whereby Triax granted OMP the exclusive right to market and sell certain
concentrations of Tretinoin bearing the OMP brand in certain markets, subject to
the satisfaction of certain volume commitments; and
WHEREAS,
the Parties deem it to be in their mutual best interests to enter into this

NOW
THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms, conditions and mutual covenants
contained herein, the Parties hereto agree as follows:
1. PRODUCTS; PURCHASE
ORDERS
1.1 Products:
Specifications. Triax shall manufacture the following products on behalf
of OMP and sell such products to OMP: Tretinoin 20gram in 0.1%, 0.05% and 0.025%
cream concentrations and 15gram in 0.01% and 0.025% gel concentrations
(collectively, the "Products"). Triax
shall manufacture the Products according to the specifications described in
Exhibit A (the
"Specifications"),
which is hereby incorporated into this Agreement. At OMP’s request,
Triax shall also sell the 0.0375% and 0.075% Tretinoin cream concentrations as
soon as Triax’s abbreviated new drug applications (“ANDA”) for such
concentrations are approved by the Federal Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”), as well as any
other Tretinoin concentrations for which Triax receives ANDA approval from the
FDA in the future (collectively, the “Future
Products”). Upon ANDA approval for any such Future Product and
the Parties’ written agreement in accordance with Section 2.1 below as to the
prices to be paid to Triax for such Future Product, such Future Product shall be
included in the definition of “Products” for all purposes of this Agreement
unless otherwise indicated.
1
1.2 Purchase Orders.
Triax shall agree to manufacture, sell and deliver Products to OMP in accordance
with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. From time to time and pursuant
to Sections 1.4, 1.5,
and 1.6, OMP shall place purchase orders ("Purchase Order(s)")
with Triax for the manufacture, sale and delivery of specific quantities of
Products. This Agreement is not a Purchase Order. OMP shall have no obligation
to purchase any Products hereunder until OMP has placed a Purchase Order, and
then only for the quantity of the Products stated in such Purchase Orders and
delivered according to this Agreement. OMP shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to forecast Product demand and Triax shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to provide Product quantities forecasted by OMP as per Section 1.4 and Section 1.5, unless
(and to the extent) Triax notifies OMP of an inability to provide such
quantities due to circumstances outside of Triax's commercially reasonable
control. Such notification must be given within fifteen (15) days of receipt of
such forecast from OMP, and/or within forty-eight (48) hours of Triax becoming
aware of such circumstances.
1.3 Exclusivity. OMP
shall have exclusive rights to sell the Products in the physician-dispensed
channel in the United States (including all territories of the United States,
the “U.S.
Channel”), and on a non-exclusive basis outside the United States (to the
extent the applicable regulatory requirements are satisfied in each jurisdiction
where OMP desires to sell the Products) in every channel (the “International
Channel” and collectively with the U.S. Channel, the "Channel"); provided, however, that
notwithstanding the foregoing, OMP shall only maintain
exclusivity in the U.S. Channel if OMP places Purchase Orders for at least
100,000 tubes/units of Products (in any combination and from either Channel) in
each calendar year covered by the term of this Agreement; provided that such
minimum volumes shall be pro-rated for the remaining months of 2009 following
the Effective Date. If such minimum volumes are not maintained,
all other rights and obligations of this Agreement will continue on a
non-exclusive basis, beginning on January 1 of the calendar year following the
calendar year in which OMP did not
purchase the minimum Purchase Order volume.
