minimum acceptable level of achievement below which
               no payment or award will be made, and a formula of determining
               the amount of any payment or award to be made if performance is
               at or above the minimum acceptable level but falls short of full
               achievement of the Business Objectives.

   B.          PERSONAL PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES

               This portion of the Bonus Award will be based on Personal
               Performance Objectives which are specific to each individual,
               such as human resource management, advertising, account
               penetration, new product development, etc. A maximum of five to
               seven Personal Performance Objectives will be established each
               year with appropriate standards of performance.

               In the Committee's discretion, Personal Performance Objectives
               (other than with respect to Covered Employees) may be developed
               by each participant's Department Head, approved by the Group Head
               and reviewed with the participant.

               In no event shall any portion of a Section 162(m) Bonus Award
               made to a Covered Employee be determined under this subsection B.

                                       4

VI.      ACTUAL BONUS AWARDS

         Actual Bonus Awards will be determined for each participant based on
         the degree to which the participant's Business Objectives and Personal
         Performance Objectives are achieved. The earned award for the
         achievement of Business Objectives will be added to the earned award
         for the achievement of Personal Performance Objectives to determine a
         participant's total Bonus Award earned under the Plan, subject to the
         maximums provided for in Section IV.

         A.    BUSINESS OBJECTIVES

               Bonuses earned under this portion of the Plan will be based on
               achievement against each Business Objective's target in
               accordance with its assigned weight. Proportionate awards will be
               earned for achievement between the threshold, target, and maximum
               Objectives.

         B.    PERSONAL PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES

               Bonuses earned under this portion of the Plan will be based on
               each participant's performance against Personal Performance
               Objectives in accordance with its assigned weight. Proportionate
               awards will be earned for achievement between the threshold,
               target, and maximum Objectives. Based on criteria established at
               the beginning of the year by the President and CEO of Revlon,
               participants may earn up to 200% of their personal performance
               target award.

VII.     SECTION 162(m) BONUS AWARDS

         The Committee may designate any particular Bonus Award as being a
         "Section 162(m) Bonus Award"; provided that any Bonus Award so
         designated will be subject to the following requirements,
         notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary:

                  1. No Section 162(m) Bonus Award may be paid unless and until
                  the stockholders of the Company have approved the Plan in a
                  manner which complies with the stockholder approval
                  requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code.

                  2. A Section 162(m) Bonus Award may be made by a minimum of
                  two members of the Committee, each of whom must be an "outside
                  director" (within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Code).

                  3. The performance goals to which a Section 162(m) Bonus Award
                  is subject must be based on Business Objectives in accordance
                  with plan section V.A. Such Business Objectives, and the Bonus
                  Award payable on

                                       5
<PAGE>

                  attainment thereof, must be established by the Committee
                  within the time limits required in order for the Section
                  162(m) Bonus Award to qualify for the performance-based
                  compensation exception to Section 162(m) of the Code.

                  4. No Section 162(m) Bonus Award may be paid until the
                  Committee has certified the appropriate level of attainment of
                  the applicable Business Objectives.

                  5. The maximum amount of a Section 162(m) Bonus Award is
                  $2,000,000.

VIII.    CORPORATE/GROUP BUSINESS OBJECTIVES

         Without limiting in any way the Committee's discretion to establish
         Bonus Awards, it is expected that targeted Business Objectives for
         participants should include Corporate/Group/Division performance
         factors to the extent applicable, in order to foster each executive's
         commitment to teamwork and sharing in the Company's overall success.

IX.      MISCELLANEOUS

         In the event of a change of assignment or transfer prior to October 31
         of the Plan year, the participant's Bonus Award will be calculated for
         each position on a pro-rated basis. Similarly, an executive who is
         newly hired or who joins the Plan after the start of the Plan year, and
         prior to October 31, will be eligible for a pro-rated Bonus Award based
         on the percentage of the Plan year actually worked while a participant.

