Am I entitled to vote if my shares are held in “street name”?

If your shares are held by a bank, brokerage firm or other nominee, you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in “street name.” If your shares are held in street name, the proxy materials are being made available to you by your bank, brokerage firm or other nominee, (the “record holder”),as the record holder, along with voting instructions.

This ensures that your shares will be properly voted at the Annual Meeting.
How are abstentions and broker non-votes treated?
Shares of our common stock represented by proxies that are marked “ABSTAIN,” or which constitute broker non-votes, will be counted as present at the meeting for the purpose of determining a quorum. Under the rules that govern brokers who have record ownership of shares that are held in its discretion“street name” for their clients, brokers may vote such shares on behalf of their clients with respect to “routine” matters (such as the ratification of auditors), but not with respect to non-routine matters (such as the election of directors, an advisory vote on executive compensation or a proposal submitted by a stockholder). If the proposals to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting include both routine and non-routine matters, the broker may turn in a proxy card for uninstructed shares that votes on the routine matters, but expressly states that the broker is not voting on non-routine matters. This is called a “broker non-vote” as to non-routine matters.
Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the results of the vote on the election of directors (Proposal 1), the advisory vote on executive compensation (Proposal 2) or the ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accounting firmErnst & Young LLP (Proposal 2), but not on the election of directors (Proposal 1)3).

What if a quorum is not present at the online meeting?

If a quorum is not present or represented at the meeting, the holders of a majority of the shares entitled to vote at the meeting who are present in person or represented by proxy, or the chairman of the meeting, may adjourn the meeting until a quorum is present or represented.  The time and place of the adjourned meeting will be announced at the time the adjournment is taken, and no other notice will be given.

The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for setting the strategic direction of the Company and Corporate Governance;for the day-to-day leadership and Qualitymanagement of Carethe Company, while the Chairman of the Board provides guidance to the Chief Executive Officer, directs the agenda for Board meetings and Patient Safety.  Consistent withpresides over meetings of the full Board. Another component of our corporate governance guidelinesleadership structure is the active role played by our independent directors in overseeing the Company’s business, both at the Board and Committee level.
11 of our current directors are considered independent within the meaning of the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (“(the “NYSE”) rules, our Board has determined that, as of the date of this Proxy Statement, nine out of its ten members are “independent,”, the non-independent membermembers being Jason Gorevic, our President and Chief Executive Officer.Officer, and Glen Tullman, who served as Executive Chairman of Livongo until our merger with Livongo in October 2020. In addition, all members of the Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees satisfy the applicable independence criteria of the SEC and NYSE. The Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate and that at least one member of the Audit Committee, Mr. Goldstein, is an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Item 407 of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC.

At least annually, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee discusses the structure and composition of the Board and reviews the current leadership structure. This is discussed with the full Board as part of the Board’s annual evaluation to assess its effectiveness and takes into account our current business plans and long-term strategy, as well as the particular makeup of the Board at that time.
The Board held the following meetings during 2015:  thirteen2020, either in person or by teleconference: 12 full-Board meetings; four Audit Committee meetings; sixnine Compensation Committee meetings; and onefour Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meeting.  Themeetings; and four Quality of Care and Patient Safety Committee was created during 2016.meetings.

Each director is expected to attend the Annual Meeting. All of our directors that were directors at the time of the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders (the “2020 Annual Meeting”) attended the 2020 Annual Meeting.
Non-employee Board members meet without management present at least quarterly, at regularly scheduled executive sessions. Mr. Snow, Chairman of the Board, presides over meetings of the non-employee and independent directors.

The purpose of these sessions is to promote open discussions among the independent directors concerning the business and affairs of the Company as well as matters concerning management, without any member of management present.

In 2020, the Compensation Committee engaged Radford, part of Aon, plc’s Rewards Solutions Practice (“Radford”), to assess and make recommendations with respect to the amount and types of compensation to provide our executives and directors. Radford reported directly to the Compensation Committee; however, our Chief Executive Officer consulted with Radford with respect to its assessments of the compensation of executive officers other than the Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee reviewed compensation assessments provided by Radford comparing our compensation to that of a group of peer companies within our industry and met with Radford to discuss compensation of our executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer, and to receive input and advice. The Compensation Committee has considered the adviser independence factors required under SEC rules as they relate to Radford and believes Radford’s work in 2020 did not raise a conflict of interest. For additional information regarding the role of our Chief Executive Officer and Radford in determining our executive and director compensation in 2020, please refer to the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis — Determination of Compensation.”

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

Teladoc is committed to the highest standards of integrity and ethics in the way it conducts business.  During 2015, the board adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which applies to all of our employees, officers and directors, including our chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and all other executive and senior officers.  Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics establishes our policies and expectations with respect to a wide range of business conduct, including the preparation and maintenance of our financial and accounting information, our compliance with laws and possible conflicts of interest.

Under our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, each of our directors and employees is required to report suspected or actual violations.  In addition, we have adopted separate procedures concerning the receipt and investigation of complaints relating to accounting or audit matters. These procedures have been adopted by the Board and are administered by the Audit Committee.

