AMENDMENT NO. 3 TO SCHEDULE TO
This Amendment No. 3 (“Amendment No. 3”) amends and supplements the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO (as may be further supplemented or amended from time to time, the “Schedule TO”) originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on September 19, 2016 relating to an offer (the “Exchange Offer”) by Navios Maritime Holdings Inc., a Republic of Marshall Islands corporation (the “Company”), to acquire any and all outstanding American Depositary Shares (“Series G ADSs”), each representing 1/100 th  of a share of 8.75% Series G Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series G Preferred”) and any and all outstanding American Depositary Shares (“Series H ADSs”), each representing 1/100 th  of a share of 8.625% Series H Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series H Preferred” and, together with the Series G Preferred, the “Preferred Shares”) from all tendering holders of Series G ADSs and Series H ADSs, pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions described in the offer to exchange, dated September 19, 2016, as amended and supplemented by the supplement, dated September 29, 2016 (the “Offer to Exchange”), and the related letter of transmittal for each of the Series G ADSs and the Series H ADSs (collectively, the “Letters of Transmittal”), which, as amended or supplemented from time to time, together constitute the Exchange Offer.
Except as set forth herein, this Amendment No. 3 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule TO or the Offer to Exchange. All information in the Offer to Exchange, including all exhibits and annexes thereto, which were previously filed with the Schedule TO, are hereby expressly incorporated by reference into this Amendment No. 3 in response to all items required in the Schedule TO. This Amendment No. 3 should be read in conjunction with the Schedule TO and Exhibits thereto. All capitalized terms used in this Amendment No. 3 and not otherwise defined have the respective meanings ascribed to them in the Offer to Exchange, as amended or supplemented.
Item 11. Additional Information.
Item 11 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended and supplemented to add the following information:
On October 7, 2016, a putative class action complaint was filed against the Company and six of its directors in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York by a purported holder of Series G ADSs and Series H ADSs. The complaint asserts claims for breach of fiduciary duty and contract. The complaint seeks, among other things, unspecified monetary damages, a declaration regarding certain of the Company’s alleged obligations under the applicable certificates of designation, the restoration of certain alleged rights to non-tendering holders if the Exchange Offer is consummated, and an award of plaintiff’s costs. The Company and director defendants intend to vigorously defend against the complaint.
Item 12. Exhibits.
Item 12 of the Schedule TO is hereby amended to add the following exhibit:

Exhibit (a)(5)(E)
Navios Maritime Holdings Inc.
7 Avenue de Grande Bretagne
MC 98000 Monaco
October 11, 2016
On September 19, 2016, Navios Maritime Holdings Inc. (the “Company”) commenced an exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) of –
 
 	•	 	newly issued shares of its common stock (the “Common Stock”) and/or	
 
 	•	 	cash, for	
any and all outstanding American Depositary Shares, each representing 1/100th of a share of 8.75% Series G Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series G ADSs”) and 8.625% Series H Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series H ADSs”).
The trading volume of the ADSs has declined materially during the year. As a result, the Company is offering holders of the ADSs the opportunity to exchange their ADSs for highly liquid Common Stock, and/or for cash 1 . Under either scenario, an ADS holder will receive consideration reflecting a material premium to the current market price of the ADSs.
Premium
As demonstrated below, the Company is offering a premium ranging from 12% to 26%, as measured by the volume weighted average trading price (“VWAP”) for the year to date period as of October 10, 2016.

Exchange Offer Choices
 
1)	Exchange for Common Stock allows –	
 
 	•	 	Participation in Industry Recovery - Common Stock allows ADS holders to participate in any improvement of the underlying industry and business dynamics.	
 
 	•	 	Common Stock Liquidity - Common Stock offers liquidity, as the trading volume averaged about 58 million shares during each of first three quarters of 2016.	
 
 	•	 	Material Premium - The Company is offering a 5% premium for stock consideration and a 10% premium for cash consideration, calculating such premium based on the 20-day VWAP during the period immediately preceding the launch of the Exchange Offer. These premiums increase to 12% to 21% for stock and 14% to 24% for a 50% combination of stock and cash election, based on the year to date VWAP as of October 10, 2016.	
 
2)	Exchange for Cash allows –	
 
 	•	 	Cash Liquidity - Cash provides ADS holders with immediate cash liquidity for their investment in a largely illiquid market.	
 
 	•	 	Material Premium - The Company is offering a 5% premium for stock consideration and a 10% premium for cash consideration, calculating such premium based on the 20-day VWAP during the period immediately preceding the launch of the Exchange Offer. These premiums increase to 17% to 26% for cash and 14% to 24% for a 50% combination of stock and cash election, based on the year to date VWAP as of October 10, 2016.	
The Exchange Offer allows holders of tendered ADSs to choose (1) shares of the Company’s Common Stock or (2) cash, with material premiums for the exchange consideration ranging from 12% to 26% (as measured by the year to date VWAP as of October 10, 2016). The Exchange Offer takes into account challenging industry conditions and eliminates large and growing financial obligations in face of continued market weakness. Tendering shareholders who receive Common Stock should participate in the recovery as business and industry conditions improve.
 
1 	No more than 50% of the Series G ADSs and the Series H ADSs, each as a class, will be entitled to receive cash; if ADSs are tendered in excess of this 50% limit, the ADSs will be prorated and such excess deemed to have been tendered for Common Stock.
