Medzoomer uses its proprietary Software as a Service Platform (“Platform”) to manage and facilitate delivery of prescription pharmaceuticals (“Packages”) through its proprietary system of contracted couriers, (“Subcontracted Couriers”). Pharmacy desires to arrange for same day delivery of Packages from the Pharmacy to its customers (“Customers”) either at their homes, places of business, or other Customer designated locations.
The parties agree as follows:
1. TERM. This Agreement begins on the Effective Date and continues for one-year. This Agreement automatically renews for successive one-year terms unless a Party gives written notice of its intent not to renew not less than ninety (90) days prior to the end of the term.
2. STATEMENTS OF WORK. Details regarding Delivery Services, additional obligations of the parties and applicable fees, and other charges will be set forth in a Statement of Work executed by the parties separate from this Agreement, (the “SOW”). Pharmacy shall pay Medzoomer according to the SOW. The SOW is governed by and incorporated into this Agreement. Invoices for Service fees shall be payable by the Pharmacy upon receipt and in no event later than fifteen (15) days thereafter. Medzoomer reserves the right to immediately terminate this Agreement if Pharmacy becomes more than thirty (30) days past due for payment of any invoices for Service fees. For billing or invoicing inquiries to Medzoomer: xxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxx.xxx.
3. DELIVERY SERVICES.
(A) Delivery Conditions. For each Pharmacy, Medzoomer will deliver Packages to Customers pursuant to the terms of this Agreement (“Delivery Services” or “Services”) as further defined in one or more SOWs. Medzoomer shall at no time deliver any alcoholic beverage or tobacco Package, and at no time does Medzoomer take title to Packages. Medzoomer may refuse to take custody of the Package if any of the below conditions are not met;
(i) Pharmacy shall prepare all Packages for delivery in properly sealed and labeled, tamper proof containers;
(ii) Pharmacy shall provide any instructions to the Subcontracted Courier necessary for Subcontracted Courier to care for and maintain the integrity of the Packages so they may ultimately be delivered to a Customer for safe use. Such instructions shall include requirements regarding the temperature at which the Packages need to be maintained during transport and any other similar instructions;
(iii) Pharmacy will provide proof of delivery information which shall include the date filled and the name of the Customer;
(iv) Pharmacy is responsible for compliance with all applicable laws and regulations related to the delivery of Packages, including any applicable requirements regarding verification of the Customer’s identity prior to delivery of a Package containing a controlled substance, and for providing clear instructions to Medzoomer and Subcontracted Couriers. Pharmacy assumes all liability for any and all claims arising out of the provision of Delivery Services by Medzoomer and its Subcontracted Couriers where such claims are related to compliance with applicable federal or state laws and regulations Pharmacy shall fully indemnify and hold harmless Medzoomer and Subcontracted Couriers for any and all claims, penalties, damages, costs, and losses, including without limitation attorney’s fees and costs, related to Pharmacy’s request for Delivery Services in a manner that violates state and/or federal laws.
(B) Couriers. Pharmacy understands that Medzoomer is a service for facilitating and monitoring Delivery Services, and that the delivery of Packages will be performed by Medzoomer’s Subcontracted Couriers. Consistent with its obligations herein, Medzoomer reserves the right to select the specific Subcontracted Courier that will perform deliveries for Pharmacy. Pharmacy agrees that it is not a third-party beneficiary of any contract for Delivery Services between Medzoomer and its vendor or vendors. Medzoomer shall ensure that all Subcontracted Couriers providing Services on behalf of Medzoomer hereunder are licensed, insured, drivers and that they are not excluded from participation in federal healthcare programs.
(C) Communication with Customers. When a delivery request is submitted to the Platform, the Customer will receive an SMS text message from Medzoomer, sent to the phone number entered by Pharmacy. SMS text messages will only contain information relating to the status of the delivery, including a link that allows the Customer to access additional details, and an option to opt-out of future text messages. If the phone number provided by the Pharmacy is a landline number (i.e. not a mobile number capable of receiving text messages), Pharmacy will inform Subcontracted Courier that the number is a landline and Subcontracted Xxxxxxx will attempt to contact the Customer by phone to provide delivery updates.
