Subject:	Launch of the Cardinal Health, Inc. Stock Option Exchange Program for Eligible Employees Working in France
Date:

I am pleased to announce that we have officially launched the Cardinal Health, Inc. Stock Option Exchange Program effective today, Friday, June 19, 2009. The Stock Option Exchange Program provides eligible employees working in France an opportunity to voluntarily exchange certain employee stock options for new French qualified restricted share units covering a lesser number of Cardinal Health common shares (the “Offer”). The Offer expires at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on Friday, July 17, 2009, unless we extend the Offer, and is subject to terms and conditions described in the document titled “Offer to Exchange Certain Outstanding Stock Options for New Stock Options” (included as an attachment to this email). Your election to participate must be received prior to the expiration of the Offer if you wish to participate in the Offer. You may change or withdraw your election to participate at any time prior to the expiration of the Offer.

In this Offer email:

This email contains important information about the Offer, including:

• the Offer to Exchange Certain Outstanding Stock Options for New Stock Options;

• the Form of Restricted Share Units Agreement;

• two identical copies of a personalized paper Election Form, which contains a list of your eligible options, including the eligible option grant dates, the exercise price of your eligible options, the number of shares subject to your eligible options, the exchange ratio and the number of shares that would be subject to your new restricted share units if you were to elect to participate in the Offer; and

• country-specific information regarding tax and social insurance consequences of participating in the Offer including specific terms of the new restricted share units.

We are making this Offer on the terms and subject to the conditions described in the Offer to Exchange Certain Outstanding Stock Options for New Stock Options and the Election Form.

Within the next two weeks, we will send you a link to an informational webcast about the opportunity as well as an invitation to a telephone conference call for all French eligible employees that will give you the opportunity to ask questions.
