1.3                               McKesson may award Supplier a product slot in the OneStop or Multisource Program.  Such award(s) will be completely at McKesson’s sole discretion.  Supplier has no expectation whatsoever that this Agreement guarantees Supplier any product awards.  The execution of this Agreement is a prerequisite to consideration for any product award in McKesson’s OneStop or Multisource Program but is in no way a guarantee that such award will be made.  The Parties agree that the execution of this Agreement will not result in the award of any product purchases from Supplier by McKesson.

 

2.  PRICING

 

2.1                               The Supplier’s price hereunder for the Products specified in Exhibit A shall be identified as OneStop Generics Bid Price (“SSF”) for OneStop products and Multisource Generics Bid Price (“SF”) for Multisource products.  During the term of this Agreement, the Supplier’s SF or SSF price to McKesson for the Products in the Multisource or OneStop Program shall be subject to change from time to time as required by the terms of sale set forth in this Agreement or otherwise to ensure the continued market competitiveness of the Products based on conditions, including but not limited to, the availability of new market SF or SSF prices and bundled and/or comprehensive price bids.  Supplier shall adhere to McKesson’s price change notification policy (“Price Change Policy”), attached hereto as Exhibit C. Supplier shall credit McKesson any lost chargeback, price protection, and/or profit as a result of Supplier’s failure to comply with McKesson’s Price Change Policy.

 

2.2                               Supplier agrees to pay a chargeback (as a credit memo or, at the request of McKesson in connection with the termination of this Agreement, by check) to McKesson in connection with the Multisource and OneStop Programs.  The OneStop chargeback will be based on the difference between the Supplier Invoice price (identified as WAC price) and the SSF price for the Product.  Such chargeback shall be applicable to all sales of Product to McKesson’s OneStop customers.  The Multisource chargeback will be based on the difference between the WAC price and the SF price for the Product.  Such chargeback shall be applicable to all sales of Product to McKesson’s Multisource customers.

 

McKesson agrees to submit Multisource and OneStop chargebacks via EDI following HDMA guidelines for 844 transaction sets.  McKesson’s EDI requirements are attached hereto as Exhibit B.  Supplier agrees to remit payment to McKesson for chargebacks, following HDMA guidelines for 849 transaction sets.  Multisource and OneStop chargebacks will be processed using existing chargeback processes for direct contracts.  In the event Supplier is not able to receive 844 transaction sets or transmit 849 transaction sets and until such time Supplier has the functionality to do so, McKesson will follow existing chargeback

EDI information provided by McKesson to Supplier will include membership information (e.g., customer name, customer address, and valid DEA or HIN number, if available, etc.)  A complete list of customers eligible to purchase under the program will be provided to Supplier, for review and approval, at least ten (10) business days prior to the commencement of the first EDI transaction.  McKesson will provide membership updates to Supplier on a monthly basis throughout the contract period.  Supplier agrees to notify McKesson of any ineligible members within ten (10) days of receipt of the update.  Failure to respond within this period constitutes acceptance by Supplier.  Once reviewed and accepted, Supplier agrees not to dispute Multisource or OneStop chargebacks on the basis of membership information.  Further, in certain circumstances, McKesson may submit Multisource or OneStop chargebacks for new members prior to notification to Supplier.  Supplier agrees not to dispute such Multisource or OneStop chargeback provided that the new member has a valid DEA or HIN number, if available, and is included in and accepted by Supplier in the next monthly membership update.  Supplier agrees to hold membership information in a confidential, secure manner and agrees to use such membership information for the sole purpose of processing chargebacks.  Supplier shall not share confidential membership information with unauthorized third parties.  Should McKesson find that Supplier has used such membership information in an unauthorized manner, then McKesson may, at is sole option, discontinue providing membership information to Supplier upon fifteen (15) days advance written notice.

 

Supplier agrees to provide the appropriate contract ID numbers to be used by McKesson in the 844 transmission at least ten (10) business days prior to the commencement of the first EDI transaction.  A complete list of items eligible for sale on the OneStop and/or Multisource Program, including NDC number, WAC, SF and SSF price, effective at the commencement of this Agreement, will be provided and mutually agreed upon by McKesson and Supplier at least ten (10) business days prior to the commencement of the first EDI transaction.

2.4                               If the Supplier reduces its Wholesale Acquisition Cost (WAC) on any generic pharmaceutical product sold to McKesson, the Supplier will protect McKesson by adjusting the price on floor stocks in McKesson’s possession and the price on stocks in transit on the effective date of change.

 

2.5                               Supplier agrees that for new-to-market product additions, the Net SSF price, as defined below, in effect on the [***] such addition will be applicable to all OneStop Program sales during the first [***].  [***]  McKesson will provide this reporting.

[***]

 

2.6                               In the event that the Supplier decreases the WAC on a Product,

 

(a)                                 the Supplier agrees to adjust the SSF and SF prices immediately and provide documentation five (5) days prior to the effective date of the WAC price decrease.

