16. Section 7.1(c) of the Rite Aid Agreement is hereby deleted in its entirety.
17. Section 7 of the Rite Aid Agreement is amended by the addition of a new Section 7.12 as follows:
Change in Payment Terms. McKesson reserves the right, in its reasonable discretion and upon prior written notice, to change a payment term (including imposing the requirement of cash payment upon delivery (“C.O.D.”) or limit total credit, if McKesson concludes there has been an unsatisfactory payment performance and such unsatisfactory payment performance remains uncured for a period of [***Redacted***] following Rite Aid’s receipt of written notice (the “Unsatisfactory Payment Notice”, which shall set forth in reasonable detail the grounds or basis for such determination) thereof. For purposes hereof,
7
“unsatisfactory payment performance” shall be defined as failure by Rite Aid to pay at least [***Redacted***] of the full amount owed to McKesson on the applicable due date; provided however, nothing in this Section 7.12 shall limit any of Rite Aids rights pursuant to Section 7.3 of this Agreement. If McKesson has changed Rite Aid’s payment terms to C.O.D. and Rite Aid fails to make such C.O.D. payment, McKesson further shall be entitled to suspend or discontinue the shipment of any additional orders to Rite Aid’s Pharmacies and Warehouses.
In the event that McKesson exercises its right to change payment terms pursuant to this Section 7.12 as specified above, McKesson will offer Rite Aid an additional [***Redacted***] for each day Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”) is reduced beyond the then current payment terms and any such pricing adjustment will be reflected in the invoiced Cost of Goods (“DSO Cost of Goods Adjustment”). With the exception of the DSO Cost of Goods Adjustment, McKesson shall have no right to alter any pricing terms under this Agreement in conjunction with its right to change payment terms pursuant to this Section 7.12. Notwithstanding anything in the foregoing, in the event that McKesson changes Rite Aid’s payment terms hereunder pursuant to Section 7.12 above, Rite Aid shall have the right [***Redacted***].
If following any change in Rite Aid’s payment terms by McKesson, Rite Aid becomes and remains for [***Redacted***] consecutive business days current with respect to all outstanding amounts due and owing to McKesson, McKesson agrees that it will immediately following such [***Redacted***] period restore Rite Aid to [***Redacted***]. Upon such restoration of [***Redacted***], any previously applicable DSO Cost of Goods Adjustment will no longer be in effect. Additionally, in the event that Rite Aid’s payment terms are restored as discussed above and a subsequent unsatisfactory payment performance occurs, McKesson shall retain all of its rights to again change Rite Aid’s payment terms in accordance with this Section 7.12.