(D) Proof of Delivery. As further defined in one of more SOWs, Medzoomer shall require each Subcontracted Courier to make commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a signed proof of delivery from each Customer in accordance with Medzoomer’s standard practices and procedures and as directed by Pharmacy. If a Pharmacy requests proof of delivery that deviates from Medzoomer’s standard practices and procedures, the Pharmacy may request a custom proof of delivery process. Medzoomer will review such request and provide an estimate for the Service fees required to support the request. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pharmacy acknowledges that, in accordance with Section 3(iv) of this Agreement, Pharmacy is responsible for compliance with all applicable federal and state laws regarding applicable requirements for proof of delivery or verification of the identity of a Customer taking delivery of a Package.
(E) As further defined in one of more SOWs, any Package that a Subcontracted Courier is unable to deliver for any reason other than due to Medzoomer or Subcontracted Xxxxxxx’s negligence (each a “Failed Delivery”) will be returned to Pharmacy on the same day it is picked up for delivery. For purposes of returning a Failed Delivery, Pharmacy agrees to make Pharmacy personnel available to receive the returned Package or to provide a secure drop box where Subcontracted Courier can deposit the Package. Except for Failed Deliveries due to Medzoomer or Subcontracted Xxxxxxx’s negligence, Pharmacy agrees to compensate Medzoomer for any Failed Deliveries in accordance with the financial and pricing terms described in the SOW.
(F) If Subcontracted Courier cannot complete a delivery because of a lost Package attributable to the negligence of Subcontracted Courier, Medzoomer will reimburse Pharmacy for the actual costs of such lost Package, not to exceed five hundred dollars ($500) per lost Package. Further, if Package contained a controlled substance, Medzoomer will report the lost or stolen item(s) to the police.
(G) Medzoomer shall securely store the signatures and make them available in accordance with its standard practices and reports. To the extent that Pharmacy does not require a signature that is required under applicable law for a particular Package, Pharmacy shall be solely responsible for failing to secure such signature. Pharmacy acknowledges that Medzoomer and Subcontracted Couriers act solely as courier services and Pharmacy is solely responsible for identifying legal requirements applicable to the delivery of a particular Package or location, including any requirements related to the delivery of controlled substances.
4. DELIQUENT INVOICES AND CHARGES.
(A) Delinquent Invoices and Charges. An invoice will be deemed delinquent if Pharmacy does not pay it within fifteen (15) days of receiving the invoice (Delinquent Invoice(s)”). If Pharmacy has two (2) Delinquent Invoices, Medzoomer is hereby authorized to charge, and process, the Pharmacy payment method on file an additional fee of 3.5% of the amount due on each Delinquent Invoice (“Delinquency Fee”). Medzoomer reserves the right to process payments for Delinquent Invoices on a recurring basis and without further notice. Pharmacy agrees to the automatic deduction of Delinquent Invoice services fees, Delinquency Fees, and any other fees on the Delinquent Invoices without further notice from Medzoomer, and specifically authorizes Medzoomer to electronically charge the Pharmacy payment method on file for the fees specified herein, without additional notice. Pharmacy will provide Medzoomer with any updated payment information within 72 hours of any change. Pharmacy certifies that it is an authorized user of the payment information provided and that Pharmacy and the legal representative executing this Agreement have full legal authority to authorize recurring transactions to such account. This recurring payment authorization will remain in effect until Pharmacy cancels it in writing by submitting the request to Medzoomer and providing new payment information.
(B) Tolls and Other Fees. If Subcontracted Couriers incur tolls or other fees while delivering Packages, Medzoomer is authorized to add the amount of the toll or other fee to the Pharmacy’s invoice. Invoices for tolls and other fees shall be payable by the Pharmacy upon receipt and in no event later than fifteen (15) days thereafter. Medzoomer reserves the right to immediately terminate this Agreement if Pharmacy becomes more than thirty (30) days past due for payment of any invoices for tolls and other fees.
