(i)      With respect to any Relocated Spaces, Target shall provide CVS with the Target Plans and Specs and the Parties shall meet to discuss the Relocated Space, including the location, design, size of, and signage for, the Pharmacy in such Relocated Space, and to ensure that the Relocated Space is of a size and configuration that will enable CVS to comply with all Laws at the Relocated Space.

Target shall provide CVS with reasonable, periodic notices, and updates, information and communications throughout the relocation and opening and development process and reasonable access to the Relocated Space that would allow CVS to properly license and staff the Pharmacy in order to open it in accordance with the timeline agreed upon by the Parties and the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Target shall allow for signage that the Pharmacy is still open and operating during the relocation.  
 (ii)    Target agrees to effect and coordinate any such relocation in a manner that does not cause the Pharmacy to cease operations during its regular operating hours or otherwise impair CVS’s applicable state pharmacy license(s) for the Pharmacy Space. As soon as reasonably practicable after a Pharmacy opens for business in the Relocated Space as set forth above, CVS shall vacate and surrender its previous space in accordance with the terms of the Master Occupancy Agreement.  The Relocated Space shall become the Pharmacy Space at the Store for purposes of this Agreement and the Master Occupancy Agreement.
(b)    Request by CVS for Expansion.  
(i)    From time to time, upon request and subject to the consent of Target in its sole discretion (except as otherwise provided in Section 4.4(b)(ii)), CVS may expand the size of the Pharmacy Space in a Store, provided that the cost of any such expansion is borne by CVS.  Upon reaching such agreement, Target shall, at CVS’s expense, build the Expanded Space to a condition suitable to allow CVS to fit-out the Expanded Space with its furniture, fixtures and equipment. Target shall provide CVS with reasonable, periodic notices, and updates, information and communications throughout the expansion and opening and development process and reasonable access to the Expanded Space that would allow CVS to properly license the Pharmacy in accordance with the timeline agreed upon by the Parties and the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In addition, Target agrees to effect and coordinate any such expansion in a manner that does not cause the Pharmacy to cease operations during its regular operating hours or otherwise impair CVS’s applicable state pharmacy license(s) for the Pharmacy Space.  On the opening date of a Pharmacy in the Expanded Space as set forth above, the new Expanded Space shall become the Pharmacy Space at the Store for purposes of this Agreement and the Master Occupancy Agreement. In addition, Target shall allow for, but CVS shall be responsible for the cost of, signage that the Pharmacy is still open and operating during the expansion.
(ii)     If the prescription volume for the Pharmacy in a Smaller Format Store exceeds [*] prescriptions per week, on average, over a continuous six (6) month period,

and the square footage of that Pharmacy is less than [*] square feet, then at the request of CVS, the Parties shall cooperate with each other in good faith to determine the space reasonably required by CVS to expand the Pharmacy.  Consistent with Section 4.4(b)(i), CVS shall bear all costs associated with improving, developing, renovating and/or building the expanded Pharmacy Space pursuant to the foregoing.
4.5    Remodeling of Stores.  With respect to any Remodeled Store, Target shall ensure that any renovation or remodeling of the Pharmacy Space in such Remodeled Store does not (i) change the size, configuration or location of the Pharmacy Space (unless agreed to by CVS) or (ii) cause the Pharmacy to cease operations during their regular operating hours or otherwise impair CVS’s applicable state pharmacy license(s) for the Pharmacy Space. In connection with any Remodeled Store, CVS may elect at its cost and expense to remodel and/or renovate the Pharmacy Space in conjunction with the work being performed by Target to the remainder of the Store, provided that if CVS has not committed to such renovation or remodel within ten (10) Business Days after written notice thereof from Target, Target shall have the right to make, upon at least ten (10) Business Days’ notice to CVS and subject to the terms of the Master Occupancy Agreement, the same cosmetic upgrades to the Pharmacy Space, such as painting and flooring, as are being made to the remainder of the Remodeled Store, at Target’s cost and expense and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Master Occupancy Agreement. Target shall use commercially reasonable efforts to effect any such remodeling and/or renovation so that (a) such remodeling and/or renovation does not obstruct parking spaces needed by Patients to access the Pharmacies, and (b) CVS’s operation of the Pharmacy will not be otherwise unreasonably interfered with, but in no case shall Target be liable for any damages, expenses, or loss or reduction of CVS’s business, sales or profit resulting from such remodeling activity. Target shall allow for reasonable signage that the Pharmacy is still open and operating during any renovation or remodeling.  
4.6    Build-Out Obligation.  
(a)    Any work in connection with a Pharmacy Space in a New Store, Relocated Space, or Expanded Space pursuant to Sections 4.2, 4.3 and 4.4 shall be performed by Target in accordance with the Plans and Specs and consistent with the Target Operating Standard, and Target shall use or cause to be used substantially the same materials for the Pharmacy Space as those used in the construction of the remainder of the New Store, Relocated Space, or Expanded Space. Target shall be responsible, [*], for (i) obtaining all building, utility, sign, health, sanitation, environmental and other permits, approvals and building licenses (for clarity, not including pharmacy licenses) required for development and construction of each New Store, Relocated Space, or Expanded Space, and (ii) developing and constructing the [*], all consistent with the Target Operating Standard and the Plans and Specs, to a condition suitable to allow CVS to fit-out the Pharmacy Space with its furniture, fixtures and equipment as set forth in Section 4.6(b) below.

