McKESSON CORPORATION
7 3/4% NOTE DUE FEBRUARY 1, 2012
McKesson Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Issuer," which
term includes any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred
to), for value received, hereby promises to pay to, Cede & Co., or registered
assigns, the principal sum of Four Hundred Million Dollars ($400,000,000) on
February 1, 2012 and to pay interest on said principal sum from January 29,
2002, or from the most recent interest payment date to which interest has been
paid or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on February 1 and August 1,
(each such date, an "Interest Payment Date") of each year commencing on August
1, 2002, at the rate of 7 3/4% per annum until the principal hereof shall have
become due and payable.
The amount of interest payable on any Interest Payment Date shall
be computed on the basis of a 360-day year comprised of twelve 30-day months. In
the event that any date on which the principal or interest payable on this Note
is not a Business Day, then payment of principal or interest payable on such
date will be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and without
any interest or other payment in respect of such delay). The interest
installment so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any
Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture (referred to on the
reverse hereof) be paid to the person in whose name this Note is registered at
the close of business on the record date for such interest installment, which
shall be the close of business on the
immediately preceding January 15 and July 15 prior to such Interest Payment
Date, as applicable. Any such interest installment not punctually paid or duly
provided for shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered holders on
such record date and may be paid to the person in whose name this Note is
registered at the close of business on a subsequent record date (which shall be
not less than five Business Days prior to the date of payment of such defaulted
interest), notice whereof shall be given by mail by or on behalf of the Issuer
to the registered holders of Notes not less than 15 days preceding such
subsequent record date, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. The
principal of and the interest on this Note shall be payable at the office or
agency of the Issuer maintained for that purpose in any coin or currency of the
United States of America that at the time of payment is legal tender for payment
of public and private debts; provided, however, that payment of interest may be
made at the option of the Issuer by check mailed to the person entitled thereto
at such address as shall appear in the registry books of the Issuer; provided,
further that for so long as this Note is represented by a Registered Global
Security, payment of principal, premium, if any, or interest on this Note may be
made by wire transfer to the account of the Depositary or its nominee.
Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed
by or on behalf of the Trustee (as defined below) under the Indenture (as
defined below), by the manual signature of one of its authorized officers, this
Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or
obligatory for any purpose.
Capitalized terms used in this Note which are defined in the
Indenture shall have the respective meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.
The provisions of this Note are continued on the reverse side
hereof and such continued provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect
as though fully set forth at this place.

[FORM OF REVERSE SIDE OF NOTE]
This Note is one of a duly authorized series of securities (the
"Securities") of the Issuer designated as its 7 3/4% Notes due February 1, 2012
(the "Notes"). The Securities are all issued or to be issued under and pursuant
to an Indenture, dated as of January 29, 2002 (the "Indenture"), duly executed
and delivered between the Issuer and The Bank of New York, a New York banking
corporation (the "Trustee," which term includes any successor Trustee with
respect to the Securities under the Indenture), to which the Indenture and all
indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the
respective rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Trustee and the holders of the
Securities and the terms upon which the Notes are to be authenticated and
delivered. The terms of individual series of Securities may vary with respect to
interest rate or interest rate formulas, issue dates, maturity, redemption,
repayment, currency of payment and otherwise.
The Notes are issuable only as Registered Securities in minimum
denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. As
provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth,
the Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes as
requested by the holder surrendering the same.
Except as set forth below, this Note is not redeemable and is not
entitled to the benefit of a sinking fund or any analogous provision.
This Note is redeemable, in whole or in part, at the option of
the Issuer, at any time at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100%
of its principal amount and (ii) as determined by the Quotation Agent, the sum
of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and
interest thereon (not including any portion of those payments of interest
accrued as of the date of redemption) discounted to the date of redemption on a
semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months)
at the Adjusted Treasury Rate plus 30 basis points, plus, in each case, accrued
interest thereon to the date of redemption. The Holder of this Note will receive
notice thereof by first-class mail at least 30 and not more than 60 days prior
to the date fixed for redemption. Unless the Issuer defaults in payment of the
redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to
accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.
