Background
Revlon Consumer Products Corporation (“Products Corporation” and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is
a wholly-owned operating subsidiary of Revlon, Inc., which is a direct and indirect majority-owned subsidiary of
MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc. (“MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings” and together with certain of its affiliates other
than the Company, “MacAndrews & Forbes”), a corporation wholly-owned by Ronald O. Perelman.
The Company’s vision is to provide glamour, excitement and innovation to consumers through high-quality products
at affordable prices. The Company operates in a single segment and manufactures, markets and sells an extensive array of
cosmetics, women’s hair color, beauty tools, fragrances, skincare, anti-perspirants/deodorants and personal care products.
The Company is one of the world’s leading cosmetics companies in the mass retail channel (as hereinafter defined). The
Company believes that its global brand name recognition, product quality and marketing experience have enabled it to
create one of the strongest consumer brand franchises in the world.
The Company’s products are sold worldwide and marketed under such brand names as Revlon, including the Revlon
ColorStay, Revlon Super Lustrous and Revlon Age Defying franchises, as well as the Almay brand, including the Almay

beauty tools; Charlie and Jean Naté in fragrances; Ultima II and Gatineau in skincare; and Mitchum in personal care
products.

perfumeries, outside the U.S. The Company also sells beauty products to U.S. military exchanges and commissaries and has
a licensing business pursuant to which the Company licenses certain of its key brand names to third parties for
complimentary beauty-related products and accessories.
The Company was founded by Charles Revson, who revolutionized the cosmetics industry by introducing nail enamels
matched to lipsticks in fashion colors over 75 years ago. Today, the Company has leading market positions in a number of
its principal product categories in the U.S. mass retail channel, including color cosmetics (face, lip, eye and nail categories),
women’s hair color, beauty tools and anti-perspirants/deodorants. The Company also has leading market positions in
several product categories in certain foreign countries, including Australia, Canada and South Africa.

We continue to focus on our key growth drivers, including: innovative, high-quality, consumer-preferred new
products; effective integrated brand communication; appropriate levels of advertising and promotion; and superb

Significant Transactions Recently Completed
November 2008 — Extension of the maturity of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan
Pursuant to a November 2008 amendment, the maturity date of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term
Loan (as hereinafter defined) was extended from August 2009 to the earlier of (1) the date that Revlon, Inc. issues equity
with gross proceeds of at least $107 million, which proceeds would be used to repay the $107 million remaining aggregate
principal balance of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan, or (2) August 1, 2010.
September 2008 — 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split
In September 2008, Revlon, Inc. effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A and Class B common
stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). As a result of the Reverse Stock Split, each ten shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A and
Class B common stock issued and outstanding at the end of September 15, 2008 were automatically combined into one share
of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, respectively.
July 2008 — Sale of Bozzano and Partial Paydown of MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan
In July 2008, the Company consummated the disposition of its non-core Bozzano business, a men’s hair care and
shaving line of products, and certain other non-core brands, including Juvena and Aquamarine, which were sold by the
Company only in the Brazilian market (the “Bozzano Sale Transaction”). The transaction was effected through the sale of
the Company’s indirect Brazilian subsidiary, Ceil Comércio E Distribuidora Ltda. (“Ceil”), to Hypermarcas S.A., a Brazilian
publicly-traded, consumer products corporation. The purchase price was approximately $107 million, including
approximately $3 million in cash on Ceil’s balance sheet on the closing date. Net proceeds, after the payment of taxes and
transaction costs, were approximately $95 million. In September 2008, Products Corporation used $63 million of the net
proceeds from the Bozzano Sale Transaction to repay $63 million in aggregate principal amount of the MacAndrews &
Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan, leaving $107 million in aggregate principal amount remaining outstanding under
such loan.
April 2008 and September 2007 — Interest Rate Swap Transactions
In April 2008, Products Corporation entered into a $150 million two-year floating-to-fixed interest rate swap transaction
related to indebtedness under its 2006 Term Loan Facility (as hereinafter defined) (the “2008 Interest Rate Swap”), intended
to reduce its exposure to interest rate volatility. Following the execution of this interest rate swap transaction and the
$150 million two-year floating-to-fixed interest rate swap transaction that Products Corporation entered into in September
2007 (the “2007 Interest Rate Swap” and together with the 2008 Interest Rate Swap, the “Interest Rate Swaps”),
approximately 60% of the Company’s total long-term debt is at fixed interest rates and approximately 40% is at floating
interest rates.
February 2008 — Refinancing of the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes
On February 1, 2008, Products Corporation repaid in full the $167.4 million remaining aggregate principal amount of its
85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes (as hereinafter defined), which matured on such date. (See “Financial Condition, Liquidity
and Capital Resources — 2008 Repayment of the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes with the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan” regarding Products Corporation’s full repayment of the balance of the 85/8% Senior Subordinated
Notes upon maturity on February 1, 2008).

Recent Developments
Senior Management Changes
On February 25, 2009, Revlon, Inc. announced that the Board of Directors of each of Revlon, Inc. and Products
Corporation elected Alan T. Ennis as a Director of Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation and to also serve as President,
Revlon International, effective March 1, 2009, in addition to continuing to serve in his role as Executive Vice President, Chief
Financial Officer and Treasurer. Mr. Ennis has served as the Company’s Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer
from November 2006, and also as Treasurer from June 2008. In addition to his finance responsibilities as Chief Financial
Officer, Mr. Ennis will have responsibility for the general management of all of the Company’s International operations.
Recent Debt Reduction Transactions
In February 2009, Products Corporation used excess cash flow generated in 2008 to reduce its long-term debt by
prepaying $16.6 million in aggregate principal amount of term loan indebtedness outstanding under its 2006 Term Loan
Facility (as hereinafter defined). Such prepayment satisfied Products Corporation’s requirement under the 2006 Term Loan
Agreement (as hereinafter defined) to prepay term loan indebtedness with 50% of its annual “excess cash flow” (as defined
under such agreement) within 100 days after its fiscal year end. This prepayment fully offsets Products Corporation’s
required quarterly term loan amortization payments of $2.1 million per quarter that would otherwise have been due on
April 15, 2009, July 15, 2009, October 15, 2009, January 15, 2010, April 15, 2010, July 15, 2010, October 15, 2010 and
$1.9 million of the amortization payment otherwise due on January 15, 2011. After giving effect to such prepayment, at
February 13, 2009, the aggregate principal amount outstanding under Products Corporation’s 2006 Term Loan Facility was
approximately $815 million.

New Product Development and Research and Development
The Company believes that it is an industry leader in the development of innovative and technologically-advanced
cosmetics and beauty products. The Company’s marketing and research and development groups identify consumer needs
and shifts in consumer preferences in order to develop new products, tailor line extensions and promotions and redesign or
reformulate existing products to satisfy such needs or preferences. The Company’s research and development group is
comprised of departments specialized in the technologies critical to the Company’s various product categories. The
Company has a cross-functional product development process, including a rigorous process for the continuous
development and evaluation of new product concepts, formed in 2007 and led by senior executives in marketing, sales,
product development, operations, law and finance, which has improved the Company’s new product commercialization
process and created a comprehensive, long-term portfolio strategy. This new process is intended to optimize the
Company’s ability to regularly bring to market its innovative new product offerings and to manage the Company’s product
portfolio.
The Company operates an extensive cosmetics research and development facility in Edison, New Jersey. The scientists
at the Edison facility are responsible for all of the Company’s new product research and development worldwide, performing
research for new products, ideas, concepts and packaging. The research and development group at the Edison facility also
performs extensive safety and quality testing on the Company’s products, including toxicology, microbiology and package
testing. Additionally, quality control testing is performed at each of the Company’s manufacturing facilities.
As of December 31, 2008, the Company employed approximately 160 people in its research and development activities,
including specialists in pharmacology, toxicology, chemistry, microbiology, engineering, biology, dermatology and quality
control. In 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company spent $24.3 million, $24.4 million and $24.4 million, respectively, on research
and development activities.
Manufacturing and Related Operations and Raw Materials
During 2008, the Company’s cosmetics and/or personal care products were produced at the Company’s facilities in
North Carolina, Venezuela, France and South Africa and at third-party facilities around the world. The Company also
manufactured products at a facility in Mexico which it sold and closed in December 2008.
The Company continually reviews its manufacturing needs against its manufacturing capacities to identify
opportunities to reduce costs and operate more efficiently. The Company purchases raw materials and components
throughout the world, and continuously pursues reductions in cost of goods through the global sourcing of raw materials
and components from qualified vendors, utilizing its purchasing capacity designed to maximize cost savings. The
Company’s global sourcing strategy for materials and components from accredited vendors is also designed to ensure the
quality and the continuity of supply of the raw materials and components. The Company
6
Table of Contents
believes that alternate sources of raw materials and components exist and does not anticipate any significant shortages of,
or difficulty in obtaining, such materials.
Distribution
The Company’s products are sold in more than 100 countries across six continents. The Company’s worldwide sales
forces had approximately 290 people as of December 31, 2008. In addition, the Company utilizes sales representatives and
independent distributors to serve certain markets and related distribution channels.
United States. Net sales in the U.S. accounted for approximately 58% of the Company’s 2008 net sales, a majority of
which were made in the mass retail channel. The Company also sells a broad range of consumer products to
U.S. Government military exchanges and commissaries. The Company licenses its trademarks to select manufacturers for
complimentary beauty-related products and accessories that the Company believes have the potential to extend the
Company’s brand names and image. As of December 31, 2008, eleven (11) licenses were in effect relating to seventeen
(17) product categories, which are marketed principally in the mass-market distribution channel. Pursuant to such licenses,
the Company retains strict control over product design and development, product quality, advertising and the use of its
trademarks. These licensing arrangements offer opportunities for the Company to generate revenues and cash flow through
royalties and renewal fees, some of which have been prepaid.
As part of the Company’s strategy to increase the retail consumption of its products, the Company’s retail
merchandisers stock and maintain the Company’s point-of-sale wall displays intended to ensure that high-selling SKUs are
in stock and to ensure the optimal presentation of the Company’s products in retail outlets.
International. Net sales outside the U.S. accounted for approximately 42% of the Company’s 2008 net sales. The five
largest countries in terms of these sales were Canada, South Africa, Australia, U.K and Venezuela, which together
accounted for approximately 23% of the Company’s 2008 consolidated net sales. The Company distributes its products
through drug stores and chemist shops, hypermarkets, mass volume retailers, general merchandise stores, department
stores and specialty stores such as perfumeries outside the U.S. At December 31, 2008, the Company actively sold its
products through wholly-owned subsidiaries established in 14 countries outside of the U.S. and through a large number of
distributors and licensees elsewhere around the world.
Customers
The Company’s principal customers include large mass volume retailers and chain drug stores, including such well-
known retailers as Wal-Mart, Target, Kmart, Walgreens, Rite Aid, CVS and Longs (CVS and Longs merged in the fourth
quarter of 2008) in the U.S., Shoppers DrugMart in Canada, A.S. Watson & Co. retail chains in Asia Pacific and Europe, and
Boots in the United Kingdom. Wal-Mart and its affiliates worldwide accounted for approximately 23% of the Company’s
2008 consolidated net sales. As is customary in the consumer products industry, none of the Company’s customers is
under an obligation to continue purchasing products from the Company in the future. The Company expects that Wal-Mart
and a small number of other customers will, in the aggregate, continue to account for a large portion of the Company’s net
sales. (See Item 1A. Risk Factors — “The Company depends on a limited number of customers for a large portion of its net
sales and the loss of one or more of these customers could reduce the Company’s net sales and have a material adverse
affect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations”).
Competition
The consumer products business is highly competitive. The Company competes primarily on the basis of:
• developing quality products with innovative performance features, shades, finishes, components and packaging;
• educating consumers on the brands’ product benefits;
• anticipating and responding to changing consumer demands in a timely manner, including the timing of new
product introductions and line extensions;
• offering attractively priced products relative to the product benefits provided;
• maintaining favorable brand recognition;
7
Table of Contents
• generating competitive margins and inventory turns for its retail customers by providing relevant products and
executing effective pricing, incentive and promotion programs;
• ensuring product availability through effective planning and replenishment collaboration with retailers;
• providing strong and effective advertising, marketing, promotion and merchandising support;
• maintaining an effective sales force; and
• obtaining sufficient retail floor space, optimal in-store positioning and effective presentation of its products at
retail.
The Company competes in selected product categories against a number of multi-national manufacturers. In addition to
products sold in the mass retail channel and demonstrator-assisted channels, the Company’s products also compete with
similar products sold in prestige and department stores, television shopping, door-to-door, specialty stores, the internet,
perfumeries and other distribution outlets. Certain of the Company’s competitors include, among others, L’Oréal S.A., The
Procter & Gamble Company, Avon Products, Inc. and The Estée Lauder Companies Inc. (See Item 1A. Risk Factors —
“Competition in the consumer products business could materially adversely affect the Company’s net sales and its share of
the mass retail channel and could have an adverse affect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of
operations”).

Item 1A. Risk Factors
In addition to the other information in this report, investors should consider carefully the following risk factors when
evaluating the Company’s business.
Revlon, Inc. is a holding company with no business operations of its own and is dependent on its subsidiaries to pay certain
expenses and dividends. In addition, shares of the capital stock of Products Corporation, Revlon, Inc.’s wholly-owned
operating subsidiary, are pledged by Revlon, Inc. to secure its obligations under the 2006 Credit Agreements.
Revlon, Inc. is a holding company with no business operations of its own. Revlon, Inc.’s only material asset is all of
the outstanding capital stock of Products Corporation, Revlon, Inc.’s wholly-owned operating subsidiary, through which
Revlon, Inc. conducts its business operations. As such, Revlon, Inc.’s net income (loss) has historically consisted
predominantly of its equity in the net income (loss) of Products Corporation, which for 2008, 2007 and 2006 was
approximately $65.8 million, $(9.0) million and $(244.5) million, respectively, which excluded approximately $7.7 million,
$7.0 million and $6.6 million, respectively, in expenses primarily related to Revlon, Inc. being a public holding company.
Revlon, Inc. is dependent on the earnings and cash flow of, and dividends and distributions from, Products Corporation to
pay Revlon, Inc.’s expenses incidental to being a public holding company. Products Corporation may not generate
sufficient cash flow to pay dividends or distribute funds to Revlon, Inc. because, for example, Products Corporation may
not generate sufficient cash or net income; state laws may restrict or prohibit Products Corporation from issuing dividends
or making distributions unless Products Corporation has sufficient surplus or net profits, which Products Corporation may
not have; or because contractual restrictions, including negative covenants contained in Products Corporation’s various
debt instruments, may prohibit or limit such dividends or distributions.
The terms of the 2006 Credit Agreements, the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement and
the indenture governing Products Corporation’s outstanding 91/2% Senior Notes generally restrict Products Corporation
from paying dividends or making distributions, except that Products Corporation is permitted to pay dividends and make
distributions to Revlon, Inc., among other things, to enable Revlon, Inc. to make certain payments and pay expenses
incidental to being a public holding company.
All of the shares of the capital stock of Products Corporation held by Revlon, Inc. are pledged to secure Revlon, Inc.’s
guarantee of Products Corporation’s obligations under the 2006 Credit Agreements. A foreclosure upon the shares of
Products Corporation’s common stock would result in Revlon, Inc. no longer holding its only material asset and would have
a material adverse effect on the holders of Revlon, Inc.’s Common Stock and would be a change of control under Products
Corporation’s other debt instruments.

Products Corporation’s substantial indebtedness could adversely affect the Company’s operations and flexibility and
Products Corporation’s ability to service its debt.
Products Corporation has a substantial amount of outstanding indebtedness. As of December 31, 2008, the Company’s
total indebtedness was $1,331.4 million, primarily including $833.7 million aggregate principal amount outstanding under the
2006 Term Loan Facility, $390.0 million in aggregate principal face amount outstanding of Products Corporation’s
91/2% Senior Notes, $107.0 million aggregate principal amount outstanding under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan and nil under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility. (See “Recent Developments”). The Company has
a history of net losses prior to 2008 and, in addition, if it is unable to achieve sustained profitability in future periods, it
could adversely affect the Company’s operations and Products Corporation’s ability to service its debt.
The Company is subject to the risks normally associated with substantial indebtedness, including the risk that the
Company’s operating revenues will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest, and the risk that
Products Corporation will be unable to refinance existing indebtedness when it becomes due or that the terms of any such
refinancing will be less favorable than the current terms of such indebtedness. Products Corporation’s substantial
indebtedness could also:
• limit the Company’s ability to fund (including by obtaining additional financing) the costs and expenses of the
execution of the Company’s business strategy, future working capital, capital expenditures, advertising or
promotional expenses, new product development costs, purchases and reconfigurations of wall displays,
acquisitions, investments, restructuring programs and other general corporate requirements;
• require the Company to dedicate a substantial portion of its cash flow from operations to payments on Products
Corporation’s indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of the Company’s cash flow for the execution of the
Company’s business strategy and for other general corporate purposes;
• place the Company at a competitive disadvantage compared to its competitors that have less debt;
• limit the Company’s flexibility in responding to changes in its business and the industry in which it operates; and
• make the Company more vulnerable in the event of adverse economic conditions or a downturn in its business.
Although agreements governing Products Corporation’s indebtedness, including the 2006 Credit Agreements, the
indenture governing Products Corporation’s outstanding 91/2% Senior Notes and the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan Agreement, limit Products Corporation’s ability to borrow additional money, under certain
circumstances Products Corporation is allowed to borrow a significant amount of additional money, some of which, in
certain circumstances and subject to certain limitations, could be secured indebtedness.
Products Corporation’s ability to pay the principal of its indebtedness depends on many factors.
The MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan expires on the earlier of (1) the date that Revlon, Inc.
issues equity with gross proceeds of at least $107 million, which proceeds would be contributed to Products Corporation
and used to repay the $107 million remaining aggregate principal balance of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan, or (2) August 1, 2010. The 91/2% Senior Notes mature in April 2011 and the 2006 Credit
Agreements mature in January 2012. Products Corporation currently anticipates that, in order to pay the principal amount of
its outstanding indebtedness upon the occurrence of any event of default, to repurchase its 91/2% Senior Notes if a change
of control occurs or in the event that Products Corporation’s cash flows from operations are insufficient to allow it to pay
the principal amount of its indebtedness at maturity, the Company may be required to refinance Products Corporation’s
indebtedness, seek to sell assets or operations, seek to sell additional debt securities of Products Corporation or seek
additional capital contributions or loans from MacAndrews & Forbes, Revlon, Inc. or from the Company’s other affiliates or
third parties. The Company may be unable to take any of these actions, because of a variety of commercial or market factors
or constraints in Products Corporation’s debt instruments, including, for example, market conditions being unfavorable for
an equity or debt issuance, additional capital contributions or loans not being available from affiliates and/or third parties,
or
10
Table of Contents
that the transactions may not be permitted under the terms of the various debt instruments then in effect, such as due to
restrictions on the incurrence of debt, incurrence of liens, asset dispositions and/or related party transactions.
Revlon, Inc. is a public holding company and has no business operations of its own, and Revlon, Inc.’s only material
asset is the capital stock of Products Corporation. None of the Company’s affiliates are required to make any capital
contributions, loans or other payments to Products Corporation regarding its obligations on its indebtedness. Products
Corporation may not be able to pay the principal amount of its indebtedness if the Company took any of the above actions
because, under certain circumstances, the indenture governing Products Corporation’s outstanding 91/2% Senior Notes or
any of its other debt instruments (including the 2006 Credit Agreements and the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan Agreement) or the debt instruments of Products Corporation’s subsidiaries then in effect may not
permit the Company to take such actions. (See “Restrictions and covenants in Products Corporation’s debt agreements limit
its ability to take certain actions and impose consequences in the event of failure to comply”).
Additionally, the economic conditions during the latter part of 2008 and in early 2009 and the recent volatility in the
financial markets have contributed to a substantial tightening of the credit markets and a reduction in credit availability,
including lending by financial institutions. If the tightening of the credit markets and reduction in credit availability continue
for an extended period, the Company may be unable to refinance or replace Products Corporation’s outstanding
indebtedness at or prior to their respective maturity dates, which would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
Restrictions and covenants in Products Corporation’s debt agreements limit its ability to take certain actions and impose
consequences in the event of failure to comply.
Agreements governing Products Corporation’s indebtedness, including the 2006 Credit Agreements, the indenture
governing Products Corporation’s outstanding 91/2% Senior Notes and the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated
Term Loan Agreement, contain a number of significant restrictions and covenants that limit Products Corporation’s ability
and its subsidiaries’ ability, among other things (subject in each case to limited exceptions), to:
• borrow money;
• use assets as security in other borrowings or transactions;
• pay dividends on stock or purchase stock;
• sell assets;
• enter into certain transactions with affiliates; and
• make certain investments.
In addition, the 2006 Credit Agreements contain financial covenants limiting Products Corporation’s senior secured
debt-to-EBITDA ratio (in the case of the 2006 Term Loan Agreement) and, under certain circumstances, requiring Products
Corporation to maintain a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (in the case of the 2006 Revolving Credit
Agreement). These covenants affect Products Corporation’s operating flexibility by, among other things, restricting its
ability to incur expenses and indebtedness that could be used to fund the costs of executing the Company’s business
strategy and to grow the Company’s business, as well as to fund general corporate purposes.
The breach of certain covenants contained in the 2006 Credit Agreements would permit Products Corporation’s lenders
to accelerate amounts outstanding under the 2006 Credit Agreements, which would in turn constitute an event of default
under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement and the indenture governing Products
Corporation’s outstanding 91/2% Senior Notes, if the amount accelerated exceeds $25.0 million and such default remains
uncured for 10 days following notice from MacAndrews & Forbes with respect to the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan Agreement or the trustee or holders of the applicable percentage under the 91/2% Senior Notes
indenture.
In addition, holders of Products Corporation’s outstanding 91/2% Senior Notes may require Products Corporation to
repurchase their respective notes in the event of a change of control under the 91/2% Senior Notes indenture.

(See “Products Corporation’s ability to pay the principal of its indebtedness depends on many factors”). Products
Corporation may not have sufficient funds at the time of any such breach of any such covenant or change of control to
repay in full the borrowings under the 2006 Credit Agreements, the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan
Agreement or to repurchase or redeem its outstanding 91/2% Senior Notes.
Events beyond the Company’s control, such as decreased consumer spending in response to weak economic
conditions or weakness in the cosmetics category in the mass retail channel; adverse changes in currency; decreased sales
of the Company’s products as a result of increased competitive activities by the Company’s competitors; changes in
consumer purchasing habits, including with respect to shopping channels; retailer inventory management; retailer space
reconfigurations or reductions in retailer display space; less than anticipated results from the Company’s existing or new
products or from its advertising and/or marketing plans; or if the Company’s expenses, including, without limitation, for
advertising and promotions or for returns related to any reduction of retail space, product discontinuances or otherwise,
exceed the anticipated level of expenses, could impair the Company’s operating performance, which could affect Products
Corporation’s ability and that of its subsidiaries to comply with the terms of Products Corporation’s debt instruments.
Under such circumstances, Products Corporation and its subsidiaries may be unable to comply with the provisions of
Products Corporation’s debt instruments, including the financial covenants in the 2006 Credit Agreements. If Products
Corporation is unable to satisfy such covenants or other provisions at any future time, Products Corporation would need to
seek an amendment or waiver of such financial covenants or other provisions. The respective lenders under the 2006 Credit
Agreements may not consent to any amendment or waiver requests that Products Corporation may make in the future, and,
if they do consent, they may not do so on terms which are favorable to it and/or Revlon, Inc.
In the event that Products Corporation was unable to obtain any such waiver or amendment and it was not able to
refinance or repay its debt instruments, Products Corporation’s inability to meet the financial covenants or other provisions
of the 2006 Credit Agreements would constitute an event of default under its debt instruments, including the 2006 Credit
Agreements, which would permit the bank lenders to accelerate the 2006 Credit Agreements, which in turn would constitute
an event of default under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement and the indenture
governing Products Corporation’s outstanding 91/2% Senior Notes, if the amount accelerated exceeds $25.0 million and
such default remains uncured for 10 days following notice from MacAndrews & Forbes with respect to the MacAndrews &
Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement or the trustee under the 91/2% Senior Notes indenture.
Products Corporation’s assets and/or cash flow and/or that of Products Corporation’s subsidiaries may not be
sufficient to fully repay borrowings under its outstanding debt instruments, either upon maturity or if accelerated upon an
event of default, and if Products Corporation was required to repurchase its outstanding 91/2% Senior Notes or repay the
MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan upon a change of control, Products Corporation may be unable to
refinance or restructure the payments on such debt. Further, if Products Corporation was unable to repay, refinance or
restructure its indebtedness under the 2006 Credit Agreements, the lenders could proceed against the collateral securing
that indebtedness.
Limits on Products Corporation’s borrowing capacity under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility may affect the Company’s
ability to finance its operations.
While the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility currently provides for up to $160.0 million of commitments, Products
Corporation’s ability to borrow funds under this facility is limited by a borrowing base determined relative to the value, from
time to time, of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory in the U.S. and the U.K. and eligible real property and
equipment in the U.S.
If the value of these eligible assets is not sufficient to support the full $160.0 million borrowing base, Products
Corporation will not have full access to the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, but rather could have access to a lesser amount
determined by the borrowing base. Further, if Products Corporation borrows funds under this facility, subsequent changes
in the value or eligibility of the assets within the borrowing base could cause Products Corporation to be required to pay
down the amounts outstanding so that there is no amount outstanding in excess of the then-existing borrowing base.
12
Table of Contents
Products Corporation’s ability to make borrowings under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility is also conditioned upon
its compliance with other covenants in the 2006 Revolving Credit Agreement, including a fixed charge coverage ratio that
applies when the “excess borrowing base” (representing the difference between (1) the borrowing base under the 2006
Revolving Credit Facility and (2) the amounts outstanding under such facility) is less than $20.0 million. Because of these
limitations, Products Corporation may not always be able to meet its cash requirements with funds borrowed under the 2006
Revolving Credit Facility, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or
results of operations.
At January 31, 2009, the 2006 Term Loan Facility was fully drawn, and the Company had a liquidity position of
approximately $184.0 million, consisting of cash and cash equivalents (net of any outstanding checks) of $55.1 million, as
well as $128.9 million in available borrowings under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, based upon the calculated borrowing
base less approximately $13.1 million of outstanding letters of credit. The 2006 Revolving Credit Facility was undrawn at
such date.
The 2006 Revolving Credit Facility is syndicated to a group of banks and financial institutions. Each bank is
responsible to lend its portion of the $160 million commitment if and when Products Corporation seeks to draw under the
2006 Revolving Credit Facility. The lenders may assign their commitments to other banks and financial institutions in certain
cases without prior notice to Products Corporation. If a lender is unable to meet its lending commitment, then the other
lenders under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility have the right, but not the obligation, to lend additional funds to make up
for the defaulting lender’s commitment, if any. While Products Corporation has never had any of its lenders under the 2006
Revolving Credit Facility or any predecessor revolving credit facility fail to fulfill their lending commitment, economic
conditions in late 2008 and early 2009 and the volatility in the financial markets have impacted the liquidity and financial
condition of certain banks and financial institutions. Based on information available to the Company, the Company has no
reason to believe that any of the lenders under Products Corporation’s 2006 Revolving Credit Facility would be unable to
fulfill their commitments under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility as of December 31, 2008. However, if one or more lenders
under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility were unable to fulfill their commitment to lend, such inability would impact the
Company’s liquidity and, depending upon the amount involved and the Company’s liquidity requirements, could have an
adverse affect on the Company’s ability to fund its operations, which could have a material adverse effect on the
Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
A substantial portion of Products Corporation’s indebtedness is subject to floating interest rates.
A substantial portion of Products Corporation’s indebtedness is subject to floating interest rates, which makes the
Company more vulnerable in the event of adverse economic conditions, increases in prevailing interest rates or a downturn
in the Company’s business. As of December 31, 2008, $534.2 million of Products Corporation’s total indebtedness, or
approximately 40% of Products Corporation’s total indebtedness, was subject to floating interest rates, after giving effect to
the Interest Rate Swaps.
Under the 2006 Term Loan Facility, loans bear interest, at Products Corporation’s option, at either the Eurodollar Rate
plus 4.0% per annum, which is based upon LIBOR, or the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the 2006 Term Loan
Agreement) plus 3.0% per annum, which Alternate Base Rate is based on the greater of Citibank, N.A.’s announced base
rate and the U.S. federal funds rate plus 0.5%; provided that pursuant to the 2007 Interest Rate Swap transaction that
Products Corporation entered into in September 2007 with Citibank, N.A. acting as the counterparty, the LIBOR portion of
the interest rate on $150.0 million of outstanding indebtedness under the 2006 Term Loan Facility was effectively fixed at
4.692% through September 17, 2009 (which, based upon the 4.0% applicable margin, effectively fixed the interest rate on
such notional amount at 8.692% for the 2-year term of the 2007 Interest Rate Swap) and pursuant to the 2008 Interest Rate
Swap transaction that Products Corporation entered into in April 2008 with Citibank, N.A. acting as the counterparty, the
LIBOR portion of the interest rate on $150.0 million of outstanding indebtedness under the 2006 Term Loan Facility was
effectively fixed at 2.66% through April 16, 2010 (which, based upon the 4.0% applicable margin, effectively fixed the interest
rate on such notional amount at 6.66% for the 2-year term of the 2008 Interest Rate Swap). Under the terms of the Interest
Rate Swaps, Products Corporation is required to pay to the counterparty a quarterly fixed interest rate of 4.692% on the
$150.0 million notional amount under the 2007 Interest Rate Swap, which commenced in December 2007, and a quarterly fixed
interest rate of 2.66% on the $150.0 million notional amount under the 2008 Interest Rate Swap,
13
Table of Contents
which commenced in June 2008 while receiving under each of the Interest Rate Swaps variable interest rate payments from
the counterparty equal to the three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR. Borrowings under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility (other
than loans in foreign currencies) bear interest at a rate equal to, at Products Corporation’s option, either (i) the Eurodollar
Rate plus 2.0% per annum or (ii) the Alternate Base Rate (as defined in the 2006 Revolving Credit Agreement) plus 1.0% per
annum. Loans in foreign currencies bear interest in certain limited circumstances, or if mutually acceptable to Products
Corporation and the relevant foreign lenders, at the Local Rate, and otherwise at the Eurocurrency Rate (as each such term
is defined in the 2006 Revolving Credit Agreement), in each case plus 2.0%.
If any of LIBOR, the base rate, the U.S. federal funds rate or such equivalent local currency rate increases, the
Company’s debt service costs will increase to the extent that Products Corporation has elected such rates for its
outstanding loans.
Based on the amounts outstanding under the 2006 Credit Agreements and other short-term borrowings (which, in the
aggregate, is Products Corporation’s only debt currently subject to floating interest rates and after giving effect to the
Interest Rate Swaps) as of December 31, 2008, an increase in LIBOR of 1% would increase the Company’s annual interest
expense by approximately $5.4 million. Increased debt service costs would adversely affect the Company’s cash flow. While
Products Corporation may enter into other interest hedging contracts, the 2006 Credit Agreements limit the notional amount
that may be outstanding on such transactions at any time to $300 million, which amount is currently outstanding. Products
Corporation may not be able to enter into additional hedging contracts on a cost-effective basis, any additional hedging
transactions it might enter into may not achieve their intended purpose and shifts in interest rates may have a material
adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
The Company depends on its Oxford, North Carolina facility for production of a substantial portion of its products.
Disruptions to this facility, or at other third party facilities at which the Company’s products are manufactured, could
affect the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
The Company produces a substantial portion of its products at its Oxford, North Carolina facility. Significant
unscheduled downtime at this facility, or at other third party facilities at which the Company’s products are manufactured,
whether due to equipment breakdowns, power failures, natural disasters, weather conditions hampering delivery schedules
or other disruptions, including those caused by transitioning manufacturing from other facilities to the Company’s Oxford,
North Carolina facility, or any other cause could adversely affect the Company’s ability to provide products to its
customers, which could affect the Company’s sales, business, financial condition and/or results of operations. Additionally,
if product sales exceed forecasts or production, the Company could, from time to time, not have an adequate supply of
products to meet customer demands, which could cause the Company to lose sales.
The Company’s new product introductions may not be as successful as the Company anticipates, which could have a
material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
The Company has implemented a rigorous process for the continuous development and evaluation of new product
concepts, formed in 2007 and led by senior executives in marketing, sales, product development, operations, law and
finance, which has improved the Company’s new product commercialization process and created a comprehensive portfolio
strategy. This new process is intended to optimize the Company’s ability to regularly bring to market its innovative new
product offerings and to manage the Company’s product portfolio. Each new product launch, including those resulting from
this new product development process, carries risks, as well as the possibility of unexpected consequences, including:
• the acceptance of the new product launches by, and sales of such new products to, the Company’s retail
customers may not be as high as the Company anticipates;
• the Company’s advertising and marketing strategies for its new products may be less effective than planned and
may fail to effectively reach the targeted consumer base or engender the desired consumption;
• the rate of purchases by the Company’s consumers may not be as high as the Company anticipates;
• the Company’s wall displays to showcase the new products may fail to achieve their intended effects;
14
Table of Contents
• the Company may experience out-of-stocks and/or product returns exceeding its expectations as a result of its new
product launches or reductions in retail display space;
• the Company may incur costs exceeding its expectations as a result of the continued development and launch of
new products, including, for example, advertising and promotional expenses, sales return expenses or other costs
related to launching new products;
• the Company may experience a decrease in sales of certain of the Company’s existing products as a result of newly-
launched products;
• the Company’s product pricing strategies for new product launches may not be accepted by its retail customers
and/or its consumers, which may result in the Company’s sales being less than it anticipates; and
• any delays or difficulties impacting the Company’s ability, or the ability of the Company’s suppliers to timely
manufacture, distribute and ship products, displays or display walls in connection with launching new products,
such as due to inclement weather conditions or those delays or difficulties discussed under “The Company
depends on its Oxford, North Carolina facility for production of a substantial portion of its products. Disruptions to
this facility, or at other third party facilities at which the Company’s products are manufactured, could affect the
Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations” could affect the Company’s ability to ship
and deliver products to meet its retail customers’ reset deadlines.
Each of the risks referred to above could delay or impede the Company’s ability to achieve its sales objectives, which
could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
The Company’s ability to service its debt and meet its cash requirements depends on many factors, including achieving
anticipated levels of revenue and expenses. If such revenue or expense levels prove to be other than as anticipated, the
Company may be unable to meet its cash requirements or Products Corporation may be unable to meet the requirements
of the financial covenants under the 2006 Credit Agreements, which could have a material adverse effect on the
The Company currently expects that operating revenues, cash on hand, and funds available for borrowing under the
2006 Revolving Credit Agreement and other permitted lines of credit will be sufficient to enable the Company to cover its
operating expenses for 2009, including cash requirements in connection with the execution of the Company’s business
strategy, purchases of permanent wall displays, capital expenditure requirements, payments in connection with the
Company’s restructuring programs, severance not otherwise included in the Company’s restructuring programs, debt
service payments and costs and regularly scheduled pension and post-retirement plan contributions and benefit payments.
If the Company’s anticipated level of revenue is not achieved, however, because of, for example, decreased consumer
spending in response to weak economic conditions or weakness in the cosmetics category in the mass retail channel;
adverse changes in currency; decreased sales of the Company’s products as a result of increased competitive activities by
the Company’s competitors; changes in consumer purchasing habits, including with respect to shopping channels; retailer
inventory management; retailer space reconfigurations or reductions in retailer display space; less than anticipated results
from the Company’s existing or new products or from its advertising and/or marketing plans; or if the Company’s expenses,
including, without limitation, for advertising and promotions or for returns related to any reduction of retail space, product
discontinuances or otherwise, exceed the anticipated level of expenses, the Company’s current sources of funds may be
insufficient to meet its cash requirements. In addition, such developments, if significant, could reduce the Company’s
revenues and could adversely affect Products Corporation’s ability to comply with certain financial covenants under the
2006 Credit Agreements.
If operating revenues, cash on hand and funds available for borrowing are insufficient to cover the Company’s
expenses or are insufficient to enable Products Corporation to comply with the financial covenants under the 2006 Credit
Agreements, the Company could be required to adopt one or more alternatives listed below:
• delaying the implementation of or revising certain aspects of the Company’s business strategy;
• reducing or delaying purchases of wall displays or advertising or promotional expenses;
15
Table of Contents
• reducing or delaying capital spending;

