HERBALIFE LTD. TERMINATES GOLDMAN SACHS ENGAGEMENT IN CONNECTION WITH SPECIAL COMMITTEE
The Company Authorizes Stock Repurchase Program and Initiation of a Regular Cash Dividend Program

LOS ANGELES, April 18, 2007 — Herbalife Ltd. (NYSE: HLF) today announced the company formally terminated the advisory services of Goldman Sachs which had been engaged to advise the Special Committee of the Board related to the unsolicited Whitney V offer to purchase all of the outstanding shares of the company at $38 per share.

The company also announced that its board of directors has authorized a program for the company to repurchase up to $300 million of Herbalife common stock during the next two years, at such times and prices as determined by company management, as market conditions may warrant.

Additionally, the company’s board of directors adopted a regular quarterly cash dividend program. As part of this program, the company announced a $0.20 per share cash dividend, for the first quarter 2007, payable on May 15, 2007 to shareholders of record on April 30, 2007.

Michael O. Johnson, the company’s chief executive officer said, “We have a unique Distributor-driven business model that generates significant free cash flow and is not fully appreciated by the investment community. The actions of the board reinforce our belief that our shares are undervalued at current prices and that we can use excess cash to accelerate returns to investors.”
