BACKGROUND 


A. WBC is engaged in the business of providing distribution services with respect to various [***], skincare, dermatology, [***] and [***] products.


B. Supplier (directly or through its Affiliates) is engaged in the design, development, manufacture and/or supply of the products listed or described on Exhibit A attached hereto (the “Product” or “Products”). For purposes of this Agreement, an “Affiliate” of a person or entity means any other person or entity that directly or indirectly, through one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by, or is under common control with, such person or entity, with the term “control” (including the terms “controlled by” and “under common control with”) meaning the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of the person or entity, whether through the ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise.


C. Supplier wishes to engage WBC, and WBC wishes to be so engaged, to exclusively provide distribution services that include, without limitation, (i) integrated distribution services (including packing and shipping); (ii) customer service functions (including call center services); (iii) returns processing and reporting; (iv) customer credit, invoicing, and collection services; (v) accounts receivable and chargeback service; and (iv) data reporting (collectively, the “Services”) with respect to the Products to (x) physicians and other licensed practitioners and their related offices, clinics or other facilities, (y) distributors selling Products to such practitioners and facilities, and (z) pharmacies, in each case whether directly or online, within the United States of America and Puerto Rico (collectively, the “Physician-Dispensed Market”), on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements of the parties set forth below, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:


ARTICLE 1 APPOINTMENT

Pursuant to the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, in exchange for WBC’s willingness to invest in designing and building custom WBC Webpages (as defined below) for Supplier and providing dedicated project management resources in furtherance of the transactions contemplated hereby, and for the other consideration provided for herein, Supplier hereby appoints WBC as its exclusive provider of the Services with respect to the Products (including any new products or improvements, enhancements or redesigns of existing Product as provided in Section 2.11) in and to the Physician-Dispensed Market, and WBC hereby accepts such appointment. During the term of this Agreement, WBC will not and will agree not to enter into any agreement to provide substantially similar Services to [***] for goods or products that are competitive with any of the Products, without the express prior written consent of Supplier. As part of WBC’s exclusive appointment, from and after the Launch Date (as defined below), Supplier shall not, directly or indirectly through any Affiliate or third-party agents, representatives, distributors, or other entities (except WBC), sell or engage in the Services with respect to any Products to the Physician-Dispensed Market. WBC shall perform the Services (including, without limitation, all storage, handling, shipping and distribution) in accordance with generally accepted industry standards of operation and in conformity with all applicable laws.

 

 

 

1.2 Transition from Existing Distribution Channels; Customer Webpages. Promptly after the Launch Date (as defined below) hereof, the parties shall take all commercially reasonable steps to transition the distribution of Products to the Physician-Dispensed Market from Supplier’s existing distribution channels to WBC, culminating in Supplier ceasing to distribute Product to the Physician-Dispensed Market through any other channel. In furtherance of the foregoing, promptly after the execution of this Agreement, WBC will design and build, and provide a link or web portal to be included on Supplier’s website to, a website hosted and maintained by WBC and as further described on Exhibit B for purposes of Physician-Dispensed Market customer ordering and order fulfillment (the “WBC Webpages”). WBC retains all intellectual property and other rights in and with respect to the WBC Webpages. The parties shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to cause the launch of WBC assuming the distribution of Product to the Physician-Dispensed Market as contemplated hereby to occur on or before [October 31], 2018; provided that such launch shall not occur unless and until WBC [***] as provided in Section 4.2. The date such launch occurs is referred to herein as the “Launch Date.” WBC acknowledges that Valeant Pharmaceuticals North America LLC will provide transition services to Supplier during the term of this Agreement in support of its obligations hereunder, including but not limited to data receipt, order processing and certain permits, authorizations, licenses, certificates, approvals or similar requirements of or from any governmental authority in connection with the Services under this Agreement. Supplier agrees to transfer to WBC any existing toll-free telephone numbers that were established in connection with any prior distribution channels for the Product, and WBC agrees that any and all toll-free telephone numbers transferred to or established by WBC solely in connection with this Agreement will be transferred to Supplier following the termination of this Agreement for any reason.