         Bonus Awards will be distributed on or about March 31 following the
         applicable Plan Year. Bonus Awards will not be paid to a participant
         who does not remain actively employed by the Company through the date
         Bonus Awards are distributed except that, in the sole discretion of the
         President and CEO of Revlon:

         (a) an executive whose employment terminates due to death, disability,
         or retirement at any time after the start of a Plan year, or

         (b) an executive whose employment is terminated by the Company
         otherwise than for "good reason" (as defined in the Revlon Executive
         Severance Policy) or other like cause at any time after June 30 of a
         Plan year, may receive a Bonus Award, pro-rated if appropriate, based
         on the number of months of active employment during the Plan year. The
         aforedescribed exception shall not be applicable to Section 162(m)
         Bonus Awards.

         The Plan shall be unfunded. The Company shall not be required to
         establish any special segregation of assets to assure the payment of
         Bonus Awards.

                                       6
<PAGE>

         The Plan is not intended to be subject to the Employee Retirement
         Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA").

         The Company shall have the right to deduct from Bonus Awards paid any
         taxes or other amounts required by law to be withheld.

         Participation in the Plan shall not confer upon any participant any
         rights to continue in the employ of the Company, limit in any way a
         participant's right or the right of the Company to terminate a
         participant's employment at any time, or confer upon any participant
         any claim to receive a Bonus Award other than as provided in the Plan,
         and no participant's rights under the Plan may be assigned, attached,
         pledged or alienated by operation of law or otherwise.

         The Committee reserves the right to revise or terminate the Plan at any
         time during or after a Plan performance period. The President and CEO
         of Revlon, at his discretion, may also make exceptions to this Plan,
         other than in the case of Covered Employees.

Agreement, a "trade or business secret, process, method or means, or any other
confidential information" shall include any information designated as
confidential by the Company's Board and as to which Employee receives notice,
provided that Employee shall be obligated to confer periodically with and assist

<PAGE>

specifically permitted in writing by the Company's Board, any document or other
object containing or reflecting any such confidential information. Employee
recognizes that all such documents and objects, whether developed by him or by
someone else, will be the sole exclusive property of the Company. Upon
termination of his employment hereunder, Employee shall forthwith deliver to the
Company all such confidential information, including without limitation all
lists of customers, correspondence, accounts, records and any other documents or
property made or held by him or under his control in relation to the business or
affairs of the Company or its subsidiaries or affiliates, and no copy of any
such confidential information shall be retained by him.

     4.04 Non-Competition Obligations. During the Term and, other than in the
case of the death or disability of the Employee, upon any termination of the
employment of the Employee (including a termination by reason of either party's
election not to extend the Term as provided in Section 2.01), the Employee shall
not, during the Non-Competition Period (as defined below), directly or
indirectly, whether as an employee consultant, independent contractor, partner,
joint venture or otherwise, (A) engage in any business a - activities relating
to catastrophe modeling, or underwriting catastrophe risks, on behalf of any
person that competes, to a material extent, with the Company or its affiliates,
or engage in other business activities reasonably determined by the Company's
board to be competitive, to a material extent, with any substantial type of kind
of business activities conducted by the Company or any of its affiliates at the
time of termination; (B) on behalf of any person or entity engaged in business
activities competitive with the business activities of the Company or any of its
divisions, subsidiaries or affiliates, solicit or induce, or in any manner
attempt to solicit or induce, any person employed by, or as agent of, the
Company or any of its divisions, subsidiaries or affiliates to terminate such
person's contract of employment or agency, as the case may be, with the Company
or with any such division, subsidiary or affiliate or (C) divert, or attempt to
divert, any person, concern, or entity from doing business with the Company or
any of its divisions, subsidiaries or affiliates, nor will he attempt to induce
any such person, concern or entity to cease being a customer or supplier of the
Company or any of its divisions, subsidiaries or affiliates. The preceding
sentence notwithstanding, in the case of (i) any termination of employment by
the Company or the Employee, and(ii) an election by the Company or the Employee
not to extend the term as provided in Section 2.01, the Company may elect within
30 days after such termination, to waive the Employee's non-competition
obligations in which case it shall not be required to make payments to the
Employee during the Non-Competition Period, as provided in section 5.05(a).
Non-Competition Period means the period of one year following the date of
termination of employment, or such shorter period as the Company may elect
within 30 days after such termination.

