Schedule 3

Schedule 3: Tender Process

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 Community/Hospital Tender Bids are to be submitted on the basis that if your Combined Community/Hospital 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

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; 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.

(ii)

(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

R34-4-0 #103432

Schedule 3

different commencement date is necessary to ensure appropriate stock management or appropriate supply of the Tender Item; and/or (ii) 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 1.2(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.

(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 clause 1.1(a) 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)

1.3

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 1.6 of this Schedule); and Schedule Five; and Schedule Six,

(ii) (iii)

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; (b) Hospital 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 1.6 of this Schedule); and Schedule Five; and Schedule Seven,

(ii) (iii)

(B) (C)

will be deemed to have been entered into between you and PHARMAC for Hospital 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 Seven, 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.

1.4

Extension of Hospital Supply Status to include Sole Supply Status

(a) You acknowledge and agree that if your Hospital Tender Bid is for a Tender Item that is specified in the product list in clause 2 of Schedule Two as being a Tender Item for which you may submit a Tender Bid for Sole Supply Status, you may agree (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), if so requested by PHARMAC: (i) if PHARMAC has not yet accepted a Hospital Tender Bid for the particular Tender Item, to extend your Tender Bid to cover community supply; or if PHARMAC has accepted your Hospital Tender Bid for the particular Tender Item, to supply the Tender Item for use in the community under Sole Supply Status as soon as practicable after such requirement is notified to you, and in any case no later than three months after that notification, under a separate contract for Sole Supply Status.

(ii)

(b)

The Hospital Tender Bid referred to in paragraph (a)(i) above and the contract for Hospital Supply Status referred to in paragraph (a)(ii) above will be: (i) at a price that is equal to the Price specified for that Pharmaceutical in your Community Tender Bid; and on the other terms and conditions set out in your Community Tender Bid (incorporating any variations as a result of negotiations or discussions under clause 1.6 of this Schedule), as applicable; and for supply in accordance with Schedules Five and Seven; and for such quantities of the Pharmaceutical as are required for use in DHB Hospitals.

(ii)

(iii) (iv)

(c)

This clause confers a benefit on, and is enforceable by, DHB Hospitals in accordance with the Contracts (Privity) Act 1982.

1.6

PHARMAC may initiate limited negotiations

Schedule 3

(i) (ii) (iii)

any of the terms and conditions to apply if your Tender Bid is accepted; the proposed packaging or pack size of the Tender Item; your ability to ensure continued availability of the Tender Item throughout the Hospital Supply Status Period and/or Sole Supply Period, as applicable; the price of the Tender Item, but only where PHARMAC determines, in its sole discretion, that an increased price for the Tender Item may be necessary for practicality of supply of the Tender Item (for example, because of particular packaging requirements); DV Limits and/or DV Pharmaceuticals, in relation to hospital supply; the Lead Time and/or the Start Date; or any other matter that PHARMAC considers necessary or appropriate.

(iv)

(v) (vi) (vii) (b)

If PHARMAC initiates negotiations or discussions with you under paragraph (a), and as a result there is a change to any of the terms and conditions relating to the supply of a Tender Item, PHARMAC is not obliged to inform the other tenderers of that change, nor give those tenderers an opportunity to amend their bid for that Tender Item, unless the change is one which would result in the terms and conditions being materially different in scope from those set out in this Invitation. The initiation and pursuit of any negotiations or discussions under this clause shall not constitute a counter-offer and your original Tender Bid will remain open for acceptance in accordance with clause 4.2(b) of this Schedule in the absence of agreement on any variation to that Tender Bid.

(c)

1.7

Termination and amendment of Invitation

PHARMAC may: (a) (b) amend this Invitation at any time up to five business days before the Deadline; and/or terminate this Invitation at any time before the acceptance of any Tender Bid by giving five business days’ written notice.

