Just as we are announcing the go-forward team today, we want to acknowledge with deep appreciation and thanks our leaders who will not be part of the go-forward entity. It’s not uncommon that in a merger of this size, there is duplication at the top . . . you only need one Chief Executive Officer, President, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Commercial Officer, Chief

Marketing Officer, General Counsel and SVP of Business Development . . . a lot of Chiefs already as our own Board used to say! Looking back, each took a chance on Livongo and signed on to a company with a mission to empower people with chronic conditions to live better and healthier lives. They lived our values, intensely focused on what was most important at any given time and accelerated the Company on this incredible and history-making journey. Although they will not be here as we enter a new stage, their legacy will continue to be a part of who we are and who we will become. Below is a brief statement from our leaders in their own words:

Jim Pursley: When Glen and Lee approached me about the idea behind Livongo in the Fall of 2013, I didn’t fully appreciate what the journey would entail. The last seven years have been full of long days, formidable challenges, and a lot of airline miles. They have also been full of wonderful memories, enduring friendships, and the abiding satisfaction that together, we built a company that has touched millions of people, helping them to live better and healthier lives. For that opportunity and countless more, I am profoundly grateful. Thank you. As you enter this next exciting chapter, I would encourage everyone to keep focused on our members and our clients. There are a lot of distractions that can take your eyes off our mission. Don’t let them. Remember, there are still millions of people around the globe that need you to succeed and are cheering you on…and they don’t even know you exist yet. Here’s to the belief that better is possible.

Erica Palsis: When people ask me what I love the most about Livongo, the answer brings a grin to my face – it is the people and our passion in creating a better healthcare experience for our Members. Everyone at Livongo truly wants to be at Livongo and works hard to further our mission. Over the last 3.5 years, I’ve experienced Livongo grow from a 100 person company with 30,000 Livongo Members to the 900 person company it is today with over 500,000 Livongo Members. Every one of you put in the hard work, which sometimes came in the form of early mornings, late nights, and weekend hours, to drive that success. What we’ve done together in such a short period of time is unprecedented. And what we’ve had at Livongo, and will continue to have at Teladoc, is special – it is a community, a family, where we’ve formed many, many friendships, had deep belly laughs, and made great memories. While I will miss Livongo dearly, I’m excited for the combined company’s future and I will be watching you all do amazing things.

Courtnee LeClaire: My two years with Livongo have been an extraordinary trek full of hard work, meaning and purpose. When I first met Glen, his passion and mission was effusive, I knew I had to be part of this incredible journey. What I didn’t expect were the huge strides we accomplished in such a short amount of time: adding new conditions to our product offering, more than doubling the number of Members we serve, taking the company through one of the largest digital health care public offerings ever and then merging with Teladoc to become the largest virtual care company in history. These accomplishments are a direct result of our people, shared passion and purpose.

Steve Schwartz: Being part of the Livongo team has been an absolutely amazing journey for me; from the first deal with Lilly to the acquisitions of MyStrength and Retrofit, and now the partnership with Dexcom and joining with Teladoc. In my 35 years of working for companies to

improve healthcare, I have never had the privilege of working with such a bright, high performing group of individuals as I have these last 4 years at Livongo. Equally exciting is to see the talent we have developed into the next generation of leaders stepping up and taking our business and member experience to a whole new level. Joining with Teladoc is an opportunity for those people and all of you to shine brighter, and enable the amazing platform we’ve built to help people around the world. I’m looking forward to the next chapter for me that will include greater focus on giving back to my community, providing guidance to young companies seeking to improve healthcare, and being present with my family especially with a new granddaughter and more grandchildren on the way. I’m planning on staying close, my phone number will stay the same so please don’t ever hesitate to reach me if you need anything. Thank you for having shared this amazing opportunity and don’t forget this is really just the beginning, millions of people with chronic conditions will be healthier because of what you do!

So What is Next? Welcome letters are being distributed to everyone at Livongo on October 16th and supports the commitment to bring the respective talent from both companies together. The merger is expected to close by the end of this month, subject to shareholder approvals and other customary closing conditions. Following completion of the merger, Teladoc Health plans to integrate the two companies using a thoughtful, phased approach. Both teams are committed to maintaining business continuity and service delivery to our Members throughout the integration process.

We will also be sending out additional communications over the next few weeks to keep you more closely informed of progress and the latest highlights.

Thank You! Thank you for building a company with a critical mission that drives each of us to care for our Members and always put them first. As we continue work on officially closing the transaction, we ask each of you to hold true to our values, stay focused on what is important, and accelerate with us on this incredible new journey. We appreciate your dedication to and the hard work entailed in creating a better system of health and care – and we are just getting started.

With gratitude,

Jenny, Lee, and Zane
