The PDI Commercialization Expenditures shall be primarily used for the [***] and establishing the reimbursement amount for commercial use of the [***] diagnostic test from Medicare and a nationally recognized third party insurance company. In no event shall PDI be obligated to initiate the [***] or otherwise incur any obligations, costs or expense unless and until [***] has been achieved or to pursue the [***] if and so long as the [***] is not continuing; provided, however, in the event of any delay or interruption in the [***] because of the lack of [***] may pursue any agreed-upon activities related to the [***] using its own funds, subject to reimbursement by PDI promptly after the achievement of [***] (so long as such reimbursement together with PDI’s other expenditures in furtherance of Commercialization efforts do not exceed $[***]).

In the event a dispute arises between the Parties regarding any portion of any invoice, PDI shall pay all undisputed portions of the invoice(s) while withholding payment of the disputed portions pending good faith resolution by the Parties, and such withholding shall not constitute a breach of this Agreement.

(g)At any time following achievement of [***], the Parties may agree (but shall not be obligated to agree) that PDI may begin limited marketing and/or promotional efforts in connection with the Licensed Product, the parameters and cost of which are to be agreed upon in advance by the Parties. PDI agrees to pay its own costs and expenses associated with its marketing and promotional efforts pursuant to this Section 2.1(g) and such costs and expenses shall not be considered PDI Commercialization Expenditures for purposes of this Agreement.

4.5.     TOTAL MILESTONE PAYMENTS; SET OFF. In no event shall the total Milestone Payments (including any Extension Fee paid pursuant to Section 10.2(c) exceed $6,000,000 in the aggregate. In addition, the total Milestone Payments payable by PDI shall be reduced by any and all payments made by PDI or its Affiliate(s) directly or indirectly through [***] to any third party (or parties) in connection with achieving and maintaining [***], either prior to Closing, or after Closing if required by commitments or contractual obligations made or agreed to by [***] prior to Closing, but including only payments that are reduced to a set or fixed known amount, and payable on a date certain, at the time of entering into the commitment to make such payments. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, there shall be no reduction to the Milestone Payments under this Section 4.5 (i) on account of the $1,500,000 payable to [***] under Section 2.2, or (ii) payments made to Cornell University under the Cornell License Agreements. Subject to Section 9.4(d), nothing in this Section 4.5 shall limit the PDI Indemnitees’ rights to indemnification pursuant to Article 9.

Article 5
ROYALTIES

5.1.    ROYALTY PAYMENTS. Subject to the terms hereof, if (and only if) the Closing of the Acquisition occurs following exercise of either the PDI Call Option or the [***] Put Option, as the case may be, then PDI shall pay [***] for further distribution to the [***] Shareholders royalty payments in accordance with the terms set forth below (collectively, the “Royalty Payments”).

(a)    A royalty based on the Net Revenue for each calendar year beginning January 1, 2015, by PDI and/or its Affiliate(s) as follows:

(i)    7.0% on such Net Revenue up to and equal to $50 million in each such calendar year;

(ii)    9.0% on such Net Revenue greater than $50 million and up to and equal to $100 million in each such calendar year; and

(iii)    11% on such Net Revenue greater than $100 million in each such calendar year.

(b)    The Royalty Payments payable by PDI shall be reduced by any and all payments made or to be made at or after Closing by PDI or its Affiliate(s), directly or indirectly through [***] , to any third party (or parties) in connection with achieving and maintaining [***], if required by commitments or contractual obligations made or agreed to by [***] prior to Closing, except to the extent that such amounts were withheld from the Milestone Payments in accordance with Section 4.5. If any payments to third parties as described above result in a reduction in royalty payments to Cornell University under the Cornell License Agreements as a result of the provisions in the Cornell License Agreements that permit reductions due to royalties paid to third parties (the amount of such reduction, the “Cornell Adjustment Amount”), then the Cornell Adjustment Amount shall be credited against any amount by which the Royalty Payments would otherwise be reduced under this Section 5.1(b). For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the aggregate amount of any reductions to the Royalties Payments under this Section 5.1(b) plus the Cornell Adjustment Amount exceed the amount of any payments made by PDI or its Affiliate(s), directly or indirectly through [***] , to any third party (or parties) in connection with achieving and

maintaining [***]. Subject to Section 9.4(d), nothing in this Section 5.1(b) shall limit the PDI Indemnitees’ rights to indemnification pursuant to Article 9.