A copy of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available on our website at ir.teladoc.com by clicking through “Corporate Governance,” and may also be obtained without charge by contacting our corporate secretary at Teladoc, Inc., 2 Manhattanville Road, Suite 203, Purchase, New York 10577.  We intend to post any amendment to, or waiver from, our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (to the extent applicable to our chief executive officer, principal financial officer or principal accounting officer) on our website.

Identifying and Evaluating Director Nominees

The Board is responsible for selecting its own members.  It delegates the selection and nomination process to its Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, with the expectation that other members of the Board, and management, will be requested to take part in the process as appropriate.

Generally, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identifies candidates for director nominees in consultation with management, through the use of search firms or other advisors, through the recommendations submitted by stockholders or through such other methods as the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee deems to be helpful to identify candidates.  Once candidates have been identified, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee confirms that the candidates meet all of the minimum qualifications for director nominees established by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may gather information about the candidates through interviews, detailed questionnaires, comprehensive background checks or any other means that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee deems to be appropriate in the evaluation process.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee then meets as a group to

10


discuss and evaluate the qualities and skills of each candidate, both on an individual basis and taking into account the overall composition and needs of the Board.  Based on the results of the evaluation process, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends candidates for the Board’s approval as director nominees for election to the Board.

When assessing director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider such nominee’s qualifications, skills and attributes, including depth and breadth of professional experience and independence.  Such nominee must, at a minimum, have demonstrated exceptional ability and judgment and, to the extent it can be ascertained, be of the highest personal and professional integrity.  The Nominating and Governance Committee does not have a formal policy with respect to diversity.  However, the Board seeks to have a Board that reflects an appropriate balance of knowledge, experience, skills, expertise and diversity, as applicable to our industry.  The Board assesses its achievement of diversity through the review of Board composition as part of the Board’s annual self-assessment process. 

Stockholders may submit recommendations for director candidates to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee by sending the individual’s name and qualifications to our corporate secretary at Teladoc, Inc., 2 Manhattanville Road, Suite 203, Purchase, New York 10577, who will forward all recommendations to the Committee.  The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will evaluate any candidate recommended by stockholders against the same criteria and pursuant to the same policies and procedures applicable to the evaluation of candidates proposed by directors or management.

Board Role in Risk Oversight

The Board administers its risk oversight function directly and through the Audit Committee.its committees. The Board and the Audit Committee regularly discuss with management and the Company’s independent auditors, our major risk exposures, their potential financial impact on Teladoc Health and the steps we take to manage these risks.

In general, management is responsible for the day-to-day management of the risks Teladoc Health faces, while the Board, acting as a whole and through the Audit Committee, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, the Board has the responsibility to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. Senior management attends the regular meetings of the Board and is available to address questions and concerns raised by the Board on risk management-related and other matters.

This combination provides us with the focus, scope, expertise and continuous attention necessary for effective risk management.

The Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to risk management in the areas of financial reporting, internal controls, cybersecurity and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. In addition, the Audit Committee discusses policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management with management and the independent auditors.

The Audit Committee assists the Board with oversight of risk management by reviewing the Company’s financial statements and meeting with the Company’s independent auditors at regularly scheduled meetings of the Audit Committee, to review their reports on the adequacy and effectiveness of our internal control

15


systems and discusses with management the Company’s major financial risks and exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such risks and exposures.

Risks Related

In addition, our Compensation Committee assists our Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to Compensation Policiesthe management of risks arising from our compensation policies and Practices

programs, and retains outside compensation and legal experts for that purpose. In establishing and reviewing our compensation philosophy and programs, we consider whether such programs encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking. We believe that our executive compensation program does not encourage excessive or unnecessary risk taking.  This istaking or create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us, primarily due to the fact that our compensation programs are designed to encourage our executive officers and other employees to remain focused on both short-term and long-term strategic goals.

Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also assists our Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to the management of risks associated with the organization, membership and structure of the Board, succession planning for our directors and corporate governance. Our Quality of Care and Patient Safety Committee does so with respect to the management of risks associated with the quality of medical care delivered to our members, efforts to advance the quality of medical care provided and patient safety.
In order to better anticipate, identify, prioritize and manage the risks Teladoc Health faces, we have implemented an enterprise risk management (“ERM”) program. Our ERM program was developed under the oversight of our Board and management, and is designed to identify potential risks, ensure that those risks are managed with the appropriate risk appetite and provide reasonable means by which to measure achievement of Teladoc Health’s objectives. As part of our overall ERM program we established an ERM committee comprising certain members of management. The role of the ERM committee is to design, implement, execute and monitor our ERM practices, including review and approval of risk assessments and action plans for improvement activities, and facilitate periodic reporting to our Board and its committees. We believe our ERM program leads to enhanced corporate governance, improve our ability to respond to changing business demands and promote an open, positive and risk-aware culture at Teladoc Health. In 2020, our Board and its committees regularly reviewed the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s results, strategic direction and the direction of virtual care, as well as potential impacts on and actions with respect to consumers, customers, providers and competition.

