Ladies and Gentlemen:
Pursuant to Rule 477 under
the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities Act),
Express Scripts, Inc. (the Company) hereby
requests the withdrawal of the Companys Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File no. 333-140001)

In accordance with Rule 457(p) under the Securities Act, the Company
requests that all fees paid to the Commission in connection with the filing
of the Registration Statement be credited for future use.