1.3 Marketing Activities; Product Referrals. Supplier will use all commercially reasonable efforts to promote and market the sale and distribution of the Product to the Physician-Dispensed Market during the term of this Agreement. At a minimum, such efforts shall include continuing to perform such sales and marketing activities with respect to the Product for the Physician-Dispensed Market as conducted by Supplier prior to the Launch Date. WBC shall not be required to perform any marketing or sales activities with respect to the Product. Supplier shall include on its websites intended for customers or potential customers within the Physician-Dispensed Market a link, to be provided by WBC, that directs customers or potential customers of the Product in the Physician-Dispensed Market to the WBC Webpages. Supplier shall direct any customers or potential customers within the Physician-Dispensed Market who attempt to place Product orders with Supplier to WBC or the WBC Webpages.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, WBC shall not be required to open and inspect individual cases of Product. WBC may reject any Non-Conforming Shipment by giving notice to Supplier in writing within [***] after receipt thereof. Any Non-Conforming Shipment not so rejected shall be deemed to have been accepted by WBC.

2.9 Additional Services. If requested by Supplier, WBC shall affix “Tester,” “Sample,” or similar stickers to be provided by Supplier on designated Product distributed by WBC hereunder for a fee of [***] sticker; provided, however, that such stickering service shall not replace Supplier’s responsibility to provide all labeling and instructions on the Product required by law or regulation in accordance with Section 4.1. From time to time during the term of this Agreement, WBC may quote other services to be provided to Supplier in connection with the sale and distribution of Product to the Physician-Dispensed Market on such terms, conditions and specifications as may be agreed to by the parties.


2.10 Forecasting; Notice of Promotional Campaigns; Backorders.

2.11 Changes to Product Offering; Discontinued Product; New Products. Supplier shall provide WBC commercially reasonable prior written notice any proposed additions, deletions or changes to the Product to be distributed hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, Supplier shall provide WBC (i) at least three (3) months’ notice before discontinuing a Product (“Discontinued Product”), and (ii) at least 60 days’ notice before introducing to the Physician-Dispensed Market any new product, or any improvements, enhancements or redesigns of existing Product, or any replacement for a Discontinued Product (each, a “New Product”). Upon receipt of such notice with respect to a Discontinued Product, WBC may, in its sole discretion, cancel any outstanding orders with Supplier of the Discontinued Product.

3.3 Service Fee; Chargebacks. In consideration of its services provided hereunder, Supplier shall pay WBC a service fee (the “Service Fee”) equal to [***]% (the “Service Fee Percentage”) of the WAC, if any, charged by Supplier to WBC for all Product shipped to WBC by the Supplier for the Physician-Dispensed Market including any No Charge Shipment. In addition, Supplier shall reimburse WBC (a) the amount of the excess, if any, of (i) the WAC, if any, charged by Supplier to WBC of any Product shipped by WBC to the Physician-Dispensed Market (including any No-Charge Shipment) over (ii) the sales price actually charged by WBC for such Product to its customers (net of any rebates, discounts, price reductions, or other price concessions conferred upon such customers) (the “Applicable Net Sales Price”), but only to the extent the Applicable Net Sales Price charged by WBC was not less than the Applicable Proposed Pricing Terms, to the extent known by WBC (the “WAC Chargeback”), plus (b) the aggregate amount of fees and expenses incurred by WBC in connection with [***].


3.4 WBC Invoices. WBC shall invoice Supplier the Service Fee, with reasonable supporting detail, on a monthly basis within seven (7) business days following the end of each calendar month during which Product was shipped by WBC.

