2.6 Late Payment. All payments must be received in ABDC’s account during normal business hours on or before the date due. Drivers and other ABDC employees cannot accept cash. Price of Goods reflects a prompt payment discount.

Customer and each Account will abide by ABDC’s standard credit terms as amended from time

Upon request, Customer will furnish ABDC complete annual and quarterly financial statements and other evidence of its financial condition necessary to establish, in ABDC’s opinion, Customer and each Account’s ability to perform its obligations. If ABDC reasonably believes Customer or any Account’s ability to make payments may be materially impaired, ABDC may from time to time amend Customer’s payment terms, require past due amounts to be paid and/or require posting of adequate security or such other documents as ABDC may require. Pending receipt of requested items, ABDC may withhold delivery of Products and providing Services; place Customer on a C.O.D. basis if ABDC has not received payment when due after giving notice by 10:00 a.m. and giving Customer until 2:00 p.m. the same day for ABDC to receive payment; and/or require Customer to pay part or all of any past due amount as a condition to continued service.

(c) Failure to perform any other material obligation of this Agreement or any other agreement now or hereafter entered into between the parties and such failure continues for thirty (30) days after it receives notice of such breach from the non-breaching party; provided, however, if the other party has commenced to cure such breach within such thirty (30) days, but is not reasonably able to complete it within such thirty (30) days, such party will have a reasonable time to complete its cure if it diligently pursues the cure until completion. “For cause” does not include Customer’s receiving a more favorable offer from an ABDC competitor.

6. INDEMNIFICATION

Each party (“Indemnifying Party”) will indemnify and defend the other, its employees and representatives (“Indemnified Party”) against all claims and damages (including expenses and attorneys’ fees) (“Claim”) to the extent arising out of Indemnifying Party’s obligations under this Agreement. Failure to give prompt written notice of a Claim will not relieve Indemnifying Party of liability except to the extent caused by such failure. Indemnifying Party will defend a Claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnified Party and Indemnified Party will cooperate fully in such defense.

7. CUSTOMER’S INSURANCE

Customer will maintain sufficient insurance to cover all unpaid inventory in its possession. Customer will maintain professional liability insurance with limits of no less than $* per incident and $* aggregate.

Customer may not make, or allow others to make, copies except one backup copy. Customer must include all proprietary notices in permitted copies. Customer may not modify Software or create derivative works and may not translate, reverse engineer, disassemble or decompile Software.

8.2 Limited Warranty. ABDC warrants that (i) Software will perform substantially in accordance with its documentation if operated as directed; (ii) hardware provided by ABDC and diskettes, CD-ROMs or other media on which the Software is provided will be free from defects under normal use; and (iii) Software will not infringe the rights of any third party. ABDC DISCLAIMS ALL OTHER WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING THOSE OF MERCHANTABILITY, AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, FOR HARDWARE AND SOFTWARE, AND ACCURACY OF ANY DATA. ALL DATA IS PROVIDED “AS IS.” DUE TO THE NATURE OF SOFTWARE, HARDWARE AND DATA, ERRORS AND INTERRUPTIONS MAY OCCUR AND CUSTOMER HAS ALL RISKS FOR QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE. No oral or written information provided by ABDC, its employees or other representatives will create any warranty.

8.3 Remedy. ABDC’s liability and Customer’s exclusive remedy for breach of warranties in Paragraph 8.2 will be, at ABDC’s option, to (i) repair or replace Software or hardware so it performs substantially in accordance with its documentation and is non-infringing; (ii) advise Customer how to achieve substantially the same functionality using different procedures, or (iii) replace defective media that is returned.

9. MISCELLANEOUS

9.1 Force Majeure. If ABDC’s performance is prevented, delayed or otherwise adversely affected by labor disputes, fire, terrorism, acts of God or any other cause beyond its control, including unavailability of Products, transportation, materials or fuel, delays by suppliers, loss of facilities, internet, telecommunication or electrical system failures or interruptions, voluntary foregoing a right in order to comply with or accommodate government orders or requests, compliance with any law or any other cause beyond its control (“Force Majeure”), (i) ABDC may reduce or eliminate Products without liability or obligation during the Force Majeure period and (ii) to the extent ABDC reduces or eliminates Products, Customer shall not be required to maintain ABDC as the Primary Vendor of all requirements of Customer’s Facilities for Products during the Force Majeure period. In addition, if Force Majeure affects ABDC’s cost of operations and Customer elects to utilize ABDC as a vendor for Products to Customer’s Facilities during the Force Majeure period (provided that Customer shall not be required to maintain ABDC as a Primary Vendor to such extent),

ABDC may, at its discretion, add to the price of Products all of its increased costs, including taxes, so long as Force Majeure affects such costs.

9.2 Assignment. (a) All covenants, promises and agreements in this Agreement inure to the benefit of and are binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of each party. In no event will an agreement between a successor to or permitted assign of Customer and any third party negate or diminish in any way such successor’s or assign’s obligations under this Agreement.

