Comvita will place orders for OTC Products with Derma Sciences.  Each order will be in writing, will be sent by facsimile, email or other electronic means approved by Derma Sciences, and will specify:
 
 
(i)
the date of the order;
 
 
(ii)
the volume and type of OTC Products ordered; and
 
 
(iii)
a delivery date for the OTC Products.
 
 
 (b)
Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, Comvita will place all orders for OTC Products at least twelve (12) weeks in advance of the date that Comvita wishes such OTC Products to arrive at its premises.

(ii)
neither party will be permitted to cancel or vary such order without the other party’s written consent, unless otherwise expressly permitted under this Agreement.
 
 
 (c)
For the avoidance of doubt, each order will constitute a separate contract and any default by Derma Sciences in relation to any one order will not entitle Comvita to treat this Agreement as terminated (provided that if such default in and of itself would constitute a material breach of this Agreement because of the volume of product ordered, then this shall not restrict the right of Comvita to exercise its rights under clause 12.2).
 
5.

Rolling forecasts:  Comvita will supply to Derma Sciences on or before 31 March and 30 September of each year a rolling 12 month forecast of Comvita’s anticipated requirements for each OTC Product.
