Dear Team Herbalife,

It’s the time of year to ring out the old, and ring in the new.

Look at 2009 – we’re now in 72 countries. We enhanced our already proven Marketing Plan to bring financial rewards to more of our Independent Distributors. We have our own U.S. manufacturing facility, which is part of our commitment to providing the highest standards in quality control and the very best science-based nutrition products.

This year, in each issue of Today magazine, we’ll reflect on Herbalife’s three decades, culminating in our vision for the next 10 years. This issue focuses on our first decade in business – the 1980s. It was a time of dreaming for the future, creating a foundation for success and overcoming early challenges.

Now, looking ahead – our 30th anniversary year will be incredible. In February, our annual Mark Hughes Day honors two legacies from Mark: Herbalife and the Herbalife Family Foundation. Then it’s on to our 30th Anniversary Leadership Summit in March, where we will launch our Herbalife Decade and unveil success strategies for Herbalife’s future. And finally, we’ll celebrate at the long-awaited 30th Anniversary Vacation on beautiful Paradise Island in the Bahamas.

Mark perfectly summed things up when he said, “We have our whole future ahead of us, and we’re just getting started.”

Let’s make 2010 the beginning of a decade to remember.

Dear Today,

In Issue #144, we read the story “Herbalife Honors,” how at last year’s event Herbalife paid out over $36 million in bonuses – with the top bonus awarded to Chairman’s Club member Raquel Cortés. Raquel now holds the record for receiving the highest Production Bonus in Herbalife history. Wow! If that doesn’t inspire people, nothing will. That’s why we believe Today magazine is required reading for people who are serious about making Herbalife their future.

Matt & Amanda Grimm Global Expansion Team

Dear Today,

I look forward to every issue of Today magazine, but I also keep on top of new developments by logging on to MyHerbalife.com. One of the things I do, which I also recommend to new Distributors, is go to the website’s “Success Stories” section. The “Print This Page” feature makes it so easy to share these product result stories with prospects. Distributors can also email the link to a webpage. It’s a great way to use Herbalife marketing materials to further their business.

Paula PecorellaMillionaire Team

Dear Today,

Since my wife Sandra and I became Herbalife Independent Distributors nearly 12 years ago, Today magazine has helped us realize we’re connected to something bigger than ourselves. I can’t think of another organization that gives people from all walks of life so many great opportunities, and this magazine tells that story. There’s a saying, “Success leaves clues.” And I find those clues in your “Recognition” section. It’s where I go, and where I recommend my friends new to Herbalife go, to see what’s possible to achieve with Herbalife. Plus who wouldn’t find it rewarding to see their name, then their picture and ultimately their own story, in print? Keep printing, and I’ll keep reading.

Maurice SmithExecutive President’s Team

Dear Today,

In your latest issue of Today, the article on the Million Pound Mission [“Big Losers Become Big Winners”] brought up emotional memories. My Aunt Derinda always had trouble with obesity. In fact, she had gastric bypass surgery three times. During her third operation, I got a call to immediately go to the hospital. There, my aunt told me the doctors found cancer during her surgery. But she also told me how proud she was of me because I’d lost 100 pounds with Herbalife.* And then she had me make a promise – a promise to help other people lose weight and keep it off. Aunt Derinda died the next day, but my memory of her and the promise I made lives on.

Set proper weight-loss goals in the beginning, and you’re more likely to achieve them. Focus on the process, keep a record and review your progress. Unrealistic or aggressive goals, like losing 12 pounds a week or fitting into your high school jeans, can do more harm than good. By exercising regularly, maintaining a healthy diet and taking targeted nutrition supplements, you’ll be more likely to achieve the results you’re after. Visit MyHerbalfe.com, and get inspired by success stories from people who’ve met their weight-loss goals.

Extravaganza, Atlanta 2009

On February 1, 2010, we celebrate Mark Hughes Day around the world. This year we also celebrate three decades of helping people lead healthy, active lives through good nutrition, as well as offering our proven business opportunity to those seeking financial freedom. Through the Herbalife Family Foundation (HFF) and its Casa Herbalife programs, we have the opportunity to help nonprofit organizations meet the nutrition needs of at-risk children on six continents. Following Mark’s dreams and determination, we can all build a better world for ourselves, our families and our communities.

