WORLDWIDE LICENSING AGREEMENT
Exhibit 10.25
WORLDWIDE LICENSING AGREEMENT
This agreement (“Agreement”) is between SCRIPSAMERICA, INC. (“Licensor”), a corporation doing business at CORPORATE OFFICE CENTRE TYSONS IL 1650 TYSONS BOULEVARD, SUITE 1580, TYSONS CORNER, ZIP 22102 in the State of VIRGINIA and GLOBAL PHARMA HUB (“Licensee”), a corporation doing business at 000 XXXXX XXXXXXX XXXXXX, XXXXXX XXXX, XXX 00000 in the State of FLORIDA for a license to market and distribute RapiMed products.
A description of RapiMed is as follows:
The target market for RapiMed is all OTC and prescription drugs, and we anticipate great success because our of our its NEW oral delivery technology (ODT) that is more effective than existing products due to its ability to melt faster, taste better and provide more accurate dosing.
Unlike other products available, ScripsAmerica’s initial pediatric remedy is much smaller and dissolves in the child's mouth in 25 seconds, therefore entering their system faster. RapiMed for children's pain and fever relief contains Acetaminophen (main ingredient in Tylenol), however the bitter taste of this active ingredient is masked. The cherry and wild grape flavors that our product will come in are most appealing to children. Additionally, RapiMed for children pain and fever reliefs dosage is controlled, not like the syringe based competing products and we offer the 80 mg for 2-6 year olds, and 160 mg for the 6-11 year olds.
RapiMed's children's pain and fever relief packaging is convenient, portable, child resistant and easy to use as well as eye-catching. The contents are aspirin free, ibuprofen free, sugar free and gluten free as well. Since the numerous Tylenol recalls in the recent past, there is a clear need for a better controlled, more efficient product to fill the void. We believe our RapiMed for children's pain and fever relief is that product.
