WESTLAKE VILLAGE, CALIFORNIA — October 21, 2013 — Dole Food Company, Inc. (“Dole”) announced today that it is initiating an offering, subject to market and other conditions, of $275,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its Senior Secured Notes due 2019 (the “Notes”). Dole intends to use the net proceeds from the offering to finance a portion of the consideration for the proposed merger with DFC Merger Corp., a Delaware corporation, and refinance Dole’s existing amended and restated credit agreement, dated as of May 2, 2013, among Dole, Solvest, Ltd., Deutsche Bank AG New York Branch, as administrative agent, and the other parties thereto.

The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.
This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the Notes or any other securities, and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful.