(c)    Without the prior written consent of [***], neither PDI nor its Affiliates shall transfer, assign, sell, license or sub-license any rights under the Cornell License Agreements, including the Patent Rights, except (i) to an organization that PDI reasonably believes is capable of long-term performance of PDI’s obligations under this Article 5 and (ii) in such a way that requires any such transferee, assignee, purchaser, licensee or sub-licensee (collectively, a “Successor”) to assume, for the benefit of the [***] Shareholders, obligations of reporting, payment, record-keeping and audit equivalent to those imposed on PDI under this Article 5 (and subject to the same terms and other limitations herein), but for purposes of calculating the Royalty Payments payable by such Successor following such transfer, assignment, sale, license or sub-license of any rights under the Cornell License Agreements, as to any such Successor, such Successor’s equivalent “Net Revenue” shall be calculated based upon the sales or leases of Licensed Products by such party and its Affiliates; provided, however, that notwithstanding such transfer, assignment, sale, license or sub-license of any rights under the Cornell License Agreements, PDI’s obligations hereunder shall continue with respect to and to the extent of any rights under the Cornell License Agreements retained by PDI; provided further that in no event shall any such transfer, assignment, sale, license or sub-license be done for the purpose of adversely affecting the economic benefits to which the [***] Shareholders would otherwise be entitled under this Agreement.

5.2.    ROYALTY REPORTING AND PAYMENT.

(a)    Reporting. Commencing thirty days after the close of the calendar quarter beginning January 1, 2015, PDI shall submit to [***] quarterly reports describing the Net Revenue during the most recently completed calendar quarter and the Royalty Payments payable with respect thereto. If no amount is collected during any reporting period, a written statement to that effect shall be delivered to [***] within thirty days after the close of the applicable calendar quarter.

With the delivery of each report required under Section 5.2(a), PDI shall pay the Royalty Payments shown as due on such report.

(iii)    Any Royalty Payment payable under this Agreement, when overdue, shall bear interest at a rate per annum of three percent (3%) in excess of the Prime Rate as published by “The Wall Street Journal” at the time such payment is due and until payment is received by [***]. The accrual of such interest shall not foreclose [***] or the [***] Shareholders from exercising any other rights he or they may have resulting from the failure of PDI and/or its Affiliates to make the payment when due.

5.3.    TERM OF ROYALTY. Royalty Payments under this Article 5 shall be payable with respect to each calendar quarter through December 31, 2034, and the remaining obligations of PDI (and/or its Affiliates) under this Article 5 shall expire upon PDI’s satisfaction of all reporting and payment obligations with respect to such Royalty Payments; provided, however, Section 5.4 shall continue beyond such expiration in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, if [***] or any of his Affiliates breach any of the covenants contained in Section 5.3 of the Stock Purchase Agreement related to non-competition or non-solicitation, after PDI provides written notice of

13




such breach to [***],[***]’s pro rata portion of the Royalty Payments otherwise payable hereunder shall thereafter be paid into escrow until the claim of breach is resolved by (a) written agreement of PDI and [***] or (b) a final, non-appealable judgment or decree of any Governmental Body. If such resolution contemplates the payment of damages by [***] to PDI and/or its Affiliates, the funds paid into escrow shall be released first to PDI in an amount equal to the amount of such damages, and the remaining escrow funds, if any, shall then promptly be released to [***]. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all funds paid into escrow shall promptly be released to [***] if the dispute has not been resolved within 180 days after delivery by PDI of a notice of breach to [***], or such longer period as PDI and [***] may agree, if prior to the conclusion of such period neither PDI nor [***] has commenced a Legal Proceeding with respect to the alleged breach.

5.4.    RECORDS & AUDITS.

(a)    PDI shall keep, and shall require its Affiliates to keep, accurate and correct records of all Licensed Products manufactured, used, and sold and all Net Revenue relating thereto. Such records shall be retained by PDI for at least three (3) years following the conclusion of the reporting period to which such records relate.

