To Brokers, Dealers, Commercial Banks, Trust Companies and Other Nominees:
Whereas Herbalife Nutrition Ltd., a Cayman Islands exempted company incorporated with limited liability (the Company, we, or us), is offering to purchase common shares, par value $0.0005 per share in the capital of the Company (the common shares), for an aggregate cash purchase price of up to $750 million and at a per share price not greater than $50.00 nor less than $44.75, net to the seller in cash, less any applicable tax withholding and without interest, upon the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, dated July 13, 2020 (the Offer to Purchase) and the related Letter of Transmittal (which together, as they may be amended and supplemented from time to time, constitute the Offer).
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, we will purchase common shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn for an aggregate Cash Purchase Price (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) of up to $750 million, constituting approximately 11.4% of the total number of outstanding common shares as of the close of trading on July 9, 2020 (assuming the Company acquires common shares pursuant to this Offer at the lowest possible Cash Purchase Price of $44.75 per share). The Cash Purchase Price will be the lowest price per share not greater than $50.00 nor less than $44.75 per share (in multiples of $0.25) at which shares have been properly tendered in the Offer that will enable us to purchase the maximum number of shares for an aggregate Cash Purchase Price of up to $750 million. If fewer than such number of shares as would enable us to purchase shares pursuant to the Offer for an aggregate Cash Purchase Price of up to $750 million of shares are properly tendered, we will select the lowest price that will allow us to purchase all the shares that are properly tendered. In accordance with the rules of the SEC, we may increase the number of shares accepted for payment in the Offer by no more than 2% of the outstanding shares without extending the Offer. See Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase.
Please furnish copies of the enclosed materials to those of your clients for whom you hold shares registered in your name or in the name of your nominee. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references to shares shall refer to the common shares and all references to shares properly tendered shall refer to common shares properly tendered and not properly withdrawn in the Offer.

3. | Form of letter that you may send to your clients for whose account you hold shares registered in your name or in the name of a nominee, with an Instruction Form provided for obtaining such clients instructions with regard to the Offer; and |

We urge you to contact your clients promptly. Please note that the Offer, proration period and withdrawal rights will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on August 11, 2020, unless the offer is extended.
Under no circumstances will we pay interest on the Cash Purchase Price of the shares, including but not limited to, by reason of any extension of, or amendment to the Offer or any delay in making payment. In addition, if certain events occur, we may not be obligated to purchase shares pursuant to the Offer. See Section 7 of the Offer to Purchase.
