ORDER

The opinion filed on March 22, 2006 is amended as fol- lows: on slip opinion page 3046, lines 10-16, the following sentences are deleted: “AmerisourceBergen contends, how- ever that the contracts for sale of Epogen and other drugs

4563 4564 AMERISOURCEBERGEN v. DIALYSIST WEST were not separate contracts. Because the Vendor Agreement signed by Dialysist West permits AmerisourceBergen to return any goods to Dialysist West for “full credit,” Ameri- sourceBergen believes it was justified in applying the credit it held for the counterfeit Epogen purchases against its out- standing debts.”

The following sentences are added on slip opinion page 3046, at line 10: “AmerisourceBergen concedes that the con- tracts for sale of Epogen and the other drugs were separate contracts. But because the Vendor Agreement signed by Dia- lysist West permits AmerisourceBergen to return any goods to Dialysist West for “full credit,” AmerisourceBergen believes it was justified in applying the credit it held for the counterfeit Epogen purchases against its outstanding debts.”
