McKESSON CORPORATION
FINANCIAL NOTES
(UNAUDITED)
1. Significant Accounting Policies
     Basis of Presentation. The condensed consolidated financial statements of McKesson Corporation (“McKesson,” the “Company,” or “we” and other similar pronouns) include the financial statements of all majority-owned or controlled companies. Significant intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. In our opinion, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2007, and the results of operations for the quarters and six months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 and cash flows for the six months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006.
     The results of operations for the quarters and six months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. These interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements, accounting policies and financial notes included in our 2007 consolidated financial statements previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. As described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007, we realigned our businesses on April 1, 2007. This realignment resulted in changes to our reporting segments. On May 30, 2007, we provided financial information about the changes in our reporting segments, as it relates to prior periods, in a Form 8-K. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.
     The Company’s fiscal year begins on April 1 and ends on March 31. Unless otherwise noted, all references to a particular year shall mean the Company’s fiscal year.
     New Accounting Pronouncements. On April 1, 2007, we adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” Among other things, FIN No. 48 requires application of a “more likely than not” threshold for the recognition and derecognition of tax positions. It further requires that a change in judgment related to prior years’ tax positions be recognized in the quarter of such change. The April 1, 2007 adoption of FIN No. 48 resulted in a reduction of our retained earnings by $48 million.
     Annually, we file a federal consolidated income tax return with the U.S., and over 1,100 returns with various state and foreign jurisdictions. Our major taxing jurisdictions are the U.S. and Canada. In the U.S., the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) has completed an examination of our consolidated income tax returns for 2000 to 2002 resulting in a signed Revenue Agent Report (“RAR”), which is subject to approval by the Joint Committee on Taxation. The IRS and the Company have agreed to certain adjustments, principally related to transfer pricing. We have made adequate provisions related to the 2000 to 2002 IRS audit and, therefore, believe the outcome of this RAR is not likely to have a material adverse impact on our financial position, cash flows or results of operations. We further believe that we have made adequate provision for all remaining income tax uncertainties. In Canada, we are under examination for 2002 to 2005. In nearly all jurisdictions, the tax years prior to 1999 are no longer subject to examination.
     At April 1, 2007, our “unrecognized tax benefits,” defined as the aggregate tax effect of differences between tax return positions and the benefits recognized in our financial statements, amounted to $465 million. This amount increased by $23 million during the six months ended September 30, 2007. If recognized, $292 million of our unrecognized tax benefits would reduce income tax expense and the effective tax rate. During the next 12 months, it is reasonably possible that audit resolutions and expiration of statutes of limitations could potentially reduce our unrecognized tax benefits by up to $124 million.
     We continue to report interest and penalties on tax deficiencies as income tax expense. At April 1, 2007, before any tax benefits, our accrued interest on unrecognized tax benefits amounted to $95 million. This amount increased by $11 million during the six months ended September 30, 2007. We have no amounts accrued for penalties.
     Effective March 31, 2007, we adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 158, “Employers’ Accounting for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans.” SFAS No. 158 required the Company to record a transition adjustment to recognize the funded status of pension and postretirement defined benefit plans — measured as the difference between the fair value of plan assets and the benefit obligations — in our balance sheet after adjusting for derecognition of the Company’s minimum pension liability as of March 31, 2007.

FINANCIAL NOTES (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
     Subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K, it was determined that we incorrectly presented the SFAS No. 158 transition adjustment of $63 million, net, as a reduction of 2007 comprehensive income within our Consolidated Statement of Stockholders’ Equity for the year ended March 31, 2007. We will correct this error when we file the Company’s 2008 Annual Report on Form 10-K, increasing previously reported comprehensive income from $889 million to $952 million for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2007.
2. Acquisitions and Investments
     In 2007, we made the following acquisitions and investments:
    On January 26, 2007, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Per-Se Technologies, Inc. (“Per-Se”) of Alpharetta, Georgia for $28.00 per share in cash plus the assumption of Per-Se’s debt, or approximately $1.8 billion in aggregate, including cash acquired of $76 million. Per-Se is a leading provider of financial and administrative healthcare solutions for hospitals, physicians and retail pharmacies. Financial results for Per-Se are primarily included within our Technology Solutions segment since the date of acquisition. The acquisition was initially funded with cash on hand and through the use of an interim credit facility. In March 2007, we issued $1 billion of long-term debt, with such net proceeds after offering expenses from the issuance, together with cash on hand, being used to fully repay borrowings outstanding under the interim credit facility.
 
      The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the acquisition as of September 30, 2007:
         
(In millions)        
 
Accounts receivable
  $ 107  
Property and equipment
    41  
Other current and noncurrent assets
    92  
Goodwill
    1,252  
Intangible assets
    471  
Accounts payable
    (8 )
Other current liabilities
    (119 )
Deferred revenue
    (30 )
Long-term liabilities
    (71 )
 
     
Net assets acquired, less cash and cash equivalents
  $ 1,735  
 
      Approximately $1,252 million of the preliminary purchase price allocation has been assigned to goodwill. Included in the purchase price allocation are acquired identifiable intangibles of $402 million representing customer relationships with a weighted-average life of 10 years, developed technology of $56 million with a weighted-average life of 5 years, and trademarks and tradenames of $13 million with a weighted-average life of 5 years.
 
    Our Technology Solutions segment acquired RelayHealth Corporation (“RelayHealth”) based in Emeryville, California. RelayHealth is a provider of secure online healthcare communication services linking patients, healthcare professionals, payors and pharmacies. This segment also acquired two other entities, one specializing in patient billing solutions designed to simplify and enhance healthcare providers’ financial interactions with their patients, as well as a provider of integrated software for electronic health records, medical billing and appointment scheduling for independent physician practices. The total cost of these three entities was $90 million, which was paid in cash. Goodwill recognized in these transactions amounted to $63 million.

(UNAUDITED)
    Our Distribution Solutions segment acquired Sterling Medical Services LLC (“Sterling”) based in Moorestown, New Jersey. Sterling is a national provider and distributor of disposable medical supplies, health management services and quality management programs to the home care market. This segment also acquired a medical supply sourcing agent. The total cost of these two entities was $95 million, which was paid in cash. Goodwill recognized in these transactions amounted to $47 million.
 
    We contributed $36 million in cash and $45 million in net assets, primarily from our Automated Prescription Systems business, to Parata Systems, LLC (“Parata”), in exchange for a minority interest in Parata. Parata is a manufacturer of pharmacy robotic equipment. In connection with the investment, we abandoned certain assets which resulted in a $15 million charge to cost of sales and incurred $6 million of other expenses related to the transaction which were recorded within operating expenses. We did not recognize any additional gains or losses as a result of this transaction as we believe the fair value of our investment in Parata approximates the carrying value of consideration contributed to Parata. Our investment in Parata is accounted for under the equity method of accounting within our Distribution Solutions segment.
     During the last two years, we also completed a number of other smaller acquisitions and investments within both of our operating segments. Financial results for our business acquisitions have been included in our consolidated financial statements since their respective acquisition dates. Purchase prices for our business acquisitions have been allocated based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition and, for certain recent acquisitions, may be subject to change. Goodwill recognized for our business acquisitions is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Pro forma results of operations for our business acquisitions have not been presented because the effects were not material to the consolidated financial statements on either an individual or an aggregate basis.
3. Discontinued Operations
     In the second quarter of 2007, we completed the following divestitures:
    Our Distribution Solutions segment sold its Acute Care medical-surgical supply business to Owens & Minor, Inc. for net cash proceeds of approximately $160 million. The divestiture resulted in an after-tax loss of $61 million, which included a $79 million non-tax deductible write-off of goodwill. We allocated a portion of our goodwill to the Acute Care business as required by SFAS No. 142, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets.” The allocation was based on the relative fair values of the Acute Care business and the continuing businesses that are being retained by the Company. The fair value of the Acute Care business was determined based on the net cash proceeds resulting from the divestiture. As a result, we allocated $79 million of the segment’s goodwill to the Acute Care business.
 
    Our Distribution Solutions segment also sold a wholly-owned subsidiary, Pharmaceutical Buyers Inc., for net cash proceeds of $10 million. The divestiture generated an after-tax gain of $5 million resulting from the tax basis of the subsidiary exceeding its carrying value. The financial results for this business were not material to our condensed consolidated financial statements.
     In accordance with SFAS No. 144, “Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets,” the financial results of these businesses are classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.

4. Share-Based Payment
     We provide share-based compensation for our employees, officers and non-employee directors, including stock options, an employee stock purchase plan, restricted stock (“RS”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance-based restricted stock units (“PeRSUs”) (collectively, “share-based awards”). PeRSUs are RSUs for which the number of RSUs awarded is conditional upon the attainment of one or more performance objectives over a specified performance period, typically one year. At the end of the performance period, if the goals are attained, the award is classified as a RSU and is accounted for on that basis.
     Share-based compensation expense is measured based on the grant-date fair value of the share-based awards. For those awards with graded vesting and service conditions, we recognize compensation expense for the portion of the awards that is ultimately expected to vest on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. For PeRSUs that have been converted to RSUs, we recognize the expense on a straight-line basis primarily over three years and treat each vesting tranche as a separate award. We develop an estimate of the number of share-based awards which will ultimately vest primarily based on historical experience. The estimated forfeiture rate is adjusted throughout the requisite service period. As required, forfeiture estimates are adjusted to reflect actual forfeiture and vesting activity as they occur.
     Compensation expense recognized for share-based compensation has been classified in the income statement or capitalized on the balance sheet in the same manner as cash compensation paid to our employees. There was no material share-based compensation expense capitalized in the balance sheet as of September 30, 2007.
     Most of the Company’s share-based awards are granted in the first quarter of each fiscal year. The components of share-based compensation expense and the related tax benefit are shown in the following table:

FINANCIAL NOTES (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
     Due to the accelerated vesting of share-based awards prior to 2007, we anticipate the impact of SFAS No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” to increase in significance as future awards of share-based compensation are granted and amortized over the requisite service period. Share-based compensation charges are affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables and the related tax impact. These variables include, but are not limited to, the volatility of our stock price, employee stock option exercise behavior, timing, level and types of our grants of annual share-based awards, the attainment of performance goals and actual forfeiture rates. As a result, the actual future share-based compensation expense may differ from historical levels of expense.
5. Income Taxes
     During the second quarter of 2007, we recorded a credit to income tax expense of $83 million which primarily pertains to our receipt of a private letter ruling from the IRS holding that our payment of approximately $960 million to settle the Consolidated Action (see Financial Note 12, “Other Commitments and Contingent Liabilities”) is fully tax-deductible. We previously established tax reserves to reflect the lack of certainty regarding the tax deductibility of settlement amounts paid in the Consolidated Action and related litigation.

7. Earnings Per Share
     Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the reporting period. Diluted earnings per share is computed similarly except that it reflects the potential dilution that could occur if dilutive securities or other obligations to issue common stock were exercised or converted into common stock.

For the six months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006, the number of stock options excluded was approximately 11 million and 12 million.

The weighted average remaining amortization periods for customer lists, technology and trademarks and other intangible assets at September 30, 2007 were: 9 years, 3 years and 6 years. Estimated future annual amortization expense of these assets is as follows: $49 million, $92 million, $80 million, $72 million and $65 million for 2008 through 2012, and $215 million thereafter. At September 30, 2007, there was $5 million of other intangibles not subject to amortization.
9. Financing Activities
     In June 2007, we renewed our $700 million committed accounts receivable sales facility. The facility was renewed under substantially similar terms to those previously in place. The renewed facility expires in June 2008.
     In June 2007, we renewed our existing $1.3 billion five-year, senior unsecured revolving credit facility, which was scheduled to expire in September 2009. The new credit facility has terms and conditions substantially similar to those previously in place and expires in June 2012. Borrowings under this new credit facility bear interest based upon either a Prime rate or the London Interbank Offering Rate.
     As of September 30, 2007, there were no amounts outstanding under any of our borrowing facilities.
     In January 2007, we entered into a $1.8 billion interim credit facility. The interim credit facility was a single-draw 364-day unsecured facility with terms substantially similar to those contained in the Company’s existing revolving credit facility. We utilized $1.0 billion of this facility to fund a portion of our purchase of Per-Se. On March 5, 2007, we issued $500 million of 5.25% notes due 2013 and $500 million of 5.70% notes due 2017. The notes are unsecured and interest is paid semi-annually on March 1 and September 1. The notes are redeemable at any time, in whole or in part, at our option. In addition, upon occurrence of both a change of control and a ratings downgrade of the notes to non-investment-grade levels, we are required to make an offer to redeem the notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued interest. We utilized net proceeds after offering expenses of $990 million from the issuance of the notes, together with cash on hand, to repay all amounts outstanding under the interim credit facility plus accrued interest.

10. Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
     Net expense for the Company’s defined benefit pension and postretirement plans was $5 million and $16 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008 compared to $12 million and $23 million for the comparable prior year periods. Cash contributions to these plans for 2008 and 2007 were $19 million and $20 million.
11. Financial Guarantees and Warranties
     Financial Guarantees
     We have agreements with certain of our customers’ financial institutions under which we have guaranteed the repurchase of inventory (primarily for our Canadian businesses), at a discount, in the event these customers are unable to meet certain obligations to those financial institutions. Among other limitations, these inventories must be in resalable condition. We have also guaranteed loans and the payment of leases for some customers; and we are a secured lender for substantially all of these guarantees. Customer guarantees range from one to ten years and are primarily provided to facilitate financing for certain strategic customers. At September 30, 2007, the maximum amounts of inventory repurchase guarantees and other customer guarantees were approximately $125 million and $7 million, of which a nominal amount has been accrued.
     In addition, our banks and insurance companies have issued $92 million of standby letters of credit and surety bonds on our behalf in order to meet the security requirements for statutory licenses and permits, court and fiduciary obligations, and our workers’ compensation and automotive liability programs.
     Our software license agreements generally include certain provisions for indemnifying customers against liabilities if our software products infringe a third party’s intellectual property rights. To date, we have not incurred any material costs as a result of such indemnification agreements and have not accrued any liabilities related to such obligations.
     In conjunction with certain transactions, primarily divestitures, we may provide routine indemnification agreements (such as retention of previously existing environmental, tax and employee liabilities) whose terms vary in duration and often are not explicitly defined. Where appropriate, obligations for such indemnifications are recorded as liabilities. Because the amounts of these indemnification obligations often are not explicitly stated, the overall maximum amount of these commitments cannot be reasonably estimated. Other than obligations recorded as liabilities at the time of divestiture, we have historically not made significant payments as a result of these indemnification provisions.
     Warranties
     In the normal course of business, we provide certain warranties and indemnification protection for our products and services. For example, we provide warranties that the pharmaceutical and medical-surgical products we distribute are in compliance with the Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act and other applicable laws and regulations. We have received the same warranties from our suppliers, who customarily are the manufacturers of the products. In addition, we have indemnity obligations to our customers for these products, which have also been provided to us from our suppliers, either through express agreement or by operation of law.

McKESSON CORPORATION

(UNAUDITED)
     We also provide warranties regarding the performance of software and automation products we sell. Our liability under these warranties is to bring the product into compliance with previously agreed upon specifications. For software products, this may result in additional project costs which are reflected in our estimates used for the percentage-of-completion method of accounting for software installation services within these contracts. In addition, most of our customers who purchase our software and automation products also purchase annual maintenance agreements. Revenue from these maintenance agreements is recognized on a straight-line basis over the contract period and the cost of servicing product warranties is charged to expense when claims become estimable. Accrued warranty costs were not material to the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
12. Other Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
     In our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007 and in our Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2007, we reported on numerous legal proceedings, including those arising out of our 1999 announcement of accounting improprieties at HBO & Company (“HBOC”), now known as McKesson Information Solutions LLC (the “Securities Litigation”). Significant developments in the Securities Litigation and in other litigation and claims since the referenced filings are as follows:
     I. Securities Litigation
     In the previously reported federal class action, In re McKesson HBOC, Inc. Securities Litigation, (No. C-99-20743 RMW) (“Consolidated Action”), the last remaining defendant, Bear Stearns & Co., Inc. (“Bear Stearns”), Lead Plaintiff for the class and the Company have entered into a stipulation of settlement (“Bear Stearns Settlement”) which was given preliminary approval by Judge Whyte by order entered on September 28, 2007. The court has scheduled a hearing on final approval of the Bear Stearns Settlement for January 4, 2008. If final approval is granted, and if that approval is not upset on appeal, the Bear Stearns Settlement will dispose of the last of the claims by the class in the federal class action and will also fully and finally settle all disputes and claims brought by Bear Stearns against the Company, including the previously reported action, Bear Stearns & Co., Inc. v. McKesson Corporation (No. 604304/5), pending in the trial court for the State and County of New York. Also pursuant to the terms of the Bear Stearns Settlement, on October 9, 2007, the previously reported appeal taken by Bear Stearns from Judge Whyte’s February 24, 2006 order granting final approval of the Company’s own settlement in the Consolidated Action (“McKesson Settlement”) was dismissed “with prejudice,” thus triggering the effective date of the McKesson Settlement and eliminating the last condition to its finality. The dismissal of the Bear Stearns appeal, and thus the effective date and finality of the McKesson Settlement, is not conditioned on final approval of the Bear Stearns Settlement. As a result of this development, during the third quarter of 2008, the Company will remove its $962 million Securities Litigation liability and corresponding restricted cash balances from its consolidated financial statements as all criteria for the extinguishment of this liability have been met.
     The previously reported federal action in which we brought suit against Arthur Andersen LLP (“Andersen”) and its former partner, Robert A. Putnam, on various legal theories in connection with those defendants’ role as auditors for HBOC, McKesson Corporation et al. v. Arthur Andersen et al., (No. 05-04020 RMW), and the related federal action in which Andersen brought suit against us and HBOC, Arthur Andersen v. McKesson Corporation et al., (No. C-06-02035-JW), have been settled.

      II. Other Litigation and Claims
     On August 27, 2007, in the previously reported class action, New England Carpenters Health Benefits Fund et al., v. First DataBank, Inc. and McKesson Corporation, (Civil Action No. 05-11148), pending in the United States District Court of Massachusetts, the court issued its ruling on plaintiffs’ petition for class certification. The court certified a class of third party payors for purposes of liability and equitable relief, but declined to certify such a class for purposes of a damages award. The court did certify a class of percentage co-pay consumers on issues of both liability and damages. The court has set a hearing date of November 13, 2007 to further address the class issues, including whether a damages class can be certified for third party payors. Following the court’s class certification order, plaintiffs filed a motion seeking leave to amend their complaint to add a new class of uninsured consumers who paid “usual and customary” cash prices, and to add a Sherman Act or alternatively a state antitrust claim on behalf of all classes. The court has set a hearing date of January 22, 2008 to consider final approval of the previously publicly reported proposed settlements with both First DataBank, Inc. and Medi-Span, Inc.
     As indicated in our previous periodic reports, the health care industry is highly regulated and government agencies continue to increase their scrutiny over certain practices affecting government programs. From time to time, the Company receives subpoenas or requests for information from various government agencies. The Company generally responds to such subpoenas and requests for information in a cooperative, thorough and timely manner. These responses sometimes require considerable time and effort, and can result in considerable costs to the Company. Such subpoenas and requests also can lead to the assertion of claims or the commencement of legal proceedings against the Company and other members of the health care industry, as well as to settlements, penalties or other outcomes having an adverse impact on our results of operations.

     In April 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a plan to repurchase up to $1.0 billion of the Company’s common stock. In the second quarter and first half of 2008, we repurchased a total of 8 million and 12 million shares for $427 million and $684 million leaving $316 million remaining on the April 2007 plan. In September 2007, an additional $1.0 billion share repurchase program was approved and $1,316 million remains available for future repurchases as of September 30, 2007. Stock repurchases may be made from time-to-time in open market or private transactions.

14. Segment Information
     Beginning with the first quarter of 2008, we report our operations in two operating segments: McKesson Distribution Solutions and McKesson Technology Solutions. This change resulted from a realignment of our businesses to better coordinate our operations with the needs of our customers. The factors for determining the reportable segments included the manner in which management evaluated the performance of the Company combined with the nature of the individual business activities. We evaluate the performance of our operating segments based on operating profit before interest expense, income taxes and results from discontinued operations. In accordance with SFAS No. 131, “Disclosures about Segments of an Enterprise and Related Information,” all prior period amounts are reclassified to conform to the 2008 segment presentation.
     The Distribution Solutions segment distributes ethical and proprietary drugs, medical-surgical supplies and equipment, and health and beauty care products throughout North America. We have combined two of our former segments known as our Pharmaceutical Solutions and Medical-Surgical Solutions segments into this new segment, which reflects the increasing synergies the Company seeks through combined activities and best-practice process improvements. This segment also provides specialty pharmaceutical solutions for biotech and pharmaceutical manufacturers, sells pharmacy software, and provides consulting, outsourcing and other services. This segment includes a 49% interest in Nadro, S.A. de C.V., the leading pharmaceutical distributor in Mexico and a 39% interest in Parata, which sells automated pharmaceutical dispensing systems to retail pharmacies.
     The Technology Solutions segment (formerly known as our Provider Technologies segment) delivers enterprise-wide patient care, clinical, financial, supply chain, strategic management software solutions, pharmacy automation for hospitals, as well as connectivity, outsourcing and other services, to healthcare organizations throughout North America, the United Kingdom and other European countries. The segment’s customers include hospitals, physicians, homecare providers, retail pharmacies and payors. We have added our Payor group of businesses, which includes our InterQual® and clinical auditing and compliance software businesses, and our disease and medical management programs to this segment. The change to move our Payor group to this segment from our former Pharmaceutical Solutions segment reflects our decision to more closely align this business with the strategy of our Technology Solutions segment, that is to create value by promoting connectivity, economic alignment and transparency of information between payors and providers.
     Revenues for our Technology Solutions segment are classified in one of three categories: services, software and software systems and hardware. Service revenues primarily include fees associated with installing our software and software systems, as well as revenues associated with software maintenance and support, remote processing, disease and medical management, and other outsourcing and professional services. Software and software systems revenues primarily include revenues from licensing our software and software systems, including the segment’s clinical auditing and compliance and InterQual® businesses.
     Our Corporate segment includes expenses associated with Corporate functions and projects, certain employee benefits, and the results of certain joint venture investments. Corporate expenses are allocated to the operating segments to the extent that these items can be directly attributable to the segment.

     Revenues for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 grew 9% to $24.5 billion, net income increased 8% to $247 million and diluted earnings per share increased 11% to $0.83 compared to the same period a year ago. For the first half of 2008, revenue increased 7% to $49.0 billion, net income increased 17% to $482 million and diluted earnings per share increased 19% to $1.60 compared to the same period a year ago.
     Increases in net income and diluted earnings per share reflect higher operating profit in our Distribution Solutions and Technology Solutions segments, including our fourth quarter 2007 acquisition of Per-Se Technologies, Inc. (“Per-Se”), and a decrease in our effective tax rate. Additionally, net income and diluted earnings per share for 2007 were impacted by an $83 million credit to our income tax provision relating to the reversal of income tax reserves for our Securities Litigation. This credit was partially offset by $58 million of after-tax losses associated with our discontinued operations, primarily due to the disposal of our Medical-Surgical Acute Care business. On September 30, 2006, we sold this business for net cash proceeds of $160 million. Second quarter 2007 financial results for the Acute Care business were an after-tax loss of $67 million, which includes a $79 million non-tax deductible write-off of goodwill.

     Revenues increased by 9% and 7% to $24.5 billion and $49.0 billion during the quarter and six months ended September 30, 2007 compared to the same periods a year ago. The increase primarily reflects growth in our Distribution Solutions segment. The Distribution Solutions segment accounted for over 97% of consolidated revenues.
     U.S. pharmaceutical direct distribution and services revenues increased primarily reflecting market growth rates and new business. For the first half of 2008, these revenues were also impacted by the loss of a large customer. U.S. pharmaceutical sales to customers’ warehouses increased primarily due to expanded agreements with customers. For the first half of 2008, these revenues were also impacted by a decrease in volume from a large customer.
     Canadian pharmaceutical distribution revenues increased primarily reflecting market growth rates and favorable foreign exchange rates. Partially offsetting these increases, revenues for the first half of 2008 had one less week of sales. Canadian revenues benefited in the second quarter and first half of 2008 from an 8% and a 5% foreign currency increase compared to the same periods a year ago.
     Medical-Surgical distribution and services revenues increased primarily reflecting market growth rates, an acquisition and greater sales of flu vaccines due to earlier market availability. For the first half of 2008, these revenues were also impacted by one less week of sales.
     Technology Solutions segment revenues increased primarily due to the acquisition of Per-Se, increased services revenues, primarily reflecting the segment’s expanded customer bases, and clinical software implementations. On January 26, 2007, we acquired Per-Se of Alpharetta, Georgia for approximately $1.8 billion. Per-Se is a leading provider of financial and administrative healthcare solutions for hospitals, physicians and retail pharmacies. For the first half of 2008, these revenues also benefited from the recognition of $21 million of disease management deferred revenues. Expenses associated with these revenues were previously recognized as incurred.

