accredited investor within the meaning of Rule 501(a) promulgated under the
Securities Act. McKesson understands that the Warrants have not been registered
under the Securities Act and may be resold only if registered pursuant to the
provisions of the Securities Act or if an exemption from registration is
available, except under circumstances where neither such registration nor such
an exemption is required by law, and that Company is not required to register
the Warrants.
SECTION 6.2 SOURCE OF FUNDS. McKesson represents that the source of
funds to be used by it to pay the purchase price of the Warrants does not
include assets of any employee benefit plan. As used in this SECTION 6.2, the
term "employee benefit plan" shall have the meaning assigned to such term in
Section 3 of ERISA.
SECTION 7. TRANSFER; REGISTRATION RIGHTS.
SECTION 7.1 RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFERABILITY. The Warrants and the
Restricted Shares shall not be transferable except upon the conditions
hereinafter specified, which conditions are intended to ensure compliance with
the provisions of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.
1. TRANSFER OF RIGHTS. Subject to SECTION 7.10, the
rights granted to McKesson under this SECTION 7 may be transferred to any person
or entity acquiring directly or indirectly any shares of Warrants or Restricted
Shares, as the case may be, from McKesson.
2. TRANSFEREES. Any transferee to whom rights under
SECTION 7 are transferred shall, as a condition to such transfer, agree to be
bound by the obligations imposed by SECTION 7 to the same extent as such
transferee's transferor was bound hereunder.
3. SUBSEQUENT TRANSFEREES. A transferee to whom
rights are transferred pursuant to this Section 7 may only transfer such rights
to another person or entity as provided in (a) and (b) of this Section 7.
SECTION 7.2 NOTICE OF PROPOSED TRANSFER; REGISTRATION NOT REQUIRED. The
Holder of each Warrant or any Restricted Shares, by acceptance thereof, agrees
to give prior written notice to Company of such Holder's intention to transfer
such Warrant (or the Underlying Shares relating thereto) or such Restricted
Shares (or, in each case, any portion thereof), describing briefly the manner
and circumstances of the proposed transfer; provided, however, that no such
notice shall be required for a transfer under a registration requested in
accordance with the provisions of Section 7.3 or in connection with a transfer
made in accordance with the exemptions afforded by Rule 144 or Rule 144A of the
General Rules and Regulations of the Commission (or any other available
exemption from the registration requirements of the
5.
Securities Act) and exempt from all applicable registration requirements under
state securities laws.
SECTION 7.3 REQUIRED REGISTRATION (a) On (and including) or after the
twenty-fifth day after the First Anniversary, the Holders of at least 30% of the
aggregate then outstanding number of Underlying Shares and Restricted Shares
may, upon written request, require Company to effect the registration (a "DEMAND
REGISTRATION") or qualification under applicable federal or state securities
laws of such Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares. Upon receipt of such
written request, Company shall promptly give written notice to all Holders of
Warrants and Restricted Shares of a proposed registration or qualification, and
shall, subject to the conditions of SECTION 7.4, as expeditiously as possible,
use its best efforts to effect any such registration or qualification of:
(i) such Underlying Shares or such Restricted Shares, or any
combination thereof; or
(ii) all other Underlying Shares and Restricted Shares of
Holders of Warrants or Restricted Shares which shall have advised
Company in writing within 30 days after the giving of such written
notice by Company of their desire to have their Underlying Shares or
Restricted Shares registered or qualified or exempted,
with, or notification to or approval of, any governmental authority under any
federal or state securities laws, or listing with any securities exchange, which
may be required to permit the sale or other disposition of any such Underlying
Shares or Restricted Shares which the Holders thereof propose to make, and
Company will keep effective such registration, qualification, exemption,
notification or approval for such period as may be necessary to effect such
sales or dispositions up to a maximum period of nine months after initial
effectiveness.
If the managing underwriter engaged in connection with an underwritten
public offering of such Underlying Shares or Restricted Shares proposed for
registration under this SECTION 7.3 determines in good faith and for valid
business reasons that registration of such Underlying Shares or Restricted
Shares would have an adverse effect on the marketability or the price of such
offering (a "CUTBACK DETERMINATION"), such managing underwriter shall give
prompt written notice of such Cutback Determination to such requesting Holder or
Holders. In such event, Company, upon written notice to the Holders of such
Underlying Shares or Restricted Shares, shall have the right to limit such
Underlying Shares or such Restricted Shares to be registered, if any, to the
largest number which would not result in such adverse effect on marketability or
the price of such offering (such limitation being applied to each such
requesting Holder of Underlying Shares or Restricted Shares pro rata in respect
of the number of shares subject to such request). No Securities of any Person,
other than Securities of a Holder or Securities subject to a Permitted
Incidental Registration, may be included in any registration pursuant to this
SECTION 7.3 without the written consent of the Holders of at least a majority of
the Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares participating in such offering
if, with the inclusion of such Securities, the Holders are not able to include
in the registration at least 80% of the Underlying Shares and/or Restricted
Shares that they initially requested to be included.
6.
(b) REGISTRATION PROCEDURES. In connection with Company's obligations
with respect to a Demand Registration pursuant to SECTION 7.3(a) hereof, Company
shall use its best efforts to effect or cause the registration or qualification
of the Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares under the Securities Act and
applicable state securities laws to permit the sale of such Underlying Shares
and/or Restricted Shares by the Holders thereof in accordance with the intended
method of distribution thereof (if such distribution is possible), and pursuant
thereto, Company shall:
(i) prepare and, within 60 days after receipt of the request
pursuant to SECTION 7.3(a) hereof, file with the Commission a
registration statement or registration statements with respect to a
Demand Registration on any form which may be utilized by Company and
which shall permit the disposition of the Underlying Shares and/or
Restricted Shares in accordance with the intended method or methods
thereof, and use its best efforts to cause such registration statement
or registration statements to become effective as expeditiously as
possible, but in any event not later than 120 days after receipt of
such request;
(ii) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and
supplements to a registration statement or statements hereunder and the

