THE OFFER AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS WILL EXPIRE AT 5:00 P.M., NEW YORK CITY TIME, ON JANUARY 7, 2016, UNLESS THE OFFER IS EXTENDED OR TERMINATED (SUCH TIME, AS IT MAY BE EXTENDED, THE “EXPIRATION TIME”).

December 8, 2015

To Our Clients:

Enclosed for your consideration are the Offer to Purchase, dated December 8, 2015 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal,” and together with the Offer to Purchase, as they may be amended or supplemented from time to time, constitute the “Offer”), by Insperity, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), to purchase for cash shares of its common stock, par value $0.01 per share, pursuant to (i) auction tenders at prices specified by the tendering stockholders of not less than $43.50 nor greater than $50.00 per share (“Auction Tenders”) or (ii) purchase price tenders (“Purchase Price Tenders”), in either case upon the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Offer. After the Expiration Time, the Company will, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, determine a single price per share (the “Purchase Price”), which will be not less than $43.50 and not more than $50.00 per share, that it will pay for shares of its common stock validly tendered in the Offer and not validly withdrawn, taking into account the number of shares tendered pursuant to Auction Tenders and Purchase Price Tenders and the prices specified by stockholders tendering shares pursuant to Auction Tenders. Shares tendered pursuant to Purchase Price Tenders will be deemed to have been tendered at a price of $43.50 per share (which is the minimum price per share under the Offer) for purposes of determining the Purchase Price. Accordingly, elections to tender shares pursuant to Purchase Price Tenders may cause the Purchase Price to be lower and could result in the tendered shares being purchase at the minimum price of $43.50 per share. The Purchase Price will be the lowest price per share of not less than $43.50 and not more than $50.00 per share, at which shares have been tendered or have been deemed to be tendered in the Offer, that will enable the Company to purchase the maximum number of shares validly tendered in the Offer and not validly withdrawn having an aggregate purchase price not exceeding $125 million. All shares purchased pursuant to the Offer will be purchased at the same Purchase Price regardless of whether the stockholder tendered at a lower price. However, because of the “odd lot” priority, proration and conditional tender provisions described in the Offer to Purchase, all of the shares tendered at or below the Purchase Price may not be purchased if more than the number of shares the Company seeks are validly tendered at or below the Purchase Price and not validly withdrawn. Only shares validly tendered at prices at or below the Purchase Price, and not validly withdrawn, will be purchased. Shares tendered but not purchased pursuant to the Offer will be returned promptly following the Expiration Time. See Sections 1, 3 and 4 of the Offer to Purchase.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, if the number of shares validly tendered at or below the Purchase Price and not validly withdrawn would result in an aggregate purchase price of more than $125 million, the Company will purchase shares: (i) first, from all holders of “odd lots” of less than 100 shares who validly tender all of their shares at or below the Purchase Price, and do not validly withdraw them (tenders of less than all of the shares owned, beneficially or of record, by such “odd lot” shareholders will not qualify for this preference); (ii) second, from all other stockholders who validly tender shares at or below the Purchase Price (and do not validly withdraw such shares), on a pro rata basis with appropriate adjustments to avoid the purchase of fractional shares (except for stockholders who tendered shares conditionally for which the condition was not satisfied), until the Company has purchased shares resulting in an aggregate purchase price of $125 million; and (iii) third, only if necessary to permit the Company to purchase shares resulting in an aggregate purchase price of


$125 million, from holders who validly tender shares at or below the Purchase Price (and do not validly withdraw such shares) conditionally (for which the condition was not initially satisfied) by random lot, to the extent feasible. To be eligible for purchase by random lot, stockholders whose shares are conditionally tendered must have validly tendered and not validly withdrawn all of their shares prior to the Expiration Time. See Sections 1, 3, 4 and 6 of the Offer to Purchase.

Because of the “odd lot” priority, proration and conditional tender provisions described above, the Company may not purchase all of the shares that you tender even if you tender them at or below the Purchase Price. See Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase.

