Schedule 3
Schedule 3: Tender Process 1.
1.1
General
Sole Supply Period and Hospital Supply Status Period
(a) Hospital Tender Bids are to be submitted on the basis that if your Hospital Tender Bid is accepted, you will have Hospital Supply Status for the particular Tender Item for the Hospital Supply Status Period. Community Tender Bids are to be submitted on the basis that if your Community Tender Bid is accepted, you will have Sole Supply Status for the particular Tender Item for the Sole Supply Period. Combined Tender Bids are to be submitted on the basis that if your Combined Tender Bid is accepted, you will have Hospital Supply Status for the particular Tender Item for the Hospital Supply Status Period and Sole Supply Status for the particular Tender Item for the Sole Supply Period.
(b)
(c)
1.2
HSS Renewed Term
Hospital Tender Bids and Combined Tender Bids are to be submitted on the basis that if that Tender Bid is accepted and PHARMAC, with your prior written consent, chooses to extend the Hospital Supply Status Period for the HSS Renewed Term, you will have Hospital Supply Status for that HSS Renewed Term for the particular Tender Item at the Price.
1.3
Transition Periods
(a) In relation to hospital supply: (i) there will be two Transition Periods (the First Transition Period and the Final Transition Period) during which the successful tenderer’s brand is to be available for supply and purchased by DHB Hospitals; the First Transition Period is intended to allow for an orderly transition to the arrangements that will apply during the Hospital Supply Status Period; the Final Transition Period is intended to allow for an orderly transition to any new arrangements following the end of the Hospital Supply Status Period; DHB Hospitals may purchase DV Pharmaceuticals at any time within the First Transition Period and Final Transition Period without any requirement to comply with the DV Limit.
(ii)
(iii)
(iv)
(b)
Subject to paragraph (d) below, in relation to community supply: (i) there will be three Transition Periods (the First Transition Period, the Second Transition Period and the Final Transition Period) during which the successful tenderer’s brand is to be available for supply and subsidised, but may not be the sole subsidised brand of that Tender Item;
R30-4-0 #68366
54
Schedule 3
(ii)
the First Transition Period and Second Transition Period are intended to allow for an orderly transition to the arrangements that will apply during the Sole Supply Period; the Final Transition Period is intended to allow for an orderly transition to any new arrangements following the end of the Sole Supply Period.
(iii)
(c)
In relation to community and/or hospital supply, PHARMAC may, in its sole discretion: (i) determine a different commencement date for the First Transition Period and/or Second Transition Period, as applicable, including where it considers that a different commencement date is necessary to ensure appropriate stock management or appropriate supply of the Tender Item; and/or extend the period of the First Transition Period and/or Second Transition Period, as applicable, by determining a different end date, and may do so before or after the commencement date of the relevant First Transition Period or Second Transition Period. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that PHARMAC extends the Second Transition Period under this clause 1.5(c)(ii): (A) the delisting of all other brands of that form and strength of the Chemical Entity is to be deferred until the actual commencement date of the Sole Supply Period, notwithstanding any date previously notified to suppliers by PHARMAC as being the intended date of delisting; all other brands of that form and strength of the Chemical Entity are to remain listed in accordance with the terms of any existing contract between PHARMAC and the particular pharmaceutical supplier in respect of the relevant brand(s) until such time as that supplier’s brand of that form and strength of the Chemical Entity is actually delisted.
(ii)
(B)
(d)
In relation to community supply, if the successful tenderer’s brand is the only brand of the Tender Item listed on the Pharmaceutical Schedule as at the time PHARMAC notifies the market that a Tender has been accepted for a Tender Item, then the First Transition Period and clauses 2.1(a) and 5.4 of Schedule Six will not apply and, subject to paragraph (c) above, the Second Transition Period is to begin on the first day of the second month following the date of such notification. For the avoidance of doubt, any notification by PHARMAC of the delisting of all other brands of that form and strength of the Chemical Entity on the first day of the Sole Supply Period operates solely as advance notice of the intended delisting of those pharmaceuticals and does not constitute a notice of termination of any existing contract for the supply of those other brands.
(e)
1.4
Contract
If PHARMAC accepts your: (a) Community Tender Bid, then a contract on the terms and conditions set out in: (i) your Tender Bid (incorporating any variations as a result of negotiations or discussions under clause 1.7 of this Schedule); and Schedule Six; and if PHARMAC accepts a Foreign Exchange Bid from you, Schedule Nine, 55

