senior unsecured multiple-draw term loan (the "TERM LOAN") pursuant to an
agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, and in
connection therewith, to enter into this Agreement;
WHEREAS, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the investments
contemplated by this Agreement will constitute the financial support
contemplated by the Investor's letter dated November 12, 2001 to provide up to
$40 million of additional financial support to the Company;
WHEREAS, the Company will effect a rights offering (the "RIGHTS
OFFERING") to distribute, on a pro rata basis and at no charge, transferable

OFFERING RECORD DATE") to be set by the Board of Directors, to purchase shares
("RIGHTS SHARES") of Class A Common Stock;
WHEREAS, each holder of Rights will be entitled to purchase its pro
rata number of Rights Shares (the "BASIC SUBSCRIPTION PRIVILEGE") at a price per
Rights Share equal to the greater of (x) $2.30 and (y) 80% of the closing price
per share of the Class A Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on
the Rights Offering Record Date (either (x) or (y), as appropriately adjusted
for any stock split, combination, reorganization, recapitalization, stock
dividend, stock distribution or similar event, the "SUBSCRIPTION PRICE"), such
that the aggregate number of Rights Shares to be offered in the Rights Offering
multiplied by the Subscription Price, will equal $50 million (the "AGGREGATE
OFFERING AMOUNT"); provided that such number may be adjusted in an equitable
manner to avoid fractional Rights and/or Rights Shares and to ensure that the
gross proceeds from the Rights Offering equal $50 million;
WHEREAS, each holder of Rights, other than the Investor, who exercises
in full its Basic Subscription Privilege will be entitled, on a pro rata basis,
to subscribe for additional Rights Shares at the Subscription Price (the
"OVER-SUBSCRIPTION PRIVILEGE"), to the extent that other holders of Rights do
not exercise all of their Rights in the Basic Subscription Privilege;
WHEREAS, in order to facilitate the Rights Offering and to enhance the
Over-subscription Privilege of the other holders of Class A Common Stock, the
Investor is
willing, as set forth herein, to purchase, upon consummation of the Rights
Offering and at the Subscription Price, such number of shares of Class A Common
Stock as equals all of the Rights Shares that are not purchased by other holders
of Rights in the Rights Offering as part of their Basic Subscription Privilege
and their Over-Subscription Privilege;
WHEREAS, in addition to the Term Loan and prior to the consummation of
the Rights Offering, subject to RCPC having fully drawn the Term Loan, the
Investor has agreed to purchase shares of Series C Preferred for an aggregate
purchase price of up to $50 million (the "ADVANCE PURCHASE") from time to time,
at the request of the Company;
WHEREAS, following the consummation of the Rights Offering, subject to
RCPC having fully drawn the Term Loan and the Company having exhausted the
Advance Purchase (or, alternatively, the Company having consummated the Rights
Offering and redeemed any outstanding shares of Series C Preferred), the
Investor will make available to RCPC a senior unsecured supplemental line of
credit providing RCPC with up to $40 million during 2003, increasing up to $65
million during 2004 (the "SUPPLEMENTAL LINE OF CREDIT") pursuant to an agreement
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B; and
WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of the Company (the "BOARD OF
DIRECTORS"), pursuant to the recommendation of a special committee of
independent directors of the Company established on December 17, 2002 (the

consummation of the Rights Offering in accordance with its terms.
2.4 Registration Rights. The Company hereby acknowledges to the

