<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 8%">On July&nbsp;24, 1986, New York substantially revised the provisions of the New York Business
Corporation Law (&#147;BCL&#148;) to permit New York corporations to extend broader protection to their
directors and officers by way of indemnity and advancement of expenses than that previously
afforded by New York law. On October&nbsp;31, 1986, the Board amended IFF&#146;s By-laws to extend such
indemnification and advancement of expenses to its directors and officers. Article&nbsp;II, Section&nbsp;14
of IFF&#146;s By-laws, as amended (the &#147;By-laws&#148;), provides among other things that IFF shall indemnify
a person against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses arising out
of an action or proceeding, to which such person shall have been made a party by reason of the fact
he or she is or was a director or officer of the corporation, unless a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to such person establishes that his or her acts were committed in bad faith or
were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the action so adjudicated,
or that he or she personally gained in fact a personal profit or other advantage to which he or she
was not entitled. The By-laws also require IFF to advance litigation expenses of such director or
officer upon receipt of an undertaking to repay such advances if the director or officer is
ultimately determined not to be entitled to indemnification.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 8%">In July&nbsp;1987, New York added Section 402(b) to the BCL which permits New York corporations,
with shareholder approval, to amend their certificates of incorporation in order to eliminate or
limit the personal liability of directors to a corporation and its shareholders for damages arising
from breaches of the directors&#146; duty. On May&nbsp;13, 1988, IFF amended its Certificate of Incorporation
by adding a new Article&nbsp;Eleventh which had been approved by the shareholders on May&nbsp;12, 1988.
Article&nbsp;Eleventh provides that no director of IFF shall be personally liable to IFF or its
shareholders for damages for any breach of duty as a director. Article&nbsp;Eleventh does not permit
elimination or limitation of the liability of any director if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to him or her establishes that (i)&nbsp;his or her acts or omissions were in bad
faith or involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or that he or she personally
derived a financial profit or other advantage to which he or she was not legally entitled, or (ii)
that his or her action involved (a)&nbsp;an improper declaration of any dividend or other distribution,
(b)&nbsp;an improper redemption by IFF of its own shares, (c)&nbsp;the distribution of assets to shareholders
after dissolution, without paying or adequately providing for, with certain exceptions, known
liabilities of IFF or (d)&nbsp;the making of an improper loan to a director. Article&nbsp;Eleventh also does
not authorize any limitation on the ability of IFF or its shareholders to obtain injunctive relief,
specific performance or other equitable remedies, and would not apply to acts or omissions which
occurred prior to the filing of the amendment to IFF&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation containing the
limitation on directors&#146; liability.

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 8%">On December&nbsp;9, 1975, the Board adopted a resolution pursuant to which IFF is obligated to
indemnify, to the
extent permitted by law, any director, officer or employee of IFF against any liability arising out
of claims under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-indent: 8%">In 2008, our Board approved an amendment to our By-laws to authorize IFF to provide
indemnification and advancement rights by separate agreement to certain persons, including our
officers and directors, and on July&nbsp;22, 2008, the Board approved a form of indemnification
agreement to be entered into by IFF, on the one hand, and each of IFF&#146;s directors and officers, on
the other hand (each, an &#147;Indemnification Agreement&#148;). Among other things, each Indemnification
Agreement provides that IFF will indemnify the indemnitee against certain expenses (including
attorneys&#146; fees), judgments, fines, penalties and settlement amounts that may be incurred by such
person in connection with civil, criminal or other claims or other proceedings that may result from
such person&#146;s service as a director and/or officer of IFF or in such other capacities as IFF may
request, except if such person&#146;s acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and
deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or that he or she
personally gained a financial profit or other advantage to which he or she was not legally
entitled. In addition, each Indemnification Agreement provides for the advancement of expenses to
the indemnitee.

arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not
exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated
maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more
than a 20&nbsp;percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the &#147;Calculation of
Registration Fee&#148; table in the effective Registration Statement; and (iii)&nbsp;to include any material
information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement, provided,

Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement; (2)&nbsp;that,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3)&nbsp;to remove from registration by means of a

foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in

such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with
the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
On July 24, 1986, New York substantially revised the provisions of the New York Business
Corporation Law ("BCL") to permit New York corporations to extend broader protection to their
directors and officers by way of indemnity and advancement of expenses than that previously
afforded by New York law. On October 31, 1986, the Board amended IFF's By-laws to extend such
indemnification and advancement of expenses to its directors and officers. Article II, Section 14
of IFF's By-laws, as amended (the "By-laws"), provides among other things that IFF shall indemnify
a person against judgments, fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses arising out
of an action or proceeding, to which such person shall have been made a party by reason of the fact
he or she is or was a director or officer of the corporation, unless a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to such person establishes that his or her acts were committed in bad faith or
were the result of active and deliberate dishonesty and were material to the action so adjudicated,
or that he or she personally gained in fact a personal profit or other advantage to which he or she
was not entitled. The By-laws also require IFF to advance litigation expenses of such director or
officer upon receipt of an undertaking to repay such advances if the director or officer is
ultimately determined not to be entitled to indemnification.
In July 1987, New York added Section 402(b) to the BCL which permits New York corporations,
with shareholder approval, to amend their certificates of incorporation in order to eliminate or
limit the personal liability of directors to a corporation and its shareholders for damages arising
from breaches of the directors' duty. On May 13, 1988, IFF amended its Certificate of Incorporation
by adding a new Article Eleventh which had been approved by the shareholders on May 12, 1988.
Article Eleventh provides that no director of IFF shall be personally liable to IFF or its
shareholders for damages for any breach of duty as a director. Article Eleventh does not permit
elimination or limitation of the liability of any director if a judgment or other final
adjudication adverse to him or her establishes that (i) his or her acts or omissions were in bad
faith or involved intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law or that he or she personally
derived a financial profit or other advantage to which he or she was not legally entitled, or (ii)
that his or her action involved (a) an improper declaration of any dividend or other distribution,
(b) an improper redemption by IFF of its own shares, (c) the distribution of assets to shareholders
after dissolution, without paying or adequately providing for, with certain exceptions, known
liabilities of IFF or (d) the making of an improper loan to a director. Article Eleventh also does
not authorize any limitation on the ability of IFF or its shareholders to obtain injunctive relief,
specific performance or other equitable remedies, and would not apply to acts or omissions which
occurred prior to the filing of the amendment to IFF's Certificate of Incorporation containing the
limitation on directors' liability.
On December 9, 1975, the Board adopted a resolution pursuant to which IFF is obligated to
indemnify, to the
extent permitted by law, any director, officer or employee of IFF against any liability arising out
of claims under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.
In 2008, our Board approved an amendment to our By-laws to authorize IFF to provide
indemnification and advancement rights by separate agreement to certain persons, including our
officers and directors, and on July 22, 2008, the Board approved a form of indemnification
agreement to be entered into by IFF, on the one hand, and each of IFF's directors and officers, on
the other hand (each, an "Indemnification Agreement"). Among other things, each Indemnification
Agreement provides that IFF will indemnify the indemnitee against certain expenses (including
attorneys' fees), judgments, fines, penalties and settlement amounts that may be incurred by such
person in connection with civil, criminal or other claims or other proceedings that may result from
such person's service as a director and/or officer of IFF or in such other capacities as IFF may
request, except if such person's acts were committed in bad faith or were the result of active and
deliberate dishonesty and were material to the cause of action so adjudicated, or that he or she
personally gained a financial profit or other advantage to which he or she was not legally
entitled. In addition, each Indemnification Agreement provides for the advancement of expenses to
the indemnitee.
IFF also maintains Directors and Officers Liability Insurance on behalf of its officers and
directors.

Item 9.
Undertakings.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) to file, during any period in which offers
or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement (i) to include
any prospectus required by Section
10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) to reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the
information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or
decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not
exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated
maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission
pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more
than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of
Registration Fee" table in the effective Registration Statement; and (iii) to include any material
information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration
Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement, provided,
however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included
in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished
to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement; (2) that,
for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such
post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be
the initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) to remove from registration by means of a
post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability
under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section
13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing
of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be
a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such
securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be
permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the
foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in
the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against
such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a
director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with
the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the
matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and
will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, the Registrant certifies that it
has reasonable grounds to believe that it meets all of the requirements for filing on Form S-8 and
