This Amendment No. 2 to Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (this “Amendment”) further amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed on February 27, 2007, and amended on March 14, 2007 (the “Schedule TO”),  by WFMI Merger Co., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”), and Whole Foods Market, Inc., a Texas corporation (“WFM”).  This Amendment is being filed on behalf of WFM and Purchaser.

The Schedule TO relates to the offer by Purchaser to purchase all outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (including the associated preferred stock purchase rights, “Shares”), of Wild Oats Markets, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Wild Oats”), at a price of $18.50 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and less any required withholding taxes, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase dated February 27, 2007 (the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the “Offer”), which are annexed to and filed with the Schedule TO as Exhibits (a)(1)(A) and (a)(1)(B), respectively.

The Expiration Date of the Offer has been extended to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Tuesday, April 24, 2007. The full text of the press release issued by Parent on March 21, 2007 announcing the extension of the Expiration Date is filed herewith as Exhibit (a)(5)(C). All references in the Offer to Purchase, the Letter of Transmittal, the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, the Letter to Brokers, Dealers, Commercial Banks, Trust Companies and Other Nominees, and the Letter to Clients for use by Brokers, Dealers, Commercial Banks, Trust Companies and Other Nominees, to the Expiration Date of 12:00 midnight, New York City time, on March 27, 2007, are hereby amended and restated to refer to the Expiration Date of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Tuesday, April 24, 2007. Stockholders are NOT required to submit a new Letter of Transmittal to tender their Shares.

The information in the Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal is incorporated in this Amendment by reference to all of the applicable items in the Schedule TO, except that such information is hereby amended and supplemented to the extent specifically provided herein.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Offer to Purchase.

Items 1 through 9 and 11.

Items 1 through 9 and 11 of the Schedule TO, each of which incorporate by reference information contained in the Offer to Purchase, are hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On March 13, 2007, WFM and Wild Oats received a second request for additional information from the Federal Trade Commission (the “FTC”) in connection with the Offer to Purchase.  The effect of the second request is to extend the waiting period imposed by the HSR Act until 10 days after WFM has substantially complied with the second request, unless that period is terminated sooner by the FTC.  As a result of the waiting period being extended, the condition to the Tender Offer requiring that the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act shall have expired or been terminated will not be fulfilled as of March 27, 2007, the original date on which the Tender Offer was to expire.  In accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser is extending the offering period of the Tender Offer until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Tuesday, April 24, 2007.

Item 12. Exhibits.

Item 12 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following exhibit:
