(1)Estimated for purposes of calculating the amount of the filing fee only. The transaction valuation was calculated by adding the sum of (i) (A) 28,393,960 shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”) and (B) 135,270,830 shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Shares” and, together with Class A Shares, the “Shares”), of Castlight Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Castlight”), issued and outstanding multiplied by the offer price of $2.05 per Share, (ii) 15,284,623 Class B Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding restricted stock unit awards multiplied by the offer price of $2.05 per Share, (iii) 748,200 Class B Shares issuable pursuant to outstanding performance stock unit awards multiplied by the offer price of $2.05 per Share (based on 75% of the number of Class B Shares underlying such performance stock unit awards), and (iv) the net offer price for options to purchase 4,215,100 Class B Shares with an exercise price less than $2.05 per Class B Share (which is calculated by multiplying the number of Class B Shares underlying such in-the-money stock options by an amount equal to $2.05 per Class B Share minus the weighted average exercise price of $1.39 per Class B Share). The foregoing share figures have been provided by Castlight and are as of January 12 2022, the most recent practicable date.

(2)The amount of the filing fee was calculated in accordance with Rule 0-11 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Fee Rate Advisory #1 for fiscal year 2022 beginning on October 1, 2021, issued August 22, 2021, by multiplying the transaction value by 0.0000927.

Offer to Purchase for Cash
All Outstanding Shares of
Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock
of

CASTLIGHT HEALTH, INC.
at
$2.05 Net Per Share
by
CARBON MERGER SUB, INC.,
a wholly owned subsidiary of
VERA WHOLE HEALTH, INC.

THE OFFER AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS WILL EXPIRE AT
ONE MINUTE AFTER 11:59 P.M., NEW YORK CITY TIME, ON FEBRUARY 16, 2022,
UNLESS THE OFFER IS EXTENDED OR EARLIER TERMINATED.

The Offer (as defined below) is being made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 4, 2022 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Merger Agreement”), among Vera Whole Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Carbon Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Purchaser”), and Castlight Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Castlight”). Purchaser is offering to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of Castlight’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”) and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Shares” and, together with the Class A Shares, the “Shares”), at a price of $2.05 per Share, net to the seller, in cash, without interest and subject to any required tax withholdings (the “Offer Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this offer to purchase (together with any amendments or supplements hereto, this “Offer to Purchase”) and the related letter of transmittal (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Letter of Transmittal” and, together with this Offer to Purchase, the “Offer”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, following the consummation of the Offer (the date and time of Purchaser’s acceptance of Shares tendered for payment, the “Acceptance Time”) and the satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Purchaser will merge with and into Castlight (the “Merger”), with Castlight continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”). As a result of the Merger, each Share issued and outstanding that is not tendered and accepted pursuant to the Offer immediately prior to the Effective Time (defined below) (other than (i) Shares owned directly or indirectly by Parent or Purchaser, (ii) Shares held by Castlight as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time ((i) and (ii), collectively “Company Owned Shares”), and Shares owned by a holder who has properly demanded appraisal under Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) and who has not effectively withdrawn such demand (“Dissenting Shares”)) will, at the Effective Time, be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price, without interest and subject to any required tax withholdings. The Offer, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are collectively referred to in this Offer to Purchase as the “Transactions.”

On January 4, 2022, the board of directors of Castlight (the “Castlight Board”) unanimously (i) determined the Transactions are fair to and in the best interests of Castlight and its stockholders, (ii) approved and declared advisable the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement by Castlight, the performance by Castlight of its covenants and other obligations thereunder, and the consummation of the Transactions upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (iii) resolved that the Merger Agreement and the Transactions shall be governed by and effected under Section 251(h) and other relevant provisions of the DGCL and (iv) resolved to recommend that the stockholders of Castlight accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

There is no financing condition to the Offer. The Offer is subject to the satisfaction of the Minimum Tender Condition (as defined below) and other conditions described in Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer.” If the number of Shares tendered in the Offer is insufficient to cause the Minimum Tender Condition to be satisfied or if any of the other conditions of the Offer are not satisfied upon expiration of the Offer (taking into account any extensions thereof as permitted by the Merger Agreement), then (i) neither the Offer nor the Merger will be consummated and (ii) Castlight’s stockholders will not receive the Offer Price pursuant to the Offer or any Merger Consideration (as defined below) pursuant to the Merger. A summary of the principal

terms of the Offer appears on pages 1 through 8 of this Offer to Purchase under the heading “Summary Term Sheet.” You should read this Offer to Purchase and the other documents to which this Offer to Purchase refers carefully before deciding whether to tender your Shares.

Who is offering to buy my Shares?

Purchaser is offering to purchase all of the issued and outstanding Shares. Purchaser is a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent which was formed for the sole purpose of making the Offer and completing the process by which Castlight will become a subsidiary of Parent through the merger of Purchaser with and into Castlight (the “Merger”). Parent is controlled by the CD&R Funds, which are advised by CD&R. See the “Introduction,” Section 8 – “Certain Information Concerning Parent and Purchaser” and Schedule I – “Directors and Executive Officers of Purchaser, Parent, Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC and Controlling Entities.”

How many Shares are you offering to purchase in the Offer?

We are making an offer to purchase all of the issued and outstanding Shares on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal. See the “Introduction” and Section 1 – “Terms of the Offer.”

2

How much are you offering to pay and what is the form of payment? Will I have to pay any fees or commissions?

We are offering to pay $2.05 per Share, net to you, in cash, without interest and subject to any required tax withholdings. If you are the record owner of your Shares and you directly tender your Shares to us in the Offer, you will not pay brokerage fees, commissions or similar expenses. If you own your Shares through a broker or other nominee, and your broker or nominee tenders your Shares on your behalf, your broker or nominee may charge you a fee for doing so. You should consult with your broker or nominee to determine whether any charges will apply. See the “Introduction,” Section 1 – “Terms of the Offer,” and Section 2 – “Acceptance for Payment and Payment for Shares.”

Is there an agreement governing the Offer?

Yes. The Agreement and Plan of Merger entered into by Parent, Purchaser and Castlight on January 4, 2022 provides, among other things, for the terms and conditions of the Offer and the Merger. See Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements” and Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer.”

What are the most significant conditions of the Offer?

Our obligation to purchase Shares tendered in the Offer is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the following conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Offer Conditions”), including, among other things:

(i)that the number of Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the Offer Expiration Time (excluding Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been delivered in satisfaction of such guarantee in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL), together with any Shares beneficially owned by Purchaser or its “affiliates” (as defined in Section 251(h) of the DGCL), will, immediately after giving effect to the acceptance for payment of Shares in the Offer, equal at least one vote more than 50% of the aggregate voting power of all issued and outstanding Shares (such condition, the “Minimum Tender Condition”);

(ii)the accuracy of Castlight’s representations and warranties contained in the Merger Agreement (subject to certain materiality and Company Material Adverse Effect (as defined in the Merger Agreement and described in Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements,” “Material Adverse Effect”) qualifiers) (as described in Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements”) (such condition, the “Representations Condition”);

(iii)Castlight will have performed and complied in all material respects with all covenants, obligations and conditions of the Merger Agreement required to be performed and complied with by it on or prior to the Expiration Time (such condition, the “Covenants Condition”);

(iv)no Company Material Adverse Effect will have occurred since the date of the Merger Agreement that is continuing (such condition, the “MAE Condition”);

(v)Purchaser and Parent will have received a certificate of Castlight and its subsidiaries (the “Company Group”), validly executed for and on behalf of Castlight by a duly authorized executive officer thereof, certifying that the Representations Condition, the Covenants Condition and the MAE Condition have been satisfied (such condition, the “Compliance Certificate Condition”);

(vi)no temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or other judgment or order issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or other legal or regulatory restraint or prohibition (a “Legal Restraint”) preventing the consummation of the Offer or the Merger will be in effect, nor will any action have been taken by any Governmental Authority (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of competent jurisdiction, and no statute, rule, regulation or order will have been enacted, entered, enforced or deemed applicable to the Offer or the Merger, that in each case prohibits, makes illegal, or enjoins the consummation of the Offer or the Merger (such condition, the “No Order Condition”);

(vii)any waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”) applicable to the Transactions shall have expired or been earlier terminated (such condition, the “Required Approvals Condition”); and

(viii)the Merger Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with its terms (such condition, the “Termination Condition”).

See Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer.”

3

Do you have the financial resources to pay for all of the issued and outstanding Shares that you are offering to purchase in the Offer and to consummate the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement?

Purchaser estimates that it will need up to approximately $338 million to purchase all of the issued and outstanding Shares in the Offer, to provide funding for the consideration to be paid in the Merger and to pay related fees and expenses at the Closing (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of the Transactions (the “Transaction Uses”). CD&R Fund XI has provided to Purchaser an equity commitment equal to $338 million (the “Equity Financing”). The proceeds of the Equity Financing, together with Parent and Castlight’s available cash, will be sufficient to pay the Offer Price for all Shares tendered in the Offer and the other Transaction Uses. Funding of the Equity Financing is subject to the satisfaction of various customary conditions set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter. The Offer and the Merger are not conditioned upon Parent’s or Purchaser’s ability to finance the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer and pay for the Shares acquired in the Merger.

See Section 9 – “Source and Amount of Funds.”

Is your financial condition relevant to my decision to tender my Shares in the Offer?

We do not think that our financial condition is relevant to your decision whether to tender Shares and accept the Offer because:

the consideration offered in the Offer consists solely of cash;

the Offer is being made for all issued and outstanding Shares;

if we consummate the Offer, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, we have agreed to acquire all remaining Shares for the same cash price in the Merger (the “Per Share Price”);

the Offer is not subject to any financing condition; and

we have all of the financial resources, including committed equity financing, sufficient to finance the Offer and the Merger.

See Section 9 – “Source and Amount of Funds.”

Why are you making the Offer?

We are making the Offer because we want to acquire all of the equity interests in Castlight. If the Offer is consummated, as promptly as practicable after consummation of the Offer, Purchaser will merge with and into Castlight, with Castlight as the Surviving Corporation. See Section 12 – “Purpose of the Offer; Plans for Castlight.”

What does the Castlight Board think about the Offer?

We are making the Offer pursuant to the Merger Agreement, which has been unanimously approved by Castlight’s Board. Castlight’s Board has unanimously:

determined that the Merger Agreement and the Transactions are fair to and in the best interests of Castlight and Castlight’s stockholders;

declared it advisable to enter into the Merger Agreement;

authorized and approved the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement by Castlight, the performance by Castlight of its covenants and other obligations under the Merger Agreement, and the consummation of the Transactions upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement; and

resolved to recommend that the stockholders of Castlight’s accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer.

A more complete description of the Castlight’s Board’s reasons for authorizing and approving the Merger Agreement and the Transactions, including the Offer and the Merger, will be set forth in Castlight’s Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that is being mailed to the stockholders of Castlight promptly hereafter. See the “Introduction” and Section 10 – “Background of the Offer; Past Contacts or Negotiations with Castlight.”

4

Has the Castlight Board received a fairness opinion in connection with the Offer and the Merger?

Yes. William Blair & Company, L.L.C. (“William Blair”), the financial advisor to Castlight, delivered an oral opinion to the Castlight Board, which was subsequently confirmed by delivery of a written opinion dated January 4, 2022, to the effect that, as of that date and based upon and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations stated in its written opinion, the consideration to be received by the stockholders of Castlight (other than Company Owned Shares and Dissenting Shares) was fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders. The full text of William Blair’s written opinion, which describes the assumptions, qualifications and limitations stated in such written opinion, will be included as an annex to Schedule 14D-9. William Blair’s opinion was provided for the benefit of the Castlight Board in connection with, and for the purpose of, its evaluation of the Offer Price in the Transaction and addresses only the fairness, from a financial point of view, to holders of Shares of the consideration to be received pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Stockholders are urged to read the full text of that opinion carefully and in its entirety.

How long do I have to decide whether to tender my Shares in the Offer?

If you desire to tender all or any portion of your Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer, you must comply with the procedures described in this Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal, as applicable, by the Offer Expiration Time. The term “Offer Expiration Time” means one minute after 11:59 P.M., New York City time, on February 16, 2022, unless, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the Offer has been extended, in which event the term “Offer Expiration Time” means such later time and date to which the Offer has been extended. Further, if you cannot deliver everything that is required in order to make a valid tender by that time, you may be able to use a guaranteed delivery procedure by which a broker, a bank or any other fiduciary that is an eligible institution may guarantee that the missing items will be received by the Depositary within two NYSE (as defined below) trading days. Shares delivered by a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery will not be counted by Purchaser toward the satisfaction of the Minimum Condition; therefore it is preferable for Shares to be tendered by the other methods described herein. See Section 1—“Terms of the Offer” and Section 3—“Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares.”

Accordingly, if you hold Shares registered in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, you should contact such institution as soon as possible in order to determine the times by which you must take action in order to tender Shares in the Offer.

Can the Offer be extended and under what circumstances?

Yes. We have agreed in the Merger Agreement that, subject to our rights and Castlight’s rights to terminate the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms or terminate the Offer under certain circumstances:

we will extend the Offer for any period required by any applicable law, any interpretation or position of the SEC, the staff thereof or any rules and regulations of the NYSE applicable to the Offer (including in order to comply with Rule 14e-1(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act in respect of any change in the Offer Price), in each case, as applicable to the Offer, the Schedule 14D-9 or the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer (together with any exhibits, supplements or amendments thereto, the “Offer Documents”); and

if, as of any then-scheduled Offer Expiration Time, any Offer Condition (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Offer Expiration Time) is not satisfied and has not been waived, we will extend the Offer on one or more occasions, for one or more additional periods of up to ten (10) business days per extension (or such longer period as Castlight and Parent may agree in writing), to permit such Offer Conditions to be satisfied; provided, that if the sole such unsatisfied Offer Condition is the Minimum Condition (other than any Offer Conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Expiration Time), Purchaser shall not be required (and Parent shall not be required to cause Purchaser) to extend the Offer thereafter for more than twenty (20) business days; provided, further, that in no event will Purchaser be required to extend the Offer beyond the earlier of (i) 11:59 p.m., Pacific time, on July 3, 2022 (the “Termination Date”), which Termination Date shall automatically be extended to September 1, 2022 (the “Extended Termination Date”) if the Closing shall not have occurred prior to the Termination Date and all the conditions to Closing (other than conditions that (1) any waiting period under the HSR Act applicable to the Transactions shall have been terminated or expired, and any date before which each of the parties have committed in writing to the FTC, the DOJ, or any other governmental authority not to close the Transactions shall have passed (the “Required Approvals Merger Condition”), and (2) no temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or other judgment or order issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or other legal or regulatory restraint or prohibition (a “Legal Restraint”) preventing the consummation of the Merger will be in effect, nor will any action have been taken by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, and no statute, rule, regulation or order will have been enacted, entered, enforced or deemed applicable to the Merger, that in each case prohibits, makes illegal, or enjoins the consummation of the Merger (the “No Order Merger Condition”)) and those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Offer Expiration Time) shall have been satisfied or waived, or (ii) the valid termination of the Merger Agreement.

5

If we extend the time period of the Offer, this extension will extend the time that you will have to tender your Shares. See Section 1 – “Terms of the Offer” for more details on our ability to extend the Offer.

How will I be notified if the Offer is extended?

If we extend the Offer, we will inform the Depositary and Paying Agent (as defined below) of that fact and will make a public announcement of the extension not later than 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the next business day after the day on which the Offer was scheduled to expire. See Section 1 – “Terms of the Offer.”

How do I tender my Shares?

If you wish to accept the Offer and:

you hold your Shares through a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, you should contact your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee and give instructions that your Shares be tendered in accordance with the procedures described in this Offer to Purchase and the Letter of Transmittal; or

you are a record holder (i.e., a stock certificate has been issued to you and registered in your name or your Shares are registered in “book entry” form in your name with Castlight’s transfer agent), you must deliver the stock certificate(s) representing your Shares (or follow the procedures described in this Offer to Purchase for book-entry transfer), together with a duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal (or, with respect to Eligible Institutions (as defined below), a manually executed facsimile thereof) or an Agent’s Message (as defined in Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” below) in connection with a book-entry delivery of Shares, and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal, to the Depositary and Paying Agent. These materials must reach the Depositary and Paying Agent before the Offer expires.

See the Letter of Transmittal and Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” for more information.

May I withdraw Shares I previously tendered in the Offer? Until what time may I withdraw tendered Shares?

Yes. You may withdraw previously tendered Shares any time prior to the Offer Expiration Time and, if not previously accepted for payment, at any time after March 20, 2022, which is the date that is 60 days after the date of the commencement of the Offer, pursuant to SEC regulations, by following the procedures for withdrawing your Shares. To withdraw your Shares, you must deliver a written notice of withdrawal, or a facsimile of one, with the required information to the Depositary and Paying Agent for the Offer, while you have the right to withdraw your Shares. If you tendered your Shares by giving instructions to a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, you must instruct your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee prior to the Offer Expiration Time to arrange for the withdrawal of your Shares. See Section 4 – “Withdrawal Rights.”

Do I have to vote to approve the Offer or the Merger?

Your vote is not required to approve the Offer or the Merger. You only need to tender your Shares if you choose to do so. If following the completion of the Offer, if the Minimum Tender Condition has been satisfied, and the other Offer Conditions are satisfied or waived, we will be able to consummate the Merger pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL without a vote or any further action by the stockholders of Castlight. See Section 12 – “Purpose of the Offer; Plans for Castlight.”

If the Offer is successfully completed, will Castlight continue as a public company?

No. If the Minimum Tender Condition has been satisfied, and the other Offer Conditions are satisfied or waived, we expect to consummate the Merger in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL, and no stockholder vote to adopt the Merger Agreement or any other action by the stockholders of Castlight will be required in connection with the Merger. If the Merger takes place, Castlight will no longer be publicly-owned. We do not expect there to be a significant period of time between the consummation of the Offer and the consummation of the Merger. If you decide not to tender your Shares in the Offer and the Merger occurs as described above, you will receive as a result of the Merger the right to receive the same amount of cash per Share as if you had tendered your Shares in the Offer. Upon consummation of the Merger, the Class B Shares will no longer be eligible to be traded on NYSE or any other securities exchange, there will not be a public trading market for the common stock of Castlight, and Castlight will no longer be required to make filings with the SEC or otherwise comply with the rules of the SEC relating to publicly-held companies. See Section 13 – “Certain Effects of the Offer.”

If you do not consummate the Offer, will you nevertheless consummate the Merger?

No. Neither we nor Castlight is under any obligation to pursue or consummate the Merger if the Offer is not consummated.

6

Do I have appraisal rights in connection with the Offer and the Merger?

Appraisal rights are not available as a result of the Offer. However, if the Merger takes place, stockholders who have not tendered their Shares in the Offer and who are entitled to demand and properly demand appraisal of such Shares pursuant to, and comply in all respects with, the applicable provisions of Delaware law, will be entitled to appraisal rights under Delaware law. See Section 17 – “Appraisal Rights”.

If I decide not to tender, how will the Offer affect my Shares?

If you decide not to tender your Shares pursuant to the Offer and the Merger occurs as described herein, you will receive as a result of the Merger the right to receive the same amount of cash per Share as if you had tendered your Shares pursuant to the Offer, subject to any required tax withholdings and without interest.

Subject to the satisfaction of the Required Approvals Merger Condition and the No Order Merger Condition, if the Minimum Tender Condition and the other Offer Conditions are satisfied, we are obligated under the Merger Agreement to cause the Merger to occur.

Because the Merger will be governed by Section 251(h) of the DGCL, assuming the requirements of Section 251(h) of the DGCL are met, no stockholder vote by the stockholders of Castlight will be required in connection with the consummation of the Merger. We do not expect there to be significant time between the consummation of the Offer and the consummation of the Merger. See Section 12 – “Purpose of the Offer; Plans for Castlight.”

If the number of Shares tendered in the Offer is insufficient to cause the Minimum Tender Condition to be satisfied upon expiration of the Offer (taking into account any extensions thereof as permitted by the Merger Agreement), then (i) neither the Offer nor the Merger will be consummated and (ii) Castlight’s stockholders will not receive the Offer Price or Per Share Price pursuant to the Offer or Merger, as applicable.

Will there be a subsequent offering period?

No. Pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL, we expect the Merger to occur as promptly as practicable following the date and time of Purchaser’s acceptance of Shares tendered for payment (the “Acceptance Time”) without a subsequent offering period.

What is the market value of my Shares as of a recent date?

On January 4, 2022, the last full trading day before Parent and Castlight announced that they had entered into the Merger Agreement, the closing price of the Shares reported on NYSE was $1.64 per Share; therefore, the Offer Price of $2.05 per Share represents a premium of (i) approximately 25% over such price and (ii) a premium of approximately 35% to the volume-weighted average price of the Shares on NYSE over the thirty trading day period ended on January 4, 2022. On January 18, 2022, the last full trading day prior to the commencement of this Offer, the closing price of the Shares reported on NYSE was $2.03 per Share.

Have any stockholders already agreed to tender their Shares in the Offer or to otherwise support the Offer?

Yes. Entities affiliated (i) with Maverick Capital Ltd. (“Maverick”) and (ii) with Venrock (“Venrock” and, collectively, the “Supporting Stockholders”), solely in their capacities as stockholders of Castlight, have entered into Tender and Support Agreements (the “Tender and Support Agreements”) that, among other things, requires the Supporting Stockholders to tender of all of their Shares in the Offer and not to: (a) (i) transfer any of their Shares; or (ii) take any action that would materially restrict or prevent the performance of the Supporting Stockholder’s obligations under the Tender and Support Agreements, excluding any involuntary bankruptcy filing; (b) exercise any appraisal rights with respect to the Offer or the Merger; or (c) commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or otherwise, against Parent or Purchaser, Castlight or any of their respective affiliates, any of their respective successors or the directors or officers of any of the foregoing, in each case relating to the Transactions. As of January 4, 2022, (the date the Tender and Support Agreements were executed), the Supporting Stockholders collectively beneficially own approximately 18% of the outstanding Shares. Parent and Purchaser expressly disclaim beneficial ownership of all Shares covered by the Tender and Support Agreements. For more information related to the agreement entered into by such Supporting Stockholders, see Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements – Tender and Support Agreement”.

Other than the foregoing, none of the stockholders of Castlight have entered into any agreement with us or any of our affiliates to tender their Shares in the Offer in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement. Castlight has informed us that, as of January 12, 2022, the executive officers and directors of Castlight beneficially owned, directly or indirectly (excluding, with respect to Dr. Bryan Roberts, Shares beneficially owned indirectly through Venrock), in the aggregate, 5,295,400 Shares (excluding any option to purchase Shares granted under any of the Company Equity Plans (as defined below), any award of restricted stock units granted under any of the Company Equity Plans or any award of performance-based restricted stock units granted under any of the Company

7

Equity Plans (collectively, the “Castlight Equity Awards”)) and that, to the best of Castlight’s knowledge, each executive officer and director of Castlight who owns Shares presently intends to tender in the Offer all Shares that he or she owns. The foregoing does not include any shares over which, or with respect to which, any such executive officer or director acts in a fiduciary or representative capacity or is subject to the instructions of a third party with respect to such tender.

If I tender my Shares, when and how will I get paid?

If the Offer Conditions are satisfied or, to the extent permitted, waived, and we consummate the Offer and accept your Shares for payment, we will pay you an amount equal to the number of Shares you tendered multiplied by $2.05 in cash without interest and subject to any required tax withholdings, promptly following the Acceptance Time. See Section 1 – “Terms of the Offer” and Section 2 – “Acceptance for Payment and Payment of Shares.”

What will happen to my stock options in the Offer and the Merger?

The Offer is made only for Shares and is not being made for any outstanding options to purchase Shares. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each option to purchase Shares granted under the Castlight Health, Inc. 2008 Stock Incentive Plan, the Jiff Inc. 2010 Stock Plan and the Castlight Health, Inc. 2014 Equity Incentive Plan (collectively, the “Company Stock Plans”) or under that certain option award agreement between Castlight and Vijay Anand, dated September 3, 2020 (each such option, a “Stock Option”) that is vested, outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time, and that has an exercise price per Share underlying such Stock Option (the “Option Exercise Price”) that is less than the Merger Consideration (each such Stock Option (or any part thereof), a “Vested In-the-Money Stock Option”) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash determined by multiplying (A) the excess of the Merger Consideration over the Option Exercise Price of such Vested In-the-Money Stock Option by (B) the number of Shares subject to such Vested In-the-Money Stock Option, subject to any required tax withholdings. Each Stock Option that has an Option Exercise Price that is less than the Merger Consideration that is not a Vested In-the-Money Stock Option (each such Stock Option (or any part thereof), an “Unvested In-the-Money Stock Option”) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash replacement amount, subject to the same vesting conditions as applied to the Unvested In-the-Money Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, equal to the product of (A) the excess of the Merger Consideration over the Option Exercise Price of such Unvested In-the-Money Stock Option by (B) the number of Shares subject to such Unvested In-the-Money Stock Option, subject to any required tax withholdings. Each Stock Option that has an Option Exercise Price that is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, whether or not exercisable or vested, shall be cancelled without payment. See Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements.”

What will happen to my restricted stock units in the Offer and the Merger?

The Offer is made only for Shares and is not being made for any outstanding restricted stock units granted under the Stock Plans or under that certain restricted stock unit award agreement between Castlight and Vijay Anand, dated September 3, 2020, that are subject to vesting conditions based solely on continued employment or service to Castlight or its subsidiaries (each, a “Company RSU”). As of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company RSU that is then-outstanding and unvested and held by a non-employee director of the Company shall become immediately vested in full. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each Company RSU (or any part thereof) that is vested and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Vested Company RSU”) shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash determined by multiplying (A) the Merger Consideration multiplied by (B) the number of Shares subject to such Vested Company RSU, subject to any required tax withholdings. Each Company RSU (or any part thereof) that is not a Vested Company RSU (each such Company RSU, an “Unvested Company RSU”) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash replacement amount, subject to the same vesting conditions as applied to the Unvested Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, equal to the product of (A) the Merger Consideration multiplied by (B) the number of Shares subject to such Unvested Company RSU, subject to any required tax withholdings. See Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements.”

