Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. Announces
Initial Results of Tender Offer and Consent Solicitation of 8.25% Senior Notes due 2018
Tarrytown, NY, December 17, 2013- Prestige Brands Holdings,
Inc. (NYSE: PBH) (the "Company") announced today that its wholly owned subsidiary, Prestige Brands, Inc. ("Prestige
Brands"), has received, pursuant to its previously announced cash tender offer and consent solicitation with respect to any
and all of its outstanding $250,000,000 aggregate principal amount of 8.25% Senior Notes due 2018 (the "Notes"), the
requisite consents to adopt proposed amendments to the indenture under which the Notes were issued, that would, among other things,
eliminate substantially all of the restrictive covenants, certain events of default and certain related provisions contained in
the indenture (the "Amendments"). In addition, the Amendments have the effect of automatically releasing the liens
on the collateral that secures Prestige Brands' obligation that the 2018 Notes be secured on an equal and ratable basis with
the obligations under Prestige Brands' existing credit agreement.
As reported by the depositary, tenders and corresponding consents
have been delivered with respect to $201,710,000 aggregate principal amount of the Notes (representing 80.68% of the outstanding
aggregate principal amount of the Notes), which Notes had been validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of 5:00 p.m., New
York City time, on December 16, 2013 (the "Consent Payment Deadline"). As a result, the requisite consents have been
obtained with respect to all of the Amendments.
In conjunction with receiving the requisite consents, Prestige
Brands, the Company, the other guarantors party thereto, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, executed a second supplemental
indenture with respect to the indenture governing the Notes effecting certain amendments that would implement the Amendments. The
second supplemental indenture became operative upon acceptance of the Notes for purchase by the Issuer pursuant to the terms and
conditions described in the Statement (as defined below).
The tender offer and consent solicitation are being made upon
the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the related Offer to Purchase and Consent Solicitation Statement dated December 3,
2013 (the "Statement"). Holders who validly tendered their Notes and delivered their consents on or prior to the Consent
Payment Deadline are eligible to receive the applicable Total Consideration (as defined below). A holder's right to validly
withdraw tendered Notes and validly revoke delivered consents expired on the Consent Payment Deadline.
The Issuer's obligation to accept for purchase and to
pay for Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn and consents validly delivered, and not validly revoked, pursuant to the
tender offer and consent solicitation, was subject to and conditioned upon the satisfaction of or, where applicable, the Issuer's
waiver of, certain conditions, including a financing condition. As of December 17, 2013 these conditions have been satisfied and
the Notes validly tendered and not validly withdrawn as of the Consent Payment Deadline were accepted for purchase by the Issuer.
Holders who validly tendered (and did not validly withdraw)
their Notes on or prior to the Consent Payment Deadline received total consideration equal to $1,063.30 per $1,000 principal amount
of the Notes (the "Total Consideration"), plus any accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes up to, but not including,
the first settlement date. The Total Consideration includes a consent payment of $30.00 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes
(the "Consent Payment").
Holders who validly tender their Notes after the Consent Payment
Deadline, but on or prior to Midnight, New York City time, on December 31, 2013, unless extended or earlier terminated by
the Issuer (the "Expiration Time"), and whose Notes are accepted for payment, will receive the tender consideration
equal to $1,030.30 per $1,000 principal amount of the Notes (the "Tender Consideration"), plus any accrued and unpaid
interest on the Notes up to, but not including, the final settlement date. Holders of Notes who tender after the Consent Payment
Deadline will not receive a Consent Payment.
Any Notes not tendered and purchased pursuant to the tender
offer will remain outstanding and the holders thereof will be bound by the amendments contained in the second supplemental indenture
eliminating substantially all restrictive covenants, certain events of default and certain related provisions contained in the
indenture and provide for the release of the liens on the collateral that secures the Issuer's and the Company's obligations
with respect to the Notes even though they have not consented to the amendments.