(b)    PDI shall make all records relating to Net Revenue available during normal business hours for inspection and audit, upon the reasonable request and at the sole expense of [***], by a Certified Public Accountant reasonably selected by [***] for the sole purpose of verifying Net Revenue amounts for the applicable reporting period. Any such request for inspection and audit shall be made within three years after the close of the applicable reporting period or periods to be examined. PDI may require, in its reasonable discretion, that such Certified Public Accountants execute a confidentiality agreement in a customary form prior to being provided access to such PDI’s records. If the audit discloses a deficiency in the amounts owed to the [***] Shareholders under this Agreement, PDI shall pay to [***] such deficiency plus interest thereon in accordance with Section 5.2(b)(iii). In addition, if the audit discloses an underpayment of amounts owed in excess of five percent (5%) of the actual amount owed, PDI shall also reimburse [***] for the reasonable costs and expenses associated with the audit.

If the Indemnitor elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder or fails to notify the Indemnified Party of its election as herein provided, the Indemnified Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnified Party defends any Third Party Claim, then the Indemnitor shall promptly reimburse the Indemnified Party, for reasonable attorneys’ fees and other expenses of defending such Third Party Claim upon submission of periodic bills. The Parties shall, in connection with any Third Party Claim the Indemnitor has elected to defend against, compromise or settle, furnish such records, information as may be reasonably requested by the in connection therewith. The Indemnified Party may participate, through counsel chosen by it and at its own expense, in the defense of any Third Party Claim as to which the Indemnitor has so elected to conduct and control the defense compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnitor, and all reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs of defense incurred in the defense thereof will be paid promptly, if (i) so requested by the Indemnitor to participate or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor that would make such separate representation advisable; and provided, further, that the Indemnitor shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.6 to the contrary, neither the Indemnitor nor the Indemnified Party shall, without the written consent of the other party, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment unless the claimant or claimants and such party provide to such other party an unqualified release from all liability in respect of the Third Party Claim.

(b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 9.6(a), in the event of any claim for injunctive or other equitable relief against PDI that would if successful reasonably be expected to have a material and continuing effect on [***] , and for which PDI would be entitled to indemnification, PDI may assume the defense of such claim at the cost and expense of [***] .

9.7.    CALCULATION OF LOSSES

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, solely for purposes of Section 9.2 in determining the amount of any Losses and Expenses suffered or incurred by any PDI Indemnitee related to a breach of any representation or warranty of [***] , but not whether there has occurred any such breach, the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be considered without regard to any “material,” “Material Adverse Change” or similar qualifications set forth therein.

achieved on or before the Anniversary Date, or in the event PDI determines, in good faith, that Commercialization cannot be reasonably achieved within the Anniversary Date. In the event of such termination, [***] shall be obligated to pay PDI the sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) pursuant to a promissory note in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (the “Promissory Note”); provided, however, the principal amount of the Promissory Note shall be increased by the amount of any Extension Fee paid pursuant to Section 10.2(c). The Promissory Note shall bear interest at five percent (5%) per annum. Subject to the provisions below, the Promissory Note shall be a five (5) year note, with no payment of principal or interest due during the first twenty-four (24) months, and the cumulative balance payable in thirty-six (36) consecutive, equal monthly installments of principal and interest, commencing on the first day of the twenty-fifth (25th) full calendar month following the date of the termination notice. The Promissory Note will be subject to acceleration as set forth therein, including in the event of the receipt by [***] of $7,500,000 in funding on a cumulative basis (whether in the form of equity capital or other indebtedness convertible into equity capital), and can be prepaid at any time, in whole or in part, without penalty or premium. In addition, in the event of the receipt by [***] of $5,000,000 in funding on a cumulative basis (whether in the form of equity capital or other indebtedness convertible into equity capital) during the first twenty-four months, payment of the Promissory Note in consecutive, equal monthly installments of principal and interest will commence on the first day of the next calendar month following the date of such funding, with the monthly payment computed so that the Promissory Note will be fully amortized and paid in sixty (60) months after its initial issuance.

(b)    [***] shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, at any time prior to the exercise of the PDI Call Option, upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to PDI, in the event that Commercialization is achieved and PDI neither has exercised the PDI Call Option nor elects to so exercise before the expiration of such 30-day termination notice period. In the event of such termination, [***] shall be obligated to pay PDI the sum of (i) One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000), plus (ii) the PDI Commercialization Expenditures, plus (iii) any Extension Fee paid pursuant to Section 10.2(c), the aggregate of such amounts to be paid pursuant to a promissory note identical to the Promissory Note except that the principal amount shall be the amount stated in this paragraph.

(c)    [***] shall have the right to terminate this Agreement, at any time prior to the exercise of the PDI Call Option, upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to PDI, in the event that Commercialization is not achieved within twelve months after the Effective Date, and PDI neither has exercised the PDI Call Option nor elects to so exercise before the expiration of such 30-day termination notice period. In the event of such termination, [***] shall be obligated to pay PDI the sum of One Million Dollars ($1,000,000) pursuant to a promissory note identical to the Promissory Note required by Section 10.2(a). PDI shall have the right to extend for six (6) months the effective date of termination under this Section 10.2(c) by making a payment to [***] of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) (the “Extension Fee”) before the expiration of such 30-day termination notice period. If the Extension Fee is paid, and if thereafter a Closing occurs, then the Extension Fee shall be deemed a prepayment of Milestone Payments, and the amount due at Closing for Milestone Payments shall be reduced by the amount of the Extension Fee. In the event there is no Closing and termination occurs after payment of the Extension Fee, the amount of the promissory note required by this Section 10.2(c) shall be increased to One Million Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($1,500,000). Payment of the Extension Fee, and the resulting extension of the effective date of termination, shall not prevent PDI from exercising its rights to terminate under Section 10.2(a) during such extended termination period.

(d)    PDI and [***] shall have the right to terminate this Agreement by mutual written consent at any time;

(e)    PDI shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to [***] in the event of a material breach by [***] of any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement. Upon the expiration of such notice period, this Agreement shall terminate without the need for further action by either Party; provided, however, that if the breach upon which such notice of termination is based shall have been cured by [***] within such sixty (60) day period, to the reasonable satisfaction of PDI, then such notice of termination shall be deemed rescinded, and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

(f)    [***] may terminate this Agreement upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to PDI in the event of a material breach by PDI of any of its representations, warranties or covenants contained in this Agreement. Upon the expiration of such notice period, this Agreement shall terminate without the need for further action by either party; provided, however, that if the breach upon which such notice of termination is based shall have been cured within such sixty (60) day period, to the reasonable satisfaction of [***] , then such notice of termination shall be deemed rescinded, and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.

(g)    On the date that is the second anniversary date of the Effective Date, this Agreement, if not previously terminated in accordance with its terms, shall automatically terminate if, prior to such date, PDI has not exercised the PDI Call Option and [***] has not exercised the [***] Put Option.

(h)    Except as expressly provided otherwise in Section 9.4(b), and subject to Section 9.4(d), no termination in accordance with this Section 10.2 (or payment of any promissory note required by Section 10.2(a) or 10.2(b)) shall limit any rights to indemnification pursuant to Article 9.

10.3.    SURVIVAL

The provisions of Article 9, Article 10 and Article 11 shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event of a Closing of the Acquisition, only the provisions of Article 5 and Article 11 shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement, each in accordance with its terms.

(a)    The Parties acknowledge and agree that certain rights granted to [***] pursuant to a certain Amended and Restated License Agreement between [***] [***] (the “[***]”), have potential value that is not readily ascertainable as of the Effective Date.

Accordingly, the Parties agree that any and all proceeds generated by such monetization efforts under the [***] License shall be used first to reimburse any actual, out-of-pocket expenses paid by PDI, [***] and/or [***] in furtherance of such monetization efforts (including any payments made to [***] License) (all such amounts to be reimbursed pro rata based on the total amount of expenses paid by each) until such time as all costs and expenses incurred by PDI, [***] [***] in connection with such monetization efforts have been paid in full, and any remaining profits shall be split [***] (in his capacity as a representative of the [***] Shareholders for further distribution to the [***] Shareholders).