     Gross profit for the second quarter and first half of 2008 increased 15% and 17% to $1,181 million and $2,358 million. As a percentage of revenues, gross profit margin increased 26 basis points to 4.83% for the second quarter of 2008 and 39 basis points to 4.81% for the first half of 2008. Gross profit margin increased primarily reflecting a greater proportion of higher margin Technology Solutions products and favorable margin expansion in our Distribution Solutions segment.
     For the second quarter of 2008, gross profit margin for our Distribution Solutions segment increased primarily due to higher buy side margin, the benefit of increased sales of generic drugs with higher margins, and a benefit associated with a lower proportion of revenues within the segment attributed to sales to customers’ warehouses, which have lower gross profit margins relative to other revenues within the segment. These positive gross profit margin benefits were partially reduced by a decrease in sell margin, a decrease in last-in, first-out (“LIFO”) inventory credits and a decrease in anti-trust settlements. There were no LIFO inventory credits or antitrust settlements during the second quarter of 2008. For the second quarter of 2007, we recorded $10 million of LIFO inventory credits and $10 million for an antitrust settlement. LIFO inventory credits reflected a number of generic product launches partially offset by a higher level of branded pharmaceutical price increases. Antitrust settlements represent cash proceeds from various antitrust class action lawsuits.
     For the first half of 2008, gross profit margin for our Distribution Solutions segment increased primarily due to higher buy side margin, the benefit of increased sales of generic drugs with higher margins, a benefit associated with a lower proportion of revenues within the segment attributed to sales to customers’ warehouses, which have lower gross profit margins relative to other revenues within the segment, a decrease in asset impairment charges and an increase in antitrust settlements. During the first quarter of 2007, we recorded a $15 million charge pertaining to the write-down of certain abandoned assets within our retail automation group. For the first half of 2008 and 2007, antitrust settlements were $14 million and $10 million. These positive gross profit margin benefits were partially reduced by a decrease in sell margin and a decrease in LIFO inventory credits. There were no LIFO inventory credits during the first half of 2008 compared with $20 million for the first half of 2007.

     Technology Solutions segment’s gross profit margin decreased during the quarter ended September 30, 2007 and increased for the first half of 2008 compared to the same periods a year ago. In 2008, gross profit margin declined primarily due to a change in product mix, including a higher proportion of Per-Se service revenues. Partially offsetting this decrease, the segment’s gross profit margin in the first half of 2008 was positively impacted by the recognition of $21 million of disease management deferred revenues for which expenses associated with these revenues were previously recognized as incurred.

     Operating expenses for the second quarter and first half of 2008 increased 14% to $822 million and $1,643 million. As a percentage of revenues, operating expenses for the second quarter and first half of 2008 increased 15 and 19 basis points to 3.36% and 3.35%. Operating expense dollars increased primarily due to our business acquisitions, including Per-Se, additional costs incurred to support our sales volume growth and, to a lesser extent, due to employee compensation costs associated with the requirement to expense share-based compensation. Pre-tax share-based compensation for the second quarter and first half of 2008 was $28 million and $47 million and $16 million and $24 million for the comparable prior year periods. Other income, net increased slightly in 2008 compared with 2007.
     Due to the accelerated vesting of share-based awards prior to 2007, we anticipate the impact of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (“SFAS”) No. 123(R), “Share-Based Payment,” to increase in significance as future awards of share-based compensation are granted and amortized over the requisite service period. Share-based compensation charges are affected by our stock price as well as assumptions regarding a number of complex and subjective variables and the related tax impact. These variables include, but are not limited to, the volatility of our stock price, employee stock option exercise behavior, timing, level and types of our grants of annual share-based awards, the attainment of performance goals and actual forfeiture rates. As a result, the actual future share-based compensation expense may differ from historical levels of expense. Refer to Financial Note 4, “Share-Based Payment,” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further information on our share-based compensation.

     Operating profit as a percentage of revenues in our Distribution Solutions segment increased reflecting higher gross profit margin, partially offset by slightly higher operating expenses as a percentage of revenues. Operating expenses increased primarily due to additional costs incurred to support our sales volume growth and business acquisitions.
     Operating profit as a percentage of revenues in our Technology Solutions segment decreased during the second quarter of 2008 and increased during the first half of 2008. Excluding the $21 million of deferred revenue recognized in 2008 for which expenses had been recognized in prior years, operating profit margin declined in both periods reflecting a decrease in the segment’s gross profit margin partially offset by favorable operating expenses as a percentage of revenues. Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues decreased primarily reflecting the acquisition of Per-Se. Operating expenses increased primarily due to business acquisitions, including Per-Se, investments in research and development activities and additional share-based compensation. Share-based compensation expense for this segment was $11 million and $18 million for the second quarter and first half of 2008 and $5 million and $8 million for the comparable prior year periods. In addition, operating expenses for the first half of 2007 include $7 million of restructuring charges incurred to reallocate product development and marketing resources and to realign one of the segment’s international businesses.
     Corporate expenses, net of other income, decreased slightly primarily reflecting a decrease in legal expenses associated with our Securities Litigation. This decrease was partially offset by additional costs incurred to support our revenue growth and an increase in share-based compensation expense.

     Securities Litigation: In 2008 and 2007, we recorded net credits of $5 million and $6 million relating to various settlements for our Securities Litigation. Recent developments pertaining to our Securities Litigation are described in Financial Note 12, “Other Commitments and Contingent Liabilities,” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
     Interest Expense: Interest expense for the second quarter and first half of 2008 increased compared to the same periods a year ago primarily due to $1.0 billion of long-term debt issued in the fourth quarter of 2007 to fund our acquisition of Per-Se.
     Income Taxes: The Company’s reported income tax rates for the second quarters of 2008 and 2007 were 31.2% and 9.2% and for the first half of 2008 and 2007, were 32.5% and 21.5%. In addition to the items noted below, fluctuations in our reported tax rate are primarily due to changes within state and foreign tax rates resulting from our business mix, including varying proportions of income attributable to foreign countries that have lower income tax rates.
     During the second quarter of 2008, we decreased our estimated annual effective tax rate from a range of 34% — 35% to 33.0% primarily due to an estimated higher proportion of income attributed to foreign countries. This decrease required a $3 million cumulative catch-up benefit to income taxes associated with the first quarter of 2008.
     During the second quarter of 2007, we recorded a credit to income tax expense of $83 million, which primarily pertains to our receipt of a private letter ruling from the U.S. Internal Revenue Service holding that our payment of approximately $960 million to settle the Consolidated Action is fully tax-deductible. We previously established tax reserves to reflect the lack of certainty regarding the tax deductibility of settlement amounts paid in the Consolidated Action and related litigation.
     Discontinued Operations: In the second quarter of 2007, we completed the divestiture of our Distribution Solutions segment’s Medical-Surgical Acute Care supply business for net cash proceeds of approximately $160 million. The divestiture generated an after-tax loss of $61 million, which included a $79 million non-tax deductible write-off of goodwill. The segment also sold a wholly-owned subsidiary, Pharmaceutical Buyers Inc., for net cash proceeds of $10 million. The divestiture resulted in an after-tax gain of $5 million resulting from the tax basis of the subsidiary exceeding its carrying value. Financial results of these businesses are classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements.
     Net Income: Net income was $247 million and $229 million for the second quarter of 2008 and 2007, or $0.83 and $0.75 per diluted share. Net income was $482 million and $413 million for the first half of 2008 and 2007, or $1.60 and $1.35 per diluted share. Net income for 2008 and 2007 includes a net after-tax benefit of $3 million and $87 million for our Securities Litigation. Net income for the second quarter and first half of 2007 also includes $58 million of after-tax losses for our discontinued operations primarily pertaining to the disposition of our Medical-Surgical Acute Care business.

     Weighted Average Diluted Shares Outstanding: Diluted earnings per share were calculated based on an average number of diluted shares outstanding of 299 million and 305 million for the second quarters of 2008 and 2007 and 302 million and 307 million for the six months ended September 30, 2007 and 2006. The decrease in the number of weighted average diluted shares outstanding primarily reflects stock repurchased, partially offset by exercised stock options.
Business Acquisitions
     On October 29, 2007, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Oncology Therapeutics Network (“OTN”) of San Francisco, California for approximately $575 million, including the assumption of debt. OTN is a U.S. distributor of specialty pharmaceuticals. The acquisition was funded with cash on hand. The results of OTN will be included in the consolidated financial statements within our Distribution Solutions segment.
In 2007, we made the following acquisitions and investment:
  On January 26, 2007, we acquired all of the outstanding shares of Per-Se of Alpharetta, Georgia for $28.00 per share in cash plus the assumption of Per-Se’s debt, or approximately $1.8 billion in aggregate, including cash acquired of $76 million. Per-Se is a leading provider of financial and administrative healthcare solutions for hospitals, physicians and retail pharmacies. Financial results for Per-Se are primarily included within our Technology Solutions segment since the date of acquisition. The acquisition was initially funded with cash on hand and through the use of an interim credit facility. In March 2007, we issued $1 billion of long-term debt, with such net proceeds after offering expenses from the issuance, together with cash on hand, being used to fully repay borrowings outstanding under the interim credit facility.
Approximately $1,252 million of the preliminary purchase price allocation has been assigned to goodwill. Included in the purchase price allocation are acquired identifiable intangibles of $402 million representing customer relationships with a weighted-average life of 10 years, developed technology of $56 million with a weighted-average life of 5 years, and trademarks and tradenames of $13 million with a weighted-average life of 5 years.
  Our Technology Solutions segment acquired RelayHealth Corporation (“RelayHealth”) based in Emeryville, California. RelayHealth is a provider of secure online healthcare communication services linking patients, healthcare professionals, payors and pharmacies. This segment also acquired two other entities, one specializing in patient billing solutions designed to simplify and enhance healthcare providers’ financial interactions with their patients, and the other a provider of integrated software for electronic health records, medical billing and appointment scheduling for independent physician practices. The total cost of these three entities was $90 million, which was paid in cash. Goodwill recognized in these transactions amounted to $63 million.
 
  Our Distribution Solutions segment acquired Sterling Medical Services LLC (“Sterling”) based in Moorestown, New Jersey. Sterling is a national provider and distributor of disposable medical supplies, health management services and quality management programs to the home care market. This segment also acquired a medical supply sourcing agent. The total cost of these two entities was $95 million, which was paid in cash. Goodwill recognized in these transactions amounted to $47 million.
 
  We contributed $36 million in cash and $45 million in net assets primarily from our Automated Prescription Systems business to Parata Systems, LLC (“Parata,”) in exchange for a minority interest in Parata. Our investment in Parata is accounted for under the equity method of accounting within our Distribution Solutions segment.

