Alliqua may inspect and analyze the Manufactured Products delivered to Alliqua for purposes of determining whether the Manufactured Products meet the applicable Specifications at the time of delivery thereof (such Manufactured Product, “Acceptable Manufactured Products”). Alliqua shall notify CCT in writing within thirty (30) days after the date of delivery to Alliqua (or within thirty (30) days after discovery that any Manufactured Product is not Acceptable Manufactured Products for reasons that could not reasonably have been detected by Alliqua’s customary inspection on delivery) of any Manufactured Product or portion thereof which Alliqua is returning because it is not an Acceptable Manufactured Product, including documentation of the reasons therefor. If CCT does not receive such notice within such thirty (30)-day period, the shipped Manufactured Products will be deemed accepted as Acceptable Manufactured Products.

 

5.2           Disputes Over Manufactured Products. CCT shall have a reasonable opportunity not to exceed thirty (30) days from the date of receipt of the notice described in Section 5.1 to inspect and/or test such Manufactured Product that Alliqua claims is not an Acceptable Manufactured Product. If CCT, after good faith consultation with Alliqua, disputes any determination by Alliqua that a Manufactured Product is not an Acceptable Manufactured Product, then representative samples of such Manufactured Product shall be forwarded to an independent Third Party laboratory jointly selected by CCT and Alliqua, in their reasonable discretion, for analysis, which analysis shall be performed in compliance with industry standards and applicable Law. The findings of such Third Party laboratory regarding whether the Manufactured Product was an Acceptable Manufactured Product shall be binding upon the Parties. The cost of such analysis by such Third Party laboratory shall be borne by the Party whose analysis was not substantiated by the findings of such Third Party laboratory.

 

5.3           Replacement of Manufactured Products That Are Not Acceptable Manufactured Products. CCT shall, at Alliqua’s option, either replace any Manufactured Product order or portion thereof which is not an Acceptable Manufactured Product as soon as reasonably practicable at CCT’s cost and expense, including shipping costs, or promptly refund to Alliqua the payments made for such returned Manufactured Products (including Alliqua’s shipping costs). At the sole option of CCT, said Manufactured Products may be returned to CCT, at CCT’s expense including shipping costs, or destroyed in an environmentally acceptable manner, in accordance with applicable Law, at CCT’s expense. CCT will not, however, replace any Manufactured Product which fails or ceases to conform to the Specifications or which is unsalable, in each case, as a result of improper storage, transport or other mishandling or other event after the Manufactured Product has been delivered to Alliqua, Alliqua’s designated courier or other Alliqua designee.

The sole and exclusive remedy available to Alliqua in connection with Manufactured Products that are not Acceptable Manufactured Products shall be replacement of such Manufactured Product by CCT in accordance with Section 5.3 above. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, Manufactured Products that are not Acceptable Manufactured Products shall be deemed not to have been delivered for purposes of Section 9.2(b).

(b)          If either Party desires to make a public announcement concerning the material terms of this Agreement, such Party shall give reasonable prior advance notice of the proposed text of such announcement to the other Party for its prior review and approval (except as otherwise provided herein), such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

10.1        Entire Agreement; Amendment. This Agreement, together with the exhibits and schedules hereto, which are hereby incorporated herein, represents the entire agreement and understanding between the Parties with respect to its subject matter and supersedes and terminates any prior and/or contemporaneous discussions, representations or agreements, whether written or oral, of the Parties regarding the subject matter hereto, and supersedes, as of the Effective Date, all prior and contemporaneous agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof (including for the Prior CDA).

SCHEDULE 2.2

 

(a)          Alliqua shall submit to CCT as soon as practicable after the Effective Date, and in any event not later than the thirtieth (30th) day after the date of this Agreement, and thereafter no later than the fifth (5th) Business Day of every month during the Term:

 

(i)          a three (3) year rolling forecast (“Long Range Forecast”) organized by Manufactured Product stock keeping unit and by quarterly periods, setting forth the quantities of each Manufactured Product that Alliqua expects to purchase from CCT during the three (3) years commencing with the beginning of said month, and

 

(ii)         a twelve (12)-month rolling forecast (“Forecast”) organized by Manufactured Product stock keeping unit and by months, setting forth the quantities of each Manufactured Product that Alliqua expects to purchase from CCT during the twelve (12)-month period commencing with the beginning of said month.

 

(b)          Alliqua shall make all Forecasts and Long Range Forecasts in good faith given market and other information available to Alliqua. Each Forecast shall constitute a binding commitment of Alliqua to purchase at least the percentages of Manufactured Products set forth below pursuant to Firm Orders issued in accordance with Subsection (c) below, notwithstanding any change in the quantity of a Manufactured Product specified in a subsequent Forecast. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, each Forecast shall be non-binding on Alliqua. Each Long Range Forecast shall be non-binding on Alliqua.