 

(b)                                 In the event that the Supplier decreases the WAC on a OneStop Product during the first twelve months of the OneStop Award period, as defined below, subject to the terms of this Section 1.0, McKesson shall have, upon written notice to Supplier, [***].  Such monthly charge shall be calculated as follows:

 

[***]

 

The foregoing monthly charge shall be assessed immediately following such reduction and for the remaining months left in the OneStop Award Period or, if shorter, the period between such reduction and the date on which the Product is no longer in the OneStop Program.

2.7                               In the event that the Supplier exercises an SSF price, as defined in Section 2.5, increase of a Product, Supplier will continue to honor the existing SSF price for [***] from the effective date of the price increase or provide an allocation credit equal to [***] of the Supplier’s Product at the prior SSF price.  Any OneStop Product that increases in price is subject to a competitive re-bid and may be removed from the OneStop Program pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement.

 

2.8                               Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, it is understood and agreed between the parties that McKesson during the term of this Agreement may request either a new SF or SSF price in order to respond to various changes in market conditions, including but not limited to the following occurrences:

 

(i)                                     In the event that another supplier proposes a Multisource or OneStop Generics Bid to McKesson that includes, but may not necessarily be limited to, the Supplier’s currently awarded Multisource or OneStop Generics Product(s), and may or may not include a bundled and/or comprehensive net price value, McKesson, at its discretion, may request that the Supplier propose a new Multisource or OneStop Generics Bid on the affected Product(s).

 

McKesson will notify the Supplier of its request for a new SF and/or SSF price and Supplier agrees to respond within five (5) business days with a new SF and/or SSF price or relinquish the Product(s) slot in the OneStop or Multisource Program effective fifteen (15) days after the end of the two day period.  The two-business day time period may be extended by mutual agreement.

 

(ii)                                  In the event that a competitive net acquisition cost from another supplier is discovered in the marketplace on the Supplier’s equivalent Product in the Multisource or OneStop Program, McKesson will request the Supplier to meet or provide a mutually acceptable new Multisource or OneStop Generics Bid price based on the then current net market price for the Product.

 

McKesson at its sole discretion may charge the Supplier a late fee for failing to respond to a Meet Competition Letter (“MCL”) if the Supplier does not respond to such letter by the second business day after said letter

Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein is intended to be or shall be construed as a continuing guarantee, obligation or other commitment by McKesson that Supplier throughout the term hereof shall retain or otherwise be granted a given OneStop or Multisource Product slot award.  Upon any removal of the Supplier’s Product from the OneStop or Multisource Program pursuant to this provision or otherwise, Supplier agrees to honor the existing OneStop or Multisource Generics Bid Price for a maximum of 60 days.

3.3                               This Agreement may be immediately terminated in its entirety by McKesson for cause if Supplier defaults in the performance of any of the terms and conditions hereof and such default continues for a period of fifteen (15) days after written notice from McKesson.

 

3.4                               This Agreement may be immediately terminated by McKesson with respect to a Product if the Supplier fails to deliver the Product as required in Section 2.11 for more than 10 days.

 

3.5                               Failure of the Supplier to either agree to McKesson’s requested new SSF price or negotiate a mutually acceptable new SSF price or agree to propose a new OneStop Generics Bid under the provisions of Section 2.8 hereof shall not be deemed a default for the purposes of Section 3.3 above; provided however, in the event of such occurrence, McKesson reserves the right in its sole discretion to re-assign the Product(s) to another supplier on fifteen (15) days’ written notice to the Supplier.

4.             PERFORMANCE LEVELS

 

If the Supplier’s Product in the OneStop Program is out of stock due to no fault of McKesson and must be substituted with another generic product from another supplier due to non-performance by the Supplier, the price differential between the out of stock Product’s OneStop Generics [***] and the substituted product’s Net Acquisition Cost, as defined below, will be charged back to the Supplier.  Supplier agrees to pay such chargeback amount within thirty (30) days of the date of invoice for such sum from McKesson.  Supplier shall not be held liable for any reimbursement for more than sixty (60) days from the date Supplier notifies McKesson in writing of its intent to remove the Product from the OneStop Program or McKesson secures anther alternate supplier, whichever occurs first.

 

[***]

 

Net Acquisition Cost shall be defined as competitor’s WAC price less any Multisource chargebacks.

B =                             Total quantity of Supplier’s Product not shipped by McKesson to its OneStop customers.