(b)    With regard to any work in connection with a Pharmacy Space in a New Store or Expanded Space (but excluding any Relocated Space, which work shall be the sole responsibility of Target except as otherwise provided herein), CVS shall be solely responsible for [*]. Costs with regard to work in connection with a Remodeled Store shall be incurred by the Parties as set forth in Section 4.5. For all Pharmacies, CVS shall be solely responsible for obtaining all business permits and licenses required for operating the Pharmacy. Any work that does not impact any part of the Store that is not within the Pharmacy Space or otherwise impact the Store infrastructure or utilities shall be performed by CVS using CVS’s vendors as qualified under CVS’s corporate vendor qualification program. To the extent any work impacts any part of the Store that is not within the Pharmacy Space or otherwise impacts the Store infrastructure or utilities, such work shall be performed in accordance with the Master Occupancy Agreement.

With respect to Store Closures planned under the Annual Forecast Plan, Target shall have the sole right to determine, whether for business or other reasons, to conduct a Store Closure with respect to one or more Stores containing a Pharmacy, subject to the following terms and conditions:
(a)    Target shall provide CVS with at least three (3) months’ prior written notice of its intent to conduct a Store Closure and shall consult with CVS regarding any such Store Closure to allow for budgeting, asset write-off or transfer, and Patient file transfer.
(b)    Target may have up to [*] ([*]) Store Closures in the net aggregate during a [*] ([*]) year period commencing on the Effective Date.  For purposes of calculating [*] ([*]) Store Closures under this Section 4.7(b), any New Stores where a Pharmacy opens during the first [*] ([*]) years after the Effective Date shall be subtracted from the number of Store Closures.  If Target has more than [*] ([*]) Store Closures in the net aggregate during such time period, then Target shall pay to CVS, as CVS’s sole remedy under this Section 4.7, $[*] per Store Closure in excess of [*] ([*]) Store Closures, which payment shall be made no later than seventy-five (75) days after the end of the [*] ([*]) year period.
(c)    Subject to the foregoing, upon a Store Closure, the License or Lease for the affected Pharmacy Space will terminate solely with respect to such Pharmacy Space without terminating this Agreement in its entirety, CVS shall cease operations in the Pharmacy Space, subject to Laws (including any applicable notice periods with respect to Patients), and CVS shall remove all of CVS’s equipment, devices, products (including, without limitation, CVS Products), inventory, records and other properties of CVS from the Pharmacies. Subject to Laws, CVS shall have sole discretion with respect to the transition of Patients and pharmacy records upon any Store Closure.

