AMENDED AND RESTATED PRIME VENDOR AGREEMENT
This Prime Vendor Agreement (“PVA”) is dated May 1, 2016 (“Effective Date”) between AmerisourceBergen Drug Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“ABDC”), and CareKinesis, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and X.X. Xxxxxxxxx, Inc., a California corporation d/b/a St. Xxxx (collectively, “Customer”).
This PVA completely amends and restates the Prime Vendor Agreement made as of March 1, 2016 between ABDC and CareKinesis, Inc. and X.X. Xxxxxxxxx, Inc. (the “Former Agreement”). For the avoidance of doubt, the Former Agreement is hereby terminated in its entirety.
Capitalized words used in this PVA that are not defined in the body of the PVA have the meaning given to them in the attached Exhibit incorporated herein. The parties agree as follows:
1. Prime Vendor. ABDC will be Customer’s “Prime Vendor” for the entire Term. This means that Customer will participate in the PRxO® Generics program per ABDC’s requirements throughout the Term and each month: (a) purchase from ABDC for each Facility at least 95% of the total dollar amount of all Rx that Customer purchases that are available through pharmaceutical wholesaler distributors; (b) purchase from the PRxO Generics formulary at least 95% of the total dollar amount of all generic Rx that Customer purchases that are available through pharmaceutical wholesaler distributors; (c) maintain a minimum PRxO Ratio of [**]%; and (d) make Net Purchases of at least $1,750,000; provided, however, if Product is not available from ABDC which causes Customer to buy direct from a manufacturer, Customer may purchase such Product outside of ABDC with such purchases excluded from the foregoing minimums. In addition to other remedies, ABDC may increase Price of Goods for all Products on 10 days’ notice if any Prime Vendor requirement is not met.
2. Price of Goods. Based on payment terms elected below, Customer’s Price of Goods for all Products other than Special Priced Products and CIIs not ordered by CSOS will be the Product’s Cost less the applicable discount set forth in the below grid, as determined within 15 days after the end of each month based on Customer’s Net Purchases and PRxO Ratio during the month.

5. Volume Rebate. After the first $[**] in Adjusted Net Purchases are made, if Customer is in compliance with this PVA, Customer will receive a $[**] volume rebate (“Volume Rebate”), representing a [**]% discount on these Adjusted Net Purchases. The Volume Rebate will be credited within 45 days after it is earned.
6. Payment. Price of Goods is based on Customer’s election of payment terms of Weekly Statement Due in 28 Days (ZF28; 32 DSO). Per this election, payment for invoices for purchases made Saturday - Friday must be received by the fourth following Friday. Price of Goods for all Products will be surcharged 0.05% if payment is not by ACH/EFT.
7. Deliveries; Drop Ships. Price of Goods is based on a delivery schedule of once a day, Monday - Friday, except holidays and warehouse inventory days, per the Exhibit’s terms. Additionally, Customer will be entitled to one emergency delivery per calendar quarter at no additional charge. Customer may be charged for each additional emergency order. ABDC will use commercially reasonable efforts to meet a requested delivery time for emergency orders; provided that if ABDC cannot do so, Customer may fill emergency orders outside the Program on such occasions using another provider notwithstanding minimum purchase commitments in this PVA. Drop ships are subject to supplier terms, surcharges and return restrictions and ABDC is not responsible for them or these terms/surcharges/restrictions. For Rx Products, ABDC will meet an adjusted fill rate service level of 98% each calendar month.
8. Returns & Recalls. When returning Products to ABDC, Customer will follow ABDC’s Returned Goods Policy, as amended from time to time, allowing for [**]% credit on Saleable Product returned within [**] days of invoice date; provided that if ABDC supplied defective Product to Customer, all such Product may be returned and need not be Saleable Product. Notwithstanding the foregoing, certain restrictions and a restocking fee will apply to CIIs as set forth in the Returned Goods Policy. If a supplier notifies ABDC of a Product recall, Customer will receive prompt notice of the recall per the supplier’s notice.