 

5.2                               McKesson agrees to maintain a [***] Raw Service Level (as defined above) on each Supplier’s OneStop Generics Product award shipped to a McKesson OneStop customer.  If such Service Level falls below [***] for [***] (“Service Level Deficiency”) due to Supplier’s inability to supply McKesson said Product and at no fault of McKesson, Supplier shall pay McKesson a sum equal to [***] of the historical [***] average of Total Net Product Sales, as defined below, occurring during the [***] period preceding the Service Level Deficiency.  For purposes hereof, Total Net Product Sales shall mean the total units of sales of said Product through all McKesson distribution centers, inclusive of OneStop Generics, Multisource and Contract sales, multiplied by the then current WAC price for the Product.  For each subsequent week that said Product remains in the OneStop Generics Program and the Raw Service Level for such Product remains less than [***] Supplier shall pay to McKesson an additional sum of [***] of the historical weekly average of Total Net Product Sales occurring during the sixty (60) day period preceding the Service Level Deficiency.  Failure to either maintain adequate inventory sufficient to maintain the agreed upon [***] Service Level or to pay any Service Level penalty as required hereunder shall constitute a default under this Agreement by the Supplier.

 

5.3                               For Product that has been on long-term backorder of thirty (30) days or more and causes noticeable Service Level Omits (e.g. Product appears on the OneStop Service Level Omit Report or Pre-Omit Report), when the Product comes off of backorder, Supplier agrees to ship and incur the expense of delivering available inventory, up to [***] of aggregate McKesson demand for Product, directly to the McKesson Forward Distribution Centers (“FDCs”) via overnight next day delivery.

6.1                               In the event that Supplier provides a customer [***] a Net Price (as defined below) for any Product that is more favorable than the Net OneStop Contract Price (as defined below) offered to McKesson, then Supplier shall offer McKesson the same Net Price, effective from and after the date Supplier provides such more favorable Net Price.  However, in the event that McKesson discovers Supplier did not comply with the foregoing obligations for any Product, Supplier shall, in addition to offering the lower Net Price as required in the immediately preceding sentence, from and after the date McKesson notifies Supplier  of such discovery, provide McKesson a credit based on the number of OneStop units of such Product sold (net of returns) during the [***] prior to the date on which

McKesson notifies Supplier of such discovery multiplied by the difference in Net OneStop Contract Price and the lower Net Price.

 

6.2                               For purposes of Section 6, “Net Price” shall mean, with respect to any Product, the price provided by Supplier for such Product to a customer [***].

(i)                                     McKesson may audit and inspect a sample of up to fifty (50) items for purposes of verifying McKesson’s Net OneStop Contract Price versus the Net Price offered by Supplier to any customer in any class of trade.  For purposes of this section, an item refers to a distinct NDC number.

 

(ii)                                  McKesson agrees to conduct such audits and inspections at its sole expense.  Any such audit or inspection shall be performed by a mutually agreed upon third-party auditor.  Any third party auditor conducting such audit will be required to execute a confidentiality agreement in the form reasonably acceptable to Supplier.  In no event shall any such audit or inspection relate to any transaction or event which occurred more than twelve (12) months prior to the date of such audit or inspection.

 

(iii)                               McKesson’s audit rights contained in this section shall survive termination of this Agreement for a period of one (1) year.

 

7.                                      FORCE MAJEURE

 

The obligations of the parties hereunder (except for the obligation to pay money) shall be suspended by the occurrence of any unforeseeable event beyond the reasonable control of the parties, such as acts of God, war, mobilization, riot, sabotage, explosion, fire or other casualty, power failure, labor disturbances, or law or regulation restricting performance; provided, however, that each party shall take reasonable measures to remove the disability and resume operations at the earliest possible date.

McKesson Price Change Policy and Procedures

 

Suppliers are required to sell product to McKesson at the supplier’s published prices or wholesale acquisition cost (WAC) in effect on the date of McKesson’s purchase order.  All WAC or cost price notifications should be sent to McKesson electronically using a dedicated email box (see address below).  Pricing is not managed at McKesson’s distribution centers and should not be sent to any McKesson distribution center.

 

All Non-Program Generic Rx WAC Price Notifications Are To Be Sent Electronically To

Suppliers unable to send pricing electronically may send via fax using the

following fax number exclusively:  Fax ###-###-####

***@***

 

Generic Rx Suppliers unable to send pricing electronically may send via fax

using the following fax number exclusively:  Fax ###-###-####

 

GENERIC Rx Price Changes

 

Price change notifications shall be sent at least one day prior to effective date.  Currently, McKesson’s systems cannot implement SAME day price changes, thus, it is important to send price notifications at least one day prior to the effective date.  All price change notifications will need to be received no later than 1:00 p.m, PST to be implemented with an effective date of next business day.   Notifications received after this cut-off time will require an additional day to be processed.

 

Additionally, McKesson’s current system cannot handle price changes with an effective date which falls on a Sunday or Monday.  Price change notifications received on non-business days, holidays and weekends will be processed the next business day.

 

Supplier shall credit McKesson for any lost chargeback, price protection, and/or profit as a result of Supplier’s failure to comply with McKesson’s Price Change Policy.
