Exhibit 99.2
| Friday, July 29, 2011 Merger information: Internal SharePoint website now available Earlier this week, Medco launched the Medco Merger Questions mailbox to provide an outlet for employee inquires about the company’s announced merger with Express Scripts. Many thanks to those of you who’ve already taken the time to submit your questions. The mailbox will be monitored on a regular basis and will remain open throughout the merger period. In addition, Medco has developed a centralized intranet resource (available beginning today) to keep you informed about what’s changing as a result of the proposed merger, how and when changes will occur and what it means to you. Specifically, the Merger Communications website features the following tools and resources: · Answers to frequently asked questions submitted via the Medco Merger Questions mailbox — we have received a very large number of thoughtful questions from employees. While it is not practical to provide individual answers in each case, we are combining recurring questions into categories, the most important of which we have included in an initial version of the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section. · Leadership messages · Links to other relevant information Click here to access the website and begin exploring the available materials, including responses to the first of the most frequently asked questions compiled from the Medco Merger Questions mailbox this week. As new information is added, you’ll receive alerts via Medco’s Global eMail channel. Careful Communications — A Reminder As a reminder, employees are asked to bear in mind that the company is in a period of very tight regulatory control and we must adhere to strict procedures to ensure that when communicating merger-related information to colleagues, clients and members we do not inadvertently breach securities laws and regulations. Therefore: · Please refrain from creating your own merger-related messages or Frequently Asked Questions documents for use by any internal or external groups. In addition to the formal internal and external announcements issued on Thursday, July 21, account teams and other groups have received approved materials. Further information will be available on the internal site detailed above. Creating new documents or rewriting |
| materials — including making even seemingly minor changes — could lead to a violation. · Please refer any media inquiries about the proposed merger to a member of our Public Affairs staff. Click on the following links to access those names and to re-familiarize yourself with Medco’s policies on media relations and social media (Media relations policy — Social media policy). Your assistance is appreciated. Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements This document contains “forward-looking statements” as that term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These statements, as they relate to Medco Health Solutions, Inc. or Express Scripts, Inc., the management of either such company or the transaction, involve risks and uncertainties that may cause results to differ materially from those set forth in the statements. No forward-looking statement can be guaranteed, and actual results may differ materially from those projected. Medco and Express Scripts undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements are not historical facts, but rather are based on current expectations, estimates, assumptions and projections about the business and future financial results of the pharmacy benefit management and specialty pharmacy industries, and other legal, regulatory and economic developments. We use words such as “anticipates,” “believes,” “plans,” “expects,” “projects,” “future,” “intends,” “may,” “will,” “should,” “could,” “estimates,” “predicts,” “potential,” “continue,” “guidance” and similar expressions to identify these forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially from the results contemplated by these forward-looking statements due to a number of factors, including, but not limited to, the possibility that (1) Medco and Express Scripts may be unable to obtain stockholder or regulatory approvals required for the merger or may be required to accept conditions that could reduce the anticipated benefits of the merger as a condition to obtaining regulatory approvals; (2) the length of time necessary to consummate the proposed merger may be longer than anticipated; (3) problems may arise in successfully integrating the businesses of Medco and Express Scripts; (4) the proposed merger may involve unexpected costs; (5) the businesses may suffer as a result of uncertainty surrounding the proposed merger; and (6) the industry may be subject to future risks that are described in SEC reports filed by Medco and Express Scripts. The foregoing list of factors is not exhaustive. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties that affect the businesses of Medco and Express Scripts described in their respective Annual Reports on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and other documents filed from time to time with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
