Dear Colleague:

I wanted to share some more exciting news that builds on the recent announcement of IFF’s agreement to combine with DuPont’s Nutrition & Biosciences (N&B) business and marks an important milestone in our effort to integrate our two organizations.

Effective at the end of January 2020, our EVP and Chief Financial Officer, Rich O’Leary, will take on the role of EVP, Integration Officer for IFF. This is a significant first step in the integration process that will bring IFF and N&B together.

In his new role, Rich will oversee IFF’s planning and execution efforts related to the N&B integration process. He will serve as our head representative within the Joint Integration Office, which will be composed of the best leaders from both of our organizations. We expect that N&B will name their integration lead shortly and we will be sure to share any updates on this effort with you.

I am immensely grateful for Rich and for his many contributions leading our global finance organization during his time as our CFO. He has been at the center of our transformative combination with DuPont N&B and we are extremely fortunate that he will now serve as our integration lead. I am confident that his institutional knowledge, valuable insights and perspectives will be extremely additive to his new role. Working in collaboration with the team from N&B, Rich will bring all of the tools and capabilities necessary to lead the successful integration of our two organizations. Rich will continue to work closely with me and will remain a critical member of IFF’s Executive Committee and will continue to be based in New York.

I am also pleased to announce that Rustom Jilla, current Chief Financial Officer of manufacturing distributor MSC Industrial Direct Co., a premier distributor of Metalworking and Maintenance, Repair and Operations products and services to industrial customers throughout North America, will become our new Chief Financial Officer, effective January 20, 2020. Rustom, together with Rich, will work diligently to ensure a smooth and successful transition and will further collaborate to execute the companies’ merger integration roadmap.

Rustom is a highly qualified finance executive with more than 30 years of experience and over 15 years of experience as the CFO of multiple public and global manufacturing and distribution businesses. He brings to IFF a strong track-record of operational and financial leadership across several international

markets, with significant experience in managing global finance teams, developing strategy, driving efficiency initiatives and completing acquisitions. I am confident we will benefit from his expertise as we begin our next phase of growth and execute our combination with N&B. I look forward to welcoming Rustom to IFF and I firmly believe he will be a strong addition to our team.

I look forward to speaking with many of you in person over the next few weeks as we schedule employee town halls to further discuss this announcement, our ongoing integration progress and the exciting future of our new combined company.

Finally, I want to thank you again for your continued support. This is a critical project for our company moving forward and, with your continued hard work and dedication, we are well on our way to redefine the industry and become an invaluable innovation partner to our customers.

Sincerely,

Andreas

Dear Finance Team,

As you may have seen in a note from Andreas, effective next month, I will be transitioning from my role as CFO of IFF to lead the N&B integration process as IFF’s EVP Integration Officer. Alongside a leader from the N&B team, who we expect will be announced shortly, I will head our newly formed joint Integration Office to support all things related to integrating IFF and N&B.

It has been an absolute pleasure to have been a part of IFF’s finance organization over the last 12+ years. I am proud of the progress we’ve made, the talent base that we have built and the impact the global finance function has had on IFF’s success over the period. Change is always an integral part of any successful organization; whether it be our Finance Transformation journey or the N&B integration. I am excited to take on this new role to help bring IFF and N&B together and realize the many promising opportunities that lie ahead for our combined company. I am extremely grateful to Andreas, the Board and my EC peers for the trust they have placed in asking me to take on this challenge; I will certainly need help from everyone to be successful.

Please join me in welcoming Rustom Jilla to our organization. Rustom comes to IFF from MSC Industrial Supply, where he led many transformation efforts. I am confident that his operational and financial skills will complement those of our finance team and build on the already strong department that we’ve created. I will be working together with Rustom through the first quarter of 2020 to ensure a smooth and successful transition for the both of us.

I will continue to work closely with – and rely on – many of you in my new role and throughout this process. I am deeply grateful for all of your hard work and dedication you have provided over the past several years and I am deeply proud of all that we have accomplished.

While there are still some details to be worked out, I look forward to speaking with you over the next few weeks to discuss my new role and what it means for you, our ongoing integration process and the exciting future for our new combined company.

In the meantime, I wish you all happy holidays and hope you can enjoy some time with your family.

Sincerely,

Rich

Participants in the Solicitation


		Dear Scent Colleague,
		It’s been quite a week! I wanted to take this opportunity to build on the note shared by Andreas, and let you know why I’m excited for what IFF’s recently announced agreement to combine with DuPont’s Nutrition & Biosciences (N&B) business means for our Scent Business Unit.
		I’d like to start by reminding you that our Scent BU has been a key driver of IFF’s recent success, and our business will continue to be vital to the Company. IFF also recently made a large investment into our business unit, which resulted in new or expanded creative centers in Bell Works in New Jersey and Neuilly in Paris. We are also opening two new Ingredients plants - one in China and one in India (one of the largest such plants in the industry). Moving forward, our Scent portfolio, specifically its complementary nature with Nutrition & Business’ offerings, is a major reason why N&B is so attracted to partnering with IFF, and together, we will have increased access to the market and our customers. As a result of the merger, we will be the only company integrated in biotech and will offer additional capabilities that will benefit our Scent customers.

		For our Fine Fragrance customers, we foresee some immediate benefits, such as scale advantage for R&D and ingredients, biotechnology vertical integration, and our shared commitment to sustainability. Further, we believe our innovation pipeline has the potential to be unmatched in the industry.

		At the highest level – we view this transaction as an opportunity to better serve our customers by offering a full suite of solutions that address their needs and evolving consumer demand. Our scent capabilities will be an important component of what IFF brings to market as a combined company.

		Here’s an example of what that will look like. Once the transaction is complete, we will have among the largest customer bases in the industry, and we intend to bring IFF’s leading Scent capabilities to N&B’s customers by cross-selling and combining our complementary product offerings. We see exciting opportunities to do this in fabric care, beauty care, and many other categories.

		As part of the expanded resources and enhanced R&D capabilities we will have once this combination is complete, we will continue investing in Scent to ensure we are meeting the evolving needs of our customers. In fact, we will have one of the largest R&D budgets of the industry with a much broader portfolio available. Together, we will have more than 12,000 patents and 130 research, technology and innovation centers. This unique blend of science and artistry will create additional opportunities for our team and produce even better results for our customers, enabling us to work with them on a strategic level.

		This is an exciting time for IFF – and for our Scent division – and I am confident that this combination will position our organization and our team for continued success well into the future.

		I send you my sincerest wishes for a wonderful holiday. I hope you can take the time to relax and recharge. 2020 looks to be an exciting year for us!

		Sincerely,

		NICOLAS MIRZAYANTZ