(B)
(C)
will be deemed to have been entered into between you and PHARMAC for Sole Supply Status for the relevant Pharmaceutical and, where applicable, its listing on the Pharmaceutical Schedule. For the avoidance of doubt, the terms and conditions specified in Schedule Five, Schedule Six and Schedule Nine, as applicable, apply from the date when PHARMAC notifies you in accordance with clause 7.2 of this Schedule of its acceptance of your Tender Bid, and do not apply solely for the Sole Supply Period or Hospital Supply Status Period, as applicable.

(ii)
7.2

(a) Once PHARMAC’s board of directors (or chief executive, where applicable) has decided under clause 7.1 above which Tender Bid (if any) to accept for a Tender Item, PHARMAC will, within a reasonable period of time, notify the successful tenderer in writing that it has been successful and in addition: (i) subject to paragraph (b) below, if the successful Tender Bid is unconditionally accepted, PHARMAC will, within a reasonable period of time, notify each unsuccessful tenderer in writing of the identity of the successful tenderer; or subject to paragraph (b) below, if the successful Tender Bid is conditionally accepted, PHARMAC will, within a reasonable period of time of that tender becoming unconditionally accepted, notify each unsuccessful tenderer in writing of the identity of the successful tenderer.

7.3
PHARMAC’s rights reserved
(a) PHARMAC reserves the right to accept or reject any Tender Bid, and is not obliged to give reasons for its decision. While it is PHARMAC’s current intention, unless specified otherwise in Schedule Two, to enter into an agreement to award Hospital Supply Status and/or Sole Supply Status for each Tender Item, PHARMAC will not in any circumstances be bound to accept any or all Tender Bids and, in particular, PHARMAC will not be bound to accept the lowest or any other Tender Bid for a Tender Item. Acceptance only occurs if, and when, PHARMAC’s board of directors (or chief executive, where applicable) resolves to accept a Tender Bid and this acceptance is notified to the successful tenderer. PHARMAC may take any action, including making any adjustments to the tender process that it considers appropriate, or do anything, that is incidental to the process described in this Invitation, at any time during the process, except to the extent that such action is explicitly precluded by this Invitation.

the contract referred to in clause 1.4 of Schedule Three will be conditional upon such Consents being received within a time period specified by PHARMAC; and PHARMAC may terminate the contract if such Consents have not been obtained, or in PHARMAC’s view are unlikely to be obtained, within the period specified by PHARMAC.
(ii)
(b)
Acceptance of a Tender Bid by PHARMAC’s board of directors (or chief executive, where applicable), and the contract referred to in clause 1.4 of Schedule Three, may be conditional upon you satisfying PHARMAC that you will have sufficient stock of the Tender Item available to commence supply as at a date reasonably determined by PHARMAC.