Mark worked tirelessly on behalf of our Independent Distributors, holding meetings

around his own kitchen table, traveling around the world to train people on the business

opportunity and speaking to others about good nutrition on behalf of Herbalife. A major

part of Mark’s vision involved helping people change their lives – and he believed that

as Distributors, making a difference in your community and giving back is just as

important. At Herbalife, one of our core values remains making our communities

better places to live and work. We’d like to encourage you to reach out to your own

communities all year long and find ways to make a positive impact on the lives of

others. Motivate members of your organization to come up with ways to make a

difference where they live and work. If each of us, all around the world, does one thing

to make a change, imagine what we can accomplish as one big Herbalife family. In

honor of this special day, and to help inspire you and others to celebrate Mark’s legacy

of giving, we’ve created the Mark Hughes Channel in the HBN “Video Library” section

of MyHerbalife.com. Tune in during the entire month of February to watch a wide range

of special programming. And remember to make 2010 special by commemorating this

Mark Hughes Day throughout the entire year.

Celebrating

“You’ve made Herbalife into

a force of goodwill.”

– Mark Hughes Herbalife’s Founder and

First Distributor, 1956-2000

Canada becomes our second market, and our international expansion hasn’t slowed down since. Lose Weight Now, Ask Me How® buttons will eventually become a global phenomenon.

About 20 years before the general public starts talking about the benefits of Omega-3s, Herbalifeline® is introduced. Our global expansion goes “down under” as we open in the Australian market.

Herbalife’s own network (first called HCN) broadcasts its first satellite program and airs its first infomercial, which introduces Kindermins®. While our message of good nutrition travels to the U.K. market, a new Herbalife sign goes up on our then-headquarters in Inglewood, California. For 22 years, it will be seen by millions of people as they fly into Los Angeles or travel on one of L.A.’s busiest freeways.

Mark Hughes begins his journey aimed at changing people’s lives by providing healthy nutrition and the best business opportunity in direct selling. Our first product, Formula 1, launches and remains one of our Core Products 30 years later. Formula 2 and NRG are also introduced. Initially selling products from the trunk of his car, Mark opens an office in Beverly Hills. Many of the first Distributors in the ‘80s remain active players in our Distributor leadership today.

Herbalife’s first decade: the 1980s

The Dream BeginsFrom the introduction of our Core Products, which are still in demand today, to retail sales as high as $426 million within our first five years, Herbalife Independent Distributors continue changing people’s lives, one person at a time.

Knowing the importance of taking care of the body both inside and out, Mark launches Outer Nutrition – skincare and hair care products. Meanwhile, Production Bonuses are introduced to the Marketing Plan, providing Distributors a means to even greater financial freedom.

Jim Rohn teams up with Herbalife in a relationship that blossoms over the next two decades, as he inspires and motivates millions of Herbalife Independent Distributors around the world. We go public, trading on the NASDAQ for the next 5-plus years. It will be another 10 years

before the Founder’s Circle is created; meanwhile, the number of Independent Distributors continues to grow, and we’re on track to change the lives of millions of people around the world.

New Zealand becomes our fifth market. Who could imagine that 20 years later Herbalife’s retail sales will reach its highest ever at $3.8 billion?

Where would Nutrition Clubs be if Mexico hadn’t become our seventh market in 1989? Israel and Spain also open as our first decade comes to a close – a decade that saw unfaltering commitment by Mark and our Distributors as they took our company and its mission around the world, overcoming fear and doubt to prosper in ways that Mark may never have imagined.

Travel back in time again as we look at the 1990s in our

next issue of Today magazine.

The 1980s marked the beginning of an extraordinary journey, changing people’s lives through good nutrition and a business opportunity to help them achieve financial freedom.

Herbalife goes to Hollywood, with Mark appearing on “The Merv Griffin Show,” and Donny and Marie Osmond, as well as Milton Berle, entertaining at events. These stars are among the first of many top entertainers who will perform for our Distributors in coming years. Retail sales of $426 million are the highest of the decade. Distributors march on Washington, D.C., to support Mark as he speaks about the products and the company before the U.S. Senate.