3.5 Adjustment to Service Fee Percentage. Supplier acknowledges that WBC entered into this Agreement, including with respect to the Service Fee Percentage agreed to herein, based on and in reliance on the assumption that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement will achieve metrics that, as a whole, will be materially consistent with or better than those set forth on Exhibit E (the “Transaction Assumptions”). Beginning on the date that is six (6) months after the Launch Date and at any time and from time to time thereafter (but not more frequently than once during any consecutive 12 month period), if WBC reasonably demonstrates that (a) actual results with respect to such metrics achieved during any applicable Review Period (as defined below) materially differ from the Transaction Assumptions, and (b) as a result of such difference, the earnings or profit margin achieved by WBC from its performance under this Agreement during such Review Period are materially less than the earnings or profit margin, as applicable, that WBC projected with respect to this Agreement at the time it entered into this Agreement, then WBC shall have the right to propose reasonable adjustments to the Service Fee Percentage as necessary to equitably account for such difference between actual results and the Transaction Assumptions (where “equitably account” means putting WBC in substantially the same position with respect to its earnings or profit margin, as applicable, from the date of the applicable Adjustment Notice (as defined below) through the remainder of the Term, assuming actual results will be consistent with the results achieved during the Review Period as opposed to the Transaction Assumptions). WBC shall exercise such right by giving written notice to Supplier (an “Adjustment Notice”), which notice shall state the Review Period to which it relates and shall set forth the proposed adjustments with reasonable supporting detail. If Supplier disagrees with the adjustment proposed by WBC in the Adjustment Notice, Supplier will so notify WBC within 60 days after its receipt thereof (an “Objection Notice”). If Supplier fails to deliver an Objection Notice before the expiration such 60-day period, the adjustment to the Services Fee Percentage proposed by WBC in the Adjustment Notice shall be deemed to have been accepted by Supplier. If the Supplier delivers the Objection Notice before the expiration of such 60-day period, WBC and the Supplier shall negotiate in good faith to resolve such objections within 30 days after WBC’s receipt of the Objection Notice (the “Resolution Period”). If Supplier and WBC fail to reach an agreement with respect to all of the matters set forth in the Objection Notice before expiration of the Resolution Period, then any issues remaining in dispute shall be submitted by the parties to an impartial, independent accounting firm who, acting as arbitrator, shall resolve the disputed issues and determine the applicable adjustment to the Service Fee Percentage, if any, which determination shall be final and binding on the parties. The fees and expenses of the accountant shall be borne by equally by WBC and Supplier. Any adjustment to the Service Fee Percentage pursuant to this Section 3.5 shall be effective as of the date of the applicable Adjustment Notice and shall apply for all periods thereafter during the Term until such time as it may be further adjusted pursuant to this Section 3.5. If WBC has already invoiced Supplier a Service Fee for any period to which the adjusted Service Fee Percentage applies, WBC shall invoice Supplier for the difference between the Service Fee previously invoiced and the Service Fee for such period as calculated using the adjusted Service Fee Percentage, which invoice shall be paid pursuant to, and shall otherwise be subject to, the provisions of Section 3.4. For purposes of this Section 3.5, “Review Period” means any period during the Term that (1) is not shorter than six (6) months, (2) is not longer than 12 months and (3) begins no earlier than 13 months prior to the date of the Adjustment Notice relating to such period. WBC’s determination of earnings and profit margin for purposes of this Section 3.5 shall be made in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied. No change from the date hereof in any accounting principles used by WBC in its determination of earnings and profit margin shall be the basis for an adjustment to the Service Fee Percentage pursuant to this Section 3.5