Schedule 6: Additional contract terms for Sole Supply Status

1.1

Effect of Sole Supply Status Subsidy arrangements

(a) Subject to clause 3.1 of this Schedule, the Pharmaceutical will be subsidised, and you must supply it, during the First Transition Period at the Price. If another brand of the Chemical Entity is listed on the Pharmaceutical Schedule, that brand will continue to be subsidised for the First Transition Period at the subsidy applicable to it immediately before the commencement of the First Transition Period. The subsidy payable for all other brands of that form and strength of the Chemical Entity that are listed will be changed to the Price on the first day of the Second Transition Period. 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, and you must continue to supply it, 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.

(c)

(d)

(e)

1.2

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.

(b)

(c)

1.3

Withdrawal of Sole Supply Status

(a) PHARMAC may withdraw Sole Supply Status in relation to your supply of the Pharmaceutical (in which case clauses 1.1 and 1.2 of this Schedule will no longer apply), by written notice to you at any time during the Sole Supply Period or (in anticipation) during the First Transition Period or the Second Transition Period if: (i) you have failed to notify PHARMAC as required under clause 5.1 of this Schedule;

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 1.4 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 1.3 of this Schedule.

(b)

(c)

1.5

Subsidy arrangements after the End Date

(a) Subject to paragraphs (b) and (c) 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 Sole Supply Status for that form and strength of the Chemical Entity; and the Pharmaceutical will remain listed in Section B of the Pharmaceutical Schedule subject to PHARMAC’s standard terms of supply for pharmaceuticals used in the community (as recorded in the then current general listing terms Annex of PHARMAC’s standard community contract template). you may increase the price ex-manufacturer (exclusive of GST) at which you supply the Pharmaceutical to wholesalers and other such distributors on giving PHARMAC six months’ written notice of that price increase. You may provide PHARMAC with this written notice at any time after, but not before, the End Date; if PHARMAC does not increase the subsidy for the Pharmaceutical to the new price notified under paragraph (a)(iii) above, you may withdraw the Pharmaceutical from supply on not less than six months’ prior written notice; if PHARMAC does increase the subsidy for the Pharmaceutical to the new price notified under paragraph (a)(iii) above, 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

Schedule 6

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 (vi) 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).

(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).

(ii)

(c)

In the event PHARMAC applies any of the strategies described in paragraph (b)(ii) above, you may withdraw the Pharmaceutical from supply on not less than six months’ prior written notice. You may provide PHARMAC with this written notice at any time after, but not before, the date that the particular strategy takes effect in the Pharmaceutical Schedule.

2.1

Consents Warranty and indemnity that Consents are held

You warrant that you have, and will maintain, all necessary Consents. If a Consent is not held by you or is withdrawn or the Pharmaceutical is no longer approved for the treatment of any indication for which it is subsidised, then: (a) (b) PHARMAC is entitled to terminate this Agreement by 14 days’ written notice to you; and whether or not PHARMAC terminates this Agreement under paragraph (a) above, you are to indemnify the Funder for any additional costs incurred by it (or by PHARMAC on its behalf) as a result of that failure to hold all necessary Consents. This clause confers a benefit on (and is enforceable by) the Funder in accordance with the Contracts (Privity) Act 1982.

2.2

Changed medicine notification

If the Ministry of Health issues a changed medicine notification in relation to a Pharmaceutical, and as a result a variant of the Pharmaceutical (the “CMN Pharmaceutical”) is approved: (a) (b) you must immediately notify PHARMAC; and PHARMAC may take such action as it considers appropriate in relation to that Pharmaceutical or the CMN Pharmaceutical including (but not limited to): (i) withdrawing Sole Supply Status for the Pharmaceutical;

3.3

Warranty that Pharmaceutical is supplied at not less than cost price

You warrant that the price at which you are required to supply the Pharmaceutical under this Agreement is greater than the cost price of the Pharmaceutical (including, without limitation, the costs of manufacturing the Pharmaceutical and of supplying it to you for supply in New Zealand).

3.4

The subsidy payable for the Pharmaceutical will not be reduced as a result of a reduction in the reference price for the therapeutic sub-group of which it is a member during the Sole Supply Period. For the avoidance of doubt, PHARMAC will not be prevented from applying its reference pricing mechanisms to the Pharmaceutical to reduce the subsidy payable for it from the End Date.

Shelf-life of Pharmaceutical

(a) You will not supply the Pharmaceutical to wholesalers, or other such distributors, or pharmacies if: (i) (ii) the remaining shelf-life of the Pharmaceutical is less than six months; or where the total shelf-life of the Pharmaceutical is less than six months, the remaining shelf-life is less than 75% of the Pharmaceutical’s total shelf-life,

without prior written agreement from PHARMAC. (b) If you have an agreement with PHARMAC to supply the Pharmaceutical, where the total shelf-life of the Pharmaceutical is less than six months and the remaining shelf-life is less than 75% of the Pharmaceutical’s total shelf-life, and a particular wholesaler, or other such distributor, or pharmacy does not distribute or dispense that Pharmaceutical before its expiry or use-by date, you agree to allow that wholesaler, or other such distributor, or pharmacy to return the Pharmaceutical to you and to provide that wholesaler, or other such distributor, or pharmacy with a credit for the Pharmaceutical.

you have notified PHARMAC under clause 5.1 of this Schedule, then without prejudice to PHARMAC’s rights under clause 5.2: (A) (B) you are not liable to pay any liquidated damages under this clause 5.3; and if you fail to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement for more than 30 days, PHARMAC may withdraw Sole Supply Status in relation to your supply of the Pharmaceutical under clause 1.3 of this Schedule.

(b)

If, having notified PHARMAC under clause 5.1 of this Schedule, you remain able to, and you continue to, supply the Pharmaceutical, or an Alternative Pharmaceutical in accordance with clause 5.1(b)(ii) of this Schedule, such that there is no interruption to supply of the Pharmaceutical or of the Alternative Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement, you will not be liable for any costs unless PHARMAC, in its sole discretion, has considered it necessary to enter into an arrangement with an alternative supplier under which PHARMAC has agreed to make a payment to that supplier to ensure continuity of supply, in which case you must indemnify the Funder or PHARMAC for that payment. Such indemnity will be limited to an amount of $10,000. You acknowledge and agree that: (i) the amounts of liquidated damages in this clause represent a reasonable estimate of the administrative and operational costs incurred by PHARMAC (including the use of staff and loss of opportunity as a result of use of staff time, and communication costs), the estimate being based on PHARMAC’s previous experience; and the amounts referred to as liquidated damages are not intended to include any penalty element nor any amount for costs relating to the securing of an Alternative Pharmaceutical, or the subsidisation of an Alternative Pharmaceutical,

(c)

(ii)

provided that PHARMAC may, in its sole discretion, require you to pay less than the amount specified as liquidated damages if it is satisfied that the actual costs in the particular circumstances are less than the relevant amount so specified. (d) (e) All amounts referred to in this clause are plus GST. Where a Pharmaceutical in respect of which you are liable to pay liquidated damages pursuant to clause 5.3(a)(i)(A) above also has Hospital Supply Status and where you would otherwise be liable to pay the same amount of liquidated damages in respect of any corresponding failure under the terms of such Hospital Supply Status, you will only be required to pay liquidated damages of $50,000 in total in respect of both supply failures.

Default interest and recovery costs

If payment of any amount required to be paid by you under this clause 5 is not made by you, in full, by the due date for payment of that amount as notified to you in writing by PHARMAC, then: (a) interest will accrue in such sum as remains unpaid at a rate per annum equal to the business base rate of ASB Bank Limited plus five percentage points, calculated and compounded on a daily basis, from the due date until such time as the sum due (including interest) is paid in full. This obligation to pay default interest is to arise without the need for a notice or demand from PHARMAC for such default interest; and PHARMAC may take any action, including legal action, without first needing to implement the dispute resolution procedure contained in clause 4.2 of Schedule Five, to recover that amount and you agree to pay to PHARMAC actual enforcement costs incurred in relation to that action.

6.1

Termination and restrictions Termination and restrictions for clinical reasons

PHARMAC reserves the right, but only after consultation with you and a relevant medical adviser (being either the Ministry of Health, PTAC or its sub-committees), to: (a) terminate this Agreement at any time during the Sole Supply Period or the First Transition Period or the Second Transition Period if the medical adviser determines for clinical reasons that it is no longer appropriate to have either: (i) (ii) a sole subsidised supplier of that form and strength of the Chemical Entity; or the Pharmaceutical as the sole subsidised brand; and/or

Schedule 6

(b)

impose at any time during the Sole Supply Period or the Transition Periods restrictions on the prescribing or dispensing of a Pharmaceutical if those restrictions are necessary for clinical reasons.

6.2

Termination following an audit

PHARMAC may terminate the Agreement, or withdraw Sole Supply Status in relation to a Pharmaceutical, at any time during the Sole Supply Period or the Transition Periods, if you fail to remedy any area of non-compliance in accordance with clause 3(b) of Schedule Five.

Guarantee

(a) PHARMAC may require an entity acceptable to it to provide a guarantee (in a form satisfactory to PHARMAC) of your performance obligations under clauses 5.2 and 5.3 of this Schedule including, without limitation, the payment of any sum payable under the indemnity or as liquidated damages pursuant to those clauses for any failure to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement during the Sole Supply Period. The guarantor’s liability under such a guarantee will be limited to a total of $100,000 per Chemical Entity for all claims made by PHARMAC under the guarantee.

Schedule 7: Additional contract terms for Hospital Supply Status

1.1

Effect of Hospital Supply Status Pricing arrangements

(a) Subject to PHARMAC’s other rights under this Agreement and clause 3.1 of this Schedule, on and from the Start Date, during the remainder of the First Transition Period and during the Hospital Supply Status Period, the Pharmaceutical is to be: (i) (ii) listed at the Price set out in Section H of the Pharmaceutical Schedule; sold by you to, at a DHB Hospital's discretion, any Designated Delivery Points, and/or Contract Manufacturers (expressly for the purpose of compounding), at the Price.

(b)

Where the Pharmaceutical is included in an order by a DHB Hospital for pharmaceuticals where the total value (excluding GST) of the order is less than $1,000, you may invoice the DHB Hospital, in accordance with clause 4.1 below, for the cost of freight for that particular order. For the avoidance of doubt, this clause 1.1(b) does not entitle you to invoice a DHB Hospital for any other costs in relation to the particular order. Subject to PHARMAC’s other rights under this Agreement in relation to the Pharmaceutical (including under clause 1.6 of this Schedule), and provided that there are no Alternative Pharmaceuticals listed in Section H of the Pharmaceutical Schedule at the start of the Final Transition Period, the Pharmaceutical: (i) is to continue to be listed, sold and purchased at the Price referred to in clauses 1.1(a)(i) and (ii) above during the Final Transition Period and beyond; and is not to be delisted during the Final Transition Period.

Supplier for Hospital Supply Status Period

(a) Subject to: (i) PHARMAC’s other rights under this Agreement in relation to the Pharmaceutical; and clauses 1.4 and 1.5 of this Schedule relating to the DV Limit for the Pharmaceutical,

(ii)

your brand of the Pharmaceutical will be the brand listed in Section H of the Pharmaceutical Schedule, and purchased by DHB Hospitals at any time during the Hospital Supply Status Period, as the brand having Hospital Supply Status. (b) This clause does not prohibit PHARMAC (on behalf of DHB Hospitals) from entering into negotiations or arrangements with, or inviting tenders from, other suppliers to be the supplier of any forms and strengths of the particular Pharmaceutical with Hospital Supply Status, or a relevant Alternative Pharmaceutical having a status equivalent to Hospital Supply Status, if notification of such an arrangement (once finalised) occurs, and such supply commences, after the end of the Hospital Supply Status Period.

Schedule 7

1.3

DV Pharmaceuticals

(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 1.3, whereby: (i) PHARMAC is only to remove a pharmaceutical listed as a DV Pharmaceutical if PHARMAC: (A) (B) has first obtained your agreement; or has a direction from Medsafe or its successor, or a recommendation from HPAC, PTAC or its sub-committees, based on a significant clinical issue;

(ii)

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.

(b)

PHARMAC must consult with you prior to the addition or removal of any pharmaceutical from the relevant list of DV Pharmaceuticals specified in Section H of the Pharmaceutical Schedule.

1.4

DV Limit

(a) PHARMAC may, from time to time during the Hospital Supply Status Period or the First Transition Period, amend the DV Limit of the Pharmaceutical following what PHARMAC considers to be appropriate consultation with HPAC, PTAC or its sub-committees, provided that PHARMAC may only increase the DV Limit without your prior agreement if it has a direction from Medsafe or its successor, or a recommendation from HPAC, PTAC or its sub-committees, based on a significant clinical issue. Subject to clause 1.5 of this Schedule you acknowledge and agree that while you have Hospital Supply Status: (i) 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; provided that DHB Hospitals collectively do not exceed the National DV Limit for the relevant Pharmaceutical, a DHB Hospital may purchase DV Pharmaceuticals at any time within the Hospital Supply Status Period; without derogating from any other rights available to PHARMAC or DHB Hospitals under this Agreement or otherwise, if you fail to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement (other than for a reason that PHARMAC reasonably considers, following discussion with you, to be wholly outside your control) within the Hospital Supply Status Period, then the relevant DHB Hospital is not required to comply with the DV Limit for the Pharmaceutical during that period of non-supply and the calendar month during which that non-supply occurred will be excluded in any review of the DV Limit in accordance with clause 1.5 below; if a DHB Hospital’s usage of any DV Pharmaceuticals, in percentage terms, reaches or exceeds the percentage at which the Individual DV Limit is set for the relevant Pharmaceutical, that DHB Hospital may negotiate with you to agree to vary the application of the Individual DV Limit to the DHB Hospital in respect of particular patients with exceptional needs.

DV Limit Compliance

(a) For the purposes of this clause 1.5: (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 2008; or the period commencing on 1 July 2008 and ending on 30 June 2009; or the period commencing on 1 July 2009 and ending on 30 June 2010,

(B) (C)

provided that for the purposes of carrying out the calculations in this clause 1.5 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 1.5(b) below, on the basis of the data extracted by PHARMAC from 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 1.5(b) below, on the basis of the data extracted by PHARMAC from 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 1.5 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 Individual DV Limit percentage for that Pharmaceutical, PHARMAC may decide, in its sole discretion, not to take any further action. 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

(c)

R34-4-0 #103432

Schedule 7

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 for you, and you may not be able to obtain, financial compensation under clause 1.5(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. (e) 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 1.4(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, determining what financial compensation is payable 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,

(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, as calculated by PHARMAC for such Relevant Period on the basis of the data extracted by PHARMAC from 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

R34-4-0 #103432 69

Schedule 7

Relevant Period, as calculated by PHARMAC for such Relevant Period on the basis of the data extracted by PHARMAC from 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 data extracted by PHARMAC from the electronic records used by it; (iii) PHARMAC will notify you and the relevant DHB in writing of any DV Limit compensation payable in accordance with clause 1.5(f)(ii) above. You may then invoice the relevant DHB for the amount of DV Limit compensation payable, as calculated and notified to you by PHARMAC. You must provide to PHARMAC a copy of any such invoice, and evidence of any payment received from the DHB in respect of that invoice, within 10 business days of sending such invoice or receiving such payment, respectively. If you have not received the amount of any DV Limit compensation payable in accordance with clause 1.5(f)(ii) above from the DHB within 60 business days of invoicing the DHB for the amount owing, then you may take such further 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 DHBx and the Total DV Pharmaceuticals Volume in Excess of DV Limit in this clause 1.5, if a pharmaceutical is added to, or removed from, the list of DV Pharmaceuticals during the Relevant Period in accordance with clause 1.3 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.