FINANCIAL REVIEW (CONTINUED)
(UNAUDITED)
     During the last two years, we also completed a number of other smaller acquisitions and investments within both of our operating segments. Financial results for our business acquisitions have been included in our consolidated financial statements since their respective acquisition dates. Purchase prices for our business acquisitions have been allocated based on estimated fair values at the date of acquisition and, for certain recent acquisitions, may be subject to change. Goodwill recognized for our business acquisitions is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes. Pro forma results of operations for our business acquisitions have not been presented because the effects were not material to the consolidated financial statements on either an individual or an aggregate basis. Refer to Financial Note 2, “Acquisitions and Investments,” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements for further discussions regarding our acquisitions and investing activities.
New Accounting Developments
     See Financial Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies,” to the condensed consolidated financial statements for information on recently issued accounting standards.
Contractual Obligations
     There have been no significant changes to our contractual obligations and commitments table as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2007, expect for those incurred during the normal course of business and a change related to our adoption of Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation (“FIN”) No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes.” As disclosed in Financial Note 1, “Significant Accounting Policies,” to the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements, we had $465 million and $488 million of unrecognized tax benefits at April 1, 2007 and September 30, 2007. These liabilities would increase our contractual obligations as reported in our 2007 Annual Report on Form 10-K. We can not reasonably estimate the timing of cash settlement with respective taxing authorities for these liabilities.
Financial Condition, Liquidity, and Capital Resources
     Operating activities provided cash of $1,272 million and $685 million during the first half of 2008 and 2007. Operating activities for 2008 reflect improved inventory management and an increase in accounts payable associated with longer payment terms, partially offset by an increase in receivables associated with longer payment terms. Operating activities for 2007 benefited from improved accounts receivable management, reflecting changes in our customer mix, our termination of a customer contract and an increase in accounts payable associated with longer payment terms. These benefits were partially offset by increases in inventory needed to support our growth. Cash flows from operations can be significantly impacted by factors such as the timing of receipts from customers and payments to vendors.
     Investing activities utilized cash of $228 million and $109 million during the first half of 2008 and 2007. Investing activities for 2008 and 2007 include $83 million and $51 million of property acquisitions. The increase primarily reflects investments in our distribution center network and information systems. Investing activities include $51 million and $95 million in 2008 and 2007 of cash paid for business acquisitions. Investing activities for 2007 also reflect $36 million of cash paid for our investment in Parata and $175 million of cash proceeds from the sale of businesses, including $164 million for the sale of our Acute Care business.
     Financing activities utilized cash of $498 million and $467 million in the first half of 2008 and 2007. Financing activities for 2008 include a $37 million increase in the use of cash for stock repurchases.
     In April 2007, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a plan to repurchase up to $1.0 billion of the Company’s common stock. In the second quarter and first half of 2008, we repurchased a total of 8 million and 12 million shares for $427 million and $684 million, leaving $316 million remaining on the April 2007 plan. In September 2007, an additional $1.0 billion share repurchase program was approved and $1,316 million remains available for future repurchases as of September 30, 2007. Stock repurchases may be made from time-to-time in open market or private transactions.

(3)   Ratio is computed as net income for the last four quarters, divided by a five-quarter average of stockholders’ equity.
     Working capital primarily includes cash, receivables, inventories, drafts and accounts payable, deferred revenue and other current liabilities. Our Distribution Solutions segment requires a substantial investment in working capital that is susceptible to large variations during the year as a result of inventory purchase patterns and seasonal demands. Inventory purchase activity is a function of sales activity and new customer build-up requirements. Consolidated working capital increased primarily reflecting $420 million of short-term tax liabilities which were reclassified to long-term liabilities as result of our implementation of FIN No. 48, “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes,” as well as an increase in cash balances.
     Our ratio of net debt to net capital employed decreased in 2008 primarily due to our favorable cash and cash equivalent balances.
Credit Resources
     We fund our working capital requirements primarily with cash, short-term borrowings and our receivables sales facility. In June 2007, we renewed our existing $1.3 billion five-year, senior unsecured revolving credit facility, which was scheduled to expire in September 2009. The new credit facility has terms and conditions substantially similar to those previously in place and expires in June 2012. Borrowings under this new credit facility bear interest based upon either a Prime rate or the London Interbank Offering Rate. As of September 30, 2007, no amounts were outstanding under this facility.
     In June 2007, we renewed our $700 million committed accounts receivable sales facility. The facility was renewed under substantially similar terms to those previously in place. The renewed facility expires in June 2008. As of September 30, 2007, no amounts were outstanding under this facility.
     In January 2007, we entered into a $1.8 billion interim credit facility. The interim credit facility was a single-draw 364-day unsecured facility which had terms substantially similar to those contained in the Company’s existing revolving credit facility. We utilized $1.0 billion of this facility to fund a portion of our purchase of Per-Se. On March 5, 2007, we issued $500 million of 5.25% notes due 2013 and $500 million of 5.70% notes due 2017. The notes are unsecured and interest is paid semi-annually on March 1 and September 1. The notes are redeemable at any time, in whole or in part, at our option. In addition, upon occurrence of both a change of control and a ratings downgrade of the notes to non-investment-grade levels, we are required to make an offer to redeem the notes at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount plus accrued interest. We utilized net proceeds after offering expenses of $990 million from the issuance of the notes, together with cash on hand, to repay all amounts outstanding under the interim credit facility plus accrued interest.
     Our various borrowing facilities and long-term debt are subject to certain covenants. Our principal debt covenant is our debt to capital ratio, which cannot exceed 56.5%. If we exceed this ratio, repayment of debt outstanding under the revolving credit facility and $215 million of term debt could be accelerated. As of September 30, 2007, this ratio was 23.4% and we were in compliance with our other financial covenants. A reduction in our credit ratings or the lack of compliance with our covenants could negatively impact our ability to finance operations through our credit facilities, or issue additional debt at the interest rates then currently available.

Under the Name SP Ventures, Inc.
ARTICLE I.
The name of the Corporation is McKesson Corporation.

The address of the registered office of the Corporation within the State of Delaware is 2711 Centerville Road, Suite 400, Wilmington 19808, County of New Castle. The name of the registered agent of the Corporation at such address is The Prentice-Hall Corporation System, Inc.
ARTICLE III.
The purpose of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or activity for which corporations may be organized under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

The total number of shares of stock of all classes which the Corporation has authority to issue is 900,000,000 shares, divided into 100,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share (herein called the ‘Series Preferred Stock’) and 800,000,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (herein called ‘Common Stock’). The aggregate par value of all shares is $9,000,000.
The Board of Directors of the Corporation is expressly authorized, as shall be stated and expressed in the resolution or resolutions it adopts, subject to limitations prescribed by law and the provisions of this Article IV, to provide for the issuance of the shares of Series Preferred Stock in one or more class or series, in addition to the shares thereof specifically provided for in

1


 

this Article IV, and by filing a certificate pursuant to the applicable law of the State of Delaware, to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each such series, and to fix for each such class or series such voting powers, full or limited, or no voting powers, and such distinctive designations, powers, preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights and such qualifications, limitations or restrictions thereof, including without limitation, the authority to provide that any such class or series may be (i) subject to redemption at such time or times and at such price or prices; (ii) entitled to receive dividends (which may be cumulative or non-cumulative) at such rates, on such conditions, and at such times, and payable in preference to, or in relation to, the dividends payable on any other class or classes or any other series; (iii) entitled to such rights upon the dissolution of, or upon any distribution of the assets of, the Corporation; (iv) convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or classes of stock, or of any other series of the same or any other class or classes of stock, of the Corporation at such price or prices or at such rates of exchange and with such adjustments; or (v) subject to the terms and amounts of any sinking fund provided for the purchase or redemption of the shares of such series; all as may be stated in such resolution or resolutions.
The number of authorized shares of Series Preferred Stock may be increased or decreased (but not below the number of shares thereof then outstanding) by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Common Stock, without a vote of the holders of the Series Preferred Stock, as the case may be, or of any series thereof, unless a vote of any such holders is required pursuant to the provisions of this Article IV or the certificate or certificates establishing any additional series of such stock.
A description of each class of the Corporation’s stock, with the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, is as follows:
I. SERIES PREFERRED STOCK
A. General Provisions Relating to All Series
1. The Board of Directors shall have authority to classify and reclassify any unissued shares of the Series Preferred Stock from time to time by setting or changing in any one or more respects the powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Series Preferred Stock. Subject to the foregoing, the power of the Board of Directors to classify and reclassify any of the shares of Series Preferred Stock shall include, without limitation, subject to the provisions of this Certificate of Incorporation, authority to classify or reclassify any unissued shares of such stock into one or more series of Series Preferred Stock, and to divide and classify shares of any series into one or more series of Series Preferred Stock by determining, fixing or altering one or more of the following:
(a) The distinctive designation of such series and the number of shares to constitute such series; provided that, unless otherwise prohibited by the terms of such or any other series, the number of shares of any series may be decreased by the Board of Directors in connection with any classification or reclassification of unissued shares and the number of shares of such series may be increased by the Board of Directors in connection with any such classification or reclassification, and any shares of any series which have been redeemed, purchased, otherwise acquired or converted into shares of Common Stock or any other series shall remain part of the authorized Series Preferred Stock and be subject to classification and reclassification as provided in this Section.

(b) Whether or not and, if so, the rates, amounts and times at which, and the conditions under which, dividends shall be payable on shares of such series, whether any such dividends shall rank senior or junior to or on a parity with the dividends payable on any other series of Series Preferred Stock, and the status of any such dividends as cumulative, cumulative to a limited extent or non-cumulative and as participating or non-participating.
(c) Whether or not shares of such series shall have voting rights, in addition to any voting rights provided by law and, if so, the terms of such voting rights.
(d) Whether or not shares of such series shall have conversion or exchange privileges and, if so, the terms and conditions thereof, including provision for adjustment of the conversion or exchange rate in such events or at such times as the Board of Directors shall determine.
(e) Whether or not shares of such series shall be subject to redemption and, if so, the terms and conditions of such redemption, including the date or dates upon or after which they shall be redeemable and the amount per share payable in case of redemption, which amount may vary under different conditions and at different redemption dates; and whether or not there shall be any sinking fund or purchase account in respect thereof, and if so, the terms thereof.
(f) The rights of the holders of shares of such series upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the affairs of, or upon any distribution of the assets of, the Corporation, which rights may vary depending upon whether such liquidation, dissolution or winding up is voluntary or involuntary and, if voluntary, may vary at different dates, and whether such rights shall rank senior or junior to or on a parity with such rights of any other series of Series Preferred Stock.
(g) Whether or not there shall be any limitations applicable, while shares of such series are outstanding, upon the payment of dividends or making of distributions on, or the acquisition of, or the use of moneys for purchase or redemption of, any stock of the Corporation, or upon any other action of the Corporation, including action under this Section, and, if so, the terms and conditions thereof.
(h) Any other powers, designations, preferences and relative, participating, optional and other rights, if any, and any other qualifications, limitations and restrictions, on the shares of such series, not inconsistent with law and this Certificate of Incorporation.
2. For the purposes hereof and of any certificate providing for the classification or reclassification of any shares of Series Preferred Stock or of any other charter document of the Corporation (unless otherwise provided in any such certificate or document), any class or series of stock of the Corporation shall be deemed to rank:
(a) Prior to a particular class or series of stock if the holders of such class or classes or series shall be entitled to the receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, in preference to or with priority over the holders of such particular class or series of stock;
(b) On a parity with a particular class or series of stock, whether or not the dividend rates, dividend payment dates, voting rights or redemption or liquidation prices per share thereof, be different from those of such particular class or series of stock, if the rights of holders of such class or classes or series to the receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable in event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be, shall be neither (i) in preference to, or with priority over, nor (ii) subject or subordinate to, the rights of holders of such particular class or series of stock in respect of the receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, as the case may be; and

(c) Junior to a particular class or series of stock if the rights of the holders of such class or classes or series shall be subject or subordinate to the rights of the holders of such particular class or series of stock in respect of the receipt of dividends or of amounts distributable in the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding up, as the case may be.

