WHICH HAVE PREVIOUSLY DECLARED THE FOLLOWING

The company NICKEL SA, whose registered office is located at 92300 LEVALLOIS PERRET, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (hereinafter called "the Company"), will have, following acquisition by the company Inter Parfums of part of the shares of the NICKEL SA Company, holdings in shares in the following proportion:

- ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ (2303 shares) 14.54%
- IDIA PARTICIPATIONS (1742 shares) 11%
- CREDIT LYONNAIS CAPITAL INVESTISSEMENT (1742 shares) 11%
- INTER PARFUMS (10053 shares) 63.47%

Provided the composition of the Company's capital is distributed in the proportions herebefore cited at the moment the agreement is signed, pursuant to the transfers of shares to occur during the period between April 1 and April 12, 2004, this Shareholders Agreement is intended to govern the relations between ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, the Financial Backers and Inter Parfums.

This agreement cancels and replaces any former agreement between the parties having the same purpose and more particularly the Shareholders Agreement signed between ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the Financial Backers on December 20, 2000.

In addition, in the event of a contradiction between the provisions of present and the provisions of the statutes of the Company, the provisions of these presents will prevail.

CLAUSE I - SCOPE OF THE AGREEMENT

This pact relates to both shares held or which will be held by the Parties but also to all transferable securities that fall under the meaning of Commercial Law (hereafter called "Shares") of such nature that may be put in place in the future by the Company.

Within the present agreement, the word "Transfer" indicates any change subject to payment or not involving a transfer of property (or use or enjoyment of property) of any share whatever the basis or form thereof that may take place within the following framework to include, but not limited to (list is not exhaustive), a transfer, an exchange such as a contribution, a merger or a scission, a donation, a death, a liquidation of company, succession or community, a loan of shares, a fiduciary constitution, a distribution in kind.

Any individual relinquishment of a preferential right to purchase or allot shares, such as any transfer of a right as in any operation of merger, partial contribution of shares, scission, an increase or reduction of capital, issuance of warrants for subscription or shares of this Company, in general, any operation having the effect of modifying, creating, exchanging or losing shares issued by the Company.

In this respect, the parties recall that in execution of clause 7 of the act called "Offer for Purchase and Sale of Stock of the Nickel SA Company Under Conditions Precedent" dated March 29, 2004, it was agreed that new capital stock would be issued by the Company, for the amount of 105,000 (hereafter called: "The Increase") By mutual agreement between the parties, the distribution of capital which will result from the Increase, will be substituted purely and simply, by the execution of the provisions of these presents, with the distribution of the Company's capital as set forth in the preamble of these presents. The new shares resulting from "the Increase" will follow the definition of the headings.

CLAUSE II - RIGHT OF PREEMPTION

It should be remembered that the shares previously held by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the Financial Backers are the purpose of an offer to purchase and to sell as set forth in clauses V and VI of these presents. Consequently, any project involving the Transfer of Company Shares, whatever the position of the beneficiary might be, as long as the offer to purchase and transfer is in force, and except in the case of implementation of a joint sale of stakes as referred to in clause XII of the Agreement, shall require the express agreement of Inter Parfums.

Under the condition of obtaining the agreement referred to above:

1- The parties agree to confer on each other a reciprocal pre-emptive right based on the criteria below.

This pre-emptive right applies to the Securities in the Company owned by the Parties which are part of any Transfer by Sale, with the reservation set forth under paragraph II-1-c.

a) To exercise this pre-emptive right, the transferring shareholder must notify, by registered letter with return receipt, indicating the name and address (corporate name and headquarters if the latter is an entity), the Company represented by its Chairman, whom the signatories have designated as joint representative to receive said notice and ensure that the right of pre-emption is exercised in good and due form, of the plan of the Transferee under consideration and its final business assigns, the number of shares to be transferred and other conditions of the proposed Transfer of the Transfer by Sale.

The Company, represented by its Chairman, shall inform the parties to these presents of the plan of Transfer by Sale within a fortnight of the receipt of the registered letter from the transferring party on the plan to Transfer by Sale from the assignor, by registered letter with return receipt restating all the information supplied by the transferring party on said Transfer by Sale.

The Shareholders shall exercise their pre-emptive rights within thirty days of receipt of notice of the plan to Transfer by Sale by means of a registered letter with return receipt addressed to the Company that refers to the number of Securities they wish to acquire.

A copy of the response shall be sent by the Chairman of the Company to the other signatories on the same day.

No answer within the aforementioned timeframe shall be taken as a waiver of pre-emptive rights.

In the event several shareholders exercise their pre-emptive rights, the Securities to be pre-empted shall be divided among them on based on their pro-rata ownership of the remaining capital.

In the event the total number of Securities that the Shareholders state they wish to acquire is greater than the number of Securities to which they have pre-emption rights, and absent an agreement amongst them on the dividing up of said Securities, said Securities shall be divided amongst them on the pro-rata basis of their equity ownership. The non-convertible, unamortized CB's, should there be any, shall be considered amortized - with the remainder being divided up at the highest average, but within the limitation of their request.

