Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
Effective August 1, 2024, Tivic Health Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) terminated that Fulfillment Services Agreement entered into by and between the Company and ALOM Technologies Corporation (“ALOM”) on November 25, 2022, as amended by the parties on March 5, 2024 (as amended, the “Agreement”), pursuant to which ALOM provided, on a non-exclusive basis, certain assembly, procurement, storage, returns, and fulfillment services (collectively, the “Services”) to the Company’s end customers and retailers within the United States. The Company terminated the Agreement for convenience, in accordance with the terms of the Agreement, in furtherance of its efforts to continue to reduce both direct and indirect costs associated with product manufacturing and distribution. The Company did not incur any material early termination penalties in connection with the termination of the Agreement. The Company is now utilizing third-party logistics and storage services from alternate suppliers without material minimums and has established in-house assembly and testing capabilities. The Company completed the transition with no disruptions to service and foresees current capacity will be sufficient to meet demand for the foreseeable future.
During the term of the Agreement, ALOM completed the Services in accordance with purchase orders issued by the Company from time to time. The consideration payable by the Company to ALOM for Services rendered was calculated and invoiced based on fixed hourly rates and fixed unit pricing, as applicable, subject to certain exceptions; provided that, commencing April 1, 2023, the Company became subject to a $25,000 minimum monthly purchase requirement, which minimum monthly purchase requirement, as well as account management charges, were waived for the period from January 2024 through June 2024. The initial term of the Agreement was scheduled to end on December 31, 2024, with automatic annual renewals thereafter, unless sooner terminated or cancelled in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Agreement.
