GENOMMA LAB INTERNACIONAL TO NOMINATE SLATE OF FIVE INDEPENDENT DIRECTORS FOR ELECTION AT PRESTIGE BRANDS’
2012 ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
March 15, 2012— Genomma Lab Internacional, S.A.B. de C.V. (“Genomma”) (BMV: LAB.B.) today announced that it provided formal notice to Prestige Brands Holdings, Inc. (“Prestige”) (NYSE: PBH) of its intention to nominate a slate of five independent candidates for election to Prestige’s Board of Directors and present a proposal for shareholder action at Prestige’s 2012 annual meeting of shareholders.
“Though it remains our strong preference to enter into a negotiated transaction with Prestige, we are committed to pursuing a combination of our two companies. To reinforce that commitment, we have notified Prestige of our intention to nominate a full slate of directors at the upcoming annual meeting of Prestige shareholders. We believe our highly qualified nominees will exercise independent judgment in considering Genomma’s proposed transaction,” said Rodrigo Alonso Herrera Aspra, President and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Genomma Lab Internacional, S.A.B. de C.V. “We are confident that these nominees will serve in the best interests of Prestige and its shareholders.”
Genomma’s nominees are: (i) Yvonne Furth, 53, who served as President and COO of Rivet and President and CEO of Draft FCB before retiring from The Interpublic Group of Companies, Inc. in 2009; (ii) Harry A. Hamill, 58, who served in several senior finance positions at Wyeth Corporation before retiring in 2010; (iii) Matthew S. Kissner, 57, President and Chief Executive Officer of The Kissner Group who currently serves on the Board of Directors of John Wiley & Sons, Inc. and previously held senior operational and finance roles at Pitney Bowes; (iv) Edward Lowenthal, 67, who serves on several U.S. and international corporate Boards of Directors and has founded and run several real estate investment firms; and (v) J. Matthew Singleton, 59, who retired from CitationAir in 2011 and currently serves on the Board of Directors of Cubist Pharmaceuticals, Inc. He previously held senior operational and administrative positions at CIBC World Markets.
Genomma also intends to seek to repeal any new by-laws or amendments to Prestige’s By-Laws adopted by Prestige’s Board of Directors after September 2, 2009 (which is the date of the last publicly disclosed amendment to Prestige’s By-Laws) and prior to the adoption of this proposal by Prestige’s shareholders.
On February 21, 2012, Genomma announced its non-binding proposal to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Prestige common stock for US$16.60 per share in cash.
Genomma’s all-cash proposal represents a premium of 23% over Prestige’s closing stock price on February 17, 2012 and a 47% premium over the three month historical average of Prestige’s share price, as of February 17, 2012.
In response to Prestige’s press release issued on March 12, 2012 announcing the Prestige Board’s rejection of Genomma’s proposal, Genomma said it was disappointed with the Prestige Board’s response. Genomma remains committed to the proposed transaction and would welcome the opportunity to meet with representatives of Prestige to discuss Genomma’s compelling proposal.
BofA Merrill Lynch and Jefferies have been selected as financial advisors to Genomma, and Dewey & LeBoeuf LLP is acting as U.S. legal counsel. Nexxus Capital has been selected as financial advisor to Genomma in Mexico, and Forastieri Abogados, S.C. is acting as Mexican legal counsel.

Approvals and Conditions
The Board of Directors of Genomma approved the calling of a Genomma shareholder meeting in order to propose for consideration at that meeting, among other matters, approval of the proposed transaction and the obtaining of financing in order to have the resources necessary to carry out the proposed transaction, and if necessary, to refinance any Prestige Brands debt, in the event that it is declared due and payable in advance as a result of the proposed transaction.
The proposed transaction is subject to approval by the Genomma shareholders, in the terms established in Article 47 of the Mexican Securities Market Law, and the following conditions, and other conditions that are standard in this type of transaction, according to what will be established in the Offer to Purchase, as modified from time to time:
|
|
(1)
|
That in the Offer to Purchase, the Purchaser acquires a least a majority of the shares of Prestige Brands;
|
|
|
(2)
|
That the Board of Directors of Prestige Brands redeem the preferred share purchase rights or that such rights have been invalidated or are otherwise inapplicable to the Offer to Purchase and the Prestige Brands Merger;
|
|
|
(3)
|
That the Board of Directors of Prestige Brands approve the offer and the Prestige Brands Merger;
|
|
|
(4)
|