1.4 Vendor Managed Inventory;
Purchase Orders. Triax will
ship Product in accordance with OMP’s Vendor Managed Inventory (the “VMI Program”) (as
such VMI Program is described in this Section 1.4) and
blanket purchase orders issued in accordance with this Agreement each, a
“Purchase Order.” Under the VMI Program, OMP will set a calendar
quarterly target for the inventory quantity required for the distribution
center(s) at the beginning of each quarter , and will notify Triax in writing of
such targeted quantity. This quantity is based on sales requirements,
safety stock, and cycle time, and will be subject to the forecasting, ordering
and lead time provisions set forth in Sections 1.5, 1.6 and
3.1 below. In addition, under the VMI Program, OMP will
provide a weekly report to Triax that includes the OMP part number, description,
blanket PO #, inventory quantity on hand, the maximum quarterly inventory
target, the minimum target for each month of the calendar quarter, and the
rolling three month quarterly forecast. The maximum target level of inventory
for the quarter must be at the OMP distribution center(s) by the first week of
the third month of the calendar quarter, provided that the OMP has submitted
corresponding Purchase Orders to Triax that comply with the Lead Time (as
defined in Section
3.1 below). Triax is responsible to use commercially reasonable efforts
to ship to meet those requirements. Without limiting OMP’s
obligations with respect to any Purchase Orders, OMP is
responsible for the purchase of OMP branded Product that equals each
target set by OMP four (4) month firm portion of forecast; forecast requirements
for non-OMP branded product will be set calendar
2
quarterly
with three (3) month firm portion. Adjustments are made by OMP to
each forecast based on sales requirements, safety stock, and cycle
time. Triax shall have the right to review and approve or not approve
each Purchase Order and shall communicate its decision within three (3) business
days of its receipt of such Purchase Order. Such approval rights
shall be exercised by Triax in good faith. If Triax approves
such Purchase Order, it shall confirm shipment dates to OMP in writing at the
time of its communication approval of such Purchase Order. As
warranted, OMP shall update its forecast on a monthly basis or as required by
Triax.
1.5 Twelve Month Rolling
Forecast. OMP
will provide Triax with a rolling twelve (12)-month forecast (the “Rolling Forecast”) of
OMP’s requirement of Products, and thereafter provide monthly updates to the
Rolling Forecast during the 1st week
of each month. A firm and binding order from OMP is based on each
quarterly forecasted volume for non-OMP branded Products and is based on each
four (4) months of forecasted volume for OMP branded Products (individually the
“firm
zone”). Each firm zone may not be changed by OMP or Triax
(unless the Parties mutually agree otherwise in writing), including through the
delivery of subsequent Rolling Forecasts. The Rolling Forecast sets forth OMP’s
anticipated demand for Products on a monthly basis. This forecast may
be used to help the manufacturer manage their production lines efficiently and
ensure availability of supply to OMP to achieve the appropriate quarter or four
(4) month end target. The Rolling Forecast within the firm zone may
increase but not decrease on a monthly basis depending on the actual
unit sales and adjustments. If the change is significant or not a
quantity that Triax can meet, OMP and Triax will use their commercially
reasonable best efforts to meet the requested changed
requirements. From time to time after the Effective Date, the Parties
will consider whether, in light of market demand, manufacturing capacity,
inventory levels and other pertinent factors, to revise the schedule for
delivery of forecasts and, if appropriate, the Parties shall negotiate in good
faith to revise such Rolling Forecast or any Purchase Orders(s). Triax shall
secure adequate supply and maintain all Product materials and components and
shall accept and fulfill Purchase Orders placed by OMP in conformance with the
terms of this Agreement.
1.6
Quantity Increases;
Shipment. At the time purchase
forecasts are placed at the beginning of each quarter in accordance with Section
1.4, OMP may request, and Triax will consider in good faith,
(i) a maximum quantity by which OMP may increase the quantity of Products
specified in the forecast (which may not be greater than [XXX]*% of the amount that was specified in the
forecast) , and the period of time from the date of the Purchase Orders within
which OMP may order any such increased quantity; and (ii) a maximum period of
time for which OMP may defer the shipment date specified in the Purchase Orders
for all or part of the Products covered by the Purchase Orders and the period of
time from the date of the Purchase Orders within which OMP may elect any such
deferral.
