Procter & Gamble Announces Preliminary Results of Exchange Offer

CINCINNATI–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The Procter & Gamble Company (NYSE:PG) announced today the preliminary
results of its exchange offer for shares of P&G common stock in
connection with the previously announced transaction to separate its
global fine fragrances, salon professional, cosmetics and retail hair
color businesses, along with select hair styling brands (collectively
referred to as “P&G Specialty Beauty Brands”).

In the transaction, P&G transferred the assets and liabilities of P&G
Specialty Beauty Brands, other than specified excluded brands, to
Galleria Co., a wholly owned subsidiary of P&G created to facilitate the
transaction, and Galleria Co. will merge with a subsidiary of Coty Inc.
(NYSE:COTY) and become a wholly owned subsidiary of Coty. Upon
completion of the merger, each share of Galleria Co. common stock will
be converted into the right to receive one share of Coty class A common
stock.

The exchange offer expired at 12:00 midnight, Eastern Daylight (New York
City) Time, on September 29, 2016. P&G shareholders who tendered their
shares of P&G common stock in the exchange offer will receive
approximately 3.9033 shares of Coty class A common stock (subject to
receipt of cash in lieu of fractional shares) for each share of P&G
common stock accepted for exchange.

Exchange Offer Preliminary Results

Pursuant to the exchange offer and based on a preliminary count by the
exchange agent, approximately 691,105,648 shares of P&G common stock
were tendered prior to the expiration of the exchange offer, including
383,204,614 shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures.
The total number of shares tendered includes an estimated 1,488,679
shares of P&G common stock tendered by odd-lot shareholders not subject
to proration. P&G intends to accept 104,969,205 of the tendered shares
in exchange for the 409,726,299 shares of Galleria Co. common stock
owned by P&G and offered for exchange.

Based on the total number of shares of P&G common stock reported to be
tendered and not properly withdrawn prior to the expiration of the
exchange offer, the exchange offer was oversubscribed by approximately
586,136,443 shares, including shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed
delivery procedures, resulting in a preliminary proration factor of
approximately 15.01 percent.

P&G will not be able to determine the final proration factor until the
end of the exchange offer’s guaranteed delivery period at 5:00 p.m., New
York City time, on October 4, 2016. P&G will publicly announce the final
proration factor, which may be different from today’s preliminary
estimate, once it has been determined.

Because more than 104,969,205 shares of P&G common stock were tendered,
all shares of Galleria Co. common stock owned by P&G are expected to be
distributed to P&G shareholders who tendered their shares of P&G common
stock in the exchange offer, and no shares of Galleria Co. common stock
are expected to be distributed to P&G shareholders as a pro rata
dividend.
