Herbalife Ltd. (NYSE: HLF) (“Herbalife”) announced today it is amending its previously announced cash tender offer in order to clarify or expand upon certain disclosures in response to comments from the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including providing more detail regarding contingent value rights (each, a “CVR”), which make up a part of the purchase price. In addition, in order to provide shareholders with sufficient additional time to evaluate the amendments to the tender offer, Herbalife is extending the expiration time of the tender offer from 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on September 19, 2017, to 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on October 5, 2017, unless the tender offer is further extended.

The tender offer is for Herbalife’s common shares, par value $0.001 per share (“shares”), for an aggregate cash purchase price of up to $600 million and at a per share price not less than $60.00 nor greater than $68.00, the exact price to be determined through a “modified Dutch auction,” and a certain contractual CVR (“tender offer”). The tender offer consideration remains the same. The full terms and conditions of the Amended and Restated Offer to Purchase and the extension of the expiration time are discussed in the Schedule TO amendment Herbalife is filing today with the SEC.

None of Herbalife, its Board of Directors or its affiliates, nor the information agent or the depositary and paying agent, are making any recommendation to shareholders as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering their shares into the tender offer. Shareholders must decide how many shares they will tender, if any, and the cash price within the stated range at which they will offer their shares for purchase by Herbalife. In doing so, shareholders should read carefully the information in the Offer to Purchase and the other offer documents.