What will happen to my performance stock units in the Offer and the Merger?

The Offer is made only for Shares and is not being made for any outstanding restricted stock units granted under Castlight Stock Plans that are subject to performance-based vesting conditions (each, a “Company PSU”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the performance of each outstanding Company PSU will be deemed earned at 75% achievement and each Company PSU (or any part thereof) that is vested and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each, a “Vested Company PSU”) shall be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash determined by multiplying (A) the Merger Consideration by (B) the number of Shares subject to such Vested Company PSU, subject to any required tax withholdings. Each Company PSU (or any part thereof) that is not a Vested Company PSU (each such Company PSU, an “Unvested Company PSU”) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash replacement amount, subject to the same vesting conditions as applied to the Unvested Company PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, equal to the product of (A) the Merger Consideration multiplied by (B) the number of Shares subject to such Unvested Company PSU, subject to any required tax withholdings. See Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements.”

What are the material United States federal income tax consequences of the Offer and the Merger to a United States Holder?

If you are a United States Holder (as defined in Section 5 – “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences”), the receipt of cash by you in exchange for your Shares pursuant to the Offer or the Merger will be a taxable transaction for United States federal income tax purposes. In general, if you are a United States Holder and you hold your Shares as a capital asset, you will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of cash you receive and your adjusted tax basis in such Shares exchanged therefor. Such gain or loss will generally be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss if you have held your Shares for more than one year at the time of the exchange. If you are a non-United States Holder (as defined in Section 5 – “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences”), you generally will not be subject to United States federal income tax with respect to the exchange of Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer or the Merger unless you have certain connections to the United States. See Section 5 – “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences” for a summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences of tendering Shares pursuant to the Offer or exchanging Shares in the Merger.

You are urged to consult your own tax advisors to determine the tax consequences to you of the Offer and the Merger in light of your particular circumstances, including the application and effect of any state, local or non-United States tax laws.

INTRODUCTION

Carbon Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Vera Whole Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent” and, together with Purchaser, the “Buyer Parties”), hereby offers to purchase for cash all issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”) and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Shares” and, together with the Class A Shares, the “Shares”), of Castlight Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Castlight”), at a price of $2.05 per Share, net to the seller, in cash without interest and subject to any required tax withholdings (the “Offer Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this offer to purchase (this “Offer to Purchase”) and in the related letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”) (which, together with any amendments or supplements hereto or thereto, collectively constitute the “Offer”). Castlight has informed us that, as of January 12, 2022, the executive officers and directors of Castlight beneficially owned, directly or indirectly (excluding, with respect to Dr. Bryan Roberts, Shares beneficially owned indirectly through Venrock), in the aggregate, 5,295,400 Shares. Maverick and Venrock have agreed to tender all Shares pursuant the Tender and Support Agreements, dated as of January 4, 2022, by and among Parent, Purchaser and the stockholders party thereto (the "Tender and Support Agreements"). Other than the foregoing, none of the stockholders of Castlight have entered into any agreement with us or any of our affiliates to tender their Shares in the Offer in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement. Castlight has informed us that, as of January 14, 2022, the executive officers and directors of Castlight beneficially owned, directly or indirectly (excluding, with respect to Dr. Bryan Roberts, Shares beneficially owned indirectly through Venrock), in the aggregate, 5,295,400 Shares (excluding any option to purchase Shares granted under any of the Company Equity Plans (as defined below), any award of restricted stock units granted under any of the Company Equity Plans or any award of performance-based restricted stock units granted under any of the Company Equity Plans (collectively, the "Company Equity Awards"). Company Equity Awards and that, to the best of Castlight’s knowledge, after reasonable inquiry, each executive officer and director of Castlight who owns Shares presently intends to tender in the Offer all Shares that he or she owns of record or beneficially. The foregoing does not include any Shares over which, or with respect to which, any such executive officer or director acts in a fiduciary or representative capacity or is subject to the instructions of a third party with respect to such tender. The Offer and withdrawal rights will expire at one minute past 11:59 P.M., New York City time, on February 16, 2022 (the “Offer Expiration Time”), unless the Offer is extended in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement.

The Offer is being made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 4, 2022, among Parent, Purchaser and Castlight (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides that as promptly as practicable after the consummation of the Offer, Purchaser will merge with and into Castlight (the “Merger”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”), with Castlight continuing as the surviving corporation (the “Surviving Corporation”) in the Merger. Because the Merger will be governed by Section 251(h) of the DGCL, assuming the requirements of Section 251(h) of the DGCL are met, no Castlight stockholder vote will be required to adopt the Merger Agreement and consummate the Merger. As a result of the Merger, the Class B Shares will cease to be publicly traded. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, after the completion of the Offer and the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, the Merger will be consummated by executing and filing with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a certificate of merger (the “Certificate of Merger”) in accordance with the relevant provisions of the DGCL. The Merger shall become effective upon the filing of the Certificate of Merger with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware or at such later date or time as may be agreed in writing by Parent, Purchaser and Castlight and specified in the Certificate of Merger (the “Effective Time”). At the Effective Time, each Share issued and outstanding that is not tendered and accepted pursuant to the Offer immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than Shares owned directly or indirectly by Parent or Purchaser, Shares held by Castlight as treasury stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (“Company Owned Shares”), and Shares owned by a holder who has properly demanded appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL and who has not effectively withdrawn such demand (“Dissenting Shares”)) will be cancelled and extinguished and automatically converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the Offer Price (the “Per Share Price”), without interest and subject to any required tax withholdings. Under no circumstances will interest on the Offer Price or Per Share Price for Shares be paid to the stockholders of Castlight, regardless of any delay in payment for such Shares. The Merger Agreement is more fully described in Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements,” which also contains a discussion of the treatment of Company Equity Awards.

Tendering stockholders who are record owners of their Shares and tender directly to the Depositary and Paying Agent (as defined below) will not be obligated to pay brokerage fees or commissions or, except as otherwise provided in the instructions to the Letter of Transmittal, stock transfer taxes with respect to the purchase of Shares by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer. Stockholders who hold their Shares through a broker or bank should consult such institution as to whether it charges any brokerage or other service fees. Parent or Purchaser will pay all charges and expenses of American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, acting as the depositary and paying agent for the Offer (the “Depositary and Paying Agent”), and D.F. King & Co., Inc. (“D.F. King”), acting as the information agent for the Offer, incurred in connection with the Offer. See Section 18 – “Fees and Expenses.”

On January 4, 2022, the board of directors of Castlight (the “Castlight Board”) unanimously (i) determined the Transactions are fair to and in the best interests of Castlight and its stockholders, (ii) approved and declared advisable the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement by Castlight, the performance by Castlight of its covenants and other obligations

10

thereunder, and the consummation of the Transactions upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, (iii) resolved that the Merger Agreement and the Transactions shall be governed by and effected under Section 251(h) and other relevant provisions of the DGCL and (iv) resolved to recommend that the stockholders of Castlight accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement. A more complete description of the Castlight Board’s reasons for authorizing and approving the Merger Agreement and the Transactions, including the Offer and the Merger, will be set forth in Castlight’s Solicitation/Recommendation Statement on Schedule 14D-9 (together with any supplements thereto, “Schedule 14D-9”) under the Exchange Act. The Schedule 14D-9 will be mailed to Castlight’s stockholders in connection with the Offer together with, or as promptly as practicable after the mailing of, this Offer to Purchase, the Letter of Transmittal and other related materials.

The Offer is not subject to any financing condition. The Offer is conditioned upon the Offer Conditions, which are the following (and are defined in Section 15 -- “Certain Conditions of the Offer”): (i) the Minimum Tender Condition; (ii) the Required Approvals Condition; (iii) the No Order Condition; (iv) the Representations Condition; (v) the Covenants Condition; (vi) the MAE Condition; (vii) the Compliance Certificate Condition; and (viii) the Termination Condition. See Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer.”

Section 251(h) of the DGCL provides that, subject to certain statutory requirements, if following consummation of a tender offer for a public Delaware corporation, the stock irrevocably accepted for purchase pursuant to such tender offer and received by the depositary prior to the expiration of such tender offer, plus the stock otherwise owned by the consummating corporation equals at least such percentage of the stock, and of each class or series thereof, of the target corporation that would otherwise be required to adopt a merger agreement under the DGCL or the target corporation’s certificate of incorporation, and each outstanding share of each class or series of stock that is the subject of such tender offer and is not irrevocably accepted for purchase in the offer is to be converted in such merger into the right to receive the same amount and kind of consideration to be paid for shares of such class or series of stock irrevocably accepted for purchase in such tender offer, the consummating corporation may effect a merger without a vote of the stockholders of the target corporation. Accordingly, if the number of Shares validly tendered in accordance with the terms of the Offer and not validly withdrawn prior to the Offer Expiration Time (excluding Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been delivered in satisfaction of such guarantee in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL), together with any Shares beneficially owned by Purchaser or its “affiliates” (as defined in Section 251(h) of the DGCL), will, immediately after giving effect to the acceptance for payment of Shares in the Offer, equal at least one vote more than 50% of the aggregate voting power of all issued and outstanding Shares, and the other Offer Conditions are satisfied or waived, Purchaser will not seek the approval of Castlight’s remaining public stockholders before effecting the Merger. Section 251(h) of the DGCL also requires that the Merger Agreement provide that such merger will be effected as soon as practicable, subject to the conditions specified in the Merger Agreement, following the consummation of the tender offer. Therefore, Castlight, Parent and Purchaser have agreed to take all necessary action to cause the Merger to become effective as promptly as practicable following the acceptance for payment of all Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn pursuant to the Offer. See Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements.”

No appraisal rights are available in connection with the Offer. However, if Purchaser accepts Shares in the Offer and the Merger is completed, stockholders may be entitled to appraisal rights in connection with the Merger if they do not tender Shares in the Offer and comply with the applicable procedures described under Section 262 of the DGCL. Such stockholder will not be entitled to receive the Offer Price or the Per Share Price (in each case, subject to any required tax withholdings and without interest), but instead will be entitled to receive only those rights provided under Section 262 of the DGCL. Stockholders must properly perfect their right to seek appraisal under the DGCL in connection with the Merger in order to exercise appraisal rights. See Section 17 – “Appraisal Rights.”

William Blair & Company, L.L.C. (“William Blair”), the financial advisor to Castlight, delivered an oral opinion to the Castlight Board, which was subsequently confirmed by delivery of a written opinion dated January 4, 2022, to the effect that, as of that date and based upon and subject to the assumptions, qualifications and limitations stated in its written opinion, the Merger Consideration to be received by the stockholders of Castlight (other than Company Owned Shares and Dissenting Shares) was fair, from a financial point of view, to such holders. The full text of William Blair’s written opinion, which describes the assumptions, qualifications and limitations stated in such written opinion, will be included as an annex to Castlight’s Schedule 14D-9. William Blair’s opinion was provided for the benefit of the Castlight Board in connection with, and for the purpose of, its evaluation of the Offer Price in the Transaction and addresses only the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the holders of Shares of the consideration to be received pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Stockholders are urged to read the full text of that opinion carefully and in its entirety.

The material United States federal income tax consequences for stockholders of Castlight that exchange Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer or the Merger are summarized in Section 5 – “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences.”

Parent and Purchaser have retained D.F. King to be the “Information Agent” and American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC to be the “Depositary and Paying Agent” in connection with the Offer. Parent or Purchaser will pay all charges and expenses of American Stock Transfer & Trust Co., LLC, as Depositary and Paying Agent, and D.F. King, as Information Agent, incurred in connection with the Offer. See Section 18 – “Fees and Expenses.”

THE TENDER OFFER

1. TERMS OF THE OFFER.

Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted, waiver of the Offer Conditions (as defined in Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer”) (including, if the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of such extension or amendment), Purchaser will accept for payment and pay for all Shares validly tendered prior to the Offer Expiration Time and not validly withdrawn as permitted under Section 4 – “Withdrawal Rights” (the date and time of Purchaser’s acceptance of Shares tendered for payment, the “Acceptance Time”). The term “Offer Expiration Time” means one minute after 11:59 P.M., New York City time, on February 16, 2022, unless, in accordance with the Merger Agreement, the Offer has been extended, in which event the term “Offer Expiration Time” means such later time and date to which the Offer has been extended.

The Offer is conditioned upon the satisfaction of the Minimum Tender Condition and the other Offer Conditions set forth in Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer”. Purchaser may, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, terminate the Offer without purchasing any Shares if the Offer Conditions described in Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer” are not satisfied or waived. See Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements – Termination”.

Subject to the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and the provisions of the Merger Agreement, Parent and Purchaser expressly reserve the right to increase the Offer Price and waive any Offer Condition other than the Minimum Tender Condition or to make any other changes in the terms and conditions of the Offer. However, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Purchaser and Parent have agreed that without Castlight’s consent (A) Purchaser shall not decrease the Offer Price and (B) no change may be made to the Offer that (i) changes the form of consideration to be delivered by Purchaser pursuant to the Offer, (ii) decreases the number of Class A Shares or Class B Shares sought to be purchased by Purchaser in the Offer, (iii) imposes conditions or requirements to the Offer in addition to the Offer Conditions, (iv) except as provided in the Merger Agreement, terminates the Offer or accelerates, extends or otherwise changes the Expiration Date, (v) otherwise amends or modifies any of the other terms of the Offer in a manner that adversely affects, or would reasonably be expected to adversely affect, Castlight or any stockholder or in any manner that delays or interferes with, hinders or impairs the consummation of the Offer, or (vi) provide any “subsequent offering period” within the meaning of Rule 14d-11 promulgated under the Exchange Act other than as provided in the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that the Offer Price will be adjusted appropriately to reflect the effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or other distribution of securities convertible into Shares), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other similar change with respect to the Shares or any Company Equity Awards occurring on or after the date of the Merger Agreement and prior to the Effective Time.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Offer may be extended beyond the initial Offer Expiration Time, but in no event will the Offer be extended beyond the earlier of the valid termination of the Merger Agreement and the Termination Date. The Merger Agreement provides that Purchaser will, and Parent will cause Purchaser to, (a) extend the Offer for any period required by any applicable law, any interpretation or position of the SEC, the staff thereof or any rules and regulations of the NYSE applicable to the Offer (including in order to comply with Rule 14e-1(b) promulgated under the Exchange Act in respect of any change in the Offer Price), in each case, as applicable to the Offer, the Schedule 14D-9 or the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with respect to the Offer (together with any exhibits, supplements or amendments thereto, the “Offer Documents”), (b) if, as of any then-scheduled Offer Expiration Time, any Offer Condition (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Offer Expiration Time) is not satisfied and has not been waived, extend the Offer on one or more occasions, for one or more additional periods of up to ten business days each (or such longer period as Castlight and Parent may agree in writing) to permit such Offer Conditions to be satisfied; provided, that if the sole such unsatisfied Offer Condition is the Minimum Tender Condition (other than any Offer Conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Expiration Time), Purchaser shall not be required (and Parent shall not be required to cause Purchaser) to extend the Offer thereafter for more than twenty (20) business days. See Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements – Expiration and Extension of the Offer.”

During any extension of the initial offer period, all Shares previously validly tendered and not validly withdrawn will remain subject to the Offer and subject to withdrawal rights. See Section 4 – “Withdrawal Rights.”

If, subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser makes a material change in the terms of the Offer or the information concerning the Offer, or if it waives a material condition of the Offer, Purchaser will disseminate additional tender offer materials and extend the Offer, if and to the extent required by Rules 14d-4(d), 14d-6(c) and 14e-1 under the Exchange Act, or otherwise. The minimum period during which an Offer must remain open following material changes in the terms of the Offer, other than a change in price, percentage of securities sought, or inclusion of or changes to a dealer’s soliciting fee, will depend upon the facts and circumstances, including the materiality, of the changes. In the SEC’s view, an offer to purchase should remain open for a minimum of five business days from the date the material change is first published, sent or given to stockholders and, if material changes are made

13

with respect to information that approaches the significance of price and share levels, a minimum of ten business days may be required to allow for adequate dissemination and investor response. Accordingly, if prior to the Offer Expiration Time, Purchaser decreases the number of Shares being sought or changes the consideration offered pursuant to the Offer, and if the Offer is scheduled to expire at any time earlier than the tenth business day from the date that notice of such increase or change is first published, sent or given to stockholders, the Offer will be extended at least until the expiration of such tenth business day.

Purchaser expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, not to accept for payment any Shares if, at the expiration of the Offer, any of the Offer Conditions set forth in Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer” have not been satisfied or waived. Under certain circumstances, Parent and Purchaser may terminate the Merger Agreement and the Offer, but Parent and Purchaser are prohibited (without Castlight’s consent) from terminating the Offer prior to any then-scheduled Offer Expiration Time, unless the Merger Agreement has been terminated in accordance with its terms.

Purchaser expressly reserves the right, in its sole discretion, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, to delay acceptance of Shares and to delay payment for Shares in order to comply in whole or in part with any applicable law. See Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer” and Section 16 – “Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals.” The reservation by Purchaser of the right to delay the acceptance of or payment for Shares is subject to the provisions of Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act, which requires Purchaser to pay the consideration offered or to return Shares deposited by or on behalf of tendering stockholders promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the Offer.

Any extension of the Offer, waiver, amendment of the Offer, delay in acceptance for payment or payment or termination of the Offer will be followed, as promptly as practicable, by public announcement thereof, the announcement in the case of an extension to be issued not later than 9:00 A.M., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled Offer Expiration Time in accordance with the public announcement requirements of Rules 14d-4(d), 14d-6(c) and l4e-1(d) under the Exchange Act.

Under no circumstances will interest be paid on the Offer Price for the Shares, regardless of any extension of the Offer or any delay in making payment for the Shares.

As promptly as practicable following the consummation of the Offer and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the Required Approvals Merger Condition and the No Order Merger Condition, Purchaser will complete the Merger without a vote of the stockholders of Castlight to adopt the Merger Agreement and consummate the Merger in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

Castlight has provided Purchaser its list of stockholders with security position listings for the purpose of dissemination of the Offer to holders of Shares. The Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal will be mailed to record holders of Shares whose names appear on Castlight’s stockholder list and will be furnished to brokers, dealers, commercial banks, trust companies or other nominees whose names, or the names of whose nominees, appear on the stockholder list or, if applicable, who are listed as participants in a clearing agency’s security position listing, for subsequent transmittal to beneficial owners of Shares.

2. Acceptance for Payment and Payment for Shares.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if the Offer is extended or amended, the terms and conditions of any such extension or amendment), including the satisfaction or, to the extent permitted, earlier waiver of the Offer Conditions set forth in Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer,” Purchaser will, and Parent will cause Purchaser to, accept for payment and will pay or cause the Depositary and Paying Agent to pay for all Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the Offer Expiration Time pursuant to the Offer. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and the applicable rules of the SEC, Purchaser expressly reserves the right to delay acceptance for payment of, or payment for, Shares, in order to comply with applicable law. See Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer” and Section 16 – “Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals.”

In all cases, payment for Shares tendered and accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will be made only after timely receipt by the Depositary and Paying Agent of (a) certificates representing those Shares or confirmation of the book-entry transfer of those Shares into the Depositary and Paying Agent’s account at The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares,” (b) the Letter of Transmittal (or, with respect to a recognized Medallion Program approved by The Securities Transfer Association, Inc., including the Security Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the New York Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program and the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (each, an “Eligible Institution”), a manually executed facsimile thereof or an Agent’s Message (as defined in Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” below)), properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees and (c) any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal. See Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares.” Accordingly, tendering stockholders may be paid, at different times, depending upon when certificates or book-entry transfer confirmations with respect to their Shares are actually received by the Depositary and Paying Agent.

14

For purposes of the Offer, Purchaser will be deemed to have accepted for payment and thereby purchased Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn if and when Purchaser gives written notice to the Depositary and Paying Agent of its acceptance for payment of those Shares pursuant to the Offer. Payment for Shares accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will be made by deposit of the purchase price therefor with the Depositary and Paying Agent, which will act as agent for the tendering stockholders for purposes of receiving payments from Purchaser and transmitting those payments to the tendering stockholders. If Purchaser extends the Offer, is delayed in its acceptance for payment of Shares or is unable to accept Shares for payment pursuant to the Offer for any reason, then, without prejudice to its rights under the Offer and the Merger Agreement, but subject to Castlight’s rights under the Merger Agreement (other than in a situation in which the Offer is withdrawn or terminated or the Merger Agreement is terminated), the Depositary and Paying Agent may retain tendered Shares on Purchaser’s behalf, and such Shares may not be withdrawn except to the extent that tendering stockholders are entitled to withdrawal rights as described herein under Section 4 – “Withdrawal Rights” and as otherwise required by Rule 14e-1(c) under the Exchange Act. Under no circumstances will interest be paid on the Offer Price for Shares, regardless of any extension of the Offer or any delay in payment for Shares.

If any tendered Shares are not accepted for payment pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Offer for any reason, or if certificates are submitted for more Shares than are tendered, certificates for those unpurchased Shares will be returned (or new certificates for such Shares not tendered will be sent), without expense to the tendering stockholder (or, in the case of Shares tendered by book-entry transfer into the Depositary and Paying Agent’s account at DTC pursuant to the procedures set forth in Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” those Shares will be credited to an account maintained with DTC) promptly following expiration or termination of the Offer.

If, prior to the Offer Expiration Time, Purchaser increases the consideration offered to holders of Shares pursuant to the Offer, that increased consideration will be paid to holders of all Shares that are tendered pursuant to the Offer, whether or not those Shares were tendered prior to that increase in consideration.

3. Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares.

Valid Tenders. Except as set forth below, to validly tender Shares pursuant to the Offer, either (i) a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal (or, with respect to Eligible Institutions, a manually executed facsimile thereof) in accordance with the instructions of the Letter of Transmittal, with any required signature guarantees, or an Agent’s Message (as defined below) in connection with a book-entry delivery of Shares, and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal, must be received by the Depositary and Paying Agent at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase prior to the Offer Expiration Time and either (1) certificates representing Shares tendered must be delivered to the Depositary and Paying Agent or (2) those Shares must be properly delivered pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer described below and a confirmation of that delivery received by the Depositary and Paying Agent (which confirmation must include an Agent’s Message if the tendering stockholder has not delivered a Letter of Transmittal), in each case, prior to the Offer Expiration Time, or (ii) the tendering stockholder must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedure described below. The term “Agent’s Message” means a message, transmitted through electronic means by DTC to, and received by, the Depositary and Paying Agent and forming a part of a Book-Entry Confirmation (as defined below), which states that (x) DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the participant in DTC tendering such Shares which are the subject of that Book-Entry Confirmation that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the Letter of Transmittal and (y) Purchaser may enforce that agreement against the participant. The term “Agent’s Message” also includes any hard copy printout evidencing such message generated by a computer terminal maintained at the Depositary and Paying Agent’s office.

Book-Entry Transfer. The Depositary and Paying Agent has agreed to establish an account with respect to Shares at DTC for purposes of the Offer within two business days after the date of this Offer to Purchase. Any financial institution that is a participant in DTC’s systems may make a book-entry transfer of Shares by causing DTC to transfer those Shares into the Depositary and Paying Agent’s account in accordance with DTC’s procedures for that transfer using DTC’s ATOP system. However, although delivery of Shares may be effected through book-entry transfer, either the Letter of Transmittal (or, with respect to Eligible Institutions, a manually executed facsimile thereof), properly completed and duly executed, together with any required signature guarantees, or an Agent’s Message in lieu of the Letter of Transmittal, and any other required documents, must, in any case, be transmitted to and received by the Depositary and Paying Agent at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase by the Offer Expiration Time, or the tendering stockholder must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedure described below. The confirmation of a book-entry transfer of Shares into the Depositary and Paying Agent’s account at DTC as described above is referred to herein as a “Book-Entry Confirmation”.

15

Delivery of documents to DTC in accordance with DTC’s procedures does not constitute delivery to the Depositary and Paying Agent.

Signature Guarantees and Stock Powers. Except as otherwise provided below, all signatures on a Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed by a financial institution (including most commercial banks, savings and loan associations and brokerage houses) that is a member in good standing of a recognized Medallion Program approved by an Eligible Institution. Signatures on a Letter of Transmittal need not be guaranteed (a) if the Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered owner(s) (which term, for purposes of this section, includes any participant in any of DTC’s systems whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of such Shares) of Shares tendered therewith and such registered owner has not completed the box entitled “Special Payment Instructions” or the box entitled “Special Delivery Instructions” on the Letter of Transmittal or (b) if those Shares are tendered for the account of an Eligible Institution. See Instructions 1 and 5 of the Letter of Transmittal. If the Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered owner(s) of such Shares listed, or if payment is to be made to or certificates for Shares representing Shares not tendered or accepted for payment are to be issued in the name of a person other than the registered owners(s), then the tendered certificates must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case, signed exactly as the name or names of the registered owner(s) or holder(s) appear on the certificates, with the signatures on the certificates or stock powers guaranteed as described above. See Instructions 1 and 5 of the Letter of Transmittal.

If certificates representing Shares are forwarded separately to the Depositary and Paying Agent, a properly completed and duly executed Letter of Transmittal must accompany each delivery of certificates.

Guaranteed Delivery. If a stockholder desires to tender Shares pursuant to the Offer and the Share Certificates evidencing such stockholder’s Shares are not immediately available or such stockholder cannot deliver the Share Certificates and all other required documents to the Depositary prior to the Expiration Date, or such stockholder cannot complete the procedure for delivery by book-entry transfer on a timely basis, such Shares may nevertheless be tendered; provided that all of the following conditions are satisfied:

i.such tender is made by or through an Eligible Institution;

ii.a properly completed and duly executed “Notice of Guaranteed Delivery,” substantially in the form made available by Purchaser, is received prior to the Expiration Date by the Depositary as provided below; and

iii.if applicable, the Share Certificates (or a Book-Entry Confirmation) evidencing all tendered Shares, in proper form for transfer, in each case together with the Letter of Transmittal (or a manually signed facsimile thereof), properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees (or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent’s Message), and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal are received by the Depositary within two trading days after the date of execution of such Notice of Guaranteed Delivery. As used in this Offer to Purchase, “trading day” means any day on which NYSE is open for business.

