April 18, 2012

I am writing to share some exciting news.

Today we announced that SXC has reached an agreement with Catalyst, a fast growing mid-market national PBM, to merge our operations and create a leading provider of PBM and technology services unlike any other in the market today. This combination will enable us to better address emerging trends and challenges in the healthcare industry. Attached please find a news release that outlines the details of this combination.

The combination of our two companies is a hand-in-glove fit. SXC is the clear leader in our industry when it comes to systems, technology, scale, operations and flexibility. Catalyst has a proven customer service model and a go-to-market strategy that has been time-tested and very successful. Many of you know that Catalyst has been a long term healthcare information technology client of SXC’s. We know them well and respect their capabilities. We expect that our long-standing relationship combined with the strength of our offerings, will lead to successful integration and many new opportunities for growth. Together, SXC and Catalyst will help manage the costs and complexities of the U.S. healthcare system, driving superior healthcare outcomes and enhancing value for employers, health plans, and consumers.

Mark Thierer, Chairman and CEO will continue to run the combined companies. Jeff Park will be CFO of the combined companies which will continue to be headquartered in Lisle, IL.

The merger is not expected to be completed until the second half of 2012; as such, our companies will continue to operate completely separately until this time.

Our relationship with you is crucial to our ability to serve our member and customer needs. I am excited about the opportunities created by the combination of SXC and Catalyst and look forward to continuing to work closely with you now and in the future to provide clinically-appropriate and cost effective medications to customers.

We will continue to keep you updated as the process of combining our companies moves forward. We thank you for your continued support.

If you have any questions regarding today’s announcement, please do not hesitate to contact me directly.

Sincerely,

Joel Saban

Executive Vice President
