 MCKESSON TECHNOLOGIES INC. 

DEFERRED COMPENSATION ADMINISTRATION PLAN 

Effective March 1, 2017 
  

	A.	 PURPOSE 



1. This Plan was established by McKesson Technologies Inc., to be effective March 1, 2017. This Plan is intended to enhance the
Company’s ability to attract and retain executive personnel. 
 2. This Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of
Section 409A of the Code. 
 3. Capitalized terms used in this Plan shall have the meaning set forth in Section K of this Plan. 

 

	B.	 ERISA PLAN 



This Plan is an unfunded deferred compensation program intended primarily for a select group of management or highly compensated employees of the Company. This
Plan, therefore, is covered by Title I of ERISA except that it is exempt from Parts 2, 3 and 4 of Title I of ERISA. 
  

	C.	 PARTICIPATION 



1. Eligibility to Participate. The Administrator may, at his or her discretion, and at any time, and from time to time, select
Eligible Executives who may elect to participate in this Plan. Selection of Eligible Executives may be evidenced by the terms of the executive’s employment contract with the Company, or by inclusion among the persons or classes of persons
specified by the Administrator. 
 The Administrator may, at his or her discretion, and at any time, and from time to time, designate
additional Eligible Executives and/or provide that executives previously designated are no longer Eligible Executives. If the Administrator determines that an executive is no longer an Eligible Executive, he or she shall remain a Participant in this
Plan until all amounts credited to his or her Account prior to such determination are paid out under the terms of this Plan (or until death, if earlier); provided that such executive may not elect to defer compensation in the Plan Year(s) after the
Administrator determines that the executive is no longer an Eligible Executive, until the Plan Year in which the Administrator re-designates him or her as an Eligible Executive. 

2. Election to Participate. An Eligible Executive may become a Participant in this Plan by electing to defer compensation,
or the Company crediting a Discretionary Contribution to an Account on behalf of an Eligible Executive, in accordance with the terms of this Plan. An election to defer compensation shall be in writing and shall be made at the time and in the form
specified by the Administrator. On electing to defer compensation (or by accepting a Discretionary Contribution credited by the Company to an Account on behalf of an Eligible Executive) under this Plan, the Eligible Executive shall be deemed to
accept all of the terms and conditions of this Plan. All elections to defer compensation under this Plan shall be made pursuant to an election executed and filed with the Administrator before the compensation so deferred is earned. 












 (a) Annual Election. Subject to the provisions of Sections C.2(b) and C.2(c)
of this Plan, an election to defer compensation must be made and become irrevocable at the time that the Administrator prescribes, but in no event later than the last day of the Year preceding the Year in which the compensation being deferred is
earned. 
 (b) Initial Election. A newly Eligible Executive may be permitted by the Administrator to elect to participate in
this Plan by submitting an election to defer compensation in a form and by a time as the Company prescribes; provided that such election is made and becomes irrevocable not later than 30 days following the date such newly Eligible Executive or
Eligible Director first becomes eligible to participate in this Plan and provided further that such election to defer compensation applies only to compensation earned after the date the deferral election becomes irrevocable or at such later time
that the Administrator prescribes. In compliance with this Section C.2(b), only a prorated portion of an Eligible Executive’s bonus (other than a bonus that is performance-based compensation as defined in Section C.2(c) of this Plan) may be
deferred if the Eligible Executive’s initial deferral election is made after the performance period applicable to the bonus has begun. 

(c) Election to Defer Performance-Based Compensation. To the extent that compensation paid under an Incentive Plan is
“performance-based compensation” as defined in Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(e), an election to defer compensation which the Administrator determines is “performance-based” within
the meaning of Section 409A of the Code, may be made not later than six months prior to the end of the applicable performance period or such earlier time as the Administrator may prescribe; provided, however, that such election shall be made
prior to the date that such performance-based compensation is substantially certain to be paid or readily ascertainable, whichever is applicable. 

