Item 8.01 Other Events.

On November 1, 2016, Lamb Weston Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) issued a press release (the “Press Release”) relating to the pricing of the previously announced offering by the Company and certain selling noteholders (“Selling Noteholders”) of a total of $833.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.625% senior notes due 2024 and a total of $833.0 million aggregate principal amount of its 4.875% senior notes due 2026 (collectively, the “Notes”) in a private offering that is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Notes will be guaranteed by certain of the Company’s material domestic subsidiaries. A copy of the Company’s press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of the issuance of the Notes being offered by it to partially fund a cash payment to ConAgra Foods, Inc. The Company will not receive any proceeds from the sale of the Notes by the Selling Noteholders.

This is not an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy any securities. The Notes and related guarantees are being offered only to qualified institutional buyers in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, and outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on the exemption from registration set forth in Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes and the related guarantees have not been registered under the Securities Act, or the securities laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold in the United States without registration or an applicable exemption from the Securities Act and applicable state securities or blue sky laws and foreign securities laws.