4.2 Licenses. Supplier has obtained and shall maintain all governmental approvals, consents, licenses, permits, authorizations, declarations, filings and registrations (collectively, “Licenses”) necessary under applicable law for its performance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including any Licenses required by the FDA and any pharmaceutical boards, as applicable. WBC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain, by no later than [***] (the “Licensure Date”), and thereafter shall maintain, all Licenses necessary under applicable law for its performance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including any Licenses required by the FDA and any pharmaceutical boards, as applicable; provided, however, that WBC shall not be required to obtain Licenses for all of its distribution centers by the Licensure Date in order to be compliant with this Section 4.2. If WBC does not substantially fulfill its obligations under this Section 4.2 with respect to obtaining applicable Licenses, Supplier shall have the right to terminate this Agreement prior to the Launch Date by giving notice of such termination to WBC, in which case this Agreement shall become void and have no effect, without any liability on the part of any party. For the purposes of this Section 4.2 “substantially fulfill” means that at least one of WBC’s distribution centers has obtained, by no later than the Licensure Date, all the necessary Licenses under applicable law for its performance of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, unless (a) the failure to obtain all such Licenses by such date is a result of delay from causes beyond the reasonable control of WBC and (b) WBC has proposed a commercially reasonable alternative to fulfill the terms and conditions of this Agreement until such time as such Licenses have been obtained.

Supplier represents and warrants that all Product, including Product packaging, advertising and labelling, will comply with all applicable laws, including all FTC laws and regulations, the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, as amended (the “FDCA”), the California Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (aka Proposition 65), and all regulations, rules, declarations, interpretations and orders issued thereunder.

Supplier will promptly take all necessary corrective action or conduct any recall or market withdrawal. WBC shall maintain records that identify the Products stored by WBC by lot number and shall fully cooperate in all commercially reasonable respects in effecting such recall or withdrawal. WBC will not be responsible for any costs associated with any recall or corrective action or withdrawal, except to the extent such recall or withdrawal is attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of WBC, or the knowing failure of WBC to comply with and adhere to applicable Requirements of the affected Product. WBC will have the right to notify its customers of such actions and advise them of the remedy to be provided by Supplier. Supplier will promptly notify WBC of all customer remedies by promptly providing instructions to WBC to provide to its customers for return of Product to Supplier for correction and/or modification. Supplier will be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred in affecting such a remedy including costs of notices, replacement and shipping, as applicable.


4.5 Importing. In the event any Product is manufactured by or for Supplier at any location outside the U.S., Supplier shall ensure that all such Product (a) are imported into the U.S. in compliance with all applicable laws, (b) meet all the requirements of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection and (c) if applicable, remain held intact and not distributed until the FDA has issued a “may proceed” notice or other substantially similar release.

At any time during the term of this Agreement, and for one (1) calendar year after the termination of this Agreement, upon not less than ten (10) business days’ prior written notice, Supplier may perform an audit of the foregoing records regarding transactions relating to the Services that took place during the 12-month period immediately preceding such notice at Supplier’s sole expense.

No auditor shall be allowed to perform an audit without first executing a confidentiality agreement reasonably acceptable to the parties. Any such audit shall be conducted within 30 days of the date WBC provides the necessary documentation to the auditor.

Supplier hereby grants to WBC a royalty-free, non-exclusive right in the Physician-Dispensed Market to use the Product Materials and Supplier’s trademarks (the “Trademarks”) during the term of this Agreement for the purposes of WBC providing the Services hereunder. Supplier warrants that Supplier has the right and authority to grant the rights set forth in this Section 5.1 and that no Product Materials or Trademarks infringe any rights of any third party. WBC shall not alter or make any addition to the labelling or packaging of the Product displaying the Trademarks without the prior written consent of Supplier (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). Each party shall promptly give notice in writing to the other if it becomes aware of: (a) any infringement or suspected infringement of the Trademarks or any other intellectual property rights relating to the Product; or (b) any claim that any Product or the manufacture, use, sale or other disposal of any Product, whether or not under the Trademarks, infringes the rights of any third party. Each party shall, at the request and expense of the other, provide any reasonable assistance to the other in connection with any action to be taken by the other party with respect to such infringement or suspected infringement (including the use of its name in, or being joined as a party to, proceedings), provided that that party is given such indemnity as it may reasonably require against any losses, costs and expenses it may incur as a result of, or in connection with, providing that assistance.