1.7 Other Modifications of
Purchase Order. Each Purchase Order shall constitute a binding agreement
between Triax and OMP, and the Parties may not modify a Purchase Order except in
writing and upon obtaining the signature of an authorized representative of each
Party. Any such requests for modifications shall not be unreasonably
withheld or delayed by either Party. If any modification of a
Purchase Order causes a decrease or reasonably-supported increase in Triax's
manufacturing cost, Triax promptly shall notify OMP prior to enacting such
change and the change, which shall be noted in writing on the Purchase Order,
shall become effective immediately upon the date of such notification.
3
1.8 cGMP Quality
standards. All Products that Triax sells and delivers to OMP under this
Agreement shall be manufactured, stored, and handled in compliance with all
applicable federal, state, and local laws, regulations, ordinances, and any
other legal requirements, including, without limitation, the Federal Food, Drug,
and Cosmetic Act, 21 U.S.C. §§ 301 et. seq. Triax shall document the
reliability and quality of its manufacturing and delivery processes as it
relates to the Products. At the request of OMP, Triax shall deliver in writing
to OMP personnel documentation (consistent with that which would be required by
regulatory agencies to which Triax is subject) which demonstrates the
implementation of these policies in the design, analysis, test and manufacture
of the Products, each in accordance with cGMP and FDA standards to the extent
they are applicable.
1.8 Triax's Additional
Obligations. Triax shall immediately notify OMP within twenty-four (24)
hours of any adverse or unexpected results or any actual or potential notice of
government action regarding a Product. Triax agrees to immediately notify OMP of
any recall of any Product and to administer and pay all costs (unless such
recall is the result of OMP’s modification of the recalled Product or OMP’s
improper or inadequate storage of such Product at OMP’s distribution centers, in
which event the cost of such recall will be borne by OMP) associated with any
such recall (and any related retrieval and/or replacement) of any
Product.
1.9 OMP Marketing. OMP
shall throughout the term of this Agreement promote, market, and sell the
Products in all of OMP's active accounts throughout the United States and, to
the extent permitted by law, internationally. Such activity shall include the
development of sales collateral, and incorporation of the Products into
appropriate educational seminars and physician training. OMP shall submit all
sales collateral and printed material referencing the Products to Triax for its
review and approval (not to be unreasonably withheld).
1.10 International Registration
Requirements. Subject to the terms of this Agreement,
(i) OMP shall, at its expense, comply with all applicable laws and
regulations of the United States and any international jurisdiction into which
it intends to sell the Products, including but not limited to, export laws and
restrictions and regulations of the United States Department of Commerce or
other United States or foreign agency or authority, and shall not export, or
participate in any transaction which may involve the export or re-export, of any
Product in violation of any such restrictions, laws or regulations;
(ii) Triax will assist OMP in obtaining any required registrations,
licenses and permits for the Products and the marketing, sale and distribution
of the Products in various jurisdictions in the International Channel by
supplying such documentation or information as may be reasonably requested by
OMP; and (iii) for any countries identified to Triax by OMP as being
countries in which OMP intends to market the Products, OMP will
obtain and maintain, at OMP’s sole cost and expense, during the term of this
Agreement all governmental approvals and licenses necessary to import the
Products into such countries. Unless otherwise consented to in
writing by Triax in connection with an applicable requirement of law, all
registrations, licenses and approvals for the Products and the distribution of
the Products in any jurisdiction in the International Channel shall be in the
name of and shall be solely owned by Triax. In addition, OMP will
transfer to Triax, at OMP’s sole cost and expense, any registrations, licenses
and approvals then in effect at the time of any expiration or termination of
this Agreement. OMP shall provide Triax with a copy of all
registrations, licenses and approvals obtained or received for the Products and
distribution of the Products in each jurisdiction in the International Channel
within three (3) business days of
OMP’s receipt of each such registration, license or approval. In
furtherance of, but without limiting, the foregoing, OMP represents that it has
read, understood and will comply with the anti-bribery provisions of the U.S.