|
|
|

|
|
|
(6)
|

|
The Purchaser reserves the right (but is not obligated), subject to SEC rules and regulations, or any other applicable legal rule, to modify or revoke the various conditions mentioned before the termination of the proposed offer.
Consideration and Other Agreements
Genomma intends to offer the shareholders of Prestige Brands, subject to certain conditions, to pay as consideration for the sale of Shares, the amount of $16.60 per share, on the terms and subject to the conditions that will be set forth in the Offer to Purchase, as modified from time to time. Genomma reserves the right to change the price to be offered to shareholders of Prestige Brands.
Terms and Conditions of the Proposed Offer
On the terms and subject to the conditions to be set forth in the Offer to Purchase, the Purchaser will accept and pay for all validly tendered Shares during the period of the offer, including the termination date of the offer.
Subject to the laws and regulations of the SEC and any other statutory provisions applicable, the Purchaser reserves the right to increase the price of each Share to be payable in the offer and to make any other changes in terms and conditions of the proposed offer.
The Purchaser will pay for all Shares validly tendered and will not immediately withdrawn after the acceptance of the Shares for payment pursuant to the offering. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and subject to the laws and regulations of the SEC and any other statutory provisions applicable, and to the terms and conditions to be set forth in the Offer to Purchase, the Purchaser will reserve the right (but is not obliged to) (i) delay payment of all or part of the Shares, to comply with applicable law (and any such delay will be in compliance with the applicable regulations), (ii) to extend or terminate the offer and not accept payment or to pay any Shares that have not been validly delivered, and (iii) modify the offer, in each case, through a verbal or written notice of such delay, extension, termination or amendment to the depositary and to disclose a public announcement of such action in question.
During any extension of the proposed offer period, all Shares previously tendered and not withdrawn will remain subject to the proposed offer and to the right of the shareholders of Prestige Brands to withdraw Shares. Under the applicable regulations, the Purchaser shall pay the consideration proposed to be offered or return the Shares delivered immediately after the termination or withdrawal of the proposed offer.
Purpose of the Proposed Offer
The proposed offer is intended to give Genomma control of Prestige Brands and then to acquire all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of Prestige Brands through the merger of Prestige Brands with a subsidiary of Genomma.
As a result of the proposed offer, Genomma aims to increase its presence and coverage in the U.S. and increase its portfolio of pharmaceutical products sold without prescriptions and personal care.

GSK - correspond to the purchase of GSK brands, published by Prestige Brands on January 18, 2012, on Form 8-K submitted to the SEC. They are backdated to the acquisition as if it had been made since the
beginning of the first period presented. Figures released by Prestige Brands are denominated in dollars so they followed the procedure of conversion of NIF B-15.

The adjusted numbers in the pro forma consolidated income statements have been derived as follows:
PBH - correspond to the figures released by Prestige Brands for the years ended December 31 of each year. These public figures were prepared in accordance with GAAP and dollars. For purposes of its incorporation into the combined figures, the dollar figures were converted to pesos using the conversion methodology established in NIF B-15.
GSK - Annual sales for 2011 were published by Prestige Brands in the presentation of the acquisition of GSK brands, including on its website http://www.prestigebrands.com.
The published sales figures are denominated in dollars so they followed the procedure of conversion of NIF B-15.
There is no public reporting of costs and annual expenses for the year 2011 for GSK acquired brands, so to determine a pro forma result to be incorporated in this exercise, it will be determined using the operating profit margin of 40%, obtained in the published results for the year 2010.
The 2010 figures correspond to those published by Prestige Brands on January 18, 2012, on Form 8-K submitted to the SEC relating to the annual results of the acquired brands to GSK for the year 2010. Figures released by Prestige Brands are denominated in dollars so they followed the conversion procedure of NIF B-15.
The exchange rates used for conversion purposes were as follows

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS OF GENOMMA
Pro Forma Operation Results
The following explains the significant changes in the main areas of the pro forma income statement resulting from the proposed integration of the financial statements of Genomma and Prestige Brands for the years ending December 31, 2011 and 2010. The changes outlined below are the result of adding the historical figures of Genomma and Prestige Brands, without considering the result of the partnership that would have existed if the two businesses were combined.
Net sales
In 2011, net sales increased 92.9%, from $ 8.075 million Mexican Pesos to $ 15.582 million Mexican Pesos. This increase is part of 62.1% of sales of Prestige Brands and 30.8% on sales of the acquired brands to GSK.
Operating income
Genomma’s operating income margin for 2011 compared with the pro forma results, would have increased from 25.4% to 28.2%, mainly because Prestige Brands has a margin of 36.5%. GSK's brands have a margin of 40% according to publicly available information for 2010.
Comprehensive financing
Genomma’s comprehensive financing result on December 31, 2011 would increase from a profit of $ 16.9 million to an expense of $ 403.4 million due to the financial cost of Prestige Brands of $ 420.4 million.
Income Taxes
The effective rate of income tax would have increased under the legal rate for Prestige Brands and GSK is 35% while the legal rate for Genomma is 30%.
Pro Forma Financial Position, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Assets and liabilities
The main balance sheet items of Genomma that would be affected by reason of the proposed transaction on December 31, 2011 are as follows:
Current assets increase 21% due to an increase of 19% and 55% in accounts receivable and inventories, respectively.
Intangible assets at fair value would increase because of Prestige Brands. The amount by which it would increase can only be determined through a valuation of the assets of Prestige Brands.
Total liabilities increase by the amount of liabilities of Prestige Brands plus the amount of financing that Genomma obtains for the effects of the proposed transaction.
Liquidity
The following is a summary regarding the liquidity ratios of Genomma after the proposed transaction, to December 31, 2010 and 2011:
