I suppose it is OK as an advertising claim, although it would be nice if they 
at least used a leading zero.
 
As official net contents (per FPLA and related rules):
*A decimal fraction of a liter less than 1.0  is not allowed, milliliters must 
be used.
*There must be a clear zone around the net contents free of advertising (like 
the recycled symbol)
*The pesky Customary is still required

"HALF LITER" used to be the language on the wrapper.  This Ozarka package of 24 
500 mL bottles says it differently. Taken at  Albertson's supermarket in 
Midland, Texas, USA.