The Notice of Guaranteed Delivery may be delivered by overnight courier or transmitted by facsimile transmission or mailed to the Depositary and must include a guarantee by an Eligible Institution in the form set forth in the form of Notice of Guaranteed Delivery made available by Purchaser. In the case of Shares held through the Book-Entry Transfer Facility, the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery must be delivered to the Depositary by a participant by means of the confirmation system of the Book-Entry Transfer Facility.

Shares tendered by a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery will not be deemed “received” for the purpose of satisfying the Minimum Condition unless and until Shares underlying such Notice of Guaranteed Delivery are delivered to the Depositary at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase.

The method of delivery of Shares, the Letter of Transmittal and all other required documents, including delivery through DTC, is at the election and risk of the tendering stockholder. Delivery of all those documents will be deemed made, and risk of loss of the certificate representing Shares will pass, only when actually received by the Depositary and Paying Agent (including, in the case of a book-entry transfer, by Book-Entry Confirmation). If the delivery is by mail, it is recommended that all those documents be sent by properly insured registered mail with return receipt requested. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to ensure timely delivery prior to the Offer Expiration Time.

The tender of Shares (pursuant to any one of the procedures described above) will constitute the tendering stockholder’s acceptance of the Offer, as well as the tendering stockholder’s representation and warranty that such stockholder has the full power and authority to tender, sell, transfer and assign such Shares tendered, as specified in the Letter of Transmittal (and any and all other Shares or other securities issued or issuable in respect of such Shares), and that when Purchaser accepts such Shares for payment, it will acquire good and unencumbered title, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances and not subject to any adverse claims. Purchaser’s acceptance for payment of Shares (tendered pursuant to one of the procedures described above) will constitute a binding agreement between the tendering stockholder and Purchaser upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

16

Other Requirements. Notwithstanding any provision of this Offer to Purchase, Purchaser will pay for Shares pursuant to the Offer only after timely receipt by the Depositary and Paying Agent of (a) certificates for (or a timely Book-Entry Confirmation with respect to) those Shares, (b) the Letter of Transmittal (or, with respect to Eligible Institutions, a manually executed facsimile thereof), properly completed and duly executed, with any required signature guarantees (or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent’s Message in lieu of the Letter of Transmittal) and (c) any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal. Under no circumstances will interest be paid by Purchaser on the purchase price of Shares, regardless of any extension of the Offer or any delay in making that payment.

Binding Agreement. The acceptance for payment by Purchaser of Shares tendered pursuant to one of the procedures described above will constitute a binding agreement between the tendering stockholder and Purchaser upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

Determination of Validity. All questions as to validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt) of the surrender of any certificate for Shares hereunder, including questions as to the proper completion or execution of any Letter of Transmittal or other required documents and as to the proper form for transfer of any certificates for Shares, will be determined by Purchaser (which may delegate power in whole or in part to the Depositary and Paying Agent) in its sole and absolute discretion which determination will be final and binding. Purchaser reserves the absolute right to reject any and all tenders determined by it not to be in proper form or the acceptance for payment of or payment for which may be unlawful. Purchaser also reserves the absolute right to waive any defect or irregularity in the surrender of any Shares or certificate(s) for Shares whether or not similar defects or irregularities are waived in the case of any other stockholder. A surrender will not be deemed to have been validly made until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived. None of Parent, Purchaser or any of their respective affiliates or assigns, the Depositary and Paying Agent, the Information Agent or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in tenders or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification. Purchaser’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer (including the Letter of Transmittal and the Instructions thereto and any other documents related to the Offer) will be final and binding.

Appointment. By executing and delivering a Letter of Transmittal as set forth above (or, in the case of a book-entry transfer, by delivery of an Agent’s Message in lieu of a Letter of Transmittal), the tendering stockholder irrevocably appoints designees of Purchaser as that stockholder’s true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact and proxies, each with full power of substitution and re-substitution, to the full extent of that stockholder’s rights with respect to such Shares tendered by that stockholder and accepted for payment by Purchaser and with respect to any and all other Shares or other securities issued or issuable in respect of those Shares on or after Acceptance Time. On and following the Offer Acceptance Time, such proxies and powers of attorney will be irrevocable and deemed to be coupled with an interest in the tendered Shares. Such appointment is effective when, and only to the extent that, Purchaser accepts for payment Shares tendered by the stockholder as provided herein. Upon the effectiveness of the appointment, without further action, all prior powers of attorney, proxies and consents given by that stockholder will be revoked, and no subsequent powers of attorney, proxies and consents may be given (and, if given, will not be deemed effective). Upon the effectiveness of the appointment at the Offer Acceptance Time, Purchaser’s designees will, with respect to such Shares or other securities and rights for which the appointment is effective, be empowered to exercise all voting and other rights of that stockholder as they, in their sole discretion, may deem proper at any annual, special, adjourned or postponed meeting of Castlight’s stockholders, by written consent in lieu of any such meeting or otherwise. Purchaser reserves the right to require that, in order for Shares to be deemed validly tendered, immediately upon Purchaser’s payment for those Shares, Purchaser must be able to exercise full voting, consent and other rights to the extent permitted under applicable law with respect to those Shares, including voting at any meeting of stockholders or executing a written consent concerning any matter.

Backup Withholding. Under the United States federal income tax backup withholding rules, the Depositary and Paying Agent (as the payor) may be required to withhold and pay over to the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) a portion (currently, 24%) of the amount of any payments made by Purchaser to a stockholder pursuant to the Offer, unless the stockholder provides his or her taxpayer identification number (“TIN”) and certifies that such stockholder is not subject to backup withholding by completing the IRS Form W-9 included in the Letter of Transmittal, or otherwise establishes a valid exemption from backup withholding to the satisfaction of the Depositary and Paying Agent. If a United States Holder (as defined in Section 5 – “Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences”) does not provide its correct TIN or fails to provide the certifications described above, the IRS may impose a penalty on the stockholder and payment of cash to the stockholder pursuant to the Offer may be subject to backup withholding. All United States Holders surrendering Shares pursuant to the Offer should complete and sign the IRS Form W-9 included in the Letter of Transmittal to provide the information necessary to avoid backup withholding. Certain stockholders (including, among others, corporations and certain foreign persons) are exempt from backup withholding and payments to such persons will not be subject to backup withholding provided that a valid exemption is established. Each non-United States Holder must submit an appropriate properly completed executed original IRS Form W-8 (a copy of which may be obtained from the IRS website at http://www.irs.gov) certifying, under penalties of perjury, to such non-United States Holder’s foreign status in order to establish an exemption from backup withholding. See Instruction 9 of the Letter of Transmittal. If backup withholding applies and results in an overpayment of tax, a refund can generally be obtained by the stockholder timely filing a U.S. federal income tax return.

No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders will be accepted.

17

4. Withdrawal Rights.

A stockholder may withdraw Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer at any time on or prior to the Offer Expiration Time and, if not previously accepted, at any time after March 20, 2022, which is the date that is 60 days after the date of the commencement of the Offer, pursuant to SEC regulations, but only in accordance with the procedures described in this Section 4; otherwise, the tender of Shares pursuant to the Offer is irrevocable.

For a withdrawal of Shares to be effective, a written or, with respect to Eligible Institutions, facsimile transmission, notice of withdrawal with respect to such Shares must be timely received by the Depositary and Paying Agent at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of this Offer to Purchase. Any notice of withdrawal must specify the name of the person having tendered such Shares to be withdrawn, the number of Shares to be withdrawn and the name of the registered holder of such Shares to be withdrawn, if different from that of the person who tendered those Shares. The signature(s) on the notice of withdrawal must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution, unless those Shares have been tendered for the account of any Eligible Institution. If Shares have been tendered pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer as set forth in Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares,” any notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at DTC to be credited with the withdrawn Shares. If certificates representing such Shares to be withdrawn have been delivered or otherwise identified to the Depositary and Paying Agent, the name of the registered owner and the serial numbers shown on those certificates must also be furnished to the Depositary and Paying Agent prior to the physical release of those certificates. If a stockholder tenders Shares by giving instructions to a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, the stockholder must instruct the broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee to arrange for the withdrawal of those Shares.

If Purchaser extends the Offer, is delayed in its acceptance for payment of Shares or is unable to accept for payment Shares pursuant to the Offer for any reason, then, without prejudice to Purchaser’s rights under this Offer, the Depositary and Paying Agent may nevertheless, on behalf of Purchaser, retain tendered Shares, and those Shares may not be withdrawn except to the extent that tendering stockholders are entitled to withdrawal rights as described herein.

Withdrawals of tenders of Shares may not be rescinded, and any Shares validly withdrawn will be deemed not to have been validly tendered for purposes of the Offer. However, withdrawn Shares may be retendered by following one of the procedures for tendering shares described in Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” at any time prior to the Offer Expiration Time.

All questions as to the form and validity (including time of receipt) of any notice of withdrawal will be determined by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion (which may delegate power in whole or in part to the Depositary and Paying Agent), which determination will be final and binding. Purchaser also reserves the absolute right to waive any defect or irregularity in the notice of withdrawal of any particular stockholder whether or not similar defects or irregularities are waived in the case of any other stockholder. No withdrawal of Shares will be deemed to have been properly made until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived. None of Parent, Purchaser or any of their respective affiliates or assigns, the Depositary and Paying Agent, the Information Agent or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in any notice of withdrawal or incur any liability for failure to give that notification.

5. Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences.

The following is a summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences to United States Holders (as defined below) and non-United States Holders (as defined below) that exchange Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer or the Merger. This summary is general in nature and does not discuss all aspects of United States federal income taxation that may be relevant to a holder of Shares in light of its particular circumstances. In addition, this summary does not describe any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-United States jurisdiction or under any applicable tax treaty or any tax consequences (e.g. estate or gift tax) other than United States federal income taxation. This summary deals only with Shares held as capital assets (within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (as defined below)), and does not address tax considerations applicable to any holder of Shares that may be subject to special treatment under the United States federal income tax laws, including, without limitation:

a bank or other financial institution;

a tax-exempt entity;

a retirement plan or other tax-deferred account;

a partnership or other pass-through entity (or an investor in a partnership or other pass-through entity);

an insurance company;

a mutual fund;

18

a dealer or broker in stocks and securities, or currencies;

a trader in securities that elects mark-to-market treatment;

a regulated investment company;

a real estate investment trust;

a person who acquired Shares through the exercise of employee stock options, or in other compensatory transactions or who holds Shares that are subject to vesting restrictions;

a United States Holder (as defined below) that has a functional currency other than the United States dollar;

a corporation that accumulates earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

a government organization;

a person that holds Shares as part of a hedge, straddle, constructive sale, conversion or other integrated or risk reduction transaction;

a person holding Shares that are, or were in the past, subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of Section 83 of the Code (as defined below));

a person that purchases or sells Shares as part of a wash sale for tax purposes;

persons who own or owned (actually or constructively) more than 5% of our Shares (by vote or value) at any time during the five year period ending on the date of sale (or, if applicable, the Merger);

a person subject to the alternative minimum tax provisions of the Code (as defined below);

a “controlled foreign corporation”;

a “passive foreign investment company”;

a United States expatriate and certain former citizens or long-term residents of the United States;

any person who owns actually or constructively owns an equity interest in Parent or the Surviving Corporation;

a holder of Shares that is required to accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income with respect to the Shares as a result of that income being recognized on an applicable financial statement; or

any holder of Shares that exercises its appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL.

This summary does not address any aspect of the U.S. Medicare tax, federal estate and gift tax consequences, FATCA (by which we mean Section 1471 through 1474 of the Code, the Treasury Regulations and administrative guidance thereunder) and does not describe any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. jurisdiction or consider any aspects of United States federal tax law other than income taxation.

If a partnership (including any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes) holds Shares, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend upon the status of the partner and the activities of the partner and the partnership. Partners in a partnership holding Shares should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of exchanging the Shares pursuant to the Offer or pursuant to the Merger.

This summary is based on the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code, and administrative rulings and judicial decisions, all as in effect as of the date of this Offer to Purchase, and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations at any time, with possible retroactive effect. No opinion or ruling has been or will be sought regarding any tax consequences relating to the matters discussed herein. Consequently, no assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of those discussed below.

The discussion set out herein is intended only as a summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences to a holder of Shares and does not discuss all aspects of United States federal income taxation that may be relevant to particular holders of Shares. Holders of Shares should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the specific tax consequences to them in connection with the Offer and the Merger in light of their own particular circumstances, including federal estate, gift and other non-income tax consequences, and tax consequences under state, local or non-United States tax laws.

19

United States Holders.

For purposes of this discussion, the term “United States Holder” means a beneficial owner of Shares that is, for United States federal income tax purposes:

an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

a corporation (or any other entity or arrangement treated as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes) organized in or under the laws of the United States or any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

an estate, the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source; or

a trust if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust, and one or more United States persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (ii) the trust has validly elected to be treated as a “United States person” under applicable Treasury regulations.

Payments with Respect to Shares.

The exchange of Shares for cash pursuant to the Offer or pursuant to the Merger will be a taxable transaction for United States federal income tax purposes, and a United States Holder who receives cash for Shares pursuant to the Offer or the Merger will recognize gain or loss, if any, equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the holder’s adjusted tax basis in such Shares exchanged therefor. A United States Holder’s adjusted tax basis in Shares will generally be equal to the cost of such Shares to the United States Holder, reduced (but not below zero) by any previous returns of capital. Gain or loss will be determined separately for each block of Shares (i.e., Shares acquired at the same cost in a single transaction). Such gain or loss will generally be capital gain or loss, and will generally be long-term capital gain or loss if such United States Holder has held its Shares for more than one year at the time of the exchange. Long-term capital gain recognized by certain non-corporate holders is generally eligible for reduced rates of taxation. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding.

Proceeds from the exchange of Shares pursuant to the Offer or pursuant to the Merger generally are subject to information reporting and may be subject to backup withholding tax at the applicable rate (currently, 24%) unless the United States Holder provides a valid TIN and complies with certain certification procedures (generally, by providing a properly completed IRS Form W-9) or otherwise establishes an exemption from backup withholding tax. Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding tax rules from a payment to a United States Holder will be allowed as a credit against that holder’s United States federal income tax liability and may entitle the holder to a refund, provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Each United States Holder should complete and sign the IRS Form W-9, which will be included with the Letter of Transmittal to be returned to the Depositary and Paying Agent, to provide the information and certification necessary to avoid backup withholding, unless an exemption applies and is established in a manner satisfactory to the Depositary and Paying Agent. See Section 3 – “Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares.” Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding tax rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against the United States Holder’s United States federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Non-United States Holders.

The following is a summary of the material United States federal income tax consequences that will apply to you if you are a non-United States Holder of Shares. The term “non-United States Holder” means a beneficial owner of Shares that is neither a United States Holder nor a partnership (or any other entity or arrangement treated as a partnership for United States federal income tax purposes).

Payments with Respect to Shares.

Subject to the discussion under “Backup Withholding Tax” below, any gain realized by a non-United States Holder with respect to Shares exchanged for cash pursuant to the Offer or the Merger generally will be exempt from United States federal income tax unless:

such non-United States Holder is an individual who was present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the exchange and certain other conditions are met;

the gain is effectively connected with a trade or business of such non-United States Holder in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by such non-United States Holder in the United States); or

the Shares constitute a United States real property interest by reason of Castlight’s status as a United States real property holding corporation (“USRPHC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

20

A non-United States Holder described in the first bullet point above will be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% (or such lower rate as specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on the amount of such gain, which generally may be offset by U.S. source capital losses.

A non-United States Holder whose gain is described in the second bullet point above or, subject to the exceptions described in the next paragraph, the third bullet point above, generally will be taxed on a net income basis at the rates and in the manner generally applicable to United States persons unless an applicable income tax treaty provides otherwise. If the non-United States Holder is a corporation, whose gain is described in the second bullet point above, then such gain would also be included in its effectively connected earnings and profits (as adjusted for certain items), which may be subject to a branch profits tax (at a 30% rate or such lower rate as specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on its effectively connected earnings and profits (as adjusted for certain items), which will include such gain.

Generally, a corporation is a USRPHC if the fair market value of its United States real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests and its other assets used or held for use in a trade or business. Castlight believes that it is not, and does not anticipate becoming, a USRPHC before the date of sale (or, if applicable, the date of the Merger) for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Even if Castlight were treated as a USRPHC, such treatment will not cause gain realized by a non-United States Holder on a disposition of Shares to be subject to U.S. federal income tax so long as (1) the non-United States Holder owned, directly, indirectly and constructively, no more than 5% of the Shares at all times within the shorter of (i) the five-year period preceding the disposition or (ii) the non-United States Holder’s holding period and (2) the Shares are regularly traded on an established securities market.

Non-U.S. Holders should consult their tax advisors with respect to the application of the foregoing rules to their receipt of cash for Shares pursuant to the Offer or the Merger.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding.

Proceeds from the disposition of Shares pursuant to the Offer or pursuant to the Merger generally are subject to information reporting. A non-United States Holder may be subject to backup withholding tax with respect to the proceeds from the disposition of Shares pursuant to the Offer or pursuant to the Merger unless the non-United States Holder certifies under penalties of perjury on an applicable IRS Form W-8 that such non-United States Holder is not a United States person, or such non-United States Holder otherwise establishes an exemption in a manner satisfactory to the Depositary and Paying Agent. Each non-United States Holder should complete, sign and provide to the Depositary and Paying Agent an applicable IRS Form W-8 to provide the information and certification necessary to avoid backup withholding, unless an exemption applies and is established in a manner satisfactory to the Depositary and Paying Agent.

Any amounts withheld under the backup withholding tax rules will be allowed as a refund or a credit against the non-United States Holder’s United States federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

THE FOREGOING SUMMARY DOES NOT DISCUSS ALL ASPECTS OF UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION THAT MAY BE RELEVANT TO PARTICULAR STOCKHOLDERS. YOU ARE URGED TO CONSULT YOUR TAX ADVISOR REGARDING THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES TO YOU OF TENDERING SHARES FOR CASH IN THE OFFER OR EXCHANGING SHARES FOR CASH PURSUANT TO THE MERGER IN LIGHT OF YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES, INCLUDING THE APPLICATION AND EFFECT OF ANY FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, NON-UNITED STATES. OR OTHER LAWS.

9. Source and Amount of Funds.

Purchaser estimates that it will need up to approximately $338 million to purchase all of the issued and outstanding Shares in the Offer, to provide funding for the consideration to be paid in the Merger and to pay related fees and expenses at the Closing of the Transactions (the “Transaction Uses”). CD&R Fund XI has provided to Purchaser an equity commitment equal to $338 million (the “Equity Financing”). The proceeds of the Equity Financing, together with Parent and Castlight’s available cash, will be sufficient to pay the Offer Price for all Shares tendered in the Offer and the other Transaction Uses. Funding of the Equity Financing (as defined below) is subject to the satisfaction of various customary conditions set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter. The Offer and the Merger are not conditioned upon Parent’s or Purchaser’s ability to finance the purchase of Shares pursuant to the Offer and pay for the Shares acquired in the Merger.

We do not think that our financial condition is relevant to your decision whether to tender Shares and accept the Offer because (i) the consideration offered in the Offer consists solely of cash, (ii) the Offer is being made for all issued and outstanding Shares, (iii) if we consummate the Offer, subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain conditions, we have agreed to acquire all remaining Shares for the same cash price in the Merger, (iv) the Offer is not subject to any financing condition, and (v) we have all of the financial resources, including committed equity financing, sufficient to finance the Offer and the Merger.

Equity Financing.

Parent has received the Commitment Letter dated as of January 4, 2022 (the “Equity Commitment Letter”), pursuant to which CD&R Fund XI has committed to contribute, subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Commitment Letter, to Parent an amount equal to $338 million (subject to adjustment as set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter) in cash for the purpose of funding the Transaction Uses pursuant to and in accordance with the Merger Agreement (such committed equity financing, the “Equity Financing”). The funding of the Equity Financing is subject to (i) the aggregate Offer Acceptance Consideration payable at the Offer Acceptance Time pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (ii) the aggregate consideration to which the holders of Company Common Stock become entitled pursuant to the Merger Agreement and (iii) the aggregate consideration which holders of Company Equity Awards become entitled pursuant to the Merger Agreement (together with such amounts in clauses (i) and (ii) the, “Merger Consideration”) (see Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements”). CD&R Fund XI’s equity commitment is subject to reduction in the event Purchaser does not require all of the Equity Financing in order to satisfy Purchaser’s obligations.

Castlight is a third party beneficiary of the Equity Commitment Letter for the limited purposes provided in the Equity Commitment Letter, which are limited to, subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, seeking specific performance of Parent’s right to cause the Equity Financing to be funded as, and only to the extent provided in, the Equity Commitment Letter.

The obligation of CD&R Fund XI to fund the Equity Financing will terminate upon the earliest of (i) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, (ii) the consummation of the Closing and the payment by Parent of the Required Amounts (as defined in the Merger Agreement) in accordance with the Merger Agreement or (iii) the assertion in writing or filing, directly or indirectly of a claim or legal proceeding (in either case, whether at law or in equity, in tort, contract or otherwise) by Castlight or any of its affiliates or any of their respective Representatives (as defined below), in each case, by or on behalf of, and at the direction of, Castlight under or in respect of the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated by the Equity Commitment Letter or the Merger Agreement (including in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to have been made in connection the Equity Commitment Letter or the Merger Agreement) against Purchaser, Parent, CD&R Fund XI or Investor/Parent Affiliate (as defined in the Equity Commitment Letter), other than any claim or legal proceeding by Castlight (i) against CD&R Fund XI to enforce its obligation to fund the Equity Financing in accordance with the terms of the Equity Commitment Letter or (ii) against Parent or Purchaser under the Merger Agreement in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions thereof. “Representatives” means any members, managers, officers, directors, agents, attorneys or other representatives of any of the foregoing or any of their respective successors or assigns.

Blue Cross of California, a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of Anthem, Inc. (“Blue Cross of CA”), entered into an Investment Agreement with an affiliate of Parent in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, pursuant to which Blue Cross of CA agreed to invest at Closing, subject to the terms and conditions of the Investment Agreement (including the closing of the transaction), $50,000,000 in such affiliate of Parent.

10. Background of the Offer; Past Contacts or Negotiations with Castlight.

Background of the Merger Agreement

The following is a description of significant contacts between representatives of Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC (“CD&R”), Parent and Purchaser, on the one hand, and representatives of Castlight, on the other hand, that resulted in the execution of the Merger Agreement and commencement of the Offer. The discussion below covers only the key events and does not attempt to describe every communication among the parties. For a review of Castlight’s activities relating to the contacts leading to the Merger Agreement, please refer to the Schedule 14D-9, which will be filed by Castlight with the SEC and is being mailed to Castlight’s stockholders concurrently with this Offer to Purchase.

On May 5, 2021, Purchaser and CD&R were contacted by Maeve O’Meara, the Chief Executive Officer of Castlight, and representatives of William Blair & Company L.L.C., financial advisor to Castlight, (“William Blair”) to inquire whether Purchaser might be interested in pursuing a potential strategic transaction involving Castlight and Purchaser. On May 11, 2021, CD&R and Castlight entered into a confidentiality agreement with Castlight with respect to a potential strategic transaction involving Castlight, which confidentiality agreement contained a “standstill” which generally prohibited CD&R from making public proposals to acquire Castlight or taking similar actions (but permitted such parties to make private, non-public proposals to Ms. O’Meara or the Board) and a “fallaway” which provided that the standstill provision would no longer apply if, among other things, Castlight entered into an acquisition agreement with another party.

On May 17, 2021, members of Castlight’s senior management and representatives of William Blair held a management meeting with Purchaser and CD&R. During such meeting, members of Castlight’s senior management made a presentation regarding Castlight’s business and prospects, and responded to questions.

On May 21, 2021, Purchaser and CD&R received access to an electronic data room containing certain confidential information of Castlight including, among other things, a confidential management presentation and five-year financial forecast prepared by Castlight’s management for Castlight as a standalone company (the “Q2 2021 Projections”). Also in June 2021, Purchaser and CD&R engaged in detailed financial and business due diligence with respect to Castlight.

On June 1, 2021, Purchaser and CD&R received letters from representatives of William Blair, inviting Purchaser and CD&R to submit proposals to acquire Castlight by June 24, 2021. Also on July 9, 2021, representatives of Purchaser and CD&R met with members of Castlight’s senior management and representatives of William Blair for a management presentation.

On June 24, 2021, Purchaser sent Castlight a non-binding preliminary indication of interest to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Castlight at $2.50 to $2.75 per share.

On July 9, 2021, members of Castlight’s senior management and representatives of William Blair held a management meeting with Purchaser and CD&R. During such meeting, members of Castlight’s senior management made a presentation regarding Castlight’s business and prospects, and responded to questions.

On July 9, 2021, representatives of Purchaser and CD&R met with members of Castlight management for detailed due diligence meetings.

On July 12, 2021, Purchaser received a letter from William Blair that encouraged Purchaser to submit a revised proposal to acquire Castlight on or prior to July 29, 2021. The revised bid letter requested each party to submit a markup of a draft form of merger agreement, which was made available to Purchaser.

On July 27, 2021, a representative of CD&R informed a representative of William Blair that Purchaser would not be submitting a revised proposal for an acquisition of Castlight. The representative of CD&R indicated that while Purchaser and CD&R believed there was a strong strategic fit between Purchaser and Castlight, they had significant concerns about the future revenue trajectory of Castlight and the pro forma combined business, and were unwilling to proceed with a proposal at the price range indicated in Purchaser’s preliminary indication of interest.

On July 28, 2021, the chief executive officer of Purchaser had a discussion with Ms. O’Meara in which he reiterated the reasons that Purchaser would not be submitting a revised proposal. During this discussion, Ms. O’Meara suggested to the chief executive officer of Purchaser that she believed a compelling product offering could be developed based on the combined capabilities of Castlight and Purchaser, and that Anthem could be interested in a commercial agreement based on such a product offering, which would address the concerns expressed by a representative of CD&R.