• delaying, reducing or revising the Company’s restructuring plans;
• refinancing Products Corporation’s indebtedness;
• selling assets or operations;
• seeking additional capital contributions and/or loans from MacAndrews & Forbes, Revlon, Inc., the Company’s
other affiliates and/or third parties;
• selling additional debt securities of Products Corporation; or
• reducing other discretionary spending.
If the Company is required to take any of these actions, it could have a material adverse effect on its business, financial
condition and/or results of operations. In addition, the Company may be unable to take any of these actions, because of a
variety of commercial or market factors or constraints in Products Corporation’s debt instruments, including, for example,
market conditions being unfavorable for an equity or debt issuance, additional capital contributions or loans not being
available from affiliates and/or third parties, or that the transactions may not be permitted under the terms of the various
debt instruments then in effect, such as due to restrictions on the incurrence of debt, incurrence of liens, asset dispositions
and/or related party transactions.
Such actions, if ever taken, may not enable the Company to satisfy its cash requirements or enable Products
Corporation to comply with the financial covenants under the 2006 Credit Agreements if the actions do not result in
sufficient savings or generate a sufficient amount of additional capital, as the case may be. See also, “— Restrictions and
covenants in Products Corporation’s debt agreements limit its ability to take certain actions and impose consequences in
the event of failure to comply” which discusses, among other things, the consequences of noncompliance with Products
Corporation’s credit agreement covenants.
Economic conditions and the volatility in the financial markets could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
business, financial condition and/or results of operations or on the financial condition of its customers and suppliers.
The economic conditions in late 2008 and early 2009 and the volatility in the financial markets in late 2008 and early
2009, both in the U.S. and in many other countries where the Company operates, have contributed and may continue to
contribute to higher unemployment levels, decreased consumer spending, reduced credit availability and/or declining
business and consumer confidence. Such conditions could have an impact on consumer purchases and/or retail customer
purchases of the Company’s products, which could result in a reduction of sales, operating income and cash flows. This
could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
Additionally, disruptions in the credit and other financial markets and economic conditions could, among other things,
impair the financial condition of one or more of the Company’s customers or suppliers, thereby increasing the risk of
customer bad debts or non-performance by suppliers.
The Company depends on a limited number of customers for a large portion of its net sales and the loss of one or more of
these customers could reduce the Company’s net sales and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business,
financial condition and/or results of operations.
For 2008, 2007 and 2006, Wal-Mart, Inc. accounted for approximately 23%, 24% and 23%, respectively, of the
Company’s worldwide net sales. The Company expects that for 2009 and future periods, Wal-Mart and a small number of
other customers will, in the aggregate, continue to account for a large portion of the Company’s net sales. These customers
have demanded, and may continue to demand, increased service and other accomodations. The Company may be affected
by changes in the policies and demands of its retail customers relating to service levels, inventory de-stocking or limitations
on access to wall display space. As is customary in the consumer products industry, none of the Company’s customers is
under an obligation to continue purchasing products from the Company in the future.
The loss of Wal-Mart or one or more of the Company’s other customers that may account for a significant portion of
the Company’s net sales, or any significant decrease in sales to these customers, including as a result of
16

retailer consolidation, or any significant decrease in the Company’s retail display space in any of these customers’ stores,
could reduce the Company’s net sales and therefore could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business,
financial condition and/or results of operations.
Declines in the financial markets will result in increased pension expense and increased cash contributions to the
Company’s pension plans.
Declines in the U.S. and global financial markets in late 2008 resulted in significant declines on pension plan assets for
2008, which will result in increased pension expense for 2009 and increased cash contributions to the Company’s pension
plans for 2010 and beyond. Future volatility in the financial markets may further affect the Company’s return on pension
plan assets for 2009 and in subsequent years. Such volatility could also affect the discount rate used to value the
Company’s year-end pension benefit obligations. One or more of these factors, individually or taken together, could further
impact required cash contributions to the Company’s pension plans and pension expense in 2010 and beyond. Any one or
more of these conditions could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results
of operations.
The Company may be unable to increase its sales through the Company’s primary distribution channels, which could have
a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
In the U.S., mass volume retailers and chain drug and food stores currently are the primary distribution channels for the
Company’s products. Additionally, other channels, including prestige and department stores, television shopping, door-to-
door, specialty stores, the internet, perfumeries and other distribution outlets, combined account for a significant amount of
sales of cosmetics and beauty care products. A decrease in consumer demand in the U.S. mass retail channel for color
cosmetics, retailer inventory management, a reduction in retailer display space and/or a change in consumers’ purchasing
habits, such as by buying more cosmetics and beauty care products in channels in which the Company does not currently
compete, could impact the sales of its products through these distribution channels, which could reduce the Company’s net
sales and therefore have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of
operations.
Competition in the cosmetics and beauty care products business could materially adversely affect the Company’s net sales
and its share of the mass retail channel and could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition
and/or results of operations.
The cosmetics and beauty care products business is highly competitive. The Company competes primarily on the basis
of:
• developing quality products with innovative performance features, shades, finishes and packaging;
• educating consumers on the Company’s product benefits;
• anticipating and responding to changing consumer demands in a timely manner, including the timing of new
product introductions and line extensions;
• offering attractively priced products, relative to the product benefits provided;
• maintaining favorable brand recognition;
• generating competitive margins and inventory turns for the Company’s retail customers by providing relevant
products and executing effective pricing, incentive and promotion programs;
• ensuring product availability through effective planning and replenishment collaboration with retailers;
• providing strong and effective advertising, marketing, promotion and merchandising support;
• maintaining an effective sales force; and
• obtaining and retaining sufficient retail display space, optimal in-store positioning and effective presentation of the
Company’s products at retail.

An increase in the amount of competition that the Company faces could have a material adverse effect on its share of
the mass retail channel and revenues. The Company experienced significant declines in its share in color cosmetics in the
U.S. mass retail channel from approximately 32% in the second quarter of 1998 to approximately 22% in the second quarter
of 2002. In 2008, the Company achieved a combined U.S. color cosmetics share in the U.S. mass retail channel of 18.6% (with
the Revlon brand registering a U.S. mass retail channel share of 12.7% for 2008, compared to 12.9% for 2007, and the Almay
brand registering a U.S. mass retail channel share of 5.9% for 2008, compared to 6.0% for 2007). It is possible that declines in
the Company’s share of the mass retail channel could occur in the future.
In addition, the Company competes against a number of multi-national manufacturers, some of which are larger and
have substantially greater resources than the Company, and which may therefore have the ability to spend more
aggressively on advertising and marketing and have more flexibility to respond to changing business and economic
conditions than the Company. In addition to products sold in the mass retail channel, the Company’s products also
compete with similar products sold through other channels, including prestige and department stores, television shopping,
door-to-door, specialty stores, the internet, perfumeries and other distribution outlets.
Additionally, the Company’s major retail customers periodically assess the allocation of retail display space among
competitors and in the course of doing so could elect to reduce the display space allocated to the Company’s products, if,
for example, the Company’s marketing strategies for its new and/or existing products are less effective than planned, fail to
effectively reach the targeted consumer base or engender the desired consumption; and/or the rate of purchases by the
Company’s consumers are not as high as the Company anticipates. Any significant loss of display space could have an
adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
The Company’s foreign operations are subject to a variety of social, political and economic risks and have been, and are
expected to continue to be affected by foreign currency fluctuation, which could adversely affect the results of the
Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations and the value of its foreign assets.
As of December 31, 2008, the Company had operations based in 14 foreign countries and its products were sold
throughout the world. The Company is exposed to the risk of changes in social, political and economic conditions inherent
in operating in foreign countries, including those in Asia, Eastern Europe, Latin America (including Venezuela) and South
Africa, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Such changes
include changes in the laws and policies that govern foreign investment in countries where the Company has operations,
changes in consumer purchasing habits including as to shopping channels, as well as, to a lesser extent, changes in
U.S. laws and regulations relating to foreign trade and investment.
The Company’s net sales outside of the U.S. for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006 were approximately
42%, 41% and 41% of the Company’s total consolidated net sales, respectively. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange
rates have affected the Company’s results of operations and the value of its foreign assets in 2008, and may continue to
affect the Company’s results of operations and the value of its foreign assets, which in turn may adversely affect the
Company’s reported net sales and earnings and the comparability of period-to-period results of operations.
Products Corporation enters into foreign currency forward exchange contracts to hedge certain cash flows
denominated in foreign currency. The foreign currency forward exchange contracts are entered into primarily for the
purpose of hedging anticipated inventory purchases and certain intercompany payments denominated in foreign currencies
and generally have maturities of less than one year. At December 31, 2008, the notional amount of Products Corporation’s
foreign currency forward exchange contracts was $41.0 million. The foreign currency forward exchange contracts that
Products Corporation enters into may not adequately protect against foreign currency fluctuations.
Terrorist attacks, acts of war or military actions may adversely affect the markets in which the Company operates and the
On September 11, 2001, the U.S. was the target of terrorist attacks of unprecedented scope. These attacks contributed
to major instability in the U.S. and other financial markets and reduced consumer confidence. These terrorist attacks, as well
as terrorist attacks such as those that have occurred in Madrid, Spain and London, England, military responses to terrorist
attacks and future developments, or other military actions, such as the military actions
18

in Iraq, may adversely affect prevailing economic conditions, resulting in reduced consumer spending and reduced demand
for the Company’s products. These developments subject the Company’s worldwide operations to increased risks and,
depending on their magnitude, could reduce net sales and therefore could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s
business, financial condition and/or results of operations.
The Company’s products are subject to federal, state and international regulations that could adversely affect the
The Company is subject to regulation by the FTC and the FDA, in the U.S., as well as various other federal, state, local
and foreign regulatory authorities, including in the EU, Canada and other countries in which the Company operates. The
Company’s Oxford, North Carolina manufacturing facility is registered with the FDA as a drug manufacturing establishment,
permitting the manufacture of cosmetics that contain over-the-counter drug ingredients, such as sunscreens and anti-
perspirants. Regulations in the U.S., the EU, Canada and in other countries in which the Company operates that are
designed to protect consumers or the environment have an increasing influence on the Company’s product claims,
ingredients and packaging. To the extent regulatory changes occur in the future, they could require the Company to
reformulate or discontinue certain of its products or revise its product packaging or labeling, any of which could result in,
among other things, increased costs to the Company, delays in product launches, product returns or recalls and lower net
sales, and therefore could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of
operations.
Shares of Revlon, Inc. Class A Common Stock and Products Corporation’s capital stock are pledged to secure various of
Revlon, Inc.’s and/or other of the Company’s affiliates’ obligations and foreclosure upon these shares or dispositions of
shares could result in the acceleration of debt under the 2006 Credit Agreements and could have other consequences.
All of Products Corporation’s shares of common stock are pledged to secure Revlon, Inc.’s guarantee under the 2006
Credit Agreements. MacAndrews & Forbes has advised the Company that it has pledged shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A
Common Stock to secure certain obligations of MacAndrews & Forbes. Additional shares of Revlon, Inc. and shares of
common stock of intermediate holding companies between Revlon, Inc. and MacAndrews & Forbes may from time to time
be pledged to secure obligations of MacAndrews & Forbes. A default under any of these obligations that are secured by
the pledged shares could cause a foreclosure with respect to such shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock,
Products Corporation’s common stock or stock of intermediate holding companies.
A foreclosure upon any such shares of common stock or dispositions of shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common
Stock, Products Corporation’s common stock or stock of intermediate holding companies beneficially owned by
MacAndrews & Forbes could, in a sufficient amount, constitute a “change of control” under the 2006 Credit Agreements,
the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement and the indenture governing the 91/2% Senior
Notes. A change of control constitutes an event of default under the 2006 Credit Agreements, which would permit Products
Corporation’s lenders to accelerate amounts outstanding under the 2006 Credit Facilities. In addition, holders of the
91/2% Senior Notes may require Products Corporation to repurchase their respective notes under those circumstances.
Upon a change of control, Products Corporation would also be required, after fulfiling its repayment obligations under the
91/2% Senior Notes indenture, to repay in full the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan.
Products Corporation may not have sufficient funds at the time of any such change of control to repay in full the
borrowings under the 2006 Credit Facilities or to repurchase or redeem the 91/2% Senior Notes and/or repay the
MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan. (See “The Company’s ability to service its debt and meet its cash
requirements depends on many factors, including achieving anticipated levels of revenue and expenses. If such revenue or
expense levels prove to be other than as anticipated, the Company may be unable to meet its cash requirements or Products
Corporation may be unable to meet the requirements of the financial covenants under the 2006 Credit Agreements, which
could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations”).
MacAndrews & Forbes has the power to direct and control the Company’s business.
MacAndrews & Forbes is wholly-owned by Ronald O. Perelman. Mr. Perelman, directly and through MacAndrews &

outstanding Class A and Class B Common Stock and controlled approximately 75% of the combined voting power of the
outstanding shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A and Class B Common Stock. As a result, MacAndrews & Forbes is able to
control the election of the entire Board of Directors of Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation (as it is a wholly owned
subsidiary of Revlon, Inc.) and controls the vote on all matters submitted to a vote of Revlon, Inc.’s and Products
Corporation’s stockholders, including the approval of mergers, consolidations, sales of some, all or substantially all of the
Company’s assets, issuances of capital stock and similar transactions.

restructuring charges of $1.1 million, $1.2 million of SG&A and cost of sales and $0.4 million of taxes). In addition, results for 2008
also include restructuring charges of approximately $3.8 million, of which $0.8 million related to a restructuring in Canada,
$2.9 million related to the Company’s realignment of certain functions within customer business development, information

associated with the 2006 Programs were primarily for employee severance and other employee-related termination costs principally
relating to a broad organizational streamlining. The $2.9 million of restructuring charges associated with the 2007 Programs were
primarily for employee severance and other employee-related termination costs relating principally to the closure of the Company’s

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Overview
Overview of the Business
The Company is providing this overview in accordance with the SEC’s December 2003 interpretive guidance regarding
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Revlon Consumer Products Corporation (“Products Corporation” and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is
a direct wholly-owned operating subsidiary of Revlon, Inc., which is a direct and indirect majority-owned subsidiary of
MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc. (“MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings” and together with certain of its affiliates other
than the Company, “MacAndrews & Forbes”), a corporation wholly-owned by Ronald O. Perelman.
The Company operates in a single segment and manufactures, markets and sells an extensive array of cosmetics,
women’s hair color, beauty tools, fragrances, skincare, anti-perspirants/deodorants and personal care products. The
Company is one of the world’s leading cosmetics companies in the mass retail channel. The Company believes that its
global brand name recognition, product quality and marketing experience have enabled it to create one of the strongest
consumer brand franchises in the world.
For additional information regarding our business, see “Part 1 — Business” of this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Overview of Sales and Earnings Results
Consolidated net sales in 2008 were $1,346.8 million, a decrease of $20.3 million, or 1.5%, compared to $1,367.1 million in
2007. Foreign currency fluctuations negatively impacted net sales by $8.4 million, or 0.9% excluding the impact of foreign
currency fluctuations. Excluding foreign currency fluctuations, net sales of Revlon brand color cosmetics increased 9%
driven by increased new product introductions (with higher shipments and lower product returns, partially offset by higher
promotional allowances). Increased net sales of Revlon brand color cosmetics were offset by declines in net sales of Almay
brand color cosmetics (with higher shipments of Almay brand color cosmetics offset by higher product returns and higher
promotional allowances for Almay brand color cosmetics), and lower net sales of certain fragrance and beauty care brands.
In the United States, net sales in 2008 were $782.6 million, a decrease of $21.6 million, or 2.7%, compared to
$804.2 million in 2007. Higher net sales of Revlon brand color cosmetics were offset by lower net sales of Almay brand color
cosmetics, fragrance and beauty care products. In the fragrance and beauty care categories, higher net sales of Revlon
ColorSilk hair color and Revlon beauty tools in 2008 were offset by lower net sales of Revlon Colorist hair color, Revlon
Flair fragrance and Mitchum Smart Solid anti-perspirant deodorant, which were launched in 2007.
In the Company’s international operations, net sales in 2008 were $564.2 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 0.2%,
compared to $562.9 million in 2007. Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations of $8.4 million, net
sales in 2008 increased by 1.7% as a result of higher net sales of Revlon and Almay brand color cosmetics, Revlon beauty
tools and Mitchum anti-perspirant deodorant, partially offset by lower net sales of
23
Table of Contents
fragrance and hair care products, compared to 2007. Higher net sales in the Company’s Asia Pacific and Latin America
regions were partially offset by lower net sales in the Europe region.
Consolidated net income in 2008 was $65.8 million, as compared to a consolidated net loss of $9.0 million in 2007.
Consolidated net income in 2008 included a $45.2 million one-time gain from the Bozzano Sale Transaction, which was
included in net income from discontinued operations, and a loss from discontinued operations of $0.4 million. The
improvement in net income from continuing operations in 2008 compared to 2007 was primarily due to:
• increased net sales of Revlon brand color cosmetics during 2008;
• lower SG&A of $27.1 million, primarily driven by lower advertising costs in the 2008 period, since the 2007 period
included advertising costs associated with the launches of Revlon Colorist hair color, Revlon Flair fragrance and
Mitchum Smart Solid anti-perspirant deodorant, partially offset by higher advertising costs in 2008 in support of
Revlon brand color cosmetics;
• lower interest expense of $15.9 million due to lower weighted average borrowing rates and lower average debt
levels;
• a $5.9 million net gain from the sale of a non-core trademark during the first quarter of 2008;
• a $4.3 million net gain related to the sale of the Mexico facility (which is comprised of a $7.0 million gain on the sale,
partially offset by related restructuring charges of $1.1 million, $1.2 million of SG&A and cost of sales and
$0.4 million of taxes); partially offset by
• a $8.5 million increase in income taxes;
• $6.9 million of lower foreign currency gains; and
• $2.9 million of restructuring charges related to the Company’s realignment of certain functions within customer

All U.S. mass retail dollar share dollar volume and related data herein for the Company’s brands are based upon retail
sales in the U.S. mass retail channel, which are derived from ACNielsen data. ACNielsen measures retail sales volume of
products sold by retailers in the U.S. mass retail channel. Such data represent ACNielsen’s estimates based upon samples
of retail share data gathered by ACNielsen and are therefore subject to some degree of variance and may contain slight
rounding differences. ACNielsen’s data does not reflect sales volume from Wal-Mart, Inc., which is the Company’s largest
customer, representing approximately 23% of the Company’s full year 2008 worldwide net sales, or sales volume from
regional mass volume retailers, prestige, department stores, television shopping, door-to-door, specialty stores, internet,
perfumeries or other distribution outlets, all of which are channels for cosmetics sales. From time to time, ACNielsen adjusts
its methodology for data collection and reporting, which may result in adjustments to the categories and share data tracked
by ACNielsen for both current and prior periods.

Overview of Financing Activities
In January 2008, Products Corporation entered into the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan
Agreement and on February 1, 2008 used the $170 million proceeds from such loan to repay in full the $167.4 million
remaining aggregate principal amount of Products Corporation’s 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, which matured on
February 1, 2008, and to pay $2.55 million of related fees and expenses. In connection with such repayment, Products
Corporation also used cash on hand to pay $7.2 million of accrued and unpaid interest due on the 85/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes. (See “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources — 2008 Repayment of the 85/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes with the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan” describing Products Corporation’s
full repayment of the balance of the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes in February 2008).
In September 2008, Products Corporation used $63 million of the net proceeds from the Bozzano Sale Transaction to
partially repay $63 million of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan. Following such partial repayment, there remained outstanding $107 million in aggregate principal
amount outstanding under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan.
In November 2008, Products Corporation extended the maturity date of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan from August 2009 to the earlier of (1) the date that Revlon, Inc. issues equity with gross proceeds
of at least $107 million, which proceeds would be contributed to Products Corporation and used to repay the $107 million
remaining aggregate principal balance of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan, or (2) August 1, 2010.
Other Factors
The Company expects its results in 2009 will be impacted from increased pension expense due to a significant decline in
pension asset values in 2008, which began in late 2008, and may be further affected by adverse foreign currency
fluctuations and uncertain global economic conditions. However, the Company’s objective is to maximize its business
results in light of these conditions.
The Company expects pension and other post-retirement expenses (i.e., the net periodic benefit cost) to be
approximately $30 million to $35 million in 2009, compared to $7.4 million in 2008. In addition, the Company expects cash
contributions to its pension and other post-retirement benefit plans to be approximately $25 million to $30 million in 2009,
compared to $12.8 million in 2008. In addition, the Company expects purchases of permanent wall displays and capital
expenditures in 2009 to be approximately $50 million and $20 million, respectively.

Net sales:
Consolidated net sales in 2008 were $1,346.8 million, a decrease of $20.3 million, or 1.5%, compared to $1,367.1 million in
2007. Foreign currency fluctuations negatively impacted net sales by $8.4 million, or 0.9% excluding the impact of foreign
currency fluctuations. Excluding foreign currency fluctuations, net sales of Revlon brand color cosmetics increased 9%
driven by increased new product introductions (with higher shipments and lower product returns, partially offset by higher
promotional allowances). Increased net sales of Revlon brand color cosmetics were offset by declines in net sales of Almay
brand color cosmetics (with higher shipments of Almay

brand color cosmetics offset by higher product returns and higher promotional allowances for Almay brand color
cosmetics), and lower net sales of certain fragrance and beauty care brands.

United States
In the United States, net sales in 2008 were $782.6 million, a decrease of $21.6 million, or 2.7%, compared to
$804.2 million in 2007. Higher net sales of Revlon brand color cosmetics were offset by lower net sales of Almay brand color
cosmetics, fragrance and beauty care products. In the fragrance and beauty care categories, higher net sales of Revlon
ColorSilk hair color and Revlon beauty tools in 2008 were offset by lower net sales of Revlon Colorist hair color, Revlon
Flair fragrance and Mitchum Smart Solid anti-perspirant deodorant, which were launched in 2007.
International
In the Company’s international operations, net sales in 2008 were $564.2 million, an increase of $1.3 million, or 0.2%,
compared to $562.9 million in 2007. Excluding the unfavorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations of $8.4 million, net
sales in 2008 increased by 1.7% as a result of higher net sales of Revlon and Almay brand color cosmetics, Revlon beauty
tools and Mitchum anti-perspirant deodorant, partially offset by lower net sales of fragrance and hair care products,
compared to 2007. Higher net sales in the Company’s Asia Pacific and Latin America regions in 2008, compared to 2007,
were partially offset by lower net sales in the Europe region.
In Asia Pacific, which is comprised of Asia Pacific and Africa, net sales increased 3.7%, or 6.7% excluding the impact of
foreign currency fluctuations, to $265.0 million compared to $255.6 million in 2007. This growth in net sales was due primarily
to higher shipments of Revlon color cosmetics throughout the region and higher shipments of beauty care products and
fragrances in South Africa (which together contributed approximately 5.3 percentage points to the increase in the region’s
net sales for 2008, as compared with 2007).
In Europe, which is comprised of Europe, Canada and the Middle East, net sales decreased 4.9%, or 4.7% excluding the
impact of foreign currency flutuations, to $200.8 million compared to $211.1 million in 2007. Lower shipments of fragrances
and color cosmetics in the U.K., Italy and certain distributor markets (which together contributed approximately
6.3 percentage points to the decrease in the region’s net sales in 2008, as compared with 2007) were partially offset by
higher shipments of Revlon and Almay color cosmetics in Canada (which offset by approximately 2.1 percentage points the
decrease in the region’s net sales in 2008, as compared with 2007).
In Latin America, which is comprised of Mexico, Central America and South America, net sales increased 2.3%, or 2.4%
excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, to $98.4 million compared to $96.2 million in 2007. The increase in net
sales was primarily driven by higher net sales in Venezuela and Argentina (which together contributed approximately
10.7 percentage points to the increase in the region’s net sales in 2008, as compared with 2007), partially offset by lower
shipments of beauty care products in Mexico and lower shipments of fragrances and color cosmetics in certain distributor
markets (which offset by approximately 7.1 percentage points the Latin America region’s increase in net sales in 2008, as
compared with 2007).

