RXS may also invoice PARTNER for amounts refunded to a USER, PBM/MERCHANT or third party, including refunds made after termination or expiration of this Agreement. PARTNER shall immediately pay in full all RXS invoices with respect to USER, PBM/MERCHANT or third party refunds. If RXS makes a refund to a USER or other third party after paying PARTNER a PARTNER COMMISSION in connection with a TRANSACTION that is the subject of the refund, PARTNER shall promptly pay RXS for the refunded amount less any applicable RXS commission that was paid (if applicable).

9.7 RXS agrees to maintain complete and accurate financial books and records to substantiate RXS’s payments to PARTNER under Schedule 1 (Commercial Terms). RXS shall preserve such books and records for a period of at least two years from the time each payment is made to PARTNER, or such longer period as may be required by applicable law.

Any such audit shall only cover a period up to the date sixty (60) days prior to the date upon which the audit is carried out. Any review of RXS’ books and records associated with an audit pursuant to this Section 9.8 of the AGREEMENT shall be conducted at RXS’ designated location during RXS’ normal business hours, upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice to RXS.

If the underpayment exceeds ten percent (10%) of the amount that should have been paid, then RXS shall also reimburse PARTNER for the reasonable costs of the audit.