(b) Neither party may assign its rights or delegate its duties under this Agreement, including by asset sale or upon a Change-in-Control, without the prior written consent of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, it being understood that ABDC shall not be considered to be acting unreasonably in the case of such a sale or Change-in-Control of PMC if the requirements of Paragraph 9.2(c) are not satisfied or if the proposed Assignee of PMC following such sale or Change-in-Control does not have sufficient financial capability to satisfy the obligations of this Agreement, applying reasonable industry credit standards. In the event that ABDC does not consent to any assignment (or deemed assignment) or delegation occurring upon a PMC Change-In-Control that nonetheless is consummated, the Agreement shall nevertheless remain in effect for a reasonable period of time of not less than ninety (90) days following the PMC Change-in-Control to permit the Assignee of PMC to transition to a different drug purchasing contract without in any manner limiting ABDC’s remedies or rights against PMC or PMC’s Assignee pursuant to the Agreement. Each party hereby consents to the other party assigning part or all of its obligations to any affiliate; provided, however, any assignment will not relieve a party of its performance obligations under this Agreement.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event of such an assignment, delegation or Change-in-Control by or of PMC, or a sale or transfer of ownership or control of any Facility (subject to the Facility Sale exception set forth below), PMC shall provide ABDC with prior written notice thereof and shall cause the surviving entity, successor-in-interest or transferee, as the case may be (the “Assignee”), to either (1) agree to be bound by the terms of this Agreement from and after the date of such event or (2) enter into a replacement agreement to this Agreement with ABDC on such terms as are reasonably acceptable to ABDC and the Assignee; provided, however, that in the event of a PMC Change-in-Control, an Assignee consented to by ABDC will be permitted to terminate this Agreement as follows: (x) if there is more than one (1) year remaining until the end of the then current Term, the approved Assignee may terminate this Agreement without cause for any or no reason at any time on or after the one (1) year anniversary of the Change-in-Control upon at least sixty (60) days prior written notice to ABDC; or (y) if there is less than one (1) year remaining until the end of the then current Term, the approved Assignee may terminate this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.B. of this Agreement and the termination shall be effective on the last day of the then current Term. In addition, Customer may sell a Facility, or multiple Facilities in one or more transactions (“Facility Sale”), and only be required to provide ABDC written notice of such transaction(s) (without causing the Assignee to satisfy the additional requirements set forth above), so long as the collective Net Purchase volume of all such Facilities sold, taking into account all prior Facility Sales, represents less than 10% of Customer’s annual Net Purchase volume as of the Effective Date, which the parties benchmark at $1,200,000,000.00. In the event of a Facility Sale that is attributable towards the 10% threshold noted above, unless otherwise agreed to by the parties, this Agreement shall terminate with respect to any Facility which is the subject of the Facility Sale.

(d) With respect to PMC, “Change-in-Control” shall mean the occurrence of one or more of the following:

(i) the acquisition by any person (or related group of persons), whether by tender or exchange offer made directly to PMC’s stockholders, open market purchases or any other transaction or series of transactions possessing sufficient voting power in the aggregate to elect a majority of PMC’s board of directors (“Board”);

(ii) a merger or consolidation in which PMC is not the surviving entity, except for a transaction in which securities representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of the surviving entity are held by persons who held common stock immediately prior to such merger or consolidation and those members of the existing Board constitute a majority of the Board immediately after such merger or consolidation;


PMC – ABDC Amended and Restated PVA 1/1/2011		12

(iii) any reverse merger in which PMC is the surviving entity but in which either securities representing more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of PMC’s outstanding securities are transferred to holders different from those who held such securities immediately prior to such merger or those members of the existing Board do not constitute a majority of the Board immediately after such merger; or

(iv) the sale, transfer or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of PMC.

(e) With respect to PCA or Chem Rx or a Facility, “Change-in-Control” means the sale or transfer of 51% or more of the assets or voting equity of the respective entity or Facility to a person not wholly owned by PMC or to an affiliate of PMC of which PMC does not have at least a 51% controlling interest.

(f) Each party acknowledges that money damages would not be a sufficient remedy for any breach of restrictions under this Paragraph 9.2 and, if there is a breach or threatened breach, the other party will be entitled to specific performance and injunctive or other equitable relief in addition to any other available remedies at law or in equity.

9.3 EEO Requirements. ABDC warrants it does not and will not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, creed, color, national origin, religion, gender, sexual preference, veteran status, handicap or as otherwise may be prohibited by law and will meet affirmative action obligations as are imposed by law.

9.4 Miscellaneous. The successful party in any legal action, including in a Bankruptcy proceeding, may recover all costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. Pennsylvania law will govern this Agreement without reference to conflict of laws provisions. Any waiver or delay in enforcing this Agreement will not deprive a party of the right to act at another time or due to another breach. All provisions are severable. In the event of a conflict between a prior document between the parties and this Agreement, this Agreement will control. This Agreement supersedes prior oral or written representations by the parties that relate to its subject matter. Captions are intended for convenience of reference only. The parties may not modify this Agreement, or its Exhibits, other than by a subsequent writing signed by each party. This Agreement will be interpreted as if written jointly by the parties. The parties are independent contractors.

9.5 Excluded Providers. The Office of Inspector General (“OIG”) Special Advisory Bulletin on the Effect of Exclusions on Participation in Federal Health Care Programs clarifies OIG’s sanction authority to impose civil money penalties and deny reimbursement under federal health care programs for products or services provided by an excluded entity. Specifically, it provides that “items or equipment sold by an excluded manufacturer or supplier used in the care or treatment of beneficiaries and reimbursed, directly or indirectly, by a federal health care program violate the OIG’s exclusion.” ABDC certifies that neither it, nor any of its key personnel, are listed by a federal agency as being debarred, excluded, or otherwise ineligible for federal program participation as of the Effective Date and ABDC will immediately notify Customer in writing if any of these events occurs.

9.6 HIPAA. This Agreement and certain data that may be exchanged under this Agreement may be subject to (i) the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) and ABDC may be a “business associate” of Customer for purposes of HIPAA and the rules and regulations promulgated under HIPAA and (ii) the Confidentiality of Medical Information Act (California Civil Code Sections 56.10 et seq.) (the “Medical Information Act”). The parties will amend this Agreement, if and to the extent required, to comply with HIPAA and the Medical Information Act, including provisions relating to written contracts among business associates.