(c)          Alliqua shall purchase Manufactured Products solely by Firm Orders for such Manufactured Products. For a given month, CCT will accept Firm Orders for quantities of Manufactured Products, provided such Firm Orders in the aggregate do not exceed [****] of the quantity set forth in the binding portion of the Forecast most recently submitted for such month; provided, however, that if, with respect to any month, Alliqua orders any Manufactured Product in excess of [****] of the quantity set forth in the binding portion of the Forecast most recently submitted for such month, CCT shall make commercially reasonable efforts to supply such excess up to [****] of the quantity set forth in the binding portion of the Forecast most recently submitted for such month, but shall not be liable for its failure to do so. Alliqua shall specify a delivery date in each Firm Order that is at least sixty (60) days after the date on which the Firm Order is submitted to CCT. CCT shall, within five (5) Business Days after CCT receives each Firm Order submitted in accordance with the preceding two sentences, accept in writing such Firm Order. Subject to any other term or condition of this Agreement, Alliqua shall be obligated to purchase, and CCT shall be obligated to deliver by the required delivery date set forth therein, such quantities of each Manufactured Product as are set forth in each Firm Order. If Alliqua requests changes to any Firm Order previously submitted by Alliqua, including any increases or decreases in quantity of Manufactured Products, required delivery date or form of Manufactured Product, CCT shall provide Alliqua a good faith estimate of the anticipated costs of complying with such request. If Alliqua approves such estimated costs in writing, CCT shall use commercially reasonable efforts to comply with such changes but shall not be liable for its failure to do so. In the event that CCT complies with any such request, Alliqua shall reimburse CCT for its commercially reasonable, documented costs incurred in complying with such request. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection (c), during the first six months of Manufactured Product deliveries under this Agreement, CCT shall have no obligation to deliver, nor to accept any portion of a Firm Order requiring it to deliver, more than the following maximum number of Units (by size) per month as follows:

 

  Maximum Deliveries of Units, by Unit
Dimension
[****] [****] [****]
Each of the first three months of Manufactured Product deliveries under this Agreement [****] [****] [****]
Each of the fourth, fifth and sixth months of Manufactured Product deliveries under this Agreement [****] [****] [****]

 

(d)          CCT shall promptly notify Alliqua in writing if at any time CCT has reason to believe that CCT will not be able to (i) fill a Firm Order for any Manufactured Product in accordance with the delivery schedule specified therein by Alliqua and pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Quality Agreement, or (ii) supply Manufactured Products to Alliqua in satisfaction of the most recent Forecast, which notice in either case shall provide Alliqua with information on the extent of the expected shortfall of supply. Upon such notice of a supply shortfall, or in any event upon CCT's failure to satisfy, within the delivery time frame specified by Alliqua, a portion of the Manufactured Products ordered by Alliqua in compliance with this Agreement and the Quality Agreement, Alliqua and CCT will immediately meet and work together in good faith to identify an appropriate resolution to the supply shortfall. Any agreed resolution to the supply shortfall will be set forth in a writing executed by both Parties. Compliance by CCT with this subsection (d) shall not relieve CCT of any other obligation or liability under this Agreement, including any obligation or liability under subsections (e) or (f) below.

(e)          If CCT fails to deliver at least [****] of any Manufactured Products specified in a Firm Order conforming to the provisions of Subsection (c) above by the required delivery date specified therein and in conformity with the applicable Specifications, Alliqua, at its option, may:

 

(i)          cancel all or any portion of such Firm Order with respect to such Manufactured Products, in which event Alliqua shall have no liability with respect to the portion of such Firm Order so cancelled; or

 

(ii)         accept late delivery of all or any portion of such Firm Order with respect to such Manufactured Product, in which event the Purchase Price otherwise payable by Alliqua with respect to all Manufactured Products delivered late and accepted by Alliqua under such Firm Order shall be reduced by [****].

 

(f)          If CCT fails to deliver at least [****] of any Manufactured Products specified in a Firm Order conforming to the provisions of Subsection (c) above by the required delivery date specified therein and in conformity with the applicable Specifications, CCT shall pay to Alliqua any reasonable, documented external expenses incurred by Alliqua resulting from CCT’s breach of its obligation to deliver the full quantity of any Manufactured Product specified in such Firm Order by the required delivery date specified therein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, delivery by CCT of at least [****] of the quantity ordered will be accepted by Alliqua in full satisfaction of CCT’s obligation to supply a Firm Order. Should delivered quantities of Manufactured Product be below [****], CCT will use commercially reasonable efforts to accelerate the subsequent delivery of Manufactured Product, if so requested by Alliqua. Alliqua will be invoiced for the actual quantities shipped, adjusted as provided in Subsection (e)(ii) above. CCT will not be responsible for warehousing Manufactured Product for Alliqua. CCT will make available to Alliqua or Alliqua’s designee, as the case may be, all Manufactured Products upon release.

 

(g)          The remedies provided for in Subsections (e) and (f) above shall be the sole remedies of Alliqua with respect to any single failure by CCT to deliver less than [****] of any Manufactured Product specified in a Firm Order conforming to the provisions of C 2.2(c) by the required delivery date specified therein and in conformity with the applicable Specifications; and the remedy provided for in Section 9.2(b) of the Agreement shall be the sole remedy of Alliqua with respect to the failure of CCT on at least [****] within any [****] period to deliver at least [****] of any Manufactured Products specified in a Firm Order conforming to the provisions of Schedule 2.2, subsection (c) by the required delivery date specified therein and in conformity with the applicable Specifications.

 

(h)          Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, following termination of the Agreement pursuant to Sections 9.2(a) or (b), during the twelve (12) month period commencing on the date notice of termination is given pursuant to either of such Sections (the “Termination Supply Period”), Alliqua may submit Firm Orders for quantities of Manufactured Products in accordance with subsection (c) above, except that the Firm Orders for any month during the last nine (9) months of the Termination Supply Period may not exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the forecasted amount for such nine (9) months in the most recent Forecast provided by Alliqua to CCT prior to such notice of termination.
