Transition Distribution Activities. (a) Upon the terms and subject to and in consideration of the conditions set forth in this Agreement, during the Term, Parent shall provide the Transitional Distribution Activities for SpinCo and its Subsidiaries. Parent shall provide the Transition Distribution Activities as an independent contractor. (b) To facilitate the Transition Distribution Activities, Parent (or the relevant Parent Subsidiary in a Country) will procure Supported Products in accordance with Section 3.1. (c) Parent will provide the Transition Distribution Activities in a manner consistent with its internal practices for processing similar orders or releases and selling and shipping Supported Products for the SpinCo Business in the Country(ies) as applicable at the time the relevant Transition Distribution Activities are provided. For clarity, the Transition Distribution Activities with respect to the Ivory Products will be provided in the Ivory Countries only. (d) The Transition Distribution Activities do not include Parent actively seeking to secure or otherwise receive orders for Supported Products directly from Customers in the Country(ies). SpinCo is responsible for securing and receiving orders for Supported Products and such sales representatives will engage directly with Customers. However, Customers may in certain cases directly place orders for Supported Products in Parent’s order intake systems or Parent may receive orders for Supported Products from Customers together with orders for Parent’s products under SpinCo Shared Commercial Contracts and Parent will process such orders or relevant parts of orders, as applicable, as SpinCo orders in its order intake system in a manner consistent with the practices of the SpinCo Business at the Effective Date. If a product on such SpinCo order is backorder, SpinCo shall decide on the further processing of the order (accept, reject, put on hold).