respects with the provisions of the Securities Act and applicable state
securities laws with respect to the disposition of all of the
Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares to be included in such
registration statement during such applicable period in accordance with
the intended methods of disposition by the Holders thereof set forth in
the registration statement;

counsel to such Holders and such underwriters, to conduct a reasonable
investigation within the meaning of the Securities Act;
(iv) promptly notify the selling Holders of Underlying Shares
and/or Restricted Shares to be included in a registration statement
hereunder and the managing underwriters, if any, of the Securities
being sold and (if requested by any such Person) confirm such advice in
writing, (1) when such registration statement, the prospectus or any
prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed, and,
with respect to such registration statement or any post-effective

required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements

price being paid therefor by such underwriters and with respect to any
other terms of the underwritten (or best efforts underwritten) offering
of the Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares to be sold in such
offering, except to the extent that Company is advised in a written

reasonably likely to violate the federal securities laws; and make all
required filings of such prospectus supplement or post-effective

(x) use its best efforts in cooperation with the Holders of
the Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares to be included in a

required to register or effect any registration or qualification of Underlying
Shares and/or Restricted Shares pursuant to SECTION 7.3:
(a) more than one (1) time, PROVIDED that no registration
shall be included as a required registration pursuant to this SECTION
7.4(a) until such time, if any, as the registration statement filed in
connection therewith shall be declared effective and remain effective
until such time as all Shares (and Underlying Shares, as applicable)
have been sold under such registration statement or may be freely sold
in the public market without registration in reliance upon Rule 144(k)
and unless the Holders requesting such registration are able to include
in such registration all of the Underlying Shares and/or Restricted
Shares that they initially requested to be included;
(b) unless there shall have elapsed after a previous
registration of Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares pursuant to
SECTION 7.3 or a registration of other shares in which the Holders of
the Underlying Shares or Restricted Shares could participate pursuant
to SECTION 7.5 a period of 90 days or such longer period, not to exceed
180 days, as the managing underwriter in any such registration shall
have determined to be necessary or desirable in light of then current
market conditions; and
(c) unless the request therefor is to register not less than
30% of the aggregate number of Underlying Shares and Restricted Shares
not theretofore registered pursuant to Section 7.3 or Section 7.5.
SECTION 7.5 INCIDENTAL REGISTRATIONS. Company agrees that at any time
it proposes to register any of its Securities in a primary or secondary offering
of such Securities under the Securities Act (otherwise than pursuant to SECTION
7.3) on Form S-1 or any other form of registration statement (other than Form
S-4 or Form S-8) then available for the registration under
11.
the Securities Act of Securities of Company, it will give timely written notice
to all Holders of outstanding Warrants and Restricted Shares of its intention so
to do and upon the written request of the Holder of any such Warrants or
Restricted Shares, given within 30 days after receipt of any such notice from
Company, Company will in each instance, subject to the next paragraph of this
SECTION 7.5, use its best efforts to cause all Underlying Shares or Restricted
Shares requested to be included in such registration by any such requesting
Holder to be registered under the Securities Act and registered or qualified
under any state securities laws, all to the extent necessary to permit the sale
or other disposition thereof in the manner stated in such request by the
prospective seller of the Securities so registered. Nothing in this SECTION 7.5
shall be deemed to require Company to proceed with any registration of its
Securities after giving the notice herein provided. Registration pursuant to
this SECTION 7.5 shall be in accordance with, and subject to the provisions of,
the "Registration Procedures" set forth in SECTION 7.3(b).
If the managing underwriter engaged by Company in connection with an
underwritten public offering of Securities proposed for registration as
described in this Section 7.5 determines in good faith and for valid business
reasons that registration of the Underlying Shares or Restricted Shares proposed
for inclusion in such registration would, when combined with the other
Securities to be included in such registration, have an adverse effect on the
marketability or the price of such offering (an "Incidental Cutback
Determination"), such managing underwriter shall give prompt written notice of
such Incidental Cutback Determination to such requesting Holder or Holders. In
such event Company, upon written notice to the Holders of such Underlying Shares
or Restricted Shares, shall have the right to limit such Underlying Shares or
such Restricted Shares and such other Securities to be registered, if any, to