The 0.5 percentage point increase in gross profit as a percentage of net sales for 2008, compared to 2007, was primarily
due to:
• changes in sales mix, which increased gross profit as a percentage of net sales by 0.4 percentage points; and

SG&A expenses $701.6 $728.7 $ 27.1
The decrease in SG&A expenses for 2008, as compared to 2007, was driven primarily by:
• $39.1 million of lower advertising costs in the 2008 period since the 2007 period included advertising costs
associated with the launches of Revlon Colorist hair color, Revlon Flair fragrance and Mitchum Smart Solid anti-
perspirant deodorant, partially offset by $11.5 million of higher advertising costs in 2008 in support of Revlon and
Almay brand color cosmetics; and
• $9.5 million of lower permanent display amortization expenses; partially offset by
• a $4.4 million benefit in 2007 related to the reversal of a deferred rental liability upon exiting a portion of the
Company’s New York City headquarters leased space in 2007.
Restructuring costs:
2008 2007 C h an ge
Restructuring costs and other, net $ (8.4) $ 7.3 $ 15.7
During 2008, the Company recorded income of $8.4 million included in restructuring costs and other, net, primarily due
to a gain of $7.0 million related to the sale of its facility in Mexico and a net gain of $5.9 million related to the sale of a non-
core trademark. In addition, a $0.4 million favorable adjustment was recorded to restructuring costs associated with the 2006
Programs, primarily due to the charges for severance and other employee-related termination costs being slightly lower than
originally estimated. These were partially offset by a restructuring charge of $4.9 million for the 2008 Programs, of which
$0.8 million related to a restructuring in Canada, $1.1 million related to the Company’s decision to close and sell its facility in
Mexico, $2.9 million related to the Company’s realignment of certain functions within customer business development,
information management and administrative services in the U.S. and $0.1 million related to other various restructurings. Of
the net $4.9 million of charges related to the 2008 Programs, $4.7 million of which were cash charges, $1.7 million was paid
out in 2008 and $3.0 million is expected to be paid out by the end of 2009.
During 2007, the Company implemented the 2007 Programs, which consisted of the closure of the Company’s Irvington
facility and personnel reductions within the Company’s Information Management (IM) function and the sales force in
Canada, which actions were designed, for the IM function resources, to better align the Company’s information
management plan, and in Canada, to improve the allocation of resources. Both actions resulted in reduced costs and an
improvement in the Company’s operating profit margins. In connection with the 2007 Programs, the Company incurred a
total of approximately $2.9 million of restructuring charges and other costs to implement these programs, consisting of
approximately $2.5 million of charges related to employee severance and other employee-related termination costs for the
2007 Programs and approximately $0.4 million of various other
27
Table of Contents
charges related to the closure of the Irvington facility. The Company recorded all $2.9 million of the restructuring charges
for the 2007 Programs in 2007, all of which were cash charges. Of such charges, $2.3 million was paid out in 2007, $0.5 million
was paid out in 2008 and approximately $0.1 million is expected to be paid out through 2009. In addition, in 2007, the
Company recorded $4.4 million in restructuring expenses associated with the 2006 Programs for vacating leased space,
employee severance and other employee-related termination costs. (See Note 3 “Restructuring Costs and Other, Net” to the

Provision for income taxes $ 15.9 $ 7.4 $ (8.5)
The increase in the tax provision for 2008, as compared to 2007, was attributable to favorable tax adjustments in 2007,
which did not reoccur in 2008, as well as higher taxable income in certain jurisdictions outside the U.S. in 2008 versus 2007.
The 2007 tax provision benefited from a $5.9 million reduction in tax liabilities due to the resolution of various international
tax matters as a result of regulatory developments and the reduction of a valuation allowance by $4.2 million.

due to higher shipments of beauty care products, primarily women’s hair color, and Almay color cosmetics, partially offset
by lower shipments of Revlon color cosmetics in 2007.
International
In the Company’s international operations, foreign currency fluctuations favorably impacted net sales in 2007 by
$22.2 million. Excluding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, the $6.9 million increase in net sales in 2007 in the
Company’s international operations, as compared with 2006, was driven primarily by higher shipments in the Asia Pacific
region, partially offset by lower shipments in the Europe region, particularly in Canada. Net sales in Canada in 2006 were
positively impacted by certain promotional programs in color cosmetics and the restage of Almay color cosmetics.
In Asia Pacific, which is comprised of Asia Pacific and Africa, the increase in net sales, excluding the favorable impact
of foreign currency fluctuations, was due primarily to higher shipments in South Africa, and to a lesser extent, Australia and
certain distributor markets and lower returns expense in Japan (which together contributed approximately 6.4 percentage
points to the increase in net sales for the region in 2007, as compared with 2006). This increase was partially offset by lower
shipments in Hong Kong and Taiwan (which together offset by approximately 1.4 percentage points the increase in net
sales for the region for 2007, as compared with 2006). The higher shipments in South Africa were driven primarily by growth
in color cosmetics and beauty care products. The higher shipments in Australia were driven primarily by growth in color
cosmetics. The lower shipments in Hong Kong and Taiwan were driven primarily by a decline in color cosmetics.
In Europe, which is comprised of Europe, Canada and the Middle East, the decrease in net sales, excluding the
favorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations, was due primarily to lower shipments of color cosmetics and beauty care
products in Canada, partially offset by higher shipments of beauty tools. The decline in color cosmetics in Canada was due
primarily to the favorable impact on 2006 net sales of promotions in color cosmetics, partially offset by lower returns and
allowances of color cosmetics resulting from lower promotional sales in 2007. The net sales decline in Canada contributed
approximately 4.0 percentage points to the decrease in net sales for the region for 2007, as compared with 2006.
In Latin America, which is comprised of Mexico, Central America and South America, the increase in net sales,
excluding the favorable impact of foreign currency fluctuations, was driven primarily by higher shipments in Venezuela and,
to a lesser extent, Argentina (which together contributed approximately 12.6 percentage points to the increase in net sales
for the region in 2007, as compared with 2006). This increase was substantially offset by a net sales decline in Chile resulting
from the move of the Chile subsidiary business to a distributor model during 2007 (which together offset approximately
4.1 percentage points of the increase in net sales for the region in 2007, as compared with 2006). The higher shipments in
Venezuela and Argentina were driven primarily by growth in color cosmetics and beauty care products.

Percentage of net sales 63.0% 59.4% 3.6%
The 3.6 percentage point increase in gross profit for 2007 compared to 2006 was primarily due to:
• lower estimated excess inventory charges in 2007 compared to 2006 resulting from estimated excess inventory
charges in 2006 related to the Vital Radiance, Almay and Revlon brands, which increased gross profit as a
percentage of net sales by 2.4 percentage points; and
• higher net sales including the impact of approximately $64.4 million of charges for estimated returns and allowances
recorded in 2006 related to the Vital Radiance brand (which was discontinued in September 2006), which increased
gross profit as a percentage of net sales by 2.0 percentage points, partially offset by unfavorable changes in sales
mix and lower production volume in 2007.

2007 2006 C h an ge
SG&A expenses $728.7 $789.0 $ 60.3
The decrease in SG&A expenses for 2007 compared to 2006 was driven primarily by:
• approximately $25.9 million of lower general and administrative expenses, primarily related to the impact of the
Company’s 2006 and 2007 organizational realignment and streamlining activities, which resulted in lower personnel-
related expenses and occupancy expenses. Occupancy expenses were lower by $8.1 million in 2007 versus 2006,
primarily related to the Company’s exit of a portion of its New York City headquarters leased space, including a
benefit of $4.4 million related to the reversal of a deferred rental liability upon exit of the space in the first quarter of
2007;
• approximately $15.2 million of lower display amortization expenses in 2007 compared to 2006, which included
$8.9 million of charges related to the accelerated amortization and write-off of certain displays in connection with
the discontinuance of the Vital Radiance brand, as well as additional display amortization costs in 2006 of
$8.3 million related to the Vital Radiance brand prior to its discontinuance in September 2006;
• approximately $10.9 million of lower advertising costs in 2007 compared to 2006, including advertising costs of
$36.4 million for the Vital Radiance brand in 2006, partially offset by higher advertising spending in 2007 on the
Company’s core brands; and
• $9.4 million of severance and accelerated charges recorded in 2006 related to unvested options and unvested
restricted stock in connection with the termination of the former CEO’s employment in September 2006.
Restructuring costs:

Restructuring costs and other, net $ 7.3 $ 27.4 $ 20.1
In 2007, the Company recorded $7.3 million in restructuring expenses for vacating leased space, employee severance
and other employee-related termination costs. (See Note 3, “Restructuring Costs and Other, Net” to the Consolidated
Financial Statements regarding the 2007 Programs). In 2006, the Company recorded $27.4 million in restructuring expenses
for employee severance and employee-related termination costs related to the 2006 Programs.
During 2007, the Company implemented the 2007 Programs, which consisted of the closure of the Company’s Irvington
facility and personnel reductions within the Company’s Information Management (IM) function and the sales force in
Canada, which actions were designed, for the IM function resources, to better align the Company’s information
management plan, and in Canada, to improve the allocation of resources. Both actions resulted in reduced costs and an
improvement in the Company’s operating profit margins. In connection with the 2007 Programs, the Company incurred a
total of approximately $2.9 million of restructuring charges and other costs to implement these programs, consisting of
approximately $2.5 million of charges related to employee severance and other employee-related termination costs for the
2007 Programs and approximately $0.4 million of various other charges related to the closure of the Irvington facility. The
Company recorded all $2.9 million of the restructuring charges for the 2007 Programs in 2007, all of which were cash charges.
Of such charges, $2.3 million was paid out in 2007 and approximately $0.6 million is expected to be paid out through 2009.
In connection with the 2006 Programs, the Company recorded charges of approximately $32.9 million in 2006 and
$5.0 million in 2007, respectively. Of the total $37.9 million of charges related to the 2006 Programs, approximately
$30.6 million are expected to be paid in cash, of which approximately $10.4 million was paid out in 2006, $16.2 million was
paid out in 2007 and approximately $4.0 million is expected to be paid out through 2009. As part of the 2006 Programs, the
Company agreed in December 2006 to cancel its lease and modify the sublease of
30

its New York City headquarters space, including vacating 23,000 square feet in December 2006 and vacating an additional
77,300 square feet in February 2007. These space reductions are resulting in savings in rental and related expense, while
allowing the Company to maintain its corporate offices in a smaller, more efficient space, reflecting its streamlined
organization.

Interest expenses $135.6 $147.7 $ 12.1
The decrease in interest expenses for 2007 compared to 2006 was primarily due to lower average borrowing rates on

Loss on early extinguishment of debt $ 0.1 $ 23.5 $ 23.4
For 2007, the loss on early extinguishment of debt represents the loss on the redemption in February 2007 of

portion of the net proceeds of the $100 Million Rights Offering completed in January 2007 (See “Financial Condition,

Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan” describing Products Corporation’s full repayment of the balance of the
85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes in February 2008). In 2006, the loss on early extinguishment of debt represents the loss on
the redemption in April 2006 of approximately $110 million in aggregate principal amount of Products Corporation’s
85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes using the net proceeds of the $110 Million Rights Offering completed in March 2006.

Provision for income taxes $ 7.4 $ 19.9 $ 12.5
The decrease in the provision for income taxes in 2007, as compared with 2006, was primarily attributable to the 2007 tax
provision benefitting from a $5.9 million reduction in tax liabilities due to the resolution of various international tax matters
as a result of regulatory developments and the reduction of a valuation allowance by $4.2 million, which together offset the
effect of higher taxable income in 2007 in certain foreign jurisdictions.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Net cash provided by (used in) operating activities was $33.1 million, $0.3 million and $(139.7) million for 2008, 2007 and
2006, respectively. The improvement in 2008 compared to 2007 was primarily due to net income of $65.8 million in 2008, as
compared to a net loss in 2007 of $9.0 million, and the positive cash impact of changes in working capital. The improvement
in 2007 compared to 2006 was primarily due to lower net loss and decreased purchases of permanent displays, partially
offset by the cash impact of changes in net working capital, including cash used for product return settlements in 2007
related to the September 2006 discontinuance of Vital Radiance and lower trade receivables.

Net cash provided by (used in) investing activities was $100.5 million, $(17.4) million and $(22.1) million for 2008, 2007
and 2006, respectively. Capital expenditures were $20.7 million, $19.8 million and $22.1 million in 2008, 2007 and 2006,
respectively. Net cash provided by investing activities in 2008 included $107.6 million in gross proceeds from the Bozzano
Sale Transaction (see Note 2, “Discontinued Operations” to the Consolidated Financial Statements) and $13.6 million in
proceeds from the sale of a non-core trademark and certain other assets (which included net proceeds as a result of the sale
of the Mexico facility).
Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities was $(111.9) million, $29.1 million and $163.0 million for 2008, 2007
and 2006, respectively. Net cash used in financing activities for 2008 included the full repayment on February 1, 2008 of the
$167.4 million remaining aggregate principal amount of Products Corporation’s 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, which
matured on February 1, 2008, and $43.5 million of repayments under the 2006 Revloving Credit Facility, offset by proceeds of
$170.0 million from the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement, which Products Corporation
used to repay in full such 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes on their February 1, 2008 maturity date, and to pay $2.55 million
of related fees and expenses. In addition, in September 2008, the Company used $63.0 million of the net proceeds from the
Bozzano Sale Transaction to repay $63.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan, leaving $107 million in aggregate principal amount remaining outstanding under such loan.
Net cash provided by financing activities for 2007 included net proceeds of $98.9 million from Revlon, Inc.’s issuance
of Class A Common Stock as a result of the closing of the $100 Million Rights Offering in January 2007. Revlon, Inc.’s
proceeds from the $100 Million Rights Offering were promptly transferred to Products Corporation, which it used in
February 2007 to redeem $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes at an aggregate
redemption price of $50.3 million, including $0.3 million of accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the
redemption date. The remainder of such proceeds was used to repay approximately $43.3 million of indebtedness
outstanding under Products Corporation’s 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, without any permanent reduction of that
commitment, after incurring fees and expenses of approximately $1.1 million incurred in connection with the $100 Million
Rights Offering, with approximately $5 million of the remaining proceeds then being available for general corporate
purposes.
Net cash provided by financing activities for 2006 included net proceeds of $107.2 million from Revlon, Inc.’s issuance
in March 2006 of Class A Common Stock in the $110 Million Rights Offering, borrowings during the second and third
quarter of 2006 under the 2004 Multi-Currency Facility (as hereinafter defined) under the 2004 Credit Agreement,
$100.0 million from borrowings under the Term Loan Add-on (as hereinafter defined) under the 2004 Credit Agreement and
$840.0 million from borrowings under the 2006 Term Loan Facility.
The net proceeds from the $110 Million Rights Offering were promptly transferred to Products Corporation, which it
used in April 2006, together with available cash, to redeem $109.7 million aggregate principal amount of its 85/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes at an aggregate redemption price of $111.8 million, including $2.1 million of accrued and unpaid interest
up to, but not including, the redemption date and to pay related financing costs of $9.4 million (the balance of which was
repaid in full in February 2008 — See “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources — 2008 Repayment of the
85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes with the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan”). Products Corporation
used the proceeds from the $100.0 million Term Loan Add-on to repay in July 2006 $78.6 million of outstanding
indebtedness under the 2004 Multi-Currency Facility under Products Corporation’s 2004 Credit Agreement, without any
permanent reduction in the commitment under that facility, and the balance of $11.7 million, after the payment of fees and
expenses incurred in connection with consummating such transaction, was used for general corporate purposes. Products
Corporation used the proceeds from the $840.0 million 2006 Term Loan Facility to repay in December 2006 approximately
$798.0 million of outstanding indebtedness under the 2004 Term Loan Facility, repay approximately $13.3 million of
indebtedness outstanding under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility and pay approximately $15.3 million of accrued interest
and a $8.0 million prepayment fee.
At January 31, 2009, Products Corporation had a liquidity position of approximately $184.0 million, consisting of cash
and cash equivalents (net of any outstanding checks) of approximately $55.1 million, as well as approximately $128.9 million
in available borrowings under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility.

December 2006 — Credit Agreement Refinancing

In December 2006, Products Corporation refinanced its 2004 Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined), and, among
other things, reduced its interest rates and extended the maturity dates for its bank credit facilities from July 9, 2009 to
January 15, 2012 in the case of the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility and from July 9, 2010 to January 15, 2012 in the case of the
2006 Term Loan Facility (as hereinafter defined).
In July 2004, Products Corporation entered into a credit agreement (the “2004 Credit Agreement”) with certain of its
subsidiaries as local borrowing subsidiaries, a syndicate of lenders, Citicorp USA, Inc., as multi-currency administrative
agent, term loan administrative agent and collateral agent, UBS Securities LLC as syndication agent and Citigroup Global
Markets Inc. as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner.
The 2004 Credit Agreement originally provided up to $960.0 million and consisted of a term loan facility of
$800.0 million (the “2004 Term Loan Facility”) and a $160.0 million multi-currency revolving credit facility, the availability
under which varied based upon the borrowing base that was determined based upon the value of eligible accounts
receivable and eligible inventory in the U.S. and the U.K. and eligible real property and equipment in the U.S. from time to
time (the “2004 Multi-Currency Facility”).
As part of the December 2006 refinancing of the 2004 Credit Agreement, Products Corporation replaced the $800 million
2004 Term Loan Facility under its 2004 Credit Agreement with a 5-year, term loan facility (the “2006 Term Loan Facility”) in
an original aggregate principal amount of $840 million pursuant to a term loan agreement, dated as of December 20, 2006,
among Products Corporation, as borrower, the lenders party thereto, Citicorp USA, Inc., as administrative agent and
collateral agent, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.,
as syndication agent (with the agreement governing the 2006 Term Loan Facility being the “2006 Term Loan Agreement”).
At January 31, 2009 the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the 2006 Term Loan Facility was $831.6 million due to
regularly scheduled amortization payments. (See “Recent Developments”).
As part of this December 2006 bank refinancing, Products Corporation also amended and restated the 2004 Multi-
Currency Facility by entering into a $160.0 million 2006 revolving credit agreement (the “2006 Revolving Credit Agreement”,
and together with the 2006 Term Loan Agreement, the “2006 Credit Agreements”) that amended and restated the 2004 Credit
Agreement (with such revolving credit facility being the “2006 Revolving Credit Facility” and, together with the 2006 Term
Loan Facility, the “2006 Credit Facilities”). At January 31, 2009, availability under the $160.0 million 2006 Revolving Credit
Facility, based upon the calculated borrowing base less approximately $13.1 million of outstanding letters of credit and nil
then drawn on the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, was approximately $128.9 million.
Availability under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility varies based on a borrowing base that is determined by the value
of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory in the U.S. and the U.K. and eligible real property and equipment in the
U.S. from time to time.
In each case subject to borrowing base availability, the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility is available to:
(i) Products Corporation in revolving credit loans denominated in U.S. dollars;
(ii) Products Corporation in swing line loans denominated in U.S. dollars up to $30 million;
(iii) Products Corporation in standby and commercial letters of credit denominated in U.S. dollars and other
currencies up to $60 million; and
(iv) Products Corporation and certain of its international subsidiaries designated from time to time in revolving credit
loans and bankers’ acceptances denominated in U.S. dollars and other currencies.
If the value of the eligible assets is not sufficient to support a $160 million borrowing base under the 2006 Revolving
Credit Facility, Products Corporation will not have full access to the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility. Products Corporation’s
ability to make borrowings under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility is also conditioned upon the satisfaction of certain
conditions precedent and Products Corporation’s compliance with other covenants in the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility,
including a fixed charge coverage ratio that applies if and when the excess
33
Table of Contents
borrowing base (representing the difference between (1) the borrowing base under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility and
(2) the amounts outstanding under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility) is less than $20.0 million.
Borrowings under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility (other than loans in foreign currencies) bear interest at a rate
equal to, at Products Corporation’s option, either (i) the Eurodollar Rate plus 2.00% per annum or (ii) the Alternate Base
Rate plus 1.00% per annum. Loans in foreign currencies bear interest in certain limited circumstances, or if mutually
acceptable to Products Corporation and the relevant foreign lenders, at the Local Rate, and otherwise at the Eurocurrency
Rate, in each case plus 2.00%. At December 31, 2008, there were no borrowings under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility.
Under the 2006 Term Loan Facility, Eurodollar Loans bear interest at the Eurodollar Rate plus 4.00% per annum and
Alternate Base Rate loans bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus 3.00% per annum. At December 31, 2008, the
effective weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the 2006 Term Loan Facility was 6.42%. (See “Financial
Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resouces — Interest Rate Swap Transactions”).
The 2006 Credit Facilities are supported by, among other things, guarantees from Revlon, Inc. and, subject to certain
limited exceptions, the domestic subsidiaries of Products Corporation. The obligations of Products Corporation under the
2006 Credit Facilities and the obligations under the guarantees are secured by, subject to certain limited exceptions,
substantially all of the assets of Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors, including:
(i) mortgages on owned real property, including Products Corporation’s facility in Oxford, North Carolina and
property in Irvington, New Jersey;
(ii) the capital stock of Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors and 66% of the capital stock of Products
Corporation’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ first-tier foreign subsidiaries;
(iii) intellectual property and other intangible property of Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors; and
(iv) inventory, accounts receivable, equipment, investment property and deposit accounts of Products Corporation
and the subsidiary guarantors.
The liens on, among other things, inventory, accounts receivable, deposit accounts, investment property (other than
the capital stock of Products Corporation and its subsidiaries), real property, equipment, fixtures and certain intangible
property related thereto secure the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility on a first priority basis and the 2006 Term Loan Facility on
a second priority basis. The liens on the capital stock of Products Corporation and its subsidiaries and intellectual property
and certain other intangible property secure the 2006 Term Loan Facility on a first priority basis and the 2006 Revolving
Credit Facility on a second priority basis. Such arrangements are set forth in the Amended and Restated Intercreditor and
Collateral Agency Agreement, dated as of December 20, 2006, by and among Products Corporation and the lenders (the
“2006 Intercreditor Agreement”). The 2006 Intercreditor Agreement also provides that the liens referred to above may be
shared from time to time, subject to certain limitations, with specified types of other obligations incurred or guaranteed by
Products Corporation, such as foreign exchange and interest rate hedging obligations (including the Interest Rate Swaps
that Products Corporation entered into in September 2007 and April 2008 in connection with indebtedness outstanding
under the 2006 Term Loan Facility — See “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources — Interest Rate Swap
Transactions”) and foreign working capital lines.
Each of the 2006 Credit Facilities contains various restrictive covenants prohibiting Products Corporation and its
subsidiaries from:
(i) incurring additional indebtedness or guarantees, with certain exceptions;
(ii) making dividend and other payments or loans to Revlon, Inc. or other affiliates, with certain exceptions,
including among others,
(a) exceptions permitting Products Corporation to pay dividends or make other payments to Revlon, Inc. to
enable it to, among other things, pay expenses incidental to being a public holding

Table of Contents
company, including, among other things, professional fees such as legal, accounting and insurance fees,
regulatory fees, such as SEC filing fees, NYSE listing fees and other expenses related to being a public
holding company,
(b) subject to certain circumstances, to finance the purchase by Revlon, Inc. of its Class A Common Stock in
connection with the delivery of such Class A Common Stock to grantees under the Stock Plan (as
hereinafter defined) and/or the payment of withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted
stock awards under such plan, and
(c) subject to certain limitations, to pay dividends or make other payments to finance the purchase,
redemption or other retirement for value by Revlon, Inc. of stock or other equity interests or equivalents
in Revlon, Inc. held by any current or former director, employee or consultant in his or her capacity as
such;
(iii) creating liens or other encumbrances on Products Corporation’s or its subsidiaries’ assets or revenues, granting
negative pledges or selling or transferring any of Products Corporation’s or its subsidiaries’ assets, all subject to
certain limited exceptions;
(iv) with certain exceptions, engaging in merger or acquisition transactions;
(v) prepaying indebtedness and modifying the terms of certain indebtedness and specified material contractual
obligations, subject to certain exceptions;
(vi) making investments, subject to certain exceptions; and
(vii) entering into transactions with affiliates of Products Corporation other than upon terms no less favorable to
Products Corporation or its subsidiaries than it would obtain in an arms’ length transaction.
In addition to the foregoing, the 2006 Term Loan Facility contains a financial covenant limiting Products Corporation’s
senior secured leverage ratio (the ratio of Products Corporation’s Senior Secured Debt (excluding debt outstanding under
the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility) to EBITDA, as each such term is defined in the 2006 Term Loan Facility) to 5.0 to 1.0 for
each period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending during the period from December 31, 2008 to the January 2012
maturity date of the 2006 Term Loan Facility.
Under certain circumstances if and when the difference between (i) the borrowing base under the 2006 Revolving
Credit Facility and (ii) the amounts outstanding under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility is less than $20.0 million for a
period of 30 consecutive days or more, the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility requires Products Corporation to maintain a
consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (the ratio of EBITDA minus Capital Expenditures to Cash Interest Expense for such
period, as each such term is defined in the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility) of 1.0 to 1.0.
The events of default under each 2006 Credit Facility include customary events of default for such types of
agreements, including:
(i) nonpayment of any principal, interest or other fees when due, subject in the case of interest and fees to a grace
period;
(ii) non-compliance with the covenants in such 2006 Credit Facility or the ancillary security documents, subject in
certain instances to grace periods;
(iii) the institution of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings by or against Products Corporation, any of
Products Corporation’s subsidiaries or Revlon, Inc., subject in certain instances to grace periods;
(iv) default by Revlon, Inc. or any of its subsidiaries (A) in the payment of certain indebtedness when due (whether
at maturity or by acceleration) in excess of $5.0 million in aggregate principal amount or (B) in the observance or
performance of any other agreement or condition relating to such debt, provided that the amount of debt
involved is in excess of $5.0 million in aggregate principal amount, or the occurrence of any other event, the
effect of which default referred to in this subclause (iv) is to cause or permit the holders of such debt to cause
the acceleration of payment of such debt;
35
Table of Contents
(v) in the case of the 2006 Term Loan Facility, a cross default under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, and in the
case of the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, a cross default under the 2006 Term Loan Facility;
(vi) the failure by Products Corporation, certain of Products Corporation’s subsidiaries or Revlon, Inc., to pay
certain material judgments;
(vii) a change of control such that (A) Revlon, Inc. shall cease to be the beneficial and record owner of 100% of
Products Corporation’s capital stock, (B) Ronald O. Perelman (or his estate, heirs, executors, administrator or
other personal representative) and his or their controlled affiliates shall cease to “control” Products
Corporation, and any other person or group of persons owns, directly or indirectly, more than 35% of the total
voting power of Products Corporation, (C) any person or group of persons other than Ronald O. Perelman (or
his estate, heirs, executors, administrator or other personal representative) and his or their controlled affiliates
shall “control” Products Corporation or (D) during any period of two consecutive years, the directors serving
on Products Corporation’s Board of Directors at the beginning of such period (or other directors nominated by
at least 662/3% of such continuing directors) shall cease to be a majority of the directors;
(viii) the failure by Revlon, Inc. to contribute to Products Corporation all of the net proceeds it receives from any sale
of its equity securities or Products Corporation’s capital stock, subject to certain limited exceptions;
(ix) the failure of any of Products Corporation’s, its subsidiaries’ or Revlon, Inc.’s representations or warranties in
any of the documents entered into in connection with the 2006 Credit Facility to be correct, true and not
misleading in all material respects when made or confirmed;
(x) the conduct by Revlon, Inc. of any meaningful business activities other than those that are customary for a
publicly traded holding company which is not itself an operating company, including the ownership of
meaningful assets (other than Products Corporation’s capital stock) or the incurrence of debt, in each case
subject to limited exceptions;
(xi) any M&F Lenders’ failure to fund any binding commitments by such M&F Lender under any agreement
governing certain loans from the M&F Lenders (excluding the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated
Term Loan which was fully funded by MacAndrews & Forbes in February 2008); and
(xii) the failure of certain of Products Corporation’s affiliates which hold Products Corporation’s or its subsidiaries’
indebtedness to be party to a valid and enforceable agreement prohibiting such affiliate from demanding or
retaining payments in respect of such indebtedness.
If Products Corporation is in default under the senior secured leverage ratio under the 2006 Term Loan Facility or the
consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, Products Corporation may cure such
default by issuing certain equity securities to, or receiving capital contributions from, Revlon, Inc. and applying the cash
therefrom which is deemed to increase EBITDA for the purpose of calculating the applicable ratio. This cure right may be
exercised by Products Corporation two times in any four quarter period. Products Corporation was in compliance with all
applicable covenants under the 2006 Credit Agreements as of December 31, 2008.
2006 and 2007 Rights Offerings
March 2006 — $110 Million Rights Offering
In March 2006, Revlon, Inc. completed a $110 million rights offering of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock (including
the related private placement to MacAndrews & Forbes, the “$110 Million Rights Offering”), which allowed each
stockholder of record of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A and Class B Common Stock as of the close of business on February 13,
2006, the record date set by Revlon, Inc.’s Board of Directors, to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock. The
subscription price for each share of Class A Common Stock purchased in the $110
36
Table of Contents
Million Rights Offering, including shares purchased in the private placement by MacAndrews & Forbes, was $28.00 per
share (as adjusted for the September 2008 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split).
Upon completing the $110 Million Rights Offering, Revlon, Inc. promptly transferred the net proceeds to Products
Corporation, which it used to redeem $109.7 million aggregate principal amount of its 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes in
satisfaction of the applicable requirements under the 2004 Credit Agreement, at an aggregate redemption price of
$111.8 million, including $2.1 million of accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the redemption date. (See
“Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources — 2008 Repayment of the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes with the
MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan” regarding Products Corporation’s full repayment of the balance of
the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes upon maturity on February 1, 2008).
In completing the $110 Million Rights Offering, Revlon, Inc. issued an additional 3,928,571 shares of its Class A

by public shareholders (other than MacAndrews & Forbes) and 2,340,005 shares issued to MacAndrews & Forbes in a
private placement directly from Revlon, Inc. pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement between Revlon, Inc. and
MacAndrews & Forbes, dated as of February 17, 2006. The shares issued to MacAndrews & Forbes represented the
number of shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock that MacAndrews & Forbes would otherwise have been entitled
to purchase pursuant to its basic subscription privilege in the $110 Million Rights Offering (which was approximately 60%
of the shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock offered in the $110 Million Rights Offering).
January 2007 — $100 Million Rights Offering
In January 2007, Revlon, Inc. completed a $100 million rights offering of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock
(including the related private placement to MacAndrews & Forbes, the “$100 Million Rights Offering”), which allowed each
stockholder of record of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A and Class B Common Stock as of the close of business on December 11,
2006, the record date set by Revlon, Inc.’s Board of Directors, to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock. The
subscription price for each share of Class A Common Stock purchased in the $100 Million Rights Offering, including shares
purchased in the private placement by MacAndrews & Forbes, was $10.50 per share (as adjusted for the September 2008 1-
for-10 Reverse Stock Split).
Corporation, which it used in February 2007 to redeem $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 85/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes at an aggregate redemption price of $50.3 million, including $0.3 million of accrued and unpaid interest
up to, but not including, the redemption date (the balance of which was repaid in full in February 2008 — See “Financial
Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources — 2008 Repayment of the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes with the
MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan”). Products Corporation used the remainder of such proceeds in
January 2007 to repay approximately $43.3 million of indebtedness outstanding under Products Corporation’s 2006
Revolving Credit Facility, without any permanent reduction of that commitment, after paying fees and expenses of
approximately $1.1 million incurred in connection with the $100 Million Rights Offering, with approximately $5 million of the
remaining net proceeds then being available for general corporate purposes.
Common Stock (as adjusted for the September 2008 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split), including 3,784,747 shares subscribed for
by public shareholders (other than MacAndrews & Forbes) and 5,739,062 shares issued to MacAndrews & Forbes in a
private placement directly from Revlon, Inc. pursuant to a Stock Purchase Agreement between Revlon, Inc. and
MacAndrews & Forbes, dated as of December 18, 2006. The shares issued to MacAndrews & Forbes represented the
number of shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock that MacAndrews & Forbes would otherwise have been entitled
to purchase pursuant to its basic subscription privilege in the $100 Million Rights Offering (which was approximately 60%
of the shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock offered in the $100 Million Rights Offering).

