AMENDMENT NO. 7 TO SCHEDULE 13D

This Amendment No. 7 to Schedule 13D (“Amendment No. 7”) is being filed on behalf of the Reporting Persons relating to shares of common stock of Blyth, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”), $0.02 par value per share (the “Common Stock”). Amendment No. 7 amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on July 13, 2011, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on March 30, 2012, as amended by Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on November 30, 2012, as amended by Amendment No. 3 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on December 26, 2012, as amended by Amendment No. 4 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on April 8, 2013, as amended by Amendment No. 5 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on December 6, 2013 and as amended by Amendment No. 6 to Schedule 13D filed by the Reporting Persons on August 31, 2015 (“Schedule 13D”). Unless otherwise defined herein, all capitalized terms used herein shall have the respective meanings given such terms in the Schedule 13D and unless amended and supplemented hereby, all information previously filed remains in effect.

Item 4. Purpose of the Transaction

Item 4 is supplemented by the addition of the following:

Tender of Shares

Pursuant to the Support Agreement, the Supporting Stockholders have tendered all shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by such stockholders in the Offer. The Offer and withdrawal rights expired as scheduled at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on October 13, 2015. The Offer was not extended.

Following the expiration of the Offer and acceptance for payment of the shares of Common Stock tendered pursuant to the Offer, on October 14, 2015, Parent and Merger Sub were required by the Merger Agreement to consummate as soon as practicable the Merger pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and without a vote or meeting of the Issuer’s stockholders pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time (i.e., the time of the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of Delaware on October 14, 2015), Merger Sub was merged with and into the Issuer, with the Issuer continuing as the surviving corporation and a subsidiary of Parent. At the Effective Time, each of the then issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock (except for (i) shares then held by Parent, Merger Sub or the Issuer or any subsidiary of either the Issuer or Parent, all of which were canceled and retired and ceased to exist, and (ii) shares held by any stockholder of the Issuer who properly demanded appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL in connection with the Merger) were canceled and converted into the right to receive cash in an amount equal to the Offer Price, without interest, less any applicable withholding taxes. The Shares are being delisted from the New York Stock Exchange and deregistered under the Exchange Act.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) As a result of the transactions described in Item 4 herein, none of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns any shares of Common Stock of the Issuer as of October 14, 2015.

(c) Except for the tender and acceptance of the Supporting Stockholders’ Common Stock in the Offer, as described in Item 4 herein, no transaction in the Common Stock was effected since the most recent filing of this Schedule 13D by any of the Reporting Persons.

(d) Except as set forth in this Item 5, no person other than those listed above is known to have the right to receive, or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or proceeds from the sale of, the shares of Common Stock reported in this Schedule 13D.

(e) As a result of the transactions described in Item 4 herein, none of the Reporting Persons beneficially owns any shares of Common Stock of the Issuer as of October 14, 2015.