Any proposed alterations to any Pharmacy Space shall be subject to, and contingent upon the satisfaction of, the terms and conditions of the applicable Master Occupancy Agreement, including, but not limited to, the engagement of any contractors or vendors to perform such alterations (which shall be a party approved under Target’s corporate vendor qualification program to the extent such alteration impacts any part of the Store that is not within the Pharmacy Space or impacts Store infrastructure or utilities).
5.    Occupancy Costs and Other Payments.
5.1    Occupancy Costs. All payments of the Occupancy Costs due to Target (as adjusted on account of New Stores, Expanded Space, Relocated Space and Store Closures) shall be paid as set forth in the Master Occupancy Agreement.
5.2    Negotiated FMV.  Payment of the Occupancy Costs to Target is not intended to be and shall not be interpreted or applied as permitting Target to share in the revenue or benefits of CVS Products or Pharmacy Services, but is the Parties’ negotiated agreement as to the reasonable fair market value of the common area maintenance, utilities and other items or services furnished pursuant to this Agreement and the Master Occupancy Agreement, as the case may be.
5.3    Other Payments. Any other payments due to a Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be paid as set forth in the applicable Section contemplating such payment or within seventy-five (75) days of receipt of an invoice for such payment, whichever time period is longer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right to place and erect signage at Stores existing as of the Effective Date shall not enable CVS to alter the size or location of Target’s master branded exterior or pylon signs, and all signs placed or erected by CVS at Stores existing as of the Effective Date shall be consistent with agreed upon co-branding standards determined by the Marketing Committee and subject to Target’s reasonable review; provided that the Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other in good faith to install or erect signage with the “CVS/pharmacy” brand (or such other name designated by CVS consistent with Section 3.3) in the size and location required by Law.
6.2    All signage referred to herein and the installation thereof shall comply with all Laws.

In addition, the Governance Committee will designate and delegate authority to project managers from each Party as necessary to facilitate the day-to-day relationship between the Parties.

In the event of a continuing disagreement following the meeting of the Senior Officers, upon written notice from one Party to the other, the material issue shall be escalated to the Chief Executive Officers of each of CVS and Target for resolution.
7.3    The Governance Committee will meet at least quarterly for the first two (2) years following the Effective Date and at least semi-annually thereafter; provided that if any Governance Committee member requests to meet more frequently, the Governance Committee will meet more frequently, but not more frequently than monthly absent an emergency situation.

be required to provide any Confidential Patient Information to the Governance Committee in connection with such GC Report or otherwise.  Each GC Report will be accompanied by such supporting documentation as is reasonably requested by the Governance Committee.
8.    Operations.
8.1    Compliance with Laws. 
(a)    Compliance with Laws by CVS. CVS shall, at its expense, operate the Pharmacies in compliance in all material respects with any and all Laws applicable to the operation of the Pharmacies. CVS shall obtain and maintain in all material respects any and all permits, licenses and regulatory approvals required in connection with its operation of the Pharmacies. CVS acknowledges that it is a “Covered Entity” as that term is defined under the Health Insurance Portability and Accessibility Act (“HIPAA”) and, as such, is responsible for maintaining the privacy and security of Confidential Patient Information it receives or creates as a result of its operation of Pharmacies. The Parties further agree that to perform the services contemplated in this Agreement, Target may be a Business Associate (as such term is defined in 45 C.F.R. §160.103) if it has access to Protected Health Information (as such term is defined in 45 C.F.R. §160.103).  Target has executed a Business Associate Agreement with CVS.  Target agrees that it shall use and disclose “protected health information” as defined by HIPAA only as permitted by the Business Associate Agreement. 
(b)    Compliance with Laws by Target. Target shall, at its expense, operate the Stores in compliance in all material respects with any and all Laws applicable to the operation of the Stores. 
(c)    Chief Compliance Officers.  The Chief Compliance Officers of CVS and Target (and their delegates) shall meet at least twice each year during the term of this Agreement at such times and places as agreed to between the Chief Compliance Officers (with additional meetings or reporting as agreed to between the Chief Compliance Officers) to discuss compliance issues and mutual cooperation of the Parties to ensure effective operation of each Party’s respective corporate compliance program.  
8.2    Billing for Services.  Target shall not be responsible for, and shall have no liability for, billing Federal health care programs or other public or commercial health plans for CVS Products or Pharmacy Services. CVS acknowledges that none of the obligations of Target under this Agreement constitute activities that would make Target a down-stream contractor or delegated entity for purposes of any “Federal health care program” as defined in 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7b(f).  The Parties also acknowledge that Target’s provision of products and/or services under this Agreement does not make the Agreement a covered federal contract for federal contractor affirmative action purposes or create affirmative action obligations pursuant to such regulations (including Executive Order 11246). 
8.3    CVS Products and Pharmacy Services.

