EXHIBIT 10.01 AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is entered into by and between Derma Sciences, Inc. ("Vendor") and Xxxxxxx Enterprises, Inc. and its subsidiaries ("Xxxxxxx") on behalf of itself and all facilities owned or operated by Xxxxxxx (individually, a "Xxxxxxx Facility" and collectively, the "Xxxxxxx Facilities"). IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual promises and covenants herein contained, and other good and valuable consideration the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows: 1. Agreement to Sell. Vendor agrees to sell to Beverly's distributor of choice the goods identified on Exhibit "A" attached hereto (the "Goods.") The Goods will have the specifications, features, pricing and carton specifications detailed on Exhibit "A." 2. Agreement to Purchase. Vendor shall be the primary supplier to Beverly's distributor of choice for the Goods. Xxxxxxx will work in good faith with the Xxxxxxx Facilities to assure purchasing of the Goods from Vendor provided that acceptable standards of service, timing, quantity and quality are consistently maintained. 3. Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement ("Term") shall begin on June 1, 1999 and run through May 31, 2001; provided, however, Xxxxxxx may, at its option, extend this Agreement for an additional year upon notice to Vendor given not later than ninety days prior to termination hereof; provided, further, in the event Xxxxxxx exercises the foregoing option, prices for the Goods in effect during the option year shall be renegotiated by the parties hereto. 4. Distribution and Payment Terms. Vendor shall ship the Goods upon order from such distributor(s) as Xxxxxxx may, from time to time, designate (individually, a "Xxxxxxx Distributor" and collectively, the "Xxxxxxx Distributors"). Vendor shall invoice the Xxxxxxx Distributors for ordered Goods at Vendor's standard "distributor list price" for such Goods. Thereafter, Vendor shall credit to such Xxxxxxx Distributor's account with Vendor an amount equal to the difference between Vendor's "distributor list price" to such Xxxxxxx Distributor for the subject Goods and the price therefor set forth on Exhibit "A" hereof. The foregoing notwithstanding, in the event Xxxxxxx certifies to Vendor that a Xxxxxxx Distributor distributes products exclusively to Xxxxxxx, then Vendor shall invoice such Xxxxxxx Distributor for ordered Goods at the price therefor set forth on Exhibit "A" hereof. Xxxxxxx so certifies Liberty Foods, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Xxxxxxx, and Vendor accepts such certification. 5. Shipment. All Goods shall be shipped in their normally stored condition with all orders properly marked and packaged in accordance with the specifications heretofore determined by Xxxxxxx, Xxxxxxx Distributors and Vendor. 6. Labels. The labels required by statute or regulation on the Goods shipped by Vendor shall in all material respects be in the form required by all applicable state and federal rules and regulations. 7. Liability Insurance. Vendor shall maintain product liability insurance with a reputable and financially sound carrier in the amount of $2,000,000 providing coverage for liability of Vendor for the sale of unreasonably dangerous products to Xxxxxxx together with other customary product liability coverage. 8. Damage to Shipments. If any shipment is damaged, distributor will resolve any claim for damages by first filing a claim for such damages with the shipper of the subject Goods. 2 The risk of loss shall pass to Distributor upon acceptance of each shipment. 9. Pricing. The price for the Goods shall be the purchase price indicated on the product formulary attached hereto as Exhibit "A." 10. Facility Contact by Vendor. Vendor will not mail, e-mail or deliver literature, product information or direct mail materials that have not been reviewed and approved by the Xxxxxxx Procurement Department. This does not include the Vendor's standard catalog mailings. 11. Termination Clause. This Agreement may be terminated by either party, no fault, no cause with ninety (90) days written notice. 12.

(ii) Vendor will rebate to Xxxxxxx the amount of two dollars per installed Press Pak dispenser. (iii) Vendor will provide to Xxxxxxx a written installation and removal plan within thirty (30) days of execution hereof. The plan shall provide for, inter alia, (a) removal of old dispensers, (b) installation of new "Press Pak" dispensers, (c) indemnification, secured by insurance, with respect to installation and removal, and (d) procedures for instituting claims relative to damages associated with installation and removal. (iv) Vendor will provide Xxxxxxx gallon bottle, chrome brackets at no charge and in a quantity sufficient to meet Beverly's immediate and on-going needs. B. Education and Inservice Support.

Vendor will provide to Xxxxxxx a written implementation plan within thirty (30) days of execution hereof. The plan shall be comprehensive with timelines defined. Vendor will furnish weekly status reports as to progress of implementation. 14. Year 2000 Compliance and Warranty. A. Vendor represents and warrants that: (i) Its internal computer (including both hardware and software) and information technology systems (collectively referred to hereinafter as the "IT Systems") and any Date Dependent Products provided or sold to Xxxxxxx by or through Vendor under this Agreement are Year 2000 compliant and designed to be used prior to, during, and after the calendar year 2000 A.D. (ii) Said IT Systems and Date Dependent Products will operate during each such time period without error relating to Date Data, specifically including any error relating to, or the product of, Date Data which represents or references different centuries or more than one century. 4 B. Vendor further warrants and represents that its IT Systems and Date Dependent Products are and will continue to be Year 2000 Compliant. All data processing by the IT Systems and/or Date Dependent Products will include Four Digit Year Format and recognize and correctly process dates for Leap Year. Additionally, all date sorting by the IT Systems and/or Date Dependent Products that include a "year category" shall be done based on the Four Digit Year Format code. C. Definitions: (i) Date Data. Any data or input which includes a reference to date. (ii) Date Dependent Product. A product or system sold to or provided to Xxxxxxx by Vendor is date dependent if it inputs, processes, stores, outputs or displays date information or if a system/product is affected in any way by the storage of or access to Date Data. (iii) Four Digit Year Format. A format that allows entry or processing of a four digit year date: the first two digits shall designate the century and the second two digits shall designate the year within the century. As an example, 1996 shall mean the 96th year of the 20th century. (iv) Leap Year. The year during which an extra day is added in February (February 29th). Leap Year occurs in all years divisible by 400 or evenly divisible by 4 and not evenly divisible by 100. For example, 1996 is a Leap Year since it is divisible by 4 and not evenly divisible by 100. 2000 is a Leap Year since it is divisible by 400. (v) Year 2000 Compliant. Data outside of the range 1990-1999 will be correctly processed in the IT Systems or Date Dependent Products software as well as any level of hardware including, but not limited to, microcode, firmware, application programs, files and databases. D. Remedies for Non-Compliance of Year 2000 Warranty. It shall be a Vendor 5 breach under this Agreement if its IT Systems and/or any Date Dependent Products sold or provided to Xxxxxxx fail to maintain and uphold the Year 2000 Compliance Performance Warranty. In such event, Xxxxxxx shall be afforded those remedies as set out hereinbelow: (i) Vendor shall forthwith refund to Xxxxxxx the total purchase price paid for any such non-complying Date Dependent Products; and (ii) Vendor shall hold Xxxxxxx harmless, and at its own expense defend or settle any claims, suits, actions or proceedings brought against Xxxxxxx to the extent such claim, suit, action or proceeding is based upon or arising from Vendor's breach of its representations and/or warranties set forth in this Agreement. Vendor shall pay all damages and costs finally awarded against Xxxxxxx (or payable by Xxxxxxx pursuant to a settlement agreement or settlement agreements) in connection with any such claim, suit, action or proceeding. 15. Notices. All notices, payments, demands, or consents required or permitted under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally or sent by certified or registered mail to the respective parties at the address set forth below or at such other address as shall be given by either party to the other in writing: To Xxxxxxx: Xxxxxxx Enterprises, Inc.
