7.MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.
7.1Contacting Sponsors, Members or Media. Provider hereby agrees (and shall cause its affiliates, employees, independent contractors, shareholders, members, officers, directors and agents to agree) that it shall not, directly or indirectly, verbally or in writing: (i) engage in any contact or outreach to any Sponsor and/or Sponsor’s Member; (ii) make any public statements, including, but not limited to, statements to the media, press releases, postings to any social media site, publishing information on the internet, or otherwise disseminating information regarding this Agreement, ESI, ESI’s Sponsors, or ESI’s services without the prior consent of ESI; or (iii) take any action which is intended to or would be expected to harm ESI or ESI’s reputation, or which could reasonably be expected to lead to unwanted or unfavorable publicity relating to ESI or ESI’s services.

Further, Provider acknowledges and agrees that any breach of this Section 7.1 by Provider (or any affiliate, employee, independent contractor, shareholder, member, officer, director or agent) would cause ESI immediate and irreparable injury or loss that cannot be fully remedied by monetary damages. Accordingly, in the event of a breach of this Section 7.1 by Provider (or any affiliate, employee, independent contractor, shareholder, member, officer, director or agent), ESI shall be entitled to specific performance, including immediate issuance of a temporary restraining order or preliminary injunction enforcing the terms of this Agreement, and to judgment for damages (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) caused by the breach, and to all other legal and equitable remedies available to ESI.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, ESI may give notice to Provider (or any Pharmacy) via its online claims system or in any remittance advice.
7.3Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including any applicable rate sheets, exhibits, amendments, appendices, Provider Certification, the Express Scripts, Inc. State of Washington Pharmacy Provider Agreement for Washington State Sponsors (if applicable), addenda (including the Medicare Part D Addendum), Provider Manual, and any requirements of a Sponsor’s Prescription Drug Program communicated to Provider constitutes the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter herein and, upon execution by the parties, supersedes all prior oral or written agreements between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. With the exceptions of federal, state and/or Sponsor-­specific requirements as set forth in the appendices of the Provider Manual, in the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Provider Manual, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, solely with respect to services rendered in the state of New York under this Agreement to any Member of any Prescription Drug Program offered by a Sponsor that is certified as a managed care organization under Article 44 of the New York State Public Health Law, in the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Provider Manual, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.
7.4Amendment. Unless prohibited or modified by existing law, ESI may amend any term, part or provision of this Agreement, including without limitation, any exhibits, requirements for participation, schedules, amendments, or addenda (including an amendment required due to a change in law, rule or regulation), by giving written notice to Provider at least ten (10) calendar days prior to the Effective Date of the amendment ("Notice Period"). Provider shall be deemed to have accepted such amendment in the event it fails to provide written notice of its objection to ESI prior to the expiration of the Notice Period. If Provider continues to submit claims after the effective date of any proposed amendment, then such amendment will be deemed approved and accepted by Provider as if Provider had given its express written consent thereto, and such amendment shall automatically become a part of this Agreement. In the event Provider rejects such amendment in accordance herewith, then Provider may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice of such election to ESI on or before the expiration of the Notice Period, and such termination shall be effective ninety (90) days from the expiration of the Notice Period. In the event Provider rejects such amendment but does not terminate this Agreement on or before the expiration of the Notice Period, then the amendment will be deemed approved and accepted by Provider as if Provider had given its express written consent thereto, and such amendment shall automatically become a part of this Agreement and take effect as of the expiration of the Notice Period. Solely with respect to changes that affect Provider compensation, in the event Provider rejects the proposed amendment, then Provider and ESI agree to negotiate up to thirty (30) days in good faith a mutually agreeable resolution (“Good Faith Negotiations”). In the event parties cannot come to a mutually agreeable resolution, then ESI reserves the right to proceed with implementation of the amendment upon expiration of the Good Faith Negotiations period, or Provider may terminate this Agreement in accordance with this Section 7.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, and only to the extent a signature is required or requested by ESI, the parties acknowledge and agree that any contract document, including, but not limited to, rate exhibits, schedules, letters of agreement, etc., proposed by ESI and executed by Provider hereafter shall automatically become incorporated into this Agreement without the necessity of a formal amendment.
7.5Assignment. No part of this Agreement may be assigned by Provider without ESI's prior written consent. Provider acknowledges and agrees that ESI, without consent of Provider, may assign all or any part of this Agreement and/or ESI's rights, privileges or duties under this Agreement.
7.6Force Majeure. Any party’s delay in, or failure of, performance under this Agreement shall be excused where such delay or failure is the result of causes that are beyond the reasonable control of the affected party, including acts of God (e.g., nature, fire, flood, etc.), terrorism, war, civil disturbance, court order, governmental intervention, epidemic, pandemic, failures or fluctuations in electrical power, heat, light, air conditioning, computer, software, communications, transmission or mechanical failure, work stoppage, delays or failure to

In such an event, the parties will use commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance as soon as reasonably possible under the circumstances giving rise to the party’s failure to perform. Both ESI and Provider will use joint communication and resources to assist the other party in the event of a Force Majeure.
7.7Headings. The article and section headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience only and will in no manner be construed as part of this Agreement.