(a)    CVS shall sell, dispense, and provide CVS Products (including Exception OTC Products) and Pharmacy Services at the Pharmacies in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement; provided that CVS shall not sell, dispense, or provide Excluded Products and Services or any products or services that are not CVS Products, Exception OTC Products or Pharmacy Services at any Pharmacy.
(b)    Target and CVS have mutually agreed that the items on the “Exception OTC Product” list set forth in the Operating Protocols may be sold by CVS as CVS Products. The CVS staff will requisition such products from the Store pursuant to the process established in the Operating Protocols. Initially, CVS will pay Target a transfer cost of eighty percent (80%) of Target’s retail price for any Exception OTC Product requisitioned and sold as a CVS Product. On an annual basis, CVS and Target will meet to review and update the OTC products sold by CVS as a CVS Product, the Exception OTC Product list and the transfer cost paid for such Exception OTC Products in order to maintain the current economics between the parties. CVS shall not procure Exception OTC Products from its own distribution and supply chain network for the Pharmacies and shall take steps to ensure that Exception OTC Products are systemically blocked from being ordered by the Pharmacies.    
(c)    Target may add individual CVS Products or Pharmacy Services to the “Target Exclusion” list set forth in Exhibit A by written notice to CVS; provided that Target may not add a CVS Product or Pharmacy Service to the “Target Exclusion” list if (1) Target dispenses or provides such product or service at any of the Stores as of the Effective Date; or (2) the CVS Product or Pharmacy Service is commonly offered by other drugstores, including, but not limited to, CVS Restricted Competitors, and provided further that Target’s  addition of any CVS Product or Pharmacy Service to the “Target Exclusion” list will be subject to approval by the Governance Committee and will not be deemed Excluded Products and Services until approved by the Governance Committee.  Pharmacy Services added to the “Target Exclusion” list in accordance with this Section 8.3(c) automatically become Excluded Products and Services.
8.4    Revenue Processing.
(a)    All revenue from the CVS Products sold by, and Pharmacy Services provided by, any Pharmacy shall accrue to CVS. All other revenue from products sold or services performed in any Store, including by any Pharmacy, that are not CVS Products or Pharmacy Services, shall accrue to Target. 
(b)    Except as explicitly set forth in the Asset Purchase Agreement, each Party shall, at its expense, pay and discharge all license fees and all business, use, sales, gross receipts, income, property or other applicable taxes which may be charged or levied by reason of any act performed in connection with the operation of its business at or in connection with a Store.
(c)     Target shall wire funds to CVS in an amount equal to the “Reconciliation Amount” by 3:00 p.m. (Eastern Standard Time) on the second Business Day of the week (e.g., on Tuesday if banks are open on Monday or on Wednesday if banks are closed on 

	
			
	Pharmacy Operating Agreement
	 
	Page 20

Monday or Tuesday) (each such date, a “Reconciliation Date”).  The Reconciliation Amount shall equal the aggregate sales (net of returns), including all applicable sales taxes, in connection with the Pharmacy Services processed and collected through the Target POS from Sunday through Saturday of the preceding week (the “Sales Amount”), minus the Applicable Rate multiplied by the Sales Amount and minus any applicable sales taxes remitted on behalf of CVS by Target pursuant to the Sales Tax Agreement. In addition, on each Reconciliation Date, Target shall transmit to CVS via a mutually agreed upon data transfer method, a file containing all transaction level sales data for each sale that comprises the Sales Amount paid on that Reconciliation Date.   No more than one time in a twelve-month period, Target may notify CVS in writing of changes to the Applicable Rate, including the underlying rationale and the methodology for calculating any such changes. The new Applicable Rate shall go into effect ten (10) Business Days after CVS’s receipt of such notice.  
8.5    Pricing.
(a)    Except as provided in Section 8.5(b), CVS shall determine, in its sole discretion and in accordance with the CVS Operating Standard, the prices charged by it to its Patients for Pharmacy Services and CVS Products (including Exception OTC Products) in the Pharmacies. 
(b)    As of the Effective Date, CVS shall accept a prescription drug discount card at all Pharmacies that will include a discount generic pharmaceutical product list with $4 and $9 prices for 30 days supply and $10 and $24 prices for 90 days supply.  The initial list of pharmaceutical products covered by the prescription cash discount card program as of the Effective Date shall include the drugs on the Target generic pharmaceutical product list posted on the Target web site as of the date of signing of the Asset Purchase Agreement. CVS shall maintain the prescription cash discount card program at all Pharmacies for at least [*] ([*]) years from the Effective Date.  CVS shall have the right, from time to time after the Effective Date, to adapt or modify the cash discount card program in its sole discretion. CVS shall not charge any Guest a membership fee for the prescription cash discount card program. 
8.6    Customer Solicitations. CVS shall not solicit Guests in the Common Areas of a Store and shall not promote any products or services other than the Pharmacy Services and CVS Products at the Pharmacies, unless such acts are approved in advance in writing by Target. 
8.7    Refuse and Disposal. CVS shall be solely responsible for (i) ensuring CVS Products are disposed of appropriately by the Pharmacies in accordance with applicable Law, (ii) appropriate disposal of all Confidential Patient Information, and medical, hazardous, and environmental wastes that result from providing the Pharmacy Services, and (iii) the costs and execution of any controlled substances takeback programs required by Law. CVS shall qualify the vendors performing any aspect of the foregoing under CVS’s corporate vendor qualification policy and shall have the right to select such vendors in CVS’s sole discretion.

