McKESSON SETS NOVEMBER 19, 1994 AS RECORD DATE
FOR DISTRIBUTION OF SHARES
SAN FRANCISCO, Thursday, November 10, 1994 -- McKesson Corp.
reported today that Saturday, November 19 has been fixed as the
record date for the distribution of the new McKesson Corp. shares
to be issued as the result of the acquisition by Eli Lilly and
Company of PCS Health Systems, Inc. from McKesson.
The fixing of the record date follows notification from the
Securities and Exchange Commission that McKesson's Form 10
information statement was declared effective yesterday. The
information statement will be mailed to shareholders today.
Distribution of new McKesson shares and the closing of Lilly's
tender offer are expected to occur on November 21, the next
business day following the record date. Payment of the
distribution of new McKesson shares and the closing of the tender
offer are contingent upon, among other things, the satisfaction or
waiver of the conditions of the Lilly tender offer.
Under terms of the agreement with Lilly, McKesson shareholders
will receive $76 in cash and one share in the new McKesson Corp.
for each share they currently hold. In addition, McKesson will
receive a capital contribution of $600 million in cash from Lilly,
putting the total value of the transaction at $4 billion.
The McKesson board has recommended that shareholders tender
their shares pursuant to Lilly's tender offer.