Should, in the event of a Transfer by Sale, the Shareholders not exercise their pre-emptive rights with regard to all the Securities referred to in the notification, said pre-emptive rights shall be considered as not having been exercised.

Should the Transfer by Sale contain a cash price offer from a third party, said Transfer by Sale shall occur at the price in the first notification.

In the event the Transfer by Sale contains a price without cash value, the Transfer by Sale shall take place at the price without cash value as indicated in the first notification. In the event of disagreement amongst the Parties, the price shall be set pursuant to the provisions of Article 1843-4 of the Civil Code.

As indicated at the beginning of this clause, prior to implementing the procedure to satisfy the pre-emptive rights, the transferring party, must obtain, for the securities that are the purpose of the Purchase and Sale Offer, Inter Parfums' agreement as stipulated at the beginning of this clause.

b) The right of pre-emption only applies to the following cases:

Transfer by one of the parties hereto to a company in which it owns more than 50% of the capital or to a company owning more than 50% of the transferring party's capital, or to a company in which more than 50% is owned by a company owning more than 50% of the transferring party's capital, or to a mutual fund (SICAV or Fonds Commun de Placement) which the signatory manages on the condition that the 50% is retained throughout the validity of the agreement. On the contrary, the NICKEL securities owned by the company in question would be subject to pre-emption, as set forth herein, the price being set by an expert.
Exercise of rights by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and/or the Financial Backers of the Offer to Purchase given by Inter Parfums under Clause III.1.
Exercise of the purchase rights pursuant to Clause IV and V.
Sale of Securities by ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as per Clause XI.

In this case, the transferring party shall inform the Chairman of the Company about the Transfer by Sale according to the criteria set forth in a) above.

c) Furthermore, the right of pre-emption between the Financial Backers shall come first in the event of a Sale of Securities they own to another Financial Backer as per the criteria hereinabove; in the event this first-ranked right of pre-emption is not exercised, the other signatories to this agreement shall then be entitled to the regular right of pre-emption as per the aforementioned criteria.

CLAUSE III - ANTI-DILUTION

1. The Financial Backers and ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ are entitled to retain a permanent right to their holdings in the equity of the NICKEL Company as a share of said capital (hereafter the "Equity Stake") that the shares they own shall represent after the Capital Increase referred to in Clause 1 of these presents.

In the event the Capital Increase may not take place, the Equity Stake taken into account would be the Equity Stake referred to in the first paragraph of the introduction to these presents.

Therefore, Inter Parfums agrees, in the event Securities in the equity of the NICKEL Company are issued, immediately or at a later time, by any means whatever, that ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Financiers be entitled to subscribe to Securities of the same kind under the same conditions, and in particular with regard to the issue price of the Securities, in such a manner that they retain their Equity Stake.

In the event a third party or a shareholder other than ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ or the Financial Backers were to subscribe to a reserved issue of Securities in the Company, with equity stake entitlement, Inter Parfums shall have to make an offer, or have another party make one, to sell ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the Financial Backers a quantity of new shares that are sufficient for them to maintain their Equity Share.

The price shall be payable as per the conditions set forth for Issues of Securities.

Inter Parfums shall be released from the aforementioned Offer to Sell, if it obtains the prior written consent of ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the Financial backers on the reserved shares issue plan presented at the extraordinary meeting of shareholders.

2. In the event the extraordinary meeting of shareholders of the Company votes to increase equity with suppression of the preferential subscription right to the advantage of one or several investors outside Inter Parfums and/or any company in which Inter Parfums owns more than a 50% stake and voting rights, Inter Parfums agrees to offer ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and Financial Backers the right to subscribe to the capital increase instead of and in lieu of the presumed investor(s) and under the same terms.

Therefore, Inter Parfums shall notify, by registered letter with notice of receipt requested, ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ and the Financial Backers forty five days prior to the date scheduled for the finalization of the re-issue, the conditions and criteria of the issue as well as the identity of the presumed outside investor(s).

The Financial Backers and ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall have thirty days as from the date the aforementioned registered letter is presented to make known to Inter Parfums whether or not they intend to exercise their subscription right. Absent a response within this timeframe, the Financial Backers and ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall be deemed to have waived their substitution rights and Inter Parfums shall be free to undertake the scheduled issue.

Should the Financial Backers and ▇▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ intend to exercise their substitution rights, they agree irrevocably to participate in the issuance as per the conditions set forth and reiterated in the notification letter received from Inter Parfums.

3. As the basic, determinative condition of assistance from the Financial Backers is their participation in the general development of the NICKEL Company, it is agreed that preference shall be given to the Financial Backers over any third party to this agreement for providing, under the same conditions of a presumed third party, any new financial assistance to the Company or any other Company that it has a controlling interest in or will have a controlling interest in.

Financial assistance signifies any operation for the subscription or acquisitions in whatever manner whether by a Securities Investor entitled to an Allocation of Securities, whether immediately or in the future, that represents directly or indirectly an equity share in the Company.