8.8    CVS Assistance. CVS shall establish reasonable operating procedures to ensure that, at the request of any Guest, Pharmacy Personnel reasonably assist such Guest in identifying appropriate OTC products, skin care, and other Target Products in the Stores that are consistent with managing the Guest’s health.  
8.9    Hours. CVS will initially set the operating hours of each Pharmacy operated by CVS as of the Effective Date in accordance with the operating hours of such Pharmacy in place on the Effective Date. CVS will set the operating hours of each Pharmacy in a New Store in accordance with the CVS Operating Standard. CVS shall periodically review the operating hours of each Pharmacy in relation to other pharmacies in the competing market area and CVS may thereafter adjust the operating hours of its Pharmacies, after consultation with, and reasonable written notice to, Target, provided that (i) no Pharmacy may be open earlier or later than the Store in which it is located, and (ii) no Pharmacy will be open on days during which a Store is closed.
8.10    Pharmacy Staffing & Operations. CVS shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to ensure the Pharmacies are staffed and do not cease operations during their regular operating hours.  Except with respect to any Force Majeure Event or as otherwise set forth in the Master Occupancy Agreement, in the event that any Pharmacy’s operations are disrupted for more than one (1) day, CVS shall assign appropriate staff from another location to ensure that the Pharmacy in the Store is open for normal Pharmacy operating hours. 
8.11    Service Levels. 
(a)    Script Growth Performance Target.  The Parties will measure the script volume of each of the Pharmacies existing [*] (the “Pre-Period Volume”).  On the [*] anniversary of the Effective Date, the Parties will measure the script volume of the Store Growth Group for the twelve month period preceding the [*] (the “Post-Period Volume”).  In the event the cumulative growth percentage of the [*] (the “Performance Target”), CVS shall pay to Target $[*] million for each [*] shortfall in the Performance Target, provided that such payment shall not exceed $[*] million in the aggregate. Any such payment shall be made to Target within seventy-five (75) days after the end of such [*] ([*]) year period. Beginning with the [*] anniversary of the Effective Date, CVS agrees that it will plan for business growth at the Pharmacies in a manner that is [*]. In the event (i) the cumulative growth for the previous [*] period in total script volume on a [*] as of each January 1st (commencing after the [*] anniversary of the Effective Date) is less than [*]% of the [*] (based on IMS Health Incorporated listings or a comparable source determined by the Parties in good faith) (the “Shortfall”), and (ii) the Shortfall is more than [*] ([*]) percentage points greater than the shortfall would be if only