5.3 Confidential Information. During the term of this Agreement, each party (the “Receiving Party”) may be provided with, have access to, or otherwise learn confidential and proprietary information of the other party (the “Disclosing Party”) (including certain technical information and materials) that is of substantial value to the Disclosing Party, which is identified as confidential at the time of disclosure or which should reasonably be considered to be confidential to the Disclosing Party (“Confidential Information”). All Confidential Information remains the property of the Disclosing Party. The Receiving Party may disclose the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party only to its employees and contractors who need to know the Confidential Information for purposes of performing under this Agreement and who agree to be bound by the confidentiality obligations set forth herein. The Receiving Party will not use the Confidential Information without the Disclosing Party’s prior written consent except in performance under this Agreement. The Receiving Party will take measures to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information equivalent to those measures the Receiving Party uses to maintain the confidentiality of its own confidential information of like importance but in no event less than commercially reasonable measures. The Receiving Party will give prompt notice to the Disclosing Party of any unauthorized use or disclosure of the Confidential Information and agrees to assist the Disclosing Party in remedying such unauthorized use or disclosure. The confidentiality obligations of this Section 5.2 do not extend to information which: (i) becomes part of the public domain without the fault of the Receiving Party; (ii) is rightfully obtained by the Receiving Party from a third party with the right to transfer such information without any known obligation of confidentiality; (iii) is independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to or use of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, as evidenced by written records; or (iv) was lawfully in the possession of the Receiving Party at the time of disclosure, without restriction on disclosure, as evidenced by written records. In addition, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party as may be required by law, a court order, or a governmental agency with jurisdiction, provided that before making such a disclosure the Receiving Party first notifies the Disclosing Party in writing, if legally permissible, and cooperates with the Disclosing Party, at the Disclosing Party’s reasonable request and expense, in any lawful action to contest or limit the scope of such required disclosure. Upon termination or expiration of this Agreement, the Receiving Party will return to the Disclosing Party all tangible copies of Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in the Receiving Party’s possession or control and will erase from its computer systems all electronic copies thereof to the extent feasible.

6.1 Indemnification.


(a) Supplier shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless WBC, its Affiliates, and their officers, directors, employees and agents (each, a “WBC Indemnified Party”) from and against any claims, suits, demands, litigation, actions, lawsuits, investigations, judgments, penalties, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, fines, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) (collectively, “Losses”) brought, imposed, or alleged against or incurred by any WBC Indemnified Party arising from:


(i) any breach of this Agreement or violation of any applicable law by Supplier or any of its agents or representatives;


(i) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Supplier in connection with the manufacture, sourcing, packaging, shipment, or labelling of any Product or in connection with any documentation provided for or with any Product;


(ii) any Product Claim; and/or


(iii) any claims or allegations from any third party that any Product, or the sale, offer for sale or use thereof, constitutes or is alleged to constitute an infringement or violation of any patent, trademark, copyright, or other proprietary right.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Supplier’s indemnification obligations under this Section 6.1(a) shall not apply to any Losses to the extent resulting from the grossly negligent, wrongful or fraudulent act or omission or willful misconduct of WBC or any of its agents or representatives.


(b) WBC shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless Supplier, its Affiliates, and their officers, directors, employees and agents (each, a “Supplier Indemnified Party” and, together with the WBC Indemnified Parties, the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any Losses brought, imposed, or alleged against or incurred by any Supplier Indemnified Party arising from:


(i) any breach of this Agreement or violation of any applicable law by WBC or any of its agents or representatives; and/or


(ii) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of WBC in connection with its performance of the Services.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, WBC’s indemnification obligations under this Section 6.1(b) shall not apply to any Losses to the extent resulting from the grossly negligent, wrongful or fraudulent act or omission or willful misconduct of Supplier or any of its agents or representatives.


