Jide Zeitlin

Dear Jide,

It is with great pleasure that I confirm our offer to appoint you as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Tapestry, Inc. (“Tapestry” or the “Company”), reporting to the Board of Directors of Tapestry (the “Board”). Upon effectiveness of the appointment, you will be a member of Tapestry’s Executive Committee. You will be considered an “officer” under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as well as an “Executive Officer” of Tapestry pursuant to Rule 3b-7 of the Exchange Act.

This letter details your base salary, bonus opportunity, equity opportunity and other benefits. It also lays out the conditions of your employment with Tapestry. If you accept our offer, your appointment will be effective as of September 4, 2019 (the “Effective Date”). Effective as of the Effective Date, you will resign as the Chairman of the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board and as a member of the Human Resources Committee of the Board (the “HR Committee”). While you are serving as Tapestry’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, you will not receive additional compensation for your service as a member of the Board.

1.	Base Salary

$1,300,000 per annum.

Your salary will be paid in accordance with the Company’s payroll practices, currently bi-weekly, which are subject to change from time-to-time at the discretion of the Company, and will be paid less withholding and deductions authorized under applicable law.

Performance reviews are typically conducted at the end of our fiscal year, which presently runs from approximately July 1 through June 30. Any merit increases for which you may be eligible would be determined at that time, and would take effect in September. You will first be eligible for a merit increase in September 2020.

2.	Incentive Compensation

You will be eligible to participate in the Company’s Performance-Based Annual Incentive Plan ("AIP"), a cash incentive program under which your payout is based on Tapestry’s financial performance, subject to its terms and conditions. Your target bonus will be 150% of your salary actually paid during the fiscal year. The actual bonus payout may range from 0% of target for performance below established thresholds to 200% of target for maximum performance, with performance components, measures and target values to be established by the Company’s Board or the HR Committee. You will first be eligible for the AIP beginning in fiscal year 2020, prorated for the period from the Effective Date to the end of the Company’s 2020 fiscal year, and generally payable in August 2020.

Any AIP bonus is paid within three months of the end of the fiscal year and you must be an employee in good standing with the Company on the AIP bonus payment date in order to be eligible to receive any such AIP bonus payment, except as expressly provided in this paragraph. Subject to your continued employment as an employee for one year following the Effective Date, if you provide the required notice of your intent to resign your employment due to your Retirement or are terminated without “cause,” you will be eligible to receive a pro-rated AIP bonus for the portion of the fiscal year you were employed prior to the date of your Retirement or termination without “cause” and based on actual achievement of the applicable performance criteria, paid when the Company pays AIP bonuses for such fiscal year. If you continue to serve as a member of the Board after your employment as Tapestry’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer terminates, you will be eligible to receive a pro-rated AIP bonus for the fiscal year in which you cease to serve as Tapestry’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer for the period of such fiscal year you were employed as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in such fiscal year, based on actual achievement of the applicable performance criteria and paid when the Company pays AIP bonuses for such fiscal year.

For the purposes of this letter, termination for “cause” is defined in the Addendum. Please refer to the My Pay section of Tapestry’s intranet, the Loop, for the governing terms and conditions of the AIP bonus plan. In addition, the Board has adopted an incentive repayment policy (attached) for members of the Executive Committee, which you must sign and return to me coincident with your acceptance of this offer. For purposes of this letter, “Retirement” means your departure from employment with Tapestry other than for “cause” if either: (1) you have attained age 65 and five years of service with Tapestry, with at least one year of service as an employee of Tapestry or (2) you have attained age 55 and ten years of service with Tapestry, with at least one year of service as an employee of Tapestry.

3.	Equity Compensation

In connection with your appointment as Chief Executive Officer, you will receive equity awards with an aggregate grant date value of $3,500,000 (the “Appointment Grant”). The Appointment Grant will be made on the first business day of the fiscal month coincident with or following the Effective Date. The Appointment Grant will be 20% restricted stock units (“RSUs”), 40% performance restricted stock units (“PRSUs”) and 40% stock options. The PRSUs will be eligible to cliff vest on the third anniversary of the grant date and may vest between 0 to 200% of target shares depending on performance, subject to the terms and conditions of the grant agreement. The RSUs will vest and stock options will be exercisable one-fourth each year over four years beginning on the first anniversary of the grant date, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of the grant agreements. The number of stock options you receive will be based on the grant price (closing price of Tapestry, Inc. stock on the grant date) and on an industry standard valuation model, Black-Scholes, which determines the value of a stock option. The number of PRSUs and RSUs you receive will be based on the grant price. The grant agreements evidencing your Appointment Grant awards will set forth the treatment of those awards in the event of your Retirement from the Company.

