Kennedy (the "Executive"). WHEREAS, RCPC wishes to promote the Executive to the position of President and Chief Executive Officer and to continue the employment of the Executive with the Company, and the Executive wishes to accept continued employment with the Company on the terms and conditions set forth in the Agreement, as amended by this Amendment (capitalized terms used herein without definition being used with the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement). NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the promises and mutual covenants contained herein, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. Section 1.1 of the Agreement, describing the Executive's duties, is hereby amended and restated to read as follows: "1.1 Employment, Duties. RCPC hereby employs the Executive for the Term (as defined in Section 2.1), to render exclusive and full-time services to the Company, in the capacity of president and chief executive officer of Revlon, Inc. ("Revlon") and RCPC, reporting to the Board of Directors of each of Revlon and RCPC, and to perform such other duties consistent with such position (including service as a director or officer of any subsidiary of Revlon, Inc., if elected) as may be assigned by the Board of Directors of Revlon. The Executive's title shall be President and Chief Executive Officer of Revlon and RCPC, or such other titles of at least equivalent level consistent with the Executive's duties from time to time as may be assigned to the Executive by Revlon's Board of Directors. RCPC agrees to use its best efforts to cause the Executive to be elected to the Board of Directors of Revlon and of RCPC, so that the Executive may serve as a member of both Boards throughout the Term." 2. Section 2.1 of the Agreement, regarding the term of Executive's employment, is hereby amended and restated to read as follows: "2.1 The Term. The term of the Executive's employment under this Agreement (the "Term") shall commence as of the date first set forth above (the "Effective Date") and shall end on the later of December 31, 2008 or twenty-four (24) months after RCPC provides to the Executive a notice of non-renewal, unless in either case sooner terminated pursuant to Section 4. Non-extension of the Term shall not be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by RCPC for purposes of Section 4.4. Additionally, the Executive may terminate the Term at any time upon sixty (60) days' prior written notice to the Company and such termination shall not be deemed a breach of this Agreement. During any period that the Executive's employment shall continue following the end of the Term, the Executive shall be deemed an employee at will, provided, however, that the Executive shall be eligible for severance on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Revlon Executive Severance Policy as in effect from time to time (the "Executive Severance Policy"), provided that the Severance Period for the Executive under the Executive Severance Policy shall be 24 months, subject to the terms and conditions of such policy." 3. Sections 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3 of the Agreement, regarding the Executive's salary, bonus eligibility and stock based compensation, are hereby amended and restated to read as follows: 3.1 Salary. As compensation for all services to be rendered pursuant to this Agreement, RCPC agrees to pay the Executive during the Term a base salary, payable in bi-weekly arrears, at the annual rate of not less than $1,300,000 (the "Base Salary"). All payments of Base Salary or other compensation hereunder shall be less such deductions or withholdings as are required by applicable law and regulations. The Base Salary shall be reviewed by Revlon's Board of Directors or Compensation Committee from time to time. In the event that Revlon's Board of Directors or Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, determines to increase the Base Salary, such increased amount shall, from and after the effective date of the increase, constitute "Base Salary" for purposes of this Agreement. 3.2 Bonus. The Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Revlon Executive Bonus Plan as in effect from time to time (or such plan or plans, if any, as may succeed it) (the "Bonus Plan") with maximum bonus eligibility of 150% of Base Salary for significantly over-achieving performance objectives set by the Compensation Committee or its designee and target bonus eligibility of 100% of Base Salary for achieving performance objectives set by the Compensation Committee or its designee, subject to the terms and conditions of such Bonus Plan. In the event that the Executive's employment shall terminate pursuant to Section 4.4 during any calendar year, the Executive's bonus with respect to the year during which such termination occurs shall be prorated for the actual number of days of active employment during such year and such bonus as prorated shall be payable (i) if and to the extent bonuses are payable to executives under the Bonus Plan for that year based upon achievement of the objectives set for that year and not including any discretionary bonus amounts which may otherwise be payable to other executives despite non-achievement of bonus objectives for such year and (ii) on the date bonuses would otherwise be payable to executives under the Bonus Plan. Notwithstanding anything herein or contained in the Bonus Plan to the contrary, in the event that the Executive's employment shall terminate pursuant to Section 4.4 during any calendar year, the Executive shall be entitled to receive his bonus (if not already paid) with respect to the year immediately preceding the year of termination (if bonuses with respect to such year are payable to other executives based upon achievement of bonus objectives and not based upon discretionary amounts which may be paid to other executives despite non-achievement of bonus objectives) as and when such bonuses would otherwise be payable to executives under the Bonus Plan, despite the fact that Executive may not be actively employed on such date of payment. 3.3 Stock-Based Compensation. As promptly as practicable after the Effective Date and subject to the effectiveness of any such amendment of the Amended and Restated Stock Plan, or any plan that may replace it (as from time to time in effect the "Stock Plan"), as may be necessary to authorize additional shares for issuance as restricted shares under the Stock Plan, the Executive shall be recommended to the Compensation Committee or other committee of the Board administering the Stock Plan to receive 250,000 shares of restricted Revlon, Inc. Class A common stock, with such vesting and other terms as determined by the Compensation Committee. In the event of any "Change of Control", as defined on Schedule A, all then unvested stock options and restricted shares held by the Executive shall immediately vest and be fully exercisable. 4. Except as expressly modified by this Amendment, all provisions of the Agreement shall continue in full force and effect. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the provisions of the Agreement or any other plan, policy, contract, arrangement or agreement between Executive and the Company, the terms of this Amendment shall be controlling. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amendment on September 18, 2006. 2 REVLON CONSUMER PRODUCTS CORPORATION By: /s/ Robert K.