8.1
Additional terms for back-up supply
Community Back-up Supply Bids
Where a Tender Item is indicated in Schedule Two as being an item that may require a contract for Community Back-up Supply Status, then in addition to, or instead of, submitting a bid for Sole Supply Status for that Tender Item, you may submit a Community Back-up Supply Bid.
8.2
Hospital Back-up Supply Proposals
(a) Where a Tender Item is indicated in Schedule Two as being an item that may require a contract for Hospital Back-up Supply Status, then in addition to, or instead of, submitting a bid for Hospital Supply Status for that Tender Item, you may submit a Hospital Backup Supply Proposal. This request to submit a Hospital Back-up Supply Proposal is a request for proposals and is not an invitation to tender. Any such proposal you make is not an offer capable of being converted into a contract by PHARMAC’s apparent acceptance and instead a separate agreement needs to be negotiated in accordance with the process outlined in clause 8.9 of Schedule Three.
(b)
8.3
Terms applicable to Back-up Supply
(a) If you submit a Community Back-up Supply Bid for a Tender Item, the terms applicable to (and the process to be followed by PHARMAC for) a bid for Sole Supply Status in this Invitation will apply equally to the Community Back-up Supply Bid as if the Community Back-up Supply Bid was a Tender Bid, except as expressly stated in this clause 8. If you submit a Hospital Back-up Supply Proposal for a Tender Item the minimum terms applicable to (and the process to be followed by PHARMAC for) a proposal for Hospital Back-up Supply Status are as follows: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) Schedule One; Schedule Two; clause 2 (Information about submitting a Tender Bid) of Schedule Three; clause 3 (What to include in your Offer Letter and Tender Submission Form) of Schedule Three; 66

(a) PHARMAC may amend the relevant list of DV Pharmaceuticals specified in Section H of the Pharmaceutical Schedule, from time to time, in accordance with this clause 2.4, whereby: (i) PHARMAC is only to remove a pharmaceutical listed as a DV Pharmaceutical if PHARMAC has a direction from Medsafe or its successor, or a recommendation from HPAC, PTAC or its sub-committees, based on a significant clinical issue; PHARMAC may add a pharmaceutical to the relevant list of DV Pharmaceuticals specified in Section H of the Pharmaceutical schedule if such pharmaceutical is identified as a DV Pharmaceutical during the Hospital Supply Status Period or the First Transition Period by PHARMAC following a recommendation from HPAC, PTAC or its sub-committees.