AND YOU’RE IN FOR MANY REWARDS

So how do I qualify?To reach Supervisor, the Marketing Plan gives you three ways to qualify.

1) Achieve 4,000 Volume Points in one calendar month, with 1,000 of those being unencumbered. (Unencumbered volume is Personally Purchased Volume that is not be ing used by anyone in your downline for qual i f ication or requalification purposes.)

2) Achieve 2,500 Volume Points in two

alk to anyone who’s achieved Supervisor status, and they’ll tell you it’s critical to realizing your financial goals and moving

up the Marketing Plan. Why? When you achieve Supervisor, you:

consecutive months, again with 1,000 unencumbered Volume Points.

3 ) Ac c u m u l a te 5 ,0 0 0 Pe r s o n a l l y Purchased Volume Points with in 12 volume months. This is a new way to qualify, and requires a minimum of three months to meet the requirements, giving you the chance to quali f y with every Herbalife order you place.

It’s also possible to qualify together with a Distributor(s) from your downline. If this is the case, talk to your Sponsor for help.

The Theory


FOR MANY REWARDSIn order to achieve your goal, you’ll need to put a plan in place and put it into practice, taking all the

necessary steps to achieve it. So when designing your plan, consider this:

Time frame and agenda. By establishing when and how many hours you’ll work on the business, and marking these in a calendar, you’re more likely to get the results you want within the period of time you’ve set.

Create a list of prospects. Contact your family, friends and acquaintances. If you don’t feel comfortable doing this, ask yourself why. Once you know what’s stopping you, you can focus on the solution. In the “Retailing & Recruiting” section of MyHerbalife.com you’ll find many tools, such as postcards, e-cards and even scripts, that can help you reach out to prospects.

Are you using the products?Remember, you create your own success

story by using the products. This will give you all the motivation and confidence you need to talk about Herbalife. If you’re using the products daily, you’ll feel incredible and you should have no trouble reaching those Volume Points. Just replace the i tems you buy e lsewhere, such as supplements, shampoos, moisturizers and other products, with something similar or even better from Herbalife.

Get in on the training. When you’re starting your business, knowledge goes a long way; so contact your local support system, use the tools on MyHerbalife.com and your Supervisor pin will be on its way – along with all the rewards you’ll be able to enjoy!

she could dedicate to her business, and handed out invitations to the party. Then she contacted her Sponsor, Edia, who gave her advice. Edia suggested Netty use the Training Video Library, as well as resources in the “Retailing & Recruiting” section and other tools – all located on MyHerbalife.com. And finally, at her shake party, Netty gave a great presentation. Her whole family felt her enthusiasm, and each member ordered something.

MARY ELIZABETH FUSCO, stood in the emergency room of her local hospital. As the doctor held up an X-ray, Mary saw where her daughter Katie had broken her hand. Twice in

one month Mary found herself looking at an X-ray of one of her daughters. “How could two of my girls both get broken bones?” Mary asked herself. “What did I do to deserve this?” Before Katie’s injury, Mary’s youngest daughter Brooke shattered both her heels and broke an ankle. Always looking for the good in a bad situation, Mary thought half-jokingly, “This family needs more calcium.” And then with typical resilience, Mary worked

her Distributorship without a hint of slowing down, making each and every training call – some from home and some from the hospital.

Six years earlier, Mary and her husband had divorced. But she had a Plan-B: find another guy to take care of her. But after a year, Mary realized she needed a real plan, not some pie-in-the-sky dream. No one was going to rescue her. She’d have to change her attitude, take action and make enough money to care of herself and her four daughters.

Life-Defining

PEOPLE WHO HAD MAJOR SETBACKS OR OTHER DIFFICULTIES AFTER BECOMING Herbalife Independent Distributors found they could still achieve success. The experiences these Distributors went through now define the way they approach their Herbalife business and their life. What they all have in common is not only self-confidence, desire and their own supply of strength, but also the support they received from people throughout the Herbalife organization.

Herbalife is a company that empowers people to do great things, no matter what obstacles fall in their path.

