Castlight Health Reports Inducement Grant Under NYSE Listing Rules

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 4, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Castlight Health, Inc. (NYSE: CSLT), a leading health benefits platform provider, today reported an equity inducement award to Vijay Anand, Castlight's new Executive Vice President of Engineering.

In accordance with The New York Stock Exchange's Listed Company Manual Rule 303A.08, on September 3, 2020, the Compensation and Talent Committee of Castlight's Board of Directors granted Mr. Anand a stock option award to purchase 1,178,000 shares of Class B common stock and a restricted stock unit award for 760,870 shares of Class B common stock as a material inducement to join Castlight.

The stock options have an exercise price of $1.19 per share, which is equal to the closing price of Castlight's Class B common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on September 3, 2020.  The stock options and restricted stock units will both vest over a four-year period, with 25% of the shares vesting on the one-year anniversary of August 16, 2020, the vesting commencement date, and thereafter the remaining shares will vest quarterly thereafter, subject to Mr. Anand's continued service. 

All of the stock options and restricted stock units were granted outside the terms of Castlight's equity incentive plans in reliance on the employment inducement exemption under the NYSE's Listed Company Manual Rule 303A.08. Pursuant to the requirements of that rule, Castlight is issuing this press release.
