Seller’s obligation to effect shipment of the Products and Instruments shall be fully discharged and all title (for purchased items) and risk of loss or damage (for all items) shall pass to Purchaser when the Products are delivered to a carrier for shipment to Purchaser.

Any Products not rejected by Purchaser by written notice to Seller within such period shall be deemed accepted.  Purchaser shall promptly report to Seller any shortage, damage, or discrepancy in or to a shipment of Products discovered by Purchaser during such ten (10) day acceptance period and furnish written evidence or other documentation that Seller deems appropriate.  If the substantiating evidence delivered by Purchaser demonstrates to Seller’s satisfaction that such shortage, damage or discrepancy existed at the time of delivery of the Products to the carrier, Seller shall, at its discretion, promptly deliver additional or substitute Products to Purchaser at Seller’s expense or issue a credit to Purchaser.  

5.Product Return.    Except as provided in this Section, Purchaser may not return any Product to Seller for any reason without Seller’s prior written consent.

8.Term and Termination. The term of this Agreement commences on the Effective Date and, unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, shall continue in effect for an initial Term of one (1) year; thereafter, the Agreement shall renew for additional one (1) year periods until it is terminated by either Party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

12.Protection of Confidential Information.  During the Term of this Agreement and thereafter, Purchaser shall:

(a)protect and safeguard the confidentiality of Seller’s Confidential Information with at least the same degree of care as Purchaser would protect its own Confidential Information, but in no event with less than a commercially reasonable degree of care;

(b)not use Seller’s Confidential Information, or permit it to be accessed or used, for any purpose other than to exercise its rights or perform its obligations under this Agreement; and

(c)not disclose any such Confidential Information to any Person, except to Purchaser’s Representatives who need to know the Confidential Information to assist Purchaser, or act on its behalf, to exercise its rights or perform its obligations under this Agreement.

Purchaser shall be responsible for any breach of this Section 12 by any of its representatives.

13.Medical Device Reporting Requirements.  Purchaser shall provide such assistance and information as Seller and/or its Suppliers reasonably request to comply with the Medical Device Reporting requirements set forth in 21 C.F.R. Part 803, as may be amended from time to time (the “MDR”), for the Products.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Purchaser shall:  (1) immediately transmit to Seller all oral or written complaints regarding the Products that are received by Purchaser; (2) keep and maintain a record of all complaints received by Purchaser relating to the Products that are required to be maintained by Purchaser pursuant to 21 C.F.R. § 803.18; (3) notify Seller upon receipt of any information that indicates material safety concern with respect to the Products; and (4) otherwise cooperatively undertake investigations, provide information and analysis, and conduct such follow-up activities as reasonably requested by Seller and its Suppliers.  It is the sole responsibility of Seller and/or its Suppliers to file Medical Device Reports, Vigilance Reports and other similar reports to any legal authority with respect to the Products in order to comply with the applicable laws and regulations.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Purchaser is required by any applicable law or regulation to report medical device incidents, nothing in this Agreement shall prevent Purchaser from doing so; provided, however, that Purchaser shall immediately provide Seller with prior notice of such reporting (to the extent legally permissible) and provide Seller with copies of any such filings or reports (to the extent legally permissible).

14.Compliance with U.S. Food and Drug Administration Recall Policy.  If recall or modification of any of the Products listed on Schedule 1 is required by the FDA or voluntarily recommended or required by the Seller, Seller shall, at its sole cost and expense, immediately notify Purchaser in writing of such recall or modification; and at no additional charge to Purchaser replace such Product with Product which have been evaluated and accepted by Purchaser as clinically comparable. In order to assure compliance with FDA Recall policies, the Purchaser will provide Seller with a record of each surgery in which Seller’s Suppliers’ respective Products sold to Purchaser have been implanted.  Seller and Purchaser will fully comply with all requirements of HIPAA including safeguarding the names and medical records of patients.  The information required to be reported to Seller by Purchaser will be the Hospital Proof of Delivery form or a Charge Sheet from the Purchaser which must include the date of surgery, the name of the hospital

in which the surgery was performed, the name of the surgeon performing the surgery and a list of products implanted by unit catalog number, lot number and sterility expiration date.  The first name and first initial of the patient’s last name will also be included, but the full name of the patient will be retained by Purchaser and immediately reported to Seller in the event of an actual recall of the implanted products.  Failure of the Purchaser to  provide this information may cause Seller to delay shipment of replacement / restock products to Purchaser until such information has been provided.  In the event of any recall notice issued by Seller or the FDA, Seller shall send such notice to the Seller contact info specified in the Notice section of this Agreement.

15.NO LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INDIRECT DAMAGES.  EXCEPT FOR A PARTY’S LIABILITY FOR BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY OR ITS REPRESENTATIVES BE LIABLE FOR CONSEQUENTIAL, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR ENHANCED DAMAGES, LOST PROFITS OR REVENUES OR DIMINUTION IN VALUE, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO ANY BREACH OF THIS AGREEMENT, REGARDLESS OF (A) WHETHER SUCH DAMAGES WERE FORESEEABLE, (B) WHETHER OR NOT IT WAS ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES AND (C) THE LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY (CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE) UPON WHICH THE CLAIM IS BASED, AND NOTWITHSTANDING THE FAILURE OF ANY AGREED OR OTHER REMEDY OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

16.MAXIMUM LIABILITY FOR DIRECT DAMAGES. EXCEPT FOR OBLIGATIONS TO MAKE PAYMENT UNDER THIS AGREEMENT, OR LIABILITY FOR BREACH OF CONFIDENTIALITY, IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER PARTY’S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AGREEMENT, WHETHER ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO BREACH OF CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT PAID TO  SELLER PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT DURING THE TWELVE MONTH PERIOD PRIOR TO THE DATE THE CAUSE OF ACTION AROSE, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER SELLER HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

17.Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including and together with all orders, exhibits, schedules, attachments and appendices, constitutes the sole and entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter contained herein and therein, and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous understandings, agreements, representations and warranties, both written and oral, with respect to such subject matter. 

18.Survival. Where the Parties’ rights and obligations under this Agreement by their terms or by their nature extend or are contemplated to extend beyond the end of the Term, they will be deemed to survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement for as long as necessary to give full force and effect to such rights and obligations of the Parties.