“It’s funny what life puts in front of you,” says Mary, “because around that same time, my friend Carry lost a lot of weight, so I asked her how she did it. I’d heard of Herbalife, but never really knew much about it.” With the help of the products, Mary dropped 20 pounds, which led her to become an Herbalife Independent Distributor. She told people her story and helped them reach their health goals through the products. Mary not only discovered a new Plan-B, she thrived on it.

After becoming a Supervisor, she moved up the Marketing Plan thanks to her commitment and effort. Helping other women on her team succeed financially made Mary proud of herself and her downline. As time went on, her team increased in size and she motivated them with her “can-do attitude.” Her Distributors witnessed how she maintained a positive spirit in spite of adversity. Making Global Expansion Team (GET) in just 10 months, as Mary did, takes commitment. Making it when things are crashing all around takes faith.

Mary had to do all she could to keep her can-do attitude alive. It was between her daughters’ emergency room visits that she found her home flooded, things destroyed and the carpet ruined. “Seeing me reach GET during such a crazy time turned out to be a wonderful lesson for my girls,” explains Mary. “They saw that when you set clear goals and work hard to accomplish them, nothing can stand in your way!” With three of her daughters now Distributors and her business booming, Mary proves you can achieve anything with Herbalife.*†

THE LIGHT TURNED RED, and Jenny Davis stopped the car. In the backseat was her 87-year-old father. They were on their way home from a visit with his doctor. As the light remained red,

she reminisced about all the wonderful moments she’d shared with her dad – the birthdays, family occasions and all the times her dad was there in times of need.

Although it’s never easy to take care of one’s aging parents, Jenny took comfort in knowing that her decision to become a Herbalife Independent Distributor now gave her the opportunity to be there for her dad in his time of need.

The light turned green. Jenny eased on the gas and spoke to her father: “Hey, Dad, how are you feeling?” “I’m OK,” he replied. “Well, we’ll be home soon,” she assured him. “We just have one stop to make.”

Jenny took a right turn onto a side street and pulled over in front of a house. Jenny turned to her father and said, “I’ll just be a minute. I’m only going to the front door.” Jenny got out of the car with a box. She turned back to look at her father, smiled and waved. Jenny knocked on the door. A woman came out, Jenny handed the box of Herbalife® products to her customer, chatted briefly and then ran back to the car. “We’re going home now, Dad,” Jenny said. “How about meatloaf for lunch?” Jenny put the car in gear and smiled to herself. Knowing she could look after her father and take care of a customer made her happy.

Jenny cared for father until he passed away at age 90, and today she looks after her 91-year-old mom. Herbalife gave Jenny the opportunity run a business while staying involved with her entire family. It also gave her the financial freedom to afford private school for Bethany and to travel the world. Bethany has since grown up and has three kids of her own. Now Jenny looks after her grandchildren three days a week. “It’s time I wouldn’t trade for anything,” says Jenny. “Looking after my elderly parents while managing my Herbalife business hasn’t always been easy, but imagine if I was working for someone else? I’d never have the chance to have it all.” Achieving President’s Team, Jenny demonstrates what you can achieve with Herbalife.*

ON AUGUST 24, 1997, the ballroom at the Scanticon Conference Center in Princeton, New Jersey, was filled to capacity: nearly 500 people celebrating completion of their Success

Training Seminar (STS).

Suddenly someone tapped Paul Osimo on the shoulder – it was his friend Michelle. “Would you come with me?” she asked. Paul followed her out of the ballroom; the doors shut behind them but the sound of the crowd and music spilled into the hallway. She told Paul that his wife Pat was on the phone and needed to speak with him. They entered an office where Paul took the call. He heard Pat’s voice on the other end: “I don’t know how to tell you this…but Danny’s dead.” Two days of elation from the STS drained from Paul’s body. “It can’t be…it just can’t be,” Paul told his wife. There was nothing more unimaginable than losing his 18-year-old son Daniel.

Michelle quietly drove Paul back home. As an Herbalife Independent Distributor, Michelle knew to treat people with respect. She also knew that sometimes support involves just letting them be – that you needn’t try to make them feel better, but just let them know you’re there.

Paul learned that Daniel had died of an allergic reaction. After the funeral, Paul wasn’t ready to jump back in and grow his Herbalife business. But he stayed connected with his Herbalife family, continued to receive royalty payments and took care of all the customers he had.

