On May 28, 2013, Cumberland Pharmaceuticals Inc., or the Company, received executed copies of the First Amendment ("First Amendment") to the Exclusive Distribution Agreement with Cardinal Health 105, Inc., ("Agreement") that was originally entered into on August 9, 2010 and included as an exhibit to the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 13, 2010. The Amendment primarily serves to extend the term of the Agreement through June 30, 2016 and revises the fee schedule under the Agreement. Combined, the Agreement and Amendment appoint Cardinal Health 105, Inc., or Cardinal, as the exclusive distribution agent for Acetadote, Caldolor and Kristalose in the United States, Puerto Rico and other countries. Under the Amendment, Cumberland engages Cardinal to assist with its physician sample orders based on the Prescription Drug Marketing Act of 1987 (the “PDMA”) for samples shipping. The Amendment also extends the initial term through June 30, 2016 and it remains terminable by either party upon 120 days notice. After June 30, 2016, the contract is automatically renewed on a year-to-year basis that is terminable by either party with ninety days notice. Under the Amendment and Agreement, Cardinal agrees to provide various services, including storage, distribution, returns, customer support, and system access support to the Company in connection with the distribution of its products under certain guidelines at established fees. The foregoing is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amendment, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.7.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
