control number included in the voting instruction card provided to you by your bank or brokerage firm. If you hold your shares in street name and you do not receive a 16-digit control number, you should contact your bank, brokerage firm, broker dealer or other nominee holder to access the meeting and vote. Instructions should also be provided on the voting instruction card provided by your bank or brokerage firm. CAN I CHANGE MY VOTE AFTER I SUBMIT MY PROXY? Yes. If you are a registered stockholder, you may revoke your proxy and change your vote:

| • | by submitting a duly executed proxy bearing a later date; |

| • | by granting a subsequent proxy through the Internet or telephone; |

| • | by giving written notice of revocation to the Secretary of Talkspace prior to the Annual Meeting; or |

| • | by voting electronically at the Annual Meeting. |

Your most recent proxy card or Internet or telephone proxy is the one that is counted. Your virtual attendance at the Annual Meeting by itself will not revoke your proxy unless you give written notice of revocation to the Secretary before your proxy is voted or you vote electronically during the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held in street name, you may change or revoke your voting instructions by following the specific directions provided to you by your bank or broker, or you may vote electronically during the Annual Meeting. WHO WILL COUNT THE VOTES? A representative of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., our inspector of election, will tabulate and certify the votes. WHAT IF I DO NOT SPECIFY HOW MY SHARES ARE TO BE VOTED? If you submit a proxy but do not indicate any voting instructions, the persons named as proxies will vote in accordance with the recommendations of the Board. The Board’s recommendations are indicated on page 2of this proxy statement, as well as with the description of each proposal in this proxy statement. WILL ANY OTHER BUSINESS BE CONDUCTED AT THE ANNUAL MEETING? We know of no other business that will be presented at the Annual Meeting. If any other matter properly comes before the stockholders for a vote at the Annual Meeting, however, the proxy holders named on the Company’s proxy card will vote your shares in accordance with their best judgment. HOW MANY VOTES ARE REQUIRED FOR THE APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSALS TO BE VOTED UPON AND HOW WILL ABSTENTIONS AND BROKER NON-VOTES BE TREATED?