the largest number which would not result in such adverse effect on
marketability or the price of such offering (such limitation being applied to
each such requesting Holder of Underlying Shares or Restricted Shares and holder
of such other Securities pro rata in respect of the number of shares subject to
such request).
SECTION 7.6 UNDERWRITTEN OFFERINGS. If the intended method of
distributing the Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares to be included in a
registration pursuant to Section 7.3 or Section 7.5 is an underwritten public
offering, then Company shall select the managing underwriter(s) for such
offering, subject to the written consent of the Holders of at least 51% of the
Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares to be included in such registration,
which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. Each Holder of said Underlying
Shares and/or Restricted Shares shall enter into an underwriting agreement,
custody agreement and power of attorney in such forms as the managing
underwriter(s) and Company shall reasonably request, provided that such
agreements and documents are in customary form and substance or reasonably
acceptable to the Holders of a majority of said Underlying Shares and/or
Restricted Shares. Each Holder of the Warrants or Restricted Shares shall
refrain from selling Warrants or Restricted Shares for a period not to exceed 90
days from the date of the public offering of any Underlying Shares or Restricted
Shares which are not included in registration pursuant to Section 7.3 or Section
7.5.
SECTION 7.7 EXPENSES; RELIANCE. Company will pay all expenses,
including, without limitation, registration fees, qualification fees, legal
expenses (including the reasonable fees and expenses of one counsel to the
Holders of Warrants or Restricted Shares whose Underlying Shares or Restricted
Shares are being registered), printing expenses and the costs of special
12.
audits, if any, and "cold comfort" letters, expenses of underwriters (excluding
underwriting discounts and commissions, but including the reasonable fees and
expenses of any necessary special experts) in connection with the registration
and qualification, notification or exemption requested by any Holder or Holders
of Warrants or Restricted Shares pursuant to Section 7.3 or Section 7.5. The
Holders of the Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares shall be responsible
for applicable transfer taxes, brokerage commissions and their share of the
underwriting discounts and commissions.
SECTION 7.8 INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTIO (a) In connection with any
registration, qualification, notification, or exemption of Securities under
SECTION 7.3 or SECTION 7.5, Company hereby indemnifies each Holder of the
Warrants, Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares, including each Person, if
any, who controls each such Holder within the meaning of Section 15 of the
Securities Act, against all losses, claims, damages and liabilities (including,
without limitation, any liability of any such Holder or Person to any
underwriter participating in any such registration, qualification, notification
or exemption) caused by any untrue, or alleged untrue, statement of a material
fact contained in any registration statement or prospectus or notification or
offering circular (and as amended or supplemented if Company shall have
furnished any amendments or supplements thereto) or any preliminary prospectus
or caused by any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact
required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not
misleading, except insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities are
caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission based upon information furnished in writing to Company by such
Holder expressly for use therein, and Company and each officer, director and
controlling Person of Company shall be indemnified by each Holder of the
Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares for all such losses, claims, damages
and liabilities caused by any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or
omission or alleged omission based upon information furnished in writing to
Company by each such Holder thereof expressly for any such use. The foregoing is
subject to the condition that, insofar as it relates to any untrue statement,
alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission made in any preliminary
prospectus but eliminated or remedied in the final prospectus (or in any
amendment or supplement thereto), the indemnity of Company shall not inure to
the benefit of any underwriter from whom the Person asserting any loss, claim or
damage purchased the Underlying Shares and/or Restricted Shares which were the
subject thereof (or to the benefit of any Person who controls such underwriter),
if a copy of the final prospectus (or such amendment or supplement thereto) was
not sent or given to such Person at or prior to the time such action is required
by the Securities Act.
(b) Promptly upon receipt by a party indemnified under this SECTION 7.8
of notice of the commencement of any action against such indemnified party in
respect of which indemnity or reimbursement may be sought against any
indemnifying party under this SECTION 7.8, such indemnified party shall notify
the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement of such action, but the
failure so to notify the indemnifying party shall not relieve it of any
liability which it may have to any indemnified party (i) under this SECTION 7.8