(ii)    Buyer shall cause the Company to timely prepare and file with the appropriate Taxing Authorities all Tax Returns related to the Company not described in subsection (i) above and, subject to the rights to payment from the Sellers under subsection (iii)

14



below, shall cause the Company to pay all Taxes due with respect to such Tax Returns or owed (whether or not shown to be due on any Tax Returns). In the case of any Tax Return required to be filed pursuant to this subsection (ii) that reflects Taxes that are the subject of indemnification by the Sellers under Section 5.5(a), above, Buyer shall provide the Seller Representative at least fifteen (15) Business Days before filing with copies of such completed Tax Returns, along with supporting workpapers, for the review and approval of the Seller Representative, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed. The Seller Representative and the Buyer shall attempt in good faith to resolve any disagreements regarding such Tax Returns prior to the due date for filing. In the event that the Seller Representative and the Buyer are unable to resolve any dispute with respect to such Tax Returns prior to the due date for filing, such dispute shall be resolved pursuant to Section 5.5(g), which resolution shall be binding on the parties.

(iii)Not later than ten (10) Business Days prior to the due date for the payment of Taxes on any Tax Returns for which the Buyer has filing responsibility pursuant to subsection (ii), the Sellers shall pay to the Buyer the amount of Taxes owed by the Sellers, as reasonably determined by the Buyer in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.5(a) and 5.5(c). No payment pursuant to this subsection (iii) shall excuse the Sellers from their indemnification obligations pursuant to Section 5.5(a) if the amount of Taxes for which Sellers are liable under this Agreement as ultimately determined (on audit or otherwise) for the periods covered by such Tax Returns exceeds the amount of the Sellers’ payment under this Section 5.5(b)(iii). If the amount of Taxes for which Sellers are liable under this Agreement as ultimately determined (on audit or otherwise) for the periods covered by such Tax Returns is less than the amount of the Sellers’ payment under this Section 5.5(b)(iii), the Buyer shall reimburse to Sellers the amount of such overpayment not later than ten (10) Business Days following the date of such ultimate determination.

(c)    Allocations; Straddle Period.

(i)    In any case in which a Tax is assessed with respect to a taxable period that includes the Closing Date (but does not begin or end on that day) (a “Straddle Period”), the Taxes of the Company, if any, attributable to a Straddle Period shall be allocated (i) to Sellers for the period up to and including the close of business on the Closing Date, and (ii) to Buyer for the period subsequent to the Closing Date. Any allocation of income or deductions required to determine any Taxes attributable to a Straddle Period shall be made by means of a closing of the books and records of the Company as of the close of business on the Closing Date, provided that exemptions, allowances or deductions that are calculated on an annual basis (including, but not limited to, depreciation and amortization deductions) shall be allocated between the period ending on the Closing Date and the period after the Closing Date in proportion to the number of days in each such period.

(ii)    To the extent that Taxes are not apportioned pursuant to Section 5.5(c)(i) using the closing of the books method, such as in the case of real, personal and intangible property Taxes, the amount of these Taxes shall be allocated to the Pre-Closing and Post-Closing Tax Periods based on a fraction, the denominator of which is the number of days during such Tax Period and the numerator of which is the number of days in the Straddle Period.

15




(d)    Cooperation. The Seller Representative, the Company, and the Buyer shall reasonably cooperate, and shall cause their respective Affiliates, officers, employees, agents, auditors and representatives reasonably to cooperate, in preparing and filing all Tax Returns (including amended Tax Returns, if any) and any other matters relating to Taxes, including maintaining and making available to each other all records necessary in connection with Taxes and in resolving Tax Claims.

(e)    Tax Refunds. Any refund received by the Company of Taxes attributable to a Pre-Closing Tax Period (determined in accordance with Section 5.5(c)) shall be for the account of the Sellers; provided, however, that the Sellers shall not be entitled to any refund of Taxes to the extent such refund is attributable to the carryback of losses arising in or attributable to a taxable period (including the portion of any Straddle Period) beginning after the Closing Date to a Pre-Closing Tax Period. All other Company Tax refunds, including those described in clauses (i) and (ii) above, shall be for the account of the Buyer. The Buyer shall, and shall cause the Company to, forward any Tax refund received by the Company to which the Sellers may be entitled in accordance with this Section 5.5(e) to the Seller Representative for further distribution to the Sellers as promptly after such receipt as is commercially practicable.