(c) The Indemnified Party shall promptly notify the party obligated to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Party”) of any claim for which the Indemnified Party seeks indemnification hereunder; provided, however, that no delay or failure on the part of the Indemnified Party in notifying the Indemnifying Party shall relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced thereby. If the claim for indemnity relates to a claim, action or allegation brought by a third party (a “Third-Party Claim”), the Indemnifying Party shall have the right to conduct the defense or settlement of such Third-Party Claim at the Indemnifying Party’s sole expense using counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party, so long as the Indemnifying Party and such counsel conducts such defense actively and in a reasonably diligent manner and the Defense Conditions (defined below) have been, and continue to be, met. The Indemnified Party shall cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in connection such defense. The party not conducting the defense shall nonetheless have the right to participate in such defense at its own expense. The Indemnified Party shall have the right to approve the settlement of any Third-Party Claim that imposes any liability or obligation other than the payment of money damages for which the Indemnifying Party has accepted responsibility and has the financial wherewithal to satisfy. For purposes of this clause (c), “Defense Conditions” mean all of the following: (i) there is not, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, a reasonable probability that the Third-Party Claim would adversely affect the business or goodwill of the Indemnified Party other than as a result of money damages and/or money payments (e.g., interfering with a business relationship); (ii) the Indemnifying Party has sufficient financial resources, in the reasonable judgment of the Indemnified Party, to satisfy the amount of any adverse monetary judgment that is reasonably likely to result; (iii) the Third-Party Claim does not include criminal charges; and (iv) the Indemnifying Party expressly agrees in writing to be fully responsible for all Losses relating to such Third-Party Claim, including any costs arising in connection with defending the claim.

To the extent commercially feasible, each party will notify the other at least 30 days prior to the cancellation or implementation of a material change in the foregoing policy coverages that would affect the other party’s interests. Upon request, each party will furnish to the other party as evidence of insurance a certificate of insurance.

Exhibit D - Customer Product Returns Policy


Customer QA Replacements

  WBC will triage all quality assurance related returns (defective, low fill, broken seal, visible contamination, twist and snap issue, etc.) to Supplier Customer Service
  Supplier Customer Service will document information received from the customer (lot, expiration date, quality issue).
  If required by Supplier Quality Assurance, Supplier Customer Service will provide a pre-paid shipping label to the customer to return the Product to Supplier. The Product goes directly for inspection or disposal to the Quality Assurance Department.
  If a replacement is required, the information will be e-mailed to WBC who is then authorized to re-ship the Product at no charge. WBC will use the case number as the purchase order for the Product re-shipment. WBC will bill Supplier under the No Charge Program - No Charge QA Replacements.
  In some instances, a Product credit will be authorized by Supplier Customer Service instead of a Product replacement. WBC will credit the customer’s account and bill Supplier for the Product cost.


Customer non-QA Replacements

  Supplier Customer Service will receive calls and emails from customers related to non-QA patient dissatisfaction returns seeking replacement Product.
  Twice monthly, Supplier Customer Service will provide a file to WBC with customer’s account number, shipping address, replacement Product, and quantity.
  WBC is authorized to ship the replacement Product, referencing the purchase order number on the file, and bill under the No Charge Program - No Charge Replacements.


Customer Returns

  WBC is responsible for processing customer returns and crediting the customer’s account without any pass through charges to Supplier for orders that are undeliverable or are returned due to carrier issues or other normal business processes inherent in WBC’s daily operations. This includes data entry errors by customer care and warehouse shipping errors.
  For any return outside of Product quality reasons or mis-shipments, customers can return Product within 30 days of date of original shipment date. WBC is responsible for processing returns and crediting the customer’s account. WBC will only bill Supplier for the Product cost if the Product cannot be restocked.
  No returns over 30 days unless approved by Supplier and may be subject to a restocking fee. Upon approval by Supplier, WBC is responsible for processing returns and crediting the customer’s account. WBC will only bill Supplier for the Product cost if the Product cannot be restocked.
  Any exceptions, including order errors by Supplier Sales Consultants, must be approved by Supplier.