Once candidates have been identified, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee confirms that the candidates meet all of the minimum qualifications for director-nominees established by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

purposes.DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

ClassifiedNon-Employee Director Compensation Policy
The Board’s non-employee director compensation policy is designed to provide a total compensation package that enables us to attract and retain, on a long-term basis, high-caliber non-employee directors. The Board may amend, modify or terminate the policy at any time. The policy is reviewed annually by the Compensation Committee and the full Board with reference to the policies of each of the members of a peer group of similar companies selected by the Compensation Committee in consultation with Radford, its independent compensation consultant.
Under the policy, all non-employee directors receive a mix of cash and equity compensation. Cash compensation consists of annual retainers earned for serving on our Board, with additional retainers earned for serving as members of the committees of our Board or as chairpersons of the Board or its committees. Cash retainers are prorated for partial years of service.
Equity compensation under the program consists of an initial equity award upon a non-employee director’s election or appointment to the Board and an annual equity award on the date of our annual meeting of stockholders to continuing non-employee directors who have served on the Board for at least six months. Initial equity awards issued are in the form of RSUs (“Initial RSUs”), which vest in three substantially equal annual installments following the date of grant. Annual equity awards issued are also in the form of RSUs (“Annual RSUs”), which vest on the earlier of the first anniversary of the grant date or the day immediately prior to the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders occurring after the date of grant. All outstanding unvested Initial RSUs and Annual RSUs also vest upon a change in control. The value of Initial RSUs and Annual RSUs is determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the NYSE on the date of the award. The Board has reserved discretion under the policy to pay all or a portion the foregoing equity awards in any combination of equity-based awards available for grant under the 2015 Incentive Plan or any other applicable equity incentive plan then-maintained by the Company.
Following the annual non-employee director compensation policy reviews undertaken by the Board, and after consultation with Radford, the Compensation Committee elected to revise the policy, effective January 1, 2021. When making these revisions, the Compensation Committee considered Radford’s analysis of compensation paid to directors of a peer group of companies that was consistent with the peer group used for purposes of determining executive compensation. Consistent with the program’s overall goal of maintaining a competitive total director compensation package that allows us to attract and retain high-caliber non-employee directors, Teladoc Health generally aims to position its director compensation at or near the 50th percentile of the peer group and to be reflective of Teladoc Health’s continued growth and shifts in market practice. The table below summarizes compensation provided under the policy during 2020 and to be paid under the policy as amended effective January 1, 2021.

Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employees Directors

In accordance with our Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (ourWe maintain a Deferred Compensation Plan for Non-Employee Directors (theCertificateDeferred Compensation Plan”) that permits our non-employee directors to defer payment of Incorporationall or a portion of the awards of restricted stock or RSUs granted to them for their service as a director. A participant’s election to defer receipt of these awards must generally be made prior to the year to which the stock award relates (or, for a newly nominated director, within 30 days following the date of the commencement of the director’s service as a director). Deferred awards are credited to an account in an equal amount of deferred stock units with dividend equivalent rights. Dividend equivalent rights entitle a participant, as of a dividend payment date, to have credited to the participant’s deferred compensation account under the plan a number of additional deferred stock units equal to the amount of any ordinary cash dividend paid by Teladoc Health on the number of shares of common stock equivalent to the number of deferred stock units in the participant’s deferred compensation account as of the record date for the dividend, divided by the fair market value of one share of common stock on the dividend payment date. Deferred stock units (including any additional deferred stock units resulting from dividend equivalent rights) are subject to the same vesting or other forfeiture conditions that would have otherwise applied to the deferred awards. With respect to each deferred stock unit granted under the Deferred Compensation Plan, Teladoc Health will issue to the participant one share of the Company’s common stock (or, at the election of the Compensation Committee, an equivalent cash amount based on the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date immediately preceding the payment date) on the first to occur of (i) within 90 days following the date that is 30 days, five years or ten years after the participant’s separation from service, as elected by the participant in the applicable deferral election, (ii) immediately prior to, on, or within 30 days following a change in control or (iii) upon the participant’s death. If the participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), the Board is divided into three classes with staggered, three-year terms.  The classes are as follows:

·

The Class I directors are Messrs. Gorevic, Mead and Outland, and are nominated for election at the upcoming Annual Meeting.

·

The Class II directors are Messrs. Felsenthal, Mawhinney, McKinley and Multani.  The terms of office of the Class II directors will expire at the 2017 annual meeting of Teladoc’s stockholders.

·

The Class III directors are Mr. Goldstein, Dr. Frist and Mr. Snow.  The terms of office of the Class III directors will expire at the 2018 annual meeting of Teladoc’s stockholders.

Our Certificate of Incorporation provides thatpayment will instead be made on the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolutionlater to occur of the Board.  Anyscheduled distribution date and the first day of the seventh month following the date of the participant’s separation from service (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) or, if earlier, the date of the participant’s death.

