SUPPLEMENT TO PROXY STATEMENT

This supplement to the definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed on July 29, 2019 (which we refer to as the “ definitive proxy statement ”) by WageWorks, Inc. (which we refer to as “ WageWorks ”, “ we ” or “ us ”) is being filed to supplement the definitive proxy statement as described pursuant to the Explanatory Note below.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

On June 26, 2019, WageWorks entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (which we refer to as the “ merger agreement ”) with HealthEquity, Inc. (which we refer to as “ HealthEquity ”) and Pacific Merger Sub Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of HealthEquity (which we refer to as “ Merger Sub ”), pursuant to which the parties agreed that, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein, HealthEquity will acquire WageWorks in a merger transaction (which we refer to as the “ merger ”). In connection with the merger, five purported stockholder complaints have been filed. Two complaints, captioned Kevin Nixon v. WageWorks, Inc., et al. , Case No. 1:19-cv-07120, and Botros Soliman v. WageWorks, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:19-cv-07419, were filed against WageWorks and the WageWorks board in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. Two complaints, captioned Charles Glass v. WageWorks, Inc., et al ., Case No. 3:19-cv-04532, and Kari Kreuger v. WageWorks, Inc., et al. , Case No. 3:19-cv-04903, were filed against WageWorks and the WageWorks board in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California. One complaint, captioned Jordan Rosenblatt v. WageWorks, Inc., et al. , Case No. 1:19-cv-01416, was filed against WageWorks and the WageWorks board in the United States District Court for the District of Delaware. We refer to these five actions by purported stockholders collectively as the “ purported stockholder actions .” The complaints generally allege that the definitive proxy statement filed by WageWorks omits material information necessary for WageWorks’ stockholders to make an informed decision regarding the merger, and assert claims for violation of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Rule 14a-9 promulgated thereunder. The actions captioned Charles Glass v. WageWorks, Inc., et al ., and Jordan Rosenblatt v. WageWorks, Inc., et al. are brought as putative class actions on behalf of all public stockholders of WageWorks. The action captioned Charles Glass v. WageWorks, Inc., et al. also purports to assert a claim for violation of 17 C.F.R. § 244.100. The complaints seek, among other things, to enjoin the proposed merger or, should it be consummated, to rescind it or award damages, as well as an award of the plaintiffs’ attorneys’ fees and costs in the actions.

WageWorks believes that no supplemental disclosures are required under applicable laws. However, to avoid the risk of the purported stockholder actions delaying or adversely affecting the merger and to minimize the expense of defending the purported stockholder actions, and without admitting any liability or wrongdoing, WageWorks is making certain disclosures below that supplement and revise those contained in the definitive proxy statement, which we refer to as the “ litigation-related supplemental disclosures .” The litigation-related supplemental disclosures contained below should be read in conjunction with the definitive proxy statement, which is available on the Internet site maintained by the Securities and Exchange Commission at http://www.sec.gov, along with periodic reports and other information WageWorks files with the Securities and Exchange Commission. WageWorks and the other named defendants have denied, and continue to deny, that they have committed or assisted others in committing any violations of law or breaches of duty to the WageWorks stockholders, and expressly maintain that, to the extent applicable, they have complied with their fiduciary and other legal duties and are providing the litigation-related supplemental disclosures below solely for the purpose of eliminating the burden and expense of further litigation, putting the claims that were or could have been asserted to rest, and avoiding any possible delay to the closing of the merger that might arise from further litigation. Nothing in the litigation-related supplemental disclosures shall be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the litigation-related supplemental disclosures set forth herein. To the extent that the information set forth herein differs from or updates information contained in the definitive proxy statement, the information set forth herein shall supersede or supplement the information in the definitive proxy statement. All page references are to pages in the definitive proxy statement, and terms used herein, unless otherwise defined, have the meanings set forth in the definitive proxy statement.

Forward-Looking Statements

This communication, and any documents to which WageWorks refers you in this communication, contains not only historical information, but also forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe-harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. These forward-looking statements represent WageWorks’ current expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including but not limited to the expected completion and timing of the proposed transaction, expected benefits and costs of the proposed transaction, management plans relating to the proposed transaction, strategies and objectives of WageWorks for future operations and other information relating to the proposed transaction.

