(the &#8220;Company&#8221;) announced that Jeffrey W. Henderson, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, intends to retire from the Company in August 2015 (the "Retirement Date").  The Company is launching a process to select a successor for Mr. Henderson's role.  If the Company selects a successor chief financial officer prior to the Retirement Date, Mr. Henderson will cease to serve as Chief Financial Officer at that time, but will remain an employee of the Company through the Retirement Date.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">(e)</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;text-align:left;text-indent:48px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:10pt;">To provide for a smooth transition in connection with Mr. Henderson's retirement, the Company has entered into a letter agreement with him (the &#8220;Retirement Letter&#8221;).  The Retirement Letter provides for an annual salary of $800,000 (effective in August 2014) and confirms his eligibility for a fiscal 2015 annual cash incentive award with a target of 100% of salary (the same as in fiscal 2014).  It also provides that in lieu of being eligible for fiscal 2015 long-term incentive grants, Mr. Henderson will receive a grant of restricted share units on August 15, 2014, the expected date of the Company's annual equity grant, with a grant value of $1,750,000 and a one-year vesting period.  The Retirement Letter also provides that if the Company terminates Mr. Henderson's employment without cause before the Retirement Date, (i) he will continue to receive his salary through the Retirement Date, (ii) he will be eligible for fiscal 2014 and 2015 annual incentive awards, and (iii) his long-term incentive awards that are scheduled to vest in August 2014 and 2015 will continue to vest in accordance with their terms.  Pursuant to the Retirement Letter, Mr.&#160;Henderson also has entered into a Confidentiality and Business Protection Agreement with the Company that includes two-year post-Retirement Date non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions.  The Retirement Letter and the Confidentiality and Business Protection Agreement are filed with this report as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and this description is qualified by reference to those agreements. </font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:10pt;font-weight:bold;">Item&#160;9.01.&#160;&#160;&#160;&#160;Financial Statements and Exhibits.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;padding-bottom:16px;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:10pt;">(d)&#160; </font><font style="font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:10pt;font-style:italic;">Exhibits</font><font style="font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:10pt;">.</font></div><div style="line-height:120%;font-size:10pt;"><div style="padding-left:0px;text-indent:0px;line-height:normal;padding-top:10px;"><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:10pt;width:97.8515625%;border-collapse:collapse;text-align:left;"><tr><td colspan="4"></td></tr><tr><td width="16%"></td><td width="1%"></td><td width="2%"></td><td width="81%"></td></tr><tr><td style="vertical-align:top;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;"><div style="text-align:right;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:10pt;">10.1</font></div></td><td style="vertical-align:bottom;"><div style="text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;"><br></font></div></td><td style="vertical-align:bottom;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;"><div style="overflow:hidden;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:inherit;font-size:10pt;">&#160;</font></div></td><td style="vertical-align:top;padding-left:2px;padding-top:2px;padding-bottom:2px;padding-right:2px;"><div style="text-align:left;font-size:10pt;"><font style="font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:10pt;">Retirement Letter Agreement, dated June </font><font style="font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:10pt;">10</font><font style="font-family:Arial Narrow;font-size:10pt;">, 2014, between Cardinal Health, Inc. and Jeffrey W.

  (b)
  On June 11, 2014, Cardinal Health, Inc. (the "Company") announced that Jeffrey W. Henderson, the Company's Chief Financial Officer, intends to retire from the Company in August 2015 (the "Retirement Date").  The Company is launching a process to select a successor for Mr. Henderson's role.  If the Company selects a successor chief financial officer prior to the Retirement Date, Mr. Henderson will cease to serve as Chief Financial Officer at that time, but will remain an employee of the Company through the Retirement Date.
  (e)
  To provide for a smooth transition in connection with Mr. Henderson's retirement, the Company has entered into a letter agreement with him (the "Retirement Letter").  The Retirement Letter provides for an annual salary of $800,000 (effective in August 2014) and confirms his eligibility for a fiscal 2015 annual cash incentive award with a target of 100% of salary (the same as in fiscal 2014).  It also provides that in lieu of being eligible for fiscal 2015 long-term incentive grants, Mr. Henderson will receive a grant of restricted share units on August 15, 2014, the expected date of the Company's annual equity grant, with a grant value of $1,750,000 and a one-year vesting period.  The Retirement Letter also provides that if the Company terminates Mr. Henderson's employment without cause before the Retirement Date, (i) he will continue to receive his salary through the Retirement Date, (ii) he will be eligible for fiscal 2014 and 2015 annual incentive awards, and (iii) his long-term incentive awards that are scheduled to vest in August 2014 and 2015 will continue to vest in accordance with their terms.  Pursuant to the Retirement Letter, Mr. Henderson also has entered into a Confidentiality and Business Protection Agreement with the Company that includes two-year post-Retirement Date non-competition and non-solicitation restrictions.  The Retirement Letter and the Confidentiality and Business Protection Agreement are filed with this report as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, and this description is qualified by reference to those agreements.