the [*] (as determined above), then CVS shall engage a nationally recognized consulting company (the “Consultant”), at its own cost and expense, to review the Shortfall and recommend how to decrease or eliminate the Shortfall. Target shall have the right to approve the Consultant, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, and to receive a copy of the Consultant’s report. As long as the condition described in clause (ii) above continues, CVS shall implement the Consultant's recommendations in the order that CVS determines to be most effective to remediate the condition, provided that they do not require operational or other changes to the Stores (except with respect to the Pharmacies), and shall also dedicate a senior officer to oversee the Consultant’s work and the implementation of the Consultant’s recommendation(s) and to regularly update the Target Senior Officer on the progress of the implementation.
(b)    Patient Contacts/Complaints. Any calls Target receives regarding Patient complaints, whether at Stores or through Target call centers, shall be forwarded to pre-designated CVS call centers.  Except for the Target Products sold by any Pharmacy, Target shall not be responsible for, and shall have no liability for, addressing or resolving any Patient complaint with respect to CVS Products or Pharmacy Services sold or provided by the Pharmacies.  Standard incident reporting with respect to Pharmacy operations in the Stores will be provided to the Governance Committee in the GC Report. CVS shall notify Target of any complaint CVS receives from any third party in connection with the operation of a Pharmacy that alleges improper, negligent or unlawful conduct by Target or a Target team member.
(c)    Patient Survey. CVS shall survey Patients on a regular basis consistent with the frequency of such Patient surveys administered in CVS’s pharmacies not located in the Stores.  CVS and Target shall cooperate with each other to ensure the Patient surveys used at the Pharmacies align with the priorities of both businesses and their Guests.  From time to time, the Governance Committee will review the survey to ensure that it continues to meet the priorities of both businesses and their Guests.  Target may include questions regarding use of the Pharmacy and satisfaction with Pharmacy Services on its Guest surveys.  
8.12    Access to Stores.  CVS and its agents and Pharmacy Personnel shall have the right of access to the Pharmacy Space, loading docks and other loading areas of the Store for the purpose of receiving product during hours when the applicable Store is open for business and immediately prior to opening and after closing of the Store as required to perform their duties and pursuant to the Operating Protocols and otherwise in accordance with the Master Occupancy Agreement.  If CVS requests access to the Pharmacy Space at such time that no Target Personnel would otherwise be present at the Store, CVS shall only receive such access if Target Personnel are present, and CVS shall reimburse Target for the actual costs incurred by Target to open the Store and for the Target Personnel required to support the foregoing access of CVS. Target shall invoice CVS for such costs, and CVS shall pay Target such costs within seventy-five (75) days of receipt of the invoice.
8.13    Mail. Target shall deliver to CVS, reasonably promptly upon receipt thereof, a copy of all notices, statements or mail (including e-mail) and other communications primarily

Furthermore, Target shall facilitate or provide all necessary technical support for the Target POS.  If any license is required to access the software within the Target POS, as between CVS and Target, such software shall be deemed to be Background Intellectual Property, and Target grants to CVS a license to such software under the provisions of Section 14.1. 
(b)    Payment Processing Services and Policies. Target shall provide Payment Processing Services.

9.1    CVS and Target have executed the Information Security Agreement.
9.2    To the extent either party determines that additional data security measures or system access rights are required in connection with the Pharmacies, the Parties agree to work cooperatively to address such requirements and to use commercially reasonable efforts to reach a mutually agreeable resolution.

harms the goodwill or reputation of the other Party, which harm could not reasonably be expected to be temporary and could reasonably be expected to impact such Party broadly (and not in respect of any single Store or subset of Stores), and could reasonably be expected to have a material and adverse effect on the goodwill or reputation of the terminating Party if it continued its association with the other Party; or 
(b)     upon prior written notice of termination to the other Party effective one hundred and eighty (180) days following the other Party’s receipt of written notice of termination, if any event (including, in the case of CVS, CVS’s failure to maintain participation in any “Federal health care program” as defined in 42 U.S.C. § 1320a-7b(f), or the debarment, exclusion, or suspension of CVS from participation in any federal procurement program), change, development, effect, condition, circumstance, matter, occurrence or state of facts (an “Event”) has a material adverse effect on (i) the other Party’s ability to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement or (ii) the business, condition (financial or otherwise),  assets, liabilities, operations or results of operations of the other Party in the Stores (and not in respect of any single Store or subset of Stores), which Event continues unremedied for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days after the terminating Party provides written notice to the other Party describing the nature of the Event, provided, however, that an Event shall not include (1) changes in Law or applicable accounting regulations or principles or interpretations thereof, (2) any Force Majeure Event, (3) changes in the United States or foreign economies, financial markets or geopolitical conditions in general, or (4) changes in industries relating to the business of the other Party in general and not specifically relating to the business of the other Party, except to the extent (and only to the extent) that the business of the other Party is materially disproportionately impacted by such events in comparison to others in the same business as the other Party; or
(c)    upon prior written notice of termination to the other Party effective one hundred and eighty (180) days following the other Party’s receipt of written notice of termination, if any breach of this Agreement results in a material adverse effect on the business, condition (financial or otherwise),  assets, liabilities, operations or results of operations of the other Party in the Stores (and not in respect of any single Store or subset of Stores), which breach continues unremedied for a period of one hundred twenty (120) days after the terminating Party provides written notice to the other Party of the breach;
provided that for purposes of clauses (a), (b) and (c) above, during such one hundred eighty (180) day period prior to the effective date of termination, the terminating Party shall cause its Senior Officer to be available to meet in person with the Senior Officer of the non-terminating Party to seek to expeditiously resolve any differences prior to the effective date of such termination.