You should read any such forward-looking statements carefully, as they involve a number of


risks, uncertainties and assumptions that may cause actual results to differ significantly from those projected or contemplated in any such forward-looking statement. Those risks, uncertainties and assumptions include, (i) the risk that the proposed transaction may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect WageWorks’ business and the price of the common stock of WageWorks, (ii) the failure to satisfy any of the conditions to the consummation of the proposed transaction, including the adoption of the merger agreement by the stockholders of WageWorks and the receipt of certain required regulatory approvals, (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement, (iv) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the proposed transaction on WageWorks’ business relationships, operating results and business generally, (v) the risks that the proposed transaction disrupts current plans and operations and the potential difficulties in employee retention as a result of the proposed transaction, (vi) the risks related to diverting management’s attention from WageWorks’ ongoing business operations, (vii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against WageWorks related to the merger agreement or the proposed transaction, (viii) unexpected costs, charges or expenses resulting from the proposed transaction, and (ix) other risks described in WageWorks’ filings with the SEC, such as its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Reports on Form 10-K. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date of this communication or the date of any document incorporated by reference in this document. Except as required by applicable law or regulation, WageWorks does not assume any obligation to update any such forward-looking statements whether as the result of new developments or otherwise.

Amending and restating the third sentence of the fourth paragraph on page 24 as follows.

Representatives from Evercore then discussed the strategic alternatives and contingency plans available to WageWorks in response to actions undertaken by purported stockholders relating to WageWorks’ business operations and actions that would potentially enhance stockholder value and the possibility that WageWorks might not become current in its SEC filings by March 19, 2019 and provided a summary of recent discussions and inquiries that certain third parties, including Sponsor A, had with Evercore or members of WageWorks management.

Amending and restating the first sentence of the second paragraph on page 26 as follows.

On February 13, 2019, Mr. Harvey, Edgar Montes, the President and Chief Executive Officer of WageWorks, and certain members of the WageWorks board held a dinner meeting with representatives from Sponsor C in attendance during which the parties discussed Sponsor C’s potential interest in a strategic transaction with WageWorks.

On May 17, 2019, Wilson Sonsini delivered a revised draft of the merger agreement to Willkie that contemplated, among other things, a 60 day “go-shop” period with an ability to continue discussions with a party that has submitted a written proposal during the “go-shop” period that is reasonably likely to lead to a superior proposal (which we refer to as an “ excluded party ”), and a termination fee of 3% of the equity value of WageWorks in the event WageWorks entered into an alternative proposal, or 1% of the equity value of WageWorks in the event WageWorks entered into an alternative proposal with an excluded party.

The section of the definitive proxy statement entitled “The Merger – Summary of Evercore’s Financial Analysis” beginning on page 40 is hereby amended by:

Amending and restating the second sentence of the fourth paragraph on page 40 as follows.

Evercore calculated terminal values for WageWorks by applying perpetuity growth rates of 2.0% to 5.0%, which range was selected based on Evercore’s professional judgment and experience given the nature of WageWorks’ industry, to a terminal year estimate of the unlevered, after-tax free cash flows that WageWorks was forecasted to generate based on the base case projections, with and without taking into account alternative business assumptions with respect to WageWorks’ hypothetical acquisitions furnished to Evercore by management of WageWorks.

Amending and restating the fourth sentence of the fourth paragraph on page 40 as follows.

Based on this range of implied enterprise values, WageWorks’ estimated net cash of approximately $145 million (calculated as the difference between estimated total debt of approximately $165 million and estimated cash, cash equivalents and customer obligations of approximately $310 million) as of June 30, 2019, and the number of fully diluted shares of WageWorks common stock (including promised but ungranted employee options), in each case as provided by WageWorks’ management, this analysis indicated a range of implied equity values per share of WageWorks common stock of $29.02 to $47.52 without taking into account alternative business assumptions with respect to WageWorks’ hypothetical acquisitions and $29.02 to $52.36 taking into account alternative business assumptions with respect to WageWorks’ hypothetical acquisitions, compared to the merger consideration of $51.35 per share of WageWorks common stock.


Amending and restating the second sentence of the last paragraph on page 40 as follows.

Evercore calculated terminal values for WageWorks by applying perpetuity growth rates of 2.0% to 5.0%, which range was selected based on Evercore’s professional judgment and experience given the nature of WageWorks’ industry, to a terminal year estimate of the unlevered, after-tax free cash flows that WageWorks was forecasted to generate based on the alternative scenario, with and without taking into account alternative business assumptions with respect to WageWorks’ hypothetical acquisitions furnished to Evercore by management of WageWorks.

Amending and restating the fourth sentence of the last paragraph on page 40 as follows.

Based on this range of implied enterprise values, WageWorks’ estimated net cash of approximately $145 million (calculated as the difference between estimated total debt of approximately $165 million and estimated cash, cash equivalents and customer obligations of approximately $310 million) as of June 30, 2019, and the number of fully diluted shares of WageWorks common stock (including promised but ungranted employee options), in each case as provided by WageWorks’ management, this analysis indicated a range of implied equity values per share of WageWorks common stock of $21.63 to $34.38 without taking into account alternative business assumptions with respect to WageWorks’ hypothetical acquisitions and $21.63 to $39.32 taking into account alternative business assumptions with respect to WageWorks’ hypothetical acquisitions, compared to the merger consideration of $51.35 per share of WageWorks common stock.