We are the holder of record (directly or indirectly) of shares held for your account. As such, we are the only ones who can tender your shares, and then only pursuant to your instructions. We are sending you the Letter of Transmittal for your information only; you cannot use it to tender shares we hold for your account.

Please instruct us, by completing the attached Instruction Form, as to whether you wish us to tender all or any portion of the shares we hold for your account on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

Please note the following:

1. If you wish to make an Auction Tender, you may tender your shares at a price not less than $43.50 nor greater than $50.00 per share, in increments of $0.25, as indicated in the attached Instruction Form, net to you in cash, less any applicable withholding tax and without interest. Alternatively, you may make a Purchase Price Tender by checking the appropriate box on the Instruction Form.

2. You should consult with your broker or other financial or tax adviser on the possibility of designating the priority in which your shares will be purchased in the event of proration.

3. The Offer is not conditioned upon any minimum number of shares being tendered. The Offer is, however, subject to a number of other terms and conditions. See Section 7 of the Offer to Purchase.

4. The Offer and withdrawal rights will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 7, 2016, unless the Offer is extended or terminated.

5. If you wish to tender shares at more than one price, you must complete a separate Instruction Form for each price at which you wish to tender shares. We must submit separate Letters of Transmittal or Agent’s Messages on your behalf for each price at which you are tendering shares, provided, however, that the same shares cannot be tendered at more than one price, unless previously validly withdrawn. See Section 4 of the Offer to Purchase.

6. If you are an Odd Lot Holder (as such term is defined in the Offer to Purchase) and you instruct us to tender on your behalf all of the shares that you own at or below the Purchase Price prior to the Expiration Time, and check the box captioned “Odd Lots” on the attached Instruction Form, the Company, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, will accept all such shares for payment before any proration of the purchase of other tendered shares.

7. If you wish to tender shares subject to the condition that all or a specified minimum number of your shares tendered must be purchased if any shares tendered are purchased, you may elect to do so by completing the section captioned “Conditional Tender” in the attached Instruction Form.

8. Any tendering stockholder or other payee who is a U.S. Holder (as defined in Section 14 of the Offer to Purchase) and who fails to complete, sign and return to the Depositary, or other withholding agent, the IRS Form W-9 included with the Letter of Transmittal (or such other Internal Revenue Service form as may be applicable)

 

2


may be subject to U.S. federal income tax backup withholding of 28% of the gross proceeds paid to the U.S. Holder or other payee pursuant to the Offer, unless such U.S. Holder establishes an exemption from backup withholding. In order to avoid backup withholding, any tendering stockholder who is a Non-U.S. Holder (as defined in Section 14 of the Offer to Purchase) must file an appropriate IRS Form W-8, attesting to such Non-U.S. Holder’s exemption from backup withholding. The form can be obtained from the IRS website at www.irs.gov. See Sections 3 and 14 of the Offer to Purchase

If you wish to have us tender all or any portion of your shares, please so instruct us by completing, executing, detaching and returning to us the attached Instruction Form. An envelope to return your Instruction Form to us is enclosed.

If you authorize us to tender your shares, we will tender all your shares unless you specify otherwise on the attached Instruction Form.

Your prompt action is requested. Your Instruction Form should be forwarded to us in ample time to permit us to submit a tender on your behalf prior to the Expiration Time. Please note that the Offer and withdrawal rights will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on January 7, 2016, unless the Offer is extended or terminated.

The Offer is not being made to, nor will tenders be accepted from or on behalf of, stockholders in any jurisdiction in which the making or acceptance of offers to sell shares would not be in compliance with the laws of that jurisdiction. If the Company becomes aware of any such jurisdiction where the making of the Offer or the acceptance of shares pursuant to the Offer is not in compliance with applicable law, the Company will make a good faith effort to comply with the applicable law. If, after such good faith effort, the Company cannot comply with the applicable law, the Offer will not be made to (nor will tenders be accepted from or on behalf of) the stockholders residing in such jurisdiction. In any jurisdiction where the securities, blue sky or other laws thereof require the Offer to be made by a licensed broker or dealer, the Offer shall be deemed to be made on the Company’s behalf by the Dealer Manager (as defined in the Offer to Purchase) or by one or more registered brokers or dealers licensed under the laws of that jurisdiction.