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

2. PRODUCT
PRICES
2.1 Price List. The
prices for Products purchased hereunder shall be as specified in Exhibit B (the "Prices") which is
hereby incorporated into this Agreement. Such price increases
shall be effective for all purchase orders issued on or after the Effective
Date. The Parties will negotiate in good faith to agree in writing on
the Prices for Future Products. Except as expressly provided herein,
all Prices are fixed through the term of this Agreement in United States
dollars, except changes agreed to in a mutual, signed writing, including any
changes contemplated by Section
1.7. Triax may also increase Prices, provided such increases
occur no more than once per twelve (12) month period, and are based on increases
in costs demonstrated to OMP's reasonable satisfaction are the sole result of
incremental increases in raw materials, packaging, labeling design and/or
similar costs and the integration of custom-labeled Product tubes into the
manufacturing process. Prices are exclusive of shipping charges and
inclusive of (i) all applicable local, state and federal taxes, and (ii) any
other costs (including, without limitation, set-up, testing and tooling costs
and non-recurring engineering expenses) incurred by Triax in connection with the
manufacture, sale and delivery of Products in accordance with this
Agreement.
OMP shall
also be entitled to volume discounts to the base pricing listed on Exhibit B,
for Product purchased in excess of [XXX]* tubes/units per calendar year, and to the
extent such Product is sold through to OMP's customer's within a reasonable time
of OMP’s receipt of such Product. Volume discounts will be
based on calendar year performance and applied to cumulative year-to-date
purchases in excess of [XXX]*
units per year, such that annualized volumes over [XXX]*
units will be sold by Triax to OMP at a [XXX]*
% discount to Prices.
3. LEAD TIME, SHIPMENT AND
DELIVERY
3.1 Lead Time For
Products. It is understood and agreed between the Parties that Products
with OMP-branded packaging must be manufactured in quantities of at least
[XXX] *
units per SKU, with OMP paying for the split charge of approximately $[XXX]*
per run. There will be no minimum batch size requirements for non-OMP
branded Products. Triax agrees that such Product will
have a minimum of thirty six (36) months expiration date for OMP
branded products and twenty-three (23) months expiration date for non-OMP
branded Products, in each case from the date of manufacture (and, in the case of
the
5
gel, eighteen (18) months expiration date from
the date of delivery to OMP). In
the case of the gel Products, should the dating be short, OMP can choose to go
on back order. Triax shall deliver all Products to OMP, in compliance
with the terms of this Agreement, within one hundred twenty (120) days of
Triax’s receipt of a Purchase Order ("Lead Time"), unless
otherwise mutually agreed to by the Parties in writing.
3.2 Shipment. Triax shall
ship all Products purchased under this Agreement F.O.B. shipping point, to the
location specified by OMP in each Purchase Order, so as to be received by OMP,
allowing for normal transit times, in accordance with the quantities and
delivery schedule specified on the corresponding Purchase Order. If any shipment
is late due to Triax's fault, Triax shall ship the effected Product by such mode
of expedited shipment specified by OMP, at Triax's sole expense. Triax shall
cause the delivery of all Products to OMP's receiving department during normal
business hours, unless otherwise directed by OMP.
3.3 Mode of Shipment. The
mode of shipment shall in each instance be ground transportation, unless
otherwise specified by OMP on the Purchase Order or pursuant to late delivery
provisions of Section 3.2. In the absence of specific instructions by OMP, Triax
will select the best carrier for shipment at the most advantageous
price.
3.4 Risk of Loss/
Insurance. Risk of loss and damage shall pass from Triax to OMP upon
delivery by Triax or the common carrier to OMP's representative at the F.O.B.
shipping point described in Section 3.2 above.