5. TERMINATION. Either Party may terminate this Agreement at any time and for any reason with written notice to the other Party ninety (90) days prior to such termination. Upon written notice of a material breach of this Agreement, the breaching Party shall have thirty (30) days to cure the breach. If the breaching Party does not cure the breach, the noticing Party is entitled to immediately terminate the Agreement. Medzoomer reserves the right to immediately terminate this Agreement if, in its sole discretion, it determines that Pharmacy is utilizing Medzoomer’s Delivery Services to further fraud upon or waste or abuse of resources of commercial payers, government payers, or Medzoomer, or in connection with other activity that violates the law. Upon the termination of this Agreement, Medzoomer shall promptly cease Services and the Pharmacy’s obligations under Section 2 and the SOW shall continue for any Service fees incurred prior to termination.
6. SOFTWARE AS A SERVICE AND NETWORK ACCESS. By executing this Agreement and subject to Pharmacy’s compliance with all other terms of this Agreement, Medzoomer will provide Pharmacy a non-exclusive, non-transferable right to access and use Medzoomer’s proprietary software Platform related to the Delivery Services provided herein and other services related thereto. The Platform provides Pharmacy with access to the Medzoomer network of Subcontracted Couriers and the ability to order Delivery Services described in Section 3. By using the Platform, Pharmacy agrees to be bound by the Pharmacy Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. The Parties acknowledge that Pharmacy retains all right, ownership, and interest in its identifiable data maintained in the Platform, but that Pharmacy data in the Platform may be aggregated and de-identified by Medzoomer (“Medzoomer’s Processed Data”), subject to the terms of the Business Associate Agreement between the Parties. Pharmacy grants Medzoomer a non-exclusive, fully paid, worldwide, non-transferable right and license to create Medzoomer Processed Data from Pharmacy data maintained in the Platform. Medzoomer owns and retains all right, ownership, and interest in Medzoomer’s Processed Data.
7. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY. Medzoomer or its licensors shall be the sole and exclusive owner, including all intellectual property rights, of Medzoomer’s Platform and of all materials provided by Medzoomer to Pharmacy, including (a) any and all trademarks, content, texts, designs, software, methodologies, tools, specifications, drawings, sketches, models, samples, records, documentation, works of authorship or creative works, ideas, knowledge, data, or other materials, (b) any and all of Pharmacy’s input, responses to Medzoomer inquiries, surveys, or suggestions with respect to Medzoomer’s Intellectual Property, (c) any and all improvements, enhancements, modifications, and derivative works of any of the foregoing, and (d) any and all de-identified data sets derived or created from data maintained by Pharmacy in the Platform pursuant to this Agreement (collectively, “Medzoomer’s Intellectual Property”).

Pharmacy shall not challenge, or assist any person or entity in challenging, Medzoomer’s or its licensors’ right, title, and interest in any Medzoomer Intellectual Property.
8. HIPAA. The Parties agree to comply with the Health Information Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (“HIPAA”) and all other applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations relating to patient confidentiality or privacy of “protected health information” as that term is defined under HIPAA, including information provided by Pharmacy to Medzoomer in order to effect deliveries. As part of such compliance, Pharmacy and Medzoomer agree that Medzoomer is a “business associate” of Pharmacy and by executing this Agreement, the parties agree to be bound by the terms of the Business Associate Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated herein. Pharmacy agrees not to provide Medzoomer’s Subcontracted Couriers with access to any protected health information. In furtherance of the foregoing, Pharmacy acknowledges that Medzoomer’s Subcontracted Couriers are not authorized to have access to protected health information and are acting solely as conduits for the transport of protected health information rather than subcontracted business associates to Medzoomer.
