Each share of Movado Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share.

(a)(b)  The information set forth in Rows 7 through 13 of the cover page hereto for each Reporting Person is incorporated herein by reference for each such Reporting Person. The percentage amounts set forth in Row 13 for all cover pages filed herewith are calculated based upon the 16,554,358 shares of Movado Common Stock and 6,644,105 shares of Movado Class A Common Stock outstanding as of August 20, 2015, as reported by the Issuer in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended July 31, 2015 and filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 27, 2015.
Item 5 is hereby amended solely with respect to Mr. E. Grinberg in its entirety as follows:
Mr. E. Grinberg:
Of the shares reported as beneficially owned by Mr. E. Grinberg (representing 25.6% of the outstanding shares of Movado Common Stock): 158,000 are shares of Movado Common Stock which Mr. E. Grinberg has the right to acquire by the exercise of options under the Issuer’s Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan; 6,425 are shares of Movado Common Stock held by a remainder trust for the benefit of Mr. E. Grinberg (“Remainder Trust), for which trust Mr. E. Grinberg is co-trustee together with Sharon Trulock with whom he shares voting and dispositive power; and 5,000 are shares of Movado Common Stock held by the Efraim Grinberg Family Foundation for which Mr. E. Grinberg is one of two directors with shared voting and dispositive power. The balance of Mr. E. Grinberg’s shares is comprised of shares of Movado Class A Common Stock. Included in Mr. E.

862,940 shares held by several trusts for the benefit of Mr. E. Grinberg’s siblings and himself; 855 shares held by a trust for the benefit of Mr. E.

Grinberg has shared voting and dispositive power, together with Ms. Trulock, with respect to the Movado Class A Common Stock held in such trusts. The number of shares of Movado Class A Common Stock reported for Mr. E. Grinberg also includes 38,000 shares held by CAP I Partners L.P., which Mr. E.