containing 0.025% cream concentrations shall be packaged with OMP branded
packaging, label design and label copy only until current packaging inventory
has been exhausted. The other current Products (0.1% and 0.05% creams) shall be
packaged with OMP branded packaging, label design and label copy as in effect on
the Effective Date("Packaging
Specifications"). All OMP branded Products will use the
same packing tubes as then-currently utilized by Triax in its Tretinoin
production. Notwithstanding the foregoing, once the remaining 0.025%
cream concentration tube inventory is exhausted, all such packaging for that
concentration, and any Future Products shall be in generic Triax packaging, and
there will be no minimum batch size purchase requirements for any generically
branded sku’s.
Packaging Specifications shall comply with all applicable FDA labeling
requirements.
3.6 Use of Intellectual
Property. Triax shall use any trademarks, trade names, logos, products
names, or labels of OMP, and any derivatives thereof or intellectual property
rights related thereto, solely for purposes of performing under this Agreement
and only in accordance with this Agreement and the instructions of OMP. This
Agreement is not intended to, and shall not be construed, to result in any
transfer of either Party’s intellectual property rights or related interests,
registered or not, domestic or foreign, to the other Party.

3.7 Payment Terms. The
terms of payment for all Products purchased under this Agreement shall be net
thirty (30) days from the date of OMP's receipt of invoices for Products. Triax
shall submit all invoices to OMP's corporate offices, Attn: Accounts Payable,
unless otherwise instructed by OMP.
3.8 Delinquent Accounts.
All amounts due and owing to Triax hereunder, but not paid by OMP within fifteen
(15) business days of the due date thereof, shall bear interest in U.S. dollars
at the rate of the lesser of: (i) one per cent (1%) per annum above the then
applicable prime interest rate announced by the Wall Street Journal for 90-day
U.S. dollar loans to prime commercial customers in the United States; or (ii)
the maximum lawful interest rate permitted under applicable California law. Such
interest shall accrue on the balance of unpaid amounts from time to time
outstanding from the date on which portions of such amounts become due and owing
until payment thereof in full.
3.9 Billing
Disputes.
(a) In the
event that a billing dispute occurs concerning any charges billed to OMP by
Triax, OMP must submit documentation regarding the disputed amount.
Documentation must be submitted to Triax within one hundred twenty (120) days of
OMP's receipt of billing invoice for the Products.
(b) If the
dispute is resolved in favor of OMP and OMP has withheld the disputed amount, no
interest credits or penalties will apply. If the dispute is resolved in favor of
OMP and OMP has paid the disputed amount, OMP will be credited with interest on
such amount by Triax at the rate of one percent (1%) per month, from the date
Triax received payment up to and including the date of refund. If the dispute is
resolved in favor of Triax and OMP has paid the disputed amount on or before the
payment due date, no interest credit or penalties will apply.
(c) If the
dispute is resolved in favor of Triax and OMP has withheld the disputed amount,
any payments withheld pending settlement of the disputed amount shall bear
interest at the rate of one percent (1%) per month, from the payment Due Date up
to and including the date of payment.
(d) If any continuing dispute between the Parties is not resolved within one
hundred twenty (120) days of the due date, after reasonable attempts by OMP and
Triax, the dispute will be referred to the respective executive responsible for
each Party's respective obligations under this Agreement. The executives will
negotiate in good faith to resolve the dispute informally. During the course of
such negotiations, all reasonable requests made by one Party to the other for
information will be honored by the Parties. Both Parties shall continue
performing their respective obligations under this Agreement while the dispute
is being resolved, except to the extent that such obligations are in dispute,
unless and until this Agreement expires or is terminated in accordance with its
terms. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute within the process
above then either Party may exercise any remedies, in law or equity, available
to it.
4. PRODUCT INSPECTION AND
ACCEPTANCE
7
4.1 Acceptance Inspection and
Testing. OMP shall have the right, at its sole discretion, to perform
acceptance testing and inspection of any shipment of Products ("Acceptance Testing")
to determine whether or not such Products, when delivered by OMP, conform with
the specifications set forth in Exhibit A (the “Specifications”).