9. WARRANTIES. Pharmacy warrants that it will comply with all applicable state and federal laws, regulations, and/or rules of state boards of pharmacy regarding the delivery of Packages to Customers. Pharmacy warrants that each request for Delivery Services is submitted accurately and in compliance with applicable law, including the accurate designation of whether the Package contains a controlled substance. Pharmacy warrants that it will communicate any such requirements to Medzoomer and Subcontracted Couriers prior to delivery. EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN THIS AGREEMENT, NEITHER PARTY MAKES ANY REPRESENTATION OR EXTENDS ANY WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, TITLE OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
10. REPRESENTATIONS. Pharmacy makes the following representations and acknowledgments:
(A) Pharmacy represents that each request for delivery of a particular Package will be compliant with Applicable Law, will to the best of their knowledge be for a legitimate medical need, and that any specific requirements will be clearly communicated in writing to Subcontracted Couriers upon pickup. Pharmacy acknowledges that Subcontracted Couriers are couriers, and do not assume responsibility for identifying packaging, temperature, or any other requirements, including legal or regulatory requirements, that apply to a specific medication.
(B) Pharmacy represents that they will not knowingly ask Medzoomer or its Subcontracted Couriers to deliver a Package in any manner that violates applicable state and/or federal laws, regulations, and/or rules of state boards of pharmacy regarding the delivery of Packages.
(C) Pharmacy acknowledges that neither Medzoomer nor Subcontracted Couriers: (i) are a distributor and, (ii) at no time does Medzoomer or a Subcontracted Courier take title to Packages. Pharmacy acknowledges that it retains sole responsibility for identifying suspicious orders, suspicious prescribing patterns, and/or other activity that may indicate a violation of state or federal law, including without limitation, (“Red Flags”) related to the Packages that indicate substance abuse or drug diversion. Pharmacy represents and warrants that it has implemented processes for utilization review and identifying Red Flags and will not request that Subcontracted Couriers deliver Packages that have not been prescribed, to the best of its knowledge, for a legitimate medical purpose.
(D) Pharmacy authorizes Subcontracted Couriers to report any potential violations of state and/or federal law related to the delivery of controlled substances. Subcontracted Couriers may decline delivery of Packages if Subcontracted Courier reasonably determines that the requested delivery could potentially violate state and/or federal laws.
(E) Pharmacy is solely responsible for the accuracy of the phone number(s) and mailing and delivery addresses (“Contact Data”) entered into the Platform and for establishing the requisite authority or permission for Medzoomer to contact each recipient in connection with a Delivery Request. Pharmacy agrees that Medzoomer is not responsible for any claims or damages resulting from Pharmacy’s obligations in this subsection and further agrees to indemnify Medzoomer from any claims arising from Pharmacy’s representations in this subsection.
11. ASSIGNMENT. Neither Party shall assign its rights or delegate any of its obligations hereunder, without the prior written consent of the other Party, such consent which shall not be unreasonably withheld, provided, that Medzoomer may, without Pharmacy’s consent, assign this Agreement in whole to an entity that acquires all or substantially all of the business or assets of Medzoomer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Pharmacy agrees that Medzoomer uses Subcontracted Couriers for its Delivery Services and the use of such Subcontracted Couriers shall not require Pharmacy’s prior written consent.
12. WAIVER AND SEVERABILITY. No failure or delay on the part of either party in exercising any right under the Agreement will operate as a waiver of, or impair, any such right. No waiver of any such right will have effect unless expressly and affirmatively made in a written document signed by the party waiving such right. No waiver shall constitute or be construed as a continuing waiver or a waiver in respect of any subsequent default, either of similar or different nature, unless expressly so stated in such writing. No course of dealing, nor any failure or delay in exercising any right, shall be construed as a waiver, and no single or partial exercise of a right shall preclude any other or further exercise of that right or any other right. If any part of the Agreement is held to be void or unenforceable, it and any related provisions will be interpreted to best accomplish the unenforceable provision’s essential purpose, or such part will be treated as severable, leaving the remainder of the Agreement valid.