except to the extent that the indemnifying party is materially prejudiced by
such failure to notify, or (ii) otherwise than under this SECTION 7.8. In case
notice of commencement of any such action shall be given to the indemnifying
party as above provided, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate
in and, to the extent it may wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party
similarly notified, to assume the defense of such action at its own expense,
with counsel chosen by it and satisfactory
13.
to such indemnified party. The indemnified party shall have the right to employ
separate counsel in any such action and participate in the defense thereof, and
the fees and expenses of such counsel (other than reasonable costs of
investigation) shall be paid by the indemnifying party unless the indemnified
party agrees to pay the same. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any
settlement entered into without its consent. In addition to its other
obligations under this SECTION 7.8, each indemnifying party agrees that, as an
interim measure during the pendency of any claim, action, investigation, inquiry
or other proceeding arising out of or based upon any statement or omission, or
any alleged statement or omission, described in this SECTION 7.8, it will
reimburse each indemnified party on a monthly basis for all reasonable legal and
other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any such
claim, action, investigation, inquiry or other proceeding, notwithstanding the
absence of a judicial determination as to the propriety and enforceability of
the indemnifying party's obligation to reimburse the indemnified party or
parties for such expenses and the possibility that such payments might later be
held to have been improper by a court of competent jurisdiction.
(c) If the indemnification provided for in this SECTION 7.8 from the
indemnifying party is unavailable to an indemnified party hereunder in respect
of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which such
indemnified party would be otherwise entitled under SECTION 7.8(a), then the
indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result
of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses in such proportion as
is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and
indemnified parties in connection with the actions which resulted in such
losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses, as well as any other relevant
equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and
indemnified parties shall be determined by reference to, among other things,
whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement
of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, has
been made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or
indemnified parties, and the parties' relative intent, knowledge, access to
information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action. The amount paid
or payable by a party as a result of the losses, claims, damages, liabilities
and expenses referred to above shall be deemed to include any legal or other
fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any
investigation or proceeding. In no event shall any Holder of Warrants,
Underlying Shares or Restricted Shares be required to contribute an amount
greater than the dollar amount of the proceeds received by such Person with
respect to the sale of any Warrants, Underlying Shares or Restricted Shares.
The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if
contribution pursuant to this SECTION 7.8(c) were determined by PRO RATA
allocation or by any other method of allocation which does not take account of
the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph.
No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section
11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any Person
who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.
(d) The indemnification and contribution provided for in this SECTION
7.8 shall survive, with respect to a Holder of Underlying Shares of Restricted
Shares, the transfer of Underlying Shares or Restricted Shares by such Holder
and with respect to a Holder of
14.
Underlying Shares or Restricted Shares, shall remain in full force and effect
regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of any indemnified party.
(e) In connection with any registration pursuant to Section 7.3 or
Section 7.5, Company agrees, and each Holder of Warrants or Restricted Shares
(except for McKesson and any other than any such Holder which shall have
executed and delivered a counterpart of this Agreement) by acceptance of such
Warrants, or Restricted Shares, agrees that it will enter into an agreement
containing substantially the indemnification provisions of this Section 7.8.
SECTION 7.9 ADDITIONAL REGISTRATION RIGHTS. Company will not grant to
any Person at any time after the date hereof the right to request Company to
effect the registration or qualification or filing for exemption under
applicable federal or state securities laws of any Securities of Company, unless
the agreement or agreements providing for such rights specifically provide that
the holders of such rights may not participate in any registration requested
pursuant to Section 7.3 if such participation would violate the last sentence of
Section 7.3(a).
SECTION 7.10 RESTRICTIVE LEGENDS. Each Warrant initially issued and
each Warrant issued in exchange therefor shall, unless otherwise permitted by
the provisions of this SECTION 7.10, bear on the face thereof a legend reading

