(a) Except as provided by paragraphs (b) and (c) of this section, a
shipment or other delivery of a drug which is, in accordance with the
practice of the trade, to be processed, labeled, or repacked in
substantial quantity at an establishment other than that where
originally processed or packed, shall be exempt, during the time of
introduction into and movement in interstate commerce and the time of
holding in such establishment, from compliance with the labeling and
packaging requirements of sections 501(b) and 502 (b), (d), (e), (f),
and (g) of the act if:
(1) The person who introduced such shipment or delivery into
interstate commerce is the operator of the establishment where such drug
is to be processed, labeled, or repacked; or
(2) In case such person is not such operator, such shipment or
delivery is made to such establishment under a written agreement, signed
by and containing the post-office addresses of such person and such
operator, and containing such specifications for the processing,
labeling, or repacking, as the case may be, of such drug in such
establishment as will insure, if such specifications are followed, that
such drug will not be adulterated or misbranded within the meaning of
the act upon completion of such processing, labeling, or repacking. Such
person and such operator shall each keep a copy of such agreement until
2 years after the final shipment or delivery of such drug from such
establishment, and shall make such copies available for inspection at