In the past, Paul’s business had given him the time to engage in charitable works through the Rotary Club. In fact, Paul had put his bachelor’s degree in biology and his master’s in international studies to use by taking part in the Rotary Club’s environmental mission to the Soviet Union to study the effects of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster. Paul was used to getting involved in things bigger than himself, and now, after the death of his son, he felt the need to do so more than ever.

Paul resumed his work with the Rotary Club, going on missions to Africa and Asia, where he saw how famine and disease took children away from their parents. The experience helped Paul put his own life in perspective.

Paul returned to the United States and became a partner in a nano technology business, hoping to fulfill a childhood dream of benefiting mankind through science. But two years later, their primary investor pulled out and the company filed for bankruptcy. No longer willing to depend on startups and venture capital groups, Paul was ready to be his own boss and get back into Herbalife full time.

He thought about meeting Mark Hughes years before, and how they considered one another kindred spirits. Paul had heard him speak of the difference Distributors can make in people’s lives with good nutrition and financial opportunity, and how Herbalife demonstrates that people of different cultures, religious backgrounds and nationalities can come together for a common purpose.

Today, Paul and his wife Pat are opening a Nutrition Club, and have achieved GET status. They’re now building their business, and their royalties are steadily growing. Ever since Paul was a child, he wanted to make a difference in people’s lives. Initially, he believed he would do so through scientific discovery. But instead, Paul is fulfilling that dream and many others through Herbalife.*

You can’t predict what obstacles may come your way. But you have choices, and success can come when you’re ready for it. Herbalife has given that same opportunity to hundreds of thousands of people like Mary, Jenny, Paul and you. As a Distributor, it’s up to you to make the most of it.

Before Tim Hendricks and Christal Hendricks met, he served as a U.S. Marine and she was a math teacher and basketball coach. They each started using Herbalife products and were impressed by their results. “I’d lost 40 pounds!” exclaims Tim. “It blew me away.” Christal discovered Herbalife when she wanted to look her best at her high school reunion. “A friend of mine had lost 40 pounds using the products,” she says, “so I tried them myself, and I lost 25. Needless to say, it was a great reunion!”

They began working together and, since then, have grown successful businesses. “Now I earn a fantastic income working the hours I choose,” says Tim. Christal adds, “Herbalife has taken me on an amazing journey through the years.”

According to both Tim and Christal, even more important than the money is the fact that they’re able to help people. “There’s no amount of money that can replace how that makes me feel,” says Tim. Today, each is now a proud member of the Executive President’s Team. “I’ve made lifelong friends through this business,” says Christal. Tim agrees: “They’re people who have become like family.”*†

“ Our thriving Herbalife business replaced our two corporate America incomes.”

Walking out of their favorite Vietnamese restaurant, Amber and Jason Wick ran into Craig, an acquaintance from their old job whom they hadn’t seen in years. They greeted one another, happy to meet again. Jason asked, “How are things at work?” Craig looked down at the ground as his smile faded. Quietly he told them about the last round of layoffs. Then his face brightened as he noticed something different about them. “You guys look great, he said. “What are you doing now?” “Herbalife!” the couple answered.

Craig wanted to know more: “I thought you two just went to another company. You’re no longer engineers?” “No,” Amber explained. “The work was so exhausting, and we had no time to be with each other.” “We were tired, stressed out and overworked,” added Jason.

“So, how did you get into it?” Craig asked. Amber told him, “A fr iend introduced us to Herbalife and we fell in love with the products.” Jason continued, “We couldn’t help but notice the opportunity in front of us.

We quit our old jobs, and it was the best decision we ever made.” Craig waved through the window at his family sitting inside the restaurant and then said goodbye to Amber and Jason. A warm wind blew them as Jason put his arm around Amber. They smiled at one another, contented, and went for a short walk before heading back to their car for the drive home.

Today, Amber and Jason Wick run an extremely successful business full time. They replaced their high-paying engineering incomes with something even better, and enjoy the time they now share.

