WHEREAS, Medco is in the business of providing PBM Services to
corporations, health maintenance organizations, unions, insurance carriers,
government employee plans and others;
WHEREAS, Merck is a pharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery,
development, manufacturing and marketing of pharmaceutical products;
WHEREAS, the parties desire to amend the Agreement to provide that if, for
any Calendar Quarter beginning on and after October 1, 2003, (a) the Medco Share
Weight for one of the specified Merck Products set forth on Schedule 6 to Annex
B attached hereto for the applicable Calendar Quarter has increased by 30% or
more from the 4Q 2001 Medco Share Weight (as defined herein) for such specified
Merck Product and (b) the Medco Market Share equals or exceeds the National
Market Share for such specified Merck Product, the MAS Premium Percentage shall
be calculated using the 4Q 2001 Medco Share Weight for that specified Merck
Product (rather than the Medco Share Weight for the applicable Calendar Quarter)
(with proportionate adjustments made to the Medco Share Weight used for each
other Merck Product) provided that calculating the MAS Premium Percentage in
this manner will result in a higher MAS Premium Percentage than would otherwise
result; and
WHEREAS, this Amendment No. 3 shall be deemed to be effective as of October
