WARRANT TO PURCHASE COMMON SHARES OF HERBALIFE LTD.
(Subject to Adjustment)
NO. 1
THIS CERTIFIES THAT, for value received, GGC Administration, L.L.C. or its permitted registered assigns ("Holder"), is entitled, subject to the terms and conditions of this Warrant, at any time or from time to time after July 1, 2005 (the "Effective Date"), and before 5:00 p.m. Pacific Time on December 1, 2014 (the "Expiration Date"), to purchase from Herbalife Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted limited liability company (the "Company") TWO HUNDRED FORTY-FIVE THOUSAND (245,000) Common Shares of the Company at a price per share of $15.50 (the "Purchase Price"). Both the number of Common Shares purchasable upon exercise of this Warrant and the Purchase Price are subject to adjustment and change as provided herein. This Warrant is issued pursuant to that certain Termination Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2004 (the "Termination Agreement"), between the Company and Holder.
"Fair Market Value" of a Common Share as of a particular date shall mean:
(a) If traded on a securities exchange or the Nasdaq National Market, the Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing prices of the Common Shares of the Company on such exchange or market over the 5 business days ending immediately prior to the applicable date of valuation;
(b) If actively traded over-the-counter, the Fair Market Value shall be deemed to be the average of the closing bid prices over the 30-day period ending immediately prior to the applicable date of valuation; and
(c) If there is no active public market, the Fair Market Value shall be the value as determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors.
"HSR Act" shall mean the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976.
"Registered Holder" shall mean any Holder in whose name this Warrant is registered upon the books and records maintained by the Company.
"Warrant" as used herein, shall include this Warrant and any warrant delivered in substitution or exchange therefor as provided herein.
"Common Shares" shall mean the Common Shares of the Company and any other securities at any time receivable or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant.
2. EXERCISE OF WARRANT
2.1. Payment. Subject to compliance with the terms and conditions of this Warrant and applicable securities laws, this Warrant may be exercised, in whole or in part at any time or from time to time between (and including) the Effective Date and the Expiration Date by the delivery (including, without limitation, delivery by facsimile) of the form of Notice of Exercise attached hereto as Exhibit 1 (the "Notice of Exercise"), duly executed by the Holder, at the principal office of the Company, and as soon as practicable after such date, surrendering:
(a) this Warrant at the principal office of the Company, and
(b) payment, (i) in cash (by certified or banker's check) or by wire transfer, (ii) by cancellation by the Holder of indebtedness of the Company to the Holder; or (iii) by a combination of (i) and (ii), of an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the number of Common Shares being purchased upon such exercise by the then effective Purchase Price (the "Exercise Amount"), except that if Holder is subject to HSR Act Restrictions (as defined in Section 2.5 below), the Exercise Amount shall be paid to the Company within five (5) business days of the termination of all HSR Act Restrictions.
2.2. Net Issue Exercise. In lieu of the payment methods set forth in Section 2.1(b) above, the Holder may elect to exchange all or some of the Warrant for Common Shares equal to the value of the amount of the Warrant being exchanged on the date of exchange. If Holder elects to exchange this Warrant as provided in this Section 2.2, Holder shall tender to the Company the Warrant for the amount being exchanged, along with written notice of Holder's election to exchange some or all of the Warrant, and the Company shall issue to Holder the number of Common Shares computed using the following formula:
| X | = | Y (A-B) A |
Where X = the number of Common Shares to be issued to Holder.
Y = the number of Common Shares purchasable under the amount of the Warrant being exchanged (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).
A = the Fair Market Value of one Common Share.
B = Purchase Price (as adjusted to the date of such calculation).
All references herein to an "exercise" of the Warrant shall include an exchange pursuant to this Section 2.2.
2.3. "Easy Sale" Exercise. In lieu of the payment methods set forth in Section 2.1(b) above, when permitted by law and applicable regulations (including Nasdaq and NASD rules), the Holder may pay the Exercise Amount through a "same day sale" commitment from the Holder (and if applicable a broker-dealer that is a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers (a "NASD Dealer")), whereby the Holder irrevocably elects to exercise this Warrant and to sell at least that number of Shares so purchased to pay the Exercise Amount (and up to all of the Shares so purchased) and the Holder (or, if applicable, the NASD Dealer) commits upon sale (or, in the case of the NASD Dealer, upon receipt) of such Shares to forward the Exercise Amount directly to the Company, with any sale proceeds in excess of the Exercise Amount being for the benefit of the Holder.
2.4 Stock Certificates; Fractional Shares. As soon as practicable on or after any date of exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall issue and deliver to the person or persons entitled to receive the same a certificate or certificates for the number of whole Common Shares issuable upon such exercise, together with cash in lieu of any fraction of a share equal to such fraction of the current Fair Market
2
Value of one whole Common Share as of the date of exercise of this Warrant. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon an exercise of this Warrant.