(d) Election to Defer Other Compensation. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may permit other types of compensation to be
deferred under this Plan; provided, however, the terms and conditions of such deferrals shall be included in the applicable deferral election form and in accordance with Section 409A of the Code and the regulations promulgated and guidance
issued thereunder. 
 (e) Cancellation of Elections. The Administrator shall, in his or her sole discretion, cancel the
Participant’s deferral election at any time that the Administrator determines that such Participant has suffered an Unforeseeable Emergency, or pursuant to Treasury Regulation section 1.401(k)-1(d)(3) if
the Participant receives a hardship distribution under the 401(k) Plan, and the discontinuance of deferrals under this Plan shall remain in effect for the remainder of the current Plan Year. The Participant’s election shall neither resume, nor
shall the Participant be permitted to make a new deferral election, under this Plan for six months after the cancellation of his or her election, or such longer time as the Administrator determines in his or her discretion. 

  
 2 













 3. Discretionary Contributions by the Company. The Compensation Committee
shall have the sole discretion to determine an amount credited to a Participant’s Account as a “Discretionary Contribution.” A Discretionary Contribution may be subject to such terms or conditions, including but not limited to
vesting, as the Compensation Committee may specify in its discretion at the time the Discretionary Contribution is credited to a Participant’s Account. Except with respect to the Company’s executive officers, the Compensation Committee may
delegate its authority under this Section C.3 to the Administrator. 
 4. Notification of the Participants. The Administrator
shall annually notify each Eligible Executive and each Eligible Director that he or she may participate in this Plan for the next Year. 
 5.
Relation to Other Plans. 
 (a) Participation in Other Plans. An Eligible Executive may participate in this Plan
and may also participate in any other benefit plan of the Company in effect from time to time for which he or she is eligible, unless the other plan otherwise excludes participation on the basis of eligibility for, or participation in, this Plan. No
compensation may be deferred under this Plan which has been deferred under any other plan of the Company and the Administrator may modify or render invalid a Participant’s election prior to such election becoming irrevocable to accommodate
deferrals made under other plan(s). Deferrals under this Plan may result in a reduction of benefits payable under other benefit programs, including the Social Security Act and the 401(k) Plan. 

(b) Automatic Deferral. The Company shall credit a matching contribution to each Eligible Executive’s Account in an amount
equal to the Matching Employer Contribution percentage that would have been credited to the Eligible Executive’s 401(k) Plan account as if five percent (5%) of the Eligible Executive’s base salary deferrals and annual bonus award deferrals
to the DCAP had been made under the 401(k) Plan. For purposes of determining such matching contribution, other compensation deferrals to the DCAP, such as housing deferrals, sign-on and retention bonus
deferrals and Incentive Plan award deferrals other than payments under the annual bonus plan, are disregarded. 
  

	D.	 AMOUNTS OF DEFERRAL 



1. Minimum Deferral. The minimum amount that an Eligible Executive may defer under this Plan for any Year is $5,000 of base
salary, or $5,000 of any annual Incentive Plan award(s), or $5,000 of any long-term Incentive Plan award. 
 2. Maximum
Deferral. The maximum amount of compensation which an Eligible Executive may defer under this Plan for any Year is (i) 75% of the amount of such Eligible Executive’s base salary for such Year, and (ii) 90% of any annual bonus award
and/or any other Incentive Plan award determined to be eligible to be deferred under this Plan and payable to him or her in such Year. Additionally, the Administrator may change the maximum amount (expressed as a percentage limit) of base salary
that Eligible Executives as a group may defer under this Plan for any Year. Notwithstanding these limits, deferrals may be reduced by the Company as permitted under Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-3(j)(4).