Agreement (as amended, the "REGISTRATION RIGHTS AGREEMENT") dated as of March 5,
1996, between Revlon Worldwide Corporation and the Company, as amended by the
First Amendment to the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of July 31, 2001,
between REV Holdings Inc. (formerly known as Revlon Worldwide Corporation and
now a limited liability company known as REV Holdings LLC) and the Company;
provided, that, the Investor shall execute a joinder to the Registration Rights
Agreement upon consummation of the Rights Offering (after giving effect to
compliance by the Investor with its obligations under Section 2.3 hereof).
5
2.5 The Rights Offering.
(a) As promptly as practicable after the date of this
Agreement, the Company will prepare and file with the SEC a
registration statement (including each amendment and supplement
thereto, the "REGISTRATION STATEMENT") on Form S-3 (or, if Form S-3 is
not then available to the Company, on such form of registration
statement as is then available to effect a registration of securities),
covering the issuance of the Rights and the Rights Shares. The Company
will not permit any securities other than the Rights and the Rights
Shares to be included in the Registration Statement. The Registration
Statement (and each amendment or supplement thereto, and each request
for acceleration of effectiveness thereof) will be provided to the
Investor and its counsel prior to its filing with or other submission
to the SEC. The Registration Statement will comply in all material
respects with the provisions of applicable federal securities laws. The
Company promptly will correct any information provided by it for use in
the Registration Statement if, and to the extent, that such information
becomes false or misleading in any material respect, and the Company
will take all steps necessary to cause the Registration Statement, as
so corrected, to be filed with the SEC and, upon its effectiveness, to
be disseminated to the distributees of the Rights, in each case as and
to the extent required by applicable federal securities laws. The
Investor and its counsel will be given a reasonable opportunity to
review and comment upon the Registration Statement in each instance
before it is filed with the SEC. In addition, the Company will provide
the Investor and its counsel with any written comments or other written
communications that the Company or its counsel receives from time to
time from the SEC or its staff with respect to the Registration
Statement promptly after the receipt of such comments or other
communications. The Company will use its commercially reasonable best
efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be filed pursuant to
this Section 2.5(a) and to be declared effective by the SEC as soon as
possible after the Registration Statement is filed with the SEC.
(b) Promptly following the effective date of the Registration
Statement, the Company will commence the Rights Offering. In the Rights
Offering, the Company will distribute, on a pro rata basis and at no
charge, Rights to each holder of record of Common Stock as of the
Rights Offering Record Date. In accordance with the terms of the Rights
Offering, each such Right shall be transferable. The Rights will
entitle the holder to purchase, at the election of the holder thereof,
its pro rata number of Rights Shares at the Subscription Price;
provided, that, the Subscription Price multiplied by the aggregate
number of Rights Shares offered shall not exceed the Aggregate Offering
Amount; provided that such number may be adjusted in an equitable
manner to avoid fractional Rights and/or Rights Shares and to ensure
that the gross proceeds of the Rights Offering equal $50 million. The
Rights Offering will remain open for at least thirty (30) days. The
Rights shall expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the day
following such thirtieth (30th) day, except as such expiration date or
time may be extended by the Company or otherwise as may be required by
applicable law or NYSE listing rule.
6
(c) Each holder of Rights, other than the Investor, who
exercises in full its Basic Subscription Privilege will be entitled to
subscribe for additional Rights Shares at the Subscription Price to the
extent that other holders of Rights do not exercise all of their Rights
in the Basic Subscription Privilege. If the number of Rights Shares
remaining after the exercise of all Basic Subscription Privileges is
not sufficient to satisfy all Over-subscription Privileges, the Rights
holders who exercised their Basic Subscription Privileges in full,
other than the Investor, will be allocated Rights Shares pro rata and
in proportion to the number of Rights Shares purchased through the
Basic Subscription Privilege. If the pro rata allocation exceeds the
number of Rights Shares requested on the subscription certificate, then
each Rights holder only will receive the number of Rights Shares
requested, and the remaining Rights Shares from such Rights holder's
pro rata allocation will be divided among other Rights holders
exercising their Over-subscription Privileges. If the pro rata
allocation is less than the number of Rights Shares requested on the
subscription certificate, then the excess funds paid by that Rights
holder as the Subscription Price for the Rights Shares not issued will
be returned to such Rights holder without interest or deduction.
(d) The closing of the purchase of the Over-subscription
Privilege by each Rights holder will occur at the time, for the
Subscription Price, in the manner, and on the terms and conditions of
the Rights Offering as will be set forth in the Registration Statement.
(e) The Company will pay all expenses associated with the
Registration Statement and the Rights Offering, including, without
limitation, filing and printing fees, fees and expenses of any
subscription and information agents, counsel and accounting fees and
expenses, costs associated with clearing the Rights Shares for sale
under applicable state securities laws, listing fees and the Investor's
reasonable fees in connection with the registration, including, without
limitation, the reasonable attorneys' fees of counsel to the Investor.
(f) The Company shall, within three (3) Business Days of
consummating the Rights Offering (after giving effect to compliance by
the Investor with its obligations under Section 2.3 hereof), contribute
the net proceeds of the Rights Offering to RCPC in the form of a
capital contribution or in such other form as RCPC and the Company may
agree and as may be permitted under the Bank Credit Agreement.
2.6 Advance Purchase of Preferred Stock Pending Rights Offering.
(a) Prior to the consummation of the Rights Offering and
satisfaction by the Investor of its obligations pursuant to Sections
