The following email was distributed to employees of SXC Health Solutions Corp. on April 18, 2012.

Good Morning SXC!

Big News!  And I mean really big news — Today marks the start of a whole new chapter for our company and for all of us. This morning before market open we announced that we will be merging with CatalystRx. Without a doubt, this transaction is the single most transformational event in the history of SXC! The corporate headquarters will remain in Lisle and I will continue to serve as Chairman and CEO, and Jeff Park will continue to serve as CFO of the combined company.

SXC and CatalystRx are a great strategic fit and a financially compelling combination — as two of the fastest-growing and highly complementary middle-market PBMs, we will create a leading provider of PBM services and technology solutions. This is absolutely a hand-in-glove fit. As you all know, SXC is the clear leader in our industry when it comes to systems, technology, scale, operations and flexibility. CatalystRx has a proven sales and customer service model, and a go-to-market strategy that has been time-tested and very successful. The combination of our two companies vaults the combined company to a whole new level of competitiveness!!! Our customers will benefit in a huge way from the combined strength of our two organizations — and this move takes us one large step closer to fulfilling our mission:  To become this industry’s premier pharmaceutical cost containment partner.

Many of you know that CatalystRx has been a long term healthcare information technology client of SXC’s. As CatalystRx has grown, so has SXC, and vice versa. We know them well and respect their management team and their company capabilities a great deal. 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.

In terms of the financials, we will combine to become a $13 billion company. We expect to close on the merger in the third quarter pending shareholder and regulatory approval. You can expect regular status updates on mySXC and through your manager.

Unquestionably, this event puts our combined companies in an amazing place at one of the most opportune times in our industry!

This morning, I will be holding an All-Hands meeting at 10:00 a.m. CST to provide additional details. Please dial in at (800) 789-1044 from available conference rooms if you are in an office. If you have a meeting scheduled, please pause to dial in. I look forward to talking with you later this morning!

Thank you… and let’s get ready for a great ride!

Mark Thierer

Chairman and CEO