  
 3 














	E.	 PAYMENT OF DEFERRED COMPENSATION 



1. Accounts and Investment Options. Compensation deferred by a Participant and any vested Discretionary Contributions under this
Plan shall be credited to a separate bookkeeping account for such Participant (the “Account”). (Sub-Accounts may be established for each Year for which the Participant elects to defer compensation.)
The Administrator shall select the Investment Options to be made available to the Participants for the deemed investment of their Accounts under this Plan. The Administrator may change, discontinue, or add to the Investment Options made available
under this Plan at any time in its sole discretion. A Participant must select the Investment Options for his or her Account in the Participant’s deferral election form and may make changes to his or her selections in accordance with procedures
established by the Administrator. Each Account shall be adjusted for earnings or losses based on the performance of the Investment Options selected, with earnings and losses computed on each Valuation Date. The amount paid to a Participant shall be
determined as of the Valuation Date immediately preceding the applicable payment date. Accounts are not actually invested in the Investment Options available under this Plan and the Participants do not have any real or beneficial ownership in any
Investment Option. A Participant’s Account is solely a device for the measurement and determination of the amounts to be paid to the Participant pursuant to this Plan and shall not constitute or be treated as a trust fund of any kind. 

2. Length of Deferral. An Eligible Executive shall elect in writing, and file with the Administrator, at the same time as such
Eligible Executive makes any election to defer compensation, the period of deferral with respect to such election, subject to the minimum required period of deferral and the maximum permissible period of deferral. The minimum required period of
deferral is five years after the end of the Year for which compensation is deferred. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the five-year minimum deferral period shall not apply to payments made as a result of death, Disability, Retirement, Separation from
Service, a Change in Control or Unforeseeable Emergency. Payment must commence no later than the end of the maximum period of deferral, which is the January following the year in which the Participant reaches age 72; provided, however, no payment
shall be paid or commence which will cause an impermissible acceleration of such payment under Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-(3)(j). 

3. Election of Form and Time of Payment. At the same time as any election to defer compensation, a Participant shall elect in
writing, and file with the Administrator, the form and time of payment of benefits under this Plan from the following: 
 (a) Form of
Payment. 
 (i) Payment of the amounts credited to the Participant’s Account in a single sum. 

(ii) Payment of amounts credited to the Participant’s Account in any specified number of approximately equal annual
installments (not to exceed 10). For purposes of this Plan, installment payments shall be treated as a single distribution under Section 409A of the Code. 

  
 4 













 (b) Time of Payment. 

(i) A lump sum paid, or first installment commencing, in the earlier of the first January or July that is at least six months
following, and in the year after, the Year that the Participant’s Retirement, Disability or death occurs. 
 (ii) A lump
sum paid, or first installment commencing, in January of the year designated by the Participant; provided, however, the Participant shall elect a payment date, or payment commence date, which is no later than the end of the Maximum Period of
Deferral and if the Participant elects a distribution date which is subsequent to the Maximum Period of Deferral, the election as to the time of distribution shall be deemed void immediately prior to the time such election is irrevocable and
distributions shall be made under Section E.3(b)(i) of this Plan. 
 (iii) A lump sum paid, or first installment commencing,
in two or more Januarys designated by the Participant following the Year that the Participant’s Retirement, Disability or death occurs. 
 The
Participant may elect a different time and/or form of distribution for Retirement, Disability or death. 
 (c) Discretionary
Contributions. If the Compensation Committee designates a Participant as eligible to receive a Discretionary Contribution, then such Participant may elect, in accordance with Section E.3(a) and E.3(b) of this Plan the time and form of
payment with respect to such Discretionary Contribution prior to the first day of the Year in which the earlier of (i) the Discretionary Contribution is first credited (whether vested or unvested), or (ii) the Discretionary Contribution is
earned. If a Participant does not or may not make an election with respect to the time and form of payment of a Discretionary Contribution, then such Discretionary Contribution shall be distributed in the same time and form that he or she elected
with respect to the Participant’s compensation deferrals under this Plan for the year in which the Discretionary Contribution was first credited (whether vested or unvested) to the Participant’s Account. In the absence of an applicable
election, the Discretionary Contribution shall be distributed in accordance with Section E.5 of this Plan. 
 4. Modification of
Elections. Once such an election has been made, the Eligible Executive or Eligible Director may modify the time and/or form of distributions made under this Plan, provided that such alteration: 

(a) is made at least one year prior to the earliest date the Participant could have received distribution of the amounts credited to his or her
Account under the earlier election; 
 (b) does not take effect for at least one year after it is made; and 

(c) does not provide for the receipt of such amounts earlier than five years from the originally scheduled distribution date. 