Except where a specific time period is specified, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from this Agreement shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.
25.10    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which will be considered one and the same agreement, and will become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered, in person or by facsimile, or by electronic image scan, receipt acknowledged, to the other Party.
25.11    Severability; Enforcement.  The invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any portion hereof will not affect the validity, force or effect of the remaining portions hereof. If it is ever held that any restriction hereunder is too broad to permit enforcement of such restriction to its fullest extent, each Party agrees that a court of competent jurisdiction may enforce such restriction to the maximum extent permitted by applicable Law, and each Party hereby consents and agrees that such scope may be judicially modified accordingly in any proceeding brought to enforce such restriction.
25.12    Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement, the Master Occupancy Agreement, the Sales Tax Agreement and the Information Security Agreement , including the schedules, exhibits and annexes attached hereto and thereto, constitute the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede any previous agreements and understandings between the Parties with respect to such matters. All Exhibits, Schedules, and Attachments annexed hereto or referred to herein are hereby incorporated in and made a part of this Agreement as if set forth in full herein. Any term used in any Exhibit, Schedule, or Attachment hereto but not otherwise defined therein is defined as set forth in this Agreement. There are no restrictions, promises, representations, warranties, agreements or undertakings of either Party with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Transition Services Agreement, the Master Occupancy Agreement, the Information Security Agreement or the Sales Tax Agreement other than those set forth herein or therein or in any other document required to be executed and delivered hereunder or thereunder. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement (and the Exhibits, Schedules, or Attachments hereto), on the one hand, and the provisions of the Transition Services Agreement, Master Occupancy Agreement, the Information Security

Agreement or the Sales Tax Agreement (including the schedules, exhibits and annexes thereto), on the other hand, the provisions of this Agreement will control.

25.14    Performance by Affiliates.  Certain of the responsibilities and duties of CVS under this Agreement may be performed by an Affiliate, but, nonetheless, CVS shall remain liable to Target for any breach of this Agreement by such Affiliate.  Similarly, certain of the responsibilities and duties of Target under this Agreement may be performed by an Affiliate, but, nonetheless, Target shall remain liable to CVS for any breach of this Agreement by such Affiliate.
25.15    Independent Contractors. The nature of the commercial relationship between CVS and Target will be that of independent contractors. Nothing contained in or done pursuant to this Agreement will be construed as creating a partnership, agency or joint venture; and neither Party will be bound by any representation, act or omission of the other Party with respect to third parties.
25.16    Other Activities. Subject to the provisions of Section 15, the Parties: (a) recognize that the other Party, its Affiliates and their respective members, partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, have or may in the future have other business interests, activities and investments, independently or with others, some of which may be in conflict or competition with the business of the Stores and the Pharmacies; (b) agree that the other Party, its Affiliates and their respective members, partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, are entitled to carry on such other business interests, activities and investments; (c) agree that neither the other Party, its Affiliates nor any of their respective members, partners, shareholders, officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives, shall have any right, by virtue of this Agreement or otherwise, in or to such business interests, activities and investments; and (d) agree that the pursuit of such business interests, activities and investments, even if competitive with the business of the Stores and the Pharmacies, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper.
25.17    Dispute Resolution.  Without limiting the rights of the Parties to seek specific enforcement under Section 25.18, each Party agrees that prior to filing any lawsuit against the other Party for any matter arising out of or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or disputes relating hereto (whether for breach of contract, tortious conduct or otherwise) the Parties shall attempt in good faith to settle the dispute through non-binding mediation under the auspices of the American Health Lawyers Association (“AHLA”). The Parties will jointly notify AHLA of their intent to use the mediation service, select a mediator from the AHLA roster, and mediate pursuant to the terms of the AHLA’s Agreement to Mediate. In the event the Parties cannot agree on a third-party mediator within fourteen (14) days, the mediator shall be selected by the AHLA. The mediation will be convened in Washington, D.C.  The Parties shall pay the expenses of the

mediator on an equal basis.  If the dispute cannot be resolved by nonbinding mediation within thirty (30) days following the end of the good faith period, any Party may choose to pursue any other remedies.
25.18    Specific Enforcement. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the Parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties will be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

Exhibit B
Payment Processing Services


Payment Processing Policies. CVS shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that CVS and Pharmacy Personnel comply with the following requirements:
		
	1.
	Charges for which Payment Processing Services are engaged must relate only to valid and legitimate purchases by Patients of CVS Products or Pharmacy Services actually provided at and by the Pharmacy submitting the charges.