2008 Repayment of the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes with the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term
Loan
Agreement and on February 1, 2008 used the $170 million of proceeds from such loan to repay in full the $167.4 million
Subordinated Notes up to, but not including, the February 1, 2008 maturity date.
In September 2008, Products Corporation used $63.0 million of the net proceeds from the Bozzano Sale Transaction to
partially repay $63.0 million of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
amount under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan.
The MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan bears interest at an annual rate of 11%, which is payable
in arrears in cash on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year.
Pursuant to a November 2008 amendment, the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan is scheduled to
mature on the earlier of (1) the date that Revlon, Inc. issues equity with gross proceeds of at least $107 million, which
proceeds would be contributed to Products Corporation and used to repay the $107 million remaining aggregate principal
balance of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan, or (2) August 1, 2010, in consideration for the
payment of an extension fee of 1.5% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the loan. The MacAndrews &
Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan continues to provide that Products Corporation may, at its option, prepay such
loan, in whole or in part, at any time prior to maturity, without premium or penalty. See Note 9(d), “MacAndrews & Forbes
Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement” to the Consolidated Financial Statements for futher details on the terms and
conditions of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan.
In connection with the closing of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan, Revlon, Inc. and
MacAndrews & Forbes entered into a letter agreement in January 2008, pursuant to which Revlon, Inc. agreed that, if
Revlon, Inc. conducts any equity offering before the full payment of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term
Loan, and if MacAndrews & Forbes and/or its affiliates elects to participate in any such offering, MacAndrews & Forbes
and/or its affiliates may pay for any shares it acquires in such offering either in cash or by tendering debt valued at its face
amount under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement, including any accrued but unpaid
interest, on a dollar for dollar basis, or in any combination of cash and such debt. Revlon, Inc. is under no obligation to
conduct an equity offering and MacAndrews & Forbes and its affiliates are under no obligation to subscribe for shares
should Revlon elect to conduct an equity offering.
2004 Consolidated MacAndrews & Forbes Line of Credit
In July 2004, Products Corporation and MacAndrews & Forbes Inc. entered into a line of credit, with an initial
commitment of $152.0 million, which was reduced to $87.0 million in July 2005 and reduced from $87.0 million to $50.0 million
in January 2007 upon Revlon, Inc.’s consummation of the $100 Million Rights Offering (as amended, the “2004 Consolidated
MacAndrews & Forbes Line of Credit”). Pursuant to a December 2006 amendment, upon consummation of the $100 Million
Rights Offering, which was completed in January 2007, $50.0 million of the line of credit remained available to Products
Corporation through January 31, 2008 on substantially the same terms (which line of credit would otherwise have terminated
pursuant to its terms upon the consummation of the $100 Million Rights Offering). The 2004 Consolidated MacAndrews &
Forbes Line of Credit expired in accordance with its terms on January 31, 2008. It was undrawn during its entire term.
Interest Rate Swap Transactions
In September 2007 and April 2008, Products Corporation executed the two floating-to-fixed Interest Rate Swaps each
with a notional amount of $150.0 million over a period of two years relating to indebtedness under Products Corporation’s
2006 Term Loan Facility. The Company designated the Interest Rate Swaps as cash flow
38
Table of Contents
hedges of the variable interest rate payments on Products Corporation’s 2006 Term Loan Facility. Under the terms of the
2007 Interest Rate Swap and the 2008 Interest Rate Swap, Products Corporation is required to pay to the counterparty a
quarterly fixed interest rate of 4.692% and 2.66%, respectively, on the $150.0 million notional amounts which commenced in
December 2007 and July 2008, respectively, while receiving a variable interest rate payment from the counterparty equal to
three-month U.S. dollar LIBOR (which, based upon the 4.0% applicable margin, effectively fixed the interest rate on such
notional amounts at 8.692% and 6.66%, respectively, for the 2-year term of each swap). While the Company is exposed to
credit loss in the event of the counterparty’s non-performance, if any, the Company’s exposure is limited to the net amount
that Products Corporation would have received over the remaining balance of each Interest Rate Swap’s two-year term. The
Company does not anticipate any non-performance and, furthermore, even in the case of any non-performance by the
counterparty, the Company expects that any such loss would not be material. The fair value of Products Corporation’s 2007
Interest Rate Swap and 2008 Interest Rate Swap was $(3.8) million and $(1.9) million, respectively, at December 31, 2008.
Sources and Uses
The Company’s principal sources of funds are expected to be operating revenues, cash on hand and funds available
for borrowing under the 2006 Revolving Credit Agreement and other permitted lines of credit. The 2006 Credit Agreements,
the indenture governing Products Corporation’s 91/2% Senior Notes and the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated
Term Loan Agreement contain certain provisions that by their terms limit Products Corporation and its subsidiaries’ ability
to, among other things, incur additional debt.
The Company’s principal uses of funds are expected to be the payment of operating expenses, including expenses in
connection with the continued execution of the Company’s business strategy, purchases of permanent wall displays,
capital expenditure requirements, payments in connection with the Company’s restructuring programs, severance not
otherwise included in the Company’s restructuring programs, debt service payments and costs and regularly scheduled
pension and post-retirement benefit plan contributions and benefit payments. The Company’s cash contributions to its
pension and post-retirement benefit plans were $12.8 million in 2008. In accordance with the minimum pension contributions
required under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”), as amended by the Pension Protection Act
of 2006 and amended by the Worker, Retiree and Employer Recovery Act of 2008, the Company expects cash contributions
to its pension and post-retirement benefit plans to be approximately $25 million to $30 million in 2009. The Company’s
purchases of permanent wall displays and capital expenditures in 2008 were approximately $50 million and $20 million,
respectively. The Company expects purchases of permanent wall displays and capital expenditures in 2009 to be
approximately $50 million and $20 million, respectively. See “Restructuring Costs, Net” above in this Form 10-K for
discussion of the Company’s expected uses of funds in connection with its various restructuring programs.
The Company has undertaken, and continues to assess, refine and implement, a number of programs to efficiently
manage its cash and working capital including, among other things, programs to reduce inventory levels over time,
centralized purchasing to secure discounts and efficiencies in procurement, and providing additional discounts to U.S.
customers for timely payment of receivables, careful management of accounts payable and targeted controls on general and
administrative spending.
Continuing to execute the Company’s business strategy could include taking advantage of additional opportunities to
reposition, repackage or reformulate one or more brands or product lines, launching additional new products, acquiring
businesses or brands, further refining the Company’s approach to retail merchandising and/or taking further actions to
optimize its manufacturing, sourcing and organizational size and structure. Any of these actions, whose intended purpose
would be to create value through profitable growth, could result in the Company making investments and/or recognizing
charges related to executing against such opportunities.
The Company expects that operating revenues, cash on hand and funds available for borrowing under the 2006
Revolving Credit Facility and other permitted lines of credit will be sufficient to enable the Company to cover its operating
expenses for 2009, including cash requirements in connection with the payment of operating expenses, including expenses
in connection with the execution of the Company’s business strategy, purchases of permanent wall displays, capital
expenditure requirements, payments in connection with the Company’s restructuring programs, severance not otherwise
included in the Company’s restructuring programs, debt service payments

and costs and regularly scheduled pension and post-retirement plan contributions and benefit payments. As a result of the
decline in U.S. and global financial markets in 2008, the market value of the Company’s pension fund assets declined, which
has the effect of reducing the funded status of such plans. At the same time, the discount rate used to value the Company’s
pension obligation increased, which partially offset the effect of the asset decline. While these conditions did not have a
significant impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity during 2008, the Company expects
that these factors, absent a significant increase in pension plan asset values, will result in increased cash contributions to
the Company’s pension plans in 2010 and beyond than otherwise would have been expected before the decline in pension
plan asset values in 2008.
There can be no assurance that available funds will be sufficient to meet the Company’s cash requirements on a
consolidated basis. If the Company’s anticipated level of revenues are not achieved because of, for example, decreased
consumer spending in response to weak economic conditions or weakness in the cosmetics category in the mass retail
channel; adverse changes in currency; decreased sales of the Company’s products as a result of increased competitive
activities by the Company’s competitors; changes in consumer purchasing habits, including with respect to shopping
channels, retailer inventory management, retailer space reconfigurations or reductions in retailer display space; less than
anticipated results from the Company’s existing or new products or from its advertising and/or marketing plans; or if the
Company’s expenses, including, without limitation, for advertising and promotions or for returns related to any reduction of
retail space, product discontinuances or otherwise, exceed the anticipated level of expenses, the Company’s current sources
of funds may be insufficient to meet the Company’s cash requirements.
In the event of a decrease in demand for the Company’s products, reduced sales, lack of increases in demand and
sales, changes in consumer purchasing habits, including with respect to shopping channels, retailer inventory management,
retailer space reconfigurations or reductions in retailer display space, product discontinuances and/or advertising and
promotion expenses or returns expenses exceeding its expectations or less than anticipated results from the Company’s
existing or new products or from its advertising and/or marketing plans, any such development, if significant, could reduce
the Company’s revenues and could adversely affect Products Corporation’s ability to comply with certain financial
covenants under the 2006 Credit Agreements and in such event the Company could be required to take measures, including,
among other things, reducing discretionary spending.
(See Item 1A, “Risk Factors — The Company’s ability to service its debt and meet its cash requirements depends on
many factors, including achieving anticipated levels of revenue and expenses. If such revenue or expense levels prove to be
other than as anticipated, the Company may be unable to meet its cash requirements or Products Corporation may be unable
to meet the requirements of the financial covenants under the 2006 Credit Agreements, which could have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or results of operations”; “— Limits on Products Corporation’s
borrowing capacity under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility may affect the Company’s ability to finance its operations”;
“— The Company may be unable to increase its sales through the Company’s primary distribution channels, which could
reduce the Company’s net sales and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and/or
results of operations”; and “ — Restrictions and covenants in Products Corporation’s debt agreements limit its ability to
take certain actions and impose consequences in the event of failure to comply”).
If the Company is unable to satisfy its cash requirements from the sources identified above or comply with its debt
covenants, the Company could be required to adopt one or more of the following alternatives:
• delaying, reducing or revising the Company’s restructuring programs;
40

There can be no assurance that the Company would be able to take any of the actions referred to above because of a
variety of commercial or market factors or constraints in Products Corporation’s debt instruments, including, without
limitation, market conditions being unfavorable for an equity or debt issuance, additional capital contributions and/or loans
not being available from affiliates and/or third parties, or that the transactions may not be permitted under the terms of
Products Corporation’s various debt instruments then in effect, such as due to restrictions on the incurrence of debt,
incurrence of liens, asset dispositions and related party transactions. In addition, such actions, if taken, may not enable the
Company to satisfy its cash requirements or enable Products Corporation to comply with its debt covenants if the actions
do not generate a sufficient amount of additional capital. (See Item 1A, “Risk Factors” for further discussion of risks
associated with the Company’s business).
The terms of the 2006 Credit Agreements, the indenture governing the 91/2% Senior Notes and the MacAndrews &
Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement generally restrict Products Corporation from paying dividends or making
distributions, except that Products Corporation is permitted to pay dividends and make distributions to Revlon, Inc. to
enable Revlon, Inc., among other things, to pay expenses incidental to being a public holding company, including, among
other things, professional fees, such as legal, accounting and insurance fees, regulatory fees, such as SEC filing fees, NYSE
listing fees and other expenses related to being a public holding company and, subject to certain limitations, to pay
dividends or make distributions in certain circumstances to finance the purchase by Revlon, Inc. of its Class A Common
Stock in connection with the delivery of such Class A Common Stock to grantees under the Third Amended and Restated
Revlon, Inc. Stock Plan (the “Stock Plan”).
As a result of dealing with suppliers and vendors in a number of foreign countries, Products Corporation enters into
foreign currency forward exchange contracts and option contracts from time to time to hedge certain cash flows
denominated in foreign currencies. The foreign currency forward exchange contracts are entered into primarily for the
purpose of hedging anticipated inventory purchases and certain intercompany payments denominated in foreign currencies
and generally have maturities of less than one year. There were foreign currency forward exchange contracts with a notional
amount of $41.0 million outstanding at December 31, 2008. The fair value of foreign currency forward exchange contracts
outstanding at December 31, 2008 was $2.0 million.

upon assumptions regarding the amount of debt outstanding under the 2006 Credit Facilities and assumed interest rates. (See “ Recent
Developments”). In addition, this amount reflects the impact of the 2007 Interest Rate Swap and 2008 Interest Rate Swap, each covering
$150 million notional amount under the 2006 T erm Loan Facility, which resulted in an effective weighted average interest rate of 6.6%

Off-Balance Sheet Transactions

The Company does not maintain any off-balance sheet transactions, arrangements, obligations or other relationships
with unconsolidated entities or others that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on the Company’s
financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital
expenditures or capital resources.
Discussion of Critical Accounting Policies

In the ordinary course of its business, the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the
reporting of results of operations and financial condition in the preparation of its financial statements in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. Actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and
assumptions. The Company believes that the following discussion addresses the Company’s most critical accounting
policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and results and
require management’s most difficult, subjective and complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates
about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain.
Sales Returns:
The Company allows customers to return their unsold products when they meet certain company-established criteria
as outlined in the Company’s trade terms. The Company regularly reviews and revises, when deemed necessary, the
Company’s estimates of sales returns based primarily upon actual returns, planned product discontinuances and
promotional sales, which would permit customers to return items based upon the Company’s trade terms. The Company
records estimated sales returns as a reduction to sales and cost of sales, and an increase in accrued liabilities and
inventories.
Returned products, which are recorded as inventories, are valued based upon the amount that the Company expects to
realize upon their subsequent disposition. The physical condition and marketability of the returned products are the major
factors the Company considers in estimating realizable value. Cost of sales includes the cost of refurbishment of returned
products. Actual returns, as well as realized values on returned products, may differ significantly, either favorably or
unfavorably, from the Company’s estimates if factors such as product discontinuances, customer inventory levels or
competitive conditions differ from the Company’s estimates and expectations and, in the case of actual returns, if economic
conditions differ significantly from the Company’s estimates and expectations.
42
Table of Contents
Trade Support Costs:

In order to support the retail trade, the Company has various performance-based arrangements with retailers to
reimburse them for all or a portion of their promotional activities related to the Company’s products. The Company regularly
reviews and revises, when deemed necessary, estimates of costs to the Company for these promotions based on estimates
of what has been incurred by the retailers. Actual costs incurred by the Company may differ significantly if factors such as
the level and success of the retailers’ programs, as well as retailer participation levels, differ from the Company’s estimates
and expectations.
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is principally determined by the first-in, first-out
method. The Company records adjustments to the value of inventory based upon its forecasted plans to sell its inventories,
as well as planned discontinuances. The physical condition (e.g., age and quality) of the inventories is also considered in
establishing its valuation. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly, either favorably or unfavorably,
from the amounts that the Company may ultimately realize upon the disposition of inventories if future economic
conditions, customer inventory levels, product discontinuances, return levels or competitive conditions differ from the
Company’s estimates and expectations.
Pension Benefits:
The Company sponsors both funded and unfunded pension and other retirement plans in various forms covering
employees who meet the applicable eligibility requirements. The Company uses several statistical and other factors in an
attempt to estimate future events in calculating the liability and expense related to these plans. These factors include
assumptions about the discount rate, expected long-term return on plan assets and rate of future compensation increases as
determined annually by the Company, within certain guidelines, which assumptions would be subject to revisions if
significant events occur during the year. The Company uses December 31st as its measurement date for defined benefit
pension plan obligations and assets.
The Company selected a weighted-average discount rate of 6.35% in 2008, representing an increase from the 6.24%
weighted-average discount rate selected in 2007 for the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans. The Company
selected an average discount rate for the Company’s international defined benefit pension plans of 6.4% in 2008,
representing an increase from the 5.7% average discount rate selected in 2007. The discount rates are used to measure the
benefit obligations at the measurement date and the net periodic benefit cost for the subsequent calendar year and are reset
annually using data available at the measurement date. The changes in the discount rates used for 2008 were primarily due
to increasing long-term interest yields on high-quality corporate bonds during 2008. At December 31, 2008, the increase in
the discount rates from December 31, 2007 had the effect of decreasing the Company’s projected pension benefit obligation
by approximately $11.6 million. For fiscal 2009, the Company expects that the aforementioned increase in the discount rate
will have the effect of decreasing the net periodic benefit cost for its U.S. and international defined benefit pension plans by
approximately $0.6 million. (See “Overview — Other Factors”).
Each year during the first quarter, the Company selects an expected long-term rate of return on its pension plan assets.
For the Company’s U.S. defined benefit pension plans, the expected long-term rate of return on the pension plan assets
used in 2008 (based upon data available in March 2008 when the Company filed its Form 10-K for the year ended
December 31, 2007 and before the significant declines in the financial markets in late 2008) was 8.25%, representing a
decrease from the 8.5% rate used in 2007. The average expected long-term rate of return used for the Company’s
international plans in 2008 was 6.9%, representing an increase from the 6.7% average rate used in 2007.
43
Table of Contents
The table below reflects the Company’s estimates of the possible effects of changes in the discount rates and expected
long-term rates of return on its 2008 net periodic benefit costs and its projected benefit obligation at December 31, 2008 for
the Company’s principal defined benefit pension plans:

be n e fit costs obligation be n e fit costs obligation
Discount rate $ (0.2) $ (15.0) $ 0.7 $ 15.7
Expected long-term rate of return (1.0) — 1.2 —
The rate of future compensation increases is another assumption used by the Company’s third party actuarial
consultants for pension accounting. The rate of future compensation increases used in 2008 and in 2007 remained
unchanged at 4.0% for the U.S. defined benefit pension plans. In addition, the Company’s actuarial consultants also use
other factors such as withdrawal and mortality rates. The actuarial assumptions used by the Company may differ materially
from actual results due to changing market and economic conditions, higher or lower withdrawal rates or longer or shorter
life spans of participants, among other things. Differences from these assumptions could significantly impact the actual
amount of net periodic benefit cost and liability recorded by the Company.
Income Taxes:
The Company records income taxes based on amounts payable with respect to the current year and includes the effect
of deferred taxes. The effective tax rate reflects statutory tax rates, tax-planning opportunities available in various
jurisdictions in which the Company operates, and the Company’s estimate of the ultimate outcome of various tax audits and
issues. Determining the Company’s effective tax rate and evaluating tax positions requires significant judgment.
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the future impact of differences between the financial
statement carrying amounts of assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases, as well as for operating loss and tax
credit carryforwards. The Company measures deferred tax assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates expected to apply to
taxable income in the years in which management expects that the Company will recover or settle those differences. The
Company has established valuation allowances for deferred tax assets when management has determined that it is not more
likely than not that the Company will realize a tax benefit.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. This statement clarifies the definition
of fair value of assets and liabilities, establishes a framework for measuring fair value of assets and liabilities and expands
the disclosures on fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.
However, the FASB deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157 until the fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 as
it relates to the fair value measurement requirements for nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are initially measured at fair
value, but not measured at fair value in subsequent periods. These nonfinancial assets include goodwill and other
indefinite-lived intangible assets which are included within other assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 157, the Company
has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 with respect to financial assets and liabilities effective as of January 1, 2008
and its adoption did not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition. The Company will adopt
SFAS No. 157 for nonfinancial assets and liabilities effective as of January 1, 2009 and does not expect that its adoption will
have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations or financial condition.
The fair value framework under SFAS No. 157 requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based
upon the assumptions used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas
Level 3, if applicable, generally would require significant management judgment. The three
44
Table of Contents
levels for categorizing assets and liabilities under SFAS No. 157’s fair value measurement requirements are as follows:
• Level 1: Fair valuing the asset or liability using observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities;
• Level 2: Fair valuing the asset or liability using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the
applicable asset or liability, either directly or indirectly; such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical)
assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are
not active; and
• Level 3: Fair valuing the asset or liability using unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions.
As of December 31, 2008 the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, namely its foreign currency
forward exchange contracts and Interest Rate Swaps, are categorized as presented in the table below:
Total Le ve l 1 Le ve l 2 Le ve l 3

Liabilities
Total liabilities at fair value $ 6.7 $ — $ 6.7 $ —
(a) Based on three-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR index.

(b) Based on observable market transactions of spot and forward rates.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations”. This statement establishes principles
and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and goodwill acquired, and it provides
guidance for disclosures about business combinations. SFAS No. 141R requires all assets acquired, the liabilities assumed
and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree be recognized at their fair values at the acquisition date. SFAS No. 141R
also requires the acquirer to expense acquisition costs as incurred and to expense restructuring costs in the periods
subsequent to the acquisition date. In addition, SFAS No. 141R also requires the acquirer to recognize changes in valuation
allowances on acquired deferred tax assets in its statement of operations on financial condition. These changes in deferred
tax benefits were previously recognized through a corresponding reduction to goodwill. With the exception of provisions
regarding acquired deferred taxes, which are applicable to all business combinations, SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively
to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The
Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 141R effective as of January 1, 2009 and expects that its adoption will not
have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities —
An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”. This statement is intended to improve financial reporting of derivative
instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments; (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related
interpretations; and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items affect an entity’s financial position, financial
performance and cash flows. The provisions of SFAS No. 161 are effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15,
2008. See Note 10, “Financial Instruments — Derivative Financial Instruments” for the Company’s disclosures required
under SFAS No. 161. The Company has adopted the
45
Table of Contents
provisions of SFAS No. 161 as of December 31, 2008 and its adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s
results of operations or financial condition.
Inflation
The Company’s costs are affected by inflation and the effects of inflation may be experienced by the Company in
future periods. Management believes, however, that such effects have not been material to the Company during the past
three years in the U.S. and in foreign non-hyperinflationary countries. The Company operates in certain countries around
the world, such as Argentina and Venezuela, which have in the past experienced hyperinflation. In hyperinflationary foreign
countries, the Company attempts to mitigate the effects of inflation by increasing prices in line with inflation, where
possible, and efficiently managing its costs and working capital levels.
Subsequent Events
None.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Sensitivity
The Company has exposure to changing interest rates primarily under the 2006 Term Loan Facility and 2006 Revolving
Credit Facility. The Company manages interest rate risk through the use of a combination of fixed and floating rate debt. The
Company from time to time makes use of derivative financial instruments to adjust its fixed and floating rate ratio. In
September 2007 and April 2008, Products Corporation executed the two floating-to-fixed Interest Rate Swaps, each with a
notional amount of $150.0 million over a period of two years relating to indebtedness under Products Corporation’s 2006
Term Loan Facility. The Company designated the Interest Rate Swaps as cash flow hedges of the variable interest rate
payments on Products Corporation’s 2006 Term Loan Facility. (See “Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital
Resources — Interest Rate Swap Transactions”).
The table below provides information about the Company’s indebtedness that is sensitive to changes in interest rates.
The table presents cash flows with respect to principal on indebtedness and related weighted average interest rates by
expected maturity dates. Weighted average variable rates are based on implied forward rates in the U.S. Dollar LIBOR yield
curve at December 31, 2008. The information is presented in U.S. dollar equivalents, which is the Company’s reporting
currency.
Exchange Rate Sensitivity

The Company manufactures and sells its products in a number of countries throughout the world and, as a result, is
exposed to movements in foreign currency exchange rates. In addition, a portion of the Company’s borrowings are
denominated in foreign currencies, which are also subject to market risk associated with exchange rate movement. The
Company from time to time hedges major foreign currency cash exposures through foreign exchange forward and option
contracts. Products Corporation enters into these contracts with major financial institutions in an attempt to minimize
counterparty risk. These contracts generally have a duration of less than twelve months and are primarily against the
U.S. dollar. In addition, Products Corporation enters into foreign
46

currency swaps to hedge intercompany financing transactions. The Company does not hold or issue financial instruments
for trading purposes.

February 1, 2008 used the $170 million proceeds from such loan to repay in full the balance of the approximately $167.4 million
aggregate remaining principal amount of P roducts Corporation’s 8 5 /8 % Senior Subordinated Notes, which matured on February 1, 2008. In
September 2008, P roducts Corporation used $63.0 million of the net proceeds from the Bozzano Sale T ransaction to repay $63.0 million
in aggregate principal amount of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated T erm Loan. Following such partial repayment, there
remained outstanding $107 million in aggregate principal amount under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated T erm Loan. T he
MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated T erm Loan bears an annual interest rate of 11%, which is payable in arrears in cash on
March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year and, pursuant to a November 2008 amendment, matures on the earlier of
(1) the date that Revlon, Inc. issues equity with gross proceeds of at least $107 million, which proceeds would be used to repay the
$107 million remaining aggregate principal balance of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated T erm Loan, or (2) August 1, 2010.
(See “ Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources — 2008 Repayment of the 85 /8 % Senior Subordinated Notes with the
MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated T erm Loan”).
(c) Based upon the implied forward rate from the U.S. Dollar LIBOR yield curve at December 31, 2008, this reflects the impact of the 2007
Interest Rate Swap and 2008 Interest Rate Swap, each covering $150 million notional amount under the 2006 T erm Loan Facility, which
would result in an effective weighted average interest rate of 5.9% on the 2006 T erm Loan Facility at December 31, 2009.

(a) Disclosure Controls and Procedures. The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are
designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the Company’s reports under the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended, is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and
forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Company’s Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. The

procedures were effective.
(b) Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. The Company’s management is
responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Company’s internal
control system was designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the
preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles and includes those policies and procedures that:
• pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and
dispositions of its assets;
• provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of its financial
statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that its receipts and expenditures are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of its management and directors; and
• provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or
disposition of the Company’s assets that could have a material effect on its financial statements.