thereof a legend reading substantially as follows:
The shares represented by this certificate have not been
registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or
any state securities laws and may not be sold or transferred
in the absence of such registration unless such sale or
transfer is preceded by an opinion of counsel addressed to
HORIZON Pharmacies, Inc., that such sale or other transfer is
exempt from the registration requirements of said Securities
Act and any such state securities
15.
laws which may be applicable and are subject to of the terms
and provisions specified in that certain Amended and Restated
Warrant Purchase Agreement dated as of May 14, 1999, between
HORIZON Pharmacies, Inc., and McKesson HBOC, Inc.
In the event that a registration statement covering Underlying Shares
or Restricted Shares shall become effective under the Securities Act and under
any applicable state securities laws or in the event that Company shall receive
an opinion of its counsel (or, at Company's election, nationally recognized
independent counsel to any Holder) that, in the opinion of such counsel, such
legend is not, or is no longer, necessary or required (including, without
limitation, because of the availability of the exemptions afforded by Rule 144
or Rule 144A of the General Rules and Regulations of the Commission), Company
shall, or shall instruct its transfer agents and registrars to, remove such
legend from the Warrants and certificates evidencing Restricted Shares or issue
new Warrants and certificates without such legend in lieu thereof. Upon the
written request of the Holder or Holders of any Warrants or any Restricted
Shares, Company covenants and agrees forthwith to request its counsel to render
an opinion with respect to the matters covered by this Section 7.10 and any
legends set forth on the Warrants and Restricted Share certificates and to bear
all reasonable expenses in connection with any opinion of counsel contemplated
hereinabove.

Stock is listed on a national securities exchange at the time of exercise of a
Warrant, Company will, at its expense, also list on such exchange, upon exercise
of the Warrant, all shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to such Warrant.
SECTION 7.12 MISCELLANEOUS. Company shall comply with all issuer
reporting requirements set forth or referred to in Rule 144 or Rule 144A
promulgated under the Securities Act and will do all such other things as may be
reasonably necessary to permit the expeditious sale at any time of any Warrants,
Restricted Shares or Underlying Shares by the Holder thereof in accordance with
and to the extent permitted by said Rule 144 or Rule 144A, as the case may be,
or any other similar Rule or Rules promulgated by the Commission from time to
time.
SECTION 8. REDEMPTION OF WARRANTS.

redeem or call any Warrant or any Restricted Shares.

the mutilated Warrant, or in lieu of the lost, stolen or destroyed Warrant, upon
receipt of evidence satisfactory to Company of the loss, theft or destruction of
such Warrant, and upon receipt of indemnity satisfactory to Company (which, in
the case of McKesson, shall consist of its unsecured agreement to indemnify
Company for a loss in connection with such loss, theft or destruction of such
Warrant).