     4.05 Remedies. Employee acknowledges that the Company's remedy at law for a
breach by him of the provisions of this Article IV will be inadequate.
Accordingly, in the event of a breach or threatened breach by Employee of any
provision of this Article IV, the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief
in addition to any other remedy it may have. If any of the provisions of, or
covenants contained in, this Article IV are hereafter construed to be invalid or
unenforceable in any jurisdiction, the same shall not affect the remainder of
the provisions or the enforceability thereof in any

                                       4
<PAGE>

other jurisdiction, which shall be given full effect, without regard to the
invalidity or unenforceability in such other jurisdiction. If any of the
provisions of, or covenants contained in, this Article IV are held to be
unenforceable in any jurisdiction because of the duration or geographical scope
thereof, the parties agree that the court making such determination shall have
the power to reduce the duration or geographical scope of such provision or
covenant and, in its reduced form, such provision or covenant shall be
enforceable; provided, however, that the determination of such court shall not
affect the enforceability of this Article IV in any other jurisdiction.

                                   ARTICLE V.

                                   TERMINATION

(d) the conviction of Employee of a felony, or (e) Employee's material breach of

provided Employee has received prior written notice of such breach.

     5.02 Death. In the event Employee dies during the Term, the Employee's
employment shall automatically terminate, such termination to be effective on
the date of Employee's death.

     5.03 Disability. In the event that Employee suffers a disability which

employment, such termination to be effective upon the giving of notice to
Employee in accordance with Section 6.03 of this Agreement.

     termination of Employee's employment for any reason other than the
     Employee's death or disability (including a termination by reason of either
     party's election not to extend the Term as provided in Section 2.01), the
     Company shall continue to pay Employee during the NonCompetition Period his
     then current base salary (except that, in the event of a

                                       5
<PAGE>

     Termination without Cause, or in the event that the Company elects not to
     extend the Term as provided in Section 2.01, the continued monthly payments
     shall be based on base salary plus a pro rata amount (proportionate to the
     duration of the Non-Competition Period) of the highest regular bonus during
     the prior 3 years). Such amounts shall be payable in equal monthly
     installments commencing on the date which is one month after the date of
     such termination and continuing for the term of the Non-Competition Period.
     The preceding sentence notwithstanding, in the event of a termination of
     employment described in the penultimate sentence of Section 4.04 of this
     Agreement, if the Company elects to waive the Employee's noncompetition
     obligation within 30 days after the date of such termination, the Company
     shall not be required to make the payments described in the preceding
     sentence.

          (b) Awards. Employee's rights with respect to Awards, upon any
     termination of his employment with the Company, shall be governed

     any time by 10 days' written notice to the Company. Employee shall have no

     his employment, except and to the extent Sections 4.03, 4.04 or 4.05 shall
     apply.

     5.06 Termination Following a Change in Control. In the event that a Change

Executive, within fifteen days following the date of such termination, a lump
sum cash amount equal to two times the sum of:

          (i) Executive's annual base salary at the highest rate in effect
     during the Term; and

          (ii) the highest regular annual bonus paid or payable to the Executive
     over the preceding three fiscal years (excluding any extraordinary or
     non-recurring bonus).

     For purposes of this Agreement, "Good Reason" means

          (i) any action taken or failed to be taken by the Company or any of
     its officers which, without Executive's prior written consent, changes
     Executive's position (including titles), authority, duties or
     responsibilities from those in effect prior to the Change in Control, or
     reduces Executive's ability to carry out such duties and responsibilities;

          (ii) any failure by the Company to comply with any of the provisions
     of Section 3 of this Agreement, other than an insubstantial or inadvertent

                                       6

merger, consolidation or other similar transaction (a "Corporate Event") if, as
a result of such Corporate Event, (a) substantially all of the individuals and
entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Equity
Securities immediately prior to such Corporate Event beneficially own, directly
or indirectly, securities representing more than 50% of the value and voting
power of the then outstanding equity securities of the corporation resulting
from such Corporate Event (including a corporation which, as result of such
transaction, owns Holdings or all or substantially all of Holding's assets
either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same
proportions as their ownership immediately prior to such Corporate Even, of the

the Investors or any Investor Affiliate, or (2) any corporation resulting from
such Corporate Event, beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, securities

equity securities of the corporation resulting from such Corporate Event except
as specifically provided in this Section 5.06, the effect of a termination of
Executive's employment following a Change in Control shall be governed by the
provisions of Section of 5.05.