On August 1, 2021, Ms. O’Meara spoke with a representative of CD&R to discuss the reasons that caused Purchaser to decline to submit a revised proposal. She reiterated that, as she had suggested to the chief executive officer of Purchaser on July 28, 2021, these

25

reasons could be addressed through a commercial agreement centered on a joint product offering based on Purchaser and Castlight’s combined capabilities, and discussed the potential benefits of such an agreement.

On August 8, 2021, a representative of CD&R had a telephone call with Ms. O’Meara and again discussed her suggestion that Purchaser’s reasons that caused Purchaser to decline to submit a revised proposal could be addressed through a commercial agreement centered on a joint product offering based on Purchaser and Castlight’s combined capabilities, and outlined a possible structure for such an arrangement. During this discussion, a representative of CD&R also suggested that it would be helpful to Purchaser’s ability to proceed towards a transaction if Anthem also was able to make an equity investment in the combined company.

In addition, on August 11, 2021, a representative of CD&R spoke with representatives of William Blair and suggested that Purchaser would be interested in pursuing an acquisition of Castlight if, in connection with the acquisition, Anthem were to agree to an expanded commercial relationship with Castlight and Purchaser as suggested by Ms. O’Meara in the August 8, 2021 discussion, and if Anthem agreed to make an equity investment in the combined business.

On August 27, 2021, a representative of CD&R met with Ms. O’Meara over lunch to discuss the proposal for an expanded commercial relationship with Anthem.

On October 4, 2021, representatives of Castlight, Anthem, Purchaser and CD&R met to resume their discussions regarding the potential for a transaction involving a combined Castlight/Purchaser service offering to Anthem, and began to discuss potential terms of such an arrangement.

Beginning on October 11, 2021, representatives of Purchaser and CD&R met with members of Castlight senior management for due diligence meetings, at which time they discussed Castlight’s business, and provided Purchaser with additional due diligence information.

On October 21, 2021, Purchaser submitted a revised non-binding proposal to Castlight to acquire all of the outstanding shares of Castlight at a price of $2.00 to $2.20 per share in cash (the “October 21 Proposal”), which letter indicated that CD&R will provide equity financing to Purchaser to fund the transaction, and further indicated that the proposal was contingent on a securing a partnership with Anthem that would leverage a combined Vera/Castlight offering.

On October 23, 2021, at the direction of Castlight, Purchaser received from representatives of William Blair a revised financial forecast for Castlight as a standalone company through 2026 (the “Q4 2021 Projections”), which was prepared by Castlight’s senior management and reflected, among other things, discussions between Castlight and Anthem after the preparation of the Q2 2021 Projections regarding the economic terms of a potential renewal of the Anthem Contract. Specifically, when compared to the Q2 2021 Projections, the Q4 2021 Projections assumed lower projected revenues from Anthem and a longer sales cycle for contracts with new health plan customers.

On October 27 and 28, 2021, Purchaser sent a detailed due diligence request lists with respect to legal, compliance, human resources, financial and other due diligence matters, following which Purchaser and its advisors met with Castlight’s senior management to discuss various due diligence matters.

On November 1, 2022, representatives of Purchaser and CD&R attended a meeting to discuss potential arrangements that could be proposed to Anthem.

On November 3, 2021, Kirkland & Ellis LLP, Purchaser’s legal counsel (“Kirkland”), met with representatives of Castlight senior management and representatives of Fenwick & West LLP, Castlight’s legal counsel (“Fenwick & West”), to discuss legal due diligence topics.

On November 4, 2021, representatives of Castlight, Anthem, Purchaser and CD&R met in person at Anthem’s offices in Indianapolis, Indiana to discuss potential terms for a commercial agreement for the joint Primary Care Plus product.

On November 7, 2021, Purchaser received from Castlight a draft non-binding term sheet for the commercial relationship under discussion (the “Anthem Term Sheet”), which was intended to reflect the discussions between the parties to date.

In addition, on November 8, 2021, representatives of Fenwick & West and Kirkland discussed potential structures for an acquisition of Castlight by Purchaser and the process and approach for drafting a merger agreement, if Purchaser were to proceed with a transaction.

On November 29, 2021, representatives of Castlight, Anthem, Purchaser and CD&R met and further discussed proposed terms of the potential commercial relationship.

On December 5, 2021, Anthem provided Castlight and Purchaser with a revised draft of the Anthem Term Sheet. Anthem, Purchaser, CD&R and Castlight continued to negotiate the Anthem Term Sheet until January 3, 2022.

26

On December 7, 2021, a representative of CD&R had a telephone call with Ms. O’Meara, at which time he confirmed that the most recent draft of the Anthem Term Sheet was largely acceptable to Purchaser. Later on December 7, the representative of CD&R sent an email to Ms. O’Meara with a revised proposal (the “December 7 Proposal”) for Purchaser to acquire Castlight for $2.00 per share in cash, subject to Anthem’s execution of the Anthem Term Sheet and Anthem’s agreement to make an equity investment in Purchaser.

On December 14, 2021, representatives of CD&R submitted a revised non-binding proposal to acquire Castlight, with an increased price of $2.05 per share (the “December 14 Proposal”), subject the execution of the Anthem Term Sheet by Anthem, Purchaser and Castlight.

On December 16, 2021, Kirkland delivered to Fenwick & West an initial draft of the Merger Agreement. The draft provided for, among other things, a termination fee payable by Castlight under certain customary circumstances (the “Termination Fee”) equal to 4.0% of the equity value of Castlight, customary restrictions on soliciting other proposals from third parties, a “fiduciary out” that would permit the Board to negotiate with a third party that submits an unsolicited acquisition proposal, and to terminate the merger agreement to accept a superior proposal after providing Purchaser with an opportunity to match such superior proposal and paying the Termination Fee. In addition, the draft Merger Agreement did not require that Purchaser extend the tender offer if less than the required majority of the shares were tendered during the initial tender offer period.

On December 17, certain business leads of Purchaser met with Castlight to discuss Castlight product offerings and potential opportunities in connection with a combination with Purchaser.

On December 21, 2021, Kirkland received a revised draft of the Merger Agreement from Fenwick & West which proposed, among other things, a Termination Fee equal to 3.0% of the equity value of Castlight, a requirement that Purchaser extend the tender offer until an agreed outside date if less than the required majority of the shares were tendered during the initial tender offer period, and a requirement that Purchaser specifically enforce the terms of the Equity Commitment Letter in the event CD&R breached its obligations under the Equity Commitment Letter.

On December 23, 2021, Kirkland delivered to Fenwick & West initial drafts of the Equity Commitment Letter and Tender and Support Agreement.

On December 24, 2021, Kirkland received a revised draft of the Equity Commitment Letter from Fenwick & West. Later that same day, Kirkland delivered to Fenwick & West a revised draft of the Merger Agreement, which proposed, among other things, a Termination Fee equal to 3.8% of the equity value of Castlight and that Purchaser would be required to extend the tender offer for up to a total of ten business days if less than the required majority of the shares were tendered during the initial tender offer period.

Representatives of Fenwick & West and Kirkland negotiated the final terms of Merger Agreement, Equity Commitment Letter, Tender and Support Agreement until January 2, 2022, which final terms included, among other things, a Termination Fee equal to 3.6% of the equity value of Castlight and that Purchaser would be required to extend the tender offer for up to a total of twenty business days if less than the required majority of the shares were tendered during the initial tender offer period.

On January 4, 2022, Castlight, Anthem, Purchaser and CD&R executed the Anthem Term Sheet, and Purchaser informed Castlight that Purchaser, CD&R and Anthem had reached final agreement regarding, and were prepared to sign, an investment agreement memorializing Anthem’s commitment to make an equity investment in Purchaser in connection with the acquisition.

Each Stock Option that has an Option Exercise Price that is less than the Merger Consideration that is not a Vested In-the-Money Stock Option (each such Stock Option (or any part thereof), an “Unvested In-the-Money Stock Option”) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash replacement amount, subject to the same vesting conditions as applied to the Unvested In-the-Money Stock Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, equal to the product of (A) the excess of the Merger Consideration over the Option Exercise Price of such Unvested In-the-Money Stock Option multiplied by (B) the number of Shares subject to such Unvested In-the-Money Stock Option, subject to any required tax withholdings. At or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Stock Option that has an Option Exercise Price that is equal to or greater than the Merger Consideration, whether or not exercisable or vested, shall be cancelled without payment.

At or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each award of restricted stock units with respect to Shares subject to vesting conditions based solely on continued employment or service (each, a “Company RSU”) that is vested and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each (or any part thereof), a “Vested Company RSU”) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to (A) the number of Shares subject to such Vested Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by (B) the Merger Consideration, payable by the Surviving Corporation to the holder of such award at or reasonably promptly after the Effective Time, but no later than three (3) business days after the Effective Time. Each Company RSU that is not a Vested Company RSU (each such Company RSU (or any part thereof), an “Unvested Company RSU”) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash replacement amount, subject to the same vesting conditions as applied to the Unvested Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, equal to the product of (A) the Merger Consideration by (B) the number of Shares subject to such Unvested Company RSU, subject to any required tax withholdings. As of immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company RSU (defined below) that is then-outstanding and unvested and held by a non-employee director of the Company shall become immediately vested in full.

Each award of restricted stock units with respect to Shares subject to performance-based vesting conditions (each, a “Company PSU”) will be deemed earned at 75% achievement. At or immediately prior to the Effective Time, each Company PSU that is vested and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (each (or any part thereof), a “Vested Company PSU”) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to (A) the Merger Consideration, multiplied by (B) the total number of Shares subject to such Vested Company PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, payable by the Surviving Corporation to the holder of such award at or reasonably promptly after the Effective Time, but no later than three (3) business days after the Effective Time. Each Company PSU that is not a Vested Company PSU (each such Company PSU (or any part thereof), an “Unvested Company PSU”) will be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash replacement amount, subject to the same vesting conditions as applied to the Unvested Company PSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, equal to the product of (A) the Merger Consideration by (B) the number of Shares subject to such Unvested Company PSU, subject to any required tax withholdings.

Treatment of Purchase Rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

The Merger Agreement generally provides that no new offering periods or purchase periods will begin under the Castlight Health, Inc. 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) after January 4, 2022, and no individual will be allowed to begin participating in the ESPP after January 4, 2022. After January 4, 2022, each ESPP participant will not be allowed to increase his or her payroll contribution rate from the rate in effect as of January 4, 2022, or make separate non-payroll contributions to the ESPP,

30

except as required by applicable law. Any offering period that would otherwise be outstanding at the Effective Time will end prior to the Effective Time. All outstanding purchase rights under the ESPP will be exercised as close to the Effective Time (with such purchase rights subject to any pro rata adjustments that may be necessary if the current offering period in progress is shortened) as is administratively practicable, and the ESPP will terminate as of the Effective Time. Each Share purchased under the ESPP that remains outstanding as of immediately before the Effective Time will be cancelled at the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive the Offer Price, subject to any required tax withholdings.

cause or permit Castlight and its Subsidiaries to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Merger Agreement:

The Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) may effect a Castlight Board Recommendation Change of the type described in the Merger Agreement in response to any material event, fact, circumstance, development or occurrence that was (A) not known to, or reasonably foreseeable by, the Castlight Board as of the date of the Merger Agreement; and (B) does not relate to (a) any Acquisition Proposal (or any proposal or inquiry that constitutes, or is reasonably expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal); or (b) the fact, in and of itself, that Castlight meets or exceeds any internal or published projections, forecasts, estimates or predictions of revenue, earnings or other financial or operating metrics for any period ending on or after the date of the Merger Agreement, or changes after the date of the Merger Agreement in the market price or trading volume of the Company Common Stock or the credit rating of Castlight (it being understood that the underlying cause of any of the foregoing in this clause (b) may be considered and taken into account) (each such event, an “Intervening Event”), if the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law and if and only if:

Castlight has provided prior written notice to Parent at least five (5) business days (the “Event Notice Period”) in advance to the effect that the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) intends to effect a Castlight Board Recommendation Change pursuant to the Merger Agreement, which notice will specify the basis for such Castlight Board Recommendation Change, including a description of the Intervening Event in reasonable detail;

prior to effecting such Castlight Board Recommendation Change, Castlight and its Representatives, during such Event Notice Period, must have (A) negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent that Parent desires to so negotiate) to allow Parent to offer such adjustments to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement to obviate the need

to effect a Castlight Board Recommendation Change, in response to such Intervening Event and (B) taken into account any adjustments to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement proposed by Parent and other information provided by Parent in response to the notice described in the Merger Agreement, in each case, that are offered in writing by Parent, no later than 11:59 p.m. (Pacific time) on the last day of the Event Notice Period; and

following such Event Notice Period, the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel and taking into account Parent’s proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement) shall have determined in good faith that the failure of the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) to make such a Castlight Board Recommendation Change would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law; provided that each time material modifications to the Intervening Event occur, Castlight will be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of the Merger Agreement with respect to such new written notice (it being understood that the “Event Notice Period” in respect of such new written notice will be three (3) business days).

If Castlight has received a bona fide Acquisition Proposal, that the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) has concluded in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) is a Superior Proposal, then the Castlight Board may (A) effect a Castlight Board Recommendation Change of the type described in the Merger Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; or (B) authorize Castlight to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to the Merger Agreement to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal substantially concurrently with the termination of the Merger Agreement; provided that the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) shall not take any action described in the foregoing clauses (A) or (B) unless:

the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) determines in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the failure to do so would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law;

the Company Group and its Representatives have complied in all respects with their obligations pursuant to the Merger Agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal;

Castlight has provided prior written notice to Parent at least five (5) business days in advance (the “Proposal Notice Period”) to the effect that the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) has (A) received a bona fide Acquisition Proposal that has not been withdrawn; (B) concluded in good faith that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes a Superior Proposal; and (C) resolved to effect a Castlight Board Recommendation Change or to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to the Merger Agreement absent any revision to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, which notice will specify the basis for such Castlight Board Recommendation Change or termination, including the identity of the Person or “group” of Persons making such Acquisition Proposal, the material terms thereof and copies of all relevant documents relating to such Acquisition Proposal; and (ii) prior to effecting such Castlight Board Recommendation Change or termination, Castlight and its Representatives, during the Proposal Notice Period, must have (1) negotiated with Parent and its Representatives in good faith (to the extent that Parent desires to so negotiate) to offer such adjustments to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal would cease to constitute a Superior Proposal; and (2) taken into account any adjustments to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement proposed by Parent and other information provided by Parent during the Proposal Notice Period, in each case, that are offered in writing by Parent, no later than 11:59 p.m. (Pacific time) on the last day of the Proposal Notice Period, in a manner that would constitute a binding agreement between the parties if accepted by Castlight; provided that in the event of any material modifications to such Acquisition Proposal (it being understood that any change to the financial terms of such proposal shall be deemed a material modification), Castlight will be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of the Merger Agreement with respect to such new written notice (it being understood that the “Proposal Notice Period” in respect of such new written notice will be three (3) business days);

following such Proposal Notice Period, including any subsequent Proposal Notice Period as provided in the final proviso of the Merger Agreement, the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel and taking into account Parent’s proposed revisions to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and any other information provided by Parent) shall have determined that the failure of the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) to make such a Castlight Board Recommendation Change or to terminate the Merger Agreement would reasonably be expected to be inconsistent with its fiduciary duties pursuant to applicable Law; and

in the event of any termination of the Merger Agreement in order to cause or permit the Company Group to enter into an Alternative Acquisition Agreement with respect to such Acquisition Proposal, Castlight will have validly terminated the Merger Agreement in accordance with the Merger Agreement, including paying the Termination Fee in accordance with the Merger Agreement.

38

For purposes of this Offer to Purchase:

“Acquisition Proposal” means any Inquiry, offer or proposal relating to an Acquisition Transaction.

“Acquisition Transaction” means any transaction or series of related transactions (other than the Offer or the Merger) involving:

(A) any direct or indirect purchase or other acquisition by any third person or “group” (as defined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) of person, whether from Castlight or any other Person(s), of securities representing more than 20% of the total outstanding voting power of Castlight after giving effect to the consummation of such purchase or other acquisition, including pursuant to a tender offer or exchange offer by any Person or “group” of person that, if consummated in accordance with its terms, would result in such Person or “group” of person beneficially owning more than 20% of the total outstanding voting power of Castlight after giving effect to the consummation of such tender or exchange offer;

(B) any direct or indirect purchase, exclusive license or other acquisition by any third person or “group” (as defined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) of person of assets constituting or accounting for more than 20% of the consolidated assets, revenue or net income of the Company Group, taken as a whole (measured by the fair market value thereof as of the date of such purchase or acquisition); or

(C) any merger, consolidation, business combination, recapitalization, reorganization, liquidation, dissolution or other transaction involving Castlight pursuant to which (x) any third person or “group” (as defined pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) of person would hold securities representing more than 20% of the total outstanding voting power of Castlight outstanding after giving effect to the consummation of such transaction or (y) stockholders of Castlight immediately preceding such transaction hold less than 80% of the equity interests of the surviving or resulting entity of such transaction.

“Superior Proposal” means any bona fide written Acquisition Proposal for an Acquisition Transaction that (i) was not the result or effect of a violation of the Merger Agreement and (ii) is on terms that the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) has determined in good faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel), taking into account all legal, regulatory and financing aspects of the proposal (including certainty of closing), the identity of the Person making the proposal and other aspects of the Acquisition Proposal that the Castlight Board deems relevant, if consummated, would be more favorable from a financial point of view to Castlight Stockholders (in their capacity as such) than the Transactions (taking into account any revisions to the Merger Agreement made or proposed in writing by Parent prior to the time of such determination in accordance with the Merger Agreement). For purposes of the reference to an “Acquisition Proposal” in this definition, all references to (x) “20%” in the definition of “Acquisition Transaction” will be deemed to be references to “50%” and (y) “80%” in the definition of “Acquisition Transaction” will be deemed to be references to “50%”.

Post-Closing Employee Benefits.

The Merger Agreement provides that, for a period commencing at the Effective Time and ending on the one-year anniversary of the Effective Time (or, if sooner, on the date of termination of employment of the relevant Continuing Employee (as defined in the Merger Agreement)), Parent shall provide, or cause to be provided, to each Continuing Employee, (i) base salary and base wages, short-term cash incentive compensation opportunities, commission opportunities, and severance compensation and benefits, each on a basis no less favorable than that in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (ii) employee benefits (excluding, unless otherwise required by applicable Law, equity or equity-based, long-term incentives, defined benefit pension, nonqualified deferred compensation and retiree or post-termination welfare benefits or compensation, the “Excluded Benefits”) that are substantially similar to the employee benefits (excluding the Excluded Benefits) provided to similarly situated employees of Parent and its affiliates. The Merger Agreement provides that Parent shall honor and pay, or shall cause to be honored and paid, to Continuing Employees, all bonuses earned during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 pursuant to Castlight and its Subsidiaries’ bonus and incentive plans that are in place as of the Effective Time, in such aggregate amounts not to exceed the amount set forth on Section 6.8(b) of the Company Disclosure Letter delivered by Castlight in connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement.

The Merger Agreement provides that Parent agrees that all Continuing Employees shall be eligible to continue to participate in the Surviving Corporation’s health and welfare benefit plans (to the same extent such Continuing Employees were eligible to participate under the analogous health and welfare benefits plans of Castlight immediately prior to the Effective Time); provided that (i) nothing in the Merger Agreement or elsewhere in the Merger Agreement shall limit the right of Parent, its affiliates or the Surviving Corporation to amend, modify or terminate, in accordance with its terms, any benefit or compensation plan, policy, program, agreement, Contract or arrangement at any time assumed, established, sponsored or maintained by any of them, and (ii) if Parent or the Surviving Corporation terminates any such health or welfare benefit plan in which the Continuing Employees are eligible to participate after the Effective Time in the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs, then the Continuing Employees shall be eligible to participate in the Surviving Corporation’s (or a Subsidiary’s) health and welfare benefit plans to the extent that coverage

39

under such plans is replacing analogous coverage under an Employee Benefit Plan in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately before the Effective Time. To the extent that service is relevant under any benefit plan of Parent or Subsidiary of Parent and/or the Surviving Corporation (excluding any plan, program, policy, agreement or arrangement that provides any Excluded Benefit other than post-termination severance compensation and severance benefits), then Parent shall ensure that such benefit plan shall, for purposes of eligibility to participate, vesting, and with respect to severance compensation and vacation benefits only, entitlement to benefits, credit Continuing Employees for their years of service recognized by the Company Group prior to the Effective Time with the Company Group or their respective predecessors; provided that, no credit for any service will be required that would result in duplication of benefits and such credit shall only be given to the same extent that such service was recognized prior to the Effective Time under the corresponding benefit plan of a Company Group Member. Nothing in the Merger Agreement or elsewhere in the Merger Agreement shall be construed to create a right in any Person to employment, engagement or service or any right to continued employment, engagement or service with Parent, the Surviving Corporation or any other affiliate of the Surviving Corporation and the employment of each Continuing Employee shall be “at will” employment.

The Merger Agreement provides that with respect to any group medical plan maintained by Parent or its Subsidiaries in which the Continuing Employees participate following the Effective Time and in the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation and any of the other Subsidiaries of Parent to use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause there to be waived any eligibility requirements or pre-existing condition limitations or waiting period requirements under any such group health plans to the same extent waived or satisfied under any corresponding Employee Benefit Plan of a Company Group Member in which such Continuing Employee participated immediately prior to the Effective Time, and (ii) give effect, in determining any deductible, co-insurance and maximum out-of-pocket limitations under such group health plans in the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs, to amounts paid by such Continuing Employees during the portion of the year prior to the Effective Time under the Employee Benefit Plans maintained by Castlight or its subsidiaries.

Director and Officer Liability.

From the Effective Time and for a period of six (6) years after the date of the Merger Agreement, the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Laws, as in effect on the date of the Merger Agreement or thereafter: (i) indemnify and hold harmless each person who is at the date of the Merger Agreement, was previously, or during the period from the date of the Merger Agreement through the Effective Time will be, serving as a director, officer or employee of Castlight or any of its Subsidiaries and each Person who served as a director, officer, member, trustee or fiduciary of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust, pension or other employee benefit plan or enterprise at the request of or for the benefit of any Company Group Member (collectively, the “Covered Persons”) in connection with any D&O Claim and any losses, claims, damages, liabilities, judgments, fines, penalties, amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or payable in connection with or in respect of any thereof) and out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and all other out-of-pocket costs relating to or resulting from such D&O Claim. In addition, from the Effective Time and for a period of six (6) years thereafter, each of the Surviving Corporation and Parent shall advance costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) as incurred by any Covered Person in connection with any D&O Claim promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days) after receipt by Parent of a written request for such advance to the fullest extent permitted under applicable Law; provided, that the Person to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined (after exhausting all available appeals) that such Person is not entitled to indemnification.

For not less than six (6) years from and after the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Surviving Corporation shall contain provisions no less favorable with respect to exculpation, limitations on liability of Covered Persons, indemnification of and advancement of expenses to Covered Persons than are set forth as of the date of the Merger Agreement in the Charter and the Bylaws.

At Castlight’s option and expense (after prior consultation with Parent), or if Parent requests, prior to the Effective Time, Castlight may purchase (and pay in full the aggregate premium for) a six (6)-year prepaid “tail” insurance policy (which policy by its express terms shall survive the Offer and the Merger) of at least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are no less favorable to the covered individuals as Company Group’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policy or policies with a claims period of six (6) years from the Effective Time for D&O Claims arising from facts, acts, events or omissions that occurred on or prior to the Effective Time; provided that the aggregate premium for such tail policy shall not exceed three hundred percent (300%) of the annual premium amount paid by the Company Group for such insurance during the most recent calendar year (such amount being the “Maximum Premium”). If Castlight fails to obtain such tail policy prior to the Effective Time, Parent or the Surviving Corporation may obtain such a tail policy; provided, that the premium for such tail policy shall not exceed the Maximum Premium; provided, further, that if such tail policy cannot be obtained or can be obtained only by paying aggregate annual premiums in excess of the Maximum Premium, Parent, the Surviving Corporation or Castlight shall only be required to obtain as much coverage as can be obtained by paying the Maximum Premium. Parent and the Surviving Corporation shall cause any such policy (whether obtained by Parent, Castlight or the Surviving Corporation) to be maintained in full force and effect, for its full term, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to honor all its obligations thereunder.

40

In the event that Parent or the Surviving Corporation (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) sells all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then proper provision shall be made so that such continuing or surviving corporation or entity or transferee of such assets, as the case may be, shall assume the obligations set forth in the Merger Agreement.

The obligations under the Directors’ and Officers’ Exculpation, Indemnification and Insurance section of the Merger Agreement shall not be terminated or modified in any manner that is adverse to any Covered Persons (and their respective successors and assigns), it being expressly agreed that each Covered Person (including their respective successors and assigns) shall be a third-party beneficiary of that section. In the event of any breach by the Surviving Corporation or Parent of that section, the Surviving Corporation shall pay all reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, that may be incurred by Covered Persons in enforcing the indemnity and other obligations provided in this section) as such fees are incurred, upon the written request of such Covered Person.

Transaction Litigation.

The Merger Agreement provides that at all times during the period commencing as of the date of the Merger Agreement until the earlier of the termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Effective Time, Castlight will provide Parent with prompt notice of all Transaction Litigation (including by providing copies of all pleadings with respect thereto) and keep Parent reasonably informed with respect to the status thereof. Castlight will (a) give Parent the opportunity to participate (at Parent’s expense) in the defense, settlement or prosecution of any Transaction Litigation; and (b) consult with Parent with respect to the defense, settlement and prosecution of any Transaction Litigation. Castlight may not compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, or agree to compromise, settle or come to an arrangement regarding, any Transaction Litigation unless Parent has consented thereto in writing (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). “Participate” means that Parent will be kept apprised of proposed strategy and other significant decisions with respect to the Transaction Litigation by Castlight (to the extent that the attorney-client privilege between Castlight and its counsel is not undermined), and Parent may offer comments or suggestions with respect to such Transaction Litigation but will not be afforded any decision-making power or other authority over such Transaction Litigation except for the settlement or compromise consent set forth above. For the avoidance of doubt, any legal proceeding related to Dissenting Shares will be governed by Section 2.10(c) of the Merger Agreement.

Rule 14d-10 Matters.