13. NON-EXCLUSIVITY. Medzoomer shall not be prohibited or precluded from performing any services for any third party, or other pharmacy including any pharmacy that has signed Medzoomer’s Participating Pharmacy Agreement with respect to Packages or services directly competitive with Pharmacy.
14. INDEMNIFICATION. Pharmacy shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Medzoomer and its affiliates, and each of their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and Subcontracted Couriers (collectively, the “Medzoomer Indemnitees”) from and against any and all claims, sanctions, penalties, criminal damages or fines, or civil or monetary damages of any kind incurred by any Medzoomer Indemnitee in connection with any claim arising from: (a) the negligence or intentional misconduct or fraud by Pharmacy or any of its affiliates; (b) a breach of this Agreement or any warranties defined in this Agreement by Pharmacy or any of its affiliates; (c) Pharmacy’s request to deliver a Package in a manner that violates any applicable law or regulation; and (d) Pharmacy’s breach of its obligations regarding Contact Data.
15. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY. Except for a Party’s Indemnification obligations, neither Party shall be liable to the other Party for any incidental, indirect, consequential, punitive or special damages, including lost profits, arising out of this Agreement or any non-performance of this Agreement; provided, however, there shall be no limit on any damages recoverable by a Party in instances where the other Party has been grossly negligent or has engaged in willful misconduct or fraud. IF PHARMACY IS DISSATISFIED WITH THE PLATFORM OR SERVICES OR ANY OF MEDZOOMER’S TERMS, CONDITIONS, RULES, POLICIES, GUIDELINES, OR PRACTICES, OR OTHERWISE HAS A DISPUTE WITH MEDZOOMER, PHARMACY’S SOLE AND EXCLUSIVE REMEDY IS TO TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT AND DISCONTINUE USING THE PLATFORM AND SERVICES. WITHOUT LIMITING THE GENERALITY OF THE FOREGOING, MEDZOOMER SHALL NOT BE LIABLE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES OR UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO THE PLATFORM OR SERVICES, OR ANY OTHER SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT, FOR (A) ANY DAMAGES FOR LOST DATA OR CONTENT, LOSS OF PROFITS,WORK STOPPAGE, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, MEDICAL MALPRACTICE OR NEGLIGENCE OF ANY HEALTHCARE PROVIDER, PHARMACY, OR OTHER PARTY UTILIZED THROUGH USE OF THE PLATFORM OR SERVICES, EVEN IF MEDZOOMER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, (B) THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES, (C) ANY USER GENERATED CONTENT, OR ANY CONTENT OF ANY OTHER USER OF THE SERVICES, OR (D) ANY MATTERS BEYOND MEDZOOMER’S REASONABLE CONTROL. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THIS AGREEMENT, THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY OF MEDZOOMER FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, LIABILITIES, COSTS AND EXPENSES UNDER ANY LEGAL THEORY, WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE PLATFORM OR SERVICES, OR ANY OTHER SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE FEES THAT PHARMACY PAID MEDZOOMER IN THE THREE (3) MONTH PERIOD IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE CIRCUMSTANCES GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM OR IF NO FEES WERE PAID, ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100). THE LIMITATIONS AND DISCLAIMERS IN THIS SECTION DO NOT PURPORT TO LIMIT LIABILITY OR ALTER PHARMACY’S RIGHTS THAT CANNOT BE EXCLUDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW.
16. FORCE MAJEURE. Neither Pharmacy nor Medzoomer will be liable for delays in performing their respective obligations to the extent such delay is caused by any unforeseeable conditions which are beyond the reasonable control of the Parties, including the following: storms, floods, acts of God, acts of civil or military authorities, labor disputes, fires, epidemics, pandemics, wars, or riots (“Force Majeure Events”). If any Force Majeure Events exist, the effected Party shall be responsible for notifying the other Party of the cause and extent of any Force Majeure. In the event a delay of one Party’s obligations under this paragraph extends beyond fifteen (15) days, the other Party may terminate this Agreement upon notice without penalty to the terminating Party.
