Dear Fellow Stockholder:

We have previously sent you proxy material for the important Special Meeting of Premier, Inc. stockholders taking place on November 21, 2025, in connection with the proposed merger with Patient Square Capital (the "Merger"). Your Board of Directors unanimously recommends that you vote FOR the Merger and related proposals.

If you have any questions about, or need assistance with, voting your shares, please call our proxy solicitor at (877) 750-9501 (toll-free from the U.S. and Canada) or at +1 (412) 232-3651 (from other countries).

Please note that failing to vote will have the same effect as a vote against the Merger. Therefore, your vote is very important, regardless of the number of shares you own. If you have not already done so, please vote TODAY via the Internet, telephone, or by signing, dating, and returning the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form in the envelope provided. If you received this letter by email, you may simply click on the "VOTE NOW" link provided in the email.

On behalf of Premier, Inc., thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as "continue," "guidance," "expect," "outlook," "project," "believe" or other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the benefits of and timeline for closing the merger. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this communication, and on current expectations and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied on by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability. Actual events and circumstances are difficult or impossible to predict and may differ from assumptions. Many actual events and circumstances are beyond the control of the Company. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those discussed under "Risk Factors" in the Annual Report, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other documents filed with the SEC, including documents that will be filed with the SEC in connection with the merger, and the following: (1) the inability to consummate the merger within the anticipated time period, or at all, due to any reason, including the failure to obtain required regulatory approvals, satisfy the other conditions to the consummation of the merger (including the approval of the Company's stockholders) or complete contemplated financing arrangements, (2) the risk that any announcements relating to the merger could have adverse effects on the market price of the Company Class A Common Stock, (3) disruption from the merger making it more difficult to maintain business and operational relationships, including retaining and hiring key personnel and maintaining relationships with the Company's customers, vendors and others with whom it does business, (4) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstances that could give rise to the termination of the merger agreement entered into in connection with the merger, (5) risks related to disruption of the Company's current plans and operations or the diversion of management's attention from the Company's ongoing business operations due to the merger, (6) significant transaction costs and (7) the risk of litigation and/or regulatory actions related to the merger or unfavorable results from currently pending litigation and proceedings or litigation and proceedings that could arise in the future. The foregoing list of important factors is not exhaustive. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. Each such statement speaks only as of the day it was made. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or to revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, except as required by law. Furthermore, the Company cannot guarantee future results, events, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. Forward-looking statements in this communication may include, without limitation: statements about the potential benefits of the merger, anticipated growth rates, the Company's plans, objectives, expectations, and the anticipated timing of closing the merger.

Further information on factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated by the forward-looking statements is included in the Annual Report, Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q, Current Reports on Form 8-K and other filings made by the Company from time to time with the SEC. These filings, when available, are available on the investor relations section of the Company website at https://investors.premierinc.com or on the SEC's website at https://www.sec.gov. If any of these risks materialize or any of these assumptions prove incorrect, actual results could differ materially from the results implied by these forward-looking statements. There may be additional risks that the Company presently does not know of or that the Company currently believes are immaterial that could also cause actual results to differ from those contained in the forward-looking statements. The forward-looking statements included in this communication are made only as of the date hereof. The Company assumes no obligation and does not intend to update these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.