Subject to your continued employment, you may be eligible for future equity awards in such amounts and forms as determined by the HR Committee in its sole discretion. All equity awards are subject to approval by the HR Committee.

You are subject to the terms and conditions of the grant agreements, including, but not limited to, the provisions relating to claw back of equity gains in certain post-employment scenarios. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this letter, the terms of the Tapestry, Inc. 2018 Stock Incentive Plan (as it may be amended from time to time, the "Stock Plan") and related grant agreements, as they may be changed from time to time, are controlling. In addition, the grant agreements evidencing your Appointment Grants will require that you retain 50% of the net shares acquired upon vesting or exercise for a period of one year following your termination of employment.

Outstanding equity awards granted to you prior to the Effective Date in respect of your service as a member of the Board will remain outstanding and eligible to vest in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreements.

Severance

You acknowledge and agree that you will not participate in either of the Tapestry, Inc. Severance Pay Plan for Vice Presidents and Above or the Tapestry, Inc. Special Severance Plan.

5.	Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code

It is expressly intended and contemplated that this letter comply with the provisions of Section 409A of the Code and the applicable guidance thereunder ("Section 409A") and that the payments hereunder will either be exempt from Section 409A or will comply with the provisions of Section 409A. This letter will be administered and interpreted in a manner consistent with this intent, and, notwithstanding any provision of this letter to the contrary, in the event that the Company determines that any amounts payable hereunder would be immediately taxable to you under Section 409A, the Company reserves the right (without any obligation to do so or to indemnify you for failure to do so) to amend this letter to satisfy Section 409A or be exempt therefrom (which amendment may be retroactive to the extent permitted by Section 409A).

Notwithstanding any other provision of this letter, if you are a "specified employee" within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §1.409A-1(i)(1), then the payment of any amount or the provision of any benefit under this letter which is considered deferred compensation subject to Section 409A shall be deferred for six (6) months after your "separation from service" or, if earlier, the date of your death to the extent required by Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) (the "409A Deferral Period"). In the event payments are otherwise due to be made in installments or periodically during the 409A Deferral Period, the payments which would otherwise have been made in the 409A Deferral Period shall be accumulated and paid in a lump sum on the Company’s first standard payroll date that arises on or after the 409A Deferral Period ends, and the balance of the payments shall be made as otherwise scheduled. For purposes of any provision of this letter providing for reimbursements to you, such reimbursements shall be made no later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which you incurred such expenses, and in no event shall the unused reimbursement amount during one calendar year be carried over into a subsequent calendar year. For purposes of this letter, you shall not be deemed to have terminated employment unless you have a "separation from service" within the meaning of Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(h). All rights to payments and benefits under this letter shall be treated as rights to receive a series of separate payments and benefits to the fullest extent allowed by Section 409A. In no event shall any liability for failure to comply with the requirements of Section 409A be transferred from you or any other individual to the Company or any of its affiliates, employees or agents.

ADDENDUM

COMPANY POLICIES & CONDITIONS OF EMPLOYMENT

As an employee of Tapestry, Inc. (the “Company”), you will be subject to the following policies. Please sign the acknowledgement at the end noting your understanding and agreement.

1.	Incentive Repayment Policy

Tapestry’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) has adopted an incentive repayment policy affecting all performance-based compensation that the Company pays to members of its Executive Committee. Information on this policy is attached. You agree that you remain subject to this repayment policy and that it may change from time-to-time as the Board deems appropriate and/or as is required by law.

2.	Executive Stock Ownership Policy

The Board has implemented a stock ownership policy for all “Key Executives” and Directors. Information on this policy and the required amounts of stock ownership for your position is attached. As a Key Executive and Section 16(b) officer you will be required to obtain pre-approval of all Tapestry stock transactions from the Tapestry Law Department and Tapestry’s Chief Legal Officer.