This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our named executive officers’ compensation. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, we ask our stockholders to vote “FOR” the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:
RESOLVED, that the Company’s stockholders hereby approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed in this proxy statement pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, the Summary Compensation Table and the other related tables and disclosures.”
Details concerning how we implement our compensation philosophy and structure our compensation programs to meet the objectives of our compensation program are provided in the section titled “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” set forth below in this proxy statement. In particular, we discuss how we design performance-based compensation programs and set compensation targets and other objectives to maintain a close correlation between executive pay and Company performance. The Compensation Committee reviewsbelieves that the material factssupport received from stockholders last year demonstrates that our stockholders strongly approve of all related-party transactions.the philosophy, strategy and objectives of our executive compensation programs. After considering this result and following our annual review of our executive compensation philosophy, the Compensation Committee decided to retain our overall approach to executive compensation. We believe our 2020 named executive officer compensation demonstrates Teladoc Health’s commitment to aligning executive pay with corporate performance, and that our executive compensation program is aligned with stockholder interests and worthy of continued stockholder support.
Potential Effects of the Vote
This vote is merely advisory and will not be binding upon the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee, nor will it create or imply any change in the duties of the Company, the Board or the Compensation Committee. The AuditCompensation Committee takeswill, however, take into account among other factors that it deems appropriate, whether the related-party transaction is on terms no less favorable to us than terms generally available in a transaction with an unrelated third party under the same or similar circumstances and the extentoutcome of the related party’s interestvote when considering future executive compensation decisions. The Board values constructive dialogue on executive compensation and other significant governance topics with the Company’s stockholders and encourages all stockholders to vote their shares on this important matter. Our Board has determined that providing a stockholder advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers every year is the most appropriate alternative for the Company, and therefore it is expected that the next say-on-pay vote will occur at the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders.
Vote Required

The compensation of the named executive officers is approved annually by the Compensation Committee, in consultation with the Board. Our CEO typically provides annual recommendations to the Compensation Committee and discusses with the Compensation Committee the compensation and performance of our executive officers, other than himself. Our CEO bases his recommendations upon his review — formed both subjectively and objectively against individually developed goals — of the performance of the executive officers, the overall performance of Teladoc Health against its applicable corporate goals (as described further below in the section titled “— Elements of Compensation — Cash Bonuses”) and his assessment of the officer’s contributions to such performance, internal pay equity considerations, his assessment of the competitiveness of the market for each officer’s services and an annual self-evaluation performed by each named executive officer. The Compensation Committee evaluates any recommended compensation adjustments or awards to executive officers and ultimately determines executive compensation. In order to determine the CEO’s compensation, the Compensation Committee reviews the performance of the CEO and meets in executive session without him to evaluate the CEO’s performance.
Compensation Consultant
To support the Compensation Committee in fulfilling its duties, the Compensation Committee has retained a third-party compensation consultant to assist with its design and evaluation of compensation for our executive officers and directors. Pursuant to its charter, the Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain, and replace as needed, compensation consultants to provide independent advice to the Compensation Committee, as well as the sole authority to approve the consultants’ fees and other terms and conditions of retention. During 2020, the Compensation Committee retained Radford to provide executive and director compensation consulting services and provide recommendations for compensation. The Compensation Committee receives advice, data and recommendations from Radford pertaining to the appropriate amount, mix and vesting and other terms for Teladoc Health’s executive compensation programs, as well as peer group and market information that the Compensation Committee uses when determining whether Teladoc Health’s executive compensation is competitive in the market in which we compete for talent. In addition to the work Radford performs for the Compensation Committee in connection with the Compensation Committee’s annual review of our executive and director compensation practices, Radford periodically receives requests for information from the Compensation Committee, from our CEO or from our Chief Human Resources Officer pertaining to individual promotions, incentive compensation, potential personnel recruitment and other such situations in which market compensation insight may benefit Teladoc Health.
During 2020, Radford’s fees for services to Teladoc Health and Teladoc Health’s affiliates unrelated to executive and director compensation did not exceed $120,000. The Compensation Committee has considered the adviser independence factors required under SEC rules as they relate to Radford and does not believe Radford’s work in 2020 raised a conflict of interest.

Peer Group and Market Data
With the assistance of Radford, the Compensation Committee considers market data, in addition to other factors, to better inform its determination of the key elements of our compensation program. This assists with setting a framework for developing compensation programs that the Compensation Committee believes enables us to compete effectively for new employees and retain existing employees. In general, this market data consists of compensation information from both broad-based compensation surveys and company-specific peer group analyses.
The Compensation Committee selected the companies in the peer group because it believes that these companies compete with us for executive talent and are similar to us in revenue growth rate, market capitalization, industry and size. The Compensation Committee also determined that the companies in the peer group generally have executive officer positions that are comparable to Teladoc Health’s in terms of breadth, complexity and scope of responsibilities. In order to establish an appropriate peer group when reviewing and determining the 2020 compensation for our named executive officers to reflect the scope of work, business complexity and the nature of the roles where we compete for talent in a highly competitive market, the Compensation Committee considered healthcare technology and SaaS-based software solutions providers with market capitalizations of 0.3x to 3x and revenue of 0.5x to 4x, in each case compared to the Company at the time of approval. Accordingly, based on recommendations of Radford and the additional factors described above, the Compensation Committee used the following peer group in 2020:
2U, Inc.Medidata Solutions, Inc.
BioTelemetry, Inc.New Relic, Inc.
Cloudera, Inc.Okta, Inc.
Evolent Health, Inc.Omnicell, Inc.
HealthEquity, Inc.Splunk Inc.
HMS Holdings Corp.Twilio Inc.
HubSpot, Inc.Veeva Systems Inc.
Inovalon Holdings, Inc.WageWorks, Inc.
iRhythm Technologies, Inc.Zendesk, Inc.
LogMeIn, Inc.
The Compensation Committee reviews the peer group annually and removes companies that it no longer believes are comparable and, to the extent applicable, adds new comparable companies that have disclosed public information that the Compensation Committee can use to form comparisons, including compensation paid by companies in our peer group to executives in positions comparable to those held by our executive officers.
Radford provides the Compensation Committee with the market data ranging from the 25th to 75th percentile on a role-specific basis and for similar job levels. This data helps inform policy direction although the Compensation Committee does not use any specific percentile, retaining the discretion to position pay for each role based on a particular executive officer’s individual contribution, professional experience and potential growth. We believe our compensation levels and mix are appropriate given our rapid growth and allow Teladoc Health to compete effectively for talent while aligning executive officer incentives tightly with those of our stockholders.
While we compete for executive talent to some degree with companies that have revenues significantly in excess of those represented in the surveys and peer group, we believe that the companies represented in the surveys and peer group similarly compete with such larger companies and hence are an appropriate comparison for our market.
In December 2020, with input and advice from Radford, the Compensation Committee updated the peer group used for 2021 compensation purposes. In connection with the transformation of Teladoc Health following our merger with Livongo and significant growth of the Company, the Compensation Committee reviewed its existing peer group for appropriateness. The Compensation Committee determined to maintain the relative market capitalization and revenue criteria described above, but using the Company’s

