AMENDED AND RESTATED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION
OF
MEDCO HEALTH SOLUTIONS, INC.
OF
MEDCO HEALTH SOLUTIONS, INC.
Adopted in accordance with Sections 242 and 245 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware
Medco Health Solutions, Inc. (the Corporation), a corporation organized and existing
under, and by virtue of, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the DGCL),
does hereby certify as follows:
1. The Corporation was originally formed as a limited liability company by the filing of a
certificate of formation under the name Mergerco Delaware No. 1, L.L.C. with the Secretary of
State of the State of Delaware (the Secretary of State) on August 26, 1996. The name of
the Corporation was changed to Merck-Medco Managed Care, L.L.C. pursuant to a merger effective
upon the filing of a certificate of merger with the Secretary of State on December 27, 1996. The
Corporation converted from a limited liability company to a corporation effective upon the filing
of a certificate of conversion with the Secretary of State on May 21, 2002. In connection with this
conversion, a certificate of incorporation for the Corporation was filed with the Secretary of
State under the name MedcoHealth Solutions, Inc. on May 21, 2002. The present name of the
Corporation is Medco Health Solutions, Inc., as changed pursuant to a filing of an Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation with the Secretary of State on June 07, 2002. The Second
Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, which was filed with the
Secretary of State on July 31, 2003, was duly amended on May 25, 2007. The Third Amended and
Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation was filed with the Secretary of State on
May 22, 2008. The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation was filed
with the Secretary of State on May 12, 2010.
2. This Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, dated as of
May 24, 2011, was, in accordance with Sections 242 and 245 of the DGCL, (a) duly proposed by
resolutions adopted and declared advisable by the Board of Directors of the Corporation (the
Board of Directors), (b) approved by its stockholders at its annual meeting of
stockholders and (c) duly executed by an authorized officer of the Corporation pursuant to Section
103 of the DGCL.
3. This Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation restates,
integrates and further amends the provisions of the Corporations Certificate of Incorporation, as
heretofore amended, corrected or supplemented, and, upon filing with the Secretary of State in
accordance with Section 103, shall supersede the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation,
as heretofore amended and restated, corrected or supplemented, and shall, as it may thereafter be
amended in accordance with its terms and applicable law, be the Certificate of Incorporation of the
Corporation.
4. Pursuant to Section 103(d) of the DGCL, this Amended and Restated Certificate of
Incorporation shall become effective upon filing with the Secretary of State.
5. The text of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation is hereby amended and

Designation).
FIFTH. The Board of Directors is expressly authorized to adopt, amend or repeal any bylaws
of the Corporation by resolutions duly adopted by a majority of the directors then in office, but
the stockholders entitled to vote may adopt additional bylaws and may amend or repeal any bylaw
whether or not adopted by them, at a meeting duly called for that purpose, by the affirmative vote

Except as otherwise provided pursuant to the provisions of the Certificate of
Incorporation of the Corporation (including any Preferred Stock Designation), newly created
directorships resulting from any increase in the number of directors, and any vacancies on the
Board of Directors (resulting from death, resignation, retirement, disqualification, removal, or

such special meeting shall be called for a date not less than 90 nor more than 100 calendar days
after the first date on which unrevoked valid requests for such special meeting satisfying the

stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except to the extent
that such exemption from liability or limitation thereof is not permitted under the DGCL as

action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of a
director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the
DGCL, as so amended.
3
