Communication with Directors

Shareholders and other parties interested in communicating directly with the non-management directors as a group or all directors as a group may do so by writing to the non-management directors or the Board of Directors, in each case, at:

Non-Management Directors or Board of Directors
c/o Secretary
International Flavors & Fragrances Inc.
521 West 57th Street
New York, NY 10019

All communications should include the name, address, telephone number and email address (if any) of the person submitting the communication and indicate whether the person is a shareholder of our Company.

The Board has approved a process for handling correspondence received by our Company on behalf of a non-management director or directors as a group. Under that process, the General Counsel reviews all such correspondence and maintains a log of and forwards to the appropriate Board member, correspondence that is relevant to (i) the functions of the Board or committees thereof or (ii) other significant matters involving our Company. The General Counsel may screen frivolous or unlawful communications and commercial advertisements. Directors may review the log maintained by the General Counsel at any time.

Concerns relating to accounting, internal controls or auditing matters are immediately brought to the attention of our internal auditor and handled in accordance with procedures established by the Audit Committee with respect to such matters.