Table of Contents
Internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements due to its inherent limitations.
Management’s projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as to future
periods are subject to the risks that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree
of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
The Company’s management assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as
of December 31, 2008 and in making this assessment used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework in accordance with the standards of
the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).

financial reporting was effective.

internal control over financial reporting. Management’s report was not subject to attestation by the Company’s registered
public accounting firm pursuant to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit the Company to
provide only management’s report in this annual report.
(c) Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. There have not been any changes in the Company’s
internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2008 that have materially affected, or
are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

Forward Looking Statements

This Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2008, as well as other public documents and
statements of the Company, contain forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties, which are based on
the beliefs, expectations, estimates, projections, forecasts, plans, anticipations, targets, outlooks, initiatives, visions,
objectives, strategies, opportunities, drivers, focus and intents of the Company’s management. While the Company
believes that its estimates and assumptions are reasonable, the Company cautions that it is very difficult to predict the
impact of known factors, and, of course, it is impossible for the Company to anticipate all factors that could affect its results.
The Company’s actual results may differ materially from those discussed in such forward-looking statements. Such
statements include, without limitation, the Company’s expectations and estimates (whether qualitative or quantitative) as to:
(i) the Company’s future financial performance;
(ii) the effect on sales of decreased consumer spending in response to weak economic conditions or weakness in
the cosmetics category in the mass retail channel; adverse changes in currency; decreased sales of the
Company’s products as a result of increased competitive activities by the Company’s competitors, changes in
consumer purchasing habits, including, with respect to shopping channels; retailer inventory management;
retailer space reconfigurations or reductions in retailer display space; less than anticipated results from the
Company’s existing or new products or from its advertising and/or marketing plans; or if the Company’s
expenses, including, without limitation, for advertising and promotions or for returns related to any reduction of
retail space, product discontinuances or otherwise, exceed the anticipated level of expenses;
(iii) the Company’s belief that the continued execution of its business strategy could include taking advantage of
additional opportunities to reposition, repackage or reformulate one or more of its brands or product lines,
launching additional new products, acquiring businesses or brands, further refining its approach to retail
merchandising and/or taking further actions to optimize its manufacturing, sourcing and organizational size and
structure, any of which, whose intended purpose would be to create value
49
Table of Contents
through profitable growth, could result in the Company making investments and/or recognizing charges related
to executing against such opportunities;
(iv) our expectations regarding our business strategy, including our plans to (a) build and leverage our brands,
particularly the Revlon brand, across the categories in which we compete, and, in addition to the Revlon and
Almay brand color cosmetics, our seeking to drive growth in other beauty care categories, including women’s
hair color, beauty tools, anti-perspirants/deodorants and skincare and our continuing focus on our key growth
drivers, including innovative, high-quality, consumer-preferred new products; effective integrated brand
communication; appropriate levels of advertising and promotion; and superb execution with our retail partners,
along with disciplined spending and rigorous cost control; (b) improve the execution of its strategies and plans
and provide for continued improvement in our organizational capability through enabling and developing our
employees, including primarily through a focus on recruitment and retention of skilled people, providing
opportunities for professional development, as well as new and expanded responsibilities and roles for
employees who have demonstrated capability and rewarding our employees for success; (c) continue to
strengthen our international business and to continue to focus on improving our operating performance in our
international business; (d) improve our operating profit margins and cash flow, including our focus on
improving our financial performance through a steady improvement in operating profit margins and cash flow
generation; and (e) continue to improve our capital structure, including our focus on strenghtening our balance
sheet and reducing debt over time;
(v) restructuring activities, restructuring costs, the timing of restructuring payments and the benefits from such
activities;
(vi) the Company’s expectation that operating revenues, cash on hand and funds available for borrowing under
Products Corporation’s 2006 Revolving Credit Facility and other permitted lines of credit will be sufficient to
enable the Company to cover its operating expenses for 2009, including cash requirements referred to in item
(viii) below;
(vii) the Company’s expected principal sources of funds, including operating revenues, cash on hand and funds
available for borrowing under Products Corporation’s 2006 Revolving Credit Facility and other permitted lines
of credit, as well as the availability of funds from refinancing Products Corporation’s indebtedness, selling
assets or operations, capital contributions and/or loans from MacAndrews & Forbes, Revlon, Inc. or the
Company’s other affiliates and/or third parties and/or the sale of additional debt securities of Products
Corporation;
(viii) the Company’s expected principal uses of funds, including amounts required for the payment of operating
expenses, including expenses in connection with the continued execution of the Company’s business strategy,
payments in connection with the Company’s purchases of permanent wall displays, capital expenditure
requirements, restructuring programs, severance not otherwise included in the Company’s restructuring
programs, debt service payments and costs and regularly scheduled pension and post-retirement benefit plan
contributions and benefit payments, and its estimates of operating expenses, the amount and timing of
restructuring costs and payments, severance costs and payments, debt service payments (including payments
required under Products Corporation’s debt instruments), cash contributions to the Company’s pension plans
and post-retirement benefit plans and benefit payments, purchases of permanent wall displays and capital
expenditures;
(ix) matters concerning the Company’s market-risk sensitive instruments, including the Interest Rate Swaps, which
are intended to reduce the effects of floating interest rates and the Company’s exposure to interest rate
volatility by hedging against fluctuations in variable interest rate payments on the applicable notional amounts
of Products Corporation’s long-term debt under its 2006 Term Loan Facility, as well as the Company’s
expectations as to the counterparty’s performance, including that any loss arising from the non-performance by
the counterparty would not be material;
(x) the expected effects of the Company’s adoption of certain accounting principles;
50
Table of Contents
(xi) the Company’s plan to efficiently manage its cash and working capital, including, among other things,
programs to reduce inventory levels over time, centralized purchasing to secure discounts and efficiencies in
procurement, and providing additional discounts to U.S. customers for timely payment of receivables, carefully
managing accounts payable and targeted controls on general and administrative spending;
(xii) the Company’s expectations regarding the impact of future pension expense and cash contributions, including
that as a result of the decline in U.S. and global financial markets in 2008, the market value of the Company’s
pension fund assets declined, which has the effect of reducing the funded status of such plans, which absent a
significant increase in pension plan asset values, will result in increased cash contributions to the Company’s
pension plans in 2010 and beyond than otherwise would have been expected before the decline in pension plan
asset values in 2008 and that its results in 2009 will be impacted from increased pension expense due to a
significant decline in pension asset values in 2008; and
(xiii) the Company’s expectations regarding the impact of foreign currency fluctuations, including that its results in
2009 may be further affected by adverse foreign currency fluctuations and uncertain global economic
conditions (as well as increased pension expense) and the Company’s objective to maximize its business results
in light of these conditions.
Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about the Company’s beliefs and expectations, are
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by, among other things, the use of forward-
looking language such as “estimates,” “objectives,” “visions,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “focus,” “drive towards,” “plans,”
“targets,” “strategies,” “opportunities,” “drivers,” “believes,” “intends,” “outlooks,” “initiatives,” “expects,” “scheduled
to,” “anticipates,” “seeks,” “may,” “will,” or “should” or the negative of those terms, or other variations of those terms or
comparable language, or by discussions of strategies, targets, models or intentions. Forward-looking statements speak only
as of the date they are made, and except for the Company’s ongoing obligations under the U.S. federal securities laws, the
Company undertakes no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new
information, future events or otherwise.
Investors are advised, however, to consult any additional disclosures the Company made or may make in its Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K, in each case filed with the SEC in 2009 and 2008 (which, among
other places, can be found on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov). The information available from time to time on
such website shall not be deemed incorporated by reference into this Annual Report on Form 10-K. A number of important
factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. In addition to
factors that may be described in the Company’s filings with the SEC, including this filing, the following factors, among
others, could cause the Company’s actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking
statements made by the Company:

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholder
Revlon Consumer Products Corporation:
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Revlon Consumer Products Corporation and
subsidiaries as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the related consolidated statements of operations, stockholder’s
deficiency and comprehensive income (loss), and cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended
December 31, 2008. In connection with our audits of the consolidated financial statements, we also have audited the
financial statement schedule as listed on the index on page F-1. These consolidated financial statements and the financial
statement schedule are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on
these consolidated financial statements and the financial statement schedule based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United
States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe
that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Revlon Consumer Products Corporation and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, and the results of
their operations and their cash flows for each of the years in the three-year period ended December 31, 2008, in conformity
with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Also in our opinion, the related financial statement schedule, when
considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material
respects, the information set forth therein.
As discussed in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company adopted FASB Interpretation No. 48,
“Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” as of January 1, 2007 and SFAS No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for
Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans — An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 87, 88, 106 and 132(R)”,
as of December 31, 2006 for the recognition and disclosure provisions and as of January 1, 2007 for the measurement date
provisions.

(a) Amount relates to the 2006 adjustment for minimum pension liability in accordance with SFAS No. 87, “ Employers’ Accounting for Pensions”. (See Note 12,
“ Savings Plan, Pension and Post-retirement Benefits”).
(b) In December 2006, the Company adopted SFAS No. 158, “ Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans” (“ SFAS No. 158”). As
a result, a net adjustment of $(24.6) million was recorded to the ending balance of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss. (See Note 12, “ Savings Plan, Pension and
Post-retirement Benefits”).
(c) Due to the Company’s early adoption of the provisions under SFAS No. 158, effective as of January 1, 2007 requiring a measurement date for determining defined benefit
plan assets and obligations using the Company’s fiscal year end of December 31st, rather than using a September 30th measurement date, the Company recognized a net
reduction to the beginning balance of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss of $10.3 million, as set forth in the table above, which is comprised of (1) a $9.4 million
reduction to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss due to the revaluation of the pension liability as a result of the change in the measurement date and (2) a
$0.9 million reduction to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss of amortization of prior service costs, actuarial gains/losses and return on assets over the period from
October 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006. In addition, the Company recognized a $2.9 million increase to the beginning balance of Accumulated Deficit, as set forth in the
table above, which represents the total net periodic benefit costs incurred from October 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006. (See Note 12, “ Savings Plan, Pension and Post-
retirement Benefits”).
F-5
Table of Contents
(d) Due to the Company’s adoption of FIN 48, “ Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of SFAS No. 109” effective for the fiscal year beginning
January 1, 2007, the Company reduced its total tax reserves by $26.8 million, which resulted in a corresponding reduction to the accumulated deficit component of
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss), as set forth in the table above. (See Note 11, “ Income Taxes”).
(e) Due to the Company’s use of derivative financial instruments, the net amount of hedge accounting derivative losses recognized by the Company, as set forth in the table
above, pertains to (1) the reversal of $0.4 million of net losses accumulated in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss at January 1, 2007 upon the Company’s election
during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2007 to discontinue the application of hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133, “ Accounting for Derivative Instruments and
Hedging Activities” for certain derivative financial instruments, as the Company no longer designates its foreign currency forward exchange contracts as hedging
instruments; (2) the reversal of a $0.4 million gain pertaining to a net receipt settlement in December 2007 under the terms of Products Corporation’s floating-to-fixed
interest rate swap transaction, executed in September 2007, with a notional amount of $150 million relating to indebtedness under Products Corporation’s 2006 Term
Loan Facility; and (3) $1.7 million of net losses accumulated in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss pertaining to the change in fair value of the above-mentioned
floating-to fixed interest rate swap. The Company has designated Products Corporation’s floating-to-fixed interest rate swap executed in September 2007 , as well as
Products Corporation’s floating-to-fixed interest rate swap transaction executed in April 2008, with a notional amount of $150 million relating to indebtedness under
Products Corporation’s 2006 Term Loan Facility as hedging instruments and accordingly applies hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133 to such swap transactions.
(See Note 10, “ Financial Instruments” to the Consolidated Financial Statements and the discussion of Critical Accounting Policies in this Form 10-K).
(f) Amount represents a change in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) as a result of the amortization of unrecognized prior service costs and actuarial
gains/losses arising during 2007 and 2008 related to the Company’s pension and other post-retirement plans. (See Note 14, “ Accumulated Other Comprehensive
Loss”).
(g) For detail on the Bozzano Sale Transaction (as hereinafter defined) see Note 2, “ Discontinued Operations”.
(h) Amount relates to (1) net unrealized losses of $5.3 million on the 2007 and 2008 Interest Rate Swaps (see Note 10, “ Financial Instruments” to the Consolidated
Financial Statements and the discussion of Critical Accounting Policies in this Form 10-K) and (2) the reversal of amounts recorded in Accumulated Other
Comprehensive Income (Loss) pertaining to net settlement receipts of $0.2 million and net settlement payments of $2.2 million on the 2007 and 2008 Interest Rate
Swaps.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(all tabular amounts in millions, except share and per share amounts)
1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of Consolidation and Basis of Presentation:
Revlon Consumer Products Corporation (“Products Corporation” and together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”)
operates in a single segment and manufactures and sells an extensive array of cosmetics, women’s hair color, beauty tools,
fragrances, skincare, anti-perspirants/deodorants and other personal care products. The Company’s principal customers
include large mass volume retailers and chain drug stores in the U.S., as well as certain department stores and other
specialty stores, such as perfumeries, outside the U.S. The Company also sells beauty products to U.S. military exchanges
and commissaries and has a licensing business, pursuant to which the Company licenses certain of its key brand names to
third parties for complementary beauty-related products and accessories.
Products Corporation is a direct wholly-owned operating subsidiary of Revlon, Inc., which is a direct and indirect
majority-owned subsidiary of MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc. (“MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings” and, together with
certain of its affiliates other than the Company, “MacAndrews & Forbes”), a corporation wholly-owned by Ronald O.
Perelman.
The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company after elimination of all
material intercompany balances and transactions.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent
assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
periods presented. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically
and the effects of revisions are reflected in the consolidated financial statements in the period they are determined to be
necessary. Significant estimates made in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements include, but are not limited
to, allowances for doubtful accounts, inventory valuation reserves, expected sales returns and allowances, certain
assumptions related to the recoverability of intangible and long-lived assets, reserves for estimated tax liabilities,
restructuring costs, certain estimates and assumptions used in the calculation of the fair value of stock options issued to
employees and non-employee directors and the derived compensation expense and certain estimates regarding the
calculation of the net periodic benefit costs and the projected benefit obligation for the Company’s pension and other post-
retirement plans, including the expected long term return on pension plan assets and the discount rate used to value the
Company’s year-end pension benefit obligations.
The economic conditions in late 2008 and early 2009 and the volatility in the financial markets in late 2008 and early
2009, both in the U.S. and in many other countries where the Company operates, have contributed and may continue to
contribute to higher unemployment levels, decreased consumer spending, reduced credit availability and/or declining
business and consumer confidence. Such conditions could have an impact on consumer purchases and/or retail customer
purchases of the Company’s products, which could result in a reduction of sales, operating income and cash flows and
could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s significant estimates discussed above and liquidity as discussed in
Note 9, “Long-Term Debt”.
In September 2008, Revlon, Inc. effected a 1-for-10 reverse stock split (the “Reverse Stock Split”) of Revlon, Inc.’s
Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), and Class B common stock, par value
$0.01 per share (the “Class B Common Stock” and together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”). As a
result of the Reverse Stock Split, each ten shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A and Class B Common Stock issued and
outstanding immediately prior to 11:59 p.m. on September 15, 2008 were automatically combined into one share of Class A
Common Stock and Class B Common Stock, respectively.
Certain prior year amounts in this Annual Report on Form 10-K have been adjusted to reflect the reclassification of a
discontinued operation as a result of the Bozzano Sale Transaction (as hereinafter defined) (See
F-8
Table of Contents
Note 2, “Discontinued Operations”) and also retroactively restated to reflect the impact of Revlon, Inc.’s September 2008 1-
for-10 Reverse Stock Split.
Cash and Cash Equivalents:

Cash equivalents are primarily investments in high-quality, short-term money market instruments with original
maturities of three months or less and are carried at cost, which approximates fair value. Cash equivalents were $21.9 million
and $8.1 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Accounts payable includes $11.0 million and $7.4 million of
outstanding checks not yet presented for payment at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
In accordance with borrowing arrangements with certain financial institutions, Products Corporation is permitted to
borrow against its cash balances. The cash available to Products Corporation is the net of the cash position less amounts
supporting these short-term borrowings. The cash balances and related borrowings are shown gross in the Company’s
Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had no such borrowing arrangements
against its cash balances. (See Note 8, “Short-Term Borrowings”).
Accounts Receivable:
Accounts receivable represent payments due to the Company for previously recognized net sales, reduced by an
allowance for doubtful accounts for balances which are estimated to be uncollectible at December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. The Company grants credit terms in the normal course of business to its customers. Trade credit is extended
based upon periodically updated evaluations of each customer’s ability to perform its obligations. The Company does not
normally require collateral or other security to support credit sales. The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined
based on historical experience and ongoing evaluations of the Company’s receivables and evaluations of the risks of
payment. Accounts receivable balances are recorded against the allowance for doubtful accounts when they are deemed
uncollectible. Recoveries of accounts receivable previously recorded against the allowance are recorded in the
Consolidated Statements of Operations when received. At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company’s three largest
customers accounted for an aggregate of approximately 30% and 35%, respectively, of outstanding accounts receivable.
Inventories:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market value. Cost is principally determined by the first-in, first-out
method. The Company records adjustments to the value of inventory based upon its forecasted plans to sell its inventories,
as well as planned product discontinuances. The physical condition (e.g., age and quality) of the inventories is also
considered in establishing the valuation. These adjustments are estimates, which could vary significantly, either favorably
or unfavorably, from the amounts that the Company may ultimately realize upon the disposition of inventories if future
economic conditions, customer inventory levels, product discontinuances, return levels or competitive conditions differ
from the Company’s estimates and expectations.
Property, Plant and Equipment and Other Assets:

Property, plant and equipment is recorded at cost and is depreciated on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful
lives of such assets as follows: land improvements, 20 to 40 years; buildings and improvements, 5 to 45 years; machinery
and equipment, 3 to 17 years; and office furniture and fixtures and capitalized software, 2 to 12 years. Leasehold
improvements are amortized over their estimated useful lives or the terms of the leases, whichever is shorter. Repairs and
maintenance are charged to operations as incurred, and expenditures for additions and improvements are capitalized.
Long-lived assets, including fixed assets and intangibles other than goodwill, are reviewed for impairment whenever
events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If events or
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable, the Company estimates the
undiscounted future cash flows (excluding interest) resulting from the use of the asset and its ultimate disposition. If the
sum of the undiscounted cash flows (excluding interest) is less than the carrying value, the Company recognizes an
impairment loss, measured as the amount by which the carrying value exceeds the fair value of the asset.
F-9
Table of Contents
Included in other assets are net permanent wall displays amounting to approximately $56.1 million and $78.1 million as
of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which are amortized over a period of 1 to 3 years in the U.S. and generally over
3 to 5 years outside of the U.S. In the event of product discontinuances, from time to time the Company may accelerate the
amortization of related permanent wall displays based on the estimated remaining useful life of the asset. Amortization
expense for permanent wall displays for 2008, 2007 and 2006 was $65.8 million, $73.8 million and $85.7 million, respectively.
The Company has included, in other assets, net costs related to the issuance of Products Corporation’s debt instruments
amounting to approximately $16.3 million and $19.1 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, which are
amortized over the terms of the related debt instruments. In addition, the Company has included, in other assets, trademarks,
net, of $6.9 million and $7.8 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, and patents, net, of $0.9 million and
$0.8 million as of December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively. Patents and trademarks are recorded at cost and amortized
ratably over approximately 10 years. Amortization expense for patents and trademarks for 2008, 2007 and 2006 was
$1.9 million, $1.9 million and $2.2 million, respectively.
Intangible Assets Related to Businesses Acquired:

Intangible assets related to businesses acquired principally consist of goodwill, which represents the excess purchase
price over the fair value of assets acquired. The Company accounts for its goodwill and intangible assets in accordance
with SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets”, and does not amortize its goodwill. The Company reviews its
goodwill for impairment at least annually, or whenever events or changes in circumstances would indicate possible
impairment in accordance with SFAS No. 142. The Company performs its annual impairment test of goodwill as of September
30 and performed the annual test as of each of September 30, 2008 and 2007 and concluded that no impairment existed at
either date. The Company operates in one reportable segment, which is also the only reporting unit for purposes of
SFAS No. 142. Since the Company currently only has one reporting unit, all of the goodwill has been assigned to the
enterprise as a whole. The Company compared its estimated fair value of the enterprise as measured by, among other
factors, its market capitalization to its net assets and since the fair value of the enterprise was substantially greater than the
enterprise’s net assets, the Company concluded that as of December 31, 2008 there was no impairment of goodwill. The
amount outstanding for goodwill, net, was $182.5 million and $182.7 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively.
Accumulated amortization of goodwill aggregated $117.4 million and $117.3 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. Amortization of goodwill ceased as of January 1, 2002 upon the Company’s adoption of SFAS No. 142.
In accordance with SFAS No. 142, the Company’s intangible assets with finite useful lives are amortized over their
respective estimated useful lives to their estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment whenever events or
changes in circumstances would indicate possible impairment in accordance with FASB Statement No. 144, “Accounting for
the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets”.
Revenue Recognition:
Sales are recognized when revenue is realized or realizable and has been earned. The Company’s policy is to recognize
revenue when risk of loss and title to the product transfers to the customer. Net sales is comprised of gross revenues less
expected returns, trade discounts and customer allowances, which include costs associated with off-invoice mark-downs
and other price reductions, as well as trade promotions and coupons. These incentive costs are recognized at the later of
the date on which the Company recognizes the related revenue or the date on which the Company offers the incentive. The
Company allows customers to return their unsold products if and when they meet certain Company-established criteria as
outlined in the Company’s trade terms. The Company regularly reviews and revises, when deemed necessary, its estimates
of sales returns based primarily upon the historical rate of actual product returns, planned product discontinuances, new
product launches, estimates of customer inventory and promotional sales, which would permit customers to return items
based upon the Company’s trade terms. The Company records sales returns as a reduction to sales and cost of sales, and
an increase to accrued liabilities and inventories. Returned products, which are recorded as inventories, are valued based
upon the amount that the Company expects to realize upon their subsequent disposition. The physical condition and
marketability of the returned products are the major factors considered by the Company in estimating realizable value.
Actual returns, as well as realized values on returned products, may differ significantly, either favorably or unfavorably,
from the Company’s estimates if factors
F-10
Table of Contents
such as product discontinuances, customer inventory levels or competitive conditions differ from the Company’s estimates
and expectations and, in the case of actual returns, if economic conditions differ significantly from the Company’s estimates
and expectations. Revenues derived from licensing arrangements, including any pre-payments, are recognized in the period
in which they become due and payable, but not before the initial license term commences.
Cost of Sales:
Cost of sales includes all of the costs to manufacture the Company’s products. For products manufactured in the
Company’s own facilities, such costs include raw materials and supplies, direct labor and factory overhead. For products
manufactured for the Company by third-party contractors, such costs represent the amounts invoiced by the contractors.
Cost of sales also includes the cost of refurbishing products returned by customers that will be offered for resale and the
cost of inventory write-downs associated with adjustments of held inventories to net realizable value. These costs are
reflected in the statement of operations when the product is sold and net sales revenues are recognized or, in the case of
inventory write-downs, when circumstances indicate that the carrying value of inventories is in excess of its recoverable
value. Additionally, cost of sales reflects the costs associated with any free products. These incentive costs are recognized
on the later of the date that the Company recognizes the related revenue or the date on which the Company offers the
incentive.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses:

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) include expenses to advertise the Company’s products, such
as television advertising production costs and air-time costs, print advertising costs, promotional displays and consumer
promotions. SG&A also includes the amortization of permanent wall displays and intangible assets, distribution costs (such
as freight and handling), non-manufacturing overhead, principally personnel and related expenses, insurance and
professional fees.
Advertising:
Advertising within SG&A includes television, print and other advertising production costs which are expensed the
first time the advertising takes place. The costs of promotional displays are expensed in the period in which they are
shipped to customers. Advertising expenses were $260.2 million, $287.1 million and $298.0 million for 2008, 2007 and 2006,
respectively, and were included in SG&A in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company also has
various arrangements with customers pursuant to its trade terms to reimburse them for a portion of their advertising costs,
which provide advertising benefits to the Company. Additionally, from time to time the Company may pay fees to customers
in order to expand or maintain shelf space for its products. The costs that the Company incurs for “cooperative” advertising
programs, end cap placement, shelf placement costs and slotting fees, if any, are expensed as incurred and are netted
against revenues on the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations.
Distribution Costs:
Costs, such as freight and handling costs, associated with product distribution are expensed within SG&A when
incurred. Distribution costs were $65.5 million, $65.6 million and $65.1 million for 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively.
Income Taxes:
Income taxes are calculated using the asset and liability method in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 109,
“Accounting for Income Taxes” (“SFAS No. 109”).
Effective as of January 1, 2007, the Company adopted FASB Financial Interpretation Number (“FIN”) 48 (“FIN 48”),
“Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes — an interpretation of SFAS No. 109”. This interpretation provides guidance
on recognition and measurement for uncertainties in income taxes recognized in an enterprise’s financial statements in
accordance with SFAS No. 109. FIN 48 prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute for the financial
statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or expected
F-11
Table of Contents
to be taken in a tax return. FIN 48 also provides guidance on derecognition, classification, interest and penalties, accounting
in interim periods, disclosure and transition. See Note 11, “Income Taxes”.
Research and Development:

Research and development expenditures are expensed as incurred. The amounts charged against earnings in 2008, 2007
and 2006 for research and development expenditures were $24.3 million, $24.4 million and $24.4 million, respectively.
Foreign Currency Translation:

Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates of exchange in effect at the
balance sheet date. Income and expense items are translated at the weighted average exchange rates prevailing during each
period presented. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency transactions are included in the results of operations.
Gains and losses resulting from translation of financial statements of foreign subsidiaries and branches operating in non-
hyperinflationary economies are recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss until either sale or
upon complete or substantially complete liquidation by the Company of its investment in a foreign entity. To the extent that
foreign subsidiaries and branches operate in hyperinflationary economies, non-monetary assets and liabilities are translated
at historical rates and translation adjustments are included in the results of operations.
Classes of Stock:
Products Corporation designated 1,000 shares of preferred stock as the “Series A Preferred Stock”, of which 546 shares
are outstanding and all of which are held by Revlon, Inc. The holder of the Series A Preferred Stock is not entitled to receive
any dividends. The Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to a liquidation preference of $100,000 per share before any
distribution is made to the holder of Products Corporation’s common stock. The holder of the Series A Preferred Stock does
not have any voting rights, except as required by law. The Series A Preferred Stock may be redeemed at any time by
Products Corporation, at its option, for $100,000 per share. However, the terms of Products Corporation’s various debt
agreements currently restrict Products Corporation’s ability to effect such redemption.
Stock-Based Compensation:
Effective as of January 1, 2006, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”)
No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment” (“SFAS No. 123(R)”). This statement replaces SFAS No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-
Based Compensation” (“SFAS No. 123”) and supersedes APB No. 25. SFAS No. 123(R) requires that effective for fiscal
periods ending after December 31, 2005 all stock-based compensation be recognized as an expense, net of the effect of
expected forfeitures, in the financial statements and that such expense be measured at the fair value of the Company’s
stock-based awards and generally recognized over the grantee’s required service period. The Company uses the modified
prospective method of application, which requires recognition of compensation expense on a prospective basis. Therefore,
the Company’s financial statements for fiscal periods ended on or before December 31, 2005 have not been restated to
reflect compensation expense in respect of awards of stock options under the Stock Plan. Under this method, in addition to
reflecting compensation expense for new share-based awards granted on or after January 1, 2006, expense is also recognized
to reflect the remaining service period (generally, the vesting period of the award) of awards that had been included in the
Company’s pro forma disclosures in fiscal periods ended on or before December 31, 2005. For stock option awards, the
Company has continued to recognize stock option compensation expense using the accelerated attribution method under
FASB FIN 28, “Accounting for Stock Appreciation Rights and Other Variable Stock Option or Award Plans”. For stock
option awards granted after January 1, 2006, the Company recognizes stock option compensation expense based on the
estimated grant date fair value using the Black-Scholes option valuation model using a straight-line amortization method.
SFAS No. 123(R) also requires that excess tax benefits related to stock option exercises be reflected as financing cash
inflows instead of operating cash inflows. For the year ended December 31, 2008, no adjustments have been made to the
cash flow statement, as any excess tax benefits that would have been realized have been fully provided for, given the
Company’s historical losses and deferred tax valuation allowance.