17. MEDIATION; ARBITRATION.
(A) Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof or the use of the Platform or Services (collectively, “Disputes”) not resolved after good faith negotiation within ten (10) days following the date either Pharmacy or Medzoomer provides written notice of a dispute to the other party, Pharmacy and Medzoomer shall promptly attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute by non-binding mediation in Hillsborough County, Florida. The Parties shall select a mediator and engage in mediation within twenty-five (25) days after the notice of the Dispute. If Pharmacy and MedZoomer cannot mutually agree on a mediator, each will choose a mediator, and those mediators will work together to choose the mediator who will handle the mediation. Pharmacy and MedZoomer shall share equally in the costs of the mediator. Each Party will be responsible for its own attorneys’ fees.
(B) Any Disputes that are not settled by mediation shall be settled by binding arbitration between Pharmacy and Medzoomer, except that each party retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of a party’s copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents or other intellectual property rights. The arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in accordance with the Commercial Arbitration Rules and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (the “AAA Rules”) then in effect, except as modified by this section.
(C) A party who desires to initiate arbitration must provide the other party with a written demand for arbitration as specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator will be either a retired judge or an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of Florida and will be selected by the parties from the AAA’s roster of consumer dispute arbitrators. If the parties are unable to agree upon an arbitrator within seven (7) days of delivery of the demand for arbitration, then the AAA will appoint the arbitrator in accordance with the AAA Rules.
(D) Unless Pharmacy and Medzoomer otherwise agree, the arbitration will be conducted in Hillsborough County, Florida. If the Dispute does not exceed $10,000, then the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents Pharmacy and Medzoomer submit to the arbitrator, unless a request for a hearing is made or the arbitrator determines that a hearing is necessary. The arbitrator will render an award within the time frame specified in the AAA Rules. The arbitrator’s decision will include the essential findings and conclusions upon which the arbitrator based the award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The arbitrator’s award damages must be consistent with the terms of the “Limitation of Liability” section above as to the types and the amounts of damages for which a party may be held liable.

20. INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR RELATIONSHIP. The Parties are independent contractors, and nothing contained in this Agreement is intended, and shall not be construed, to place the Parties in the relationship of partners, principal and agent or employer/employee.
Neither Party shall have any right, power or authority to bind or obligate the other, nor shall either Party hold itself out as having such right, power or authority.
21. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; AMENDMENT. This Agreement, together with all Exhibits attached hereto, or links to terms, conditions or other agreements described herein, constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties, and supersedes all prior agreements, representations, warranties and undertakings, both written and oral, between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. Amendments or additions to this Agreement may be made only upon a mutually agreed documentation executed between Pharmacy and Medzoomer.
22. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed and delivered (including by facsimile transmission or .pdf) in one or more counterparts, and by the Parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when executed shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Statement of Work
This Statement of Work (“SOW”) is entered into on the date of Pharmacy’s signature below (the “Effective Date”) by and between Medzoomer, Inc. (“Medzoomer”) and [ ] (“Pharmacy”) pursuant to the Master Services Agreement (the “Agreement”) by and between Medzoomer and Pharmacy. This SOW is subject to and incorporated into the Agreement. Any capitalized term that is not otherwise defined in this SOW will have the meaning given to it in the Agreement. The following represents the approved scope of work authorized by this SOW:
| 1. | Scope of Services |
Medzoomer provides medication and pharmacy product deliveries (“Package(s)”) using a combination of its web-based technology platform (the “Platform”) and related delivery services (collectively, “Delivery Services”). Pharmacy desires to utilize such Delivery Services. Each Pharmacy will submit requests for the delivery of Packages to a designated address (a “Delivery Request”). Medzoomer will route Delivery Requests to its network of independently contracted couriers (“Subcontracted Couriers”), who will deliver the Packages as directed by the Participating Pharmacy.
