| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1 - ORGANIZATION'S MISSION | Civica's mission is to enhance availability and affordability of quality generic injectables for patients, especially high needs populations, by (1) alleviating drug shortages and (2) providing these drugs at a sustainable and affordable price level, both via its member hospital systems as well as non-member organizations including non-member covered entities like 340B hospitals and additionally, government organizations including Veterans Affairs and Department of Defense. FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICE, LINE 2 Refer below to the narrative for Part III, Line 4b and Part III, Line 4c for a detailed description of the two new program services for 2020. FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICE, LINE 4A GENERIC DRUG DISTRIBUTION Develop an open and growing network of hospitals to expand the reach of Civica's mission and its benefits to both members and non-members. Alleviate shortages of essential drug products and stabilize pricing by securing availability from existing manufacturers for the benefit of patients served by these members and non-member customers. Civica's major accomplishments to date include the following: (1) Customer growth covering more than 30% of U.S. licensed hospital beds. New customers enrolled include nationwide non-member 340B hospitals that serve a disproportionate patient population of high-needs patients, Veterans Affairs hospitals and Department of Defense. During the COVID-19 pandemic, in addition to serving the needs of hospital systems for 11 emergency medications, Civica also supplied 2.1 million units of essential medicines from its inventory to the United States government for building the strategic national stockpile. (2) Launched 41 essential medicines with more than 58 presentations as of December 2020; these medications were deemed in short supply per FDA drug shortage list or per ASHP drug shortage list. When the COVID-19 pandemic hit the U.S., Civica was one of the few companies that had sufficient availability of these essential medications to serve the hospitals that needed these medications. (3) Established and maintained approximately 6 months of finished goods inventory to buffer any supply chain shocks typically experienced in the industry for essential sterile injectable medicines. (4) Single transparent affordable pricing to all members and non-members regardless of membership status, size of the hospital, volume of drugs purchased from Civica or relationship longevity with Civica. FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICE, LINE 4B FILL - FINISH FACILITY After the emergence of COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting spike in demand for essential medications in hospitals to manage the patient surge, there was a higher recognition of dependence of United States on foreign manufacturers for these life-saving essential medications, especially sterile injectables. In an effort to on-shore end-to-end manufacturing of such sterile injectables and as a national security measure, Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority ("BARDA"), a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services ("HHS") government office responsible for the procurement and development of medical countermeasures, principally against bioterrorism, including chemical, biological, radiological and nuclear threats, as well as pandemic influenza and emerging diseases awarded a certain Contract ("Prime Contract") to Phlow Corp., ("Phlow"). Phlow is a Delaware Public Benefit Corporation engaged in the business of the research, development, and commercialization of pharmaceutical products. Given Civica's experience and expertise in the area, Phlow has subcontracted certain of its obligations under the Prime Contract to Civica whereby Civica will qualify, design, build, equip, operate and own a 120,000 square foot, two-story, cGMP compliant aseptic fill-finish facility ("Fill-Finish Facility"), to be funded, at least partially, with $100,000,000 provided by BARDA, capable of, among other things providing at least 90 million aseptic or terminally sterilized vials and 50 million pre-filled syringes annually. During 2020, Civica started activities on design and construction of the Fill-Finish Facility. Civica intends to use the Fill-Finish Facility to, among other things, (1) manufacture sterile injectables in furtherance of its Generic Drug Distribution program identified previously, (2) support the needs of the U.S. government for any future pandemics or similar emergencies and (3) provide surplus manufacturing capacity to other U.S.-based sterile injectable manufacturers who serve the needs of the country for shortage medications. FORM 990, PART III - PROGRAM SERVICE, LINE 4C OUT-PATIENT SERVICES On or about January 23, 2020, Civica announced an arrangement with the Blue Cross Blue Shield Association ("BCBSA") and a number of independent Blue Cross and Blue Shield companies ("BCBSs with BCBSA, the "Blues"). The arrangement involved the creation of a new business entity, CivicaScript, dedicated to lowering the cost of select outpatient generic medications in response to the impact of high drug costs on the health of Americans and the overall affordability of health care by developing and manufacturing generic outpatient medications. In furtherance of the arrangement, on or about January 27, 2020, Civica caused CivicaScript to be organized as a Delaware limited liability company to promote public benefits, including promotion of availability of affordable outpatient generic drugs. CivicaScript, a statutory public benefit LLC under Delaware law, is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Based on market and other research by CivicaScript, as approved by its board, CivicaScript is currently in the process of developing generic versions of certain medications. In alignment with CivicaScript's founding mission, these generic medications will be sold to Civica-affiliated hospitals, all "340B hospitals,", all Veterans Affairs ("VA") hospitals, and broadly to retailers. Civica, Inc. entered into a Services Agreement effective September 1, 2020 with CivicaScript. Civica, Inc. is a NONCONTROLLING member of CivicaScript. The provisions of this agreement allow for Civica, Inc. to provide CivicaScript with administrative support and other services to enable the public to realize the benefits CivicaScript intends to provide. These services include executive management services, professional assistance, risk management, quality & regulatory support and oversight, finance & accounting services, and data analytics. The organization incurred costs and allocated these shared expenses per the provisions of the service agreement in the amount of $2,370,587 for FY2020. FORM 990,PART V, LINE 6B Civica's contributions come solely as one-time contributions from members interested in joining Civica. These members are informed as part of the communication that Civica is a Section 501(c)(4) organization and contributions to such organizations are not deductible as charitable contributions. Outside of such regular communication to potential members, Civica doesn't make a formal express statement to this effect. Other than the one-time contribution received from its members, Civica does not solicit contributions from the general public. |

Civica also engages an independent, third party executive compensation consultant to provide comparability data and other guidance on a periodic basis. The use of an independent, third party executive compensation consultant last occurred in 2019. The President/CEO serves Civica in that role without being paid "reportable compensation" as is reflected in Part VII of the Form 990. |