"Adjusted Treasury Rate" means, with respect to any date of
redemption, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to
maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable
Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the
Comparable Treasury Price for that date of redemption.
4
"Comparable Treasury Issue" means the United States Treasury
security selected by the Quotation Agent as having a maturity comparable to the
remaining term of the Note that would be utilized, at the time of selection and
in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of
corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the
Note.
"Comparable Treasury Price" means, with respect to any date of
redemption, (i) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for the
date of redemption, after excluding the highest and lowest Reference Treasury
Dealer Quotations, or (ii) if the Trustee obtains fewer than three Reference
Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all such Reference Treasury Dealer
Quotations.
"Quotation Agent" means J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. or another
Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Issuer.
"Reference Treasury Dealer" means (i) each of J.P. Morgan
Securities Inc. and Banc of America Securities LLC and their respective
successors; provided, however, that if either of the foregoing shall cease to be
a primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City (a "Primary
Treasury Dealer"), the Issuer shall substitute another Primary Treasury Dealer;
and (ii) any other Primary Treasury Dealer selected by the Issuer.
"Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations" means, with respect to
each Reference Treasury Dealer and any date of redemption, the average, as
determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable
Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount)
quoted in writing to the Trustee by that Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m.,
New York City time, on the third business day preceding that date of redemption.
If an Event of Default with respect to the Notes shall occur and
be continuing, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in
the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture.
The Indenture contains provisions permitting the Issuer and the
Trustee, with the consent of the holders of not less than a majority in
aggregate principal amount of the Senior Securities or Subordinated Securities,
as the case may be, of all series issued under such Indenture then outstanding
and affected (each voting as one class), to add any provisions to, or change in
any manner, eliminate or waive any of the provisions of, such Indenture or
modify in any manner the rights of the holders of the Securities of each series
or Coupons so affected; provided that the Issuer and the Trustee may not,
without the consent of the holder of each Outstanding Security affected there-
by, (i) extend the final maturity of the principal of any Security or reduce the
principal
5
amount thereof or premium thereon, if any, or reduce the rate or extend the time
of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any amount payable on redemption
thereof or change the currency in which the principal thereof (other than as
otherwise may be provided with respect to such series), premium, if any, or
interest thereon is payable or reduce the amount of the principal of any
Original Issue Discount Security that is payable upon acceleration or provable
in bankruptcy, or in the case of Subordinated Securities of any series, modify
any of the subordination provisions or the definition of "Senior Indebtedness"
relating to such series in a manner adverse to the holders of such Subordinated
Securities, or alter certain provisions of the Indenture relating to Securities
not denominated in Dollars or the Judgment Currency of such Securities or impair
or affect the right of any Securityholder to institute suit for the enforcement
of any payment thereof when due or, if the Securities provide therefor, any
right of repayment at the option of the Securityholder or (ii) reduce the
aforesaid percentage in principal amount of Securities of any series issued
under the Indenture, the consent of the holders of which is required for any
such modification. It is also provided in the Indenture that, with respect to
certain defaults or Events of Default regarding the Securities of any series,
the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount Outstanding of the
Securities of each such series, each such series voting as a separate class (or,
of all Securities, as the case may be voting as a single class) may under
certain circumstances waive all defaults with respect to each such series (or
with respect to all the Securities, as the case may be) and rescind and annul a
declaration of default and its consequences, but no such waiver or rescission
and annulment shall extend to or affect any subsequent default or shall impair
any right consequent thereto. The preceding sentence shall not, however, apply
to a default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any of the
Securities.
No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this
Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the Issuer,
which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of and interest on
this Note at the time, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein
prescribed.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations
therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the registry
books of the Issuer, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at
the office or agency of the Issuer maintained by the Issuer for such purpose in
the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, duly endorsed by, or accompanied
by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer and the
Trustee duly executed by, the holder hereof or by its attorney duly authorized
in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of authorized denominations and
for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated
transferee or transferees.
6
No service charge shall be made for any such registration of
transfer or exchange, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection
therewith.
Prior to due presentment of this Note for registration of
transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee may
treat the person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for
all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue, and neither the Issuer, the
Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.
THIS NOTE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, SECTION 5-1401
OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW.