28


then-current valuation and revenue. Radford recommended removing a number of companies from the peer group for purposes of 2021 compensation due to their significantly smaller market capitalization than Teladoc Health. Those companies included 2U, Inc., BioTelemetry, Inc., Cloudera, Inc., Evolent Health, Inc., HealthEquity, Inc., HMS Holdings Corp., Inovalon Holdings, Inc., iRhythm Technologies, Inc., New Relic, Inc. and Omnicell, Inc. In addition, LogMeIn, Inc. was acquired by Francisco Partners in August 2020, Medidata Solutions, Inc. was acquired by Dassault Systèmes in October 2019 and WageWorks, Inc. was acquired by HealthEquity, Inc. in August 2019, and therefore those three companies were removed from the peer group for purposes of 2021 compensation. Radford recommended adding 11 new companies that more closely align with the revenue and market capitalization of Teladoc Health — Autodesk, Inc., Cerner Corporation, DataDog, Inc., DexCom, Inc., DocuSign, Inc., Illumina, Inc., Intuitive Surgical, Inc., ResMed Inc., RingCentral, Inc. Square, Inc. and Workday, Inc. — all of which were selected because these companies compete with us for executive talent and are similar to us in revenue growth rate, market capitalization, industry and size. The Compensation Committee approved these recommendations, resulting in the following peer group for 2021 compensation purposes:
Autodesk, Inc.ResMed Inc.
Cerner CorporationRingCentral, Inc.
DataDog, Inc.Splunk Inc.
DexCom, Inc.Square, Inc.
DocuSign, Inc.Twilio Inc.
HubSpot, Inc.Veeva Systems Inc.
Illumina, Inc.Workday, Inc.
Intuitive SurgicalZendesk, Inc.
Okta, Inc.
Elements of Compensation

Base Salary

Salaries

We provide a base salary as a fixed source of compensation for the named executive officers, allowing them a degree of certainty relative to the portion of their variable compensation, which consists of performance bonuses based on achievement of short-term goals and equity awards with values that are generally tied to the price of our common stock. The Compensation Committee recognizes the importance of base salaries as an element of compensation that helps to attract and retain highly qualified executive talent.
Initial base salaries of our executive officers are established through arm’s-length negotiation at the time the individual executive officer is hired, taking into account his or her qualifications, experience, comparable market data and prior salary level. Thereafter, the Compensation Committee generally reviews, and adjusts as necessary, base salaries for each of our executive officers, at a minimum annually. The Compensation Committee generally targets the 25th to 75th percentile for executive officer cash compensation relative to Teladoc Health’s peer group, while retaining discretion to make adjustments as it deems appropriate to create compensation levels necessary to retain our existing named executive officers and to hire new executive officers when and as required.
Additionally, in setting base salary levels, the Compensation Committee considers a range of factors, including:

the individual’s anticipated responsibilities and experience, and cash compensation for similarly situated executives at our peer group companies;

the Compensation Committee members’ collective experience and knowledge in compensating similarly situated individuals at other companies;

the value of the executive officer’s existing equity awards; and

a general sense of internal pay equity among Teladoc Health’s executive officers.

29


Annually (customarily during its February meeting) the Compensation Committee reviews the base salaries of our executive officers against data received from Radford and may, based upon and following receipt of the advice of Radford, the recommendations of the CEO and of our Chief Human Resources Officer (other than with respect to their own respective base salaries) and in consultation with the Board, adopt certain market-based adjustments to take effect for the remainder of that year. Based upon these considerations, the Compensation Committee determined at its February 2020 meeting to increase the annual base salaries of certain named executive officers for 2020, effective March 1, 2020. The base salaries of Ms. Murthy and Mr. Sides were not increased for 2020 because they both joined the Company in mid-2019. The table below sets forth the annual base salaries during 2019 and 2020 for each named executive officer.