DV Limit Compliance
(a) For the purposes of this clause 2.6: (i) “Relevant Period” means: (A) the initial period starting on the day that the Hospital Supply Status Period begins up to and including 30 June 2004; or the period commencing on 1 July 2004 and ending on 30 June 2005; or if PHARMAC renews the term of the Hospital Supply Status Period for the Pharmaceutical for the HSS Renewed Term in accordance with clause 2.3 of this Schedule, the period commencing on 1 July 2005 and ending on 30 June 2006,
(B) (C)
provided that for the purposes of carrying out the calculations in this clause 2.6 any calendar months that fall within those periods when there is any failure to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement will be excluded. (ii) “Actual National DV Limit Indicator” means, for a particular Pharmaceutical in any Relevant Period, such sum, expressed as a percentage, as is equal to: (Total DV Pharmaceuticals Volume ÷ (Total DV Pharmaceuticals Volume + Total Pharmaceutical Volume)) x 100; (iii) “Total DV Pharmaceuticals Volume” means, for a particular Pharmaceutical in any Relevant Period, the total number of Units of all DV Pharmaceuticals of the relevant Pharmaceutical with Hospital Supply Status purchased by DHB Hospitals, as calculated by PHARMAC, following your request in accordance with clause 2.6(b) below, on the basis of the electronic records used by it; and “Total Pharmaceutical Volume” means, for a particular Pharmaceutical with Hospital Supply Status in any Relevant Period, the total number of Units of that Pharmaceutical purchased by DHB Hospitals, as calculated by PHARMAC following your request in accordance with clause 2.6(b) below, on the basis of the electronic records used by it.
(iv)
(b)
If you reasonably believe that DHB Hospitals’ percentage usage of DV Pharmaceuticals collectively exceeds the National DV Limit for a particular Pharmaceutical, you may at any time, but not more often than three-monthly, request that PHARMAC carry out calculations in accordance with the procedure set out in this clause 2.6 for the proportion of the Relevant Period that has passed to the date of your request, and PHARMAC may, in its discretion, agree to carry out the calculations for the Total DV Pharmaceuticals Volume, the Total Pharmaceutical Volume and the Actual National DV Limit Indicator, provided that if PHARMAC refuses to carry out such calculations, it will provide you with the reasons for refusing to do so. It is acknowledged, for the avoidance of doubt, that if the Actual National DV Limit Indicator is less than the National DV Limit specified for the relevant Chemical Entity in Schedule Two then, regardless of whether an individual DHB Hospital’s percentage usage of DV Pharmaceuticals has exceeded the National DV Limit percentage for that Pharmaceutical, PHARMAC may decide, in its sole discretion, not to take any further action.
(c)
R30-4-0 #68366
83
Schedule 5
(d)
If the Actual National DV Limit Indicator is greater than the National DV Limit, PHARMAC will use its best endeavours to identify which individual DHB Hospitals’ percentage usage of DV Pharmaceuticals have exceeded the Individual DV Limit percentage for that Pharmaceutical. You acknowledge that if PHARMAC cannot do this on the basis of information held by it, it may be necessary to obtain any further information you can provide. If neither of us can establish or quantify non-compliance by an individual DHB Hospital with the Individual DV Limit, then you acknowledge that PHARMAC may not be able to calculate and obtain financial compensation for you under clause 2.6(f)(ii) below. In that event you acknowledge, for the avoidance of doubt, that PHARMAC is not liable to pay any financial compensation on behalf of the relevant DHB. If an individual DHB Hospital’s percentage usage of DV Pharmaceuticals has exceeded the Individual DV Limit percentage for that Pharmaceutical as a result of DV Pharmaceutical usage that has been agreed to by you in accordance with clause 2.5(b)(iv) above then PHARMAC will not take any further action. Subject to paragraph (e) above, PHARMAC will address the issue of non-compliance with any individual DHB Hospital or DHB Hospitals identified in accordance with paragraph (d) above by: (i) using its best endeavours to ensure that the relevant DHB Hospital complies with the DV Limit for that Pharmaceutical in the remainder of that Relevant Period (if applicable) and in any subsequent Relevant Period or Relevant Periods; and/or following the end of a Relevant Period, and only once in respect of any Relevant Period, requiring financial compensation by that DHB for its contribution towards exceeding the National DV Limit (where PHARMAC is able to quantify this based on the information available to it), being the greater amount of $5,000 or such sum as is equal to: DHB Deviation x Adjusted Price where: (A) “Adjusted Price” means the Unit Price, for a particular Pharmaceutical in any Relevant Period, divided by two; “DHB Deviation” is equal to: (Total Contribution for DHBx ÷ Total Contribution for Exceeding DHBs) x Total DV Pharmaceuticals Volume in Excess of DV Limit where: “Total Contribution for DHBx” means, for: (a) (b) a particular Pharmaceutical; and a particular DHB Hospital,
(e)
(f)
(ii)
(B)
in any Relevant Period, the total number of Units of all DV Pharmaceuticals of the relevant Pharmaceutical with Hospital Supply Status purchased by that DHB Hospital minus the number of Units of DV Pharmaceuticals that corresponds to the percentage of the Individual Total Market Volume represented by the Individual DV Limit percentage for that Pharmaceutical,
R30-4-0 #68366
84
Schedule 5
as calculated by PHARMAC for such Relevant Period on the basis of the electronic records used by it; “Total Contribution for Exceeding DHBs” means, for a particular Pharmaceutical in any Relevant Period, the sum of the Total Contribution for DHBx for each DHB Hospital identified by PHARMAC in accordance with paragraph (d) above as exceeding the Individual DV Limit for that Relevant Period, as calculated by PHARMAC for such Relevant Period on the basis of the electronic records used by it; “Total DV Pharmaceuticals Volume in Excess of DV Limit” means, for a particular Pharmaceutical in any Relevant Period, the total number of Units of all DV Pharmaceuticals of the relevant Pharmaceutical with Hospital Supply Status purchased by DHB Hospitals in excess of the National DV Limit for that Relevant Period, as calculated by PHARMAC on the basis of the electronic records used by it; (iii) PHARMAC will seek payment of any DV Limit compensation payable in accordance with clause 2.6(f)(ii) above from the relevant DHB, and will forward that sum to you as soon as reasonably practicable following receipt from the relevant DHB. If PHARMAC has not received the amount of any DV Limit compensation payable in accordance with clause 2.6(f)(ii) above from the DHB within 60 business days of notifying that DHB of the amount owing, then you may take such actions (other than ceasing to supply) directly with the DHB as you consider appropriate to recover the amount owing to you. In that event you acknowledge, for the avoidance of doubt, that PHARMAC is not liable to pay any financial compensation on behalf of the relevant DHB. For the avoidance of doubt, for the purposes of calculating the Total DV Pharmaceuticals Volume, the Total Contribution for DHB x and the Total DV Pharmaceuticals Volume in Excess of DV Limit in this clause 2.6, if a pharmaceutical is added to, or removed from, the list of DV Pharmaceuticals during the Relevant Period in accordance with clause 2.4 of this Schedule, then only the number of Units of that pharmaceutical purchased by DHB Hospitals during the portion of the Relevant Period in which that pharmaceutical was a DV Pharmaceutical are to be included in those calculations.

