This Amendment No. 4 amends and supplements Item 8 in the Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 filed by zulily, inc. (the “Company”) with the SEC on September 1, 2015 (as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Schedule 14D-9”). The Schedule 14D-9 relates to the exchange offer (the “Offer”) by Mocha Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”) and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Liberty Interactive Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Liberty Interactive”), to exchange all of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value of $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”) and the Company’s Class B common stock, par value of $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Common Stock” and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Shares”). Pursuant to the Offer, Purchaser is offering to exchange for each outstanding Share:

upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Exchange, dated as of September 1, 2015 (as amended or supplemented from time to time), and in the related letter of transmittal (as amended or supplemented from time to time).

Except as otherwise set forth below, the information set forth in the Schedule 14D-9 remains unchanged. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Schedule 14D-9.

Item 8 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by inserting as the third paragraph of the subsection entitled “Certain Litigation” the disclosure set forth below:

“On September 21, 2015, Krisha Mada, a purported stockholder of the Company, filed a putative class action complaint (the “Mana Complaint”) in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware against the Company, the Board, Mark Vadon, Darrell Cavens, Liberty Interactive, Purchaser, Merger Sub 2 and Goldman Sachs. The Mada Complaint alleges that: (i) the members of the Board breached their fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Transactions; (ii) Mark Vadon and Darrell Cavens breached their fiduciary duties to the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Transactions; and (iii) Liberty Interactive, Purchaser and Merger Sub 2 and Goldman Sachs aided and abetted such breaches of fiduciary duties. The suits seek, among other things: (i) certification as a class action; (ii) an order enjoining the Transactions; (iii) rescission of the Reorganization Agreement, or any terms thereof, to the extent already implemented or granting of rescissory damages; and (iv) an award of the costs and disbursements of the action, including reasonable attorneys’ and experts’ fees.”

Item 9 of the Schedule 14D-9 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding to the list of Exhibits immediately following the Exhibit listed as Exhibit (a)(5)(E) the Exhibit as follows:
