FORECASTS, ORDERS AND SHIPMENT
Section 3.1 Forecasts. In order to assist in the planning of production runs for the Product, the Licensee will, at least one hundred and eighty (180) days prior to the commercial Launch of the Product in the Territory, provide Quoin with a non-binding written forecast of estimated quantities of Product that the Licensee anticipates ordering from Quoin during the next eighteen (18) month period (the “Forecast”). This initial Forecast will be updated at least five (5) business days before the first day of the following calendar quarter after the date hereof and each successive calendar quarter and each such updated Forecast will be promptly delivered to Quoin by the Licensee. The first three (3) months of each such Forecast (the “Firm Order Period”) shall be binding on Licensee. The remaining fifteen (15) months of each such forecast shall be non-binding estimates for planning purposes. No Forecast shall be required for any period of time that extends beyond the Term (as in effect at the time of such Forecast). If and to the extent that is commercially viable to order a full batch (considering the level of demand in the Territory), the Licensee will forecast in amounts comprising full batch and in multiples of batch quantities, as such quantities are set forth on Schedule 6.1. Each Forecast will be made by the Licensee in good faith, taking into account reasonable projections of demand for the Product including, without limitation, allowing for reasonable safety stock of finished Product.
Section 3.2 Orders.
(a) The Licensee will place firm purchase orders (“Firm Orders”) for Product in writing for delivery at least ninety (90) days after the Purchase Order Date. A Firm Order shall only be deemed binding on Quoin upon acceptance in writing by Quoin provided that Quoin shall accept or reject each Firm Order in writing within seven (7) Business Days after Quoin’s receipt of each valid order which shall require that such order meets the requirements specified below. Each Firm Order will specify the quantity and description of each Product ordered, the requested delivery date (which delivery dates will not be on a Saturday, Sunday or holiday), the delivery address, the transportation method and carrier and any special instructions requested; provided that no Firm Order shall include a quantity of a Product that is greater than 125% of the quantity of such Product set forth in the Firm Order Period of the most recent Forecast delivered to Quoin by the Licensee, unless otherwise agreed by the Parties in writing. If and to the extent that is commercially viable to order a full batch (considering the level of demand in the Territory), the minimum size of any order placed by the Licensee will be a full batch (or multiples of a full batch) in accordance with Schedule 6.1 hereto, otherwise, Licensee shall be entitled to order partial batches and pay Quoin its direct out of pocket expenses or fees that are required for split batches. The Product set forth in Firm Orders will be delivered to such location as the Licensee designates in writing to Quoin from time to time. The date an order will be deemed placed (the “Purchase Order Date”) will be the date that Quoin actually receives the purchase order form. The Licensee will be fully responsible for any changes to a Firm Order, unless Quoin initiates such changes. Orders will be deemed accepted by Quoin unless Quoin provides notification of rejection to the Licensee within seven (7) Business Days of receipt of the Firm Order.
(b) Quoin will use its commercially reasonable efforts to supply the Product in accordance with each Firm Order placed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement by the Licensee to the extent accepted by Quoin including the quantities and delivery dates in each Firm Order. Each Firm Order will set forth a delivery date, not less than ninety (90) days after the date of such order.
(c) In the event that at any time Quoin foresees that it will be unable to supply to Licensee (or its nominee) in whole or in part an ordered or forecasted quantity of Product by the delivery date for any reason, including a Force Majeure event, Quoin shall notify Licensee of such inability as soon as possible, the reasons therefor and the date such inability is expected to end, the quantities of Product available during such period and the proposed amount of the raw materials and/or resources prioritized to Licensee in the event such inability is caused by a shortage of raw materials and/or resources required for the Manufacture of Product. Quoin will not (a) unreasonably refuse an order from Licensee and (b) in the event of a shortfall in Quoin's ability to supply the Products, it shall use its good faith best efforts to provide Licensee with as much quantity of the Products as possible, and in no event shall Quoin single Licensee out as the only party to whom a shortfall is applicable and will not disproportionally treat Licensee in respect to the supply of Products as to any other Quoin distributor or customer.
3 |
(d) Quoin shall deliver the Product to Licensee with at least 75% (seventy five percent) of remaining shelf life at the shipment date in accordance with Section 3.2(b), but in any event no less than eighteen (18) months shelf life on such date.
(e) The terms of this Agreement shall prevail over any conflicting, inconsistent or additional terms set forth in any Firm Order, invoice, or acceptance form.
Section 3.3 Delivery.
(a) All Product shipped under this Agreement will be shipped EX WORKS (INCOTERMS 2020), the facility where the Product is manufactured. Quoin shall provide Licensee with advance notice of shipment date to Licensee's satisfaction and the Licensee shall make necessary arrangements to pick up the shipment and will pay all freight, insurance charges, taxes, import and export duties, inspection fees and other charges applicable to the sale and transport of Product purchased by the Licensee following its delivery to Licensee in accordance with the delivery terms. Title and risk of loss and damages to Product purchased by the Licensee will pass to the Licensee according to INCOTERMS above.. In the event of damage or loss to the Product after delivery, the Licensee will be responsible to file claims with the carrier. Quoin shall notify Licensee of the following information concurrently with each shipment of Product: (i) date of shipment, (ii) quantity and type of Product shipped, and (iii) order number or other identifying information.
(b) Quoin shall perform quality assurance testing with respect to the Product sold hereunder, including stability testing, so that the Product conforms with the Specifications. Quoin shall provide Licensee with a Certificate of Analysis (“COA”) and a Certificate of Compliance (“COC”) confirming that the Product in such shipment has been tested in accordance with the Regulatory Approval and meets the Specifications via facsimile transmission. Any deviations and investigations related to such Product shall be completed in compliance with applicable Regulatory Approval and the Quality Agreement (as defined in Section 5.5 hereof).