Supply arrangements after the End Date
(a) Subject to paragraph (b) below, the Pharmaceutical is to continue to be the subject of a listing agreement between you and PHARMAC with effect from the End Date, and accordingly: (i) you will cease to have Hospital Supply Status for that form and strength of the Pharmaceutical; the Pharmaceutical will remain listed in Section H of the Pharmaceutical Schedule subject to PHARMAC’s standard terms of supply for pharmaceuticals used in DHB Hospitals (as recorded in the then current Annex Three of PHARMAC’s standard hospital contract template); you may increase the price (exclusive of GST) at which you supply the Pharmaceutical to, at a DHB Hospital’s discretion, any Designated Delivery Points, and/or Contract Manufacturers (expressly for the purpose of compounding), on giving PHARMAC six months’ written notice of that price 85

You may provide PHARMAC with this written notice at any time after, but not before, the End Date; (iv) you may withdraw the Pharmaceutical from supply on not less than two years’ prior written notice (except where the withdrawal is for reasons that PHARMAC considers to be wholly outside of your control, in which case you must first provide to PHARMAC such information as it may require from you in order to satisfy it, in its sole discretion, that you are required to withdraw supply); and if at the time of providing notice under paragraph (a)(iii) above, you advise PHARMAC that you are required to purchase a significant quantity of extra stock of the Pharmaceutical to enable you to continue to supply for the two-year period, and you advise PHARMAC of the total cost of that stock, PHARMAC will either: (A) use reasonable endeavours to enter into an agreement to reimburse you for stock that remains unsold at the end of that two-year period; or release you from your obligations to supply under this paragraph (a).
(v)
(B) (b)
PHARMAC may, at its sole discretion, with effect from the End Date: (i) require that the Pharmaceutical does not continue to be the subject of a listing agreement, in which case PHARMAC will give you written notice not less than three months prior to the End Date; and/or apply any of the strategies under PHARMAC’s then current OPPs to the Pharmaceutical (including delisting the Pharmaceutical after the Final Transition Period).

Withdrawal of Hospital Supply Status
(a) PHARMAC may withdraw Hospital Supply Status in relation to your supply of the Pharmaceutical (in which case clauses 2.1, 2.2, 2 and 2.4 of this Schedule will no .3 longer apply), by written notice to you at any time during the Hospital Supply Status Period or (in anticipation) during the First Transition Period if: (i) you have failed to notify PHARMAC as required under clause 8.1 of this Schedule; you fail, for a period of 30 days, to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement to any of the DHB Hospitals including to, at a DHB Hospital’s discretion, any Designated Delivery Points, and/or Contract Manufacturers (expressly for the purpose of compounding); any Consent for the Pharmaceutical required under clause 3 of this Schedule is withdrawn; you have failed to comply with clause 7 of this Schedule on more than one occasion; or you otherwise fail to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement.