  
 5 













 A change to the time and form of a distribution may be modified or revoked until 12 months prior to the time
a distribution is scheduled to be made, at which time such change shall become irrevocable. The last valid election accepted by the Administrator shall govern the payout; provided, however, if a modification under this Section E.4 is determined
immediately prior to such modification becoming irrevocable to cause a payment date to be, or payment commence date begin, after later than the end of the Maximum Period of Deferral, such modification shall be deemed to be revoked immediately prior
to the time such modification become irrevocable and distributions shall be made as if the Participant had not modified his or her election. 

5. Default Form of Distribution. If no valid election is made under Section E.3 of this Plan, then payment of the amount credited
to the Participant’s Account shall be made in a single sum to be paid in the earlier of the first January or July that is at least six months following, and in the year after, the Year in which the earliest of the Participant’s Retirement,
Disability or death occurs. 
 6. Payments on Separation from Service. If a Participant Separates from Service for any reason
other than Retirement, Disability or death, then, notwithstanding the election made by the Participant pursuant to Section E.3 of this Plan, the entire undistributed amount credited to his or her Account shall be paid in the form of a lump sum in
the earlier of the first January or July that is at least six months following, and in the year after, the date the Participant Separates from Service. 

7. Delayed Distribution to Specified Employees. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section E to the contrary, a
distribution scheduled to be made upon Separation from Service to a Participant who is identified as a Specified Employee as of the date he or she Separates from Service shall be delayed until the seventh month following the Participant’s
Separation from Service. Any payment that otherwise would have been made pursuant to this Section E during such six-month period following the Participant’s Separation from Service, shall be made in the
seventh month following the month in which the Participant’s Separation from Service occurs. The identification of a Participant as a Specified Employee shall be made by the Administrator in his or her sole discretion in accordance with Section
K of this Plan and Sections 416(i) and 409A of the Code. 
 8. Payments on Death. Payments of the Participant’s Account
pursuant to such Participant’s death shall be paid to his or her Beneficiary if such Participant has not yet received or begun receiving a distribution under this Plan. If, however, a Participant is
in-pay status at the time of death, distribution of the Account shall continue to be distributed to the Beneficiary as such Participant elected to receive such distribution. The Beneficiary shall have to right
to elect a different time or form of payment of distributions made under this Plan. 
 9. Deminimis Cashout. Notwithstanding
the Participant’s election, the Administrator in its sole discretion may distribute an Account to a Participant or a Beneficiary in a single payment if the value of the Account, and any other plan or arrangement with respect to which deferrals
of compensation are treated as having been deferred under a single nonqualified deferred compensation plan under Treasury Regulation section 1.409A-1(c)(2), is less than the limit under
Section 402(g)(1)(B) of the Code. 

  
 6 













 10. Designation of Beneficiary. A Participant may designate any person(s) or
any entity as his or her Beneficiary. Designation shall be in writing and shall become effective only when filed with the Administrator. Such filing must occur before the Participant’s death. A Participant may change the Beneficiary, from time
to time, by filing a new written designation with the Administrator. If the Participant fails to effectively designate a Beneficiary in accordance with the Administrator’s procedures or the person designated by the Participant is not living at
the time the distribution is to be made, then the Participant’s Beneficiary shall be the Participant’s surviving spouse, if any, or, if there is no surviving spouse, the Participant’s surviving children, if any, in equal shares, or if
there are no surviving children, the Participant’s estate. 
 11. Payments Due to an Unforeseeable Emergency. The
Administrator may, in his or her sole discretion and in accordance with Section 409A of the Code direct payment to a Participant of all or of any portion of the Participant’s Account balance, if necessary, notwithstanding an election under
Section E.3 of this Plan, at any time that the Administrator determines that such Participant has suffered an Unforeseeable Emergency. 
 12.
Prohibition on Acceleration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan to the contrary, no distribution will be made from this Plan that would constitute an impermissible acceleration of payment as defined in
Section 409A(a)(3) of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder. 
  