(f)    Tax Audits.

(i)    If notice of any judicial, administrative or arbitral actions, suits, mediation, investigation, inquiry, proceedings or claims (including counterclaims) by or before any Taxing Authority with respect to Taxes of the Company (a “Tax Claim”) shall be received by any Party for which the other Party would be liable pursuant to Section 5.5(a), the notified Party shall notify such other Party in writing of such Tax Claim; provided, however, that the failure of the notified Party to give the other Party notice as provided herein shall not relieve such failing Party of its obligations under this Section 5.5 except to the extent that the other Party is actually and materially prejudiced thereby.

(ii)    The Seller Representative shall have the sole right to represent the interests of the Company in any Tax Claim relating exclusively to taxable periods ending on or before the Closing Date if and to the extent the Sellers are potentially liable for any Taxes resulting therefrom, and to employ counsel of their choice at their expense; provided, however, that the Seller Representative may not agree to a settlement or compromise thereof without the prior written consent of the Buyer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; and provided, further, that if such Tax Claim involves an issue that recurs in a Post-Closing Tax Period of Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates or otherwise could adversely affect the Buyer, the Company or any or their respective Affiliates for a Post-Closing Tax Period, then (A) the Seller Representative and the Buyer shall jointly control the defense and settlement or compromise of any such Tax Claim and each Party shall cooperate with the other Party at its own expense, and (B) there shall be no settlement or closing or other agreement with respect thereto without the written consent of each of the Buyer and the Seller Representative, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(iii)    In the case of any Tax Claim not described in (ii) above, the Buyer shall have the right, at the expense of the Sellers to the extent such Tax Claim is subject to indemnification by the Sellers pursuant to Section 5.5(a) hereof, to represent the interests of the

16



Company; provided that in the case of any Tax Claim that is the subject of indemnification under Section 5.5(a), Buyer shall not settle such claim without the written consent of the Seller Representative, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed.

(g)    Disputes. Any dispute as to any matter covered under this Section 5.5 shall be resolved by an independent accounting firm mutually acceptable to the Seller Representative and the Buyer. The fees and expenses of such accounting firm shall be borne equally by the Sellers, on the one hand, and Buyer on the other. If any dispute with respect to a Tax Return is not resolved prior to the due date of such Tax Return, such Tax Return shall be filed in the manner which the Party responsible for preparing such Tax Return deems correct.

(h)    Exclusivity. The indemnification provided for in this Section 5.5 shall be the sole remedy for any claim in respect of Taxes. In the event of a conflict between the provisions of this Section 5.5, on the one hand, and the provisions of Article 7, on the other, the provisions of this Section 5.5 shall control. For the avoidance of doubt, the limitations contemplated in Section 7.4 shall not apply to any recovery under Section 5.5(a) hereof.

7.5    NOTICE OF CLAIM

(a)    Any Party seeking indemnification hereunder (the “Indemnified Party”) shall give to the Party obligated to provide indemnification to such Indemnified Party (the “Indemnitor”) a notice (a “Claim Notice”) describing in reasonable detail the facts giving rise to any claim for indemnification hereunder and shall include in such Claim Notice a reference to the provision of this Agreement, Seller Document, Company Document or Buyer Document upon which such claim is based; provided, that a Claim Notice in respect of any Legal Proceeding by or against a third Person as to which indemnification will be sought shall be given, promptly reasonable after the action or suit is commenced; and provided, further, that failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnitor of its obligations hereunder except to the extent it shall have been actually prejudiced by such failure.

