REGISTRATION NO.: 333-181189

On May 16, 2012, SXC Health Solutions Corp. held its 2012 annual meeting of shareholders. The following are portions of the meeting transcript and slides presented at such meeting relating to the proposed merger with Catalyst Health Solutions, Inc.

*****

MARK THIERER (Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, SXC Health Solutions Corp.): Let me shift gears and talk about the major acquisition that we announced just a few short weeks ago, and that’s Catalyst Health Solutions. These are really hand-in-glove businesses, a very, very good fit, a very complementary fit. So from a distance Catalyst had a reputation as being the market leader in terms of sales, go-to-market strategies, and high levels of customer attention by having a high touch model on the service side as they sell to their client base.

SXC had a reputation of being the market leader in technology and one of the best operators in the business.

So what we’re doing with the merge of these companies is bringing together what we’re really good at and what they’re really good at, and creating a new market model, a truly scaled alternative to the entrench larger, traditional players.

And so on this bullet chart you see five key drivers. It is a comprehensive suite of products and services. Very broad set of clients in terms of diversity. I talked about having a very diverse model. We just got more diverse. Obviously the scale and the scope, our increased size brings leverage to the supply chain to drive down costs. That’s what this business is all about. And this whole notion of having a flexible and customized service offering, it will be central to our thesis going forward.

So we’ve put a little picture together to actually show you what this looks like. When we talk about being a client-centred PBM, SXC is going to bring the things we’ve always brought: superior claims management, rebate management tools, all kinds of technology and tools that you can break apart and implement in your client setting. That part hasn’t changed.

On the Catalyst side, we’re going to bring the high service element to their business model, including something called centres of excellence. They’re on site clinicians. They actually deploy highly talented clinicians in their client settings to help them manage their drug spend. And on site, you know, plan, design, set up and management. So it becomes a very high-touch, technology-driven model.

And when you stop to think about what every single client needs, and they all vary, this model is all about meeting the unique demands of a client on a single-client basis. And, you know, every client looks different. All these configurations of permutation, we will be the only company who can break this thing apart and organize on a client-specific basis a solution to meet their needs. It’s really tipping the traditional model, which is a bundled model on its head and configuring a customized solution. This is going to resonate in the market. We’ve already seen it on the SXC side. And we think as we emerge together we will be a redefining force in pharmacy benefit management.

When you think about the markets we’re going to target, this chart depicts SXC target markets before the merger. We were strong in health plans, strong in middle market, and that won’t change. We’ll be strong with health plans and strong in the middle market. Catalyst on the other hand was stronger in an employer segment and strong in the middle market. And we would see them from time to time and compete.

But now with this new combined model, our business strategy is to take it into an entirely new market. And now we’re talking about moving upstream and dealing with the largest players. Moving into the Fortune 100, and using this highly-scaled, customized model, best in breed in service, best in breed in technology, marry them together, and take it to the largest employers in the United States. For us it’s a new market that’s not been penetrated. And basically we’re going right into the backyard of the big three and looking to compete directly for their clients. And we will win some.

*****

JEFF PARK (Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, SXC Health Solutions Corp.): We announced the Catalyst acquisition, a $4.4 billion acquisition. Sixty-five per cent of that $4.4 billion will be funded through our shares and roughly $1.8 billion of it was… will be put forward by a debt raise.

*****

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE SPEAKER: Yeah, I was wondering, did you say you have all the close… the cuts… takeover of the Catalyst transaction?

JEFF PARK: Not yet. We haven’t closed the Catalyst transaction yet. The filings were put forward for review by the regulators. There’s really two different regulators that review the filings. The first will be the Federal Trade Commission. And they have 30 days to review the filing to decide whether they’d like to ask further questions. And then the second set of regulators will be the accounting bodies, the securities and exchange commissions. And they review the filings as well.

Once the regulators have completed their review then we’ll be able to put it to the shareholders for a vote. And the shareholders will have 30 to 45 days or so to make a decision. So we’ve given… our expectation is that will close in the second half of the year and so, so far everything’s on track. But, so it hasn’t closed.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE SPEAKER: What will be the cost of the transaction and how are you going to pay for it?

JEFF PARK: Yeah. So we… the purchase price of the business will be, in aggregate, around $4.4 billion. Sixty-five per cent of that purchase price will be funded through the issuance of SXC’s stock, roughly 33.5 million shares will be issued to Catalyst shareholders. And the remaining, effectively around $1.4 billion of purchase price will be funded through cash. As you can see we don’t have that much cash on the balance sheet. We’ll be borrowing $1.7 billion to provide enough cash, the liquidity for the purchase. And to retire the debt on the business Catalyst as well as $100 million of debt that SXC has.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE SPEAKER: And what is the current market cap of the Catalyst?

JEFF PARK: That’s a good question. I got to put it at about 4.2… 4.2 billion.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE SPEAKER: So it comes close to the price that you have paid.

JEFF PARK: Yeah. At the time we announced the transaction it was around a 28-per-cent premium to their share price. But after the announcement the share price moves up.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE SPEAKER: Okay. Thank you.

JEFF PARK: You’re welcome. Any other questions?

UNIDENTIFIED MALE SPEAKER: One question.

JEFF PARK: Hey, Andy. How are you?

ANDY: Good. I saw a press release on the Catalyst transaction, there’s a bit of a shareholder dispute going on.

JEFF PARK: Yeah.

ANDY: Is that just going to be noise at the end of the day?

JEFF PARK: Yes.

ANDY: Okay. It’s not going to hold up the transaction, I would think.

JEFF PARK: Right. Part of the… in any large acquisition that’s announced, unfortunately it’s become a bigger and bigger trend for shareholder lawsuits. Basically law firms that litigate on all transactions. It’s… they… There’s a number of different things that they’re looking to achieve, to assess that the company’s achieved its maximum value. And I think our current score is around 4 or 5 suits that are outstanding.

But this is… it’s unusual perhaps in Canada. It’s very normal, unfortunately, in the U.S. So we’d expect to have them settled and closed and done. They’re frivolous claims, candidly. Yeah.

Any other questions? Yes, Ma’am.

UNIDENTIFIED FEMALE SPEAKER: I was a shareholder of Biovail at the time that it was flying high, and it was in the 90s I think there’s stock price. And quite soon after it tanked, do you think that could happen to your company now, especially since you’re getting into debt big time?

JEFF PARK: I appreciate that.

MARK THIERER: I’ll answer that one.

JEFF PARK: Go ahead, Mark. You take it.

MARK THIERER: I don’t think this is… So that’s a great question. Did everybody hear the question? So this is what the leadership team’s job is, is to make sure that that doesn’t happen, and we… we figured a few things out, and one is if you keep your clients very happy and you never give them a reason to leave, then you’re not going to crash the plane. And so that’s what we measure. We measure client satisfaction and retention. We make sure we’ve incented our leadership team to make sure that the clients are happy.

And as long as you continue to save your clients a lot of money, in my experience in 30 years in this business, you could build a very durable business. And so I’m not familiar with the Biovail story. But we are heads down making sure our clients are happy and that nobody’s going anywhere. And that applies now to our new group of clients through our acquisition of Catalyst.

So we’re feeling pretty good about the outlook for the business, and we’re not really expecting the bottom to fall out. It’s a pretty sticky business. High retention rates and pretty good client satisfaction. So I think we’re in a pretty good place right now.