2.5. HSR Act. The Company hereby acknowledges that exercise of this Warrant by Holder may subject the Company and/or the Holder to the filing requirements of the HSR Act and that Holder may be prevented from exercising this Warrant until the expiration or early termination of all waiting periods imposed by the HSR Act ("HSR Act Restrictions"). If on or before the Expiration Date Holder has sent the Notice of Exercise to Company and Holder has not been able to complete the exercise of this Warrant prior to the Expiration Date because of HSR Act Restrictions, the Holder shall be entitled to complete the process of exercising this Warrant in accordance with the procedures contained herein notwithstanding the fact that completion of the exercise of this Warrant would take place after the Expiration Date.
2.6. Partial Exercise; Effective Date of Exercise. In case of any partial exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall cancel this Warrant upon surrender hereof and shall execute and deliver a new Warrant of like tenor and date for the balance of the Common Shares purchasable hereunder. This Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised immediately prior to the close of business on the date of its surrender for exercise as provided above. However, if Holder is subject to HSR Act filing requirements this Warrant shall be deemed to have been exercised on the date immediately following the date of the expiration of all HSR Act Restrictions. The person entitled to receive the Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be treated for all purposes as the holder of record of such shares as of the close of business on the date the Holder is deemed to have exercised this Warrant.
3. VALID ISSUANCE: TAXES. All Common Shares issued upon the exercise of this Warrant shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, and the Company shall pay all taxes and other governmental charges that may be imposed in respect of the issue or delivery thereof. The Company shall not be required to pay any tax or other charge imposed in connection with any transfer involved in the issuance of any certificate for Common Shares in any name other than that of the Registered Holder of this Warrant, and in such case the Company shall not be required to issue or deliver any stock certificate or security until such tax or other charge has been paid, or it has been established to the Company's reasonable satisfaction that no tax or other charge is due.
4. ADJUSTMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE AND NUMBER OF SHARES. The number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any shares of stock or other securities or property receivable or issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) and the Purchase Price are subject to adjustment upon occurrence of the following events:
4.1. Adjustment for Stock Splits, Stock Dividends, Stock Subdivisions or Combinations of Shares. The Purchase Price of this Warrant shall be proportionally decreased and the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be proportionally increased to reflect any stock split, stock dividend, or subdivision of the Company's Common Shares. The Purchase Price of this Warrant shall be proportionally increased and the number of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant (or any shares of stock or other securities at the time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant) shall be proportionally decreased to reflect any combination of the Company's Common Shares.
4.2. Reclassification. If the Company, by reclassification of securities or otherwise, shall change any of the securities as to which purchase rights under this Warrant exist into the same or a different number of securities of any other class or classes, this Warrant shall thereafter represent the right to acquire such number and kind of securities as would have been issuable as the result of such change with respect to the securities that were subject to the purchase rights under this Warrant immediately prior to such reclassification or other change and the Purchase Price therefore shall be appropriately adjusted, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 4.
3
4.3. Adjustment for Capital Reorganization, Merger or Consolidation. In case of any capital reorganization of the capital stock of the Company (other than a combination, reclassification, exchange or subdivision of shares otherwise provided for herein), or any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all the assets of the Company then, and in each such case, as a part of such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, lawful provision shall be made so that the Holder of this Warrant shall thereafter be entitled to receive upon exercise of this Warrant, during the period specified herein and upon payment of the Purchase Price then in effect, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the successor corporation resulting from such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer that a holder of the shares deliverable upon exercise of this Warrant would have been entitled to receive in such reorganization, consolidation, merger, sale or transfer if this Warrant had been exercised immediately before such reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or transfer, all subject to further adjustment as provided in this Section 4. The foregoing provisions of this Section 4.3 shall similarly apply to successive reorganizations, consolidations, mergers, sales and transfers and to the stock or securities of any other corporation that are at the time receivable upon the exercise of this Warrant. If the per-share consideration payable to the Holder hereof for shares in connection with any such transaction is in a form other than cash or marketable securities, then the value of such consideration shall be determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors. In all events, appropriate adjustment (as determined in good faith by the Company's Board of Directors) shall be made in the application of the provisions of this Warrant with respect to the rights and interests of the Holder after the transaction, to the end that the provisions of this Warrant shall be applicable after that event, as near as reasonably may be, in relation to any shares or other property deliverable after that event upon exercise of this Warrant.
5. NOTICE AS TO ADJUSTMENTS. In each case of any adjustment in the Purchase Price, or number or type of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant, the Company shall compute such adjustment in accordance with the terms of this Warrant and prepare a notice setting forth such adjustment, including a statement of the adjusted Purchase Price. The Company shall promptly send (by facsimile and by either first class mail, postage prepaid or overnight delivery) a copy of each such notice to the Holder.
6. LOSS OR MUTILATION. Upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to the Company of the ownership of and the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant, and of indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and (in the case of mutilation) upon surrender and cancellation of this Warrant, the Company will execute and deliver in lieu thereof a new Warrant of like tenor as the lost, stolen, destroyed or mutilated Warrant.
