This Amendment No. 4 (“Amendment No. 4”) relates to the Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 26, 2007 (the “Original Statement”), as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Schedule 13D filed on January 16, 2008, Amendment No. 2 to the Schedule 13D filed on March 25, 2008 and Amendment No. 3 to the Schedule 13D filed on May 16, 2008, relating to the Common Stock, $.01 par value per share (the “Shares”), of Tiffany & Co., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”).  The address of the principal executive offices of the Issuer is 727 Fifth Avenue, New York, New York 10022.

Items 4, 5, 6 and 7 of the Schedule 13D are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Item 4.  Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Following the sales of Shares set forth on Schedule A hereto, the Filing Persons continue to beneficially own an aggregate of 8,488,600 Shares representing approximately 6.90% of the Issuer’s outstanding Shares (based upon 123,108,737 Shares stated by the Issuer to be outstanding as of November 30, 2008 in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on December 2, 2008).  The Filing Persons have no current intention of selling any additional Shares in the near term.  In addition, Mr. May continues to serve as a director of the Issuer.  The Filing Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and, depending on various factors, the Filing Persons may in the future take such actions with respect to their investment in the Issuer as they deem appropriate, including, but not limited to, purchasing additional Shares or selling some or all of the Shares or otherwise changing their intention with respect to any and all matters referred to in Item 4 of the Schedule 13D.

Item 5.  Interest in Securities of the Issuer

(a) As of 4:00 pm, New York City time, on March 26, 2009, the Filing Persons beneficially owned, in the aggregate, 8,488,600 Shares, representing approximately 6.90% of the Issuer’s outstanding Shares (based upon 123,108,737 Shares stated by the Issuer to be outstanding as of November 30, 2008 in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed on December 2, 2008).
 
(b) Each of Trian Onshore, Trian Offshore, Parallel Fund I, Parallel Fund II and Mr. May beneficially and directly owns and has sole voting power and sole dispositive power with regard to 2,098,038, 5,822,943, 204,603, 0 and 20,000 Shares, respectively, except to the extent that other Filing Persons as described below may be deemed to have shared voting power and shared dispositive power with regard to such Shares.  Beneficial ownership of 343,016 Shares that are directly held in the Separate Account is further described below.

Each of Trian GP, Trian GP LLC, Trian Management, Trian Management GP, Nelson Peltz, Peter W. May and Edward P. Garden disclaims beneficial ownership of such Shares for all other purposes.