Although the Company’s Board of Directors has approved the Offer, none of the Company’s Board of Directors, the Dealer Manager, the Information Agent or the Depositary has made, or is making, any recommendation to you as to whether to tender or refrain from tendering your shares or as to the price or prices at which you may choose to tender your shares. The Company has not authorized any person to make any such recommendation. You must make your own decisions as to whether to tender your shares and, if so, how many shares to tender and the price or prices at which you will tender them. In doing so, you should read carefully the information in, or incorporated by reference in, the Offer to Purchase and in the Letter of Transmittal, including the purposes and effects of the Offer. You are urged to discuss your decisions with your own tax advisers, financial advisers and/or brokers.

ODD LOTS

(See Section 1 of the Offer to Purchase and Box 6 of the Letter of Transmittal)

Under certain conditions, stockholders holding fewer than 100 shares may have their shares accepted for payment before any proration of other tendered shares. This preference is not available to partial tenders or to beneficial or record holders of 100 or more shares in the aggregate, even if these holders have separate accounts or certificates representing fewer than 100 shares. Accordingly, this section is to be completed only if shares are being tendered by or on behalf of a person owning, beneficially or of record, an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares. The undersigned either (check one box):

 

¨ is the beneficial or record owner of an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares, all of which are being tendered; or

 

¨ is a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee that (a) is tendering for the beneficial owner(s), shares with respect to which it is the record holder, and (b) believes, based upon representations made to it by the beneficial owner(s), that each such person is the beneficial owner of an aggregate of fewer than 100 shares and is tendering all of such shares.

In addition, the undersigned is tendering shares either (check one box):

 

¨ at the Purchase Price, as the same will be determined by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Offer (persons checking this box need not indicate the price per share above); or

 

¨ at the price per share indicated above in the section captioned “Auction Price Tender: Price (in Dollars) per Share at Which Shares are Being Tendered.”

CONDITIONAL TENDER

(See Section 6 of the Offer to Purchase and Box 6 to the Letter of Transmittal)

A tendering stockholder may condition his or her tender of shares upon the Company purchasing all or a specified minimum number of the shares tendered, as described in Section 6 of the Offer to Purchase. Unless at least the minimum number of shares you indicate below is purchased by the Company pursuant to the terms of the Offer, none of the shares tendered by you will be purchased. It is the tendering stockholder’s responsibility to calculate the minimum number of shares that must be purchased from the stockholder in order for the stockholder to qualify for sale or exchange (rather than distribution) treatment for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Stockholders are urged to consult with their own tax advisers before completing this section. No assurances can be provided that a conditional tender will achieve the intended U.S. federal income tax result for any stockholder tendering shares. Unless this box has been checked and a minimum specified, your tender will be deemed unconditional.

 

¨ The minimum number of shares that must be purchased from me/us, if any are purchased from me/us, is:                  shares.

If, because of proration, the minimum number of shares designated will not be purchased, the Company may accept conditional tenders by random lot, if necessary. However, to be eligible for purchase by random lot, the tendering stockholder must have tendered all of his or her shares and checked this box:

 

¨ The tendered shares represent all shares held by the undersigned.

 

 

EVERYONE WISHING TO GIVE INSTRUCTIONS HEREBY MUST COMPLETE THE FORM BELOW

The method of delivery of this document is at the election and risk of the tendering stockholder. If delivery is by mail, then registered mail with return receipt requested, properly insured, is recommended. In all cases, sufficient time should be allowed to ensure timely delivery.