2.1 and 2.3 hereof, and subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the
Investor agrees to make one or more Advance Purchases from time to
time, at a purchase price of $100,000 per share of Series C Preferred,
in an aggregate amount of up to $50 million; provided, that no Advance
Purchase shall be made unless, as of the Advance Purchase Date, (i) the
Adjusted Multi-Currency Commitment has been
7
substantially drawn after giving effect to any Bank Revolving Loans to
be made, and any Bank Letters of Credit to be issued, under the Bank
Credit Agreement substantially concurrently with such Advance Purchase,
(ii) the Available Term Loan Commitment is zero, after giving effect to
any loans to be made under the Term Loan agreement substantially
concurrently with such Advance Purchase, (iii) all approvals necessary
for the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this
Agreement, including the issuance of the Series C Preferred, shall have
been obtained, (iv) the Company shall have performed each of its
obligations hereunder required to be performed by it at or prior to the
applicable Advance Purchase Date and the representations and warranties
of the Company contained in this Agreement shall be true and correct in
all material respects at and as of the applicable Advance Purchase Date
as if made at and as of such applicable Advance Purchase Date, and (v)
there shall not have occurred and be occurring an Event of Default (as
such term is defined in the Term Loan agreement), either before or
after giving effect to such Advance Purchase, under the Term Loan.
(b) The Company may request that the Investor purchase, and
the Investor shall purchase, on any Business Day, shares of Series C
Preferred; provided, that the Company shall deliver to the Investor a
written notice (an "ADVANCE PURCHASE NOTICE") which must (i) specify
the date on which such Advance Purchase is to be made (the "ADVANCE
PURCHASE DATE"), the aggregate purchase price for the shares of Series
C Preferred to be purchased by the Investor on such Advance Purchase
Date (the "ADVANCE PURCHASE AMOUNT"), and the bank account and other
pertinent wire transfer instructions of the Company to which the
Advance Purchase Amount is to be deposited by the Investor (the
"COMPANY'S BANK ACCOUNT"), (ii) certify that all applicable conditions
to such Advance Purchase hereunder have been satisfied and (iii) be
received by the Investor prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, no
less than three (3) Business Days prior to such Advance Purchase Date.
(c) On each Advance Purchase Date set forth in an Advance
Purchase Notice, the Investor will make an Advance Purchase equal to
the lesser of (i) the Advance Purchase Amount set forth in such Advance
Purchase Notice, and (ii) $50 million less the aggregate purchase price
of all previous Advance Purchases, by making the proceeds thereof
available to the Company in immediately available funds in Dollars not
later than 4:00 p.m., New York City time, on such Advance Purchase Date
to the Company's Bank Account.
(d) At the closing of each Advance Purchase, the Company shall
deliver to the Investor one or more certificates evidencing the Series
C Preferred, in exchange for payment therefor, purchased by the
Investor at such closing (in such denomination as shall be specified in
writing by the Investor) each of which shall be registered in the name
of the Investor or its designee, against delivery to the Company of the
Advance Purchase Amount (or such lesser amount pursuant to Section
2.6(c)).
8
(e) The net proceeds of each Advance Purchase shall be
contributed to RCPC in the form of a capital contribution or in such
other form as the Company and RCPC may agree and as may be permitted by
the Bank Credit Agreement.
2.7 Offset Against the Rights Offering. In lieu of paying cash to
satisfy its obligations under Sections 2.1 and 2.3 hereof (together, the
"INVESTOR OBLIGATIONS"), at the consummation of the Rights Offering, the
Investor may elect, by written notice delivered to the Company, to satisfy all
or part of the Investor Obligations by offsetting such obligations against the
Investor's right to receive from the Company the cash redemption proceeds of
$100,000 per share (the "REDEMPTION PRICE") with respect to the Series C
Preferred (such shares being mandatorily redeemable upon the consummation of the
Rights Offering) the Investor then holds, if any, and if such notice is given,
(i) the Company shall credit an amount equal to the aggregate Redemption Price
specified in the notice for all shares of Series C Preferred held by the
Investor, if any, against, and reduce accordingly, the Investor Obligations to
the extent specified in such notice and (ii) to the extent the aggregate
Redemption Price payable to the Investor exceeds the amount of Investor
Obligations offset as specified in such notice, the Company shall pay cash in
the amount of such excess to the Investor upon the consummation of the Rights
Offering.

listing of such shares whenever the Class A Common Stock is listed on any such
exchange.
5.2 Cooperation with the Rights Offering. The Investor will cooperate
with the Company and use its commercially reasonable best efforts and take all
commercially reasonable actions in order to facilitate the successful
consummation of the Rights Offering. In particular, the Company is undertaking
the Rights Offering in reliance on the Investor's commitment under Section 2.3
hereof to provide the Company with funds up to the Aggregate Offering Amount as
contemplated by this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 2.1 and
2.3 hereof, subject to the provisions of Section 2.6 hereof. The Company will

take all commercially reasonable actions in order to facilitate the successful
consummation of the Rights Offering.
5.3 File the Certificate of Designations. Prior to the Company's
initial request pursuant to Section 2.6(b), the Company shall properly file a
certificate of designations, powers, preferences and rights with the Secretary
of State of the State of Delaware, which will contain substantially the terms
set forth in the term sheet attached hereto as Exhibit C and which shall be in
form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Investor.

of any party in exercising any right, power or privilege pursuant to this
Agreement will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any waiver on the part of
any party of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement, nor will
any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege pursuant to this
Agreement, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any
other right, power or privilege pursuant to this Agreement. The rights and