(ii)

(b)

Any suspension of Hospital Supply Status is without prejudice to PHARMAC’s rights under clauses 7.2 and 7.3 of this Schedule. PHARMAC may, at any time, in its sole discretion, notify you of the date on which the suspension of Hospital Supply Status under this clause 1.8 ceases and on which date: (i) Hospital Supply Status is to be re-implemented in respect of the Pharmaceutical; or Hospital Supply Status is to be withdrawn in accordance with clause 1.7 of this Schedule.

You agree to indemnify DHB Hospitals and PHARMAC if you fail to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement (other than for reasons that PHARMAC reasonably considers, following discussion with you, to be wholly outside your control) whether as a result of: (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) your inability to meet demand for supply of the Pharmaceutical; your withdrawal of the Pharmaceutical from supply; any failure to have and maintain a Consent as specified in clause 2 of this Schedule; any failure to notify PHARMAC in accordance with clause 7.1 above; or for any other reason.

7.3

Liquidated damages

(a) If you fail to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement (other than for reasons that PHARMAC reasonably considers, following discussion with you, to be wholly outside your control) and: (i) you have not notified PHARMAC and the relevant DHB Hospitals under clause 7.1 of this Schedule, then without prejudice to PHARMAC’s and the relevant DHB Hospitals’ rights under clause 7.2 above, but subject to paragraph (e) below, you must pay to PHARMAC (for the benefit of PHARMAC and DHB Hospitals) liquidated damages for the administrative and/or operational costs incurred by PHARMAC and DHB Hospitals as a result of your failure to supply in the amount of $50,000 per Pharmaceutical in respect of which you failed to notify PHARMAC; or you have notified PHARMAC and the relevant DHB Hospitals under clause 7.1 of this Schedule, then without prejudice to PHARMAC’s and the relevant DHB Hospitals’ rights under clause 7.2 above you are not liable to pay any liquidated damages under this clause 7.3.

(ii)

(b)

If, having notified PHARMAC and the relevant DHB Hospitals under clause 7.1 of this Schedule, you remain able to, and you continue to, supply the Pharmaceutical, or an Alternative Pharmaceutical in accordance with clause 7.1(b)(ii) of this Schedule, such that there is no interruption to supply of the Pharmaceutical or of the Alternative Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement, you will not be liable for any costs unless PHARMAC, in its sole discretion, has considered it necessary to enter into an arrangement with an alternative supplier under which PHARMAC or the relevant DHB Hospitals have agreed to make a payment to that supplier to ensure continuity of supply, in which case you must indemnify the relevant DHB Hospitals and PHARMAC for that payment. Such indemnity will be limited to an amount of $10,000 per Pharmaceutical. You acknowledge and agree that: (i) the amounts of liquidated damages in this clause represent a reasonable estimate of the administrative and operational costs incurred by PHARMAC and DHB Hospitals (including the use of staff and loss of opportunity as a result of use of staff time, and communication costs), the estimate being based on PHARMAC’s and DHB Hospitals’ previous experience; and the amounts referred to as liquidated damages are not intended to include any penalty element nor any amount for costs relating to the securing of an Alternative Pharmaceutical, or the purchasing of an Alternative Pharmaceutical,

(c)

Schedule 7

(e)

Where a Pharmaceutical in respect of which you are liable to pay liquidated damages pursuant to clause 7.3(a)(i) above also has Sole Supply Status and where you would otherwise be liable to pay the same amount of liquidated damages in respect of any corresponding failure under the terms of such Sole Supply Status, you will only be required to pay liquidated damages of $50,000 in total in respect of both supply failures.