What would they like other Distributors to know about how they achieved their success? “Our team’s spirit is very important,” says the couple. “We do things like rent buses to bring them to events. We also make T-shirts and hats for our team. But beyond that, we help them with their own business whenever we can. They know we’re looking out for them.”*

KATHLEEN CALDWELL

BROOK KIRWIN

Kathleen Caldwell’s retirement went down the drain after the recent stock market collapse. “My husband and I worked our entire lives, putting money into our retirement fund,” says Kathleen, who had worked for 20 years as an accountant at a large corporation.

Due to the economy, they found themselves unable to retire within seven or eight years as planned. Then Kathleen saw an Herbalife ad, ordered an International Business Pack and became a Distributor.

“Eventual ly, I was able to quit my old job and devote myself ful l t ime to my business,” says Kathleen. “Now I can see my grandchi ldren at school events, travel and sti l l work my business.”

From the first day she became a Supervisor to achiveing Mill ionaire Team, Kathleen has used the Business Methods consistently. “In the past several months, my business has really grown,” she explains. “I’m also a product of the products – they’ve helped me lose 30 pounds, and I’ve never felt better.”*†

“It’s another 10-hour bus ride. I’m riding with the football team on our way back home to Duluth, Minnesota. It’s the middle of the night, and outside is a blizzard. I signed up as a trainer because I thought it’d be a great way to help pay for school, and I enjoy helping athletes get in peak condition. But I had no idea how hard it would be. I have no time to work out myself. It’s crazy: I get college football players into outstanding physical shape but I’m exhausted and overweight, and now I realize this isn’t good for me. I’m on a bus filled with jocks; it’s 3 o’clock in the morning; and it’s freezing. I just hope the bus driver isn’t as tired as I am!

“A friend told me about Herbalife, and I couldn’t wait to try the products. A lot of players use energy drinks that contain a lot of sugar. But Herbalife products are different! I started using them. Since then, I’ve lost 40 pounds and gone from a size 14 to a 6.

“After two years as a Distributor, I earned more part time than I did as a trainer. At that point, I quit training college athletes to focus on moving up the Marketing Plan. Now I earn an amazing income. No more student loans! Two athletes I trained are now in my downline: a World Team member and a Supervisor. How cool is that!”*†

“ I can work from anywhere, see my grandchildren, travel and still work my business. It’s truly amazing.”

GARY & DAYNA SPURGEONAs Distributors for 29 years, Gary and Dayna met Mark Hughes many times. At an event, Gary recounted how a serious

ordeal in his life forced him to relearn how to talk and eat. Moved by his story, Mark met with them that day. “Our great sense of loyalty to Mark and Herbalife is the reason we help people achieve a healthier life and financial independence,” the couple say.*

FRANCIS LEROUX & SUZIE BUREAU“Each time my little son Julien asks me to play, I look at him and realize how lucky I am. But I won’t forget my life before

Herbalife. We didn’t earn enough, but now we live in a mountain dream house and have time to enjoy with our son. Words cannot convey our gratitude for the opportunity that has so incredibly improved our lives.”*

DANIEL & WENDY CALDWELLBefore they met and married, Wendy Caldwell worked three jobs to support her five children, while Dan felt frustrated

in his job. Determined to improve their lives, they went to an Herbalife training meeting, where they met. They now have financial freedom, a wonderful lifestyle and time to spend with their family.*

JEFFREY J. FIORELife as a professional rock musician left Jeffrey Fiore underweight and with low energy. A friend introduced him to Herbalife

products, and he experienced great results. “If these products helped me, they can help anyone,” Jeffrey says. Since then, he’s helped others achieve their goals. “I tell everyone about Herbalife,” he says, “and financial stability has been my reward.”*†

JEANETTE KLAUS-SEIFERTLiving her dream as a semi-pro speed skater, Jeanette Klaus-Seifert struggled financially. Her mother and grandmother,

both Herbalife Independent Distributors, had achieved Millionaire Team status, so she was certain Herbalife could work for her as well. She was right. “Because of Herbalife,” Jeanette says, “today I have a lifestyle that allows me to always be there for my two sons.”*

KATHLEEN GAY RIESTERERKathleen Gay Riesterer managed the office of a masonry business owned by her and her husband Richard. Then Kathleen saw

an Herbalife flyer that got her attention. She became an Independent Distributor, reached Active World Team status and earned the 1-Million Lifetime Achievement Award – all while still running the office of their masonry business.*
