Talkspace) (the “Company”) is very pleased to offer you the position of Chief Executive Officer reporting to the Company's Board of Directors (the “Board”) with a start date of November 9, 2022 (your actual start date, the “Start Date”). This letter agreement (this “Agreement”), including the exhibits attached hereto, sets forth the terms and conditions of your employment with the Company.

Position and Duties. You shall devote your full working time, attention and best efforts to fulfill your duties to the Company and to further the business and interests of the Company. In connection with your new position, you will resign from all other boards of directors on which you serve as of the Start Date; provided that you shall be entitled to serve on civic, charitable, educational, public interest or public service boards, and manage your personal and family investments, to the extent such activities do not materially interfere, individually or in the aggregate, with the performance of your duties and responsibilities to the Company.

Salary. While you are employed by the Company, you will receive an annual salary of Six Hundred Thousand ($600,000) subject to tax and other withholdings as required by law, which will be paid semi-monthly in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures (your “Base Salary”). Your Base Salary will be subject to annual review by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”) and may be increased from time to time in accordance with normal business practice or taking into account any other relevant factors, at the sole discretion of the Board or the Committee.

Annual Bonus. While you are employed by the Company and starting for the Calendar year 2023, you will be eligible for an annual bonus under the Company’s annual incentive program (your “Annual Bonus”). Your target Annual Bonus will be equal to 100% of your Base Salary as in effect from time to time. Your Annual Bonus will be earned based on the achievement of both individual and Company goals as communicated to you by the Board or the Committee on an annual basis, and subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable program. For the 2023 calendar year, your annual bonus is guaranteed for at least the target Annual Bonus level of $600,000. You will have the opportunity to achieve up to a total of 150% of your target Annual Bonus based on achieving “maximum” level of achievement of the applicable performance goals as determined by the Board or the Committee for the applicable calendar year. Details on assessment, tracking, and eligibility is detailed in the Talkspace Handbook. In order to earn any Annual Bonus for a given calendar year, you must remain employed by the Company on the date such Annual Bonus is paid.

Initial Grant. Subject to approval by the Board or its Committee and your continued employment through the applicable grant date, you will receive an initial grant under the Talkspace, Inc. 2021 Incentive Award Plan (the “Plan”) (the “Initial Grant”). The Initial Grant shall be granted in the form of 1,250,000 restricted stock units and 500,000 stock options, a portion of which will be intended to qualify as “incentive stock options”. 25% of the shares underlying the Initial Grant will vest on the first anniversary of your Start Date, and as to the remaining 75% of the shares underlying the Initial Grant, in substantially equal installments on each of the 12 quarterly anniversaries thereafter, subject to your continued employment with the Company on the applicable vesting dates. The grant date applicable to the Initial Grant will be the later of December 1, 2022 and the Start Date, subject in each case to any applicable trading blackout periods. The exercise price applicable to the stock options will be equal to the closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. The terms and conditions of the Initial Grant shall be set forth in one or more separate award agreement(s) in a form(s) prescribed by the Company, to be entered into by the Company and you. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, the Initial Grant shall be governed in all respects by the terms of and conditions of the Plan and the applicable award agreement(s).

Annual Compensation: Beginning in March 2023, the Compensation Committee and Board will determine your salary, target annual bonus level and long-term equity compensation utilizing peer data from our third party benchmarking company/independent compensation consultant, as well as your personal and the Company’s relative performance, and establish the appropriate total annual target compensation levels to be applicable for each calendar year during which you remain employed by the Company. In no case will your salary be decreased below your 2022 salary of Six Hundred Thousand Dollars ($600,000). As part of that compensation package you will be eligible to receive an annual equity-based award with a target aggregate grant date value as determined by the Board or the Committee, subject to your continued employment with the Company on the applicable grant date (the “Annual Equity Award”). The Board or the Committee shall determine in its sole discretion the grant timing, amount, form(s) and mix, and such other terms and conditions, applicable to any such Annual Equity Award. Each Annual Equity Grant will be subject to the Board’s good faith determination that there are sufficient shares available under the Plan to make such Annual Equity Award. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, each Annual Equity Award shall be governed in all respects by the terms of and conditions of the Plan and the applicable award agreements. Currently, the Company awards annual equity compensation awards on March 1st of each calendar year. The Annual Equity Award for the 2023 performance cycle (the “2023 LTI Award”) shall be granted in the form of 1,000,000 restricted stock units and 400,000 stock options, and will

be granted on the same date that the Initial Grant is made, however the 2023 LTI Award will not start vesting until March of 2024.