Such Acceptance Testing shall take place, at OMP's election, either on Triax's
premises (during normal business hours and upon reasonable notice to Triax),
OMP's premises, or at a location selected by OMP (including the premises of any
customer of OMP). OMP shall have sixty (60) days from receipt of a shipment of
Products to perform such Acceptance Testing ("Initial Acceptance Testing
Period").
4.2 Non-Conforming
Products. If OMP reasonably determines within the Initial Acceptance
Testing Period that all or any portion of a shipment of Products are
non-conforming with the Specifications, OMP shall provide Triax a notice of
non-conformance and appropriate supporting documentation, and unless Triax
disputes such determination in good faith, Triax shall promptly correct the
defects identified by OMP or supply new Products within thirty (30) days after
receipt of OMP's notice of non-conformance. All costs and expenses associated
with any such correction or replacement, including, without limitation,
transportation charges for return to Triax and subsequent return to OMP, shall
be borne solely by Triax. Upon receipt by OMP of corrected or replaced Products,
OMP shall have an additional sixty (60) day period to conduct Acceptance Testing
("Additional
Acceptance Testing Period"). If during such Additional
Acceptance Testing Period, OMP determines that any of the Products are still
non-conforming with the Specifications, Triax shall (unless Triax disputes such
determination in good faith) provide new replacement Products for all
non-conforming Products at Triax's sole cost and expense and OMP shall have a
second Additional Acceptance Testing Period for such replacement
Products. If Triax disputes any determination by OMP that
the Products do not conform with the Specifications, the Parties shall submit
the Products at issue to a mutually-acceptable, independent testing lab, and the
report issued by such testing lab shall be final and binding on the
Parties. The fees charged by such testing lab will be paid by the
Party whose position is not supported by the report of the testing
lab. If the testing lab’s report supports the position of OMP, then
Triax shall correct defects or supply new Products as set forth above, provided
that the time period for doing so shall end thirty (30) days after the date on
which the parties receive the testing lab’s report.
4.3 No Waiver of
Warranty. In no event shall OMP's inspection and acceptance of any
Product pursuant to this Section 4, or the payment for such Product by OMP, in
any way impair or reduce OMP's rights under the warranty provisions of Section 8
of this Agreement.
4.4 Facilities’
Surveys. Following reasonable notice to Triax, OMP reserves
the right on an annual basis, and for cause as necessary due to any regulatory
or other governmental or quality control issued that may arise, to
review (or have its agents review), during regular business hours, Triax's
manufacturing facilities and Triax's quality control procedures, both prior to
first Product deliveries and periodically thereafter, in order to assure
compliance with the Specifications and other standard industry practices and
procedures.
5. SPECIFICATION AND OTHER
CHANGES

5.2 OMP Changes. OMP may
propose changes to the Specifications, and Triax shall consider the feasibility
of any such proposal. Triax shall, within thirty (30) days of receipt of OMP's

including an expression of its willingness to implement the same, the price
implications, if any, of the change, and the time schedule required for
implementation.
5.3 Change in Source of
Parts. Triax promptly shall notify OMP in writing of, including the
reason for, any change in the source (including the addition of new vendors) of
purchased components (including, without limitation, active or inactive
ingredients) for any Products. Upon request, Triax shall provide OMP with copies
of raw ingredient certificates of analysis consistent with past
practice.

Specifications documentation or similar documentation issued by it during the
term of this Agreement that affects any Product. Such copies shall be provided
to OMP as soon as practicable, but in no event later than ten (10) days after

extent of damages in the event of a breach of this Section 6 of the Agreement
would be difficult or impossible to ascertain and that there will be available
no adequate remedy at law in the event of any such breach. Both Parties
therefore agree that in the event either Party breaches any provision of this
Section 6, the non-breaching Party shall be entitled to specific performance and
injunctive or other equitable relief, in addition to any other relief to which
it may be entitled at law or in equity.