The shares of this series shall be designated as “Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock” and the number of shares constituting such series shall initially be 10,000,000, par value $0.01 per share, such number of shares to be subject to increase or decrease by action of the Board of Directors as evidenced by a certificate or certificates evidencing such change.
2. Dividends and Distributions.
(a) The holders of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive, when, as and if declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the purpose, quarterly dividends payable in cash on the first business day of January, April, July and October in each year (each such date being referred to herein as a “Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date”), commencing on the first Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date after the first issuance of a share or fraction of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, in an amount per share (rounded to the nearest cent) equal to the greater of (i) $10.00 or (ii) subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, 100 times the aggregate per share amount of all cash dividends, and 100 times the aggregate per share amount (payable in kind) of all non-cash dividends or other distributions other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock or a subdivision of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (by reclassification or otherwise), declared on the Common Stock since the immediately preceding Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, or, with respect to the first Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, since the first issuance of any share or fraction of a share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock. In the event the Corporation shall at any time after November 1, 1994 (the “Rights Declaration Date’) (A) declare any dividend on Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (B) subdivide the outstanding Common Stock, or (C) combine the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the amount to which holders of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event under clause (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
(b) The Corporation shall declare a dividend or distribution on the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock as provided in paragraph (a) above immediately after it declares a dividend or distribution on the Common Stock (other than a dividend payable in shares of Common Stock); provided that, in the event no dividend or distribution shall have been declared on the Common Stock during the period between any Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date and the next subsequent Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, a dividend of $10.00 per share on the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall nevertheless be payable on such subsequent Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date.
(c) Dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative on outstanding shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock from the Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date next preceding the date of issue of such shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, unless the date of issue of such shares is prior to the record date for the first Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in which case dividends on such shares shall begin to accrue from the date of issue of such shares, or unless the date of issue is a Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date or is a date after the record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock entitled to receive a quarterly dividend and before such Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date, in either of

4


 

which events such dividends shall begin to accrue and be cumulative from such Series A Quarterly Dividend Payment Date. Accrued but unpaid dividends shall not bear interest. Dividends paid on the shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock in an amount less than the total amount of such dividends at the time accrued and payable on such shares shall be allocated pro rata on a share-by-share basis among all such shares at the time outstanding. The Board of Directors may fix a record date for the determination of holders of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock entitled to receive payment of a dividend or distribution declared thereon, which record date shall be no more than 30 days prior to the date fixed for the payment thereof.
3. Voting Rights. The holders of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall have the following voting rights:
(a) Subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth, each share of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall entitle the holder thereof to 100 votes on all matters submitted to a vote of the stockholders of the Corporation. In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Rights Declaration Date (i) declare any dividend on Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide the outstanding Common Stock, or (iii) combine the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the number of votes per share to which holders of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock were entitled immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such number by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
(b) Except as otherwise provided herein or by law, the holders of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock and the holders of shares of Common Stock shall vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Corporation.
(c) (i) If at any time dividends on any Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall be in arrears in an amount equal to six (6) quarterly dividends thereon, the occurrence of such contingency shall mark the beginning of a period (herein called a “default period’) which shall extend until such time when all accrued and unpaid dividends for all previous quarterly dividend periods and for the current quarterly dividend period on all shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock then outstanding shall have been declared and paid or set apart for payment. During each default period, all holders of Series Preferred Stock, (including holders of the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock) with dividends in arrears in an amount equal to six (6) quarterly dividends thereon, voting as a class, irrespective of series, shall have the right to elect two (2) Directors.
(ii) During any default period, such voting right of the holders of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock may be exercised initially at a special meeting called pursuant to subparagraph (iii) of this Section 3(c) or at any annual meeting of stockholders, and thereafter at annual meetings of stockholders, provided that neither such voting right nor the right of the holders of any other series of Series Preferred Stock, if any, to increase, in certain cases, the authorized number of Directors shall be exercised unless the holders of ten percent (10%) in number of shares of Series Preferred Stock outstanding shall be present in person or by proxy. The absence of a quorum of the holders of Common Stock shall not affect the exercise by the holders of Series Preferred Stock of such voting right. At any meeting at which the holders of Series Preferred Stock shall exercise such voting right initially during an existing default period, they shall have the right, voting as a class, to elect Directors to fill such vacancies, if any, in the Board of Directors as may then exist up to two (2) Directors or, if such right is exercised at an annual meeting, to elect two (2) Directors. If the number which may be so elected at any special meeting does not amount to the required number, the holders of the Series Preferred Stock shall have the right to make such increase in the number of Directors as shall be necessary to permit the election by them of the required number. After the

5


 

holders of the Series Preferred Stock shall have exercised their right to elect Directors in any default period and during the continuance of such period, the number of Directors shall not be increased or decreased except by vote of the holders of Series Preferred Stock as herein provided or pursuant to the rights of any equity securities ranking senior to or pari passu with the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock.
(iii) Unless the holders of Series Preferred Stock shall, during an existing default period, have previously exercised their right to elect Directors, the Board of Directors may order, or any stockholder or stockholders owning in the aggregate not less than ten percent (10%) of the total number of shares of Series Preferred Stock outstanding, irrespective of series, may request, the calling of a special meeting of the holders of Series Preferred Stock, which meeting shall thereupon be called by the President, a Vice-President or the Secretary of the Corporation. Notice of such meeting and of any annual meeting at which holders of Series Preferred Stock are entitled to vote pursuant to this paragraph (c)(iii) shall be given to each holder of record of Series Preferred Stock by mailing a copy of such notice to him at his last address as the same appears on the books of the Corporation. Such meeting shall be called for a time not earlier than 20 days and not later than 60 days after such order or request or in default of the calling of such meeting within 60 days after such order or request, such meeting may be called on similar notice by any stockholder or stockholders owning in the aggregate not less than ten percent (10%) of the total number of shares of Series Preferred Stock outstanding. Notwithstanding the provisions of this paragraph (c)(iii), no such special meeting shall be called during the period within 60 days immediately preceding the date fixed for the next annual meeting of the stockholders.
(iv) In any default period, the holders of Common Stock, and other classes of stock of the Corporation if applicable, shall continue to be entitled to elect the whole number of Directors until the holders of Series Preferred Stock shall have exercised their right to elect two (2) Directors voting as a class, after the exercise of which right (A) the Directors so elected by the holders of Series Preferred Stock shall continue in office until their successors shall have been elected by such holders or until the expiration of the default period, and (B) any vacancy in the Board of Directors may (except as provided in paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 3) be filled by vote of a majority of the remaining Directors theretofore elected by the holders of the class of stock which elected the Director whose office shall have become vacant. References in this paragraph (c) to Directors elected by the holders of a particular class of stock shall include Directors elected by such Directors to fill vacancies as provided in clause (B) of the preceding sentence.
(v) Immediately upon the expiration of a default period, (A) the right of the holders of Series Preferred Stock as a class to elect Directors shall cease, (B) the term of any Directors elected by the holders of Series Preferred Stock as a class shall terminate, and (C) the number of Directors shall be such number as may be provided for in this Certificate of Incorporation or the By-laws of the Corporation irrespective of any increase made pursuant to the provisions of paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 3 (such number being subject, however, to change thereafter in any manner provided by law or in this Certificate of Incorporation or the By-laws of the Corporation). Any vacancies in the Board of Directors effected by the provisions of clauses (B) and (C) in the preceding sentence may be filled by a majority of the remaining Directors.
(d) Except as set forth herein or as otherwise required by applicable law, holders of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall have no special voting rights and their consent shall not be required (except to the extent they are entitled to vote with holders of Common Stock as set forth herein) for taking any corporate action.

4. Certain Restrictions.
(a) Whenever quarterly dividends or other dividends or distributions payable on the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock as provided in Section 2 are in arrears, thereafter and until all accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions, whether or not declared, on shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock outstanding shall have been paid in full, the Corporation shall not
(i) declare or pay dividends on, make any other distributions on, or redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock;
(ii) declare or pay dividends on or make any other distributions on any shares of stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, except dividends paid ratably on the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock and all such parity stock on which dividends are payable or in arrears in proportion to the total amounts to which the holders of all such shares are then entitled;
(iii) redeem or purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration shares of any stock ranking on a parity (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) with the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, provided that the Corporation may at any time redeem, purchase or otherwise acquire shares of any such parity stock in exchange for shares of any stock of the Corporation ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon dissolution, liquidation or winding up) to the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock;
(iv) purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, or any shares of stock ranking on a parity with the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, except in accordance with a purchase offer made in writing or by publication (as determined by the Board of Directors) to all holders of such shares upon such terms as the Board of Directors, after consideration of the respective annual dividend rates and other relative rights and preferences of the respective series and classes, shall determine in good faith will result in fair and equitable treatment among the respective series or classes.
(b) The Corporation shall not permit any subsidiary of the Corporation to purchase or otherwise acquire for consideration any shares of stock of the Corporation unless the Corporation could, under paragraph (a) of this Section 4, purchase or otherwise acquire such shares at such time and in such manner.
5. Reacquired Shares. Any shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock purchased or otherwise acquired by the Corporation in any manner whatsoever shall be retired and cancelled promptly after the acquisition thereof. All such shares shall upon their cancellation become authorized but unissued shares of Series Preferred Stock and may be reissued as part of a new series of Series Preferred Stock to be created by resolution or resolutions of the Board of Directors, subject to the conditions and restrictions on issuance set forth herein.
6. Liquidation, Dissolution or Winding Up.
(a) Upon any liquidation (voluntary or otherwise), dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, no distribution shall be made to the holders of shares of stock ranking junior (either as to dividends or upon liquidation, dissolution or winding up) to the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall have received $100 per share, plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid dividends and distributions thereon, whether or not declared, to the date of such payment (the “Series A Liquidation Preference”). Following the payment of the full

7


 

amount of the Series A Liquidation Preference, no additional distributions shall be made to the holders of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock unless, prior thereto, the holders of shares of Common Stock shall have received an amount per share (the “Common Adjustment”) equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (i) the Series A Liquidation Preference by (ii) 100 (as appropriately adjusted as set forth in subparagraph C below to reflect such events as stock splits, stock dividends and recapitalizations with respect to the Common Stock) (such number in clause (ii), the “Adjustment Number”). Following the payment of the full amount of the Series A Liquidation Preference and the Common Adjustment in respect of all outstanding shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock and Common Stock, respectively, holders of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock and holders of shares of Common Stock shall receive their ratable and proportionate share of the remaining assets to be distributed in the ratio of the Adjustment Number to 1 with respect to such Preferred Stock and Common Stock, on a per share basis, respectively.
(b) In the event, however, that there are not sufficient assets available to permit payment in full of the Series A Liquidation Preference and the liquidation preferences of all other series of preferred stock, if any, which rank on a parity with the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, then such remaining assets shall be distributed ratably to the holders of such parity shares in proportion to their respective liquidation preferences. In the event, however, that there are not sufficient assets available to permit payment in full of the Common Adjustment, then such remaining assets shall be distributed ratably to the holders of Common Stock.
(c) In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Rights Declaration Date (i) declare any dividend on Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (ii) subdivide the outstanding Common Stock, or (iii) combine the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the Adjustment Number in effect immediately prior to such event shall be adjusted by multiplying such Adjustment Number by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
7. Consolidation, Merger, etc. In case the Corporation shall enter into any consolidation, merger, combination or other transaction in which the shares of Common Stock are exchanged for or changed into other stock or securities, cash and/or any other property, then in any such case the shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall at the same time be similarly exchanged or changed in an amount per share (subject to the provision for adjustment hereinafter set forth) equal to 100 times the aggregate amount of stock, securities, cash and/or any other property (payable in kind), as the case may be, into which or for which each share of Common Stock is changed or exchanged. In the event the Corporation shall at any time after the Rights Declaration Date (a) declare any dividend on Common Stock payable in shares of Common Stock, (b) subdivide the outstanding Common Stock, or (c) combine the outstanding Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, then in each such case the amount set forth in the preceding sentence with respect to the exchange or change of shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall be adjusted by multiplying such amount by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event and the denominator of which is the number of shares of Common Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to such event.
8. No Redemption. The shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall not be redeemable.
9. Ranking. The Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock shall rank junior to all other series of the Corporation’s Series Preferred Stock as to the payment of dividends and the distribution of assets, unless the terms of any such series shall provide otherwise.

10. Amendment. This Certificate of Incorporation shall not be further amended in any manner which would materially alter or change the powers, preferences or special rights of the Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock so as to affect them adversely without the affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds or more of the outstanding shares of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock, voting separately as a class.
11. Fractional Shares. Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock may be issued in fractions of a share which shall entitle the holder, in proportion to such holder’s fractional shares, to exercise voting rights, receive dividends, participate in distributions and to have the benefit of all other rights of holders of Series A Junior Participating Preferred Stock.
II. COMMON STOCK
A. Dividends. Subject to all of the rights of the Series Preferred Stock, dividends may be paid upon the Common Stock as and when declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available for the payment of dividends.
B. Liquidation Rights. In the event of any liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the Corporation, whether voluntary or involuntary, and after the holders of the Series Preferred Stock shall have been paid in full amounts to which they respectively shall be entitled, or an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate amount to which such holders shall be entitled shall have been deposited in trust with a bank or trust company having its principal office in the Borough of Manhattan, City, County and State of New York, having a capital, undivided profits and surplus aggregating at least $5,000,000, for the benefit of the holders of the Series Preferred Stock, the remaining net assets of the Corporation shall be distributed pro rata to the holders of the Common Stock.
C. Voting Rights. Except as otherwise expressly provided with respect to the Series Preferred Stock and except as otherwise may be required by law, the Common Stock shall have the exclusive right to vote for the election of directors and for all other purposes and each holder of Common Stock shall be entitled to one vote for each share held.
ARTICLE V.

