Explanation of responses

- F2KJC Ltd. is a Delaware limited partnership of which the reporting person is the sole general partner and of which three of his adult children are limited partners. Reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of Tiffany & Co. stock held by KJC Ltd.
- F3Article IV trust dated August 1, 2012 for one of the reporting person's adult children. Reporting person's spouse, Fay Shutzer, is the sole trustee of the trust. Reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the Tiffany & Co. stock held by the trust.
- F4Represents dividend equivalent units accrued on July 10, 2017 in respect of vested restricted stock units granted to the reporting person on May 26, 2016 pursuant to the Tiffany & Co. 2008 Directors Equity Compensation Plan, which complies with Rule 16b-3. The dividend equivalent units convert to the issuer's common stock on a one-for-one basis.
- F5The dividend equivalent units vest proportionately with the underlying restricted stock units to which they relate. The reporting person has elected to defer the maturity date of the 1,269 vested restricted stock units and the related dividend equivalent units (and thereby the delivery of the related shares) until six months after the date on which he ceases to be a director. The terms of the restricted stock units provide for earlier delivery upon the death, or the end of service as a result of the disability, of the reporting person.