2.1
Effect of Sole Supply Status
Subsidy arrangements
(a) The Pharmaceutical will be subsidised, and you must supply it, during the First Transition Period: (i) if the Pharmaceutical is already listed, at the price at which it was subsidised at the commencement of the First Transition Period; if the Pharmaceutical is not already listed, but other brands of the Chemical Entity are listed, at the reference price for the therapeutic sub-group of which the Pharmaceutical is a member as at the date of listing; or if no brand of the Chemical Entity is listed, at the Price.
(ii)
(iii) (b)
The subsidy payable for the Pharmaceutical will be changed to the Price on the first day of the Second Transition Period and the subsidy payable for all other brands of that form and strength of the Chemical Entity that are listed will be changed accordingly. All other brands of that form and strength of the Chemical Entity will be delisted on the first day of the Sole Supply Period, with the result that you will have Sole Supply Status for that form and strength of the Chemical Entity during the Sole Supply Period. The Pharmaceutical will continue to be fully subsidised at the Price throughout the Second Transition Period and, subject to PHARMAC’s other rights under this Agreement in relation to the Pharmaceutical, throughout the Sole Supply Period. Subject to PHARMAC’s other rights under this Agreement in relation to the Pharmaceutical, the Pharmaceutical will not be delisted during the Final Transition Period.

Exclusivity for the Sole Supply Period
(a) Subject to PHARMAC’s other rights under this Agreement in relation to the Pharmaceutical, PHARMAC will not subsidise another supplier’s brand of the Pharmaceutical on the Pharmaceutical Schedule at any time during the Sole Supply Period. This clause does not prohibit PHARMAC from entering into negotiations or arrangements with, or inviting tenders from, other suppliers to be the sole subsidised supplier of any forms and strengths of the Chemical Entity, if such supply commences after the end of the Sole Supply Period. For the avoidance of doubt, PHARMAC may lower the subsidy applicable to a Pharmaceutical during the Final Transition Period as it sees fit, including lowering the subsidy of a Pharmaceutical as a result of the implementation of new tender arrangements.

(ii)
(iii) (iv) (b)
Any withdrawal of Sole Supply Status is without prejudice to PHARMAC’s rights under clauses 5.2 and 5.3 of this Schedule.
2.4
Suspension of Sole Supply Status
(a) If, at any time during the Sole Supply Period or (in anticipation) during the First Transition Period or the Second Transition Period, you are unable to meet demand for the Pharmaceutical, or you notify PHARMAC under clause 5.1 of this Schedule of a Potential Out-of-Stock Event, or you otherwise fail to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement, PHARMAC may suspend Sole Supply Status in relation to your supply of the Pharmaceutical for the period of such inability. Any suspension of Sole Supply Status is without prejudice to PHARMAC’s rights under clauses 5.2 and 5.3 of this Schedule. PHARMAC may, at any time, in its sole discretion, notify you of the date on which the suspension of Sole Supply Status under this clause 2.4 ceases and on which date: (i) (ii) Sole Supply Status is to be re-implemented in respect of the Pharmaceutical; or Sole Supply Status is to be withdrawn in accordance with clause 2.3 of Schedule Six.