Directors of the Corporation need not be elected by ballot unless required by the By-Laws.
2. Terms. Each nominee elected by the stockholders at the 2007 annual meeting of the stockholders to serve as director shall hold office for a term commencing the date of the 2007 annual meeting, or such later date as determined by the Board of Directors, and ending on the next annual meeting of stockholders and until such director’s successor is elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier resignation or removal. At each annual meeting of stockholders subsequent to the 2007 annual meeting of stockholders, each nominee elected by the stockholders to serve as director shall hold office for a term commencing on the date of the annual meeting, or such later date as shall be determined by the Board of Directors, and ending on the next annual meeting of stockholders and until such director’s successor is elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier resignation or removal. A director may be removed from office, with or without cause, by the holders of a majority of the shares then entitled to vote at an election of directors and, subject to such removal, death, resignation, retirement or disqualification, shall hold office until such director’s term expires and until such

9


 

director’s successor shall be elected and qualified. In no case shall a decrease in the number of directors shorten the term of any incumbent director.
3. Directors Appointed by a Specific Class of Stockholders. To the extent that any holders of any class or series of stock other than Common Stock issued by the Corporation shall have the separate right, voting as a class or series, to elect directors, the directors elected by such class or series shall be deemed to constitute an additional class of directors and shall have a term of office for one year or such other period as may be designated by the provisions of such class or series providing such separate voting right to the holders of such class or series of stock, and any such class of directors shall be in addition to the classes designated above.
ARTICLE VI.
A. General Provisions. The following provisions are hereby adopted for the purpose of defining, limiting and regulating the powers of the Corporation and of its directors and stockholders:
1. Amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation. Subject to the provisions of applicable law, the Corporation reserves the right from time to time to make any amendment to its Certificate of Incorporation, now or hereafter authorized by law, including any amendment which alters the contract rights as expressly set forth therein, of any outstanding stock.
2. Amendments to the By-Laws. The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, alter and repeal the By-Laws of the Corporation in whole or in part at any regular or special meeting of the Board of Directors, by vote of a majority of the entire Board of Directors. Except where this Certificate of Incorporation otherwise requires a higher vote, the By-Laws may also be adopted, altered or repealed in whole or in part at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders by the affirmative vote of three-fourths of the shares of the Corporation outstanding and entitled to vote thereon.
3. No Preemptive Rights. No holder of any class of stock of the Corporation, whether now or hereafter authorized or outstanding, shall have any preemptive, preferential or other right to subscribe for or purchase any class of the Corporation’s stock, whether now or hereafter authorized or outstanding, which it may at any time issue or sell, or to subscribe for or purchase any notes, debentures, bonds or other securities which it may at any time issue or sell, whether or not the same be convertible into or exchangeable for or carry options or warrants to purchase shares of any class of the Corporation’s stock or other securities, or to receive or purchase any warrants or options which may be issued or granted evidencing the right to purchase any such stock or other securities, it being intended by this Section 3 that all preemptive rights of any kind applicable to securities of the Corporation are eliminated.
4. Vote Required to Take Action; Action by Written Consent. Except as otherwise provided in this Certificate of Incorporation and except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Corporation may take or authorize any action upon the affirmative vote of the majority of shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the subject matter thereof.

6. Interested Transactions. Any director or officer individually, or any partnership of which any director or officer may be a member, or any corporation or association of which any director or officer may be an officer, director, trustee, employee or stockholder, may be a party to, or may be pecuniarily or otherwise interested in, any contract or transaction of the Corporation, and in the absence of fraud no contract or other transaction shall be thereby affected or invalidated. Any director of the Corporation who is so interested, or who is also a director, officer, trustee, employee or stockholder of such other corporation or association or a member of such partnership which is so interested, may be counted in determining the existence of a quorum at any meeting of the Board of Directors of the Corporation which shall authorize any such contract or transaction, and may vote thereat to authorize any such contract or transaction, with like force and effect as if he were not such director, officer, trustee, employee or stockholder of such other corporation or association or not so interested or a member of a partnership so interested; provided that in case a director, or a partnership, corporation or association of which a director is a member, officer, director, trustee or employee is so interested, such fact shall be disclosed or shall have been known to the Board of Directors or a majority thereof. This paragraph shall not be construed to invalidate any such contract or transaction which would otherwise be valid under the common and statutory law applicable thereto.
7. Indemnification. The Corporation shall indemnify (a) its directors to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware now or hereafter in force, including the advancement of expenses under the procedures provided by such laws, (b) all of its officers to the same extent as it shall indemnify its directors, and (c) its officers who are not directors to such further extent as shall be authorized by the Board of Directors and be consistent with law. Subject only to any limitations prescribed by the laws of the State of Delaware now or hereafter in force, the foregoing shall not limit the authority of the Corporation to indemnify the directors, officers and other employees and agents of this Corporation consistent with law and shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any rights to which those indemnified may be entitled as a matter of law or under any resolution, By-Law provision, or agreement.
8. Court-Ordered Meetings of Creditors and/or Stockholders. Whenever a compromise or arrangement is proposed between this Corporation and its creditors or any class of them and/or between this Corporation and its stockholders or any class of them, any court of equitable jurisdiction within the State of Delaware may, on the application in a summary way of this Corporation or of any creditor or stockholder thereof, or on the application of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under the provisions of Section 291 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code or on the application of trustees in dissolution or of any receiver or receivers appointed for this Corporation under the provisions of Section 279 of Title 8 of the Delaware Code order a meeting of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, to be summoned in such manner as such court directs. If a majority in number representing three-fourths in value of the creditors or class of creditors, and/or of the stockholders or class of stockholders of this Corporation, as the case may be, agree to any compromise or arrangement and to any reorganization of this Corporation as a consequence of such compromise or arrangement, the said compromise or arrangement and the said reorganization shall, if sanctioned by the court to which such application has been made, be binding on all the creditors or class of creditors, and/or on all the stockholders or class of stockholders, of this Corporation, as the case may be, and also on this Corporation.
9. Liability of Directors. To the fullest extent permitted by Delaware statutory or decisional law, as amended or interpreted, no director of this Corporation shall be personally liable to the Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director.

(i) The aggregate amount of the cash and the Market Value as of the Valuation Date of consideration other than cash to be received per share by holders of common stock in such Business Combination is at least equal to the highest of the following:
(A) The highest per share price (including any brokerage commissions, transfer taxes and soliciting dealers’ fees) paid by the Interested Stockholder for any shares of common stock of the same class or series acquired by it: (x) within the 2 year period immediately prior to the Announcement Date of the proposal of the Business Combination; or (y) in the transaction in which it became an Interested Stockholder, whichever is higher; or
(B) The Market Value per share of common stock of the same class or series on the Announcement Date or on the Determination Date, whichever is higher; or

(ii) The aggregate amount of the cash and the Market Value as of the Valuation Date of consideration other than cash to be received per share by holders of shares of any class or series of outstanding stock other than Common Stock is at least equal to the highest of the following (whether or not the Interested Stockholder has previously acquired any shares of a particular class or series of stock):
(A) The highest per share price (including any brokerage commissions, transfer taxes and soliciting dealers’ fees) paid by the Interested Stockholder for any shares of such class of stock acquired by it: (x) within the 2 year period immediately prior to the Announcement Date of the proposal of the Business Combination; or (y) in the transaction in which it became an Interested Stockholder, whichever is higher; or
(B) The highest preferential amount per share to which the holders of shares of such class of stock are entitled in the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation; or

12


 

(D) The price per share equal to the Market Value per share of such class of stock determined pursuant to subparagraph (ii)(B) of this paragraph (a), multiplied by the fraction of: (x) the highest per share price (including any brokerage commissions, transfer taxes and soliciting dealers’ fees) paid by the Interested Stockholder for any shares of any class of Voting Stock acquired by it within the 2 year period immediately prior to the Announcement Date, over (y) the Market Value per share of the same class of voting stock on the first day in such 2 year period on which the Interested Stockholder acquired any shares of the same class of Voting Stock.
(iii) The consideration to be received by holders of any class or series of outstanding stock is to be in cash or in the same form as the Interested Stockholder has previously paid for shares of the same class or series of stock. If the Interested Stockholder has paid for shares of any class of stock with varying forms of consideration, the form of consideration for such class of stock shall be either cash or the form used to acquire the largest number of shares of such class or series of stock previously acquired by it.
(iv) After the Interested Stockholder has become an Interested Stockholder and prior to the consummation of such Business Combination:

1. PURPOSE.
     This McKesson Corporation 2005 Stock Plan is intended to provide Employees and Directors the opportunity to receive equity-based, long-term incentives so that the Corporation may effectively attract and retain the best available personnel, promote the success of the Corporation by motivating Employees and Directors to superior performance, and align Employee and Director interests with those of the Corporation’s stockholders.
2. EFFECTIVE DATE.
     This Plan was initially adopted by the Board on May 25, 2005, subject to stockholder approval, which was granted on July 25, 2005. On October 27, 2006, the Board retroactively amended and restated the Plan to comply with proposed regulations issued under Code section 409A. On May 23, 2007, the Plan was amended by the Board to increase the share reserve by 15,000,000 shares, with such amendment to be effective upon stockholder approval.
3. ADMINISTRATION.
     (a) Administration with respect to Outside Directors.
     With respect to Awards to Outside Directors, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board or (B) the Committee on Directors and Corporate Governance of the Board; provided that such committee consists solely of Directors who qualify as “non-employee directors” for purposes of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all Awards made to members of the Committee on Directors and Corporate Governance shall be approved by the Board.
     (b) Administration with respect to Employees.
     With respect to Awards to Employees, the Plan shall be administered by (A) the Board, (B) the Compensation Committee of the Board; provided that such committee consists solely of Directors who qualify as “outside directors” for purposes of Code section 162(m) and “non-employee directors” for purposes of Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or (C) in limited situations, by an officer or officers of Corporation pursuant to Section 3(c) below.
     (c) Delegation of Authority to an Officer of the Corporation.
          (i) The Board may delegate to a Director the authority to administer the Plan with respect to Awards made to Employees who are not subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act.
          (ii) The Board may delegate to an officer or officers of the Corporation the authority to administer the Plan with respect to Options granted to Employees who are not subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

     (d) Powers of the Administrator.
     The Administrator shall from time to time at its discretion make determinations with respect to Employees and Directors who shall be granted Awards, the number of Shares or Share Equivalents to be subject to each Award, the vesting of Awards, the designation of Options as Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options and other conditions of Awards to Employees and Directors.
     The Administrator shall have the full power and authority, in its sole discretion, to promulgate any rules and regulations which it deems necessary for the proper administration of the Plan, to supervise the administration of the Plan, to make factual determinations relevant to Plan entitlements, to adopt subplans applicable to specified Affiliates or locations and to take all actions in connection with the administration of the Plan as it deems necessary or advisable.
     The Administrator shall have, subject to the terms and conditions and within the limitations of Plan, including the limitations of Section 22, the authority to modify, extend or renew outstanding Awards granted to Employees and Directors under the Plan; provided, that the exercise period of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall not be modified, extended or renewed beyond the later of (i) the fifteenth day of the third month following the date on which the Option or Stock Appreciation Right otherwise would have expired if the Option or Stock Appreciation Right had not been extended, or (ii) December 31 of the calendar year in which the Option or Stock Appreciation Right otherwise would have expired if the Option or Stock Appreciation Right had not been extended, based on the terms of the Option or Stock Appreciation Right on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, no modification of an Award shall, without the consent of the Participant, impair any Award previously granted under the Plan.
     The interpretation and construction by the Administrator of any provisions of the Plan or of any Award shall be final. No member of a Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Award.
4. ELIGIBILITY.
     Subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, Awards may be granted to Employees and Directors. Notwithstanding the foregoing, only employees of the Corporation and its Subsidiaries may be granted Incentive Stock Options.
     (a) Ten Percent Stockholders.
     An Employee who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of outstanding stock of the Corporation, its parent or any of its Subsidiaries is not eligible to receive an Incentive Stock Option pursuant to this Plan unless the Exercise Price of the Incentive Stock Option is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of the underlying Shares on the date of the grant and the term of the option does not exceed five years. For purposes of this Section 4(a) the stock ownership of an Employee shall be determined pursuant to Code section 424(d).

2


 

     (b) Number of Awards.
     A Participant may receive more than one Award, including Awards of the same type, but only on the terms and subject to the restrictions set forth in the Plan. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section 16, the maximum aggregate number of Shares or Share Equivalents that may be subject to Full Value Awards granted to a Participant in any fiscal year of the Corporation is 500,000 Shares or Share Equivalents and the maximum number of Shares or Share Equivalents that may be subject to Options or Stock Appreciation Rights granted to a Participant in any fiscal year of the Corporation is 1,000,000 Shares or Share Equivalents.