Adam Vandervoort365,000334,2569.2%
Stephany Verstraete325,000313,6353.6%
The Compensation Committee determined at its February 2021 meeting to increase the annual base salaries of the named executive officers for 2021, effective March 1, 2021, as follows: $675,000 for Mr. Gorevic; $460,000 for Ms. Murthy and Mr. Sides; $400,000 for Mr. Vandervoort; and $360,000 for Ms. Verstraete.
Cash Bonuses
To maintain a competitive compensation program, in addition to base salaries, Teladoc Health also provides compensation in the form of cash bonuses, which are generally targeted (like salaries) at the 25th to 75th percentile relative to Teladoc Health’s peer companies, though the Compensation Committee retains discretion to make adjustments as it deems appropriate, including to provide competitive compensation levels or encourage and reward key employee performance. The named executive officers are eligible to receive a target cash bonus equal to a percentage of their base salary based on, among other factors, achievement of corporate financial goals and operational objectives and subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee believes that the use of performance-based cash bonuses helps motivate our employees, including the named executive officers, to achieve our short-term financial and operational objectives, while making progress towards our longer-term growth and other goals.
The cash bonus program is based on objective, preestablished business goals with a focus on financial performance. These goals are approved by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of each year based on the Board-approved annual operating plan. Each participant’s award is determined by performance against a blend of corporate goals, and may be adjusted for named executive officers other than the CEO based on the Compensation Committee’s review of individual contributions.
In 2020, each of our named executive officers was provided with a target cash bonus amount determined as a percentage of such named executive officer’s base salary (“Bonus Target”) and based on performance and job level, as set forth below:
Name
Bonus Target (% of
Base Salary)

Stephany Verstraete50%70%30%

For 2020, the corporate performance component was measured for Teladoc Health on a standalone basis (not including the effects of any significant acquisition) against financial targets, weighted as follows: 60% revenue; 25% adjusted EBITDA; 8% annual EBITDA; and 7% fourth quarter EBITDA. EBITDA consists of net loss before interest, foreign exchange gain or loss, taxes, depreciation and amortization and loss on extinguishment of debt, and adjusted EBITDA for this purpose means EBITDA as adjusted by the Compensation Committee to exclude significant non-cash stock compensation expenses and the effects of certain extraordinary or non-recurring events. The portion of the annual bonus based on corporate performance may range from timea threshold of 50% to timea maximum of no more than 200% of the target bonus. In January 2021, the Compensation Committee determined that corporate performance goals for 2020 had been achieved at 200% of target.
The individual component of each applicable named executive officer’s award is not based on achievement of any pre-established performance goals. Rather, after the year is complete, the Compensation Committee reviews each named executive officer’s individual performance for 2020 and makesdetermines in a more qualitative way, after considering the recommendations made by the CEO (other than with respect to his own performance), what the Compensation Committee believes to be the appropriate payment level for the individual component of each named executive’s award.
In February 2021, the Compensation Committee reviewed our performance against our 2020 corporate objectives and each individual named executive officer’s performance and determined to pay our named executive officers the following bonuses for 2020 performance:

In determining 2020 cash bonus amounts for Ms. Murthy, Mr. Sides and Ms. Verstraete, the Compensation Committee recognized each individual’s significant contributions to Teladoc Health’s results during 2020.
Equity Awards
We believe that providing long-term incentives in the form of equity awards encourages the named executive officers to take a long-term outlook and provides them with an incentive to manage Teladoc Health from the perspective of an owner with an equity stake in the business. By providing opportunities for the named executive officers to benefit from future successes in Teladoc Health through the appreciation of the value of their equity awards, the Compensation Committee believes that equity awards align the named executive officers’ interests and contributions with the long-term interests of Teladoc Health’s stockholders. In addition, the Compensation Committee believes that offering meaningful equity ownership in Teladoc Health is helpful in retaining the named executive officers and other key employees. The Compensation Committee generally targets the 25th to 75th percentile relative to our peer companies in determining initial equity grants upon hire and then annually thereafter, but retains discretion to make adjustments as it determinesdeems appropriate, including to be reasonableprovide competitive compensation levels, align the interests of named executive officers with those of stockholders or encourage retention.
At the time of hire, executive officers are generally granted a mix of stock options and necessaryRSUs, both subject to reflectour standard vesting schedule as described below, the scopesize and precise terms of anwhich are determined at the time of hire of the individual executive officer’s performance, contributions, responsibilities,officer, taking into account the anticipated role, his or her qualifications, experience, comparable market data and prior salary level, position (in the case of a promotion) and market conditions.

As of January 1, 2016, Mr. Gorevic’s base salary was $500,000, Mr. Hirschhorn’s base salary was $345,050 and Mr. Vandervoort’s base salary was $309,000.

Annual Cash Bonuses

We also believe that a significant portion of our executives’ cash compensation should be based on the attainment of business goals established by the Board.  The Teladoc 2015 Incentive Award Plan allows the Board (andlevel.

