9. No Special Employment Rights. Nothing contained in this Agreement will be construed or deemed by any person under any circumstances to bind the Company or any of its Subsidiaries to continue the employment of the Employee for the period within which this Option may vest or for any other period.

10. Rights as a Shareholder. The Employee will have no rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares which may be purchased upon the exercise of this Option unless and until a certificate or certificates representing such Shares are duly issued and delivered to the Employee. If at any time during the term of the Option, the Company is advised by its counsel that the Shares are required to be registered under the Securities Act or under applicable state securities laws, or that delivery of the Shares must be accompanied or preceded by a prospectus meeting the requirements of such laws, delivery of Shares by the Company may be deferred until a registration is effective or a prospectus is available or an appropriate exemption from registration is secured.

11. Withholding Taxes. The Employee hereby agrees, as a condition to any exercise of the Option, to provide to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy its obligation to withhold certain federal, state and local taxes arising by reason of such exercise (the “Withholding Amount”), if any, by (a) authorizing the Company to withhold the Withholding Amount from the Employee’s cash compensation, or (b) remitting the Withholding Amount to the Company in cash; provided that, to the extent that the Withholding Amount is not provided

by one or a combination of such methods, the Company may at its election withhold from the Shares delivered upon exercise of the Option that number of Shares having a Fair Market Value as of the date immediately prior to the issuance of such Shares equal to the Withholding Amount.

12. Execution of Shareholders’ Agreement and of Release and Waiver of Rights. The Employee acknowledges that, in connection with his or her prior or future purchase of Shares of the Company, he or she will execute and deliver the Shareholders’ Agreement or a joinder or counterpart signature page thereto. The Employee further agrees that all Shares acquired by such Employee upon exercise of the Option will be subject to the terms and conditions of the Shareholders’ Agreement as modified hereby. Prior to participation in the Plan, if the Committee requires, the Employee will execute a Release and Waiver to Rights to payments and benefits under certain plans of Herbalife International, Inc.

13. Lock-Up Agreements. The Employee agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event of an Initial Public Offering or any other offering of securities of the Company, except to the extent that: (a) the Employee sells his or her Shares obtained upon the exercise of the Option to the underwriters of the Company’s securities in connection with such offering or (b) the underwriters do not request the following restrictions, such Employee shall not (i) offer, hedge, pledge, sell or contract to sell any such Shares, (ii) sell any option or contract to purchase any Shares, (iii) purchase any option or contract to sell any Shares, (iv) grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of any Shares, or (v) lend or otherwise dispose of or transfer any Shares during the longer of (A) any black-out period requested by the underwriters conducting any such offering of securities on behalf of the Company and (B) during the seven days prior to and during the 180-day period beginning on the effective date of such Initial Public Offering or other offering of securities; provided, however, that such Employee shall, in any event, be entitled to sell his or her Shares commencing on the expiration of the black-out period described in the aforementioned clause (A) or (B).
