This Amendment No. 1 (this Amendment) amends and supplements Item 8 in the
Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (the Schedule 14D-9) initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC) on September 26, 2008, by Napster, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
Company). The Schedule 14D-9 relates to a tender offer by Puma Cat Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (Purchaser) and a wholly-owned subsidiary of Best Buy Co., Inc., a Minnesota corporation (Parent),
disclosed in a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO, as amended through the date hereof (as amended, the Schedule TO), originally filed with the SEC on September 26, 2008, to purchase all issued and outstanding shares of the
Companys common stock, and the stock purchase rights associated with such shares (the Shares), at a price of $2.65 per Share, without interest or accrued dividends, net to the seller in cash, upon the terms and subject to the
conditions in the Offer to Purchase dated September 26, 2008 (as amended or supplemented from time to time) and in the related Letter of Transmittal (as amended or supplemented from time to time), which were filed as exhibits to the Schedule
TO.
All information in the Schedule 14D-9 is incorporated by reference in this Amendment, except that such information is hereby amended
and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein. Except as otherwise indicated, the information set forth in the Schedule 14D-9 remains unchanged. Capitalized terms used below but not defined in this Amendment have the meanings set forth
in the Schedule 14D-9.
Item 8. Additional Information.
Item 8 of Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding a new paragraph inserted below the fourth paragraph under the existing heading (f) Regulatory Approvals.
On September 30, 2008, the Company and Parent each received notice from the FTC that the Companys and Parents requests for early
termination of the required waiting period with respect to the Offer have been granted, and that such waiting period has terminated. Accordingly, the condition to the Offer that Shares will not be accepted for payment or paid for pursuant to the
Offer until the expiration or earlier termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act has been satisfied.
SIGNATURE
After due inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
