Section 3.3 Risk of Loss. All risk of Product loss or damage during the time that such Product is at the Facility, after receipt in good condition by SDS at the Facility, including inventory shortages which are unaccounted for, shall be borne by SDS, except to the extent caused by the negligence or willful misconduct of Orphan.

(b) SDS shall from time to time submit to audits and inspections by Orphan during normal business hours or at any other time during which the services being audited are ongoing, including but not limited to, audits of regulatory and quality assurance SOPs and of records of contacts with regulatory agencies, provided the scope of any such audit or inspection shall be limited to information and facilities pertaining to Orphan’s program.

(c) No employee of SDS who has been the subject of any disciplinary action by any State Board of Pharmacy shall be entitled to perform Covered Services.
Section 3.6 Returns and Replacement. In the event that Product is damaged in transit as a result of SDS’ negligence or its designated shipper, SDS will replace the Product to the Patient free of charge once the damaged Product is returned to SDS. SDS will monitor all reports of lost Product for the potential for abuse and diversion. SDS will cooperate with state and federal authorities fully in any investigations of lost Product, and will provide reports of such loss to Orphan on a monthly basis for the purpose of allowing Orphan to track the Product and satisfy its FDA reporting requirements. SDS will investigate the loss of Product by interviewing the Patient, and/or physician, report the loss to Orphan and to the appropriate regulatory authorities, as required by law, and record the loss in the Patient’s file. Where there is suspicion of abuse or diversion, SDS will contact the Orphan designee responsible for DEA issues, and lost Product will not be replaced without Orphan’s approval. Where abuse or diversion is not suspected, SDS will replace the lost Product at no charge to the Patient in the event such loss is the result of SDS’ negligence or its designated shipper and record the shipment in the Patient file. SDS will treat a repeat request for lost Product as suspicion of abuse or diversion and report it to the Orphan designee responsible for DEA issues, and SDS will not replace the lost Product without Orphan’s approval. For damaged Product, SDS will make a good faith effort to arrange for the damaged Product to be returned to SDS. Upon receipt of damaged Product, SDS will keep the damaged Product in a secure locked area, and will dispose of it at SDS’ cost in compliance with the applicable SOP for destruction of Product. If Product is returned to SDS due to a complaint of Product quality (i.e., Product taste, appearance, or faulty PIBA), Orphan shall reimburse SDS for the price paid by SDS to Orphan, if any, for such Product and for shipping costs associated with return of Product and SDS’ sending of Product for quality assurance testing at Orphan’s request. SDS shall not be required to disclose any Patient Confidential Information to Orphan pursuant to this Section 3.6 to the extent such disclosure is not permitted under HIPAA and other federal and state law.

If Orphan is required to recall or, on its own initiative, recalls or withdraws Product sold in the Territory, SDS shall reasonably assist Orphan in such recall in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. For such purposes, SDS shall maintain a complete and current list of all Patients and other third parties to whom SDS has shipped (or dispensed) Product, as well as from whom SDS has accepted returns of Product, with the lot numbers of Product dispensed/distributed or returned. Orphan shall pay for all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by SDS solely as a result of any such recall. SDS shall provide to Orphan, at Orphan’s request, any information reasonably requested by Orphan in connection with Orphan investigations relating to recalled Product, subject to the confidentiality constraints imposed by HIPAA and any other federal or state law.
Section 3.8 Expired Product. Orphan will at its cost replace Product that expires prior to the purchase thereof by SDS. Orphan will not replace expired Product once it has been purchased by SDS. SDS will dispose of, or return, expired Product as reasonably directed by Orphan, subject to applicable law, and Orphan shall promptly reimburse SDS for all reasonable expenses incurred in complying with this Section 3.8.
Section 3.9 Territory.

Section 3.10 Facility. Orphan reserves the right to inspect and approve any Facility used for Xyrem distribution prior to any change in the aforementioned Facility. The Facility shall be selected by SDS in its discretion and is subject to change from time to time upon no less than ninety (90) days prior written notice to Orphan.

Orphan may, without restriction, use any language referring to the Xyrem Success Program(SM), as well as any references to “pharmacy” in, or in conjunction with, any written materials that SDS is not requested by Orphan to send to Patients or any other party; provided that Orphan shall not use SDS’ name in connection with such references. If SDS reasonably believes that any correspondence from Orphan to Patients that Orphan requests SDS to send to Patients as part of the Covered Services does not comply with any applicable federal, state, or local law, SDS shall notify Orphan and provide reasonable detail as to its determination. The parties shall discuss SDS’ reasonable concerns and agree upon an alternative mailing or other course of action, if necessary. FDA laws are not limited to section 505 of the Federal Food, Drug and Cosmetic Act, but also include any special considerations required by the FDA for approval of any additional indication for the Product. SDS will be notified of such requirements in writing by Orphan. In the event any such special FDA requirements cause SDS’ obligations under this Agreement to be materially more burdensome or expensive, the parties shall promptly negotiate an appropriate modification to the Fees, and if the parties cannot agree on such a modification, or SDS in good faith views such additional responsibility as too burdensome to continue with the Agreement, SDS shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without penalty upon 5 days’ written notice to Orphan.

In the future, if necessary, SDS shall make a good faith effort to apply and obtain the requisite DEA license necessary in order for SDS to distribute Product to Persons other than the end-user; provided, however, that the foregoing obligation shall not apply if such license is not available.