The Merger Agreement provides that, prior to the scheduled expiration of the Offer, Castlight (acting through the Castlight Board) shall take all such steps as may be required to cause to be exempt under Rule 14d-10 promulgated under the Exchange Act any then-effective employment compensation, severance or other employee arrangements between Castlight or any of its Subsidiaries and any director, officer or employee of Castlight or any of its Subsidiaries who then holds shares of Class A Share or Class B Share. Promptly upon any Buyer Party or any of its respective affiliates entering into any such arrangement with any such Person, Parent will provide to Castlight any and all information concerning such arrangements as may be needed by Castlight to comply with the Merger Agreement.

Parent Financing Covenant.

The Financing, or any alternative financing, is not a condition to the Offer or the Merger. The Merger Agreement provides that Parent and Purchaser will use reasonable best efforts to take all actions and to do all things necessary, proper or advisable to obtain and consummate the Financing on the terms set forth in the Equity Commitment Letter, including using reasonable best efforts to (i) maintain in effect and comply with the Equity Commitment Letter, (ii) upon the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions to Parent’s and Purchaser’s obligations to consummate the Merger, consummate the Financing at the Closing, and (iii) enforce all of its rights under the Equity Commitment Letter. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent and Purchaser shall not, without the prior written consent of Castlight, agree to any termination of or amendment, supplement or modification to be made to, or grant any waiver of any provision under, the Equity Commitment Letter.

Neither Parent nor Purchaser shall not, without the prior written consent of Castlight, agree to any termination of or amendment, supplement or modification to be made to, or grant any waiver of any provision under, the Equity Commitment Letter.

Efforts to Close the Transaction.

Under the Merger Agreement, each of Parent and Purchaser, on the one hand, and Castlight, on the other hand, shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use their respective reasonable best efforts (A) to take (or cause to be taken) all actions; (B) do (or cause to be done) all things; and (C) assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing (or causing to be done) all things, in each case as are necessary, proper or advisable pursuant to applicable Law or otherwise to consummate and make effective, when required pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Offer and the Merger, including by using reasonable best efforts to: (i) cause the Offer Conditions and the conditions to the Merger set forth in the Merger Agreement (the “Merger Conditions”) to be satisfied; (ii) (1) obtain all consents, waivers, approvals, orders and authorizations from any government, government-sponsored entity, governmental

41

or regulatory entity or body, administrative agency, department, commission, board, agency or instrumentality, and any court, tribunal, arbitrator or arbitral body (public or private) or judicial body, in each case whether federal, state, county or provincial, national or supra-national, and whether local or foreign (“Governmental Authorities”); and (2) make all registrations, declarations and filings with Governmental Authorities, in each case that are necessary or advisable to consummate the Offer and the Merger; and, (iii) using commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver any Contracts and other instruments, including obtaining any consents under Material Contracts (other than Material Contracts related to Indebtedness (as defined in the Merger Agreement)), that are reasonably necessary to consummate the Offer and the Merger, in each case, to the extent requested by Parent.

In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, Parent and Castlight shall, and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to, use their respective reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all reasonable actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all reasonable things necessary, proper, or advisable under any applicable Laws to consummate and make effective the Offer or the Merger as promptly as practicable and in any event prior to the Extended Termination Date, including (i) preparing and filing all forms, registrations and notifications to or with any Governmental Authority required to be filed to consummate the Offer or the Merger, (ii) using reasonable best efforts to satisfy the conditions to consummating the Offer or the Merger, (iii) using reasonable best efforts to obtain (and to cooperate with each other in obtaining) any consent, authorization, expiration or termination of a waiting period, permit, order or approval of, waiver or any exemption by, any Governmental Authority, and (iv) defending any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging the Merger Agreement or the consummation of the Offer or the Merger. In connection with the foregoing, each of Parent and Castlight and their respective Subsidiaries shall file with the FTC and the Antitrust Division of the DOJ the Notification and Report Form required under the HSR Act relating to the Transactions as promptly as practicable (but in no event later than ten (10) business days after the date of the Merger Agreement) and such filings shall specifically request early termination of the waiting period. Neither Parent, Castlight, nor their respective affiliates will withdraw any such notices, reports, filings or applications (including its Notification and Report Form under the HSR Act) without the prior written consent of the other party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, or delayed.

Parent and Purchaser agree to take or cause to be taken promptly any and all reasonable steps necessary, proper or advisable to avoid, eliminate or resolve each and every impediment and obtain all clearances, consents, approvals and waivers or waiting period expirations or terminations under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law, so as to enable the parties to close the Transactions as promptly as practicable (and in any event by or before the Extended Termination Date). Without limitation to the foregoing, Parent and Purchaser shall (and shall cause their respective Subsidiaries to), to the extent necessary to obtain any clearances, consents, approvals and waivers or waiting period expirations or terminations as may be required under the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Law as promptly as practicable, and in any event by or before the Extended Termination Date, use their reasonable best efforts to, (i) sell, license, divest or dispose of or hold separate any assets, Intellectual Property Rights or businesses, (ii) terminate, amend or assign any existing relationships or contractual rights or obligations, (iii) change or modify any course of conduct regarding future operations, (iv) otherwise take any action that would limit the freedom of action with respect to, or the ability to retain, one or more businesses, assets or rights of any entity or interests therein and (v) commit to take any such action in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv); provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Merger Agreement, that Parent and Purchaser shall not be required to take any of the actions in the foregoing clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) with respect to Castlight (including, after the Effective Time, the Surviving Corporation) unless such action (A) is necessary to obtain required clearances or waiting period expirations or terminations as may be required under the HSR Act or any foreign Antitrust Law by or before the Extended Termination Date and (B) would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to be materially detrimental to the benefits to be derived by Parent and its affiliates as a result of the Transactions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Merger Agreement, none of Parent, Purchaser or any of their respective Subsidiaries shall be required to, and Castlight may not and may not permit any Subsidiary to, without the prior written consent of Parent, take any action, or commit to take any action, or agree to any condition or limitation contemplated in the Merger Agreement that is not conditioned on the consummation of the Transactions.

In addition, none of Castlight, Parent, Purchaser, or any of their respective Subsidiaries, shall acquire or make any investment in any corporation, partnership, limited liability company or other business organization or any division or assets thereof, that would reasonably be expected to materially delay the satisfaction of the conditions contained in the Merger Agreement or materially adversely affect the consummation of the Transactions.

Other Covenants.

The Merger Agreement contains other customary covenants, including, but not limited to, covenants relating to public announcements, complying with applicable antitrust laws, and making required SEC filings.

Termination.

The Merger Agreement may be terminated and the Transactions may be abandoned at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time:

(i)by mutual written agreement of Castlight and Parent; or

42

(ii)by either Castlight or Parent, if:

(a)any Legal Restraint preventing the consummation of the Offer or the Merger is in effect, or any action has been taken by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, that, in each case, prohibits, makes illegal or enjoins the consummation of the Offer or the Merger and has become final and non-appealable;

(b)any statute, rule or regulation has been enacted, entered, enforced or deemed applicable to the Offer or the Merger that prohibits, makes illegal or enjoins the consummation of the Offer or the Merger; provided that this right to terminate the Merger Agreement will not be available to any party that has failed to use its reasonable best efforts to resist, appeal, obtain consent pursuant to, resolve or lift, as applicable, such injunction, action, statute, rule, regulation or order in accordance with the Required Actions and Antitrust Covenants included in the Merger Agreement; provided, further, neither Parent nor Castlight may terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(b) thereof unless it is in material compliance with its obligations under the Required Actions and Antitrust Covenants included in the Merger Agreement; or

(c)at any time on or after 11:59 p.m., Pacific time, on the date that is 180 days after the Agreement Date (the “Termination Date”), unless the Offer Acceptance Time has occurred prior to such time; provided the Termination Date shall automatically be extended to the date that is 240 days after the Agreement Date (the “Extended Termination Date”) if the Closing shall not have occurred prior to the Termination Date and all the conditions to Closing (other than the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement related to the HSR Act or any other Antitrust Laws) and those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Offer Expiration Time) shall have been satisfied or waived; provided, further, that the right to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to this bullet will not be available to Parent if (i) Castlight has the right to terminate the Merger Agreement due to Parent or Purchaser’s breach or failure to perform any of its respective representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in the Merger Agreement, which breach or failure to perform would reasonably be expected to prevent the Buyer Parties from consummating the Offer or the Merger and (ii) its action or failure to act (which action or failure to act constitutes a breach by such party of the Merger Agreement and it being understood that a breach of the Merger Agreement by Purchaser shall be deemed to be a breach by Parent for all purposes of the Merger Agreement) has been the primary cause of, or primarily resulted in the failure of the Offer Acceptance Time to have occurred prior to the Offer Expiration Time (including resulting in a failure of any Offer Condition) (a “Termination Date Termination”); or

(d)the other party has breached or failed to perform any of its respective representations, warranties, covenants or other agreements contained in the Merger Agreement, which breach or failure to perform would reasonably be expected to prevent the other party from consummating the Offer or the Merger (including by resulting in a failure of a condition to the Offer set forth in Annex I of the Merger Agreement that is not waivable by the breaching party), except that if such breach is capable of being cured, the non-breaching party will not be entitled to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to terms of the Merger Agreement prior to the delivery by the non-breaching party to the breaching party of written notice of such breach, delivered at least thirty (30) days prior to such termination (or such shorter period of time as remains prior to the Expiration Time, the shorter of such periods, the “Breach Notice Period”), stating the non-breaching party’s intention to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to this bullet and the basis for such termination, it being understood that the breaching party will not be entitled to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to this bullet if (i) such breach has been cured within the Breach Notice Period or (ii) the breaching party has the valid right to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to this bullet (a “Breach Termination”);

(e)the Offer shall have expired in accordance with its terms without the Minimum Tender Condition having been satisfied or the other Offer Conditions having been satisfied or waived by Parent; provided that the right to terminate under this section shall not be available to any party whose failure to satisfy any agreements or covenants under the Merger Agreement has primarily caused or resulted in the non-satisfaction of the Minimum Tender Condition or any of the other Offer Conditions (an “Offer Expiration Termination”).

(iii)by Parent, if:

(a)at any time the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) has effected a Castlight Board Recommendation Change (a “Board Recommendation Change Termination”); or

(iv)by Castlight, if:

(a)at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time, if (i) Castlight has received a Superior Proposal; (ii) the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof) has authorized Castlight to enter into a definitive Alternative Acquisition Agreement to consummate the Acquisition Transaction contemplated by that Superior Proposal and substantially concurrently with

43

(but no later than the date of) such termination Castlight pays the Termination Fee due to Parent in accordance with the Merger Agreement (a “Superior Proposal Termination”); or

(b)Parent shall have failed to accept for payment all Shares validly tendered (and not validly withdrawn) as of the expiration of the Offer (as it may be extended)

Effect of Termination.

If the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with the terms thereof, the Merger Agreement will be of no further force or effect without liability of any party (or any partner, member, manager, stockholder, director, officer, employee, Affiliate, agent or other representative of such party) to the other parties thereto; provided, that, subject to certain limitations, certain provisions of the Merger Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement (solely to the extent provided therein) shall survive any termination of the Merger Agreement and (b) except as otherwise provided in the Merger Agreement, neither Castlight nor Parent or Purchaser shall be relieved from any liability for any Willful Breach (as defined in the Merger Agreement) of the Merger Agreement prior to its termination in which case, except as otherwise provided in the Merger Agreement, the aggrieved party shall be entitled to all remedies available at law or in equity.

Castlight Termination Fee.

(i) (A) If the Merger Agreement is validly terminated as a result of (x) a Termination Date Termination at a time when the Required Approvals Condition and the No Order Condition have been satisfied (but in the case of a termination by Castlight, only if at such time Parent would not be prohibited from terminating the Merger Agreement pursuant to the limitations set forth in Section 8.1(c)(i) or Section 8.1(c)(iii) of the Merger Agreement) or (y) by Parent as a result of a Breach Termination or an Offer Expiration Termination (each, an “Applicable Termination”) by either party after the Termination or Extended Termination Date subject to certain requirements in the Merger Agreement; (B) following the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement and prior to an Applicable Termination, an Acquisition Proposal has been publicly announced or disclosed; and (C) within twelve (12) months following such Applicable Termination, an Acquisition Transaction is consummated or Castlight enters into a definitive agreement providing for the consummation of an Acquisition Transaction, then Castlight will substantially concurrently with the earlier of the execution of such definitive agreement and the consummation of such Acquisition Transaction, pay to Parent (or its designee(s)) the Termination Fee, in accordance with the payment instructions which have been provided to Castlight by Parent as of the date of the Merger Agreement, or as further updated by written notice by Parent from time to time. For purposes of this (i), all references to “20%” and “80%” in the definition of “Acquisition Transaction” will be deemed to be references to “50%.”

(ii) If the Merger Agreement is validly terminated by Parent pursuant to a Board Recommendation Change Termination, then Castlight must promptly (and in any event within two (2) business days) following such termination pay to Parent the Termination Fee.

(iii) If the Merger Agreement is validly terminated pursuant to a Superior Proposal Termination, then Castlight must prior to or substantially concurrently with (but no later than the date of) such termination pay to Parent the Termination Fee.

The “Castlight Termination Fee” is an amount equal to $13,361,743.

In no event shall Castlight be required to pay the Castlight Termination Fee on more than one occasion.

Subject to certain provisions of the Merger Agreement, if the Merger Agreement is terminated, Parent’s receipt of the Termination Fee (if payable) and any amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.3(d) of the Merger Agreement will be the sole and exclusive remedies of (A) Parent, Purchaser or CD&R Fund XI; or (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, affiliates (other than Parent, Purchaser or CD&R Fund XI), members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders and assignees of each of Parent, Purchaser and CD&R Fund XI (the person in clauses (A) and (B) collectively, the “Parent Related Parties”) against the (A) Caslight and its affiliates; and (B) the former, current and future holders of any equity, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, attorneys, affiliates, members, managers, general or limited partners, stockholders and assignees of each of Castlight and its affiliates (the person in clauses (A) and (B) collectively, the “Castlight Related Parties”) for money damages in respect of the Merger Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith and the transactions contemplated thereby, the termination of the Merger Agreement, the failure to consummate the Offer and the Merger or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any breach, termination or failure. Other than the Termination Fee and any amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.3(d) of the Merger Agreement, none of the Castlight Related Parties will have any further liability or obligation to any of the Parent Related Parties relating to or arising out of the Merger Agreement, any agreement executed in connection therewith or the transactions contemplated thereby for any matters forming the basis of such termination. Parent’s receipt of the Termination Fee and any amounts payable pursuant to Section 8.3(d) of the Merger Agreement will be the only monetary damages Parent and Purchaser and each of their respective affiliates may recover from Caslight Related Parties in respect of the Merger Agreement, any agreement executed in connection therewith and the transactions contemplated thereby, the termination

44

of the Merger Agreement, the failure to consummate the Offer or the Merger or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure, and upon payment of such amount, (1) none of the Castlight Related Parties will have any further liability or obligation to Parent or Purchaser relating to or arising out of the Merger Agreement, any agreement executed in connection herewith or the transactions contemplated thereby or any matters forming the basis of such termination; and (2) none of Parent, Purchaser or any other Person will be entitled to bring or maintain any claim, action or proceeding against Castlight or any Castlight Related Party arising out of the Merger Agreement, any agreement executed in connection therewith or the transactions contemplatedhereby or any matters forming the basis for such termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this provision will not limit the rights of Parent and Purchaser under Section 9.8(a) of the Merger Agreement or relieve the Company Group from liability for any willful breach of the Merger Agreement.

Except as otherwise provided in the Merger Agreement, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement and the Transactions will be paid by the party incurring such fees and expenses whether or not the Offer and the Merger is consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, Parent or the Surviving Corporation will be responsible for all fees and expenses of the Payment Agent. Except to the extent otherwise provided in the Merger Agreement, Parent will pay or cause to be paid all (i) transfer taxes or fees; and (ii) real property transfer taxes or fees arising out of or in connection with entering into the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the Offer and the Merger, provided, for the avoidance of doubt, any Taxes imposed on income, profits, gains, or other similar items as a result of the Transactions shall be for the account of the applicable Castlight Stockholder or holder of a Company Equity Award or any other interest in Castlight.

Specific Performance; Remedies.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the parties agreed that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the parties do not timely perform the provisions of the Merger Agreement (including any party failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder in order to consummate the Merger Agreement) in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that, (A) the parties will be entitled, in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity, to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches (or threatened breaches) of the Merger Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions thereof; (B) the provisions of the Merger Agreement are not intended to and do not adequately compensate Castlight, on the one hand, or Parent and Purchaser, on the other hand, for the harm that would result from a breach of the Merger Agreement, and will not be construed to diminish or otherwise impair in any respect any party’s right to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief; and (C) the right of specific enforcement is an integral part of the Offer and the Merger and without that right, neither Castlight nor Parent would have entered into the Merger Agreement. It is explicitly agreed that, Castlight shall have the right to an injunction, specific performance or other equitable remedies in connection with enforcing Parent’s and Purchaser’s obligations to consummate the Offer (including, subject to the satisfaction (or to the extent waivable, the wavier by Parent (on behalf of the Buyer Parties)) of the Offer Conditions, Purchaser’s obligation to accept for payment, and pay for, shares of Class A Share and Class B Share tendered in the Offer) and the Merger, and Parent’s obligation under the Merger Agreement to cause the Financing to be funded, including by exercising its rights in accordance with the Equity Commitment Letter, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein and in the Merger Agreement. The Merger Agreement further provides that, the parties agree not to raise any objections to (A) the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent or restrain breaches or threatened breaches of the Merger Agreement by Castlight, on the one hand, or Parent and Purchaser, on the other hand; and (B) the specific performance of the terms and provisions of the Merger Agreement to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of, or to enforce compliance with, the covenants, obligations and agreements of Parent and Purchaser pursuant to the Merger Agreement. Any party seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of the Merger Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of the Merger Agreement will not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with such injunction or enforcement, and each party irrevocably waives any right that it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or other security.

Non-recourse.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Merger Agreement may only be enforced against the named parties thereto (subject to the terms, conditions and other limitations set forth therein), and (i) all claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to the Merger Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of the Merger Agreement may only be made against the person that are expressly identified as the parties thereto, (ii) except as provided in any Tender and Support Agreement, no past, present or future director, manager, officer, employee, incorporator, member general partner, limited partner, equityholder, trustee, Affiliate, agent attorney or other Representative of any party thereto (including any person negotiating or executing the Merger Agreement on behalf of a party thereto) shall have any liability or obligation with respect to t the Merger Agreement or any of the other Transaction documents or with respect to any claim or cause of action that may arise out of or relate to the Merger Agreement or any of the other Transaction documents, or the negotiation, execution or performance of the Merger Agreement and (iii) in no event will Castlight seek or obtain, nor will it permit any of its Representatives to seek or obtain, nor will any Person be entitled to seek or obtain, any monetary recovery or monetary award against any Person who is not a party thereto, including CD&R, and any and all former, current or future direct or indirect equityholders,

45

controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, members, managers, management companies, general or limited partners, assignees or affiliates of CD&R, Parent or Purchaser and any and all former, current or future direct or indirect equityholders, controlling persons, directors, officers, employees, agents, members, managers, management companies, general or limited partners, assignees or affiliates of any of the foregoing, and any and all former, current or future heirs, executors, administrators, trustees, successors or assigns of any of the foregoing, with respect to the Merger Agreement or the Transactions (including any breach by Parent or Purchaser), the termination of the Merger Agreement, the failure to consummate the Transactions or any claims or actions under applicable Law arising out of any such breach, termination or failure, except, in each case, for claims that Castlight, Parent or Purchaser, as applicable, may assert: (A) against any Person that is party to, and solely pursuant to the terms and conditions of, the Confidentiality Agreement or any Tender and Support Agreement; (B) against Parent or Purchaser pursuant to the Merger Agreement; and (C) against CD&R pursuant to the Equity Commitment Letter for specific performance of its obligation to fund the Financing in accordance with, and pursuant to the terms and conditions of, the Equity Commitment Letter.

Assignment.

No party to the Merger Agreement may assign either the Merger Agreement or any of the rights, interests, or obligations thereunder without the prior written approval of the other parties thereto, except that Parent and Purchaser have the right to assign all or any portion of their respective rights and obligations pursuant to the Merger Agreement from and after the Effective Time to any of their respective affiliates, it being understood that such assignment will not (i) affect the obligations of the parties to the Equity Commitment Letter or (ii) impede or delay the consummation of the Offer or the Merger. Subject to the preceding sentence, the Merger Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No assignment by any party to the Merger Agreement will relieve such party of any of its obligations hereunder.

Amendment and Waiver.

Subject to applicable Law and subject to the other provisions of the Merger Agreement, the Merger Agreement may be amended by the parties at any time prior to the Offer Acceptance Time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of Parent, Purchaser and Castlight (pursuant to authorized action by the Castlight Board (or a committee thereof)). At any time and from time to time prior to the Effective Time, any party may, to the extent legally allowed and except as otherwise set forth herein, (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other parties, as applicable; (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to such party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto; and (c) subject to the requirements of applicable law, waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such party contained herein, except that the Minimum Tender Condition may only be waived by Parent (on behalf of the Buyer Parties) with the prior written consent of Castlight, acting only with the prior written consent of the Castlight Board. Any agreement on the part of a party to any such extension or waiver will be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed by such party. Any delay in exercising any right pursuant to the Merger Agreement will not constitute a waiver of such right.

Governing Law.

The Merger Agreement is governed by Delaware law.

Confidentiality Agreement.

On May 11, 2021, Castlight and Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC entered into a confidentiality agreement (the “Confidentiality Agreement”). As a condition to being furnished Confidential Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement), Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC agreed that, except as required by Law (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement), to keep confidential and not to disclose or reveal any Confidential Information to any person other than those of Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC’s Representatives (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) to use, solely for the purpose of evaluating, proposing or negotiating a possible Transaction and for no other purpose, provided that any of such information may be disclosed to Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC’s Representatives who need to know such information solely for the purpose of evaluating any such possible Transaction and who have been advised of the Confidentiality Agreement and the confidential nature of the Confidential Information and the Transaction Information (as defined in the Confidentiality Agreement) and have been directed to comply with the applicable terms thereof. The Confidentiality Agreement contains a customary standstill provision with a term of 12 months that terminates if (x) Castlight enters into a definitive agreement with a third party for (A) a transaction resulting in either the sale of more than 50% of the outstanding voting equity securities of Castlight or of all or substantially all of the consolidated assets of Castlight and its subsidiaries or (B) a merger or other business combination in which the voting equity securities of Castlight outstanding immediately prior to such transaction do not constitute 50% or more of the voting equity securities of the resulting entity of such transaction or its parent company, or (y) a third party makes a tender offer for more than 50% of the outstanding voting equity securities of the other party and the other Party and its board of directors does not publicly reject such offer within ten (10) business days of the commencement thereof.

46

The foregoing summary of the Confidentiality Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Confidentiality Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit (d)(2) to the Schedule TO incorporated herein by reference.

Tender and Support Agreements.

On January 4, 2022, in connection with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, certain stockholders of Castlight affiliated with Maverick and Venrock (collectively, the “Supporting Stockholders”), entered into a Tender and Support Agreements with Parent and Purchaser (the “Tender and Support Agreements”). The Supporting Stockholders collectively beneficially own approximately 18% of the outstanding Shares as of January 4, 2022.

The Tender and Support Agreements provides that the Supporting Stockholders will tender all of the Shares held by such Supporting Stockholder in the Offer. Furthermore, the Tender and Support Agreements provide that (among other things) each Supporting Stockholder will not, and will cause each of its affiliates not to: (a) (i) transfer, redeem, exchange, surrender, assign, sell, gift-over, hedge, pledge or otherwise dispose (whether by liquidation, dissolution, dividend, distribution or otherwise) of, enter into any derivative arrangement with respect to, create any Encumbrance on (any of the items set forth in this clause (i), a “Transfer”), any or all of the Supporting Stockholder’s Shares; (ii) take or cause the taking of any other action that would materially restrict or prevent the performance of the Supporting Stockholder’s obligations under the Tender and Support Agreements, excluding any involuntary bankruptcy filing; (b) exercise any appraisal rights available to the Supporting Stockholder with respect to the Offer or the Merger pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or otherwise; or (c) commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any claim, derivative or otherwise, against Parent or Purchaser, Castlight or any of their respective affiliates, any of their respective successors or the directors or officers of any of the foregoing, in each case relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery of the Tender and Support Agreements, the Merger Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby.

The foregoing summary of the Tender and Support Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Tender and Support Agreements, which is filed as Exhibit (d)(5) to the Schedule TO incorporated herein by reference.

Equity Commitment Letter.

The descriptions of the Equity Commitment Letter included in Section 9 – “Source and Amount of Funds – Equity Financing” is incorporated into this Section 11 by reference.

12. Purpose of the Offer; Plans for Castlight.

Purpose of the Offer. The Offer is being made pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The purpose of the Offer is to acquire control of, and the entire equity interest in, Castlight. The Offer, as the first step in the acquisition of Castlight, is intended to facilitate the acquisition of all outstanding Shares. After the Offer Acceptance Time, Purchaser intends to consummate the Merger as promptly as practicable, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that Purchaser will be merged into Castlight.

Merger Without a Meeting. If the Offer is consummated, we do not anticipate seeking the approval of Castlight’s remaining public stockholders before effecting the Merger. Section 251(h) of the DGCL provides that following consummation of a successful tender offer for a public corporation, and subject to certain statutory provisions, if the acquirer holds at least the amount of shares of each class of stock of the target corporation that would otherwise be required to approve a merger for the target corporation, and the other stockholders receive the same consideration for their stock in the merger as was payable in the tender offer, then the acquirer can effect a merger without the action of the other stockholders of the target corporation. Accordingly, if we consummate the Offer, we intend to effect the Closing without a vote of the stockholders of Castlight in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

Plans for Castlight.

In the normal course of its business of investing, Parent may pursue acquisitions of other companies in Castlight's industry and look to combine those companies with Castlight. We expect that, following consummation of the Merger and the other Transactions, the operations of Castlight, the Surviving Corporation, will be conducted substantially as they currently are being conducted. We do not have any current intentions, plans or proposals to cause any material changes in the Surviving Corporation’s business, other than in connection with Castlight’s current strategic planning.