(b)    After the giving of any Claim Notice pursuant hereto, the amount of indemnification to which an Indemnified Party shall be entitled under this Article 7 shall be determined: (i) by the written agreement between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor; (ii) by a final judgment or decree of any Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction; or (iii) by any other means to which the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor shall agree. The judgment or decree of a court shall be deemed final when the time for appeal, if any, shall have expired and no appeal shall have been taken or when all appeals taken shall have been finally determined. Following such determination of the amount of indemnification, the Indemnified Party shall forward to the Indemnitor written notice of any sums due and owing by the Indemnitor and the Indemnitor shall pay all of such sums so due and owing within five (5) Business Days by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

If the Indemnitor acknowledges its obligation and elects to defend against, compromise, or, settle any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified by it hereunder, it shall within five (5) Business Days of the Indemnified Party’s claim notice with respect to such Third Party Claim in accordance with Section (a) (or sooner, if the nature of the Third Party Claim so requires) notify the Indemnified Party of its intent to do so; provided, that the Indemnitor must conduct the defense of the Third Party Claim actively and diligently thereafter in order to preserve its rights in this regard. If the Indemnitor elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder or fails to notify the Indemnified Party of its election as herein provided, the Indemnified Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third Party Claim. The Parties shall, in connection with any Third Party Claim the Indemnitor has elected to defend against, compromise or settle, furnish such records, information as may be reasonably requested by the in connection therewith. The Indemnified Party may participate, through counsel chosen by it and at its own expense, in the defense of any Third Party Claim as to which the Indemnitor has so elected to conduct and control the defense compromise or settlement thereof; provided, however, that such Indemnified

21



Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnitor, if (i) so requested by the Indemnitor to participate or (ii) in the reasonable opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnitor that would make such separate representation advisable; and provided, further, that the Indemnitor shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Third Party Claim. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 7.6 to the contrary, neither the Indemnitor nor the Indemnified Party shall, without the written consent of the other party, settle or compromise any Third Party Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment unless the claimant or claimants and such party provide to such other party an unqualified release from all liability in respect of the Third Party Claim.

(b)    Notwithstanding the provisions of Section (a), in the event of any claim for injunctive or other equitable relief against the Buyer that would if successful reasonably be expected to have a material and continuing effect on the Company, and for which the Buyer would be entitled to indemnification, the Buyer may assume the defense of such claim at the cost and expense of the Sellers.

7.7    PURCHASE PRICE ADJUSTMENT

Any indemnification payment made by the Buyer or any Seller under this Article 7 or Section 5.5 shall be treated by the Buyer and the Sellers as an adjustment to the Closing Consideration for federal, state and local Tax purposes.
7.8    CALCULATION OF LOSSES

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, solely for purposes of Section 7.2 in determining the amount of any Losses and Expenses suffered or incurred by any Buyer Indemnitee related to a breach of any representation or warranty of any Seller, but not whether there has occurred any such breach, the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement shall be considered without regard to any “material,” “Material Adverse Change” or similar qualifications set forth therein.
7.9    NO CONTRIBUTION

The Sellers shall have no right of contribution or other recourse against the Company or its directors, officers, employees, Affiliates, agents, attorneys, representatives, assigns or successors for any Third Party Claims asserted by the Buyer, it being acknowledged and agreed that the covenants and agreements of the Company are solely for the benefit of the Buyer.
7.10    OFFSET RIGHTS

Buyer shall have the right to set off any amounts owed by the Sellers to Buyer under this Agreement against any amounts owed by Buyer to the Sellers under the Collaboration Agreement. If PDI intends to exercise such right, it shall provide written notice to the Seller Representative, and if the Seller Representative disputes PDI’s notice, the amount claimed to be subject to set-off shall thereafter be paid by PDI into escrow until the claim is resolved by (a) written agreement of PDI and the Seller Representative, or (b) a final, non-appealable judgment

22



or decree of any Governmental Body. If such resolution upholds the set-off in whole or in part, the funds paid into escrow shall be released first to PDI in an amount equal to the amount of such determination, and the remaining escrow funds, if any, shall then promptly be released to the Seller Representative. If such resolution denies the set-off, the funds paid into escrow shall promptly be released to the Seller Representative. Notwithstanding the foregoing, all funds paid into escrow shall promptly be released to the Seller Representative if the dispute has not been resolved within 180 days after delivery by PDI of the applicable set-off notice to the Seller Representative, or such longer period as PDI and the Seller Representative may agree, if prior to the conclusion of such period neither PDI nor the Seller Representative has commenced a Legal Proceeding with respect to the claimed set-off.