During 2020, the Compensation Committee) to make formula-based cash incentive paymentsCommittee made grants of equity-based awards to each of our named executive officers based, in part, on their performance evaluations as presented by the CEO, and in

31


consultation with Radford after reviewing the compensation assessment. Based upon the achievementCompensation Committee’s review of established corporate goals.  For 2015,competitive market data, and taking into account the advice and information received from Radford and the CEO (except with respect to his own awards), the Compensation Committee established goals based on a mix of: (i) corporate performance, measured against targets for revenue, gross margin, member satisfaction, visit volume and the successful completiondetermined to award to each of our initial public offering; and (ii) individually assigned goals.  For 2015: Mr. Gorevic’s target bonus was 100% of his base salary; Mr. Hirschhorn’s target bonus was 65% of his base salary; and Mr. Vandervoort’s target bonus was 40% of his base salary.

Equity-Based Compensation

Equity-based compensation provides employees a common interest with our investors to increase the value of our common stock.  We have historically granted equity awards to our employees, including our named executive officers (i) RSUs that vest based on continued service and (ii) RSUs that vest based on performance measures (in each case not including the effects of any significant acquisition) tied to revenue, EBITDA and operating expense as a percentage of revenue (“PSUs”).

The vesting for RSUs and earned PSUs generally occurs over a three-year period, with 33% of the award vesting in substantially equal annual installments over such three-year period, while the form ofvesting for stock options to purchase shares of our common stock.  Our stock options typically have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, as determined by our board of directors, and vest as togenerally occurs over a four-year period, with 25% of the underlying sharesaward vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remainder vesting in 36 substantially equal monthly installments thereafter, subject, in each case, to an executive officer’s continued provision of services to Teladoc Health through each applicable vesting date. The Compensation Committee believes that annual grants of equity in the form of RSUs, which have value regardless of appreciation in Teladoc Health’s common stock, and PSUs, which tie our executives to key performance metrics, serve to align the interests of executive officers to Teladoc Health’s stockholders. Similarly, the Compensation Committee believes that initial grants to new hires of stock options, which have value only if Teladoc Health’s common stock appreciates after the date of grant, and in equal monthly installments overalso serve to align the following thirty-six months, subjectinterests of executive officers to the holder’s continued employment with us. From time to time, our board of directors may also construct alternate vesting schedules as it determines are appropriate to motivate

17


particular employees.Teladoc Health’s stockholders. Our stock options may be intended to qualify as incentive stock options to the extent permissible under applicable provisions of the Code.  Stock options

For 2020, the Compensation Committee determined that the annual equity grants to each of our named executive officers would be comprised 50% of time-vested RSUs and 50% of PSUs (based on the target number of shares of Teladoc Health’s common stock that could be earned). The Compensation Committee chose this allocation of equity for the long-term awards for our named executive officers because the RSU awards that vest based on continuous employment and the passage of time promote the retention of executives, while the PSUs align our executives’ interests with those of our stockholders by tying the ultimate payout to performance metrics that these named executive officers have the potential to meaningfully influence.
The grants of PSUs made in 2020 provide a target number of shares of Teladoc Health’s common stock that would be earned at the end of a one-year performance period (i) as to 60% of the target number of shares if our revenue for 2020 as reported in our financial statements in accordance with GAAP achieved its target (which we refer to as the “Revenue PSUs”), and (ii) 25% of the target number of shares if our adjusted EBITDA for 2020 achieved its target (which we refer to as the “EBITDA PSUs”). In addition, 15% of the target number of shares would be earned at the end of a two-year performance period if our operating expense as a percentage of revenue achieved its target (which we refer to as “Operating Expense Percentage PSUs”). No PSUs would be earned for performance below the threshold 50% level, and no more than 200% of the target number of PSUs could be earned for performance above the maximum level. One-third of any earned Revenue PSUs and EBITDA PSUs vest immediately on the performance determination date (i.e., approximately one year following the grant date) and the remaining two-thirds vest in substantially equal annual installments over the two-year period following the performance determination date. 50% of any earned Operating Expense Percentage PSUs vest immediately on the performance determination date (i.e., approximately two years following the grant date) and 50% vests on the first anniversary of the performance determination date.
In February 2021, the Compensation Committee determined that 200% of each award of Revenue PSUs, and EBITDA PSUs was earned. Because the performance period for the Operating Expense Percentage PSUs has not yet been completed, the Compensation Committee has not yet made any determination with respect thereto.
The equity-based awards granted to our named executive officers may be subject to accelerated vesting in certain circumstances, as described below in the section titled “Employment“— Employment, Severance and Change in Control Arrangements.”
The table below sets forth the RSUs and target number of PSUs granted to our named executive officers during 2020 and the number of PSUs that were determined to have been earned. The size of the equity awards granted to these named executive officers was determined based on the Compensation