8. Ordering & Reporting. All Product orders must be placed electronically (CSOS for CIIs) or a surcharge will apply; provided that if Customer is unable to transmit orders for Products electronically due to ABDC’s system failure, Customer may transmit orders manually by telephone, fax or other available method and will not be subject to a surcharge. ABDC offers Customer, without additional charge, Web-based and smartphone ordering and reporting capability (ABDC PassPortTM). ABDC’s PassPortTM Nomad mobile solution is available for $100 per unit/month. Without additional charge, ABDC offers Customer bar-coded shelf labels and price stickers for Rx and OTC. All orders of controlled substances and listed chemicals are subject to the OMP. Orders identified by the OMP may be rejected and may result in future ordering restrictions.
9. Credit. Customer will abide by ABDC’s standard credit terms. Late fees will be charged per the Exhibit. In addition to any security interest provided previously or later by Customer to ABDC, to secure all of Customer’s

existing and future liabilities to ABDC, Customer hereby grants to ABDC a security interest in the following property now owned or hereafter acquired or arising (collectively the “Collateral”): all of Customer’s (a) Accounts; (b) Inventory; (c) Equipment; and (d) General Intangibles. All capitalized terms used herein and not defined have the meaning set forth in the UCC as in effect in any jurisdiction in which any of the Collateral may be located. ABDC may do such things as are necessary to achieve the purposes of this Section.
10. Term. This PVA starts on its Effective Date and ends April 30, 2019 (“Term”). After the Term, this PVA continues month-to-month until a party gives the other 90 days’ written notice. In addition to other remedies, this PVA may be terminated for cause upon written notice to the other party if the other party: (a) is bankrupt or insolvent; (b) fails to pay any amount due under this PVA and the failure continues for 5 days after receiving notice; (c) fails to perform any other material obligation of this PVA and the failure continues for 30 days after receiving notice; or (d) if it is determined that Customer has engaged in re-distribution of Product or places suspicious orders. ABDC also may terminate this PVA at any time after Customer’s Change in Control on 10 days’ notice. Within 5 days after this PVA ends, Customer will pay ABDC any amount owed and return to ABDC all hardware, software and other equipment or pay ABDC the item’s replacement cost. The prior sentence, the next Section, Exhibit Paragraphs 3, 5 and 6 and any other provision the context of which shows the parties intended it to survive after the PVA ends will remain in effect after the termination of the PVA.
11. General.
(a) Purchasing. Customer will (i) use all Products for its “own use” (as defined legally), (ii) not distribute Products to distributors, re-packagers or suppliers, (iii) not engage in speculative purchasing of Products, or (iv) not dispense Rx except as properly prescribed. ABDC may periodically audit compliance. Customer will promptly reimburse ABDC for chargebacks that are denied or not paid within 45 days.
(b) Legal Matters. ABDC does not manufacture any Products and disclaims all warranties, express or implied, including those of merchantability, non-infringement and fitness for a particular purpose, for Products and services. These warranties cannot be created by any source. Except for ABDC’s indemnification obligation pursuant to Section 3 of the Exhibit, ABDC will not be liable for special, incidental or consequential damages of any type. The prevailing party in any legal action, including a bankruptcy action, may recover all costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. A waiver or delay in enforcing this PVA will not deprive a party of its right to act later or due to another breach. This PVA is governed by Pennsylvania law; supersedes prior agreements regarding this arrangement, other than ABDC’s credit terms; and cannot be amended unless each party agrees in writing. The term “including” means “including, without limitation,”.
(c) Assignment. This PVA is for the benefit of, and binds the heirs, successors and assigns of, each party. However, Customer may only assign its rights or delegate its duties under this PVA, including by merger, Change in Control, asset sale, operation of law or otherwise, with ABDC’s prior written consent. Customer consents to ABDC assigning part or all of its obligations to any affiliate and to assigning or granting a security interest in this PVA in connection with any financing or securitization by ABDC or any affiliate.
(d) Other Obligations. Each of CareKinesis, Inc., and X.X. Xxxxxxxxx, Inc. (i) is jointly and severally liable for the satisfaction of any payment or indemnification obligations under this PVA, (ii) must individually comply with applicable ABDC credit and insurance policy requirements, and (iii) hereby grants to ABDC the security interest in its Collateral as set forth in the Section entitled “Credit” above. In the event of any breach by either CareKinesis, Inc., or X.X. Xxxxxxxxx, Inc. that gives ABDC a right to terminate this PVA, ABDC may terminate the PVA with respect to such party or in its entirety.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have had a duly authorized officer, partner or principal execute this Amended and Restated Prime Vendor Agreement as of its Effective Date.