3.	Notice of Intent to Terminate Employment

If at any time you elect to terminate your employment with the Company, including a valid Retirement from the Company, you agree to provide six (6) months’ advance written notice of your intent to terminate your employment and such notice shall be provided via email to the Chief Legal Officer and Global Human Resources Officer of Tapestry. Such notice shall include, if applicable, the identity of the prospective employer or entity, your proposed title and duties with that business, person or enterprise, as well as the proposed starting date of that employment or consulting services. After you have provided your required notice, you will continue to be an employee of the Company. Your duties and other obligations as an employee of the Company will continue and you will be expected to cooperate in the transition of your responsibilities. The Company shall, however, have the right in its sole discretion to direct that you no longer come to work or to shorten the notice period. Nothing herein alters your status as an employee at-will. The Company reserves all legal and equitable rights to enforce the advance notice provisions of this paragraph. You acknowledge and agree that your failure to comply with the notice requirements set forth in this paragraph shall result in: (i) the Company being entitled to an immediate injunction, prohibiting you from commencing employment elsewhere for the length of the required notice, (ii) the Company being entitled to claw back any bonus paid to you within 180 days of your last day of employment with the Company, (iii) the forfeiture of any unpaid bonus as of your last day of employment with the Company, (iv) any unvested equity awards and any vested but unexercised stock option awards held by you shall be automatically forfeited on your last day of employment with the Company, and (v) the Company being entitled to claw back any Financial Gain (as defined below) you realize from the vesting of any Tapestry equity award within the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding your last day of employment with the Company. “Financial Gain” shall have the meaning set forth in the various equity award grant agreements that you receive during your employment with the Company.

4.	Post-Employment Restrictions

(a) Non-Competition. You are prohibited from, directly or indirectly, counseling, advising, consulting for, becoming employed by or providing services in any capacity to a “competitor” (as defined below) of the Company or any of its operating divisions, brands, subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively, the “Tapestry Group”) during your employment and for the twelve (12) month period beginning on your last day of employment with the Company (the “Restricted Period”).

“Competitor” includes: the companies, together with their respective subsidiaries, parent entities, and all other affiliates as set forth on Exhibit A, attached hereto (such companies subject to change from time-to-time as posted on Tapestry’s intranet, the Loop).

You agree that if you are offered and desire to accept employment with, or provide consulting services to, another business, person or enterprise, including, but not limited to, a “competitor,” during the Restricted Period, you will promptly inform Tapestry’s Global Human Resources Officer, in writing, of the identity of the prospective employer or entity, your proposed title and duties with that business, person or enterprise, and the proposed starting date of that employment or consulting services. You also agree that you will inform that prospective employer or entity of the terms of these provisions. Failure to abide by the requirements of this Section 4(a) will also be deemed a failure to provide the required advance written notice set forth above under Notice of Intent to Terminate Employment.

(b) Non-Solicitation. You agree that during the Restricted Period, you will not, directly or indirectly, whether alone or in association with or for the benefit of others, without the prior written consent of the Company, hire or attempt to hire, employ or solicit for employment, consulting or other service, any officer, employee or agent of the Tapestry Group (each, a “Protected Person”), or encourage, persuade or induce any Protected Person to terminate, diminish or otherwise alter such Protected Person’s relationship with the Tapestry Group.

For purposes of this Section 4(b) and to avoid any ambiguity, you and the Company agree that it will be a rebuttable presumption that you solicited any Protected Person if such Protected Person commences employment or other service for or on behalf of you or any entity to which you provide services or terminates, diminishes or otherwise alters such Protected Person’s relationship with the Tapestry Group prior to the end of the Restricted Period.

(c) Non-Interference. During the Restricted Period, you will not, directly or indirectly, whether alone or in association with or for the benefit of others, whether as an employee, owner, stockholder, partner, director, officer, consultant, advisor or otherwise, assist, attempt to or encourage (i) any vendor, supplier, customer or client of, or any other person or entity in a business relationship with the Tapestry Group to terminate, reduce, limit or otherwise alter such relationship, whether contractual or otherwise, (ii) any prospective vendor, supplier, customer or client not to enter into a business or contractual relationship with the Tapestry Group or (iii) to impair or attempt to impair any relationship, contractual or otherwise, between the Tapestry Group and any vendor, supplier, customer or client or any other person or entity in a business relationship with the Tapestry Group.

(d) Remedies. You acknowledge that compliance with Section 4 is necessary to protect the business, good will and proprietary and confidential information of the Tapestry Group and that a breach or threatened breach of any provision in Section 4 will irreparably and continually damage the Tapestry Group, for which money damages may not be adequate. Accordingly, in the event that you breach any provision in Section 4, you will forfeit any remaining earned but unpaid bonus and the Company shall be entitled to claw back any bonus paid to you within 180 days of your last day of employment with the Company. In addition, the Company will be entitled to preliminarily or permanently enjoin you from violating Section 4 in order to prevent the continuation of such harm.

