                           CUSTOMER DISCUSSION POINTS

I.   THE COMBINATION WILL PRODUCE SUBSTANTIAL OPERATING EFFICIENCIES AND COST
     SAVINGS

     The combination will generate substantial operating efficiencies and reduce
     operating costs for the combined company beyond savings that either party
     could achieve independently.

II.  THE MERGER WILL ENABLE THE ESTABLISHMENT OF LARGER AND MORE SOPHISTICATED
     PURCHASING AND SUPPORT PROGRAMS WITH MANUFACTURERS

     AmeriSource-Bergen will be able to establish larger and more sophisticated
     purchasing and support programs with pharmaceutical manufacturers designed
     to further reduce costs in the healthcare supply channel

III. THE NEW COMPANY WILL RESULT IN THE ENHANCEMENT AND FURTHER DEVELOPMENT OF A
     WIDE RANGE OF PROGRAMS AND SERVICES FOR ALL CUSTOMER SEGMENTS

     The combined company's software systems, order-entry and customer inventory
     management systems, and third-party transaction processing systems will be
     enhanced as a result of the merger.  While we recognize you have a variety
     of sources to obtain all the services we provide you, after the merger you
     will have access to ancillary services currently available through
     AmeriSource.

IV.  POST-MERGER INDUSTRY WILL REMAIN FIERCELY COMPETITIVE

     You can expect that our competitors and others may attempt to create
     concerns about the merger.  We believe that the creation of a more
     efficient wholesaler will continue to stimulate fierce competition among
     all members of the drug wholesaling industry.