| 2. | Assumptions. The fees listed in this SOW assume that the delivery requirements (e.g., signature process, pickup and return requirements), Platform configurations (e.g., reporting requirements, integration requirements), communication standards (e.g. number of text messages or other communications sent to Customers) and other details regarding configuration of the Platform or the provision of Delivery Services as defined in this SOW will substantially conform to Medzoomer’s reasonable standards and procedures for Delivery Services and Platform configuration. Pharmacy may request customizations, additional configurations or changes to Medzoomer’s standards regarding Platform configuration or Delivery Services. In the event of such request from Pharmacy, Medzoomer may review and provide an estimate for additional fees associated with supporting and implementing such request. If mutually approved, the parties will agree in writing to the nature, scope and pricing of such request. Medzoomer may, in its sole discretion, decline to support any request for changes or customizations which deviate from its standards and procedures. |
| 3. | Term and Termination: The Term of this SOW shall begin on the Effective Date and continue for period of one year. This SOW shall automatically renew for subsequent 12-month periods unless either party notifies the other party of its intent not to renew at least 30 days prior to the renewal date. Medzoomer will notify Pharmacy of any price increase for a renewal term at least 60 days prior to renewal. |
| 4. | Detailed Description of Delivery Services: |
Medzoomer and Subcontracted Couriers will provide the Delivery Services in accordance with the following process:
| a. | Requests for Package Delivery |
| i. | After configuration and implementation of the Platform in accordance with Medzoomer’s standard practices, Pharmacy will access the Platform pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and this SOW, including the provision of a Pharmacy account and creation of individual usernames and passwords for each individual that will submit requests on behalf of a Participating Pharmacy. | |
| ii. | Pharmacy will enter applicable information required for a Delivery Request, including: |
| 1. | Prescription number, including indication of whether the Package includes controlled substances | |
| 2. | Address where Package will be picked up (“Pickup Address”) | |
| 3. | Selection of Pickup Interval (defined below) | |
| 4. | Address where the Package will be delivered (“Delivery Address”) | |
| 5. | Name of the intended recipient, or person authorized to receive the Package on behalf of the intended recipient. |
| 0. | Applicable instructions necessary for Subcontracted Courier to provide appropriate care and maintenance of Packages and to ensure Packages can be used safely once delivered. | |
| 1. | Proof of delivery instructions as defined in this SOW, including recipient’s date of birth. |
| 6. | Indication of whether the Package contains controlled or non-controlled substances iii. Pharmacy will prepare all Packages for delivery in a properly sealed, name labeled and tamper proof container (12x16 envelopes, both standard and insulated), which are provided directly to Pharmacy by Medzoomer during the onboarding process (“Standard Containers”). Requests for additional Standard Containers can be submitted by a Pharmacy through the Platform. Pharmacy agrees to only use Standard Containers in connection with Delivery Requests and will not use Standard Containers for any other purposes. Pharmacy may request use of custom containers in lieu of Standard Containers and, if Medzoomer agrees to provide such custom containers, Medzoomer will invoice Pharmacy for the difference in cost between the customer container and the Standard Container. |
| b. | Upon submission of a Delivery Request, the intended recipient will receive SMS text messages from Medzoomer, sent to the phone number entered by the Participating Pharmacy. SMS text messages will only contain information relating to the status of the Delivery Request, including a link which allows the recipient to access additional Delivery Request details, and an option to opt-out of future text messages. In the event the phone number provided by Pharmacy is a landline number (i.e. not a mobile number capable of receiving text messages), Subcontracted Courier will attempt to contact the recipient by phone to provide updates regarding the status of Delivery Requests. |
| c. | Delivery of Packages |
| i. | Upon receipt of a Delivery Request, Subcontracted Courier will pick up Packages at the Pickup Address during the selected Pickup Interval. | |