As of the date of this Offer to Purchase, no member of Castlight’s current management has entered into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with Parent, Purchaser or their affiliates regarding potential terms of employment with, or the right to participate in the equity of, the Surviving Corporation or Parent. Moreover, as of the date of this Offer to Purchase, no discussions have been held between members of Castlight’s current management and Parent, Purchaser or their affiliates with respect to any such agreement,

47

arrangement or understanding. Parent may establish equity-based compensation plans for management of the Surviving Corporation. It is anticipated that awards granted under any such equity-based compensation plans would generally vest over a number of years of continued employment and would entitle management to share in the future appreciation of the Surviving Corporation. Although it is likely that certain members of Castlight’s management team will enter into arrangements with the Surviving Corporation or Parent regarding employment (and severance arrangements) with, and the right to purchase or participate in the equity of, the Surviving Corporation or Parent, as of the date of this Offer to Purchase no discussions have occurred between members of Castlight’s current management and Parent or Purchaser regarding the potential terms of any such employment or severance arrangement, and there can be no assurance that any parties will reach an agreement on commercially reasonable terms, or at all.

Nevertheless, the management and/or the board of directors of Parent or the Surviving Corporation may initiate a review of the Surviving Corporation to determine what changes, if any, would be desirable following the Offer and the Merger to enhance the business and operations of the Surviving Corporation and may cause the Surviving Corporation to engage in certain extraordinary corporate transactions, such as reorganizations, mergers or sales or purchases of assets, if the management and/or board of directors of Parent or the Surviving Corporation decide that such transactions are in the best interest of Parent or the Surviving Corporation upon such review.

13. Certain Effects of the Offer.

Market for the Shares. If the Offer is consummated, there will be no market for the Class B Shares after the Offer Acceptance Time because Parent and Purchaser intend to consummate the Merger prior to NYSE opening on the next business day.

Stock Quotation. The Class B Shares are currently listed on NYSE and trade under the symbol “CSLT”. Immediately following the consummation of the Merger (which is expected to occur as promptly as practicable following the Offer Acceptance Time), the Class B Shares will no longer meet the requirements for continued listing on NYSE because the only stockholder will be Parent. Immediately following the consummation of the Merger, we intend and will cause Castlight to de-list the Class B Shares from NYSE.

Exchange Act Registration. The Class B Shares currently are registered under the Exchange Act. The purchase of Class B Shares pursuant to the Offer may result in such Class B Shares becoming eligible for deregistration under the Exchange Act. Registration of Class B Shares may be terminated by Castlight upon application to the SEC if the outstanding Class B Shares are not listed on a “national securities exchange” and if there are fewer than 300 holders of record of Class B Shares.

We intend to seek to cause Castlight to apply for termination of registration of the Class B Shares as soon as possible after consummation of the Offer if the requirements for termination of registration are met. Termination of registration of the Class B Shares under the Exchange Act would reduce the information required to be furnished by Castlight to its stockholders and to the SEC and would make certain provisions of the Exchange Act (such as the short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16(b), the requirement of furnishing a proxy statement or information statement in connection with stockholders’ meetings or actions in lieu of a stockholders’ meeting pursuant to Sections 14(a) and 14(c) of the Exchange Act and the related requirement of furnishing an annual report to stockholders) no longer applicable with respect to the Class B Shares. In addition, if the Class B Shares are no longer registered under the Exchange Act, the requirements of Rule 13e-3 with respect to “going private” transactions would no longer be applicable to Castlight. Furthermore, the ability of “affiliates” of Castlight and persons holding “restricted securities” of Castlight to dispose of such securities pursuant to Rule 144 under the U.S. Securities Act. If registration of the Class B Shares under the Exchange Act was terminated, the Class B Shares would no longer be eligible for continued inclusion on the Federal Reserve Board’s (as defined below) list of “margin securities” or eligible for stock exchange listing.

If registration of the Class B Shares is not terminated prior to the Merger, then the registration of the Class B Shares under the Exchange Act will be terminated following completion of the Merger.

Margin Regulations. The Class B Shares are currently “margin securities” under the regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve Board”), which has the effect, among other things, of allowing brokers to extend credit using such Class B Shares as collateral. Depending upon factors similar to those described above regarding listing and market quotations, following the Offer, the Class B Shares may no longer constitute “margin securities” for purposes of the margin regulations of the Federal Reserve Board, in which event the Class B Shares would be ineligible as collateral for margin loans made by brokers.

14. Dividends and Distributions.

Castlight has not declared or paid any cash dividends on its Shares and does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the near future.

As discussed in Section 11 – “The Merger Agreement; Other Agreements,” the Merger Agreement provides that from the date of the Merger Agreement until the Effective Time, except as expressly required by the Merger Agreement, law or contract, or with the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, Castlight will not declare, set aside

48

or pay any dividends on, or make any other distributions (whether in cash, stock, property or a combination thereof) in respect of any of its capital stock.

15. Certain Conditions of the Offer.

Notwithstanding any other term of the Offer or the Merger Agreement to the contrary, Purchaser shall not be required to (and Parent shall not be required to cause Purchaser to) accept for payment or, subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, including Rule 14e-l(c) under the Exchange Act (relating to Purchaser’s obligation to pay for or return tendered Shares promptly after the termination or withdrawal of the Offer), to pay for any Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, and may delay the acceptance for payment of or, subject to any applicable rules and regulations of the SEC, the payment for, any tendered Shares, and (subject to the provisions of the Merger Agreement) may terminate the Offer and not accept for payment any tendered Shares: (i) if the Merger Agreement has been terminated in accordance with the Merger Agreement; or (ii) at any scheduled Expiration Date (as it may have been extended pursuant to the Merger Agreement), if (x) the condition set forth in clause (a) below has not been satisfied at the Offer Expiration Time or (y) any of the additional conditions set forth below shall not be satisfied or waived in writing by Parent (on behalf of the Buyer Parties) at the Offer Expiration Time:

(a) the number of shares of Class A Share and Class B Share validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the Offer Expiration Time (excluding Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been delivered in satisfaction of such guarantee in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL), together with any shares of Class A Share and Class B Share beneficially owned by Purchaser or its “affiliates” (as defined in Section 251(h) of the DGCL), will, immediately after giving effect to the acceptance for payment of shares of Class A Share and Class B Share in the Offer, equal at least one vote more than 50% of the aggregate voting power of all issued and outstanding shares of Class A Share and Class B Share (the “Minimum Tender Condition”);

(b) (i) other than the representations and warranties listed in clauses (b)(ii) and (b)(iii) in Annex I of the Merger agreement, the representations and warranties of the Company Group set forth in the Merger Agreement will be true and correct (without giving effect to any materiality or Company Material Adverse Effect qualifications set forth therein) as of the Offer Expiration Time as if made at and as of the Offer Expiration Time (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty will be true and correct as of such earlier date), except for such failures to be true and correct that would not have a Company Material Adverse Effect; (ii) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.1, Section 3.2, Section 3.10(a)(ii), Section 3.23, and Section 3.24 of the Merger Agreement that (A) are not qualified by Company Material Adverse Effect or other materiality qualifications will be true and correct in all material respects as of the Offer Expiration Time as if made at and as of the Offer Expiration Time (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty will be true and correct in all material respects as of such earlier date); and (B) that are qualified by Company Material Adverse Effect or other materiality qualifications will be true and correct in all respects (without disregarding such Company Material Adverse Effect or other materiality qualifications) as of the Offer Expiration Time as if made at and as of the Offer Expiration Time (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty will be true and correct in all respects as of such earlier date); (iii) the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.5(a), Section 3.5(c) and Section 3.5(d) of the Merger Agreement will be true and correct in all respects as of the Offer Expiration Time ((A) without giving effect to any Company Material Adverse Effect or in each case their materiality qualifications; and (B) except to the extent that any such representation and warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty will be true and correct as of such earlier date), except where the failure to be so true and correct would not reasonably be expected to result in additional cost, expense or liability to Castlight, Parent and their affiliates, individually or in the aggregate, that is more than $1,500,000 (the “Representations Condition”);

(c) Castlight will have performed and complied in all material respects with all covenants, obligations and conditions of the Merger Agreement required to be performed and complied with by it on or prior to the Offer Expiration Time (the “Covenants Condition”);

(d) no Company Material Adverse Effect will have occurred since the date of the Merger Agreement that is continuing;

(e) the Buyer Parties will have received a certificate of the Company Group, validly executed for and on behalf of Castlight by a duly authorized executive officer thereof, certifying that the conditions set forth in clauses (b), (c) and (d) in Annex I of the Merger Agreement have been satisfied;

(f) no temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or other judgment or order issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or other legal or regulatory restraint or prohibition preventing the consummation of the Offer or the Merger will be in effect, nor will any action have been taken by any Governmental Authority of competent jurisdiction, and no statute, rule, regulation or order will have been enacted, entered, enforced or deemed applicable to the Offer or the Merger, that in each case prohibits, makes illegal, or enjoins the consummation of the Offer or the Merger (the “No Order Condition”);

49

(g) any waiting period under the HSR Act applicable to the Transactions shall have expired or been earlier terminated (the “Required Approvals Condition”); and

(h) the Merger Agreement shall not have been terminated in accordance with its terms (the “Termination Condition”).

The foregoing conditions (each such condition, an “Offer Condition” and, collectively, the “Offer Conditions”) are for the sole benefit of Parent and Purchaser and, except for the Minimum Tender Condition (which may only be waived with the prior written consent of Castlight).

16. Certain Legal Matters; Regulatory Approvals.

General. Except as described in this Offer to Purchase, Purchaser is not aware of any pending legal proceeding relating to the Offer. Except as described in this Section 16, based on its examination of publicly available information filed by Castlight with the SEC and other publicly available information concerning Castlight, Purchaser is not aware of any governmental license or regulatory permit that appears to be material to Castlight’s business that might be adversely affected by Purchaser’s acquisition of Shares as contemplated herein or of any approval or other action by any governmental, administrative or regulatory authority or agency, domestic or foreign, that would be required for the acquisition or ownership of Shares by Purchaser or Parent as contemplated herein. Should any such approval or other action be required, Purchaser currently contemplates that, except as described below under “State Takeover Laws,” such approval or other action will be sought. While Purchaser does not currently intend to delay acceptance for payment of Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer pending the outcome of any such matter, there can be no assurance that any such approval or other action, if needed, would be obtained or would be obtained without substantial conditions or that if such approvals were not obtained or such other actions were not taken, adverse consequences might not result to Castlight’s business, or certain parts of Castlight’s business might not have to be disposed of, any of which could cause Purchaser to elect to terminate the Offer without the purchase of Shares thereunder under certain conditions. See Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer.”

State Takeover Laws. As a Delaware corporation, Castlight is subject to Section 203 of the DGCL (“Section 203”). In general, Section 203 restricts an “interested stockholder” (including a person who has the right to acquire 15% or more of a corporation’s outstanding voting stock) from engaging in a “business combination” (defined to include mergers and certain other actions) with a Delaware corporation for three years following the time such person became an interested stockholder unless: (1) before such person became an interested stockholder, the board of directors of the corporation approved the transaction in which the interested stockholder became an interested stockholder or approved the business combination; (2) upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the interested stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced (excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder), the number of shares of outstanding stock held by directors who are also officers and by employee stock plans that do not allow plan participants to determine confidentially whether to tender shares); or (3) at or following the transaction in which such person became an interested stockholder, the business combination is (a) approved by the board of directors of the corporation; and (b) authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, and not by written consent, by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66 2/3% of the outstanding voting stock of the corporation not owned by the interested stockholder. The Board has approved the Offer, including the Offer to Purchase, the Letter of Transmittal and related documents (including, without limitation, the Merger Agreement) and the other transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger, and Castlight believes that such acts and transactions are not subject to the restrictions of Section 203. Further, the Board has exempted Castlight from any other “fair price,” “control share acquisition,” “business combination” or other similar anti-takeover statute or regulation that may be applicable to the Offer, including the Offer to Purchase, the Letter of Transmittal and related documents (including, without limitation, the Merger Agreement) and the other transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger.

Castlight is not aware of any other state takeover laws or regulations that are applicable to the Offer or the Merger and has not attempted to comply with any state takeover laws or regulations other than as described above. If any “control share acquisition,” “fair price,” “moratorium,” or other anti-takeover applicable law becomes or is deemed to be applicable to Castlight, Parent, the Offer, the Merger, or related documents (including, without limitation, the Merger Agreement) and the other transactions contemplated thereby, then each of Castlight and Parent, and their respective boards of directors, will grant such approvals and take such actions as are necessary so that the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms contemplated by the Merger Agreement and otherwise act to render such anti-takeover applicable law inapplicable. In the event it is asserted that one or more state takeover statutes is applicable to the Offer or the Merger and an appropriate court does not determine that it is inapplicable or invalid as applied to the Offer or the Merger, Parent might be required to file certain information with, or to receive approvals from, the relevant state authorities or holders of Shares, and Parent might be unable to accept for payment or pay for Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, or be delayed in continuing or consummating the Offer or the Merger. In such case, Parent may not be obligated to accept for payment or pay for any tendered Shares.

50

In connection with its approval of the Merger Agreement, the Offer, and the Merger, the Board adopted a resolution approving the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer, the Merger, and any related documents for purposes of Section 203, but only insofar as each of the Offer and the Merger are consummated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement and the related agreements.

Castlight, directly indirectly through subsidiaries, conducts business in a number of states throughout the United States, some of which have enacted takeover laws. We do not know whether any of these laws will, by their terms, apply to the Offer or the Merger and have not attempted to comply with any such laws. Should any person seek to apply any state takeover law, we will take such action as then appears desirable, which may include challenging the validity or applicability of any such statute in appropriate court proceedings. In the event any person asserts that the takeover laws of any state are applicable to the Offer or the Merger, and an appropriate court does not determine that it is inapplicable or invalid as applied to the Offer or the Merger, we may be required to file certain information with, or receive approvals from, the relevant state authorities. In addition, if enjoined, we may be unable to accept for payment any Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer, or be delayed in continuing or consummating the Offer and the Merger. In such case, we may not be obligated to accept for payment any Shares tendered in the Offer. See Section 15 – “Certain Conditions of the Offer.”

Under the HSR Act, and the related rules and regulations that have been issued by the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), certain transactions having a value above specified thresholds may not be consummated until specified information and documentary material (“Premerger Notification and Report Forms”) have been furnished to the FTC and the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (the “Antitrust Division”) and certain waiting period requirements have been satisfied.

It is a condition to the Purchaser’s obligation to accept for payment and pay for Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer that the waiting period (and any extension of the waiting period) applicable to the Offer under the HSR Act shall have expired or been terminated. Under the HSR Act, the purchase of Shares in the Offer may not be undertaken until the expiration of a 15-calendar day waiting period following the filing by Parent, of a Premerger Notification and Report Form concerning the Offer with the FTC and the Antitrust Division, unless the waiting period is earlier terminated by the FTC. If within the 15-calendar day waiting period either of the FTC or the Antitrust Division were to issue requests for additional information and documentary material (a “Second Request”) to Parent and Castlight, the waiting period with respect to the Transactions would be extended until 10-calendar days following the date of substantial compliance by Parent with that request, unless the FTC terminated the additional waiting period before its expiration. If either the 15-day or 10-day waiting period expires on a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday, then such waiting period will be extended until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time of the next day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or federal holiday. After that time, the timing of the purchase of Shares in the Offer could be delayed only by court order or with Parent’s and Castlight’s consent. It is also possible that Parent and Castlight could enter into a timing agreement with the FTC or the Antitrust Division that could affect the timing of the purchase of Shares in the Offer. In practice, complying with a Second Request can take a significant period of time.

At any time before or after Purchaser’s acceptance for payment of Shares pursuant to the Offer, notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act, the FTC and the Antitrust Division have the authority to seek a federal court order enjoining the Transactions or, if Shares have already been acquired, the disposition of those Shares, or the divestiture of substantial assets of Purchaser, Castlight, or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates, or other relief. At any time before or after consummation of the Transactions, notwithstanding the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the HSR Act, U.S. state attorneys general and private persons may also bring legal action under the antitrust laws seeking similar relief or seeking conditions to the completion of the Offer. There can be no assurance that a challenge to the Offer on antitrust grounds will not be made or, if a challenge is made, what the result will be. If any such action is threatened or commenced by the FTC, the Antitrust Division or any state or any other person, Purchaser may not be obligated to consummate the Offer or the Merger.

Vera will file a Premerger Notification and Report Form on or around January 19, 2022. Castlight will file a Premerger Notification and Report Form on or around January 19, 2022.

17. Appraisal Rights.

Holders of Shares will not have appraisal rights in connection with the Offer. However, if the Offer is successful and the Merger is consummated, holders of Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time who have not validly tendered such Shares in the Offer (or who have validly tendered but subsequently validly withdrawn the tender, and not otherwise waived their appraisal rights) and who otherwise comply with the applicable procedures under Section 262 of the DGCL will be entitled to an appraisal of the “fair value” of their Shares in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL.

Under Section 262 of the DGCL, where a merger is approved under Section 251(h) of the DGCL, either a constituent corporation before the effective date of the merger, or the surviving corporation within ten days thereafter, shall notify each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal rights of the approval of the merger and that appraisal rights are available for any or all shares of such class or series of stock of such constituent corporation, and shall include in such notice a copy of Section 262. The Schedule 14D-9 constitutes the formal notice of appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL. Any holder of Shares who wishes to exercise such appraisal rights or who wishes to preserve his, her or its right to do so,

51

should review the discussion of appraisal rights in the Schedule 14D-9 as well as Section 262 of the DGCL, attached as Annex B to the Schedule 14D-9, carefully because failure to timely and properly comply with the procedures specified may result in the loss of appraisal rights under the DGCL.

Any stockholder wishing to exercise appraisal rights is urged to consult legal counsel before attempting to exercise such rights.

As described more fully in the Schedule 14D-9, if a stockholder elects to exercise appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL with respect to Shares held immediately prior to the Effective Time, such stockholder must do all of the following:

within the later of the consummation of the Offer and 20 days after the mailing of the Schedule 14D-9, deliver to Castlight at the address indicated below a written demand for appraisal of Shares held, which demand must reasonably inform Castlight of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder is demanding appraisal;

not tender the stockholder’s Shares in the Offer (or otherwise waive such stockholder’s appraisal rights); 

continuously hold of record the Shares from the date on which the written demand for appraisal is made through the Effective Time; and

any stockholder of Castlight or beneficial owner of Shares who has otherwise perfected its appraisal rights, or the Surviving Corporation, must file a petition in the Delaware Court of Chancery demanding a determination of the fair value of the stock of all such stockholders within 120 days after the effective date of the Merger.

This summary of appraisal rights under the DGCL is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to Section 262 of the DGCL. A copy of Section 262 of the DGCL is included as Annex B to the Schedule 14D-9.

The information provided above is not a complete statement of the law pertaining to appraisal rights under the DGCL and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of Section 262 of the DGCL, which is attached to the Schedule 14D-9 as Annex B. All references in Section 262 of the DGCL and in this summary to a “stockholder” are to the record holder of Shares immediately prior to the Effective Time as to which appraisal rights are asserted. A person having a beneficial interest in Shares held of record in the name of another person, such as a broker or nominee, must act promptly to cause the record holder to follow the steps summarized below properly and in a timely manner to perfect appraisal rights.

18. Fees and Expenses.

Parent and Purchaser have retained D.F. King to be the Information Agent and American Stock Transfer & Trust Co., LLC to be the Depositary and Paying Agent in connection with the Offer. The Information Agent may contact holders of Shares by mail, telephone, telecopy and personal interview and may request brokers, bankers and other nominees to forward materials relating to the Offer to beneficial owners of Shares.

The Information Agent and the Depositary and Paying Agent each will receive customary compensation for their respective services in connection with the Offer, will be reimbursed for customary expenses and will be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses in connection therewith, including certain liabilities under federal securities laws.

Neither Parent nor Purchaser will pay any fees or commissions to any broker or dealer or to any other person (other than to the Depositary and Paying Agent and the Information Agent) in connection with the solicitation of tenders of Shares pursuant to the Offer. Brokers, bankers and other nominees will, upon request, be reimbursed by Purchaser for customary mailing and handling expenses incurred by them in forwarding offering materials to their customers.

19. Miscellaneous.

The Offer is not being made to (nor will tenders be accepted from or on behalf of) holders of Shares in any state in which the making of the Offer or the acceptance thereof would not be in compliance with the laws of such state. However, Purchaser may, in its discretion, take such action as it may deem necessary to make the Offer in any such state and to extend the Offer to holders of Shares in such state. In those jurisdictions where applicable laws require the Offer to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Offer will be deemed to be made on behalf of Purchaser by one or more registered brokers or dealers licensed under the laws of such jurisdiction to be designated by Purchaser.

No person has been authorized to give any information or to make any representation on behalf of Parent or Purchaser not contained herein or in the Letter of Transmittal and, if given or made, such information or representation must not be relied upon as having been authorized. Neither delivery of this Offer to Purchase nor any purchase pursuant to the Offer will, under any circumstances, create any implication that there has been no change in the affairs of Parent, Purchaser, Castlight or any of their respective subsidiaries since the date as of which information is furnished or the date of this Offer to Purchase.

52

Purchaser has filed with the SEC a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO pursuant to Rule 14d-3 of the General Rules and Regulations under the Exchange Act, together with exhibits furnishing certain additional information with respect to the Offer, and may file amendments thereto. If the Offer is completed, Purchaser will file a final amendment to the Schedule TO reporting promptly the results of the Offer pursuant to Rule 14d-3 under the Exchange Act. A copy of such documents, and any amendments thereto, may be examined at, and copies may be obtained from, the SEC in the manner set forth under Section 7 – “Certain Information Concerning Castlight – Available Information.”

You have received this Letter of Transmittal in connection with the offer of Purchaser, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Vera Whole Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), which is controlled by certain investment funds advised by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC, to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”) and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Shares” and, together with the Class A Shares, the “Shares”), of Castlight Health, Inc., Inc. a Delaware corporation (“Castlight”), at a price of $2.05 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest and subject to any required withholding taxes (the “Offer Price”), as described in the Offer to Purchase, dated January 19, 2021 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer to Purchase”) and this letter of transmittal (together with any amendments or supplements hereto, the “Letter of Transmittal”, and together with the Offer to Purchase the “Offer”).

You should use this Letter of Transmittal to deliver to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the “Depositary and Paying Agent”) Shares represented by stock certificates, or held in book-entry form on the books of Castlight, for tender.

IF DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ALL SUCH DOCUMENTS BE SENT BY PROPERLY INSURED REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED. IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.

All authority conferred or agreed to be conferred pursuant to this Letter of Transmittal shall not be affected by, and shall survive, the death or incapacity of the undersigned and any obligation of the undersigned hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, executors, administrators, trustees in bankruptcy, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the undersigned. Except as stated in the Offer to Purchase, this tender is irrevocable.

The undersigned understands that the acceptance for payment by Purchaser of Shares tendered pursuant to one of the procedures described in Section 3-“Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” of the Offer to Purchase and in the instructions hereto will constitute a binding agreement between the undersigned and Purchaser upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

INSTRUCTIONS

Forming Part of the Terms and Conditions of the Offer

1. Guarantee of Signatures. Except as otherwise provided below, all signatures on this Letter of Transmittal must be guaranteed by a financial institution (including most commercial banks, savings and loan associations and brokerage houses) that is a member in good standing of a recognized Medallion Program approved by the Securities Transfer Association, Inc., including the Security Transfer Agents Medallion Program, the New York Stock Exchange Medallion Signature Program and the Stock Exchanges Medallion Program (each, an “Eligible Institution”). Signatures on this Letter of Transmittal need not be guaranteed (a) if this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered owner(s) (which term, for purposes of this document, includes any participant in any of DTC’s systems whose name appears on a security position listing as the owner of such Shares) of Shares tendered herewith and such registered owner has not completed the box titled “Special Payment Instructions” or the box titled “Special Delivery Instructions” on this Letter of Transmittal or (b) if such Shares are tendered for the account of an Eligible Institution. See Instruction 5.

2. Delivery of Letter of Transmittal and Certificates or Book-Entry Confirmations. This Letter of Transmittal is to be completed by stockholders if Share Certificates are to be forwarded herewith. If tenders are to be made pursuant to the procedures for tender by book-entry transfer set forth in Section 3-“Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” of the Offer to Purchase, an Agent’s Message must be utilized. For any Eligible Institution, a manually executed facsimile of this document may be used in lieu of the original. Share Certificates representing all physically tendered Shares, or confirmation of any book-entry transfer into the Depositary and Paying Agent’s account at DTC of Shares tendered by book-entry transfer (“Book Entry Confirmation”), as well as this Letter of Transmittal duly completed and validly executed with any required signature guarantees, or an Agent’s Message in the case of a book-entry transfer, and any other documents required by this Letter of Transmittal, must be received by the Depositary and Paying Agent at its address set forth herein prior to the Expiration Date. Please do not send your Share Certificates directly to the Purchaser, Parent, or Castlight.

A duly completed and validly executed Letter of Transmittal (or, with respect to Eligible Institutions, a manually executed facsimile thereof) must accompany each such delivery of Share Certificates to the Depositary and Paying Agent.

The term “Agent’s Message” means a message, transmitted through electronic means by DTC to, and received by, the Depositary and Paying Agent and forming part of a Book-Entry Confirmation, which states that DTC has received an express acknowledgment from the participant in DTC tendering Shares which are the subject of such Book-Entry Confirmation that such participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of this Letter of Transmittal and that Purchaser may enforce such agreement against the participant. The term “Agent’s Message” also includes any hard copy printout evidencing such message generated by a computer terminal maintained at the Depositary and Paying Agent’s office.

