PLASMA PURCHASE AGREEMENT


 


THIS PLASMA PURCHASE AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) between Biotest Pharmaceuticals Corporation, a Delaware corporation, having a place of business at 5800 Park of Commerce Boulevard, NW, Boca Raton, Florida 33487 (“BPC”) and ADMA Biologics, Inc., a Delaware corporation, having a place of business at 65 Commerce Way, Hackensack, New Jersey 07601 (“ADMA”) shall be effective as of November 17, 2011 (the “Effective Date”).  BPC and ADMA are each sometimes referred to herein individually as a “Party” or collectively as the “Parties”.


 


RECITALS


 


WHEREAS, BPC desires to sell, and ADMA desires to purchase certain quantities of source plasma containing antibodies to Respiratory syncytial virus (“RSV” or “RSV Plasma”) to be used by ADMA in the manufacturing of a Human Immune Globulin (“Product”), solely on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement.


 


PROVISIONS


 


NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and with the intent to be legally bound hereby, ADMA and BPC agree as follows:


 


A.           PURCHASE AND SALE OF RSV PLASMA.


 


1.           TERM OF AGREEMENT.  Unless terminated earlier as provided herein, the term of this Agreement shall be for a period of ten (10) years from the Effective Date (the “Initial Term”).  After the Initial Term, this Agreement may be renewed for two (2) additional five (5) year periods upon the mutual consent of the Parties.  Each Party agrees that it will endeavor, in good faith, to conclude any negotiations relating to such renewals no less than one (1) year before the expiration of this Agreement.


 


2.           PRICE AND VOLUMES.


 


a.           From and after the Effective Date of this Agreement, ADMA agrees to purchase, and BPC agrees to sell RSV Plasma, in quantities and prices set forth by way of annual forecasts as further described in this Agreement.


 


b.           During the term of this Agreement and subject to the terms of this Agreement, ADMA agrees to purchase and BPC agrees to sell to ADMA a minimum of [***] liters of RSV Plasma per Period (“Start Up Minimum Volume”) until the earlier of such time (i) as ADMA receives Biologics License Application (BLA) approval from the United States Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) or (ii) March 31, 2016.  Upon the earlier of the receipt of said FDA approval or March 31, 2016, and during the term of this Agreement and subject to the terms of this Agreement, ADMA agrees to purchase and BPC agrees to sell to ADMA, a minimum of [***] liters of RSV Plasma per Period (“Annual Minimum Volume”); it being acknowledged that the Annual Minimum Volume shall be in lieu of the Start Up Minimum Volume.  Each period shall commence on April 1st and terminate on March 31st of the following year (the “Period”).  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, ADMA shall not be obligated to purchase the Start Up Minimum Volume or the Annual Minimum Volume in the event BPC ceases to provide necessary plasma samples for testing and identifying donors.


 




  





  











  






 


During the term of this Agreement and subject to the terms of this Agreement, ADMA agrees to purchase its RSV Plasma exclusively from BPC.  For avoidance of doubt, ADMA may collect RSV Plasma at up to five (5) ADMA owned and operated plasma centers, provided ADMA purchases the minimum quantities and the annual forecasted amount as set forth in this section and Section B (3) respectively.


 


The Parties mutually agree and understand that identifying sufficient donors with naturally occurring RSV antibody levels vary.  The Parties mutually agree that this naturally occurring variation may, due to no fault of BPC or ADMA, affect total acceptable RSV Plasma volumes.  In the event that BPC cannot fulfill ADMA’s requirements for RSV Plasma, ADMA is permitted to purchase any additional plasma from other sources until such time BPC can meet ADMA’s plasma requirements.


 


Moreover, the Parties understand that, due to supervening business circumstances and a volatile market, it may be commercially difficult to attain the minimum purchase requirements set forth in this Agreement.  Accordingly, the Parties mutually agree to modify such minimum purchase requirements in an equitable manner should such circumstances arise.


 


c.           Beginning on the Effective Date of this Agreement through March 31, 2012 pricing for RSV Plasma will be [***] per liter.  For the period April 1, 2012 through March 31, 2013, the price for RSV Plasma will be [***] per liter plus the change in price of [***] as described under this Section 2(d).  This price includes all required screening tests, and NAT for HIV, HBV, HCV, HAV and [***].


 


d.           Pricing for RSV Plasma for the period after March 31, 2013 will be based on the price previously in effect adjusted in proportion to the percentage increase in the [***] Index, [***], U.S. City Average, All items, Base 1982-84 = 100, published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics (“[***]”) as of the December 31st of the previous calendar year.


 


e.           In the event one or more new government regulation, required test, quality procedure or change in the Specifications (hereinafter defined) requested by ADMA (any of the foregoing being a “Required Change”) is required but is not contemplated in this Agreement and results in a material increase to BPC actual costs to procure, store, provide and supply the RSV Plasma, both Parties shall re-negotiate the change in the purchase price in good faith within ninety (90) days of the Required Change, which shall be retroactive to the effective date of the Required Change.


 


3.           PAYMENT TERMS.  Subject to Section C hereof, all RSV Plasma shall be paid within [***] days from the date of the invoice.  Any late payment made by ADMA shall accrue interest to be paid at the rate of 12% per annum, subject to the maximum allowed by law.  Invoice to be issued upon shipping from the BPC plasma center.  All payments due hereunder to BPC shall be sent to BPC at the times set forth herein by wire transfer to such accounts as BPC may designate to ADMA.

B.           QUALITY AND QUANTITY OF RSV PLASMA.


 


1.           BPC shall provide ADMA, at no cost to ADMA, plasma samples in amounts and at times mutually agreed upon by ADMA and BPC to enable ADMA to test and identify plasma donors suitable for producing RSV Plasma for ADMA in accordance with the ADMA Specifications, attached hereto as Exhibit B and incorporated by reference.  Based on said testing, ADMA shall identify plasma donors whom ADMA has tested as suitable for producing RSV Plasma in accordance with ADMA Specifications (“Acceptable Donors”).  BPC shall produce RSV Plasma for ADMA based on the number of Acceptable Donors identified by ADMA.  ADMA’s acceptance of the donor shall constitute ADMA’s acceptance of RSV Plasma.  ADMA shall bear the cost of shipping said samples to their designated testing laboratory.


 


2.           Once ADMA has identified a donor as an Acceptable Donor and notified BPC in writing of such designation, ADMA agrees to purchase all RSV Plasma collected from the Acceptable Donor until it notifies BPC in writing that the donor is no longer an Acceptable Donor or ADMA’s quantity requirements have been met.  The Parties shall discuss ongoing quantity requirements and BPC will make any corresponding order adjustments prospectively, however, ADMA is obligated to purchase all RSV Plasma from Acceptable Donors that BPC has collected.  ADMA may, within [***] prior written notice, terminate Acceptable Donor status for any donor at any time at its sole discretion.  ADMA will not be obligated to purchase RSV Plasma from donors who are not Acceptable Donors or have been dropped as Acceptable Donors following ADMA’s [***] written drop notification.  ADMA will be obligated to purchase any RSV Plasma collected through the drop notification period.  Business days are defined as Monday through Friday 9 am to 5 pm, with weekends and holidays (applicable to each plasma center) specifically excluded.

3.           ADMA shall, at least ninety (90) days prior to the beginning of each calendar year, deliver to BPC a good faith forecast of ADMA’s order for the ensuing year and an estimated shipment timetable for the quantity of the RSV Plasma to be purchased for the ensuing year.  This forecast shall be binding up to [***] of the annual forecasted amount, subject to the annual minimum, as set forth in Section A(2)(b), unless otherwise agreed to in writing by both Parties, except as set forth in Section B 2 above.  At the beginning of each calendar quarter, following the identification of Acceptable Donors, ADMA shall give BPC a firm purchase commitment, based on Acceptable Donors.  If greater quantities are required, BPC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to supply the difference from Acceptable Donors.


 


4.           BPC shall have no obligation to provide RSV Plasma to ADMA in the event the failure to provide the agreed upon quantity is due to a Force Majeure event pursuant to Section F or the unavailability of Acceptable Donors.


 


5.           Post donor acceptance, ADMA shall bear the expense of unusable RSV Plasma due to a recall, or the destruction of any RSV Plasma due to post-donation “look back” issues in accordance with FDA regulations and guidance.


 



C.           LIMITED WARRANTY.




 


1.    BPC represents and warrants to ADMA that RSV Plasma has been collected and produced in accordance with ADMA Specifications and BPC approved SOP’s.  BPC represents, warrants and agrees that any and all RSV Plasma shall be collected, produced and delivered in accordance with all local, state and national laws, regulations and requirements.  ADMA shall have all rights and remedies available to it under this Agreement and shall not be obligated to buy or pay for any RSV Plasma which does not, in all respects, comply with the ADMA Specifications and applicable law, rules and regulations and as otherwise required by this Agreement, provided ADMA must submit notification of rejection within [***] of receipt of such RSV Plasma.  This warranty shall be further limited by the expiry of the RSV Plasma and shall not apply to any expired RSV Plasma.


 


EXCEPT AS OTHERWISE SET FORTH HEREIN, BPC MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS NOR EXTENDS ANY WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, WITH RESPECT TO PRODUCT, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY


 


D.           MISCELLANEOUS.


 


1.           CONFIDENTIALITY.


 


a.           The Parties agree to maintain the confidentiality of the contents of this Agreement and the dealings between the Parties with the same degree of care as they use to protect their own proprietary, confidential or trade secret information.