Page 7 of 10

(e) Reasonableness of Restrictions. You acknowledge: (i) that the scope and duration of the restrictions on your activities under Section 4 are reasonable and necessary to protect the legitimate business interests, goodwill and confidential and proprietary information of the Tapestry Group; (ii) that the Tapestry Group does business worldwide and, therefore, you specifically agree that, in order to adequately protect the Tapestry Group, the scope of the restrictions in this provision is reasonable; and (iii) that you will be reasonably able to earn a living without violating the terms of these provisions. Nothing contained in this Section 4 is intended to limit any restrictive covenant provision contained in any other agreement between you and the Tapestry Group, including but not limited to any equity grant agreement, that may permit the Tapestry Group to seek injunctive relief, money damages or any other rights or remedies at law or in equity in the event of a breach of threatened breach of any restrictive covenant provision contained in any other agreement, which may provide for a longer restricted period than contained herein.

(f) Judicial Modification. If any court of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the covenants in Section 4, or any part of them, is invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of such covenants and parts thereof shall not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portion. If any court of competent jurisdiction determines that any of the covenants in Section 4, or any part of them, is invalid or unenforceable because of the geographic or temporal scope of such provisions, such court shall reduce such scope to the minimum extent necessary to make such covenants valid and enforceable. You agree that in the event that any court of competent jurisdiction finally holds that any provision of Section 4 constitutes an unreasonable restriction against you, such provision shall not be rendered void but shall apply to such extent as such court may judicially determine constitutes a reasonable restriction under the circumstances.

5.	Other Terms and Conditions of Employment

If you accept the Company’s offer, our relationship is "employment-at-will." That means you are free, at any time, for any reason, to end your employment with the Company and that the Company may do the same, subject to the advance notice requirements set forth above under Notice of Intent to Terminate Employment. You hereby represent and warrant that you are not currently, and have never been, the subject of any allegation or complaint of harassment, discrimination, retaliation, or sexual or other misconduct in connection with prior employment or otherwise, and have not been a party to any settlement agreement or nondisclosure agreement relating to such matters (the “Representations”).

For the purposes of this letter, termination for “cause” means a determination by the Board that your employment should be terminated for any of the following reasons: (i) your violation of the Company’s Code of Conduct, employee guides, or any other written policies or procedures of the Company, which is not remedied within 30 days of written notice to you, (ii) your violation of any of the Company’s policies regarding sexual harassment and misconduct, (iii) your indictment for, conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude, (iv) your willful or grossly negligent breach of your duties, (v) any act of fraud, embezzlement or other similar dishonest conduct, (vi) any act or omission that the Company determines could have a material adverse effect on the Company, including without limitation, its reputation, business interests or financial condition, which is not remedied within 30 days of written notice to you, via email (vii) your failure to follow the lawful directives of the Board, which is not remedied within 30 days of written notice to you, (viii) your breach of this offer letter or any other written agreement between you and the Company or any of its affiliates, which is not remedied within 30 days of written notice to you or (ix) your breach of the Representations set forth in this Section 5 above or the Restrictive Covenants set forth in Section 4 above.

For any dispute arising between the parties regarding or relating to this letter and/or any aspect of your employment, the parties hereby consent to the exclusive jurisdiction in the state and Federal courts located in New York, New York. This Agreement will be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the state of New York, without regard to conflicts of laws principles.

Our agreement regarding employment-at-will may not be changed, except specifically in writing signed by both the Chair of the Human Resources Committee of the Board and the Global Human Resources Officer of Tapestry and by you. However, the Board may in its discretion, add to, discontinue, or change compensation, duties, Company committees, benefits and policies. Nothing in the preceding two sentences shall be construed as diminishing the financial obligations of either of the parties hereunder, including, without limitation, the Company’s obligations to pay salary, bonus, equity compensation, severance, etc., pursuant to the pertinent provisions set forth above. All payments made hereunder are subject to the usual withholdings required by law. In the event of a breach by you of any provision of this offer letter and/or any of the Company policies which are included herewith, you agree to reimburse the Company for any and all reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses related to the enforcement of this agreement, including, but not limited to, the clawback of gains specified hereunder.
