The amendment to the share purchase agreement (the Second Amendment) increased the price paid per share of Celesio AG (Celesio) from 23.00 to 23.50 and deleted Section 3.2 of the SPA, the result of which being that Haniel waived the right to participate in any further increases to the price paid per share. On December 19, 2013, the Company, McKesson AcquiCo and Haniel also amended the SPA to make an immaterial technical change to the settlement procedure (the First Amendment and, together with the Second Amendment, the Amendments).

On January 9, 2014, McKesson increased the purchase price offered in the Share Offer to 23.50 per share and the purchase price offered in the Bond Offers to a price corresponding to the value of the underlying shares implied by a 23.50 per share offer price, which equals 54,273.00 per bond for Celesios convertible bond due 2014 (principal amount of 50,000) and 123,424.00 per bond for Celesios convertible bond due 2018 (principal amount of 100,000).
