PROMISSORY NOTE
(Competitive Bid Facility)
$_______________ Indianapolis, Indiana
Dated: ________________
Maturity: December 14, 2000
On or before December 14, 2000, BINDLEY WESTERN INDUSTRIES, INC., an
Indiana corporation (the "Maker"), promises to pay to the order of BANK ONE,
INDIANA, N.A. (the "Bank") the principal sum of $______________ or so much of
such Competitive Bid Advance as may be disbursed by the Bank under the terms of
the Credit Agreement described below and remaining outstanding and unpaid, and
to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance of such Competitive Bid Advance
outstanding from time to time as provided in this Note.
This Note evidences indebtedness (the "Competitive Bid Facility") incurred
or to be incurred by the Maker under a credit facility extended to the Maker by
the Bank under that certain First Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement dated as of December 16, 1999, among the Maker, the Bank, the other
banks party thereto, and Bank One, Indiana, NA, as Agent (as from time to time
amended, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified, the "Credit Agreement").
The principal amount of the Competitive Bid Facility outstanding from time to
time shall be determined by reference to the books and records of the Bank on
which all Advances under the Competitive Bid Facility and all payments by the
Maker on account of the Competitive Bid Facility shall be recorded. Such books
and records shall be deemed prima facie to be correct as to such matters.
----- -----
The terms "Competitive Bid Advance," "Maturity Date," and "Banking Day" are
used in this Note as defined in the Credit Agreement.
Interest on the unpaid principal balance of this Note outstanding from time
to time prior to and after the Maturity Date for such Competitive Bid Advance
will accrue at the rate or rates provided in the Credit Agreement. Prior to the
Maturity Date for such Competitive Bid Advance, accrued interest on the
outstanding principal balance of this Note shall be due and payable on such
dates as set forth in the Credit Agreement and on the Maturity Date for such
Competitive Bid Advance. After the Maturity Date for such Competitive Bid
Advance, interest shall be due and payable as accrued and without demand.
Interest will be calculated on the basis that an entire year's interest is
earned in 360 days.
Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Note, in no event shall the
interest payable hereon, whether before or after maturity, exceed the maximum
amount of interest which, under applicable law, may be charged hereon to the
Maker, and this Note is expressly made subject to the provisions of the Credit
Agreement which more fully sets out the limitations on how interest accrues
hereon. In the event applicable law provides for a rate ceiling, that ceiling
shall be the indicated rate ceiling and shall be used in this Note for
calculating the maximum interest rate at which interest may be charged hereon
and for all other purposes. The term "applicable law" as used in this Note
shall mean the laws of the state in which
the principal office of the Bank or any holder is located, or the laws of the
United States, whichever laws allow the greater interest, as such laws now exist
or may be changed or amended or come into effect in the future.

On or before December 14, 2000, BINDLEY WESTERN INDUSTRIES, INC., an
Indiana corporation (the "Maker"), promises to pay to the order of THE
HUNTINGTON NATIONAL BANK (the "Bank") the principal sum of Ten Million and
No/100 Dollars ($15,000,000.00) or so much of the unpaid principal amount of
each Advance represented by this Note as may be disbursed by the Bank under the
terms of the Credit Agreement described below and remaining outstanding and
unpaid, and to pay interest on the unpaid principal balance of each Advance
outstanding from time to time as provided in this Note.
This Note evidences indebtedness (the "Revolving Credit") incurred or to be

the Bank under that certain First Amendment to Third Amended and Restated Credit
Agreement dated as of the date of this Note, among the Maker, the Bank, the
other banks party thereto, and Bank One, Indiana, NA, as Agent (as from time to
time amended, supplemented, replaced or otherwise modified, the "Credit
Agreement"). The principal amount of the Revolving Credit outstanding from time
to time shall be determined by reference to the books and records of the Bank on
which all Advances under the Revolving Credit and all payments by the Maker on
account of the Revolving Credit shall be recorded. Such books and records shall
be deemed prima facie to be correct as to such matters.
----- -----
The terms "Advance," "Maturity Date," and "Banking Day" are used in this

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Note, in no event shall the
interest payable hereon, whether before or after maturity, exceed the maximum
amount of interest which, under applicable law, may be charged hereon to the
Maker, and this Note is expressly made subject to the provisions of the Credit
Agreement which more fully sets out the limitations on how interest accrues
hereon. In the event applicable law provides for a rate ceiling, that ceiling
shall be the indicated rate ceiling and shall be used in this Note for
calculating the maximum interest rate at which interest may be charged hereon
and for all other purposes. The term "applicable law" as used in this Note shall
mean the laws of the state in which the principal office of the Bank or any
holder is located, or the laws of the United States, whichever laws allow the
greater interest, as such laws now exist or may be changed or amended or come
into effect in the future.
Exhibit 4-A
The entire outstanding principal balance of this Note shall be due and
payable, together with accrued interest, on the respective Maturity Date for
each such Advance. Reference is made to the Credit Agreement which provides for
acceleration of the maturity of all Advances evidenced by this Note upon the
happening of Events of Default as defined therein. All payments made by the
Maker hereunder shall be made for the account of the Bank at the office of Bank
One, Indiana, NA, 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, X.X. Xxx 0000, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx
00000-0000.
All payments on account of this Note shall be applied first to expenses of
collection, next to interest which is due and payable, and only after
satisfaction of all such expenses and interest, to principal.
The Maker and any endorsers severally waive demand, presentment for payment
and notice of nonpayment of this Note, and each of them consents to any renewals
or extensions of the time of payment of this Note without notice.
All amounts payable under the terms of this Note shall be payable with
expenses of collection, including attorneys' fees, and without relief from
valuation and appraisement laws.
This Note may be prepaid only upon the conditions and at such times as
provided in the Credit Agreement.
This Note is made under and will be governed by the laws of the State of