THE METHOD OF DELIVERY OF SHARES, THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING DELIVERY THROUGH DTC, IS AT THE ELECTION AND RISK OF THE TENDERING STOCKHOLDER. DELIVERY OF ALL SUCH DOCUMENTS WILL BE DEEMED MADE AND RISK OF LOSS OF THE SHARE CERTIFICATES SHALL PASS ONLY WHEN ACTUALLY RECEIVED BY THE DEPOSITARY (INCLUDING, IN THE CASE OF A BOOK-ENTRY TRANSFER, BY BOOK-ENTRY CONFIRMATION). IF SUCH DELIVERY IS BY MAIL, IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT ALL SUCH DOCUMENTS BE SENT BY PROPERLY INSURED REGISTERED MAIL WITH RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED. IN ALL CASES, SUFFICIENT TIME SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO ENSURE TIMELY DELIVERY.

No alternative, conditional or contingent tenders will be accepted. All tendering stockholders, by execution of this Letter of Transmittal (or facsimile thereof), waive any right to receive any notice of the acceptance of their Shares for payment.

All questions as to validity, form and eligibility (including time of receipt) of the surrender of any Share Certificate hereunder, including questions as to the proper completion or execution of any Letter of Transmittal or other required documents and as to the proper form for transfer of any Share Certificates, will be determined by Purchaser (which may delegate power in whole or in part to the Depositary and Paying Agent) in its sole and absolute discretion which determination will be final and binding. Purchaser reserves the absolute right to reject any and all tenders determined by it not to be in proper form or the acceptance for payment of or payment for which may be unlawful. Purchaser also reserves the absolute right to waive any defect or irregularity in the surrender of any Shares or Share Certificate(s) whether or not similar defects or irregularities are waived in the case of any other stockholder. A surrender will not be deemed to have been validly made until all defects and irregularities have been cured or waived. None of Parent, Purchaser or any of their respective affiliates or assigns, the Depositary and Paying Agent, D.F. King & Co., Inc. (the “Information Agent”) or any other person will be under any duty to give notification of any defects or irregularities in tenders or incur any liability for failure to give any such notification.

4

Purchaser’s interpretation of the terms and conditions of the Offer (including the Letter of Transmittal and the Instructions thereto and any other documents related to the Offer) will be final and binding.

3. Inadequate Space. If the space provided herein is inadequate, the Share Certificate numbers, the number of Shares represented by such Share Certificates and/or the number of Shares tendered should be listed on a separate schedule attached hereto and separately signed on each page thereof in the same manner as this Letter of Transmittal is signed.

4. Partial Tenders (Applicable to Certificate Stockholders Only). If fewer than all Shares evidenced by any Share Certificate delivered to the Depositary and Paying Agent are to be tendered, fill in the number of Shares which are to be tendered in the column titled “Number of Shares Tendered” in the box titled “Description of Shares Tendered.” In such cases, new Share Certificate(s) for the remainder of such Shares that were evidenced by the old Share Certificate(s) but not tendered will be sent to the registered owner, unless otherwise provided in the appropriate box on this Letter of Transmittal, as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date. All Shares represented by Share Certificates delivered to the Depositary and Paying Agent will be deemed to have been tendered unless otherwise indicated.

5. Signatures on Letter of Transmittal; Stock Powers and Endorsements. If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered owner(s) of such Shares tendered hereby, the signature(s) must correspond with the name(s) as written on the face of the Share Certificate(s) without alteration or any other change whatsoever.

If any Shares tendered hereby are owned of record by two or more joint owners, all such owners must sign this Letter of Transmittal.

If any tendered Shares are registered in the names of different holder(s), it will be necessary to complete, sign and submit as many separate Letters of Transmittal (or, with respect to Eligible Institutions, a manually executed facsimile thereof) as there are different registrations of such Shares.

If this Letter of Transmittal or any Share Certificates or stock powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians, attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, such persons should so indicate when signing, and proper evidence satisfactory to Purchaser of their authority so to act must be submitted, or in lieu of such document, signatures must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution. See Instruction 1.

If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by the registered owner(s) of such Shares listed and transmitted hereby, no endorsements of Share Certificates or separate stock powers are required unless payment is to be made to, or Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for payment are to be issued in the name of, a person other than the registered owner(s), in which case the Share Certificates representing such Shares tendered by this Letter of Transmittal must be endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case, signed exactly as the name(s) of the registered owner(s) or holder(s) appear(s) on the Share Certificates. Signatures on such Share Certificates or stock powers must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

If this Letter of Transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered owner(s) of such Share(s) listed, the Share Certificate(s) must be endorsed or accompanied by the appropriate stock powers, in either case, signed exactly as the name or names of the registered owner(s) or holder(s) appear(s) on the Share Certificate(s). Signatures on such Share Certificates or stock powers must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution.

6. Transfer Taxes. Except as otherwise provided in this Instruction 6, Parent will pay any transfer taxes with respect to the transfer and sale of Shares to it or to its order pursuant to the Offer, after giving effect to the Transactions (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) (for the avoidance of doubt, transfer taxes do not include United States federal, state, local or foreign income or backup withholding taxes). If, however, payment of the purchase price is to be made to, or (in the circumstances permitted hereby) if Share Certificates not tendered or accepted for payment are to be registered in the name of, any person other than the registered owner(s), or if tendered Share Certificates are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing this Letter of Transmittal, the amount of any transfer taxes (whether imposed on the registered owner(s) or such person) payable on account of the transfer to such person will be deducted from the purchase price unless satisfactory evidence of the payment of such taxes, or exemption therefrom, is submitted.

Except as provided in this Instruction 6, it will not be necessary for transfer tax stamps to be affixed to the Share Certificates listed in this Letter of Transmittal.

7. Special Payment and Delivery Instructions. If a check for the purchase price is to be issued, and/or Share Certificates representing Shares not tendered or accepted for payment are to be issued or returned to, a person other than the signer(s) of this Letter of Transmittal or to an address other than that shown in the box titled “Description of Shares Tendered” above, the appropriate boxes on this Letter of Transmittal should be completed. Stockholders delivering Shares tendered hereby or by Agent’s Message by book-entry transfer may request that Shares not purchased be credited to an account maintained at DTC as such stockholder may designate in the box titled “Special Payment Instructions” herein. If no such instructions are given, all such Shares not purchased will be returned by crediting the same account at DTC as the account from which such Shares were delivered.

5

8. Requests for Assistance or Additional Copies. Questions or requests for assistance may be directed to the Information Agent at its addresses and telephone number set forth below or to your broker, dealer, commercial bank or trust company. Additional copies of the Offer to Purchase, this Letter of Transmittal and other tender offer materials may be obtained from the Information Agent as set forth below and will be furnished at Purchaser’s expense.

9. Backup Withholding. Under United States federal income tax laws, the Depositary and Paying Agent will be required to withhold a portion of the amount of any payments made to certain stockholders pursuant to the Offer or the Merger (as defined in the Offer to Purchase), as applicable. In order to avoid such backup withholding, each tendering stockholder or payee that is a United States person (for United States federal income tax purposes), must provide the Depositary and Paying Agent with such stockholder’s or payee’s correct taxpayer identification number (“TIN”) and certify that such stockholder or payee is not subject to such backup withholding by completing the attached IRS Form W-9. In general, if such stockholder is an individual, the TIN is such stockholder’s social security number. Failure to properly complete the IRS Form W-9 may require the Depositary and Paying Agent to withhold a portion of the amount of any payments made pursuant to the Offer or the Merger. The stockholder must write “Applied For” in Part I of the IRS Form W-9 if a TIN has not been issued and the stockholder has applied for a number or intends to apply for a number in the near future. If a TIN has been applied for and the Depositary and Paying Agent is not provided with a TIN before payment is made, the Depositary and Paying Agent will withhold 24% on all payments to such stockholders of any consideration due for their Shares. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, the tax liability of persons subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of tax withheld. If withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund or credit may be obtained from the IRS provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS. Failure to complete the IRS Form W-9 will not, by itself, cause Shares to be deemed invalidly tendered, but may require the Depositary and Paying Agent to withhold a portion of the amount of any payments made of the purchase price pursuant to the Offer. For further information concerning backup withholding and instructions for completing the IRS Form W-9 (including how to obtain a TIN if you do not have one and how to complete the IRS Form W-9 if such Shares are held in more than one name), consult the instructions to the enclosed IRS Form W-9.

Certain stockholders or payees (including, among others, corporations and certain foreign persons) are not subject to these backup withholding and reporting requirements. A stockholder who is a foreign individual or a foreign entity should complete, sign, and submit to the Depositary and Paying Agent the appropriate IRS Form W-8, which may be downloaded from the Internal Revenue Service’s website at the following address: http://www.irs.gov.

NOTE: STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE APPLICABILITY AND REFUND OF BACKUP WITHHOLDING TAX. FAILURE TO COMPLETE AND RETURN THE IRS FORM W-9 (OR APPLICABLE IRS FORM W-8) MAY RESULT IN BACKUP WITHHOLDING OF A PORTION OF ANY PAYMENTS MADE TO YOU PURSUANT TO THE OFFER OR THE MERGER. PLEASE REVIEW THE INSTRUCTIONS TO IRS FORM W-9 (OR TO APPLICABLE IRS FORM W-8) FOR ADDITIONAL DETAILS.

10. Lost, Destroyed, Mutilated or Stolen Share Certificates. If any Share Certificate has been lost, destroyed, mutilated or stolen, the stockholder should promptly notify Castlight’s stock transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Co., LLC. at (800) 937-5449. The stockholder will then be instructed as to the steps that must be taken in order to replace the Share Certificate. This Letter of Transmittal and related documents cannot be processed until the procedures for replacing lost, mutilated, destroyed or stolen Share Certificates have been followed.

11. Waiver of Conditions. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) and the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the conditions of the Offer may be waived by Purchaser in whole or in part at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion.

IMPORTANT: THIS LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL (OR A MANUALLY EXECUTED FACSIMILE COPY THEREOF) OR AN AGENT’S MESSAGE, TOGETHER WITH SHARE CERTIFICATE(S) OR BOOK-ENTRY CONFIRMATION AND ALL OTHER REQUIRED DOCUMENTS, MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE DEPOSITARY AND PAYING AGENT PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE.

Purpose of Form

An individual or entity (Form W-9 requester) who is required to file an information return with the IRS must obtain your correct taxpayer identification number (TIN) which may be your social security number (SSN), individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN), adoption taxpayer identification number (ATIN), or employer identification number (EIN), to report on an information return the amount paid to you, or other amount reportable on an information return. Examples of information returns include, but are not limited to, the following.

Form 1099-INT (interest earned or paid)

Form 1099-DIV (dividends, including those from stocks or mutual funds)

Form 1099-MISC (various types of income, prizes, awards, or gross proceeds)

Form 1099-B (stock or mutual fund sales and certain other transactions by brokers)

Form 1099-S (proceeds from real estate transactions)

Form 1099-K (merchant card and third party network transactions)

Form 1098 (home mortgage interest), 1098-E (student loan interest), 1098-T (tuition)

Form 1099-C (canceled debt)

Form 1099-A (acquisition or abandonment of secured property)

Use Form W-9 only if you are a U.S. person (including a resident alien), to provide your correct TIN.

If you do not return Form W-9 to the requester with a TIN, you might be subject to backup withholding. See What is backup withholding, later.

Cat. No. 10231X

Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018)

Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018)

Page 2

By signing the filled-out form, you:

1. Certify that the TIN you are giving is correct (or you are waiting for a number to be issued),

2. Certify that you are not subject to backup withholding, or

3. Claim exemption from backup withholding if you are a U.S. exempt payee. If applicable, you are also certifying that as a U.S. person, your allocable share of any partnership income from a U.S. trade or business is not subject to the withholding tax on foreign partners’ share of effectively connected income, and

4. Certify that FATCA code(s) entered on this form (if any) indicating that you are exempt from the FATCA reporting, is correct. See What is FATCA reporting, later, for further information.

Note: If you are a U.S. person and a requester gives you a form other than Form W-9 to request your TIN, you must use the requester’s form if it is substantially similar to this Form W-9.

Definition of a U.S. person. For federal tax purposes, you are considered a U.S. person if you are:

An individual who is a U.S. citizen or U.S. resident alien;

A partnership, corporation, company, or association created or organized in the United States or under the laws of the United States;

An estate (other than a foreign estate); or

A domestic trust (as defined in Regulations section 301.7701-7).

Special rules for partnerships. Partnerships that conduct a trade or business in the United States are generally required to pay a withholding tax under section 1446 on any foreign partners’ share of effectively connected taxable income from such business. Further, in certain cases where a Form W-9 has not been received, the rules under section 1446 require a partnership to presume that a partner is a foreign person, and pay the section 1446 withholding tax. Therefore, if you are a U.S. person that is a partner in a partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States, provide Form W-9 to the partnership to establish your U.S. status and avoid section 1446 withholding on your share of partnership income.

In the cases below, the following person must give Form W-9 to the partnership for purposes of establishing its U.S. status and avoiding withholding on its allocable share of net income from the partnership conducting a trade or business in the United States.

In the case of a disregarded entity with a U.S. owner, the U.S. owner of the disregarded entity and not the entity;

In the case of a grantor trust with a U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner, generally, the U.S. grantor or other U.S. owner of the grantor trust and not the trust; and

In the case of a U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust), the U.S. trust (other than a grantor trust) and not the beneficiaries of the trust.

Foreign person. If you are a foreign person or the U.S. branch of a foreign bank that has elected to be treated as a U.S. person, do not use Form W-9. Instead, use the appropriate Form W-8 or Form 8233 (see Pub. 515, Withholding of Tax on Nonresident Aliens and Foreign Entities).

Nonresident alien who becomes a resident alien. Generally, only a nonresident alien individual may use the terms of a tax treaty to reduce or eliminate U.S. tax on certain types of income. However, most tax treaties contain a provision known as a “saving clause.” Exceptions specified in the saving clause may permit an exemption from tax to continue for certain types of income even after the payee has otherwise become a U.S. resident alien for tax purposes.

If you are a U.S. resident alien who is relying on an exception contained in the saving clause of a tax treaty to claim an exemption from U.S. tax on certain types of income, you must attach a statement to Form W-9 that specifies the following five items.

1. The treaty country. Generally, this must be the same treaty under which you claimed exemption from tax as a nonresident alien.

2. The treaty article addressing the income.

3. The article number (or location) in the tax treaty that contains the saving clause and its exceptions.

9

Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018)

Page 3

4. The type and amount of income that qualifies for the exemption from tax.

5. Sufficient facts to justify the exemption from tax under the terms of the treaty article.

Example. Article 20 of the U.S.-China income tax treaty allows an exemption from tax for scholarship income received by a Chinese student temporarily present in the United States. Under U.S. law, this student will become a resident alien for tax purposes if his or her stay in the United States exceeds 5 calendar years. However, paragraph 2 of the first Protocol to the U.S.-China treaty (dated April 30, 1984) allows the provisions of Article 20 to continue to apply even after the Chinese student becomes a resident alien of the United States. A Chinese student who qualifies for this exception (under paragraph 2 of the first protocol) and is relying on this exception to claim an exemption from tax on his or her scholarship or fellowship income would attach to Form W-9 a statement that includes the information described above to support that exemption.

If you are a nonresident alien or a foreign entity, give the requester the appropriate completed Form W-8 or Form 8233.

Backup Withholding

What is backup withholding? Persons making certain payments to you must under certain conditions withhold and pay to the IRS 24% of such payments. This is called “backup withholding.” Payments that may be subject to backup withholding include interest, tax-exempt interest, dividends, broker and barter exchange transactions, rents, royalties, nonemployee pay, payments made in settlement of payment card and third party network transactions, and certain payments from fishing boat operators. Real estate transactions are not subject to backup withholding.

You will not be subject to backup withholding on payments you receive if you give the requester your correct TIN, make the proper certifications, and report all your taxable interest and dividends on your tax return.

Payments you receive will be subject to backup withholding if:

1. You do not furnish your TIN to the requester,

2. You do not certify your TIN when required (see the instructions for Part II for details),

3. The IRS tells the requester that you furnished an incorrect TIN,

4. The IRS tells you that you are subject to backup withholding because you did not report all your interest and dividends on your tax return (for reportable interest and dividends only), or

5. You do not certify to the requester that you are not subject to backup withholding under 4 above (for reportable interest and dividend accounts opened after 1983 only).

Certain payees and payments are exempt from backup withholding. See Exempt payee code, later, and the separate Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.

Also see Special rules for partnerships, earlier.

What is FATCA Reporting?

The Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA) requires a participating foreign financial institution to report all United States account holders that are specified United States persons. Certain payees are exempt from FATCA reporting. See Exemption from FATCA reporting code, later, and the Instructions for the Requester of Form W-9 for more information.

Updating Your Information

You must provide updated information to any person to whom you claimed to be an exempt payee if you are no longer an exempt payee and anticipate receiving reportable payments in the future from this person. For example, you may need to provide updated information if you are a C corporation that elects to be an S corporation, or if you no longer are tax exempt. In addition, you must furnish a new Form W-9 if the name or TIN changes for the account; for example, if the grantor of a grantor trust dies.

Penalties

Failure to furnish TIN. If you fail to furnish your correct TIN to a requester, you are subject to a penalty of $50 for each such failure unless your failure is due to reasonable cause and not to willful neglect.

10

Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018)

Page 4

Civil penalty for false information with respect to withholding. If you make a false statement with no reasonable basis that results in no backup withholding, you are subject to a $500 penalty.

Criminal penalty for falsifying information. Willfully falsifying certifications or affirmations may subject you to criminal penalties including fines and/or imprisonment.

Misuse of TINs. If the requester discloses or uses TINs in violation of federal law, the requester may be subject to civil and criminal penalties.

Specific Instructions

Line 1

You must enter one of the following on this line; do not leave this line blank. The name should match the name on your tax return.

If this Form W-9 is for a joint account (other than an account maintained by a foreign financial institution (FFI)), list first, and then circle, the name of the person or entity whose number you entered in Part I of Form W-9. If you are providing Form W-9 to an FFI to document a joint account, each holder of the account that is a U.S. person must provide a Form W-9.

a. Individual. Generally, enter the name shown on your tax return. If you have changed your last name without informing the Social Security Administration (SSA) of the name change, enter your first name, the last name as shown on your social security card, and your new last name.

Note: ITIN applicant: Enter your individual name as it was entered on your Form W-7 application, line 1a. This should also be the same as the name you entered on the Form 1040/1040A/1040EZ you filed with your application.

b. Sole proprietor or single-member LLC. Enter your individual name as shown on your 1040/1040A/1040EZ on line 1. You may enter your business, trade, or “doing business as” (DBA) name on line 2.

c. Partnership, LLC that is not a single-member LLC, C corporation, or S corporation. Enter the entity’s name as shown on the entity’s tax return on line 1 and any business, trade, or DBA name on line 2.

d. Other entities. Enter your name as shown on required U.S. federal tax documents on line 1. This name should match the name shown on the charter or other legal document creating the entity. You may enter any business, trade, or DBA name on line 2.

e. Disregarded entity. For U.S. federal tax purposes, an entity that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner is treated as a “disregarded entity.” See Regulations section 301.7701-2(c)(2)(iii). Enter the owner’s name on line 1. The name of the entity entered on line 1 should never be a disregarded entity. The name on line 1 should be the name shown on the income tax return on which the income should be reported. For example, if a foreign LLC that is treated as a disregarded entity for U.S. federal tax purposes has a single owner that is a U.S. person, the U.S. owner’s name is required to be provided on line 1. If the direct owner of the entity is also a disregarded entity, enter the first owner that is not disregarded for federal tax purposes. Enter the disregarded entity’s name on line 2, “Business name/disregarded entity name.” If the owner of the disregarded entity is a foreign person, the owner must complete an appropriate Form W-8 instead of a Form W-9. This is the case even if the foreign person has a U.S. TIN.

Line 2

If you have a business name, trade name, DBA name, or disregarded entity name, you may enter it on line 2.

Line 3

Check the appropriate box on line 3 for the U.S. federal tax classification of the person whose name is entered on line 1. Check only one box on line 3.

Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018)

Page 7

Line 5

Enter your address (number, street, and apartment or suite number). This is where the requester of this Form W-9 will mail your information returns. If this address differs from the one the requester already has on file, write NEW at the top. If a new address is provided, there is still a chance the old address will be used until the payor changes your address in their records.

Line 6

Enter your city, state, and ZIP code.

Part I. Taxpayer Identification Number (TIN)

Enter your TIN in the appropriate box. If you are a resident alien and you do not have and are not eligible to get an SSN, your TIN is your IRS individual taxpayer identification number (ITIN). Enter it in the social security number box. If you do not have an ITIN, see How to get a TIN below.

If you are a sole proprietor and you have an EIN, you may enter either your SSN or EIN.

If you are a single-member LLC that is disregarded as an entity separate from its owner, enter the owner’s SSN (or EIN, if the owner has one). Do not enter the disregarded entity’s EIN. If the LLC is classified as a corporation or partnership, enter the entity’s EIN.

Note: See What Name and Number To Give the Requester, later, for further clarification of name and TIN combinations.

How to get a TIN. If you do not have a TIN, apply for one immediately. To apply for an SSN, get Form SS-5, Application for a Social Security Card, from your local SSA office or get this form online at www.SSA.gov. You may also get this form by calling 1-800-772-1213. Use Form W-7, Application for IRS Individual Taxpayer Identification Number, to apply for an ITIN, or Form SS-4, Application for Employer Identification Number, to apply for an EIN. You can apply for an EIN online by accessing the IRS website at www.irs.gov/Businesses and clicking on Employer Identification Number (EIN) under Starting a Business. Go to www.irs.gov/Forms to view, download, or print Form W-7 and/or Form SS-4. Or, you can go to www.irs.gov/OrderForms to place an order and have Form W-7 and/or SS-4 mailed to you within 10 business days.

If you are asked to complete Form W-9 but do not have a TIN, apply for a TIN and write “Applied For” in the space for the TIN, sign and date the form, and give it to the requester. For interest and dividend payments, and certain payments made with respect to readily tradable instruments, generally you will have 60 days to get a TIN and give it to the requester before you are subject to backup withholding on payments. The 60-day rule does not apply to other types of payments. You will be subject to backup withholding on all such payments until you provide your TIN to the requester.

Note: Entering “Applied For” means that you have already applied for a TIN or that you intend to apply for one soon.

Caution: A disregarded U.S. entity that has a foreign owner must use the appropriate Form W-8.

Part II. Certification

To establish to the withholding agent that you are a U.S. person, or resident alien, sign Form W-9. You may be requested to sign by the withholding agent even if item 1, 4, or 5 below indicates otherwise.

For a joint account, only the person whose TIN is shown in Part I should sign (when required). In the case of a disregarded entity, the person identified on line 1 must sign. Exempt payees, see Exempt payee code, earlier.

Signature requirements. Complete the certification as indicated in items 1 through 5 below.

1. Interest, dividend, and barter exchange accounts opened before 1984 and broker accounts considered active during 1983. You must give your correct TIN, but you do not have to sign the certification.

2. Interest, dividend, broker, and barter exchange accounts opened after 1983 and broker accounts considered inactive during 1983. You must sign the certification or backup withholding will apply. If you are subject to backup withholding and you are merely providing your correct TIN to the requester, you must cross out item 2 in the certification before signing the form.

15

Form W-9 (Rev. 10-2018)

Page 8

3. Real estate transactions. You must sign the certification. You may cross out item 2 of the certification.

4. Other payments. You must give your correct TIN, but you do not have to sign the certification unless you have been notified that you have previously given an incorrect TIN. “Other payments” include payments made in the course of the requester’s trade or business for rents, royalties, goods (other than bills for merchandise), medical and health care services (including payments to corporations), payments to a nonemployee for services, payments made in settlement of payment card and third party network transactions, payments to certain fishing boat crew members and fishermen, and gross proceeds paid to attorneys (including payments to corporations).

5. Mortgage interest paid by you, acquisition or abandonment of secured property, cancellation of debt, qualified tuition program payments (under section 529), ABLE accounts (under section 529A), IRA, Coverdell ESA, Archer MSA or HSA contributions or distributions, and pension distributions. You must give your correct TIN, but you do not have to sign the certification.

Secure Your Tax Records From Identity Theft

Identity theft occurs when someone uses your personal information such as your name, SSN, or other identifying information, without your permission, to commit fraud or other crimes. An identity thief may use your SSN to get a job or may file a tax return using your SSN to receive a refund.

To reduce your risk:

Protect your SSN,

Ensure your employer is protecting your SSN, and

Be careful when choosing a tax preparer.

If your tax records are affected by identity theft and you receive a notice from the IRS, respond right away to the name and phone number printed on the IRS notice or letter.

If your tax records are not currently affected by identity theft but you think you are at risk due to a lost or stolen purse or wallet, questionable credit card activity or credit report, contact the IRS Identity Theft Hotline at 1-800-908-4490 or submit Form 14039.

For more information, see Pub. 5027, Identity Theft Information for Taxpayers.

Victims of identity theft who are experiencing economic harm or a systemic problem, or are seeking help in resolving tax problems that have not been resolved through normal channels, may be eligible for Taxpayer Advocate Service (TAS) assistance. You can reach TAS by calling the TAS toll-free case intake line at 1-877-777-4778 or TTY/TDD 1-800-829-4059.

Protect yourself from suspicious emails or phishing schemes. Phishing is the creation and use of email and websites designed to mimic legitimate business emails and websites. The most common act is sending an email to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft.

The IRS does not initiate contacts with taxpayers via emails. Also, the IRS does not request personal detailed information through email or ask taxpayers for the PIN numbers, passwords, or similar secret access information for their credit card, bank, or other financial accounts.

If you receive an unsolicited email claiming to be from the IRS, forward this message to phishing@irs.gov. You may also report misuse of the IRS name, logo, or other IRS property to the Treasury Inspector General for Tax Administration (TIGTA) at 1-800-366-4484. You can forward suspicious emails to the Federal Trade Commission at spam@uce.gov or report them at www.ftc.gov/complaint. You can contact the FTC at www.ftc.gov/idtheft or 877-IDTHEFT (877-438-4338). If you have been the victim of identity theft, see www.IdentityTheft.gov and Pub. 5027.

