DEAR FELLOW STOCKHOLDERS:

The Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on May 13, 2021 (the “Annual Meeting”) of Jaguar Health, Inc. (“Jaguar”) was adjourned due to a lack of quorum. The adjourned meeting will be held at 8:30 a.m. Pacific Standard Time/11:30 a.m. Eastern Standard Time on Friday, June 11, 2021, at the offices of the Company at 200 Pine Street, Suite 400, San Francisco, CA 94104.

Stockholders have thus far strongly supported the proposals, but we need your vote in order to achieve the requisite quorum and the votes needed to approve a number of very important proposals. During the period of the adjournment, Jaguar will continue to solicit proxies from its stockholders with respect to the proposals set forth in the Proxy Statement. Please vote today to help us avoid the significant cost associated with continued proxy solicitation efforts.

WE NEED YOUR VOTE, NO MATTER HOW MANY OR HOW FEW SHARES YOU OWN

No action is required by any stockholder who previously delivered a proxy and who does not wish to revoke or change that proxy.

Jaguar’s Board of Directors believes that approval of Proposal 3 — the proposed increase in the number of authorized shares of Common Stock — will benefit us by providing flexibility in responding to future business opportunities and to potentially raise additional capital, if deemed in the best interest of the shareholders by the Board of Directors, from time to time to execute our business plans.

PLEASE VOTE TODAY

You can vote by internet, telephone or by mail. Please refer to the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form for instructions.

Stockholders requiring assistance with voting their shares are encouraged to contact Jaguar’s proxy solicitation firm, Georgeson, at 866-821-0284, Monday to Friday from 9:00 AM – 11:00 PM US Eastern Standard Time, and Saturday from 12:00 PM-6:00 PM US Eastern Standard Time.

Stockholders who have already voted do not need to, though stockholders may change and recast their votes. If a stockholder has previously submitted a proxy and does not wish to change their vote, such stockholder’s shares will be voted in accordance with their previously submitted proxy, unless properly revoked, and no further action is required by such stockholder. If you would like to speak to Jaguar management regarding voting, please send a request to hello@jaguar.health.

Sincerely,

Lisa A. Conte
Chief Executive Officer & President
May 19, 2021