7.4

Failure to supply

References in this clause 7 and elsewhere in this Schedule to your failure or inability to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement, or your inability to meet demand for supply of the Pharmaceutical, or insufficient stock of the Pharmaceutical being available, include, but are not limited to, circumstances where: (a) no stock of the Pharmaceutical is physically held by you or on your behalf in New Zealand; the only stock of the Pharmaceutical physically held by you or on your behalf in New Zealand is stock to which clause 6.2(a)(i) or (ii) of this Schedule applies and no agreement has been reached with the relevant DHB Hospital in terms of clause 6.2(a) of this Schedule; you fail, directly or indirectly, to ensure that all orders for the Pharmaceutical are filled (without restricting quantities that may be ordered), including in particular where not all patients for whom the Pharmaceutical is prescribed receive the full amount of the Pharmaceutical they require, or to which they are entitled, under their prescriptions, without delay; you fail to supply the Pharmaceutical on and from the Start Date.

(c)

(d)

7.5

Default interest and recovery costs

If payment of any amount required to be paid by you under this clause 7 is not made by you, in full, by the due date for payment of that amount as notified to you in writing by PHARMAC, then: (a) interest will accrue in such sum as remains unpaid at a rate per annum equal to the business base rate of ASB Bank Limited plus five percentage points, calculated and compounded on a daily basis, from the due date until such time as the sum due (including interest) is paid in full. This obligation to pay default interest is to arise without the need for a notice or demand from PHARMAC for such default interest; and PHARMAC may take any action, including legal action, without first needing to implement the dispute resolution procedure contained in clause 4.2 of Schedule Five, to recover that amount and you agree to pay to PHARMAC actual enforcement costs incurred in relation to that action.

(b)

8.1

Termination and restrictions Termination and restrictions for clinical reasons

PHARMAC reserves the right, but only after consultation with you and a relevant medical adviser (being either the Ministry of Health, HPAC, PTAC, or a sub-committee of HPAC or PTAC), to: (a) terminate this Agreement at any time during the Hospital Supply Status Period or the First Transition Period if the medical adviser determines for clinical reasons that it is no longer appropriate to have either:

R34-4-0 #103432

Schedule 7

(i)

any Pharmaceutical, including the Pharmaceutical or any relevant Alternative Pharmaceutical, having Hospital Supply Status of that form and strength of the Pharmaceutical with Hospital Supply Status; or the Pharmaceutical as the brand having Hospital Supply Status; and/or

(ii) (b)

8.2

Termination following an audit

PHARMAC may terminate the Agreement, or withdraw Hospital Supply Status in relation to, or revise DV Limits for, a Pharmaceutical, at any time during the Hospital Supply Status Period or the Transition Periods, if you fail to remedy any area of non-compliance in accordance with clause 3(b) of Schedule Five.

Guarantee

(a) PHARMAC may require an entity acceptable to it to provide a guarantee (in a form satisfactory to PHARMAC) of your performance obligations under clauses 7.2 and 7.3 of this Schedule including, without limitation, the payment of any sum payable under the indemnity or as liquidated damages pursuant to those clauses for any failure to supply the Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement during the Hospital Supply Status Period. The guarantor’s liability under such a guarantee will be limited to a total of $100,000 per Pharmaceutical for all claims made by PHARMAC under the guarantee.

(b)

(a) You acknowledge that PHARMAC and its agents will require access to price and volume data held by you and DHB Hospitals in respect of the Pharmaceutical covered by this Agreement to assist PHARMAC to carry out its statutory function in relation to managing the purchasing of hospital pharmaceuticals on behalf of DHBs. Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Agreement, including clauses 9.1 and 9.2 of Schedule Three regarding confidential information, you agree that where the circumstances in this clause apply, a DHB Hospital may provide PHARMAC and its agents with any price and volume data held by that DHB Hospital in respect of a Pharmaceutical covered by this Agreement and PHARMAC and its agents may provide such data on DHBs. You agree that within 10 business days following any request from PHARMAC, you will provide PHARMAC with volume data in respect of the Pharmaceutical covered by this Agreement for each month of the period specified in that request.