If any outstanding Option or Stock Appreciation Right under the Plan for any reason expires or is terminated or any Restricted Stock or Other Share-Based Award is forfeited, then the Shares allocable to the unexercised portion of such Option or Stock Appreciation Right or the forfeited Restricted Stock or Other Share-Based Award may again be available for issuance under the Plan. The following Shares may not again be made available for issuance under the Plan: Shares not issued or delivered as a result of the net exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right or Option; Shares used to pay the withholding taxes related to an Award; or Shares repurchased on the open market with the proceeds of an Exercise Price.
     (b) Limitation.
     Notwithstanding any other provision of Section 5, for any one Share issued in connection with a Full Value Award or a stock-settled Stock Appreciation Right, that Share and one additional Share shall no longer be available for issuance in connection with future Awards.
6. OPTIONS.
     Options granted to Employees and Directors pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by written Option Agreements in such form as the Administrator shall determine. Options shall be designated as Incentive Stock Options or Nonstatutory Stock Options and shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

     Each Option shall state the number of Shares to which it pertains, which shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 16.

3


 

     (b) Exercise Price.
     Each Option shall state the Exercise Price, determined by the Administrator, which shall not be less than 100% the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant, except as provided in Section 16.
     (c) Method of Payment.
     An Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, by giving notice of exercise in the manner prescribed by the Corporation specifying the number of Shares to be purchased. Such notice shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Exercise Price in cash or, if acceptable to the Administrator in its sole discretion (i) in Shares already owned by the Participant (including, without limitation, by attestation to the ownership of such Shares), (ii) by the withholding and surrender of the Shares subject to the Option, or (iii) by delivery (on a form prescribed by the Administrator) of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker approved by the Administrator to sell Shares and to deliver all or part of the sales proceeds to the Corporation in payment of all or part of the purchase price and any withholding taxes. Payment may also be made in any other form approved by the Administrator, consistent with applicable law, regulations and rules.
     (d) Term and Exercise of Options.
     Each Option shall state the time or times when it may become exercisable. No Option shall be exercisable after the expiration of seven years from the date it is granted.
     (e) Limitations on Transferability.
     An Option shall, during a Participant’s lifetime, be exercisable only by the Participant. No Option or any right granted thereunder shall be transferable by the Participant by operation of law or otherwise, other than by will, the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) a Participant may designate a beneficiary to succeed, after the Participant’s death, to all of the Participant’s Options outstanding on the date of death; (ii) a Nonstatutory Stock Option or any right granted thereunder may be transferable pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined in the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act; and (iii) any Participant, who is a senior executive officer recommended by the Chief Executive Officer and approved by the Administrator may voluntarily transfer any Nonstatutory Stock Option to a Family Member as a gift or through a transfer to an entity in which more than 50% of the voting interests are owned by Family Members (or the Participant) in exchange for an interest in that entity. In the event of any attempt by a Participant to alienate, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of an Option or of any right thereunder, except as provided herein, or in the event of the levy of any attachment, execution, or similar process upon the rights or interest hereby conferred, the Corporation at its election may terminate the affected Option by notice to the Participant and the Option shall thereupon become null and void.
     (f) Termination of Employment.
     Each Option Agreement shall set forth the extent to which the Participant shall have the right to exercise the Option following termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Corporation and its Affiliates. Such provisions shall be determined in the sole

4


 

discretion of the Administrator, need not be uniform among all Options issued pursuant to the Plan, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination of employment. Unless otherwise provided in the Option Agreement, the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, extend the post-termination exercise period with respect to an option (but not beyond the original term of such option).
     (g) Rights as a Stockholder.
     A Participant or a transferee of a Participant shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by his or her Option until the date of issuance of such Shares. Except as provided in Section 16, no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date such Shares are issued.
     (h) Limitation of Incentive Stock Option Awards.
     If and to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date the Option is granted) of the Shares with respect to which any Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year under this Plan and all other plans maintained by the Corporation, its parent or its Subsidiaries exceeds $100,000, the Options covering Shares in excess of such amount (taking into account the order in which the Options were granted) shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options.
     (i) Other Terms and Conditions.
     The Option Agreement may contain such other terms and conditions, including restrictions or conditions on the vesting of the Option or the conditions under which the Option may be forfeited, as may be determined by the Administrator that are consistent with the Plan.
7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS.
     Stock Appreciation Rights granted to Employees pursuant to the Plan may be granted alone, in addition to, or in conjunction with, Options. Stock Appreciation Rights shall be evidenced by written Stock Appreciation Right Agreements in such form as the Administrator shall determine and shall be subject to the following terms and conditions:

     Each Stock Appreciation Right shall state the number of Shares or Share Equivalents to which it pertains, which shall be subject to adjustment in accordance with Section 16.
     (b) Calculation of Appreciation; Exercise Price.
     The appreciation distribution payable on the exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right will be equal to the excess of (i) the aggregate Fair Market Value (on the date of exercise of the Stock Appreciation Right) of a number of Shares equal to the number of Shares or Share Equivalents in which the Participant is vested under such Stock Appreciation Right on such date, over (ii) an amount that will be determined by the Administrator on the date of grant of the Stock

5


 

Appreciation Right but that shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant (the “Exercise Price”).
     (c) Term and Exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights.
     Each Stock Appreciation Right shall state the time or times when may become exercisable. No Stock Appreciation Right shall be exercisable after the expiration of seven years from the date it is granted.
     (d) Payment.
     The appreciation distribution in respect of a Stock Appreciation Right may be paid in Common Stock or in cash, or any combination of the two, or in any other form of consideration as determined by the Administrator and contained in the Stock Appreciation Right Agreement.
     (e) Limitations on Transferability.
     A Stock Appreciation Right shall, during a Participant’s lifetime, be exercisable only by the Participant.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) a Participant may designate a beneficiary to succeed, after the Participant’s death, to all of the Participant’s Stock Appreciation Rights outstanding on the date of death; (ii) a stand-alone Stock Appreciation Right or a Stock Appreciation Right granted in conjunction with a Nonstatutory Stock Option or any right granted thereunder may be transferable pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined in the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act; and (iii) any Participant, who is a senior executive officer recommended by the Chief Executive Officer and approved by the Administrator may voluntarily transfer any stand-alone Stock Appreciation Right or a Stock Appreciation Right granted in conjunction with a Nonstatutory Stock Option to a Family Member as a gift or through a transfer to an entity in which more than 50% of the voting interests are owned by Family Members (or the Participant) in exchange for an interest in that entity. In the event of any attempt by a Participant to alienate, assign, pledge, hypothecate, or otherwise dispose of a Stock Appreciation Right or of any right thereunder, except as provided herein, or in the event of the levy of any attachment, execution, or similar process upon the rights or interest hereby conferred, the Corporation at its election may terminate the affected Stock Appreciation Right by notice to the Participant and the Stock Appreciation Right shall thereupon become null and void.
     (f) Termination of Employment.
     Each Stock Appreciation Right Agreement shall set forth the extent to which the Participant shall have the right to exercise the Stock Appreciation Right following termination of the Participant’s employment or service with the Corporation and its Affiliates. Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator, need not be uniform among all Stock Appreciation Right Agreements entered into pursuant to the Plan, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination of employment.

A book entry shall be made in the records of the Corporation’ transfer agent for each Participant receiving a Restricted Stock Award, alternatively, such Participant shall be issued a stock certificate in respect of such shares of Restricted Stock. If a certificate is issued, it shall be registered in the name of such Participant, and shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the terms, conditions, and restrictions applicable to such Award. The Administrator shall require that stock certificates evidencing such shares be held by the Corporation until the restrictions lapse and that, as a condition of any Restricted Stock Award, the Participant shall deliver to the Corporation a “stock assignment separate from certificate” relating to the stock covered by such Award.
     (b) Restrictions and Conditions.

7


 

domestic relations order as defined in the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. Within these limits, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide for the lapse of such restrictions in installments and may accelerate or waive such restrictions in whole or in part, based on service, performance, a Change in Control or such other factors or criteria as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion.
          (ii) Except as provided in this paragraph (ii) and paragraph (i) above, the Participant shall have, with respect to the shares of Restricted Stock, all of the rights of a stockholder of the Corporation, including the right to vote the shares and the right to receive any cash dividends. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, as determined at the time of Award, may provide that the payment of cash dividends shall or may be deferred and, if the Administrator so determines, invested in additional shares of Restricted Stock to the extent available under Section 5, or otherwise invested. Stock dividends issued with respect to Restricted Stock shall be treated as additional shares of Restricted Stock that are subject to the same restrictions and other terms and conditions that apply to the shares with respect to which such dividends are issued.
          (iii) The Administrator shall specify the conditions under which shares of Restricted Stock may be forfeited and such conditions shall be set forth in the Restricted Stock Agreement.
          (iv) If and when the Restriction Period applicable to shares of Restricted Stock expires without a prior forfeiture of the Restricted Stock, an appropriate book entry recording the Participant’s interest in unrestricted Shares shall be entered on the records of the Corporation’s transfer agent or, if appropriate, certificates for an appropriate number of unrestricted Shares shall be delivered promptly to the Participant, and the certificates for the shares of Restricted Stock shall be canceled.
9. RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS.

The Administrator may condition the grant of Restricted Stock Unit Awards upon the attainment of specified performance objectives established by the Administrator pursuant to Section 13 or such other factors as the Administrator may determine, in its sole discretion.
     The terms of each Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be set forth in a Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement between the Corporation and the Participant, which Agreement shall contain such provisions as the Administrator determines to be necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent of the Plan. No book entry shall be made in the records of the Corporation’s transfer agent for a Participant receiving a Restricted Stock Unit Award, nor shall such

8


 

Participant be issued a stock certificate in respect of such Restricted Stock Units, and the Participant shall have no right to or interest in shares of Common Stock of the Corporation as a result of the grant of Restricted Stock Units.
     (b) Restrictions and Conditions.
     The Restricted Stock Units awarded pursuant to this Section 9 shall be subject to the following restrictions and conditions:
          (i) At the time of grant of a Restricted Stock Unit Award, the Administrator may impose such restrictions or conditions on the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, as the Administrator deems appropriate. During such vesting period, the Participant shall not be permitted to sell, transfer, pledge, assign or encumber the Restricted Stock Units, other than pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined in the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. Within these limits, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may provide for the lapse of such restrictions in installments and may accelerate or waive such restrictions in whole or in part, based on service, performance, a Change in Control or such other factors or criteria as the Administrator may determine in its sole discretion.
          (ii) Dividend equivalents may be credited in respect of Restricted Stock Units, as the Administrator deems appropriate. Such dividend equivalents may be credited on behalf of the Participant to a deferred cash account (in a manner prescribed by the Administrator and in compliance with Code section 409A) or converted into additional Restricted Stock Units by dividing (1) the aggregate amount or value of the dividends paid with respect to that number of Shares equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units then credited by (2) the Fair Market Value per Share on the payment date for such dividend. The additional Restricted Stock Units credited by reason of such dividend equivalents will be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the underlying Restricted Stock Unit Award to which they relate.
          (iii) The Administrator shall specify the conditions under which Restricted Stock Units may be forfeited and such conditions shall be set forth in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.
     (c) Deferral Election.
     Each recipient of a Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be entitled to elect to defer all or a percentage of any Shares he or she may be entitled to receive upon the lapse of any restrictions or vesting period to which the Award is subject. This election shall be made by giving notice in a manner and within the time prescribed by the Administrator and in compliance with Code section 409A.
10. OUTSIDE DIRECTOR AWARDS.
     Each Outside Director may be granted a Restricted Stock Unit Award on the date of each annual stockholders meeting for up to 5,000 Share Equivalents, as determined by the Board. Such limitation is subject to adjustment as provided in Section 16. Each Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be fully vested on the date of grant; provided, however, that receipt of any Shares as payment for the Restricted Stock Unit Award shall be delayed until such time as the Outside

9


 