Derivative Financial Instruments:

The Company is exposed to certain risks relating to it ongoing business operations. The primary risks managed by
using derivative financial instruments are foreign currency exchange rate risk and interest rate risk. The Company uses
derivative financial instruments, primarily (1) foreign currency forward exchange contracts, for the purpose of managing
foreign currency exchange risks by reducing certain effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates and
(2) interest rate swap transactions for the purpose of managing interest rate risks by offseting certain effects of floating
interest rates associated with a portion of Products Corporation’s indebtedness. Products Corporation’s foreign currency
forward exchange contracts are entered into primarily for the purpose of hedging anticipated inventory purchases and
certain intercompany payments denomiated in foreign currencies and generally have maturities of less than one year. In
September 2007 and April 2008, Products Corporation executed two floating-to-fixed interest rate swap transactions (the
“2007 Interest Rate Swap” and the “2008 Interest Rate Swap” and together the “Interest Rate Swaps”), each with a notional
amount of $150.0 million over a period of two years relating to indebtedness under Products Corporation’s 2006 Term Loan
Facility (as hereinafter defined).
Foreign Currency Forward Exchange Contracts
While the Company continues to utilize derivative financial instruments, in the case of foreign currency forward
exchange contracts, for the purpose of reducing the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates in connection
with its inventory purchases and intercompany payments, during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2007 the Company
elected to discontinue the application of hedge accounting under Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”)
No. 133, “Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” (“SFAS No. 133”) effective as of January 1, 2007,
in respect of such foreign currency contracts. Accordingly, effective as of January 1, 2007, the Company no longer
designates its foreign currency forward exchange contracts as hedging instruments. By removing such designation, any
changes in the fair value of Products Corporation’s foreign currency forward exchange contracts subsequent to the
Company’s discontinuance of hedge accounting are recognized in the Company’s earnings. Also, upon the removal of the
hedging designation, any unrecognized gains (losses) accumulated in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss related to
the Company’s prior application of hedge accounting in respect of such foreign currency contracts was fixed and was
recognized in the Company’s earnings as the underlying transactions pertaining to the derivative instrument occur. If the
underlying transaction is not forecasted to occur, the related gain (loss) accumulated in Accumulated Other Comprehensive
Loss is recognized in the Company’s earnings immediately.
The U.S. dollar notional amount of the foreign currency forward exchange contracts outstanding at December 31, 2008
and 2007 was $41.0 million and $23.6 million, respectively. During 2008, net gains of $1.9 million from expired derivative
instruments were recognized into earnings. At December 31, 2007, the change in the fair value of Products Corporation’s
unexpired foreign currency forward exchange contracts subsequent to the Company’s discontinuance of hedge accounting
effective as of January 1, 2007 was $0.1 million, which was recognized in the Company’s earnings. During 2007, net losses of
$2.2 million from expired derivative instruments related to foreign currency forward exchange contracts were recognized into
earnings and net derivative losses related to foreign currency forward exchange contracts of $0.4 million were reclassified
from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss into the Company’s earnings as a result of discontinuing the application of
hedge accounting.
During 2008, 2007 and 2006, net derivative losses related to foreign currency forward exchange contracts of nil,
$0.4 million and $0.3 million, respectively, were reclassified to the Company’s Statement of Operations. The fair value of the
foreign currency foreign exchange contracts outstanding at December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $2.0 million and $(0.3) million,
respectively and is recorded in “Prepaid expenses and other” in the amount of $2.2 million and $0.1 million, respectively, and
in “Accrued expenses and other” in the amount of $0.2 million and $0.4 million, respectively in the Company’s
accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. There were no unrecognized gains (losses) related to foreign currency forward
exchange contracts accumulated in other comprehensive loss at December 31, 2008 and 2007.

Interest Rate Swap Transactions
In September 2007 and April 2008, Products Corporation executed two floating-to-fixed interest rate swap transactions,
each with a notional amount of $150.0 million over a period of two years relating to indebtedness under Products
Corporation’s 2006 Term Loan Facility. The Company designated the Interest Rate Swaps as cash flow hedges of the
variable interest rate payments under Products Corporation’s 2006 Term Loan Facility with respect to the $150.0 million
notional amount under each such Interest Rate Swap. Under the terms of the 2007 Interest Rate Swap and the 2008 Interest
Rate Swap, Products Corporation is required to pay to the counterparty a quarterly fixed interest rate of 4.692% and 2.66%,
respectively, on the $150.0 million notional amount under each Interest Rate Swap commencing in December 2007 and July
2008, respectively, while receiving a variable interest rate payment from the counterparty equal to three-month U.S. dollar
LIBOR (which effectively fixed the interest rate on such notional amounts at 8.692% and 6.66%, respectively, for the 2-year
term of each Interest Rate Swap). While the Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of the counterparty’s non-
performance, if any, the Company’s exposure is limited to the net amount that Products Corporation would have received
from the counterparty over the remaining balance of each Interest Rate Swap’s two-year term. The Company does not
anticipate any non-performance and, furthermore, even in the case of any non-performance by the counterparty, the
Company expects that any such loss would not be material.
Products Corporation’s Interest Rate Swaps qualify for hedge accounting treatment under SFAS No. 133 and have
been designated as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of the changes in fair value of the Interest Rate
Swaps is reported within the equity component of the Company’s other comprehensive loss. The ineffective portion of the
changes in the fair value of the Interest Rate Swaps, if any, is recognized in interest expense. Any unrecognized income
(loss) accumulated in other comprehensive loss related to the Interest Rate Swaps is recorded in the Company’s Statement
of Operations, primarily in interest expense, when the underlying transactions hedged are realized.
At December 31, 2008, the fair value of Products Corporation’s 2007 Interest Rate Swap and 2008 Interest Rate Swap
was $(3.8) million and $(1.9) million, respectively, and the accumulated losses recorded in other comprehensive loss were
$3.7 million and $1.7 million, respectively. During 2008, a derivative loss of $2.0 million and a derivative gain of $0.1 million
related to the 2007 Interest Rate Swap and 2008 Interest Rate Swap, respectively, was reclassified from other comprehensive
loss into the Company’s Statement of Operations in interest expense. The amount of the 2008 Interest Rate Swap’s
ineffectiveness in 2008, which was recorded in interest expense, was $(0.2) million.
At December 31, 2007, the fair value of Products Corporation’s 2007 Interest Rate Swap was $(2.2) million and the
accumulated losses recorded in other comprehensive loss were $2.1 million. During 2007, a derivative gain of $0.4 million
related to the 2007 Interest Rate Swap was reclassified from other comprehensive loss into the Company’s Statement of
Operations in interest expense. The amount of the 2008 Interest Rate Swap’s ineffectiveness in 2007, which was recorded in
interest expense, was $(0.2) million.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, “Fair Value Measurements”. This statement clarifies the definition
of fair value of assets and liabilities, establishes a framework for measuring fair value of assets and liabilities and expands
the disclosures on fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007.
However, the FASB deferred the effective date of SFAS No. 157 until the fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008 as
it relates to the fair value measurement requirements for non-financial assets and liabilities that are initially measured at fair
value, but not measured at fair value in subsequent periods. These non-financial assets include goodwill and other
indefinite-lived intangible assets which are included within other assets. In accordance with SFAS No. 157, the Company
has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 157 with respect to financial assets and liabilities effective as of January 1, 2008
and its adoption did not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition. The Company will adopt
SFAS No. 157 for non-financial assets and liabilities effective as of January 1, 2009 and does not expect that its adoption will
have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations and/or financial condition.
F-14
Table of Contents
The fair value framework under SFAS No. 157 requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based
upon the assumptions used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas
Level 3, if applicable, generally would require significant management judgment. The three levels for categorizing assets and
liabilities under SFAS No. 157’s fair value measurement requirements are as follows:
• Level 1: Fair valuing the asset or liability using observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets for
identical assets or liabilities;
• Level 2: Fair valuing the asset or liability using inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the
applicable asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar (as opposed to identical)
assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are
not active; and
• Level 3: Fair valuing the asset or liability using unobservable inputs that reflect the Company’s own assumptions
regarding the applicable asset or liability.
As of December 31, 2008 the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, namely its foreign currency
forward exchange contracts and Interest Rate Swaps, are categorized as presented in the table below:
Total Level 1 Level 2 Level 3

Assets
Total assets at fair value $ 3.0 $ — $ 3.0 $ —
Liabilities
Total liabilities at fair value $ 6.7 $ — $ 6.7 $ —
(a) Based on three-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR index.

(b) Based on observable market transactions of spot and forward rates.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, “Business Combinations”. This statement establishes principles
and requirements for how the acquirer of a business recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed, any non-controlling interest in the acquiree and goodwill acquired, and it provides
guidance for disclosures about business combinations. SFAS No. 141R requires all assets acquired, the liabilities assumed
and any non-controlling interest in the acquiree be recognized at their fair values at the acquisition date. SFAS No. 141R
also requires the acquirer to expense acquisition costs as incurred and to expense restructuring costs in the periods
subsequent to the acquisition date. In addition, SFAS No. 141R also requires the acquirer to recognize changes in valuation
allowances on acquired deferred tax assets in its statement of operations on financial condition. These changes in deferred
tax benefits were previously recognized through a corresponding reduction to goodwill. With the exception of provisions
regarding acquired deferred taxes, which are applicable to all business combinations, SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively
to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2008. The
Company will adopt the provisions of SFAS No. 141R effective as of January 1, 2009 and expects that its adoption will not
have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, “Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities —
An Amendment of FASB Statement No. 133”. This statement is intended to improve financial reporting of derivative
instruments and hedging activities by requiring enhanced disclosures about (a) how and why an entity uses derivative
instruments, (b) how derivative instruments and related hedged items are accounted for under SFAS No. 133 and its related
interpretations and (c) how derivative instruments and related hedged items
F-15
Table of Contents
affect an entity’s financial position, financial performance and cash flows. The provisions of SFAS No. 161 are effective for
fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. See Note 10, “Financial Instruments — Derivative Financial Instruments” for
the Company’s disclosures required under SFAS No. 161. The Company has adopted the provisions of SFAS No. 161 as of
December 31, 2008 and its adoption did not have a material impact on its results of operations or financial condition.
2. DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In July 2008, the Company consummated the disposition of its non-core Bozzano business, a men’s hair care and
shaving line of products, and certain other non-core brands, including Juvena and Aquamarine, which were sold by the
Company only in the Brazilian market (the “Bozzano Sale Transaction”). The transaction was effected through the sale of
the Company’s indirect Brazilian subsidiary, Ceil Comércio E Distribuidora Ltda. (“Ceil”), to Hypermarcas S.A., a Brazilian
publicly-traded, consumer products corporation. The purchase price was approximately $107 million, including
approximately $3 million in cash on Ceil’s balance sheet on the closing date. Net proceeds, after the payment of taxes and
transaction costs, were approximately $95 million.
In September 2008, Products Corporation used $63 million of the net proceeds from the Bozzano Sale Transaction to
repay $63 million in aggregate principal amount of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan, which after
such repayment had $107 million in aggregate principal amount outstanding, and which pursuant to a November 2008
amendment is scheduled to mature on the earlier of (1) the date that Revlon, Inc. issues equity with gross proceeds of at
least $107 million, which proceeds would be used to repay the $107 million remaining aggregate principal balance of the

3. RESTRUCTURING COSTS AND OTHER, NET

During 2008, the Company recorded income of $8.4 million to restructuring costs and other, net, primarily due to a gain
of $7.0 million related to the sale of a facility in Mexico and a net gain of $5.9 million related to the sale of a non-core
trademark. In addition, during 2008 the Company reduced by $0.4 million restructuring costs that were associated with
certain restructurings announced in 2006 (the “2006 Programs”), primarily due to the charges for employee severance and
other employee-related termination costs being slightly lower than originally estimated. These were partially offset by a
charge of $4.9 million for certain restructuring activities in 2008, of which $0.8 million related to a restructuring in Canada,
$1.1 million related to the Company’s decision to close and sell its facility in Mexico, $2.9 million related to the Company’s
realignment of certain functions within customer business development, information management and administrative
services in the U.S. and $0.1 million related other various restructurings (together the “2008 Programs”).
F-17
Table of Contents
During 2007, the Company recorded total restructuring charges of approximately $7.3 million, of which $4.4 million was
associated with the restructurings announced in 2006, primarily for employee severance and other employee-related
termination costs, as to which approximately 300 employees had been terminated in connection with these restructurings. In
addition, approximately $2.9 million was associated with restructuring programs implemented in 2007, primarily for employee
severance and other employee-related termination costs relating principally to the closure of the Company’s facility in
Irvington, New Jersey and other employee-related termination costs relating to personnel reductions in the Company’s
information management function and its sales force in Canada (the “2007 Programs”), as to which approximately
140 employees had been terminated in connection with these restructurings. During 2006, the Company recorded net
charges of $27.4 million, primarily for employee severance and other related personnel benefits.
The 2006 Programs were designed to reduce ongoing costs and improve the Company’s operating profit margins, and
to streamline internal processes to enable the Company to continue to be more effective and efficient in meeting the needs
of its consumers and retail customers. The 2006 Programs consisted largely of a broad organizational streamlining that
involved consolidating responsibilities in certain related functions and reducing layers of management to increase
accountability and effectiveness; streamlining support functions to reflect the new organization structure; eliminating
certain senior executive positions; and consolidating various facilities, as well as the consolidation of certain functions
within the Company’s sales, marketing and creative groups, and certain headquarters functions.

2008 Transactions
Full Repayment of the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes with the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated
Term Loan
In January 2008, Products Corporation entered into the Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement with
MacAndrews & Forbes (the “MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan”) and on February 1, 2008, Products
Corporation used the $170 million proceeds of such loan to repay in full the approximately $167.4 million remaining
aggregate principal amount of Products Corporation’s 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due February 1, 2008 (the
“85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes”), which matured on February 1, 2008, and to pay $2.55 million of related fees and
expenses. In connection with such repayment, Products Corporation also paid from cash on hand approximately $7.2 million
of accrued and unpaid interest due on the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes up to, but not including, the February 1, 2008
maturity date.
partially repay $63.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan.
Following such partial repayment, there remained outstanding $107 million in aggregate principal amount under the
MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan.
Pursuant to a November 2008 amendment, the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan is scheduled to
mature on the earlier of (1) the date that Revlon, Inc. issues equity with gross proceeds of at least $107 million, which
proceeds would be contributed to Products Corporation and used to repay the $107 million remaining aggregate principal
balance of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan, or (2) August 1, 2010.
Under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan, Products Corporation may, at its option, prepay
such loan, in whole or in part, at any time prior to maturity, without premium or penalty. The MacAndrews &
F-21

Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan bears interest at an annual rate of 11%, payable quarterly in cash, and is unsecured
and subordinated to Products Corporation’s senior debt.
2007 Transactions
$100 Million Rights Offering — 2007
In January 2007, Revlon, Inc. successfully completed the $100 Million Rights Offering (as hereinafter defined) of its
Class A Common Stock and used the proceeds primarily to reduce Products Corporation’s indebtedness. See “2004
Investment Agreement — $100 Million Rights Offering”, below.
2006 Transactions
Credit Agreement Refinancing — December 2006
In December 2006, Products Corporation completed a refinancing of its 2004 Credit Agreement (as hereinafter defined)
by entering into the 5-year 2006 Term Loan Facility (as hereinafter defined) in an original aggregate principal amount of
$840 million, and entering into the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, amending and restating its existing $160.0 million multi-
currency revolving credit facility under the 2004 Credit Agreement and extending its maturity through the same 5-year
period, maturing on January 15, 2012.
$110 Million Rights Offering — March 2006
In March 2006, Revlon, Inc. completed the $110 Million Rights Offering (as hereinafter defined) of its Class A Common
Stock and used the proceeds to reduce Products Corporation’s indebtedness. See “2004 Investment Agreement — $110
Million Rights Offering”, below.
(a) Credit Agreements:
Complete Refinancing of the 2004 Credit Agreement in December 2006
In July 2004, Products Corporation entered into a credit agreement (the “2004 Credit Agreement”) with certain of its
subsidiaries as local borrowing subsidiaries, a syndicate of lenders, Citicorp USA, Inc., as multi-currency administrative
agent, term loan administrative agent and collateral agent, UBS Securities LLC as syndication agent and Citigroup Global
Markets Inc., as sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner.
The 2004 Credit Agreement originally provided up to $960.0 million and consisted of a term loan facility of
$800.0 million (the “2004 Term Loan Facility”) and a $160.0 million multi-currency revolving credit facility, the availability
under which varied based upon the borrowing base that was determined based upon the value of eligible accounts
receivable and eligible inventory in the U.S. and the U.K. and eligible real property and equipment in the U.S. from time to
time (the “2004 Multi-Currency Facility”). In March 2005, Products Corporation pre-paid $100.0 million of the 2004 Term
Loan Facility using a portion of the net proceeds of Products Corporation’s 91/2% Senior Notes (as hereinafter defined), and
in July 2006, the 2004 Term Loan Facility was increased back to $800.0 million as a result of the $100.0 million Term Loan
Add-on (as hereinafter defined).
On December 20, 2006, Products Corporation replaced the $800 million 2004 Term Loan Facility under its 2004 Credit
Agreement with a 5-year, $840 million term loan facility (the “2006 Term Loan Facility”) by entering into a term loan
agreement (the “2006 Term Loan Agreement”), dated as of December 20, 2006, among Products Corporation, as borrower,
the lenders party thereto, Citicorp USA, Inc., as administrative agent and collateral agent, Citigroup Global Markets Inc., as
sole lead arranger and sole bookrunner, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as syndication agent. As part of this bank
refinancing, Products Corporation also amended and restated the 2004 Multi-Currency Facility (the “2006 Revolving Credit
Facility” and together with the 2006 Term Loan Facility the “2006 Credit Facilities”) by entering into a $160.0 million asset-
based, multi-currency revolving credit agreement that amended and restated the 2004 Credit Agreement (the “2006
Revolving Credit Agreement” and together with the 2006 Term Loan Agreement, the “2006 Credit Agreements”).
F-22
Table of Contents
Among other things, the 2006 Credit Facilities extended the maturity dates for Products Corporation’s bank credit
facilities from July 9, 2009 to January 15, 2012 in the case of the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility and from July 9, 2010 to
January 15, 2012 in the case of the 2006 Term Loan Facility.
Availability under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility varies based on a borrowing base that is determined by the value
of eligible accounts receivable and eligible inventory in the U.S. and the U.K. and eligible real property and equipment in the
U.S. from time to time.
In each case subject to borrowing base availability, the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility is available to:
(i) Products Corporation in revolving credit loans denominated in U.S. dollars;
(ii) Products Corporation in swing line loans denominated in U.S. dollars up to $30 million;
(iii) Products Corporation in standby and commercial letters of credit denominated in U.S. dollars and other
currencies up to $60 million; and
(iv) Products Corporation and certain of its international subsidiaries designated from time to time in revolving
credit loans and bankers’ acceptances denominated in U.S. dollars and other currencies.
If the value of the eligible assets is not sufficient to support a $160 million borrowing base under the 2006 Revolving
Credit Facility, Products Corporation will not have full access to the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility. Products Corporation’s
ability to make borrowings under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility is also conditioned upon the satisfaction of certain
conditions precedent and Products Corporation’s compliance with other covenants in the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility,
including a fixed charge coverage ratio that applies if and when the “excess borrowing base” (representing the difference
between (1) the borrowing base under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility and (2) the amounts outstanding under such
facility) is less than $20.0 million.
Borrowings under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility (other than loans in foreign currencies) bear interest at a rate
equal to, at Products Corporation’s option, either (i) the Eurodollar Rate plus 2.00% per annum or (ii) the Alternate Base
Rate plus 1.00% per annum. Loans in foreign currencies bear interest in certain limited circumstances, or if mutually
acceptable to Products Corporation and the relevant foreign lenders, at the Local Rate, and otherwise at the Eurocurrency
Rate, in each case plus 2.00%. At December 31, 2008, the effective weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the
2006 Revolving Credit Facility was 6.42%.
Products Corporation pays to the lenders under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility a commitment fee of 0.30% of the
average daily unused portion of the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, which fee is payable quarterly in arrears. Under the 2006
Revolving Credit Facility, Products Corporation pays:
(i) to foreign lenders a fronting fee of 0.25% per annum on the aggregate principal amount of specified Local
Loans (which fee is retained by foreign lenders out of the portion of the Applicable Margin payable to
such foreign lender);
(ii) to foreign lenders an administrative fee of 0.25% per annum on the aggregate principal amount of specified
Local Loans;
(iii) to the multi-currency lenders a letter of credit commission equal to the product of (a) the Applicable
Margin for revolving credit loans that are Eurodollar Rate loans (adjusted for the term that the letter of
credit is outstanding) and (b) the aggregate undrawn face amount of letters of credit; and
(iv) to the issuing lender, a letter of credit fronting fee of 0.25% per annum of the aggregate undrawn face
amount of letters of credit, which fee is a portion of the Applicable Margin.
Under the 2006 Term Loan Facility, Eurodollar Loans bear interest at the Eurodollar Rate plus 4.00% per annum and
Alternate Base Rate loans bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus 3.00% per annum. At December 31, 2008, the
effective weighted average interest rate for borrowings under the 2006 Term Loan Facility was 6.42%.
The original aggregate principal amount under the 2006 Term Loan Facility was $840 million, which was drawn in full on
the December 20, 2006 closing date and used to repay in full the approximately $798 million of
F-23
Table of Contents
outstanding term loans under the 2004 Credit Agreement (plus accrued interest of approximately $15.3 million and a pre-
payment fee of approximately $8.0 million), and the remainder was used to repay approximately $13.3 million of indebtedness
outstanding under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, after paying fees and expenses related to the credit agreement
refinancing.
Prior to the termination date of the 2006 Term Loan Facility, on April 15, July 15, October 15 and January 15 of each
year (which commenced April 15, 2008), Products Corporation is required to repay $2.1 million of the principal amount of the
term loans outstanding under the 2006 Term Loan Facility on each respective date. In addition, the term loans under the
2006 Term Loan Facility are required to be prepaid with:
(i) the net proceeds in excess of $10.0 million for each twelve-month period ending on each July 9 (or
$25.0 million for the twelve-month period ending on July 9, 2007) received during such period from sales of
Term Loan First Lien Collateral (as defined below) by Products Corporation or any of its subsidiary
guarantors (subject to carryover of unused annual basket amounts up to a maximum of $25.0 million and
subject to certain specified dispositions up to an additional $25.0 million in the aggregate);
(ii) the net proceeds from the issuance by Products Corporation or any of its subsidiaries of certain additional
debt; and
(iii) 50% of Products Corporation’s “Excess Cash Flow” (as defined under the 2006 Term Loan Facility), which
prepayments are applied to reduce future regularly scheduled amortization payments.
At December 31, 2008 the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the 2006 Term Loan Facility was $833.7 million
due to the regularly scheduled quarterly amortization payments referred to above.
Under the 2006 Term Loan Facility, certain pre-payments require the payment of fees of 1% if such pre-payment is
made on or prior to December 20, 2009, in each case of the amount prepaid.
Under certain circumstances, Products Corporation will have the right to request the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility to
be increased by up to $50.0 million and the 2006 Term Loan Facility to be increased by up to $200.0 million, provided that the
lenders are not committed to provide any such increase.
The 2006 Credit Facilities are supported by, among other things, guarantees from Revlon, Inc. and, subject to certain
limited exceptions, the domestic subsidiaries of Products Corporation. The obligations of Products Corporation under the
2006 Credit Facilities and the obligations under the guarantees are secured by, subject to certain limited exceptions,
substantially all of the assets of Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors, including:
(i) mortgages on owned real property, including Products Corporation’s facility in Oxford, North Carolina and
property in Irvington, New Jersey;
(ii) the capital stock of Products Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors and 66% of the capital stock of
Products Corporation’s and the subsidiary guarantors’ first-tier foreign subsidiaries;
(iii) intellectual property and other intangible property of Products Corporation and the subsidiary
guarantors; and
(iv) inventory, accounts receivable, equipment, investment property and deposit accounts of Products
Corporation and the subsidiary guarantors.
The liens on, among other things, inventory, accounts receivable, deposit accounts, investment property (other than
the capital stock of Products Corporation and its subsidiaries), real property, equipment, fixtures and certain intangible
property related thereto secure the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility on a first priority basis and the 2006 Term Loan Facility on
a second priority basis. The liens on the capital stock of Products Corporation and its subsidiaries and intellectual property
and certain other intangible property (the “Term Loan First Lien Collateral”) secure the 2006 Term Loan Facility on a first
priority basis and the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility on a second priority basis. Such arrangements are set forth in the
Amended and Restated Intercreditor and Collateral Agency Agreement, dated as of December 20, 2006, by and among
Products Corporation and the lenders (the “2006
F-24
Table of Contents
Intercreditor Agreement”). The 2006 Intercreditor Agreement also provides that the liens referred to above may be shared
from time to time, subject to certain limitations, with specified types of other obligations incurred or guaranteed by Products
Corporation, such as foreign exchange and interest rate hedging obligations (including the Interest Rate Swaps that
Products Corporation entered into in September 2007 and April 2008 in connection with indebtedness outstanding under
the 2006 Term Loan Facility) and foreign working capital lines.
Each of the 2006 Credit Facilities contains various restrictive covenants prohibiting Products Corporation and its
subsidiaries from:
(i) incurring additional indebtedness or guarantees, with certain exceptions;
(ii) making dividend and other payments or loans to Revlon, Inc. or other affiliates, with certain exceptions,
including among others,
(a) exceptions permitting Products Corporation to pay dividends or make other payments to Revlon, Inc.
to enable it to, among other things, pay expenses incidental to being a public holding company,
including, among other things, professional fees such as legal, accounting and insurance fees,
regulatory fees, such as SEC filing fees and NYSE listing fees, and other expenses related to being a
public holding company,
(b) subject to certain circumstances, to finance the purchase by Revlon, Inc. of its Class A Common
Stock in connection with the delivery of such Class A Common Stock to grantees under the Stock
Plan and/or the payment of withholding taxes in connection with the vesting of restricted stock
awards under such plan, and
(c) subject to certain limitations, to pay dividends or make other payments to finance the purchase,
redemption or other retirement for value by Revlon, Inc. of stock or other equity interests or
equivalents in Revlon, Inc. held by any current or former director, employee or consultant in his or her
capacity as such;
(iii) creating liens or other encumbrances on Products Corporation’s or its subsidiaries’ assets or revenues,
granting negative pledges or selling or transferring any of Products Corporation’s or its subsidiaries’
assets, all subject to certain limited exceptions;
(iv) with certain exceptions, engaging in merger or acquisition transactions;
(v) prepaying indebtedness and modifying the terms of certain indebtedness and specified material
contractual obligations, subject to certain exceptions;
(vi) making investments, subject to certain exceptions; and
(vii) entering into transactions with affiliates of Products Corporation other than upon terms no less favorable
to Products Corporation or its subsidiaries than it would obtain in an arms’ length transaction.
In addition to the foregoing, the 2006 Term Loan Facility contains a financial covenant limiting Products Corporation’s
senior secured leverage ratio (the ratio of Products Corporation’s Senior Secured Debt (excluding debt outstanding under
the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility) to EBITDA, as each such term is defined in the 2006 Term Loan Facility) to 5.0 to 1.0 for
each period of four consecutive fiscal quarters ending during the period from December 31, 2008 to the January 2012
maturity date of the 2006 Term Loan Facility.
Under certain circumstances if and when the difference between (i) the borrowing base under the 2006 Revolving
Credit Facility and (ii) the amounts outstanding under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility is less than $20.0 million for a
period of 30 consecutive days or more, the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility requires Products Corporation to maintain a
consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio (the ratio of EBITDA minus Capital Expenditures to Cash Interest Expense for such
period, as each such term is defined in the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility) of 1.0 to 1.0.
F-25
Table of Contents
The events of default under each 2006 Credit Facility include customary events of default for such types of
agreements, including:
(i) nonpayment of any principal, interest or other fees when due, subject in the case of interest and fees to a
grace period;
(ii) non-compliance with the covenants in such 2006 Credit Facility or the ancillary security documents,