7. RESERVATION OF COMMON SHARES. The Company hereby covenants that at all times there shall be reserved for issuance and delivery upon exercise of this Warrant such number of Common Shares or other shares of capital stock of the Company as are from time to time issuable upon exercise of this Warrant and, from time to time, will take all steps necessary to amend its Memorandum and Articles of Association to provide sufficient reserves of Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. All such shares shall be duly authorized, and when issued upon such exercise, shall be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, free and clear of all liens, security interests, charges and other encumbrances or restrictions on sale and free and clear of all preemptive rights, except encumbrances or restrictions arising under federal or state securities laws. Issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to the Company's officers who are charged with the duty of executing stock certificates to execute and issue the necessary certificates for Common Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant.
8. TRANSFER AND EXCHANGE. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Warrant and compliance with all applicable securities laws, this Warrant and all rights hereunder may be transferred to any Registered Holder's parent, subsidiary or affiliate or their respective partners or members, in whole or in part, on the books of the Company maintained for such purpose at the principal office of
4
the Company referred to above, by the Registered Holder hereof in person, or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Warrant properly endorsed and upon payment of any necessary transfer tax or other governmental charge imposed upon such transfer. Upon any permitted partial transfer, the Company will issue and deliver to the Registered Holder a new Warrant or Warrants with respect to the Common Shares not so transferred. Each taker and holder of this Warrant, by taking or holding the same, consents and agrees that when this Warrant shall have been so endorsed, the person in possession of this Warrant may be treated by the Company, and all other persons dealing with this Warrant, as the absolute owner hereof for any purpose and as the person entitled to exercise the rights represented hereby, any notice to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however that until a transfer of this Warrant is duly registered on the books of the Company, the Company may treat the Registered Holder hereof as the owner for all purposes.
9. RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER. The Holder, by acceptance hereof, agrees that, absent an effective registration statement filed with the SEC under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933 Act"), covering the disposition or sale of this Warrant or the Common Shares issued or issuable upon exercise hereof, and registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, such Holder will not sell, transfer, pledge, or hypothecate any or all such Warrants or Common Shares, as the case may be, unless either (i) the Company has received an opinion of counsel, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company, to the effect that such registration is not required in connection with such disposition or (ii) the sale of such securities is made pursuant to SEC Rule 144.
10. COMPLIANCE WITH SECURITIES LAWS. By acceptance of this Warrant, the holder hereby represents, warrants and covenants that any shares of stock purchased upon exercise of this Warrant or acquired upon conversion thereof shall be acquired for investment only and not with a view to, or for sale in connection with, any distribution thereof; that the Holder has had such opportunity as such Holder has deemed adequate to obtain from representatives of the Company such information as is necessary to permit the Holder to evaluate the merits and risks of its investment in the Company; that the Holder is able to bear the economic risk of holding such shares as may be acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant for an indefinite period; that the Holder understands that the shares of stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of this Warrant or acquired upon conversion thereof will not be registered under the 1933 Act and will be "restricted securities" within the meaning of Rule 144 under the 1933 Act (unless otherwise required pursuant to exercise by the Holder of registration rights, if any, previously granted to such Holder) and that the exemption from registration under Rule 144 will not be available for at least one year from the date of exercise of this Warrant, subject to any special treatment by the SEC for exercise of this Warrant pursuant to Section 2.2, and even then will not be available unless a public market then exists for the stock, adequate information concerning the Company is then available to the public, and other terms and conditions of Rule 144 are complied with; and that all stock certificates representing shares of stock issued to the Holder upon exercise of this Warrant or upon conversion of such shares may have affixed thereto a legend substantially in the following form:
THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "ACT"), OR UNDER THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE. THESE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY AND RESALE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED OR RESOLD EXCEPT AS PERMITTED UNDER THE ACT AND THE APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, PURSUANT TO REGISTRATION OR EXEMPTION THEREFROM. INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THEY MAY BE REQUIRED TO BEAR THE FINANCIAL RISKS OF THIS INVESTMENT FOR AN INDEFINITE PERIOD OF TIME. THE ISSUER OF THESE SECURITIES MAY REQUIRE AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN FORM AND SUBSTANCE SATISFACTORY TO THE ISSUER TO THE EFFECT THAT ANY PROPOSED TRANSFER OR RESALE
5
IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
11. NO RIGHTS OR LIABILITIES AS SHAREHOLDERS. This Warrant shall not entitle the Holder to any voting rights or other rights as a shareholder of the Company. In the absence of affirmative action by such Holder to purchase Common Shares by exercise of this Warrant, no provisions of this Warrant, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder hereof shall cause such Holder hereof to be a shareholder of the Company for any purpose.
12. REGISTRATION RIGHTS. All Common Shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be "Restricted Shares" for purposes of Section 2 of the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of July 31, 2002, between the Company and certain of its shareholders, and shall be entitled, subject to the terms and conditions of that agreement, to all registration rights granted to holders of Restricted Shares pursuant to Section 2 of that agreement.