7.9Waiver. No waiver of a breach of any covenant or condition shall be construed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach. No act, delay, or omission done, suffered, or permitted by the parties shall be deemed to exhaust or impair any right, remedy, or power of the parties hereunder.
7.10Severability. Should any provision of this Agreement be held or ruled unenforceable or ineffective under the law, such a ruling will in no way affect the validity or enforceability of any other clause or provision contained herein.
7.11Non-Competition.

7.12Dispute Resolution. Except as provided herein, prior to either party pursuing any litigation in connection with this Agreement, both parties agree to meet in good faith to resolve any claim or controversy (“Claim”), whether under federal or state statutory or common law, brought by either ESI or the Provider against the other, or against the employee, members, agents or assigns of the other, arising from or relating in any way to the interpretation or performance of this Agreement. The aggrieved party shall notify the other party of its Claim providing sufficient detail to permit the other party to respond. The parties agree to meet and confer in good faith to resolve any Claims that may arise under this Agreement for a period of not less than thirty (30) days. In the event the parties cannot resolve any Claims pursuant to Good Faith Discussions and the minimum 30-day period has been met, then the aggrieved party may end discussions with the other party by providing written notice to the other party of its intent to cease discussions. Thereafter, the parties may proceed to litigation. Good Faith Discussion and the 30-day notice period do not apply to Claims by either party solely seeking immediate injunctive relief. The prevailing party on any Claim(s) seeking injunctive relief relating to the term or termination of this Agreement shall be entitled to its reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs. All litigation between the parties arising out of or related in any way to the interpretation or performance of the Agreement shall be litigated in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, or, as to those lawsuits to which the Federal Court lacks jurisdiction, before a court located in St. Louis County, Missouri. The parties agree that Claims shall not be consolidated or coordinated in any action with the Claim of any other individual or entity. No Claim or other dispute may be litigated on a coordinated, class, mass, or consolidated basis. No Claim may be brought as a private attorney general.
7.13Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original and together will constitute one and the same Agreement. Facsimile execution and delivery of this Agreement is legal, valid and binding execution and delivery for all purposes.

(“ESI”) and Provider for the network configurations described herein.

1.1“ESI MAC” means the maximum allowable cost for such drugs as determined by ESI. The items and their prices will be updated by ESI from time to time at its sole discretion.
1.2“Rate Effective Date” means the last date upon which ESI accepts and processes this Exhibit.
2.Provider Reimbursement for Covered Medications.
2.1For Covered Medications dispensed to Members under this Exhibit, Provider shall receive reimbursement equal to the lowest of the following (subject to the overall annual Average Discounts and Dispense Fees set forth in Section 2.4 as further described below):
(a)the Provider's Usual and Customary Retail Price;
(b)the applicable AWP discount plus applicable dispensing fee as set forth in Section 2.4
(or per the applicable Supplemental Schedule);

(e)state fee schedule (if applicable).
2.2The parties acknowledge and agree that more than one AWP discount and/or dispense fee may be in effect and applied from time to time to claims submitted by Provider under the terms of this Exhibit. The annual effective Average Discount and Dispense Fee guarantees specified below in Section 2.4 are not Sponsor-­specific claims adjudication rates. Rather, claims shall be adjudicated by ESI based on the applicable Supplemental Schedule referenced below in Section 2.3, provided, ESI shall be obligated to manage to the overall annual effective rate guarantees as referenced below in Section 2.4 on an aggregate basis for its applicable book of business. The overall Average Discount and Dispense Fee for any given Year shall ultimately be the AWP discount and dispense fee set forth in the Contract Rates table for the applicable Schedule as set forth below in Section 2.4. The overall Average Discounts and Dispense Fees set forth in Section 2.4 of this Exhibit (with the exception of Schedule MEDD) (the "Commercial Aggregate") plus the overall average Transaction Fee set forth in the Agreement, as applicable, for claims submitted under the terms of all commercial (non-Medicare) rate sheets under the Agreement shall be calculated in aggregate based on ESI's entire applicable book of business. As applicable, the Schedule MEDD overall Average Discount and Dispense Fee set forth in Section 2.4 of this Exhibit shall be calculated in aggregate for ESI’s entire applicable book of business (the “Med D Aggregate”). The Commercial Aggregate and the Med D Aggregate, as applicable, shall not themselves be aggregated; and the Commercial Aggregate and the Med D Aggregate, as applicable, shall not be aggregated at a Sponsor-specific level.
2.3ESI shall establish and maintain specific reimbursement rate schedules (each, a “Supplemental Schedule”, and collectively, the “Supplemental Schedules”), which shall not require Provider signature for each particular Supplemental Schedule, and shall constitute the applicable AWP Discounts and Dispense Fees applied to the adjudicated prescription drug claims related to a particular Sponsor, or group of Sponsors and which Sponsor(s) may or may not be individually listed on a Supplemental Schedule. Each Supplemental Schedule is incorporated herein by reference. The form of the Supplemental Schedule template to be used generally by ESI is set forth on Supplement A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference.
