Third Party Proceedings The Company shall indemnify Indemnitee if Indemnitee is or was a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the Company) by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the Company, or any subsidiary of the Company, by reason of any action or inaction on the part of Indemnitee while an officer or director or by reason of the fact that Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the Company as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement (if such settlement is approved in advance by the Company, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld) actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that Indemnitee did not act in good faith and in a manner which Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Company, or, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, that Indemnitee had reasonable cause to believe that Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful.

The Company shall be entitled to review the Registration Statements and each of the amendments thereto, if any, prior to the time each becomes effective under the Securities Act.

Without limiting the foregoing, as promptly as practicable after the date of this Agreement, the parties hereto shall prepare and cause to be filed with the SEC the Information Statement; provided, however, that prior to the filing of the Information Statement, PDN shall consult with NAPW with respect to such filings and shall afford NAPW and its Representatives reasonable opportunity to comment thereon. The parties hereto shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Information Statement to be mailed to PDN’s stockholders as promptly as reasonably practicable after the date on which the Information Statement is cleared by the SEC. NAPW shall provide PDN with any information for inclusion in the Information Statement that may be required under applicable Law or that is reasonably requested by PDN. PDN shall notify NAPW of the receipt of comments from the SEC and of any request from the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Information Statement or for additional information, and will promptly supply to NAPW and its counsel copies of all correspondence between PDN or its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or members of its staff, on the other hand, with respect to the Information Statement. Each of NAPW, PDN and Merger Sub shall use reasonable best efforts to resolve all SEC comments with respect to the Information Statement and any other required filings as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof. Each of NAPW, PDN and Merger Sub agree to correct any information provided by it for use in the Information Statement which shall have become false or misleading in any material respect. NAPW will promptly notify PDN if at any time prior to the Closing any event should occur which is required by applicable Law to be set forth in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Information Statement. In such case, the parties will cooperate to promptly prepare and file such amendment or supplement with the SEC to the extent required by applicable Law and will mail such amendment or supplement to PDN’s stockholders to the extent required by applicable Law; provided, however, that prior to such filing, each party shall consult with each other party with respect to such amendment or supplement and shall afford each such party and its Representatives reasonable opportunity to comment thereon. Notwithstanding the forgoing, no party shall have any obligation to notify the other parties of any matters to the extent that its board of directors or any committee thereof determines in good faith, after consultation with its outside legal counsel, that to do so would be inconsistent with the directors’ exercise of their fiduciary obligations to its stockholders under applicable Law.
Necessary Further Actions If, at any time after the Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company and Merger Sub, then the directors and officers of the Company and Merger Sub as of immediately prior to the Effective Time will take all such lawful and necessary action.
Further Cooperation The parties agree that they will, at any time and from time to time after the Closing, upon request by the other and without further consideration, do, perform, execute, acknowledge and deliver all such further acts, deeds, assignments, assumptions, transfers, conveyances, powers of attorney, certificates and assurances as may be reasonably required in order to complete the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or to carry out and perform any undertaking made by the parties hereunder.