	F.	 SOURCE OF PAYMENT 



Amounts paid under this Plan shall be paid from the general funds of the Company, and each Participant and his or her Beneficiaries shall be no
more than unsecured general creditors of the Company with no special or prior right to any assets of the Company for payment of any obligations hereunder. Nothing contained in this Plan shall be deemed to create a trust of any kind for the benefit
of any Participant or Beneficiary, or create any fiduciary relationship between the Company and any Participant or Beneficiary with respect to any assets of the Company. The Company may, but is not obligated to, set aside funds in a rabbi trust for
the purpose of meeting its obligations under this Plan; provided that any funds set aside shall continue for all purposes to be part of the general assets of the Company and shall be available to its general creditors in the event of its bankruptcy
or insolvency. 
  

	G.	 MISCELLANEOUS 



1. Withholding. Each Participant and Beneficiary shall make appropriate arrangements with the Company for the satisfaction of any
federal, state or local income tax withholding requirements and Social Security or other employment tax requirements applicable to the payment of benefits under this Plan. If no other arrangements are made, the Company may provide, at its
discretion, for such withholding and tax payments as may be required. 
 2. No Assignment. 

(a) Other than as provided in Section G.2(b) of this Plan, the benefits provided under this Plan may not be alienated, assigned, transferred,
pledged or hypothecated by any person, at any time or to any person whatsoever. These benefits shall be exempt from the claims of creditors or other claimants and from all orders, decrees, levies, garnishments or executions to the fullest extent
allowed by law. 

  
 7 













 (b) If a court of competent jurisdiction determines pursuant to a judgment, order or
approval of a marital settlement agreement that all or any portion of the benefits payable hereunder to a Participant constitute community property of the Participant and his or her spouse or former spouse (hereafter, the “Alternate
Payee”) or property which is otherwise subject to division by the Participant and the Alternate Payee, a division of such property shall not constitute a violation of Section G.2(a) of this Plan, and any portion of such property may be paid or
set aside for payment to the Alternate Payee. The preceding sentence of this Section G.2(b), however, shall not create any additional rights and privileges for the Alternate Payee (or the Participant) not already provided under this Plan; in this
regard, the Administrator shall have the right to refuse to recognize any judgment, order or approval of a martial settlement agreement that provides for any additional rights and privileges not already provided under this Plan, including without
limitation, with respect to form and time of payment. 
 3. Applicable Law and Severability. This Plan hereby created shall be
construed, administered and governed in all respects in accordance with ERISA and the laws of the State of California to the extent that the latter are not preempted by ERISA. If any provision of this instrument shall be held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions hereunder shall continue to be effective. 
 4. No Right to
Continued Employment. Neither the establishment or maintenance of this Plan nor the crediting of any amount to any Participant’s Account, nor the designation of an executive as an Eligible Executive, shall confer upon any individual any
right to be continued as an employee of an Employer or shall affect the right of an Employer to terminate any executive’s employment or change any terms of any executive’s employment at any time. 

 

	H.	 ADMINISTRATION OF THIS PLAN 



1. In General. The Administrator of this Plan shall be the Senior Vice President —Total Rewards, of the Company. If the
Administrator is a Participant, any discretionary action taken as Administrator which directly affects him or her as a Participant shall be specifically approved by the Compensation Committee. The Administrator shall have the authority and
responsibility to interpret this Plan, to adopt such rules and regulations for carrying out this Plan as it may deem necessary or appropriate, to exercise discretion to make any and all other determinations which it determines to be necessary or
advisable for the administration of this Plan, and to reconcile any inconsistency in, correct any defect in and/or supply any omission in this Plan and any election notice or agreement relating to this Plan. Decisions of the Administrator shall be
final and binding on all parties who have or claim any interest in this Plan. 
 2. Elections and Notices. All elections and

adversely affect the rights of any Participant or Beneficiary to any benefit previously earned under this Plan. 
 2.