(b) promptly (but in any event no later than five (5) Business Days after becoming aware) inform Licensee of any adverse events related to the Product and any inspections, communications, or material issues raised by the FDA, or any other relevant Governmental Authority, in connection with the Manufacturing of the Product, and shall provide Licensee with copies of any correspondence (including emails) relating thereto;

(b) except as set forth herein or in the Quality Agreement between the Parties, upon delivery of the Product to the Licensee, the Licensee will be solely responsible for compliance with all quality control testing and other testing requirements set forth in this Agreement and, further, all applicable Law with respect to the manufacture, import, sale, use, storage and commercialization of the Product in the Territory;
(c) where appropriate maintain the Regulatory Approvals for the Product in full force and effect throughout the Term.
Section 5.3 Rejection of Delivered Product. Within thirty (30) days of receipt of any shipment of Product and applicable COA and COC by the Licensee at its applicable warehouse, the Licensee will inspect the Product, COA and COC and advise Quoin of any defect, or missing information, revealed from such inspection whereby the Product does not conform to the Specifications. Any Product not refused within thirty (30) days will be deemed accepted. If the Licensee wishes to refuse acceptance, the Licensee will, within such 30-day period, provide written notice to Quoin of its refusal to accept the defective Product and the reason(s) therefor. In the event a hidden defect (i.e., one which could not have been reasonably identified during the initial 30-day Licensee inspection period) is discovered at a later date whereby the Product does not conform to the Specifications, the Licensee shall inform Quoin within fifteen (15) days after Licensee becomes aware of the alleged hidden defect. In the event that the Licensee refuses acceptance or rejects the Product due to a hidden defect, Quoin, upon confirmation of the reasons for refusal or rejection of the Product, will replace within ninety (90) days or as soon as reasonably practicable the defective Product at Quoin’s sole cost and expense (including the cost of shipping) or refund the Transfer Price and reimburse the shipping expense, at the Licensee’s option. If Quoin and the Licensee do not agree on the refusal or rejection of Product, then either Party may refer the matter for final analysis to a specialized laboratory of national reputation acceptable to both Parties for the purpose of determining the results. Any determination by such laboratory will be final and binding upon the Parties. The cost of any such review by a laboratory shall be borne by the Licensee if it is determined that the Product conforms to the Specifications, and by Quoin if determined that it does not. Except as set out in this Section 5.3 and Section 10.1, Quoin shall have no liability to Licensee for any defect for which it has not received notice from the Licensee as specified herein.
Section 5.4 Recall. Licensee, in consultation with Quoin, shall have the exclusive right to institute a recall and shall be responsible for managing the recall and communications with customers and Governmental Authorities. The Parties shall cooperate with each other in connection with any such efforts. In the event that any Product is quarantined or recalled by Licensee, or is subject to stop-sale action, whether voluntary or by governmental action, it is agreed and understood that any reasonable and documented expenses, including any out-of-pocket administrative costs and reasonable and documented fees of any experts or attorneys that may be utilized by either Party, government fines or penalties, related to such recall, quarantine or stop-sale, will be borne by the Licensee unless it is determined that the reason for the quarantine, recall or stop-sale action is solely the result of the failure by Quoin to manufacture and supply (or have manufactured and supplied) Product that meets the Specifications therefor under this Agreement, and in such case such expenses will be the responsibility of Quoin. If the Parties do not mutually agree on which Party is responsible for the recall or other field action, the responsibility for the recall or field action shall be determined by a mutually acceptable independent qualified third party whose fees shall be shared equally by the Parties.
Section 5.5 Quality Procedures. Quoin and Licensee shall comply with the terms of the quality requirements set forth in a quality agreement to be negotiated in good faith by the Parties and entered into by the Parties as soon as practicable after the date hereof (the “Quality Agreement”) with respect to the manufacture of the Product. To the extent that any inconsistencies or conflicts exist between the Quality Agreement and this Agreement with regard to quality requirements and compliance with applicable Law, the provisions of the Quality Agreement shall prevail. In all other matters the provisions of this Agreement shall prevail.