If Products Corporation is in default under the senior secured leverage ratio under the 2006 Term Loan Facility or the
consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio under the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, Products Corporation may cure such
default by issuing certain equity securities to, or receiving capital contributions from, Revlon, Inc. and applying the cash
therefrom which is deemed to increase EBITDA for the purpose of calculating the applicable ratio. This cure right may be
exercised by Products Corporation two times in any four quarter period.
Products Corporation was in compliance with all applicable covenants under the 2006 Credit Agreements as of
December 31, 2008. At December 31, 2008, the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the 2006 Term Loan Facility
was $833.7 million due to regularly scheduled quarterly amortization payments. At December 31, 2008, availability under the
$160.0 million 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, based upon the calculated borrowing base less approximately $13.1 million of
outstanding letters of credit and nil then drawn on the 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, was approximately $126.8 million.
Other Transactions under the 2004 Credit Agreement Prior to Its Complete Refinancing in December 2006
In March 2005, the 2004 Term Loan Facility was reduced to $700.0 million following Products Corporation’s March 2005
pre-payment of $100.0 million with a portion of the proceeds from its issuance of the 91/2% Senior Notes and in July 2006,
the Term Loan Facility was increased back to $800.0 million as a result of the $100.0 million Term Loan Add-on.
In February 2006, Products Corporation secured an amendment to the 2004 Credit Agreement (the “first amendment”),
which excluded from various financial covenants certain charges in connection with the 2006 Programs described in Note 3
above, as well as some start-up costs incurred by the Company in 2005 related to the Vital Radiance brand before its
discontinuance in September 2006 and the complete re-stage of the Almay brand. Specifically, the first amendment provided
for the add-back to the 2004 Credit Agreement’s definition of “EBITDA” the lesser of (i) $50 million; or (ii) the cumulative
one-time charges associated with (a) certain aspects of the 2006 Programs described in Note 3 and (b) the non-recurring
costs in the third and fourth quarters of 2005 associated with the Vital Radiance brand before its discontinuance in
September 2006 and the complete re-stage of the Almay brand. Under the 2004 Credit Agreement, “EBITDA” was used in
the determination of Products Corporation’s senior secured leverage ratio and the consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio.
In July 2006, Products Corporation secured a further amendment (the “second amendment”) to its 2004 Credit
Agreement to, among other things, add an additional $100.0 million to the 2004 Credit Agreement’s 2004 Term Loan Facility
(the “Term Loan Add-on”). The second amendment also reset the 2004 Credit Agreement’s senior secured leverage ratio
covenant to 5.5 to 1.0 through June 30, 2007 (which was subsequently extended to September 30, 2008 in connection with
the December 2006 refinancing of the 2006 Credit Agreements), stepping down to 5.0 to 1.0 for the remainder of the term of
the 2004 Credit Agreement. The second amendment also enabled Products Corporation to add back to the 2004 Credit
Agreement’s definition of “EBITDA” up to $25 million related to restructuring charges (in addition to the restructuring
charges permitted to be added back pursuant to the first amendment to the 2004 Credit Agreement) and charges for certain
product returns and/or product discontinuances. The proceeds from the $100.0 million Term Loan Add-on were used to
repay in July 2006 $78.6 million of outstanding indebtedness under the 2004 Multi-Currency Facility under the 2004 Credit
Agreement, without any permanent reduction in the commitment under that facility, and the balance of $11.7 million, after
the payment of fees and expenses incurred in connection with consummating such transaction, was used for general
corporate purposes.
In September 2006, Products Corporation secured an additional amendment (the “third amendment”) to its 2004 Credit
Agreement, which enabled Products Corporation to add back to the 2004 Credit Agreement’s definition of “EBITDA” up to
$75 million of restructuring charges (in addition to the restructuring charges permitted to be added back pursuant to the first
and second amendments to the 2004 Credit Agreement), asset impairment charges, inventory write-offs, inventory returns
costs and in each case related charges in connection with the September 2006

discontinuance of the Vital Radiance brand, the Company’s CEO change in September 2006 and certain other aspects of the
2006 Programs described in Note 3.
(b) 91/2% Senior Notes due 2011:
Products Corporation issued $310.0 million aggregate principal amount of 91/2% Senior Notes due 2011 (the “Original
91/2% Senior Notes”) pursuant to an indenture, dated as of March 16, 2005, by and between Products Corporation and
U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee. This issuance and the related transactions extended the maturities of Products
Corporation’s debt that would have otherwise been due in 2006.
The proceeds from the Original 91/2% Senior Notes were used in March 2005 to prepay $100.0 million of indebtedness
outstanding under the 2004 Term Loan Facility of Products Corporation’s 2004 Credit Agreement, together with accrued
interest and the associated $5.0 million pre-payment fee and to pay $7.0 million in certain fees and expenses associated with
the issuance of the Original 91/2% Senior Notes.
The remaining $197.9 million of proceeds from the Original 91/2% Senior Notes was placed in a debt defeasance trust
and, in April 2005, used to redeem all of the $116.2 million aggregate principal amount of Products Corporation’s then
outstanding 81/8% Senior Notes, plus $1.9 million of accrued interest, and all of the $75.5 million aggregate principal amount
of Products Corporation’s then outstanding 9% Senior Notes, plus $3.1 million of accrued interest and the applicable
premium of $1.1 million. The aggregate redemption amounts for the 81/8% Senior Notes and 9% Senior Notes were
$118.1 million and $79.8 million, respectively, which constituted the principal amount and interest payable on the
81/8% Senior Notes and the 9% Senior Notes up to, but not including, the redemption date, and, with respect to the
9% Senior Notes, the applicable premium. In connection with the redemption, the Company recognized a loss on
extinguishment of debt of $1.5 million.
In June 2005, all of the Original 91/2% Senior Notes were exchanged for new 91/2% Senior Notes (the “March 2005
91/2% Senior Notes”), which have substantially identical terms to the Original 91/2% Senior Notes, except that the March
2005 91/2% Senior Notes are registered with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”),
and the transfer restrictions and registration rights applicable to the Original 91/2% Senior Notes do not apply to the March
2005 91/2% Senior Notes.
In August 2005, Products Corporation issued an additional $80.0 million aggregate principal amount of the
91/2% Senior Notes due 2011, which priced at 951/4% of par (the “Additional 91/2% Senior Notes”), in a private placement to
institutional buyers, as additional notes pursuant to the same indenture governing the Original 91/2% Senior Notes. The
issuance of the Additional 91/2% Senior Notes constituted a further issuance of, are the same series as, and will vote on any
matters submitted to note holders with, the Original 91/2% Senior Notes. The Company used the proceeds of this issuance
to help fund investments in certain brand initiatives and for general corporate purposes, as well as to pay fees and expenses
in connection with the issuance of the Additional 91/2% Senior Notes and any outstanding fees and expenses in connection
with the issuance of and exchange offer for the Original 91/2% Senior Notes.
In December 2005, all of the Additional 91/2% Senior Notes issued by Products Corporation in August 2005 were
exchanged for new 91/2% Senior Notes (the “August 2005 91/2% Senior Notes”), which have substantially identical terms to
the Additional 91/2% Senior Notes, except that the August 2005 91/2% Senior Notes are registered with the SEC under the
Securities Act, and the transfer restrictions and registration rights applicable to the Additional 91/2% Senior Notes do not
apply to the August 2005 91/2% Senior Notes (which are collectively referred to with the March 2005 91/2% Senior Notes as
the “91/2% Senior Notes”).
The 91/2% Senior Notes are senior unsecured obligations of Products Corporation ranking equally in right of payment
with any of Products Corporation’s present and future senior indebtedness, including the indebtedness under the 2006
Credit Agreements, and are senior to the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan and, prior to their full
repayment on February 1, 2008, the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes. The 91/2% Senior Notes are also senior to all of
Products Corporation’s future subordinated indebtedness. The 91/2% Senior Notes are effectively subordinated to the
outstanding indebtedness and other liabilities of Products Corporation’s subsidiaries. The 91/2% Senior Notes bear interest
at an annual rate of 91/2%, which is payable on April 1 and October 1 of each year.
F-28
Table of Contents
The 91/2% Senior Notes indenture provides that Products Corporation may redeem the 91/2% Senior Notes at its
option, in whole or in part, at any time on or after April 1, 2008, at the redemption prices set forth in the 91/2% Senior Notes
indenture.
Pursuant to the 91/2% Senior Notes indenture, upon a Change of Control (as defined in such indenture), each holder of
the 91/2% Senior Notes has the right to require Products Corporation to make an offer to repurchase all or a portion of such
holder’s 91/2% Senior Notes at a price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount of such holder’s 91/2% Senior
Notes, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, thereon to the date of repurchase.
The 91/2% Senior Notes indenture contains covenants which, subject to certain exceptions, limit the ability of Products
Corporation and its subsidiaries to, among other things, incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends on or redeem or
repurchase stock, engage in certain asset sales, make certain types of investments and other restricted payments, engage in
transactions with affiliates, restrict dividends or payments from subsidiaries and create liens on their assets. All of these
limitations and prohibitions, however, are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions.
The 91/2% Senior Notes indenture contains customary events of default for debt instruments of such type and
includes a cross acceleration provision which provides that it shall be an event of default if any debt (as defined in such
indenture) of Products Corporation or any of its significant subsidiaries (as defined in such indenture) is not paid within
any applicable grace period after final maturity or is accelerated by the holders of such debt because of a default and the
total principal amount of the portion of such debt that is unpaid or accelerated exceeds $25.0 million and such default
continues for 10 days after notice from the trustee under such indenture. If any such event of default occurs, the trustee
under such indenture or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes under such
indenture may declare all such notes to be due and payable immediately, provided that the holders of a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes under such indenture may, by notice to the trustee, waive any such
default or event of default and its consequences under such indenture.
(c) The 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes (the “85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes”):
Prior to their full repayment in February 2008 using the proceeds of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated
Term Loan, the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes were unsecured obligations of Products Corporation and (i) subordinate
in right of payment to all existing and future senior debt of Products Corporation, including the 91/2% Senior Notes and the
indebtedness under the 2006 Credit Agreements, (ii) ranked equally in right of payment with all future senior subordinated
debt, if any, of Products Corporation and (iii) senior in right of payment to all future junior subordinated debt, if any, of
Products Corporation. The 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes were effectively subordinated to the outstanding
indebtedness and other liabilities of Products Corporation’s subsidiaries. (See “MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan Agreement” and “2004 Investment Agreement — $110 Million Rights Offering” and “— $100
Million Rights Offering” ).
(d) MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement

Subordinated Notes up to, but not including, the February 1, 2008 maturity date.
partially repay $63.0 million of the outstanding aggregate principal amount of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
amount under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan.
The MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan bears interest at an annual rate of 11%, which is payable
in arrears in cash on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. Pursuant to a November 2008
amendment, the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan is scheduled to mature on
F-29

the earlier of (1) the date that Revlon, Inc. issues equity with gross proceeds of at least $107 million, which proceeds would
be contributed to Products Corporation and used to repay the $107 million remaining aggregate principal balance of the
MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan, or (2) August 1, 2010, in consideration for the payment of an
extension fee of 1.5% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the loan. The MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan continues to provide that Products Corporation may, at its option, prepay such loan, in whole or in
part (together with accrued and unpaid interest), at any time prior to maturity without premium or penalty.
The MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan is an unsecured obligation of Products Corporation and,
pursuant to subordination provisions that are generally incorporated from the indenture which governed the 85/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes prior to their repayment, is subordinated in right of payment to all existing and future senior debt of
Products Corporation, currently including indebtedness under (i) Products Corporation’s 2006 Credit Agreements, and
(ii) Products Corporation’s 91/2% Senior Notes. The MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan has the right
to payment equal in right of payment with any present and future senior subordinated indebtedness of Products
Corporation.
The MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement contains covenants (other than the
subordination provisions discussed above) that are generally incorporated from the indenture governing Products
Corporation’s 91/2% Senior Notes, including covenants that limit the ability of Products Corporation and its subsidiaries to,
among other things, incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends on or redeem or repurchase stock, engage in certain asset
sales, make certain types of investments and other restricted payments, engage in certain transactions with affiliates, restrict
dividends or payments from subsidiaries and create liens on their assets. All of these limitations and prohibitions, however,
are subject to a number of important qualifications and exceptions.
The MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement includes a cross acceleration provision which
is substantially the same as that in Products Corporation’s 91/2% Senior Notes that provides that it shall be an event of
default under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement if any debt (as defined in such
agreement) of Products Corporation or any of its significant subsidiaries (as defined in such agreement) is not paid within
any applicable grace period after final maturity or is accelerated by the holders of such debt because of a default and the
total principal amount of the portion of such debt that is unpaid or accelerated exceeds $25.0 million and such default
continues for 10 days after notice from MacAndrews & Forbes. If any such event of default occurs, MacAndrews & Forbes
may declare the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan to be due and payable immediately.
The MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement also contains other customary events of
default for loan agreements of such type, including, subject to applicable grace periods, nonpayment of any principal or
interest when due under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement, non-compliance with any
of the material covenants in the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement, any representation or
warranty being incorrect, false or misleading in any material respect, or the occurrence of certain bankruptcy, insolvency or
similar proceedings by or against Products Corporation or any of its significant subsidiaries.
Upon any change of control (as defined in the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement),
Products Corporation is required to repay the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan in full, after fulfilling
an offer to repay Products Corporation’s 91/2% Senior Notes and to the extent permitted by Products Corporation’s 2006
Credit Agreements.
In connection with the closing of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan, Revlon, Inc. and
MacAndrews & Forbes entered into a letter agreement in January 2008 pursuant to which Revlon, Inc. agreed that if Revlon,
Inc. conducts any equity offering before the full payment of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan,
and if MacAndrews & Forbes and/or its affiliates elects to participate in any such offering, MacAndrews & Forbes and/or
its affiliates may pay for any shares it acquires in such offering either in cash or by tendering debt valued at its face amount
under the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement, including any accrued but unpaid interest,
on a dollar for dollar basis or in any combination of cash and such debt. Revlon, Inc. is under no obligation to conduct an
equity offering and MacAndrews & Forbes and its affiliates are under no obligation to subscribe for shares should Revlon,
Inc. elect to conduct an equity offering.

(e) 2004 Consolidated MacAndrews & Forbes Line of Credit:
In July 2004, Products Corporation and MacAndrews & Forbes Inc. entered into a line of credit, with an initial
commitment of $152.0 million, which was reduced to $87.0 million in July 2005 and reduced from $87.0 million to $50.0 million
in January 2007 upon Revlon, Inc.’s consummation of the $100 Million Rights Offering (as amended, the “2004 Consolidated

Rights Offering, which was completed in January 2007, $50.0 million of the line of credit remained available to Products
Corporation through January 31, 2008 on substantially the same terms (which line of credit would otherwise have terminated
pursuant to its terms upon the consummation of the $100 Million Rights Offering). The 2004 Consolidated MacAndrews &
Forbes Line of Credit expired in accordance with its terms on January 31, 2008. It was undrawn during its entire term.

2004 Investment Agreement
In February 2004, Revlon, Inc.’s Board of Directors approved agreements with Fidelity Management & Research
Company (“Fidelity”) and MacAndrews & Forbes intended to strengthen the Company’s balance sheet, as
F-31
Table of Contents
well as an Investment Agreement (as amended, the “2004 Investment Agreement”) with MacAndrews & Forbes covering a
series of transactions designed to reduce Products Corporation’s levels of indebtedness. In March 2004, Revlon, Inc.
exchanged approximately $804 million of Products Corporation’s debt, $54.6 million of Revlon, Inc. preferred stock and
$9.9 million of accrued interest for 29,996,949 shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Revlon Exchange Transactions”) (as
adjusted for Revlon, Inc.’s September 2008 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split). As a result of the Revlon Exchange Transactions,
Revlon, Inc. reduced Products Corporation’s debt by approximately $804 million on March 25, 2004.
In connection with the closing of the Revlon Exchange Transactions on March 25, 2004, MacAndrews & Forbes
Holdings executed a joinder agreement to the Revlon, Inc. registration rights agreement pursuant to which all Class A
Common Stock acquired by MacAndrews & Forbes pursuant to the 2004 Investment Agreement are deemed to be
registrable securities. Also, in connection with the Revlon Exchange Transactions, in February 2004, Revlon, Inc. and
Fidelity entered into a stockholders agreement (the “Stockholders Agreement”) pursuant to which, among other things,
(i) Revlon, Inc. agreed to continue to maintain a majority of independent directors (as defined by New York Stock Exchange
listing standards) on its Board of Directors, as it currently does; (ii) Revlon, Inc. established and maintains a Nominating
and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors; and (iii) Revlon, Inc. agreed to certain restrictions with
respect to Revlon, Inc.’s conducting any business or entering into any transactions or series of related transactions with
any of its affiliates, any holders of 10% or more of the outstanding voting stock or any affiliates of such holders (in each
case, other than its subsidiaries). The Stockholders Agreement will terminate when Fidelity ceases to be the beneficial
holder of at least 5% of Revlon, Inc.’s outstanding voting stock.
Pursuant to the 2004 Investment Agreement, in addition to the Revlon Exchange Transactions, Revlon, Inc. committed
to conduct further rights and equity offerings (such equity offerings, together with the Revlon Exchange Transactions, are
referred to as the “Debt Reduction Transactions”). Under the 2004 Investment Agreement, MacAndrews & Forbes agreed
to take, or cause to be taken, all commercially reasonable actions to facilitate the Debt Reduction Transactions, including
back-stopping certain rights offerings.
In August 2005, Revlon, Inc. announced its plan to issue $185.0 million of equity. In connection with such plans,
MacAndrews & Forbes and Revlon, Inc. amended the 2004 Investment Agreement in August 2005 to increase
MacAndrews & Forbes’ commitment to purchase such equity as was necessary to ensure that Revlon, Inc. issued
$185.0 million in equity. In March 2006 Revlon, Inc. successfully completed a $110 million rights offering of its Class A
Common Stock and a related private placement to MacAndrews & Forbes (together, the “$110 Million Rights Offering”).
Having completed the $110 Million Rights Offering, to facilitate Revlon, Inc.’s plans to issue the full $185 million of equity,
during 2006 Revlon, Inc. and MacAndrews & Forbes entered into various amendments to the 2004 Investment Agreement
to extend the time for completing the remaining $75 million of such issuance from March 31, 2006 until March 31, 2007, in
each case by extending MacAndrews & Forbes’ $75 million back-stop to such later date.
In January 2007, Revlon, Inc. successfully completed a $100 million rights offering of its Class A Common Stock and a
related private placement to MacAndrews & Forbes (together, the “$100 Million Rights Offering”). In each case proceeds
were used by the Company to reduce indebtedness, as described below, and, as each rights offering was fully subscribed,
in each case MacAndrews & Forbes was not required to purchase any additional shares beyond its pro rata subscription in
connection with its back-stop obligations under the 2004 Investment Agreement.
$110 Million Rights Offering
In March 2006, Revlon, Inc. successfully completed the $110 Million Rights Offering which allowed each stockholder
of record of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A and Class B Common Stock as of the close of business on February 13, 2006, the record
date set by Revlon, Inc.’s Board of Directors, to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock. The subscription
price for each share of Class A Common Stock purchased in the $110 Million Rights Offering, including shares purchased in
the private placement by MacAndrews & Forbes, was $28.00 per share (as adjusted for Revlon, Inc.’s September 2008 1-for-
10 Reverse Stock Split).

share amounts are adjusted for Revlon, Inc.’s September 2008 1-for-10 reverse stock split). The shares issued to
MacAndrews & Forbes represented the number of shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock that MacAndrews &
Forbes would otherwise have been entitled to purchase pursuant to its basic subscription privilege in the $110 Million
Rights Offering (which was approximately 60% of the shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock offered in the $110
Million Rights Offering).
$100 Million Rights Offering
In January 2007, Revlon, Inc. successfully completed the $100 Million Rights Offering, which allowed each stockholder
of record of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A and Class B Common Stock as of the close of business on December 11, 2006, the record
date set by Revlon, Inc.’s Board of Directors, to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock. The subscription
price for each share of Class A Common Stock purchased in the $100 Million Rights Offering, including shares purchased in
the private placement by MacAndrews & Forbes, was $10.50 per share (as adjusted for Revlon, Inc.’s September 2008 1-for-
10 Reverse Stock Split).
Corporation, which it used in February 2007 to redeem $50.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 85/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes (prior to their full repayment in February 2008), at an aggregate redemption price of $50.3 million,
including $0.3 million of accrued and unpaid interest up to, but not including, the redemption date. In January 2007,
Products Corporation used the remainder of such proceeds to repay approximately $43.3 million of indebtedness
outstanding under Products Corporation’s 2006 Revolving Credit Facility, without any permanent reduction in that
commitment, after paying approximately $2.0 million of fees and expenses incurred in connection with such offering, with
approximately $5 million of the remaining net proceeds being available for general corporate purposes. Following such
partial redemption of the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes, there remained outstanding $167.4 million in aggregate principal
amount of such notes, which Products Corporation repaid in full on the February 1, 2008 maturity date of the 85/8% Senior
Subordinated Notes, using the proceeds of the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan (See “2008
Transactions — Full Repayment of the 85/8% Senior Subordinated Notes with the MacAndrews & Forbes Senior
Subordinated Term Loan”).
In completing the $100 Million Rights Offering, in January 2007, Revlon, Inc. issued an additional 9,523,809 shares of its
Class A Common Stock, including 3,784,747 shares subscribed for by public shareholders (other than MacAndrews &
Forbes) and 5,739,062 shares issued to MacAndrews & Forbes in a private placement directly from Revlon, Inc. pursuant to
a Stock Purchase Agreement between Revlon, Inc. and MacAndrews & Forbes, dated as of December 18, 2006 (in each case
such share amounts are adjusted for Revlon, Inc.’s September 2008 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split). The shares issued to
MacAndrews & Forbes represented the number of shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock that MacAndrews &
Forbes would otherwise have been entitled to purchase pursuant to its basic subscription privilege in the $100 Million
Rights Offering (which was approximately 60% of the shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock offered in the $100
Million Rights Offering).
Liquidity Considerations
The Company expects that operating revenues, cash on hand and funds available for borrowing under the 2006
Revolving Credit Facility and other permitted lines of credit will be sufficient to enable the Company to cover its
F-33
Table of Contents
operating expenses for 2009, including cash requirements in connection with the payment of operating expenses, including
expenses in connection with the execution of the Company’s business strategy, purchases of permanent wall displays,
capital expenditure requirements, payments in connection with the Company’s restructuring programs, severance not
otherwise included in the Company’s restructuring programs, debt service payments and costs and regularly scheduled
pension and post-retirement plan contributions and benefit payments.
There can be no assurance that available funds will be sufficient to meet the Company’s cash requirements on a
consolidated basis. If the Company’s anticipated level of revenues are not achieved because of, for example, decreased
consumer spending in response to weak economic conditions or weakness in the cosmetics category in the mass retail
channel; adverse changes in currency; decreased sales of the Company’s products as a result of increased competitive
activities by the Company’s competitors; changes in consumer purchasing habits, including with respect to shopping
channels; retailer inventory management; retailer space reconfigurations or reductions in retailer display space; less than
anticipated results from the Company’s existing or new products or from its advertising and/or marketing plans; or if the
Company’s expenses, including, without limitation, for advertising and promotions or for returns related to any reduction of
retail space, product discontinuances or otherwise, exceed the anticipated level of expenses, the Company’s current sources
of funds may be insufficient to meet the Company’s cash requirements.
In the event of a decrease in demand for the Company’s products, reduced sales, lack of increases in demand and
sales, changes in consumer purchasing habits, including with respect to shopping channels, retailer inventory management,
retailer space reconfigurations or reductions in retailer display space, product discontinuances and/or advertising and
promotion expenses or returns expenses exceeding its expectations or less than anticipated results from the Company’s
existing or new products or from its advertising and/or marketing plans, any such development, if significant, could reduce
Products Corporation’s revenues and could adversely affect it’s ability to comply with certain financial covenants under the
2006 Credit Agreements and in such event the Company could be required to take measures, including, among other things,
reducing discretionary spending.
If the Company is unable to satisfy its cash requirements from the sources identified above or comply with its debt
covenants, the Company could be required to adopt one or more of the following alternatives:
• delaying, reducing or revising the Company’s restructuring programs;
There can be no assurance that the Company would be able to take any of the actions referred to above because of a
variety of commercial or market factors or constraints in Products Corporation’s debt instruments, including, without
limitation, market conditions being unfavorable for an equity or debt issuance, additional capital contributions and/or loans
not being available from affiliates and/or third parties, or that the transactions may not be permitted under the terms of
Products Corporation’s various debt instruments then in effect, such as due to restrictions on the incurrence of debt,
incurrence of liens, asset dispositions and related party transactions. In addition, such actions, if taken, may not enable the
Company to satisfy its cash requirements or enable Products Corporation to comply with its debt covenants if the actions
do not generate a sufficient amount of additional capital.
F-34
Table of Contents
The terms of the 2006 Credit Agreements, the indenture governing the 91/2% Senior Notes and the MacAndrews &
Forbes Senior Subordinated Term Loan Agreement generally restrict Products Corporation from paying dividends or making
distributions, except that Products Corporation is permitted to pay dividends and make distributions to Revlon, Inc. to
enable Revlon, Inc., among other things, to pay expenses incidental to being a public holding company, including, among
other things, professional fees, such as legal, accounting and insurance fees, regulatory fees, such as SEC filing fees, NYSE
listing fees and other expenses related to being a public holding company and, subject to certain limitations, to pay
dividends or make distributions in certain circumstances to finance the purchase by Revlon, Inc. of its Class A Common
Stock in connection with the delivery of such Class A Common Stock to grantees under the Stock Plan.
10. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The fair value of the Company’s debt, including the current portion of long-term debt, is based on the quoted market
prices for the same issues or on the current rates offered to the Company for debt of the same remaining maturities. The
estimated fair value of such debt at December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, was approximately $360.1 million and
$26.4 million less than the carrying values of $1,329.1 million and $1,438.9 million, respectively.
Products Corporation also maintains standby and trade letters of credit with certain banks for various corporate
purposes under which Products Corporation is obligated, of which approximately $13.1 million and $14.6 million (including
amounts available under credit agreements in effect at that time) were maintained at December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. Included in these amounts is approximately $9.3 million and $9.9 million, at December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively, in standby letters of credit, which support Products Corporation’s self-insurance programs. The estimated
liability under such programs is accrued by Products Corporation.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, trade receivables, notes receivable,
accounts payable and short-term borrowings approximate their fair values.
Derivative Financial Instruments
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, primarily (1) foreign currency forward exchange contracts, for the
purpose of managing foreign currency exchange risk by reducing the effects of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange
rates and (2) interest rate swap transactions, including, without limitation, the Interest Rate Swaps entered into in September
2007 and April 2008, for the purpose of managing interest rate risk by offseting the effects of floating interest rates
associated with the Products Corporation’s indebtedness. The foreign currency forward exchange contracts are entered
into primarily for the purpose of hedging anticipated inventory purchases and certain intercompany payments denominated
in foreign currencies and generally have maturities of less than one year. In September 2007 and April 2008, Products
Corporation executed two floating-to-fixed interest rate swap transactions (the “2007 Interest Rate Swap” and the “2008
Interest Rate Swap” and together the “Interest Rate Swaps”) each with a notional amount of $150.0 million over a period of
two years relating to indebtedness

The tax effects of temporary differences that give rise to significant portions of the deferred tax assets and deferred tax
liabilities at December 31, 2008 and 2007 are presented below:
De ce m be r 31,
2008 2007
Deferred tax assets:
Accounts receivable, principally due to doubtful accounts $ 0.9 $ 0.8
Inventories 7.7 10.0
Net operating loss carryforwards — U.S 201.4 274.2
Net operating loss carryforwards — foreign 77.0 112.2
Accruals and related reserves 1.1 1.8
Employee benefits 49.2 53.3
State and local taxes 4.9 6.6
Advertising, sales discount, returns and coupon redemptions 34.5 38.3

Total gross deferred tax assets 405.6 521.0
Less valuation allowance (383.6) (493.3)
Total deferred tax assets, net of valuation allowance 22.0 27.7
Deferred tax liabilities:
Plant, equipment and other assets (15.7) (15.5)
Other (0.1) (3.6)
Total gross deferred tax liabilities (15.8) (19.1)
Net deferred tax assets $ 6.2 $ 8.6
The valuation allowance decreased by $109.7 million during 2008 and decreased by $62.5 million during 2007. Foreign-
exchange fluctuations and expirations and other eliminations of operating loss carryforwards were the primary drivers of the
decrease in the valuation allowance during 2008. Expirations and other eliminations of operating loss carryforwards were the
primary drivers of the decrease in the valuation allowance during 2007.
In assessing the recoverability of its deferred tax assets, management considers whether some portion or all of the
deferred tax assets will not be realized based on the recognition threshold and measurement of a tax position in accordance
with FIN 48. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during
the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of
deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. Based upon
the level of historical taxable income for certain international markets and projections for future taxable income over the
periods in which the deferred tax assets are recoverable, management believes that it is more likely than not that the
Company will realize the benefits of the net deferred tax assets existing at December 31, 2008 based on the recognition
threshold and measurement of a tax position in accordance with FIN 48.
After December 31, 2008, the Company has tax loss carryforwards of approximately $782.3 million, of which
$261.9 million are foreign and $520.4 million are domestic (including $115.6 million of consolidated federal net operating
losses (“CNOLs”) available from the MacAndrews & Forbes Group, as discussed in the paragraph below). The losses
expire in future years as follows: 2009-$78.1 million; 2010-$13.4 million; 2011-$2.4 million; 2012-$9.5 million; 2013 and beyond-
$503.4 million; and unlimited-$175.5 million. The Company could receive the benefit of such tax loss carryforwards only to
the extent it has taxable income during the carryforward periods in the applicable tax jurisdictions.
As a result of the Company’s adoption of FIN 48 effective as of January 1, 2007, the Company reduced its total tax
reserves by approximately $23.2 million, which resulted in a corresponding reduction of accumulated deficit. As of the date
of adoption and after the impact of recognizing the decrease in tax reserves noted above, the Company
F-39
Table of Contents
had tax reserves of $57.7 million, all of which, to the extent reduced and unutilized in future periods, would affect the
Company’s effective tax rate. The Company remains subject to examination of its income tax returns in various jurisdictions
including, without limitation, the U.S. (federal), for tax years ended December 31, 2005 through December 31, 2008, and
Australia and South Africa, for tax years ended December 31, 2004 through December 31, 2008. The Company classifies
interest and penalties recognized under FIN 48 as a component of the provision for income taxes in the consolidated
statement of operations. After the implementation of FIN 48 effective as of January 1, 2007, the Company had $22.8 million
of accrued interest and $1.1 million of accrued tax penalties included in tax reserves. During the years ended December 31,
2008 and 2007, the Company recognized through the consolidated statement of operations a reduction of $3.2 million and
$2.3 million in accrued interest and penalties, respectively.
At December 31, 2008 and 2007, the Company had tax reserves of $50.9 million and $53.9 million, respectively, including
$18.5 million and $21.7 million of accrued interest, respectively, included in tax reserves. A reconciliation of the beginning
and ending amount of the tax reserves is as follows:
Balance at January 1, 2007 $ 57.7