		
	2.
	Payment Processing Services can only be used for payment immediately after the purchases for which charges are imposed and cannot be used for past due amounts or amounts billed to a Patient for payment in the future.


		
	3.
	No fees or other charges or conditions will be imposed upon a Patient for the use by a Patient of a credit, debit or pre-paid card to pay at the Target POS in the Pharmacy unless permitted as a Target Operating Standard.


		
	4.
	Prompts on the Target POS equipment provided must be followed.


		
	5.
	Patients will be given a receipt for all payments for which Payment Processing Services are engaged as may be required by applicable payment card network rules.


		
	6.
	Payment Processing Services may not be engaged for cash advances unless permitted as a Target Operating Standard.


		
	7.
	Any and all additional procedures and policies provided by Target to CVS relating to Payment Processing Services, provided such procedures and policies are reasonable or are required by a payment network, acquiring bank, settling bank or any other entity with rights to impose such procedures and policies upon CVS.


		
	8.
	If CVS becomes aware that the Target POS or any portion thereof is lost, stolen, damaged, tampered with or subject to unauthorized use, CVS shall immediately (or cause Pharmacy Personnel to immediately) notify Target of such occurrence.  Such notice shall be provided to Target both according to the terms of Section 25.8 and by sending an email to security@target.com.


Special Amendment to Bank Card Processing Agreements. Target is a party to bank card merchant agreements and corresponding amendments to facilitate payment processing.  To the extent required by any bank card processor, CVS agrees to enter into special amendments to those bank card merchant agreements and corresponding amendments to allow for the Payment Processing Services (“Special Amendments”) , provided that such Special Amendments shall not relate to transactions that are not subject to Payment Processing Services through the Target POS in a Pharmacy. Notwithstanding the commercially reasonable standard in this Exhibit, CVS agrees that it will comply with any obligations under the Special Amendments, and, to the extent applicable, CVS will ensure that applicable Pharmacy Personnel comply with obligations applicable to them under the Special Amendments and their use of the Payment Processing Services.

POLICY


Target Corporation restricts the use of its parking lots and facilities to business use only. Individuals not employed by Target or by a Target vendor providing services to Target are prohibited from soliciting, distributing literature, selling merchandise, or holding events at all times anywhere on Target-owned property or leased property when Target has a right to exclude, including parking lots and sidewalks.  Please see Target’s No Solicitation/No Distribution Policy for additional information applicable to solicitation by Target team members.


Some state laws protect limited forms of expressive activity in the common areas of large regional shopping centers. These protections generally do not apply to solicitation at or in front of Target stores, even if a store is located in a large regional shopping center.  Stores seeking assistance with solicitation should contact their Assets Protection Business Partner.

POLICY


Target wants to make sure all team members can work free of the distraction and pressure that may be created by solicitation and distribution. We also want to ensure our guests a distraction- free shopping experience. That's why Target maintains a No Solicitation/No Distribution Policy for all team members and others with authorized access to Target property.


The policy is simple: During working time (yours or your fellow team members’) you may not “solicit” team members. “Soliciting” includes things like asking co-workers to join organizations or pools, to buy memberships or subscriptions, or to make pledges or gifts to charities. “Working time” does not include meal and break periods (whether paid or unpaid), or any other time when a team member is not expected to be engaged in work activities.


The “No Distribution” part of the policy prohibits team members from distributing literature during
working time or in work areas at any time.


Individuals not employed by Target or by a Target vendor providing service to Target are prohibited from soliciting, distributing literature, selling merchandise, or holding events at all times anywhere on Target-owned property or leased property when the Company has a right to exclude, including parking lots and sidewalks.






As a limited exception to this Policy, because Target supports United Way and other non-profit grant partners, some of these organizations may be permitted to solicit or distribute information without violating this Policy; however, Employee Relations must approve the activity.


Contact Community Relations at community.relations@target.com for approval if your office wishes to conduct an annual drive.

Where a policy noted above shall be endorsed to include the other Party as an additional insured, the procuring Party shall deliver to the other Party a certificate of insurance on or prior to the Effective Date confirming such endorsement.