Schedule 7

(ii)

subject to the rules and restrictions applying to PCTs in Sections A to G of the Pharmaceutical Schedule.

(b)

If PHARMAC lists the Pharmaceutical in Section B of the Pharmaceutical Schedule pursuant to paragraph (a) above, you acknowledge and agree that: (i) such listing will be for reasons relating to claiming and will not, unless otherwise advised in writing by PHARMAC, enable you to supply the Pharmaceutical for use in the community; listing of the Pharmaceutical in Section B will, at PHARMAC’s option, be additional to or instead of listing in Part II of Section H; references to the “listing” of the Pharmaceutical will, where applicable, be to the listing of the Pharmaceutical in Section B of the Pharmaceutical Schedule (and references to “list”, “listed”, “delist”, “delisted”, and “delisting” are to be interpreted accordingly); and the standard terms of listing of the Pharmaceutical in Section B of the Pharmaceutical Schedule will, except to the extent otherwise advised in writing by PHARMAC, be the terms set out in Schedule Five and this Schedule Seven, and for that purpose all references in Schedule Five and Schedule Seven to “Section H” will be deemed to be references to “Section B”.

11.2

Transitional Budget Arrangements

(a) You acknowledge that DHBs and PHARMAC are in the process of transferring responsibility for a notional PCT budget to PHARMAC and that this is expected to take place in two phases with the following approximate dates: (i) the “Data Collection Phase” is expected to run until 30 June 2007, unless notified otherwise by PHARMAC, during which time DHB Hospitals will still have responsibility for the PCTs’ budget; and the “Budget Transfer” is expected to occur on 1 July 2007, unless notified otherwise by PHARMAC, at which point PHARMAC will have responsibility for the PCTs budget.

(ii)

(b)

You agree that, from the date of the Budget Transfer, which will occur on 1 July 2007 unless notified otherwise to you by PHARMAC, and, for the avoidance of doubt, may occur before a Tender Bid for any Pharmaceutical is accepted, clause 7.1 of this Schedule will be deleted and replaced by the following:

8.1 Notification of Potential Out-of-Stock Event and supply of Alternative Pharmaceutical. (a) You must notify PHARMAC in writing as soon as you have reasonable cause to believe that you will fail to supply a Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement and, in any event, you must notify PHARMAC and the relevant DHB Hospitals if at any time a Potential Out-of-Stock Event occurs, including during the Hospital Supply Period or the First Transaction Period. If you fail to supply a Pharmaceutical in accordance with this Agreement for more than 1 business day to any DHB Hospital, then:

(b)

R34-4-0 #103432

Schedule 7

(i)

you must use your best endeavours to procure, within what the relevant DHB Hospitals consider to be a reasonable period of time, an Alternative Pharmaceutical for supply to, at a DHB Hospital's discretion, any Designated Delivery Points, and/or Contract Manufacturers (expressly for the purpose of compounding) at the Price; and if you fail to procure an Alternative Pharmaceutical at the Price in accordance with sub-clause (i) above (other than for reasons that PHARMAC reasonably considers, following discussion with you, to be wholly outside your control) then, at PHARMAC’s option: (A) you must pay to PHARMAC (for the benefit of PHARMAC and DHB Hospitals) any additional costs that PHARMAC incurs or that the relevant DHB Hospitals incur as a result of the purchase of the Alternative Pharmaceutical; or PHARMAC may implement an arrangement with another supplier to supply an Alternative Pharmaceutical (including an arrangement for back-up supply), and you must pay to PHARMAC (for the benefit of PHARMAC and DHB Hospitals) any additional costs that PHARMAC incurs or that the relevant DHB Hospitals incur as a result of the purchase of the Alternative Pharmaceutical.

(ii)

(B)

(c)

This clause confers a benefit on (and is enforceable by) DHB Hospitals in accordance with the Contracts (Privity) Act 1982.
