McKESSON CORPORATION
LONG-TERM INCENTIVE PLAN
(As Amended and Restated Effective July 31, 2002)
1. NAME AND PURPOSE.
The name of this plan is the McKesson Corporation Long-Term Incentive Plan (the
"Plan"). Its purpose is to advance and promote the interests of the stockholders
of McKesson Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company") by attracting
and retaining employees who strive for excellence, and to motivate those
employees to set and achieve above-average financial objectives by providing
competitive compensation for those who contribute most to the operating progress
and earning power of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates.
2. ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN.
The Plan shall be administered by a committee (the "Committee") consisting of
not less than two directors of the Company to be appointed by the Board, each of
whom is an "outside director" within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. No member of the Committee shall be
eligible to receive benefits under the Plan. The Committee shall have the sole
authority, in its absolute discretion, to adopt, amend, and rescind such rules
and regulations as, in its opinion, may be advisable in the administration of
the Plan, to construe and interpret the Plan, the rules and regulations, and to
make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for the
administration of the Plan. All decisions, determinations and interpretations of
the Committee shall be final and binding on all employees who participate in the
Plan (the "Participants") and other interested parties.
3. ELIGIBILITY.
Participation in the Plan shall be limited to those full-time, salaried key
officers and/OR other employees of the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates
who are selected from time to time by the Committee. Participants in the Plan
are also eligible to participate in any incentive plan of the Company.
4. CALCULATION OF AWARDS.
Awards under the Plan shall be made in the sole discretion of the Committee.
After the close of the period for which an award may be made (a "Performance
Period"), the Committee shall determine the dollar amount of the award to be
made to each Participant whom the Committee has selected to be an award
recipient for that Performance Period; provided, however, that the award amount
for any individual who is a "covered employee" (as defined in regulations
adopted pursuant to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended) of the Company on the last day of a Performance Period (the "Specified
Officers") shall be subject to the following limitations:

equal the indicated percentage of the aggregate fund set forth in (a) above,
determined pursuant to the following schedule:

(c) The Committee in its sole discretion may reduce the award
otherwise payable to any Specified Officer as determined above, but in no event
may any such reduction result in an increase of the award payable to any other
Participant, including but not limited to any other Specified Officer.
5. PAYMENT OF AWARDS.
All awards to Participants pursuant to the Plan shall be paid in cash, provided,
however, that, at the Participant's election, receipt of all or part of an award
may be deferred under the terms of the Company's Deferred Compensation
Administration Plan II in the manner prescribed by regulations established by
the Committee.
A Participant shall have no right to receive payment of any award under the Plan
unless he or she has satisfied regulations prescribed by the Committee at the
time of making the award and the Committee has determined that the performance
objectives applicable to such award, if any, have been achieved.
Any other provision of the Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, if the
Committee determines that a Participant has engaged in any of the actions
described in (c) below, the consequences set forth in (a) and (b) below shall
result:
(a) Any outstanding award shall be forfeited immediately and
automatically and shall not be payable to the Participant under any
circumstances.
(b) If the Participant received payment of an award within six
months prior to the date that the Company discovered that the Participant
engaged in any action described in (c) below the Participant, upon written
notice from the Company, shall immediately repay to the Company in cash the
amount of such award (including any amounts withheld pursuant to Paragraph 8).

(c) The consequences described in (a) and (b) shall apply if the
Participant, either before or after termination of employment with the Company
or one of its subsidiaries or affiliates:

own purpose or the purpose of others, any trade secrets, confidential
information, knowledge, data or know-how belonging to the Company or any of its
subsidiaries or affiliates and obtained by the Participant during the term of
his or her employment, whether or not they are the Participant's work product.

limited to) customer lists, supplier lists, pricing and cost data, computer
programs, delivery routes, advertising plans, wage and salary data, financial
information, research and development plans, processes, equipment, product
information and all other types and categories of information as to which the
Participant knows or has reason to know that the Company or its subsidiaries or
affiliates intends or expects secrecy to be maintained;
(ii) fails to promptly return all documents and other
tangible items belonging to the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates
in the Participant's possession or control, including all complete or partial
