 (e) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Company may, by written notice to the Seller, require
that the Security Holders immediately cease the sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Registration Statement if the Company’s Board of Directors determines in good faith that, due to pending material corporate developments, it is in
the best interests of the shareholders of the Company to suspend the use of the Registration Statement. Upon receipt of such notice, the Security Holders shall immediately discontinue any sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration
Statement until copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus and any additional or supplemental filings that are incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference in such Prospectus have been made available to the Security Holders on
Commission’s EDGAR database or otherwise, or until the Seller is advised in writing by the Company that the then-current Prospectus may be used. The Company’s rights under this Section 2.1(e) may be exercised for a period of no more

Seller true and complete copies of all correspondence from and to the Commission relating to the Registration Statement.

there will be a “review” of the Registration Statement; (ii) the Commission comments in writing on the Registration Statement (in which case the Company shall deliver to the Seller a copy 

  

 4 








 
of such comments and of all written responses thereto); (iii) the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment is declared effective;
(iv) the Commission or any other Federal or state governmental authority requests any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus or requests additional information related thereto; (v) the Commission issues any
stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement or initiates any proceedings for that purpose; (vi) the Company receives notice of any suspension of the qualification or exemption from qualification of the Registrable
Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, or the initiation or threat of any proceeding for such purpose; or (vii) any revision to the Registration Statement or Prospectus as supplemented or amended is required so that it will not contain any
untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 (d) Use its commercially reasonable efforts to avoid the issuance of or, if issued, obtain the withdrawal of (i) any order suspending
the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, or (ii) any suspension of the qualification (or exemption from qualification) of any of the Registrable Securities for sale in any jurisdiction, at the earliest practicable moment. 
 (e) Upon request, make available to the Seller, without charge, at least one conformed copy of the Registration Statement and each

incorporated by reference) promptly after the filing of such documents with the Commission. 
 (f) Promptly deliver to the
Security Holders, without charge, as many copies of the Prospectus and each amendment or supplement thereto as the Security Holders may reasonably request. 
 (g) (i) In the time and manner required by the primary Trading Market, prepare and file with such Trading Market any required additional shares listing application covering all of the Registrable Securities;
(ii) take all commercially reasonable steps necessary to cause such Registrable Securities to be approved for listing on each Trading Market as soon as possible thereafter; (iii) provide to the Seller evidence of such listing; and
(iv) use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of such Registrable Securities on each such Trading Market or another Eligible Market. 
 (h) Use commercially reasonably efforts to register or qualify or cooperate with the Security Holders in connection with the registration
or qualification (or exemption from such registration or qualification) of such Registrable Securities for offer and sale under the securities or blue sky laws of such jurisdictions within the United States as the Seller requests in writing, to keep
each such registration or qualification (or exemption therefrom) effective during the Effectiveness Period and to do any and all other acts or things reasonably necessary or advisable to enable the disposition in such jurisdictions of the
Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement; 

  

 5 








 
provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to file any general consent to service of process or to qualify as a foreign
corporation or as a dealer in securities in any jurisdiction in which it is not so qualified or to subject itself to taxation in respect of doing business in any jurisdiction in which it is not otherwise subject. 
 (i) Cooperate with the Security Holders to facilitate the timely preparation and delivery of certificates representing Registrable
Securities to be delivered to a transferee pursuant to the Registration Statement, which certificates shall be free, to the extent permitted by this Agreement and applicable law, of all restrictive legends, and to enable such Registrable Securities
to be in such denominations and registered in such names as the Security Holders may request. 
 (j) Upon the occurrence of
any event described in Section 2.2(c)(vii), as promptly as reasonably possible, prepare a supplement or amendment, including a post-effective amendment, to the Registration Statement or a supplement to the related Prospectus or any document
incorporated or deemed to be incorporated therein by reference, and file any other required document so that the Registration Statement will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading and that the Prospectus, as thereafter delivered will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in
the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 
 2.3 Obligations of the Security Holders. Each Security
Holder agrees that he or she will comply with the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act as applicable to it in connection with sales of Registrable Securities pursuant to the Registration Statement. Each Security Holder further
agrees that, upon receipt by Seller of a notice from the Company pursuant to Section 2.1(e) or upon receipt by Seller of notice from the Company of the occurrence of any event of the kind described in Sections 2.2(c)(v), (vi) or (vii), the
Security Holders will discontinue the disposition of Registrable Securities under the Registration Statement until the Security Holders’ receipt of the copies of the supplemented Prospectus and/or amended Registration Statement contemplated by
Section 2.2(j), or until Seller is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the then-current Prospectus may be resumed. The Company may provide appropriate stop orders to enforce the provisions of this Section 2.3. 
 2.4 Registration Expenses. The Company shall pay (or reimburse the Security Holders for) all fees and expenses incident to the performance of the
Company’s obligations under Sections 2.1 and 2.2, including without limitation (a) all registration and filing fees and expenses, including without limitation those related to filings with the Commission and in connection with applicable
state securities or Blue Sky laws, (b) printing expenses (including without limitation expenses of printing certificates for Registrable Securities and of printing prospectuses reasonably requested by the Security Holders), (c) fees and

(including, without limitation, transfer taxes) applicable to any disposition, sale or transfer of Registrable Securities by such Security Holder.

 2.5 Indemnification. 
 (a) Indemnification by the Company. The Company agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Security Holders against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses to which the Security Holders may become
subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or regulation insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are
based upon (i) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in any
of them a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements in any of them (in the case of the Prospectus only, in light of the circumstances under which they were made), not misleading, and will reimburse the Security
Holders for any legal and other expenses as such expenses are reasonably incurred by the Security Holders in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim, damage, liability, expense or action;
provided, however, that the Company will not be liable in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability or expense arises out of or is based upon (i) an untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission
or alleged omission made in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement or Prospectus in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of
PDI at or prior to the Closing or a Security Holder expressly for use therein or in any document incorporated by reference therein, (ii) the failure of a Security Holder to comply with the covenants and agreements contained in Section 2.3
of this Agreement, or (iii) any untrue statement or omission of a material fact in any Prospectus that is corrected in any subsequent Prospectus that was delivered to the Seller before the pertinent sale or sales by a Security Holder.

 (b) Indemnification by the Security Holders. The Security Holders, jointly and severally, will indemnify and hold
harmless the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who sign the Registration Statement and each person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of the Securities Act, against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or
expenses to which the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who sign the Registration Statement or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act, or any other federal or state statutory law or
regulation insofar as such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (or actions in respect thereof as contemplated below) arise out of or are based upon (i) any failure on the part of the Security Holders to comply with the covenants
and agreements contained in Sections 2.3 of this Agreement or (ii) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Registration Statement, the Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement to the Registration Statement
or Prospectus, or the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of the Prospectus only, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made), not misleading, in each case to the extent, 

  

 7 








 
but only to the extent, that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission was made in the Registration Statement, the
Prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto, in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished to the Company by or on behalf of PDI at or prior to the Closing or a Security Holder expressly for use therein or in any
document incorporated by reference therein, and the Security Holders, jointly and severally, will reimburse the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement or controlling person for any legal and other
expense reasonably incurred by the Company, each of its directors, each of its officers who signed the Registration Statement or controlling person in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such loss, claim,
damage, liability, expense or action for which such person is entitled to be indemnified in accordance with this Section 2.5(b). 
 (c) Indemnification Procedure. 
 (i) Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party
under this Section 2.5 of notice of the threat or commencement of any action, such indemnified party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against an indemnifying party under this Section 2.5, promptly notify the indemnifying
party in writing of the claim; but the omission so to notify the indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party for contribution or otherwise under the indemnity agreement contained in this
Section 2.5 except to the extent it is prejudiced as a result of such failure. 
 (ii) In case any such action is brought
against any indemnified party and such indemnified party seeks or intends to seek indemnity from an indemnifying party, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate in, and, to the extent that it may wish, jointly with all other
indemnifying parties similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof; provided, however, if the defendants in any such action include both the indemnified party and the indemnifying party and the indemnified party shall have
reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict between the positions of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party in conducting the defense of any such action or that there may be legal defenses available to it or other indemnified parties
that are different from or additional to those available to the indemnifying party, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to select separate counsel reasonably acceptable to the indemnifying party to assume such legal defenses and to
otherwise participate in the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party or parties. Upon receipt of notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense of such action, the
indemnifying party will not be liable to such indemnified party under this Section 2.5 for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by such indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof unless: 
 a) the indemnified party shall have employed such counsel in connection with the assumption of legal defenses in accordance with the
proviso to the preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one separate counsel, approved by 

  

 8 








 
such indemnifying party representing all of the indemnified parties who are parties to such action), or 
 b) the indemnifying party shall not have engaged counsel to represent the indemnified party (or both the indemnified and indemnifying
party, as applicable) within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of action, in each of which cases the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel to the indemnified party shall be at the expense of the indemnifying party. 
 (d) Contribution. If a claim for indemnification under this Section 2.5 is unavailable to an indemnified party (by reason of
public policy or otherwise), then each indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying such indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses
referred to in this Agreement, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party, respectively, in connection with the actions, statements or omissions that resulted in such losses,
claims, damages, liabilities or expenses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of such indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in
question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission of a material fact, has been taken or made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the
parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action, statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party under this Section 2.5(d) as a result of any losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in this Section 2.5, any reasonable attorneys’ or other reasonable fees or expenses incurred by such party in connection with any proceeding
to the extent such party would have been indemnified for such fees or expenses if the indemnification provided for in this Section was available to such party in accordance with its terms. 
 The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 2.5(d) were determined by pro rata
allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take into account the equitable considerations referred to in the immediately preceding paragraph. No party to this Agreement guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of
Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any other party to this Agreement who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. 
 ARTICLE 3. 
 MISCELLANEOUS 
 3.1 Effective Time; Termination. This Agreement shall become effective concurrent with the Closing, and shall be null and void, and no party
hereto shall have any obligation hereunder, if the Merger Agreement is terminated pursuant to its terms prior to the Closing. This Agreement may be terminated at any time by the mutual written consent of the Company and the Security Holders.