Increase based on tax positions taken in a prior year 5.3
Decrease based on tax positions taken in a prior year —
Increase based on tax positions taken in the current year 5.5
Decrease related to settlements with taxing authorities and
changes in law (7.4)
Decrease resulting from the lapse of statutes of limitations (7.2)
Balance at December 31, 2007 $ 53.9
Increase based on tax positions taken in a prior year 5.6
Decrease based on tax positions taken in a prior year (10.1)
Increase based on tax positions taken in the current year 7.4
Decrease related to settlements with taxing authorities and changes in law —
Decrease resulting from the lapse of statutes of limitations (5.9)
Balance at December 31, 2008 $ 50.9
In addition, the Company believes that it is reasonably possible that its tax reserves during 2009 will increase by
approximately $2.9 million as a result of changes in various tax positions, each of which is individually insignificant.
As a result of the closing of the Revlon Exchange Transactions, as of March 25, 2004, Revlon, Inc., Products
Corporation and their U.S. subsidiaries were no longer included in the affiliated group of which MacAndrews & Forbes was
the common parent (the “MacAndrews & Forbes Group”) for federal income tax purposes (see further discussion
immediately below). The Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (as amended, the “Code”) and the Treasury regulations issued
thereunder govern both the calculation of the amount and allocation to the members of the MacAndrews & Forbes Group
of any CNOLs of the group that will be available to offset Revlon, Inc.’s taxable income and the taxable income of its
U.S. subsidiaries, including Products Corporation, for the taxable years beginning after March 25, 2004. Only the amount of
any CNOLs that the MacAndrews & Forbes Group did not absorb in tax years ended on or before December 31, 2004 will be
available to be allocated to Revlon, Inc. and its U.S. subsidiaries, including Products Corporation, for their taxable years
beginning on March 26, 2004. After March 25, 2004, the Company had available from the MacAndrews & Forbes Group,
$415.9 million in U.S. federal net operating losses and $15.2 million of alternative minimum tax losses. As a result of the
expiration of $24.8 million in U.S. federal net operating losses at the end of 2006, $101.5 million at the end of 2007 and
$139.8 million at the end of 2008, and the Company’s use of U.S. federal net operating losses of $34.3 million during 2008,
after December 31, 2008, Revlon, Inc. and its U.S. subsidiaries, including Products Corporation, has available from the
MacAndrews & Forbes Group $115.6 million of CNOLs. During 2008, the Company also used $15.2 million of alternative
minimum tax losses from the MacAndrews & Forbes Group and, as a result, after December 31, 2008, the Company has no
alternative minimum tax losses available from the MacAndrews & Forbes
F-40
Table of Contents
Group. The amounts set forth in this paragraph are subject to change if the Internal Revenue Service adjusts the results of
the MacAndrews & Forbes Group for tax years ended on or before December 31, 2004.
The Company has not provided for U.S. Federal and foreign withholding taxes on $48.4 million of foreign subsidiaries’
undistributed earnings as of December 31, 2008, because such earnings are intended to be indefinitely reinvested overseas.
The amount of unrecognized deferred tax liabilities for temporary differences related to investments in undistributed
earnings is not practicable to determine at this time.
In June 1992, Revlon Holdings (as hereinafter defined), Revlon, Inc., Products Corporation and certain of its
subsidiaries, and MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings entered into a tax sharing agreement (as subsequently amended and
restated, the “MacAndrews & Forbes Tax Sharing Agreement”), pursuant to which MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings
agreed to indemnify Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation against federal, state or local income tax liabilities of the
MacAndrews & Forbes Group (other than in respect of Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation) for taxable periods
beginning on or after January 1, 1992 during which Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation or a subsidiary of Products
Corporation was a member of such group. In these taxable periods, Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation were included in
the MacAndrews & Forbes Group, and Revlon, Inc.’s and Products Corporation’s federal taxable income and loss were
included in such group’s consolidated tax return filed by MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings. Revlon, Inc. and Products
Corporation were also included in certain state and local tax returns of MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings or its subsidiaries.
Pursuant to the MacAndrews & Forbes Tax Sharing Agreement, for all such taxable periods, Products Corporation was
required to pay to Revlon, Inc., which in turn was required to pay to Revlon Holdings, amounts equal to the taxes that
Products Corporation would otherwise have had to pay if it were to file separate federal, state or local income tax returns
(including any amounts determined to be due as a result of a redetermination arising from an audit or otherwise of the
consolidated or combined tax liability relating to any such period which was attributable to Products Corporation), except
that Products Corporation was not entitled to carry back any losses to taxable periods ending prior to January 1, 1992. The
MacAndrews & Forbes Tax Sharing Agreement remains in effect solely for taxable periods beginning on or after January 1,
1992, through and including March 25, 2004.
Following the closing of the Revlon Exchange Transactions in March 2004, Revlon, Inc. became the parent of a new
consolidated group for federal income tax purposes and Products Corporation’s federal taxable income and loss will be
included in such group’s consolidated tax returns. Accordingly, Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation entered into a tax
sharing agreement (the “Revlon Tax Sharing Agreement”) pursuant to which Products Corporation will be required to pay
to Revlon, Inc. amounts equal to the taxes that Products Corporation would otherwise have had to pay if Products
Corporation were to file separate federal, state or local income tax returns, limited to the amount, and payable only at such
times, as Revlon, Inc. will be required to make payments to the applicable taxing authorities.
There were no federal tax payments or payments in lieu of taxes from Revlon, Inc. to Revlon Holdings pursuant to the
MacAndrews & Forbes Tax Sharing Agreement in 2008 with respect to periods covered by the MacAndrews & Forbes Tax
Sharing Agreement. There will be a federal tax payment of $0.6 million from Products Corporation to Revlon, Inc. pursuant to
the Revlon Tax Sharing Agreement in respect of 2008. The Company does not expect that there will be federal tax payments
or payments in lieu of taxes from Revlon, Inc. to Revlon Holdings pursuant to the MacAndrews & Forbes Tax Sharing
Agreement with respect to periods covered by the MacAndrews & Forbes Tax Sharing Agreement or from Products
Corporation to Revlon, Inc. pursuant to the Revlon Tax Sharing Agreement in respect of 2009.
Pursuant to the asset transfer agreement referred to in Note 15, Products Corporation assumed all tax liabilities of
Revlon Holdings other than (i) certain income tax liabilities arising prior to January 1, 1992 to the extent such liabilities
exceeded reserves on Revlon Holdings’ books as of January 1, 1992 or were not of the nature reserved for and (ii) other tax
liabilities to the extent such liabilities are related to the business and assets retained by Revlon Holdings.

12. SAVINGS PLAN, PENSION AND POST-RETIREMENT BENEFITS

Savings Plan:
The Company offers a qualified defined contribution plan for its U.S.-based employees, the Revlon Employees’
Savings, Investment and Profit Sharing Plan (as amended, the “Savings Plan”), which allows eligible participants to
contribute up to 25%, and highly compensated employees to contribute up to 6%, of qualified compensation through
payroll deductions, subject to certain annual dollar limitations imposed by the Code. The Company matches employee
contributions at fifty cents for each dollar contributed up to the first 6% of eligible compensation (i.e., for a total match of
3% of employee contributions). In 2008, 2007 and 2006, the Company made cash matching contributions to the Savings Plan
of approximately $2.7 million, $2.6 million and $2.8 million, respectively.
Pension Benefits:
The Company sponsors a number of qualified defined benefit pension plans covering a substantial portion of the
Company’s employees in the U.S. The Company also has nonqualified pension plans which provide benefits for certain
U.S. and non-U.S. employees, and for U.S. employees in excess of IRS limitations in the U.S. and in certain limited cases
contractual benefits for designated officers of the Company. These nonqualified plans are funded from the general assets of
the Company.
Other Post-retirement Benefits:

The Company previously sponsored an unfunded retiree benefit plan, which provides death benefits payable to
beneficiaries of a very limited number of former employees. Participation in this plan was limited to participants enrolled as
of December 31, 1993. The Company also administers an unfunded medical insurance plan on behalf of Revlon Holdings,
certain costs of which have been apportioned to Revlon Holdings under the transfer agreements among Revlon, Inc.,
Products Corporation and MacAndrews & Forbes. (See Note 15, “Related Party Transactions — Transfer Agreements”).
Adoption of SFAS No. 158:

Effective as of January 1, 2007, the Company early adopted the measurement date provisions of SFAS No. 158. These
provisions of SFAS No. 158 require the Company to measure defined benefit plan assets and obligations as of the date of
the Company’s fiscal year-end, which the Company has applied as of the beginning of the fiscal year ending December 31,
2007, rather than using a September 30th measurement date. Due to the Company’s early adoption of the measurement date
provisions under SFAS No. 158, the Company recognized a net reduction to the beginning balance of Accumulated Other
Comprehensive Loss of $10.3 million, which is comprised of (1) a $9.4 million reduction to Accumulated Other
Comprehensive Loss due to the revaluation of the pension liability and (2) a $0.9 million reduction to Accumulated Other
Comprehensive Loss of amortization of prior service costs and actuarial gains/losses over the period from October 1, 2006
to December 31, 2006. In addition, the Company recognized a $2.9 million increase to the beginning balance of Accumulated
Deficit for the total net periodic benefit costs incurred from October 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006.

Company’s U.S. and International pension plans during the respective year:

Rate of future compensation increases 4.00 4.00 4.00 4.30 3.90 3.70
(a) As a result of the Company’s early adoption of the measurement date provisions of SFAS No. 158, and applying a December 31st
measurement date rather than a September 30th measurement as of the beginning of the fiscal year ending December 31, 2007, the
discount rate used to determine the net periodic benefit cost for the Company’s U.S. plans during 2006 was 5.50% and 5.75% for the nine
months and final three months of 2006, respectively.
The 6.35% weighted-average discount rate used to determine the Company’s projected benefit obligation of the
Company’s U.S. plans at the end of 2008 was derived by reference to appropriate benchmark yields on high quality
corporate bonds, with terms which approximate the duration of the benefit payments and the relevant benchmark bond
indices considering the individual plan’s characteristics, such as the Citigroup Pension Discount Curve, to select a rate at
which the Company believes the U.S. pension benefits could have been effectively settled. The discount rates used to
determine the Company’s projected benefit obligation of the Company’s primary international plans at the end of 2008 were
derived from similar local studies, in conjunction with local actuarial consultants and asset managers.
During the first quarter of each year, the Company selects an expected long-term rate of return on its pension plan
assets. The Company considers a number of factors to determine its expected long-term rate of return on plan assets
assumption, including, without limitation, recent and historical performance of plan assets, asset allocation and other third-
party studies and surveys. The Company considered the plan portfolios’ asset allocations over a variety of time periods
and compared them with third-party studies and reviewed the performance of the capital markets in recent years and other
factors and advice from various third parties, such as the pension plans’ advisors, investment managers and actuaries.
While the Company considered both the recent performance and the historical performance of plan assets, the Company’s
assumptions are based primarily on its estimates of long-term, prospective rates of return. Using the aforementioned
methodologies, in early 2008 and before the significant declines in the financial markets in late 2008, the Company selected
the 8.25% long-term rate of return on plan assets assumption used for the U.S pension plans during 2008. Differences
between actual and expected asset returns are recognized in the net periodic benefit cost over the remaining service period
of the active participating employees.

The rate of future compensation increases is an assumption used by the actuarial consultants for pension accounting
and is determined based on the Company’s current expectation for such increases.
The following table presents U.S. and international pension plan assets information at December 31, 2008, 2007 and
2006, respectively:
U.S. Plans International Plans

Fair value of plan assets $309.4 $424.4 $380.3 $32.9 $49.3 $43.7
The Investment Committee for the Company’s pension plans (the “Investment Committee”) has adopted (and revises
from time to time) an investment policy for the U.S. pension plans with the objective of meeting or exceeding, over time, the
expected long-term rate of return on plan assets assumption, weighed against a reasonable risk level. In connection with
this objective, the Investment Committee retains professional investment managers that invest plan assets in the following
asset classes: equity and fixed income securities, real estate, and cash and other investments, which may include hedge
funds and private equity and global balanced strategies. The International plans follow a similar methodology in
conjunction with local actuarial consultants and asset managers.
The U.S. and international pension plans currently have the following target ranges for these asset classes, which
target ranges are intended to be flexible guidelines for allocating the plans’ assets amongst various classes of assets, and
are reviewed periodically and considered for readjustment when an asset class weighting is outside of its target range
(recognizing that these are flexible target ranges that may vary from time to time) with the objective of achieving the
expected long-term rate of return on plan assets assumption, weighed against a reasonable risk level, as follows:

The U.S. and international pension plans weighted-average actual asset allocations at December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively, by asset categories were as follows:

Within the equity securities asset class, the investment policy provides for investments in a broad range of publicly-
traded securities ranging from domestic and international stocks and small to large capitalization stocks. Within the fixed
income securities asset class, the investment policy provides for investments in a broad range of publicly-traded debt
securities ranging from domestic and international Treasury issues, corporate debt securities, mortgages and asset-backed
issues. Within the real estate asset class, the investment policy provides for investment in a diversified commingled pool of
real estate properties across the U.S. In the cash and other investments asset class, investments may be in cash and cash
equivalents and other investments, which may include hedge funds and
F-46
Table of Contents
private equity not covered in the classes listed above, provided that such investments are approved by the Investment
Committee prior to their selection. Within the global balanced strategies, the investment policy provides for investments in
a broad range of publicly traded stocks and bonds in both domestic and international markets as described in the asset
classes listed above. In addition, the global balanced strategies can include commodities, provided that such investments
are approved by the Investment Committee prior to their selection.
The Investment Committee’s investment policy does not allow the use of derivatives for speculative purposes, but
such policy does allow its investment managers to use derivatives for the purpose of reducing risk exposures or to replicate
exposures of a particular asset class.
Contributions:
The Company’s policy is to fund at least the minimum contributions required to meet applicable federal employee
benefit and local laws, or to directly pay benefit payments where appropriate. During 2008, the Company contributed
$11.8 million to its pension plans and $1.0 million to its other post-retirement benefit plans. During 2009, the Company
expects to contribute approximately $26 million to its pension plans and approximately $1 million to its other post-retirement
benefit plans.

13. STOCK COMPENSATION PLAN

The following note gives effect to Revlon, Inc.’s September 2008 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split.
Revlon, Inc. maintains the Third Amended and Restated Revlon, Inc. Stock Plan (the “Stock Plan”), which provides for
awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted or unrestricted stock and restricted stock units to eligible
employees and directors of Revlon, Inc. and its affiliates, including Products Corporation.
Stock options:
Non-qualified stock options granted under the Stock Plan are granted at prices that equal or exceed the fair market
value of Class A Common Stock on the grant date and have a term of 7 years (option grants under the Stock Plan prior to
June 4, 2004 have a term of 10 years). Option grants generally vest over service periods that range from one to four years.
Additionally, employee stock option grants outstanding in November 2006 vest upon a “change in control”.
Total net stock option compensation expense includes amounts attributable to the granting of, and the remaining
requisite service period of, stock options issued under the Stock Plan, which awards were unvested at January 1, 2006 or
granted on or after such date. Net stock option compensation expense for the year ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006
was $0.3 million, $1.5 million and $7.1 million (including with respect to 2006 $1.4 million related to the departure of Mr. Jack
Stahl, the Company’s former President and Chief Executive Officer, in September 2006). As of December 31, 2008, the total
unrecognized stock option compensation expense related to unvested stock options in the aggregate was $0.2 million. The
unrecognized stock option compensation expense is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 0.2 years
as of December 31, 2008. The total fair value of stock options that vested during the year ended December 31, 2008 was
$1.0 million.

There were no stock options granted during 2008 and 2007. The weighted average grant date fair value of stock
options granted during 2006 was $1.11 per option, which was estimated using the Black-Scholes option valuation model
with the following weighted-average assumptions:
2008 2007 2006
Expected life of option(a) N/A N/A 4.75 years
Risk-free interest rate(b) N/A% N/A% 4.76%
Expected volatility(c) N/A% N/A% 65%
Expected dividend yield(d) N/A N/A N/A
(a) T he expected life of an option is calculated using a formula based on the vesting term and contractual life of the option.
(b) T he risk-free interest rate is based upon the rate in effect at the time of the option grant on a zero coupon U.S. T reasury bill for periods
approximating the expected life of the option.
(c) Expected volatility is based on the daily historical volatility of the closing price of Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock as reported on
the NYSE consolidated tape over the expected life of the option.
(d) Assumes no dividends on Revlon, Inc.’s Class A Common Stock for stock options granted during the years ended December 31, 2008,
2007 and 2006, respectively.

February 2002 and all of these shares were fully vested at December 31, 2007.
The Company recognizes non-cash compensation expense related to restricted stock awards and restricted stock units
under the Stock Plan and Supplemental Stock Plan using the straight-line method over the remaining service period. The
Company recorded compensation expense related to restricted stock awards under the Stock Plan and Supplemental Stock
Plan of $6.5 million, $5.2 million and $6.0 million during 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. The deferred stock-based
compensation related to restricted stock awards is $13.0 million and $14.1 million at December 31, 2008 and 2007,
respectively. The deferred stock-based compensation related to restricted stock awards is expected to be recognized over a
weighted-average period of 2.3 years. The total fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock units that vested during
the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007 was $5.5 million and $9.3 million, respectively. At December 31, 2008, there
were 1,643,739 shares of unvested restricted stock and restricted stock units under the Stock Plan and nil under the
Supplemental Stock Plan.

(a) Due to the adoption of SFAS No. 158 in December 2006, the minimum pension liability, as set forth in the table above, is no longer
recognized as a component of comprehensive loss. T he $24.6 million net adjustment represents the difference between (1) $115.8 million
of actuarial gains and $2.7 million of prior service costs calculated under SFAS No. 158, both of which have not yet been recognized as a
component of net periodic pension cost, (2) the net $0.5 million reclassification of actuarial gains and prior service costs calculated under
SFAS No. 158, which are attributable to Revlon Holdings under the 1992 transfer agreements referred to in Note 15, “ Related P arty
F-50
Table of Contents
T ransactions”, and (3) the $88.0 million reversal of the minimum pension liability, which under SFAS No. 158 is no longer required as a
component of comprehensive loss to be recognized during 2006 as a component of comprehensive loss. (See Note 12, “ Savings P lan,
P ension and Other Post-retirement Benefits”).
(b) Due to the Company’s early adoption of the provisions under SFAS No. 158, effective as of January 1, 2007 requiring a measurement date
for determining defined benefit plan assets and obligations using the Company’s fiscal year end of December 31st, rather than using a
September 30th measurement date, the Company recognized a net reduction to the beginning balance of Accumulated Other
Comprehensive Loss of $10.3 million, as set forth in the table above, which is comprised of (1) a $9.4 million reduction to Accumulated
Other Comprehensive Loss due to the revaluation of the pension liability as a result of the change in the measurement date and (2) a
$0.9 million reduction to Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss of amortization of prior service costs, actuarial gains/losses and return
on assets over the period from October 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006. In addition, the Company recognized a $2.9 million increase to
the beginning balance of Accumulated Deficit, as set forth in the table above, which represents the total net periodic benefit costs incurred
from October 1, 2006 to December 31, 2006. (See Note 12, “ Savings P lan, Pension, and Post-retirement Benefits”).
(c) Due to the Company’s use of derivative financial instruments, the net amount of hedge accounting derivative losses recognized by the
Company, as set forth in the table above, pertains to (1) the reversal of $0.4 million of net losses accumulated in Accumulated Other
Comprehensive Loss at January 1, 2007 upon the Company’s election during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2007 to discontinue the
application of hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133, “ Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities” for certain
derivative financial instruments, as the Company no longer designates its foreign currency forward exchange contracts as hedging
instruments and (2) the reversal of a $0.4 million gain pertaining a net receipt settlement in December 2007 under the terms of P roducts
Corporation’s 2007 Interest Rate Swap. T he Company has designated the 2007 Interest Rate Swap as a hedging instrument and
accordingly applies hedge accounting under SFAS No. 133. (See Note 10, “ Financial Instruments” to the Consolidated Financial
Statements and the discussion of Critical Accounting P olicies in this Form 10-K).
(d) Amount represents a reduction in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss as a result of the amortization of unrecognized prior service
costs and actuarial gains/losses arising during 2007 related to the Company’s pension and other post-retirement plans.
(e) Amount represents the reversal of amounts recorded in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) pertaining to net settlement

As of December 31, 2008, MacAndrews & Forbes beneficially owned shares of Revlon, Inc.’s Common Stock having
approximately 75% of the combined voting power of such outstanding shares. Revlon, Inc. in turn directly owns all 5,260
outstanding shares of Products Coporation’s common stock. As a result, MacAndrews & Forbes is able to elect the entire
Board of Directors of Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation and control the vote on all matters submitted to a vote of
Revlon, Inc.’s and Products Corporation’s stockholders. MacAndrews & Forbes is wholly-owned by Ronald O. Perelman,
Chairman of Revlon, Inc.’s and Products Corporation’s Board of Directors.
Transfer Agreements
In June 1992, Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation entered into an asset transfer agreement with Revlon Holdings
LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and formerly a Delaware corporation known as Revlon Holdings Inc. (“Revlon
Holdings”), and which is an affiliate and an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of MacAndrews & Forbes and certain of
Revlon Holdings’ wholly-owned subsidiaries. Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation also entered into a real property asset
transfer agreement with Revlon Holdings. Pursuant to such agreements, on June 24, 1992 Revlon Holdings transferred
assets to Products Corporation and Products Corporation assumed all of the liabilities of Revlon Holdings, other than
certain specifically excluded assets and liabilities (the liabilities excluded are referred to as the “Excluded Liabilities”).
Certain consumer products lines sold in demonstrator-assisted distribution channels considered not integral to Revlon,
Inc.’s business and that historically had not been profitable and certain other assets and liabilities were retained by Revlon
Holdings. Revlon Holdings agreed to indemnify Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation against losses arising from the
Excluded Liabilities, and Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation agreed to indemnify Revlon Holdings against losses arising
from the liabilities assumed by Products Corporation. The amounts reimbursed by Revlon Holdings to Products Corporation
for the Excluded Liabilities for 2008, 2007 and 2006 were $0.3 million, $0.1 million and $0.3 million, respectively.
Reimbursement Agreements
Revlon, Inc., Products Corporation and MacAndrews & Forbes Inc. (a wholly-owned subsidiary of MacAndrews &
Forbes Holdings) have entered into reimbursement agreements (the “Reimbursement Agreements”) pursuant to which
(i) MacAndrews & Forbes Inc. is obligated to provide (directly or through affiliates) certain professional and administrative
services, including employees, to Revlon, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including
F-51
Table of Contents
Products Corporation, and purchase services from third party providers, such as insurance, legal and accounting services
and air transportation services, on behalf of Revlon, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Products Corporation, to the extent
requested by Products Corporation, and (ii) Products Corporation is obligated to provide certain professional and
administrative services, including employees, to MacAndrews & Forbes and purchase services from third party providers,
such as insurance, legal and accounting services, on behalf of MacAndrews & Forbes to the extent requested by
MacAndrews & Forbes, provided that in each case the performance of such services does not cause an unreasonable
burden to MacAndrews & Forbes or Products Corporation, as the case may be.
Products Corporation reimburses MacAndrews & Forbes for the allocable costs of the services purchased for or
provided to Products Corporation and its subsidiaries and for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection
with the provision of such services. MacAndrews & Forbes reimburses Products Corporation for the allocable costs of the
services purchased for or provided to MacAndrews & Forbes and for the reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
connection with the purchase or provision of such services. Each of Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation, on the one
hand, and MacAndrews & Forbes Inc., on the other, has agreed to indemnify the other party for losses arising out of the
provision of services by it under the Reimbursement Agreements, other than losses resulting from its willful misconduct or
gross negligence.
The Reimbursement Agreements may be terminated by either party on 90 days’ notice. Products Corporation does not
intend to request services under the Reimbursement Agreements unless their costs would be at least as favorable to
Products Corporation as could be obtained from unaffiliated third parties.
Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation participate in MacAndrews & Forbes’ directors and officers liability insurance
program, which covers Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation, as well as MacAndrews & Forbes. The limits of coverage are
available on an aggregate basis for losses to any or all of the participating companies and their respective directors and
officers. Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation reimburse MacAndrews & Forbes from time to time for their allocable
portion of the premiums for such coverage or they pay the insurers directly, which premiums the Company believes are
more favorable than the premiums the Company would pay were it to secure stand-alone coverage. Any amounts paid by
Revlon, Inc. and Products Corporation directly to MacAndrews & Forbes in respect of premiums are included in the
amounts paid under the Reimbursement Agreements. The net amounts (payable to) reimbursable from MacAndrews &
Forbes to Products Corporation for the services provided under the Reimbursement Agreements for 2008, 2007 and 2006
were $(1.4) million, $0.6 million, and $0.5 million, respectively, primarily for 2008, in respect of reimbursements for insurance
premiums.
Tax Sharing Agreements

As a result of the closing of the Revlon Exchange Transactions, as of March 25, 2004, Revlon, Inc., Products
Corporation and their U.S. subsidiaries were no longer included in the MacAndrews & Forbes Group for federal income tax
purposes. See Note 11, “Income Taxes”, for further discussion on these agreements and related transactions in 2008, 2007
and 2006.

Pursuant to a lease dated April 2, 1993 (the “Edison Lease”), Revlon Holdings leased to Products Corporation the
Edison, N.J. research and development facility for a term of up to 10 years with an annual rent of $1.4 million and certain
shared operating expenses payable by Products Corporation which, together with the annual rent, were not to exceed
$2.0 million per year. In August 1998, Revlon Holdings sold the Edison facility to an unrelated third party, which assumed
substantially all liability for environmental claims and compliance costs relating to the Edison facility, and in connection
with the sale Products Corporation terminated the Edison Lease and entered into a new lease with the new owner. Revlon
Holdings agreed to indemnify Products Corporation through September 1, 2013 (the term of the new lease) to the extent that
rent under the new lease exceeds the rent that would have been payable under the terminated Edison Lease had it not been
terminated. The net amounts reimbursed by Revlon Holdings to Products Corporation with respect to the Edison facility for
2008, 2007 and 2006 were $0.4 million, $0.3 million and $0.3 million, respectively.
Certain of Products Corporation’s debt obligations, including the 2006 Credit Agreements, have been, and may in the
future be, supported by, among other things, guaranties from Revlon, Inc. and, subject to certain limited exceptions, all of
the domestic subsidiaries of Products Corporation. The obligations under such guaranties are and were secured by, among
other things, the capital stock of Products Corporation and, subject to certain limited exceptions, the capital stock of all of
Products Corporation’s domestic subsidiaries and 66% of the capital stock of Products Corporation’s and its domestic
subsidiaries’ first-tier foreign subsidiaries.
Pursuant to his employment agreement, Mr. Jack Stahl, the Company’s former President and Chief Executive Officer,
received two loans (prior to the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002) from Products Corporation, one, in March 2002,
to satisfy state, local and federal income taxes (including withholding taxes) incurred by him as a result of his having made
an election under Section 83(b) of the Code in connection with the 100,000 shares of restricted stock (as adjusted for
Revlon, Inc.’s September 2008 1-for-10 Reverse Stock Split) that were granted to him in connection with his joining the
Company, and a second in May 2002 to cover the purchase of a principal residence in the New York metropolitan area, as he
was relocating from Atlanta, Georgia. As a result of the termination of his employment in September 2006, the outstanding
principal amount and all accrued interest on such loans was forgiven in accordance with the terms of his employment
agreement, being approximately $2.2 million (which included accrued interest) and $1.9 million, respectively.
During 2008, 2007 and 2006, Products Corporation paid $0.4 million, $0.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively, to a
nationally-recognized security services company, in which MacAndrews & Forbes had a controlling interest, for security
officer services. Products Corporation’s decision to engage such firm was based upon its expertise in the field of security
services, and the rates were competitive with industry rates for similarly situated security firms. Effective in August 2008,
MacAndrews & Forbes disposed of its interest in such security services company and accordingly from and after such date
is no longer a related party.
Fidelity Management Trust Company, a wholly-owned subsidiary of FMR LLC (which, as of the December 31, 2008,
beneficially owned more than 5% of the Company’s Class A Common Stock), acts as trustee of the 401(k) Plan. During 2007
and 2006, the Company paid Fidelity Management Trust Company approximately $0.1 million and $0.1 million to administer
the $100 Million Rights Offering and the $110 Million Rights Offering with respect to 401(k) Plan participants and to
administer the Company’s 401(k) Plan. The fees for such services were based on standard rates charged by Fidelity
Management Trust Company for similar services and are not material to the Company or FMR LLC.
16. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Products Corporation currently leases manufacturing, executive, research and development, and sales facilities and
various types of equipment under operating and capital lease agreements. Rental expense was $15.3 million, $18.2 million
and $19.5 million for the years ended December 31, 2008, 2007 and 2006, respectively. Minimum rental commitments under all
noncancelable leases, including those pertaining to idled facilities, with remaining lease terms in excess of one year from
December 31, 2008 aggregated $83.3 million. Such commitments for each of the five years and thereafter subsequent to
December 31, 2008 are $17.6 million, $14.7 million, $13.3 million, $11.9 million, $10.4 million and $15.4 million, respectively.

The Company is involved in various routine legal proceedings incident to the ordinary course of its business. The
Company believes that the outcome of all pending legal proceedings in the aggregate is unlikely to have a material adverse
effect on the Company’s business, results of operations and/or its consolidated financial condition.

18. GEOGRAPHIC, FINANCIAL AND OTHER INFORMATION

The Company manages its business on the basis of one reportable operating segment. See Note 1, “Summary of
Significant Accounting Policies”, for a brief description of the Company’s business. As of December 31, 2008, the Company
had operations established in 14 countries outside of the U.S. and its products are sold throughout the world. Generally, net
sales by geographic area are presented by attributing revenues from external customers on the basis of where the products
are sold. During 2008, 2007 and 2006, Wal-Mart and its affiliates worldwide accounted for approximately 23%, 24% and 23%,
respectively, of the Company’s net sales. The Company expects that Wal-Mart and a small number of other customers will,
in the aggregate, continue to account for a large portion of the Company’s net sales. As is customary in the consumer
products industry, none of the Company’s customers is under an obligation to continue purchasing products from the
Company in the future.
In the tables below, certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period’s presentation.