Schedule 9
Schedule 9: Additional contract terms for foreign exchange bid 1. Introduction
This Schedule sets out terms that will apply to your Tender Bid if you have submitted a Foreign Exchange Bid. The provisions in this Schedule are intended to operate as follows: (a) Your Foreign Exchange Bid will be converted into New Zealand dollars in order to establish an initial or base price. The timing of this conversion is described in clause 2(a) of this Schedule and depends on whether or not your Tender Bid is accepted conditional on market approval. The formula for calculating the base price is set out in clause 2(b) of this Schedule and is based on an average exchange rate over the period shortly before the base price is calculated. The base price will be the initial Price under the Agreement. The Price will be reviewed periodically under the Agreement. The first review of the base price will occur on 30 June 2004. After the review on 30 June 2004 (if applicable), a subsequent review will be held on 30 June 2005. For the avoidance of doubt, the review on 30 June 2005 is to occur for a Pharmaceutical with Sole Supply Status, and is only to occur for a Pharmaceutical with Hospital Supply Status if the HSS Renewed Terms applies. At each review date, an exchange rate average for the preceding period will be determined. The exchange rate average forms part of the formula described in clause 3(a) of this Schedule for calculating a new price. If the calculated new price is between 95% and 105% of the price just preceding the review, there will be no change to the Price. If the calculated new price is below 95% or above 105% of the Price, then you may supply the Pharmaceutical at a reviewed price that must be less than or equal to the price calculated under the formula. PHARMAC will subsidise the pharmaceutical at the level of that reviewed price unless the reviewed price is greater than 120% of the base price. In this case, your Sole Supply Status, or Hospital Supply Status, as applicable, is no longer guaranteed and PHARMAC may apply any of the strategies under its OPPs, and/or it may choose to subsidise the Pharmaceutical with Sole Supply Status at a level that is no more than 120% of the base price, and/or it may review the terms of listing of, and the extent to which DHB Hospitals may purchase a variant of, a pharmaceutical with Hospital Supply Status. A reviewed price (if any) will apply until the next review date, at which time the same process will occur to determine another reviewed price (if any), except that the provisions relating to the subsidy cap of 120% will always be based on the base price. There is provision in clause 5 for you and PHARMAC to appoint an independent expert to determine any disputed calculation. 116

Rate Price Review, such price being a price that is less than or equal to the Calculated Price (the Reviewed Price). (b) The Reviewed Price will become the new Price under the Agreement from the first day of the month following the date on which you notify PHARMAC of the Reviewed Price. th Therefore, that price must be effective in the market from the 12 day of the month on which you notify PHARMAC of the Reviewed Price. If the Calculated Price is between 95% and 105% of the Base Price (or, if there has been an Exchange Rate Price Review, of the Reviewed Price), then you are to continue to supply the Pharmaceutical at the Base Price, or, if applicable, the Reviewed Price until the next Exchange Rate Price Review, or the end of the Sole Supply Period or the Hospital Supply Status Period, as applicable (whichever is earlier). If the Reviewed Price is greater than 120% of the Base Price, then PHARMAC may: (i) withdraw your Sole Supply Status or Hospital Supply Status, as applicable, in which case PHARMAC may, at its sole discretion, require the Pharmaceutical to remain listed subject to the terms of this Agreement, as applicable, from the date on which Sole Supply Status, or Hospital Supply Status, as applicable is withdrawn; and/or apply any of the strategies under PHARMAC’s OPPs to the Pharmaceutical, which may include: (A) entering into negotiations or arrangements with other suppliers for the listing of other brands of the Pharmaceutical at any time on the Pharmaceutical Schedule; and calling for a further tender of the Pharmaceutical, which may result in the delisting of your brand of the Pharmaceutical; and/or

Dispute Over Price
(a) If there is a dispute between PHARMAC and you over any price calculation, which you and PHARMAC cannot resolve within five days of the dispute arising (the Initial Period), then, as soon as possible following the expiry of that Initial Period, PHARMAC and you are to appoint an appropriately qualified independent person to determine the price. If there is no agreement on a mutually acceptable person within 15 days of the end of the Initial Period, then the price is to be determined by an appropriately qualified independent person appointed for that purpose by the President for the time being of the Institute of Chartered Accountants of New Zealand. The independent person is to calculate the disputed price and, in doing so, is to be considered as acting as an expert and not an arbitrator. As soon as practicable after the date of the independent person’s appointment, and in any case no later than three days after that appointment, we shall both submit our

calculations, in writing, to the independent person, together with any documentation supporting our calculations. (d) The independent person is to provide us with a written determination of the price, including the calculations used to derive that price, no later than 14 days from the date of his or her appointment under paragraph (a) above unless we agree otherwise. The independent person’s determination of the price is to be final and binding on both of us. The costs incurred by the independent person in completing his or her determination are to be shared equally by us, irrespective of the outcome of the determination.