Visit www.irs.gov/IdentityTheft to learn more about identity theft and how to reduce your risk.

made to an IRA, Archer MSA, or HSA. The person collecting this form uses the information on the form to file information returns with the IRS, reporting the above information. Routine uses of this information include giving it to the Department of Justice for civil and criminal litigation and to cities, states, the District of Columbia, and U.S. commonwealths and possessions for use in administering their laws. The information also may be disclosed to other countries under a treaty, to federal and state agencies to enforce civil and criminal laws, or to federal law enforcement and intelligence agencies to combat terrorism. You must provide your TIN whether or not you are required to file a tax return. Under section 3406, payers must generally withhold a percentage of taxable interest, dividend, and certain other payments to a payee who does not give a TIN to the payer. Certain penalties may also apply for providing false or fraudulent information.

We have been engaged by Carbon Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Purchaser”) and a wholly owned subsidiary of Vera Whole Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), which is controlled by certain investment funds advised by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC, to act as Information Agent in connection with Purchaser’s offer to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”) and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Shares” and, together with the Class A Shares, the “Shares”), of Castlight Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Castlight”), at a purchase price of $2.05 per Share, net to the seller in cash without interest and subject to any required withholding taxes (such amount, the “Offer Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated January 19, 2022 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer to Purchase”), and the related letter of transmittal (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Letter of Transmittal” and, together with the Offer to Purchase, the “Offer”) enclosed herewith.

Carbon Merger Sub, Inc.
a wholly owned subsidiary of
Vera Whole Health, Inc.

Carbon Merger Sub, Inc. (“Purchaser”), a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Vera Whole Health, Inc. (“Parent”), a Delaware corporation, is offering to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Shares”) and Class B Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Shares” and, together with the Class A Shares, the “Shares”), of Castlight Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Castlight”), at a price of $2.05 per Share, net to the seller in cash, without interest thereon and subject to any required withholding taxes (the “Offer Price”), upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, dated January 19, 2022 (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Offer to Purchase”), and in the related letter of transmittal (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Letter of Transmittal”, and together with the Offer to Purchase, the “Offer”). Following the consummation of the Offer, and subject to the conditions described in the Offer to Purchase, Purchaser intends to effect the Merger described below.

THE OFFER AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS WILL EXPIRE AT ONE MINUTE AFTER 11:59 P.M., NEW YORK CITY TIME, ON FEBRUARY 16, 2022, UNLESS THE OFFER IS EXTENDED OR EARLIER TERMINATED (THE “OFFER EXPIRATION TIME”).

The purpose of the Offer is for Parent, through Purchaser, to acquire all of the equity interests in Castlight. Certain investment funds advised by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC control both Parent and Purchaser.

The Offer is being made pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of January 4, 2022, among Parent, Purchaser and Castlight (together with any amendments or supplements thereto, the “Merger Agreement”). The Merger Agreement provides, among other things, that as promptly as practicable following the consummation of the Offer and provided that (1) any waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended (the “HSR Act”), applicable to the Transactions (as defined below) shall have been terminated or expired and any date before which each of the parties have committed in writing to any governmental authority not to close the Transactions shall have passed (the “Required Approvals Merger Condition”), and (2) no temporary restraining order, preliminary or permanent injunction or other judgment or order issued by any court of competent jurisdiction or other legal or regulatory restraint or prohibition (a “Legal Restraint”) preventing the consummation of the Merger (as defined below) will be in effect, nor will any action have been taken by any governmental authority of competent jurisdiction, and no statute, rule, regulation or order will have been enacted, entered, enforced or deemed applicable to the Merger, that in each case prohibits, makes illegal, or enjoins the consummation of the Merger (the “No Order Merger Condition”), Purchaser will merge with and into Castlight (the “Merger” and, together with the Offer and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Transactions”) in accordance with the provisions of Section 251(h) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) with Castlight continuing as the surviving corporation in the Merger. Because the Merger will be governed by Section 251(h) of the DGCL, assuming the requirements of Section 251(h) of the DGCL are met, no Castlight stockholder vote will be required to adopt the Merger Agreement and consummate the Merger. As a result of the Merger, each Share issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (other than Shares owned directly or indirectly by Parent or Purchaser, Shares held by Castlight as treasury stock immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger, and Shares owned by a holder who has properly demanded appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL and who has not effectively withdrawn such demand) will, at the effective time of the Merger, be cancelled and automatically converted into the right to receive an amount of cash equal to the Offer Price, without interest and subject to any required withholding taxes.

On January 4, 2022, the board of directors of Castlight (the “Castlight Board”) unanimously (1) determined that the Transactions are fair to and in the best interests of Castlight and its stockholders; (2) approved and declared advisable the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement by Castlight, and the consummation of the Transactions, the performance by Castlight of its covenants and other obligations in the Merger Agreement, and the consummation of the Transactions upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement; (3) resolved that the Merger Agreement and the Merger shall be governed by and effected under Section 251(h) of the DGCL and other relevant provisions of the DGCL; and (4) resolved to recommend that Castlight’s stockholders accept the Offer and tender their Shares to Purchaser pursuant to the Offer on terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement.

The Offer is not subject to any financing condition. The Merger Agreement provides that, among other things, the Offer is conditioned upon (a) there being validly tendered in the Offer and not withdrawn in accordance with the terms of the Offer (excluding Shares tendered pursuant to guaranteed delivery procedures that have not yet been delivered in satisfaction of such guarantee in accordance with Section 251(h) of the DGCL), a number of Shares that, together with any Shares beneficially owned by Purchaser or its “affiliates” (as defined in Section 251(h) of the DGCL), will, immediately after giving effect to the acceptance for payment of Shares in the Offer, equal at least one vote more than 50% of the aggregate voting power of all issued and outstanding Shares (the “Minimum Condition”), (b) any waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, having expired or been terminated (“HSR Clearance”), (c) the absence of (1) any Legal Restraint preventing the consummation of the Offer or the Merger, or (2) any statute, rule or regulation enacted or enforced, that would prohibit, make illegal or enjoin the consummation of the Offer or the Merger, and (d) the satisfaction or waiver by Purchaser of the other conditions to the Offer, as set forth in the Merger Agreement and Section 15—“Certain Conditions of the Offer” of the Offer to Purchase (each such condition, an “Offer Condition” and, collectively, the “Offer Conditions”). Following the consummation of the Offer, Purchaser intends to effect the Merger as promptly as practicable pursuant to Section 251(h) of the DGCL.

Subject to the applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, Purchaser expressly reserves the right to waive, in whole or in part, any Offer Condition or modify the terms of the Offer.

The Merger Agreement provides, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, that Purchaser: (i) will extend the Offer for any period required by any applicable law, any interpretation or position of the SEC, the staff thereof or any rules and regulations of the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) applicable to the Offer (including in order to comply with Rule 14e-1(b) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) (in respect of any change in the Offer Price); and (ii) if, as of any then-scheduled Offer Expiration Time (as defined above), any Offer Condition (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Offer Expiration Time) is not satisfied and has not been waived, will extend the Offer on one or more occasions, for one or more additional periods of up to ten (10) business days per extension (or such longer period as Castlight and Parent may agree in writing), to permit such Offer Conditions to be satisfied; provided, that if the sole such unsatisfied Offer Condition is the Minimum Condition (other than any Offer Conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Offer Expiration Time), Purchaser shall not be required (and Parent shall not be required to cause Purchaser) to extend the Offer thereafter for more than twenty (20) business days.

The offering period of the Offer will expire at one minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on February 16, 2022, unless the Offer is extended or earlier terminated by Purchaser (the “Expiration Date”) in accordance with the Merger Agreement. Shares tendered pursuant to the Offer may be withdrawn by following the procedures set forth in Section 4 - “Withdrawal Rights” of the Offer to Purchase for withdrawing Shares in a timely manner, at any time on or prior to the Expiration Date, and, if not previously accepted for payment at any time, after March 20, 2022, which is the date that is 60 days after the date of the commencement of the Offer, pursuant to the SEC regulations.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event will Purchaser and Parent be required to extend the Offer beyond 11:59 p.m., Pacific Time, on July 3, 2022 (the “Termination Date”); provided the Termination Date shall automatically be extended to September 1, 2022 (the “Extended Termination Date”) if the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) shall not have occurred prior to the Termination Date and all the conditions to Closing (other than the Required Approvals Merger Condition, the No Order Merger Condition and those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Offer Expiration Time) have been satisfied or waived. In addition, Purchaser shall immediately terminate the Offer upon the valid termination of the Merger Agreement.

If Purchaser and Parent extend the time period of the Offer, this extension will extend the time that you will have to tender your Shares.

Any extension of the Offer, waiver, amendment of the Offer, delay in acceptance for payment or payment or termination or amendment of the Offer will be followed, as promptly as practicable, by public announcement thereof, the announcement in the case of an extension to be issued not later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date.

For Castlight stockholders who are registered holders, the Letter of Transmittal, properly completed and duly executed, together with any required signature guarantees and any other documents required by the Letter of Transmittal (or in the case of a book-entry transfer, an Agent’s Message (as defined in Section 3—“Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” of the Offer to Purchase) in lieu of the Letter of Transmittal and such other documents) must be received by the Depositary and Paying Agent (as defined below) prior to one minute after 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date.

In order to tender your Shares in the Offer, you must (a) follow the procedures described in Section 3—“Procedures for Accepting the Offer and Tendering Shares” of the Offer to Purchase or (b) if your Shares are held through a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee (collectively, a “Nominee”), contact such Nominee and request that they effect the transaction for you and tender your Shares. For purposes of the Offer, Purchaser will be deemed to have accepted for payment and thereby purchased Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn if and when Purchaser gives written notice to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (“Depositary and Paying Agent”) of its acceptance for payment of those Shares pursuant to the Offer. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, payment for Shares accepted for payment pursuant to the Offer will be made by deposit of the Offer Price for those Shares with Depositary and Paying Agent, which will act as agent for the tendering stockholders for purposes of receiving payments from Purchaser and transmitting those payments to the tendering stockholders whose Shares have been accepted for payment. Under no circumstances will interest be paid on the Offer Price for Shares, regardless of any extension of the Offer or any delay in payment for Shares.

For a withdrawal of Shares to be effective, a written notice of withdrawal from such Castlight stockholder must be timely received by Depositary and Paying Agent at one of its addresses set forth on the back cover of the Offer to Purchase. Any notice of withdrawal must specify the name of such Castlight stockholder, the number of Shares to be withdrawn, the name of the registered holder of the Shares to be withdrawn (if different from that of the person who tendered those Shares), a guaranteed signature (if applicable), the name and number of the account at The Depository Trust Company to be credited with the withdrawn Shares (for Shares tendered pursuant to book-entry transfer procedures), and the certificate number(s) (if any). If a stockholder tenders Shares by giving instructions to a Nominee, the stockholder must instruct such Nominee to arrange for the withdrawal of those Shares. Additional details with respect to withdrawal rights are described in Section 4—“Withdrawal Rights” of the Offer to Purchase. All questions as to validity of the surrender of any certificates representing Shares (including questions as to the proper completion or execution of any required documentation) and any notice of withdrawal, will be determined by Purchaser in its sole and absolute discretion which determination will be final and binding.

The receipt of cash as payment for the Shares pursuant to the Offer or the Merger will be a taxable transaction for United States federal income tax purposes.

Exhibit 99(a)(5)(B) 

 

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

 

Vera Whole Health, Inc. Announces Commencement of the Tender Offer for All Outstanding Shares of Castlight Health, Inc.

NEW YORK, NYJanuary 19, 2022 – Vera Whole Health, Inc. (“Parent”, and together with its consolidated subsidiaries “Vera”) announced today that its affiliate, Carbon Merger Sub, Inc., (“Purchaser”), commenced the previously announced cash tender offer for all of the issued and outstanding shares of Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock (collectively, “Shares”) of Castlight Health, Inc. (NYSE: CLST) (“Castlight”) at a price of $2.05 per share, net to the seller, in cash, without interest and less applicable withholding taxes. The tender offer is being made pursuant to the merger agreement (the “Merger Agreement”) executed on January 4, 2022 and announced by Vera and Castlight on January 5, 2022. Funds advised by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC are the majority equity holders of Purchaser and its parent company, Vera.

The $2.05 per share all-cash tender offer represents a premium of approximately 35% to the 30-day volume-weighted average price, as well as a premium of approximately 25% over Castlight’s closing share price on January 4, 2022, the last trading day prior to announcement of the transaction with Castlight, and is being made pursuant to an Offer to Purchase, dated January 19, 2022.

A tender offer statement on Schedule TO that includes the Offer to Purchase and related Letter of Transmittal setting forth the terms and conditions of the tender offer has been filed today with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by Purchaser. Additionally, Castlight is filing a solicitation/recommendation statement on Schedule 14D-9 that will include the recommendation of Castlight’s board of directors that Castlight’s stockholders tender their shares in the tender offer.

The tender offer will expire one minute after 11:59 P.M., New York City time on February 16, 2022, unless the tender offer is extended in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. The completion of the tender offer is conditioned upon, among other things, (i) a minimum number of Shares validly tendered and not validly withdrawn in the tender offer such that, together with the number of Shares then owned by Purchaser or its affiliates (if any), Purchaser will have, immediately after giving effect to the acceptance of payment for Shares in the tender offer, at least one vote more than 50% of the aggregate voting power of all issued and outstanding Shares, (ii) expiration or termination of any waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvement Act of 1976 and (iii) other customary closing conditions.

Following the completion of the tender offer, and subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the remaining conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, the Purchaser will, as soon as practicable, merge with and into Castlight, with Castlight continuing as the surviving corporation and as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent, under Section 251(h) of the Delaware General Corporation Law, without prior notice to, or any action by, any other stockholder of Castlight. Upon completion of the transaction, Castlight will cease to be a publicly traded company.

D.F. King & Co., Inc. is acting as information agent for Castlight in the tender offer. American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC is acting as depositary and paying agent in the tender offer. Requests for documents and questions regarding the tender offer may be directed to D.F. King by telephone at (800) 591-8263.

Commitment Letter (the “Commitment Letter”)

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

Reference is made to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as the same may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among, Vera Whole Health, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Carbon Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Merger Sub”) and Carbon, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement.

 

1.

If and only if (a) all Offer Conditions have been satisfied or waived, (b) all conditions set forth in Section 7.1 of the Merger Agreement have been satisfied or waived (other than those conditions that by their terms are to be satisfied at the Closing, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver (to the extent permitted under the Merger Agreement) of such conditions) and the Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 2.6 of the Merger Agreement, the undersigned (the “Investor”) hereby agrees that, at and subject to the simultaneous consummation of the Closing, it will contribute, or cause to be contributed to Parent (directly, or indirectly through one or more parent companies of Parent, or otherwise), an aggregate amount, in cash in immediately available funds, of $338,000,000 (such amount, the “Equity Commitment”), which Equity Commitment shall be used by Parent to pay the Required Amounts, in each case, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement and not for any other purpose; provided that, (i) the Investor shall not, under any circumstances, be obligated to contribute to Parent more than the Equity Commitment and (ii) the Equity Commitment may be reduced by any other equity contributions made to Parent (or any of its direct or indirect parent entities) for such purpose on or after the date hereof and prior to or at the Closing; provided, further, that (x) any such reduction will occur concurrently with, and will be conditioned on the consummation of, the Closing and (y) in no event may the Equity Commitment be reduced in a manner that would adversely affect, impair, prevent or delay the consummation of the Transactions.

 

2.

The Investor’s obligation to fund the Equity Commitment will terminate automatically and immediately upon the earliest to occur of (a) the consummation of the Closing and the payment by Parent of the Required Amounts in accordance with the Merger Agreement, (b) termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms, or (c) the assertion in writing or filing, directly or indirectly, of a claim or Legal Proceeding (in either case, whether at law or in equity, in tort, contract or otherwise) by the Company or any of its Affiliates or any of their respective members, managers, officers, directors, agents, attorneys or other representatives (“Representatives”) on behalf of, and at the direction of, the Company, under or in respect of the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to have been made in connection herewith or therewith) against Parent, Merger Sub, the Investor or any Investor/Parent Affiliates, other than a Permitted Claim (in each case solely to the extent permitted by and subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement and this Commitment Letter). When used herein, a “Permitted Claim” means a claim or Legal Proceeding by the Company (i) against the Investor to enforce the Investor’s obligation to fund the Equity Commitment in accordance with the terms of Section 3 of this Commitment Letter or (ii) against Parent or Merger Sub under the Merger Agreement in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions thereof.

 

 

 

 

3.

This Commitment Letter shall be binding solely on the Investor and inure solely to the benefit of Parent, and nothing set forth in this Commitment Letter (other than as set forth in this Section 3 and Section 4) shall be construed to confer upon or give to any Person other than Parent any benefits, rights or remedies under or by reason of, or any rights to enforce or cause Parent to enforce, the Equity Commitment or any other provisions of this Commitment Letter; provided, however, that, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Company is hereby expressly made a third party beneficiary of the rights granted Parent hereby only for the purpose of seeking specific performance of Parent’s right to cause the Equity Commitment to be funded, or of Investor’s obligation to fund the Equity Commitment, under Section 1 of this Commitment Letter (solely to the extent that Parent can enforce the Equity Commitment pursuant to the terms hereof), and for no other purpose (including, without limitation, any claim for monetary damages hereunder). The Investor accordingly agrees, subject in all respects to Section 9.8(b) of the Merger Agreement, not to oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief on the basis that the Company has an adequate remedy at law or an award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or equity. Investor further agrees that the Company shall not be required to post a bond or undertaking in connection with seeking such order or injunction in accordance with the terms of Section 9.8(b) of the Merger Agreement. Parent’s creditors shall have no right to enforce this Commitment Letter or to cause Parent to enforce this Commitment Letter and, except as set forth in this Section 3 with respect to the Company and Sections 5 and 6 this Commitment Letter with respect to the Investor/Parent Affiliates, no Person that is not a party to this Commitment Letter is a beneficiary or has any rights under this Commitment Letter.

 

4.

The Investor may assign all or a portion of its obligations to fund the Equity Commitment to any co-investor, any Affiliate, any fund managed or otherwise controlled by or under common control with the Investor or any other Person; provided, however that any such assignment shall not relieve the Investor of its obligations hereunder unless and to the extent actually performed. Parent may not assign any of its rights or obligations set forth herein without the prior written consent of the Company and the Investor.

 

5.

Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Commitment Letter or any document or instrument delivered contemporaneously herewith, and notwithstanding the fact that the Investor may be a limited partnership or limited liability company, Parent, by its acceptance of the benefits of this Commitment Letter, covenants, agrees and acknowledges that no Person other than the Investor shall have any obligation under this Commitment Letter and no Permitted Claim may be asserted against any other Person other than as expressly set forth in the last sentence of Section 2 of this Commitment Letter. Accordingly, Parent agrees that, except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, it has no rights of recovery against, and no recourse hereunder or under any documents or instruments delivered in connection herewith or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith shall be had against, any former, current or future director, officer, agent, Affiliate, member, general or limited partner, manager, assignee, equityholder or employee of the Investor (or any of their successors or permitted assignees), or any Affiliate thereof or against any former, current or future director, officer, agent, employee, Affiliate, assignee, general or limited partner, equityholder, manager or member (or any of their successors or permitted assigns) of any of the foregoing (each, an “Investor/Parent Affiliate”), whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by or through a claim or Legal Proceeding, by virtue of any Law, or otherwise. The parties hereto expressly agree and acknowledge that no personal liability whatsoever shall attach to, be imposed on, or otherwise be incurred by any Investor/Parent Affiliate (other than Investor, the Company or CD&R LLC with respect to any applicable Permitted Claim as set forth in the last sentence of Section 2 of this Commitment Letter), as such, for any obligations of the Investor under this Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated hereby, under any documents or instruments delivered in connection herewith, in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith or therewith, or for any claim (whether at law or in equity, in tort, contract or otherwise) based on, in respect of, or by reason of, such obligations or their creation.

6.

Parent (i) further agrees that neither it nor any of its Affiliates shall have any right of recovery against the Investor or any Investor/Parent Affiliate, whether by piercing of the corporate veil, by a claim on behalf of Parent against the Investor or any Investor/Parent Affiliate, or otherwise, except for Parent’s right to be funded by the Investor under and to the extent provided in this Commitment Letter and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the Merger Agreement and (ii) hereby covenants and agrees that it shall not institute, and shall cause its Affiliates not to institute, any Legal Proceeding or bring any other claim (whether at law or in equity, in tort, contract or otherwise) arising under, or in connection with, the Merger Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby, or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection therewith, against the Investor or any Investor/Parent Affiliate, except for Parent’s right to be funded by the Investor under and to the extent provided in this Commitment Letter and subject to the terms and conditions hereof and of the Merger Agreement.

 

7.

Each party hereto hereby represents and warrants, with respect to itself, to each other party that (a) it is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the Laws of the jurisdiction of its formation; (b) it has all necessary power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Commitment Letter in accordance with the terms hereof; (c) the execution, delivery and performance of this Commitment Letter have been duly authorized by all necessary action and do not conflict with, contravene or result in any default, breach, violation or infringement (with or without notice or lapse of time or both) of any provision of such party’s charter, partnership agreement, operating agreement or similar organizational documents or any law, regulation, rule, decree, order or judgment; and (d) this Commitment Letter constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such party enforceable against such party in accordance with its terms, subject to (i) the effects of bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, and (ii) general equitable principles (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law). The Investor hereby represents and warrants to Parent that it has and will have (x) the financial capacity to pay and perform its obligations under this Commitment Letter and (y) all funds necessary for it to fulfill its obligations hereunder, in each case for so long as this Commitment Letter shall remain in effect in accordance with Section 2 of this Commitment Letter.

All counterparts shall be construed together and shall constitute one and the same instrument. In addition, facsimile or PDF signatures of authorized signatories of any party shall be valid and binding and delivery of a facsimile or PDF signature by any party shall constitute due execution and delivery of this Commitment Letter.

 

9.

This Commitment Letter, and any Legal Proceeding arising out of or in respect of this Commitment Letter, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the internal laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements made and to be performed entirely within such state, without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws to the extent such principles or rules are not mandatorily applicable by statute and would require or permit the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto: (i) irrevocably consents to the service of the summons and complaint and any other process (whether inside or outside the territorial jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts) in any Legal Proceeding relating to this Commitment Letter, for and on behalf of itself or any of its properties or assets, in such manner as may be permitted by applicable Law, and nothing in this Section 9 will affect the right of any party hereto to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by applicable law; (ii) irrevocably and unconditionally consents and submits itself and its properties and assets in any Legal Proceeding to the exclusive general jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any federal court within the State of Delaware) (the “Chosen Courts”) in the event that any dispute or controversy arises out of this Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated hereby; (iii) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court; (iv) agrees that any Legal Proceeding arising in connection with this Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated hereby will be brought, tried and determined only in the Chosen Courts; (v) waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such Legal Proceeding in the Chosen Courts or that such Legal Proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same; and (vi) agrees that it will not bring any Legal Proceeding relating to this Commitment Letter or the transactions contemplated hereby in any court other than the Chosen Courts. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any Legal Proceeding in the Chosen Courts will be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable law.

 

10.

EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT ANY CONTROVERSY OR LITIGATION THAT MAY ARISE OUT OF OR RELATE TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR THE NEGOTIATION, VALIDITY OR PERFORMANCE OF THIS COMMITMENT LETTER, OR THE TRANSACTIONS, IS LIKELY TO INVOLVE COMPLICATED AND DIFFICULT ISSUES, AND THEREFORE EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT THAT SUCH PARTY MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING (WHETHER FOR BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORTIOUS CONDUCT OR OTHERWISE) DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS COMMITMENT LETTER. EACH PARTY ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT (i) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER; (ii) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS WAIVER; (iii) IT MAKES THIS WAIVER VOLUNTARILY; AND (iv) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 10.

In either event, you shall also destroy all written or electronic data developed or derived from the Confidential Information, and shall direct your Representatives to do likewise. Your compliance with this Section 9 shall be confirmed in writing to the Company by you upon request. In such event, the Transaction Information shall remain subject to the terms of this letter agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, you and your Representatives may retain Confidential Information (1) to the extent required to be retained by a regulator, bank examiner or pursuant to applicable law or regulation, compliance or document retention practices, for business continuity purposes or generally recognized professional standards or (2) that is automatically maintained on routine computer system backup tapes, disks or other backup storage devices as long as such backed-up information is not used, disclosed, accessed or otherwise recovered from such backup devices; provided that such materials referenced in this sentence shall remain subject to the terms of this letter agreement applicable to Confidential Information.

13.         You acknowledge that the Company may be entitled to the protections of the attorney work-product doctrine, attorney-client privilege or similar protections or privileges with respect to portions of the Confidential Information. The Company is not waiving, and will not be deemed to have waived or diminished, any of its attorney work-product protections, attorney-client privileges or similar protections or privileges as a result of the disclosure of such Confidential Information pursuant to this letter agreement. The Parties (a) share a common legal and commercial interest in such Confidential Information, (b) may become joint defendants in proceedings to which such Confidential Information relates and (c) intend that such protections and privileges remain intact should either Party become subject to any actual or threatened proceeding to which such Confidential Information relates.

14.         You acknowledge and agree that the Confidential Information has competitive value and is of a confidential and proprietary nature. Furthermore, the Parties acknowledge and agree that either Party may be irreparably injured by a breach of this letter agreement and that money damages may be an inadequate remedy for an actual or threatened breach of this letter agreement because of the difficulty of ascertaining the amount of damage that may be suffered by the aggrieved Party in the event that this letter agreement is breached.  Therefore, the Parties agree to the seeking of specific performance of this letter agreement and injunctive or other equitable relief in favor of the non-breaching Party as a remedy for any such breach, without proof of actual damages. The Parties further waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with any such remedy. Such remedy shall not be deemed to be the exclusive remedy for a breach of this letter agreement, but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity to the other Party.  In the event of a final, non-appealable order by a court of competent jurisdiction relating to a breach of this letter agreement, the non-prevailing Party shall reimburse the prevailing Party for all reasonable attorneys’ fees incurred by the prevailing Party incurred in connection with any litigation relating to such breach.

 

15.         No failure or delay by either Party in exercising any right, power or privilege under this letter agreement shall operate as a waiver thereof, and no single or partial exercise thereof shall preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder.

19.         This letter agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements entered into and performed solely within the State of Delaware, without regard to any principles of conflicts of law that would refer a matter to another jurisdiction.