The numbers presented here do not include Operating Expense Percentage PSUs granted in 2020 for which the performance period has not yet been completed.
Retirement, Health, Welfare and Additional Benefits
Our named executive officers are eligible to participate in our employee benefit plans and programs, including medical and dental benefits, flexible spending accounts and short- and long-term disability and life insurance, to the same extent as our other full-time employees, subject to the terms and eligibility requirements of those plans. We also sponsor a 401(k) defined contribution plan in which our named executive officers may participate, subject to limits imposed by the Code, to the same extent as our other full-time employees. Currently, we match 100% of contributions made by participants in the 401(k) plan up to 4% of eligible annual compensation. All matching contributions are fully vested when made. Additionally, pursuant to an offer letter agreement that we entered into with Mr. Sides in connection with the commencement of his employment in 2019, we agreed to reimburse Mr. Sides for customary expenses (including income taxes incurred as a result of this benefit) incurred in connection with relocating his principal residence closer to his work location, up to a maximum of $150,000. See the 2020 Summary Compensation Table for the amount paid to Mr. Sides in 2020 pursuant to this arrangement.
Employment Agreements
We consider maintenance of a strong management team essential to our success. To that end, Teladoc Health recognizes that the uncertainty that may exist among management with respect to their “at-will” employment with us could result in the departure or distraction of management personnel to our detriment. Accordingly, our Board and the Compensation Committee have determined that severance arrangements are appropriate to encourage the continued attention and dedication of certain members of our management team and to allow them to focus on the value to stockholders of strategic alternatives without concern for the impact on their continued employment. Each of our named executive officers has entered into an employment agreement or an executive severance agreement that entitles the named executive officer to severance payments and benefits in the event of certain terminations of employment or upon a change in control of Teladoc Health. These agreements are described below under “— Potential Payments to Named Executive Officers.upon Termination or Change in Control.

Tax Implications

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “(“CodeSection 162(m)”), generally limits Teladoc’s deductions forthe tax deductibility of compensation paid by a public corporation to its chief executive officer and certain other highly compensated executive officers to $1 million in the year the compensation becomes taxable to the executive. While the Compensation Committee has not adopted a formal policy regarding tax deductibility of compensation paid to our named executive officers, the Compensation Committee will consider tax deductibility under Section 162(m) as a factor in compensation structure to the extent applicable. We may from time to time pay compensation or grant equity awards to our executive officers, however, that may not be deductible when, for example,

33


we believe that such compensation is appropriate and in the best interests of our stockholders, after taking into consideration changing business conditions and/or the executive officer’s performance.
Stockholder Outreach and “Say-on-Pay” Advisory Vote
We submitted a non-binding proposal to our stockholders at the 2020 Annual Meeting. This proposal consisted of a non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of the named executive officers as disclosed in the proxy statement for the 2020 Annual Meeting. Approximately 84% of the votes cast (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes) were cast in favor of the non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of the named executive officers at the 2020 Annual Meeting. The Compensation Committee believes this indicates that our stockholders strongly support the philosophy, strategy and objectives of our executive compensation programs. After considering this result and following our annual review of our executive compensation philosophy, the Compensation Committee decided to retain our overall approach to executive compensation. The Compensation Committee intends to continue to monitor stockholder concerns, including the results of the annual non-binding advisory votes to approve the compensation of the named executive officers, in making future decisions affecting the compensation of the named executive officers.
Stock Ownership Guidelines
Teladoc Health encourages its executive officers and directors to purchase shares of Teladoc Health’s common stock and to maintain a minimum ownership level during his or her tenure to foster alignment with our investing stockholders. To reinforce this objective, we have adopted minimum stock ownership guidelines for certain of our executive officers and all of our non-employee directors. Pursuant to those guidelines, the individuals in the positions listed below must hold a number of shares of Teladoc Health’s common stock equal to the multiples specified below:
PositionMultiple Required
Chief Executive Officer3x base salary
Chief Operating Officer2x base salary
All Other Executive Officers1x base salary
Non-Employee Directors3x annual cash retainer
Our executive officers and non-employee directors subject to the ownership guidelines must be in compliance with this policy by the later of February 23, 2022 or five years after they become an executive officer or non-employee director of Teladoc Health, as applicable.
Insider Trading Policy
We maintain an Insider Trading Compliance Policy that applies to all securities issued by Teladoc Health. Company officers, directors and employees are prohibited from engaging in hedging transactions, including purchasing Teladoc Health stock on margin or engaging in transactions in puts, calls or other derivative securities designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of Teladoc Health’s equity securities. The policy also prohibits pledging Teladoc Health stock as collateral to secure loans.
Clawback Policy
The Compensation Committee has adopted a compensation clawback policy that applies to each of our current and former executive officers. Under the policy, recoupment of certain cash incentive compensation or equity compensation would be generally required in the event the Company restates its financial statements due to its material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under applicable securities laws. In the event of such restatement, the clawback policy provides for the recoupment of excess cash and equity incentive compensation received by the executive officer during the three years prior to the restatement that was granted, earned or vested based wholly or in part upon the attainment of any erroneous financial data. The policy gives the Compensation Committee discretion to determine whether a clawback of compensation should be initiated in any given case, as well as the discretion to make other determinations, including the amount of compensation to be clawed back when such amount is not clear from

34


the information in the restatement and the form of reimbursement to the Company. In order to comply with applicable law, the clawback policy will be updated or modified as the Compensation Committee determines is necessary to comply with final clawback rules adopted by the SEC pursuant to the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010.
Compensation Committee Report
The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the above Compensation Discussion and Analysis with management. Based on such review and discussion, the Compensation Committee has recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this proxy statement.