Licensee may request one or more Discretionary Manufacturing Changes by giving at least ninety (90) days written notice thereof to Quoin, whereupon if Quoin accepts the requested Discretionary Manufacturing Changes (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Parties shall cooperate in implementing such Discretionary Manufacturing Changes as promptly as reasonably practicable. Quoin shall promptly provide to Licensee Quoin’s good faith and detailed estimate of the actual and reasonable costs that will be incurred by Quoin resulting directly from any such Required or Discretionary Manufacturing Changes, including the cost of any obsolete inventory resulting from the changes. All such reasonable and documented costs shall be borne by Licensee.
(b) Quoin shall not in any respect amend, modify or supplement the Specifications or the manufacturing process or any materials or sources of materials used in connection with manufacturing the Product without the prior written consent of Licensee. Quoin may request or recommend one or more Discretionary Manufacturing Changes by giving at least ninety (90) days written notice thereof to Licensee and shall provide Licensee with appropriate documentation relating to any such changes to the Specifications or manufacturing process. If Licensee approves any such Discretionary Manufacturing Change, Quoin may implement such change in accordance with the specifications provided by Quoin to Licensee. If such a Change requires regulatory approval, Quoin shall provide all necessary documents, information and materials needed for such an approval. The Licensee shall promptly provide to Quoin Licensee’s good faith and detailed estimate of the actual and reasonable costs that will be incurred by Licensee resulting directly from any such Discretionary Manufacturing Changes, including the cost of any obsolete inventory resulting from the changes.

Quoin and Licensee shall cooperate with each other and use their commercially reasonable efforts to obtain any certificate or other document from any person as may be necessary to mitigate, reduce or eliminate any such Licensee Taxes.
Section 6.6 Separate Sale. Each shipment of Product to the Licensee will constitute a separate sale, obligating the Licensee to pay therefor, whether said shipment is in whole or only partial fulfillment of any order or confirmation issued in connection therewith, provided however that unless otherwise agreed by the Parties, Quoin shall bear any incremental costs and expenses incurred by Licensee due to the partial fulfillment of any Firm Order that is not rejected by Quoin pursuant to Section 3.2 above.

CONFIDENTIALITY
Section 9.1 Non-disclosure and Non-use Obligation. Each Party or its Affiliates or contractors may, from time to time, prior to or after the date hereof, disclose to the other Party information of a technical or non-technical nature that is not generally known to the trade or public. Each Party agrees that it will not, and will cause its Affiliates, and will use reasonable best efforts to cause its contractors, not to, use for any purpose other than as necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement, and will not disclose to anyone in any manner whatsoever, any such information including, without limitation, information relating in any way to the products, processes, and services of each Party or its Affiliates or contractors, which becomes known to the other Party on or prior to the date of the termination or expiration of this Agreement.

With respect to any such governmental order or requirement of applicable Law, the receiving Party, if legally permitted in the circumstances, shall promptly notify the disclosing Party of such order so that the disclosing Party may seek to quash such order or to obtain an appropriate protective order requiring that the confidential information that is the subject of such order or requirement of applicable Law be held in confidence or, if disclosed, be used only for the purposes for which such order was issued or such requirement of applicable Law covers.

The decision of the arbitrators shall be final and binding on the Parties and shall be accompanied by a written opinion of the arbitrators explaining the arbitrators’ rationale for their decision.

The Parties agree that, notwithstanding any provision of applicable Law, they will not request, and the arbitrators shall have no authority to award, punitive or exemplary damages against either Party. Pending the selection of the arbitrators or pending the arbitrators’ determination of the merits of any dispute, either Party may seek appropriate interim or provisional relief from any court of competent jurisdiction as necessary to protect the rights or property of that Party. The intent of the Parties is that except for seeking appropriate interim or provisional relief or the entering of an arbitration order in a court of competent jurisdiction, disputes shall be resolved finally in arbitration as provided above, without appeal, and without recourse to litigation in the courts. The Parties acknowledge that the 1958 United Nations Convention on the Recognition and Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards (the “New York Convention”) applies to this Agreement and to any arbitral award or order resulting from any arbitration concluded hereunder. The award may be made a judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.