Director’s service with the Corporation terminates. Dividend equivalents may be credited in respect of Restricted Stock Units, as the Administrator deems appropriate. Such dividend equivalents may be credited on behalf of the Participant to a deferred cash account (in a manner prescribed by the Administrator and in compliance with Code section 409A) or converted into additional Restricted Stock Units by dividing (1) the aggregate amount or value of the dividends paid with respect to that number of Shares equal to the number of Restricted Stock Units then credited by (2) the Fair Market Value per Share on the payment date for such dividend. The additional Restricted Stock Units credited by reason of such dividend equivalents will be subject to all of the terms and conditions of the underlying Restricted Stock Unit Award to which they relate. Other terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Unit Awards granted to Outside Directors shall be determined by the Board subject to the provisions of Section 9 and the Plan.
11. PERFORMANCE SHARES.
     (a) Grants.
     Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator shall have sole and complete authority to determine the Employees to whom, and the time or times at which, grants of Performance Shares will be made, the number of Performance Shares to be awarded, the price (if any) to be paid by the recipient of the Performance Shares, the time or times within which such Performance Shares may be subject to forfeiture, and all other terms and conditions of the Performance Shares.
     The terms of Performance Shares shall be set forth in a Performance Share Agreement between the Corporation and the Participant, which Agreement shall contain such provisions as the Administrator determines to be necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent of the Plan. With respect to a Performance Shares, no book entry shall be made in the records of the Corporation’s transfer agent nor shall certificate for shares of Common Stock be issued at the time the grant is made, and the Participant shall have no right to or interest in shares of Common Stock of the Corporation as a result of the grant of Performance Shares.
     (b) Restrictions and Conditions.
          (i) The Performance Shares awarded pursuant to this Section 11 shall be subject to the following restrictions and conditions: The Administrator may condition the grant of Performance Shares upon the attainment of specified performance objectives established by the Administrator pursuant to Section 13 or such other factors as the Administrator may determine, in its sole discretion or the Administrator may, at the time of grant of a Performance Share Award, set performance objectives in its discretion which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number of Performance Shares that will be paid out to the Participant. In either case, the time period during which the performance objectives must be met is called the “Performance Period.” After the applicable Performance Period has ended, the recipient of the Performance Shares will be entitled to receive the number of Performance Shares earned by the Participant over the Performance Period, to be determined as a function of the extent to which the corresponding performance objectives have been achieved, and which shares may be subject to additional vesting. After the grant of Performance Shares, the Administrator,

10


 

in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any performance objective for such Performance Shares.
12. OTHER SHARE-BASED AWARDS.
     (a) Grants.
     Other Awards of Shares and other Awards that are valued in whole or in part by reference to, or are otherwise based on, Shares (“Other Share-Based Awards”), may be granted either alone or in addition to or in conjunction with other Awards under this Plan. Awards under this Section 12 may include (without limitation) the grant of Shares conditioned upon some specified event, the payment of cash based upon the performance of the Common Stock or the grant of securities convertible into Common Stock.
     Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Administrator shall have sole and complete authority to determine the Employees to whom and the time or times at which Other Share-Based Awards shall be made, the number of Shares, Share Equivalents or other securities, if any, to be granted pursuant to Other Share-Based Awards, and all other conditions of the Other Share-Based Awards. The Administrator may condition the grant of an Other Share-Based Award upon the attainment of specified performance goals or such other factors as the Administrator shall determine, in its sole discretion. In granting an Other Share-Based Award, the Administrator may determine that the recipient of an Other Share-Based Award shall be entitled to receive, currently or on a deferred basis, interest or dividends or dividend equivalents with respect to the Shares or other securities covered by the Award, and the Administrator may provide that such amounts (if any) shall be deemed to have been reinvested in additional Shares or otherwise reinvested. The terms of any Other Share-Based Award shall be set forth in an Other Share-Based Award Agreement between the Corporation and the Participant, which Agreement shall contain such provisions as the Administrator determines to be necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent of the Plan.
     (b) Terms and Conditions.
     In addition to the terms and conditions specified in the Other Share-Based Award Agreement, Other Share-Based Awards shall be subject to the following:
          (i) Any Other Share-Based Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, other than pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order as defined in the Code or Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act, prior to the date on which the Shares are issued or the Award becomes payable, or, if later, the date on which any applicable restriction, performance or deferral period lapses.
          (ii) The Other Share-Based Award Agreement shall contain provisions dealing with the disposition of such Award in the event of termination of the Employee’s employment or the Director’s service prior to the exercise, realization or payment of such Award, and the Administrator in its sole discretion may provide for payment of the Award in the event of the Participant’s termination of employment or service with the Corporation or a Change in Control, with such provisions to take account of the specific nature and purpose of the Award.

11


 

13. PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES.
     The Administrator shall determine the terms and conditions of Awards at the date of grant or thereafter; provided that performance objectives, if any, for each year related to an Award granted to a Covered Employee shall be established by the Administrator not later than the latest date permissible under Section 162(m). To the extent that such Awards are paid to Covered Employees, the performance criteria to be used shall be any of the following, either alone or in any combination, which may be expressed with respect to the Corporation or one or more operating units or groups, as the Compensation Committee of the Board may determine: cash flow; cash flow from operations; total earnings; earnings per share, diluted or basic; earnings per share from continuing operations, diluted or basic; earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization; earnings from operations; net asset turnover; inventory turnover; capital expenditures; net earnings; operating earnings; gross or operating margin; debt; working capital; return on equity; return on net assets; return on total assets; return on investment; return on capital; return on committed capital; return on invested capital; return on sales; net or gross sales; market share; economic value added; cost of capital; change in assets; expense reduction levels; debt reduction; productivity; stock price; customer satisfaction; employee satisfaction; and total shareholder return. In addition, such performance goals may be based upon the attainment of specified levels of the Corporation’s performance under one or more of the measures described above relative to the performance of other corporations, may be (but need not be) different from year-to-year, and different performance objectives may be applicable to different Participants.
     Performance objectives may be determined on an absolute basis or relative to internal goals or relative to levels attained in prior years or related to other companies or indices or as ratios expressing relationships between two or more performance objectives. In addition, performance objectives may be based upon the attainment of specified levels of corporate performance under one or more of the measures described above relative to the performance of other corporations. The Administrator shall specify the manner of adjustment of any performance objective to the extent necessary to prevent dilution or enlargement of any Award as a result of extraordinary events or circumstances, as determined by the Administrator, or to exclude the effects of extraordinary, unusual, or non-recurring items; changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles; currency fluctuations; discontinued operations; non-cash items, such as amortization, depreciation, or reserves; asset impairment; or any recapitalization, restructuring, reorganization, merger, acquisition, divestiture, consolidation, spin-off, split-up, combination, liquidation, dissolution, sale of assets, or other similar corporate transaction.
14. ACCELERATION OF VESTING AND EXERCISABILITY.
     The Administrator shall have the power to accelerate the time at which an Award may first be exercised or the time during which an Award or any part thereof will vest, notwithstanding the provisions in the Award stating the time at which it may first be exercised or the time during which it will vest.

12


 

15. CHANGE IN CONTROL.
     (a) An Award may be subject to additional acceleration of vesting and exercisability upon or after a Change in Control as may be provided in the applicable agreement and determined by the Committee on a grant by grant basis or as may be provided in any other written agreement between the Company or any Affiliate and the Participant; provided, however, that in the absence of such provision, no such acceleration shall occur.
     (b) A “Change in Control” of the Corporation shall be deemed to have occurred if any of the events set forth in any one of the following paragraphs shall occur:
          (i) Any “person” (as such term is used in sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act), excluding the Corporation or any of its affiliates, a trustee or any fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Corporation or any of its affiliates, an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to an offering of such securities or a Corporation owned, directly or indirectly, by stockholders of the Corporation in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of the Corporation, is or becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Corporation representing 30% or more of the combined voting power of the Corporation’s then outstanding securities; or
          (ii) During any period of not more than two consecutive years, individuals who at the beginning of such period constitute the Board and any new director (other than a director designated by a Person who has entered into an agreement with the Corporation to effect a transaction described in clause (i), (iii) or (iv) of this paragraph) whose election by the Board or nomination for election by the Corporation’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the directors then still in office who either were directors at the beginning of the period or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved, cease for any reason to constitute a majority thereof; or
          (iii) The shareholders of the Corporation approve a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with any other Corporation, other than (A) a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Corporation outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being converted into voting securities of the surviving entity), in combination with the ownership of any trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of the Corporation, at least 50% of the combined voting power of the voting securities of the Corporation or such surviving entity outstanding immediately after such merger or consolidation, or (B) a merger or consolidation effected to implement a recapitalization of the Corporation (or similar transaction) in which no person acquires more than 50% of the combined voting power of the Corporation’s then outstanding securities; or
          (iv) The shareholders of the Corporation approve a plan of complete liquidation of the Corporation or an agreement for the sale or disposition by the Corporation of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s assets.

13


 

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Change in Control shall be deemed to have occurred if there is consummated any transaction or series of integrated transactions immediately following which the holders of the Stock immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions continue to have the same proportionate ownership in an entity which owns all or substantially all of the assets of the Corporation immediately prior to such transaction or series of transactions.
16. RECAPITALIZATION.
     In the event that the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine that any dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, stock, or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, spin-off, combination, repurchase, or share exchange, or other similar corporate transaction or event, affects the Common Stock such that an adjustment is appropriate in order to preserve (but not increase) the rights of participants under the Plan, then the Administrator shall make such equitable changes or adjustments as it deems necessary or appropriate to any or all of (i) the number and kind of shares which may thereafter be issued in connection with respect to Awards pursuant to Sections 4(b) and 5, (ii) the number and kind of shares issued in respect of outstanding Awards, and (iii) the Exercise Price relating to any Options or Stock Appreciation Right.

     (b) Employment Rights.

The Corporation and its Affiliates reserve the right to terminate the employment of any Employee at any time, with or without cause or for no cause, subject only to a written employment contract (if any), and the Board reserves the right to terminate a Director’s membership on the Board for cause in accordance with the Corporation’s Certificate of Incorporation.

14

No adjustment shall be made for cash dividends or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date when such book entry is made or such certificate is issued.
19. AWARDS IN FOREIGN COUNTRIES.
     The Administrator shall have the authority to adopt such modifications, rules, procedures and subplans as may be necessary or desirable to facilitate compliance with the provisions of the laws and procedures of foreign countries in which the Corporation or its Affiliates may operate to assure the viability of the benefits of Awards made to Participants employed in such countries and to meet the intent of the Plan.
20. BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION.
     Participants and their Beneficiaries may designate on the prescribed form one or more Beneficiaries to whom distribution shall be made of any Award outstanding at the time of the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s death. A Participant or Beneficiary may change such designation at any time by filing the prescribed form with the Administrator. If a Beneficiary has not been designated or if no designated Beneficiary survives the Participant, distribution will be made to the Participant’s spouse, or if none, the Participant’s children in equal shares, or if none, to the residuary beneficiary under the terms of the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s last will and testament or, in the absence of a last will and testament, to the Participant’s or Beneficiary’s estate as Beneficiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may prescribe specific methods or restrictions on beneficiary designations made Participants or Beneficiaries located outside of the United States.
21. AMENDMENT OF THE PLAN.
     The Board may suspend or discontinue the Plan at any time. The Compensation Committee of the Board may amend the Plan with respect to any Shares at the time not subject to Awards; provided, however, that only the Board may amend the Plan and submit the Plan to the stockholders of the Corporation for approval with respect to amendments that:

23. USE OF PROCEEDS FROM STOCK.
     Proceeds from the sale of Common Stock pursuant to Awards shall constitute general funds of the Corporation.
24. NO OBLIGATION TO EXERCISE OPTION OR STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHT.
     The granting of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall impose no obligation upon the Participant to exercise such Option or Stock Appreciation Right.
25. APPROVAL OF STOCKHOLDERS.
     This Plan and any amendments requiring stockholder approval pursuant to Section 21 shall be subject to approval by affirmative vote of the stockholders. Such vote shall be taken at the first annual meeting of stockholders of the Corporation following the adoption of the Plan or of any such amendments, or any adjournment of such meeting.
26. GOVERNING LAW.
     The law of the State of Delaware shall govern all question concerning the construction, validity and interpretation of the Plan, without regard to the state’s conflict of laws rules.
27. INTERPRETATION.

The Corporation shall not be required to make such payment or distribution until such obligations are satisfied.
     (b) Other Awards.
     The Administrator may permit a Participant who exercises an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or who vests in an other Award to satisfy all or part of his or her withholding tax obligations by having the Corporation withhold a portion of the Shares that otherwise would be issued to him or her under such Awards. Such Shares shall be valued at the Fair Market Value on the date when taxes otherwise would be withheld in cash.
