WHEREAS, the parties will disclose to each other certain of their proprietary information to be used as part of discussions leading to a potential agreement between the parties (hereinafter the “Project”).

In consideration of the mutual promises and covenants contained in this Agreement and the disclosure of Confidential Information, the Parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Definition of Confidential Information and Exclusions
   When used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
   1. The "Discloser" is the Party disclosing Confidential Information and the "Recipient" is the Party receiving Confidential Information.
   2. "Confidential Information” shall mean all information supplied by the Discloser to the Recipient and intended to be kept confidential including, without limitation, all nonpublic information relating to business plans or practices, concepts, experimental work or prototypes, costs, sources of supply, pricing methods, client lists, prospective client lists, financial or technical matters, trade secrets, designs, know-how, inventions, operations, the marketing or promotion of products or services, business and information received from others that Discloser is obligated to treat as confidential and any other information received or acquired by Recipient from the Discloser in the course of exploring and enacting the Project.
   3. Confidential Information shall not include any information, however designated, that: (i) is or subsequently becomes publicly available through no wrongful act of the Recipient; (ii) is already known to the Recipient at the time of disclosure; (iii) is rightfully received by the Recipient from a third party without restriction on disclosure and without breach of this Agreement; (iv) is independently developed by Recipient and without the use of any of the Confidential Information.
   4. Other terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them elsewhere herein.
      
      
2. Limitation to Use
   Recipient agrees to accept Discloser's Confidential Information solely for use in connection with Recipient's business discussions with Discloser concerning the Project. Recipient agrees to refrain from using the Confidential Information to the competitive disadvantage of Discloser, reverse engineering, decompiling or disassembling Confidential Information and shall not disclose, publish, distribute or disseminate Confidential Information to anyone other than those of its employees with a need to know such information in pursuance of Recipient's analysis of the Project. For this Agreement Recipient agrees not to use Confidential Information otherwise for its own or any third party's benefit without the prior written approval of an authorized representative of Discloser.
   
   Recipient agrees to use reasonable care, but in no event no less than the same degree of care that it uses to protect its own confidential and proprietary information of similar importance, to prevent the unauthorized use, disclosure, publication and dissemination of Discloser’s Confidential Information. Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, Recipient agrees to take all reasonable steps necessary to ensure that Discloser’s Confidential Information is neither stolen nor misappropriated.
   
   
3. Obligation to Maintain Confidentiality
   Recipient agrees that without the prior written consent of Discloser, it will not, directly or indirectly, divulge, disclose, reveal or communicate, either before, during or after the Project (and whether or not the Project is consummated) any Confidential Information to any person or entity. Each of the Parties hereto acknowledges that this covenant of nondisclosure is an integral term of this Agreement and is given in consideration of each other’s agreement to consider the Project.
   
   
4. Mandatory Disclosure Exemption
   Recipient may disclose Confidential Information in strict accordance with a judicial or other governmental order, provided that Recipient (i) gives the Discloser representative reasonable notice prior to such disclosure to allow Discloser a reasonable opportunity to seek a protective order or equivalent, and (ii) obtains written assurance from the applicable judicial or governmental entity that it will afford the Confidential Information the highest level of protection afforded under applicable law or regulation.
   
   
5. Return of Confidential Information
   Upon the first written request of Discloser, Recipient shall return or destroy (as designated by the Discloser) all originals, copies, reproductions and summaries of all Confidential Information which were, at any time, in the possession of and all materials (in any medium) which contain or embody Confidential Information. Furthermore, Recipient agrees to permanently erase or delete any Confidential Information stored electronically, magnetically or otherwise on machines or devices, upon written demand by Discloser (except that Recipient may retain a copy of any written materials as an archival record of the disclosure). 
   
   
6. Remedies
   Discloser and Recipient each agree that its obligations set forth in this Agreement are necessary and reasonable in order to protect the Discloser and its business. Both Parties expressly agree that due to the unique nature of the Discloser's Confidential Information, monetary damages would be inadequate to compensate the Discloser for any breach by the Recipient of its covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement. Accordingly, Discloser and Recipient each agree and acknowledge that any such violation or threatened violation shall cause irreparable injury to the Discloser and that, in addition to any other remedies that may be available, in law, in equity or otherwise, the Discloser shall be entitled (a) to obtain injunctive relief against the threatened breach of this Agreement or the continuation of any such breach by the Recipient, without the necessity of proving actual damages, and (b) to be indemnified by the Recipient from any loss, harm or damages, including, without limitation, attorney's fees, arising out of or in connection with any breach or enforcement of the Recipient's obligations under this Agreement or the unauthorized use or disclosure of the Discloser's Confidential Information.
   
   
7. No Rights Granted
   All Confidential Information is and shall remain the property of the appropriate Discloser. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as granting any expressed or implied rights under any patent, copyright or other intellectual property rights of either Party, nor shall this Agreement grant either Party any express or implied rights in or to the other Party's Confidential Information other than the limited right to review such Confidential Information solely for the purpose of determining whether to enter into the Project.
   
   
8. No Warranty
   Unless otherwise agreed by Discloser and Recipient, all such Confidential Information is provided "AS IS," without warranty of any kind, and Recipient agrees that neither Discloser nor its agents, representatives or affiliated parties shall be liable for any damages whatsoever arising from or relating to Recipient's use or inability to use such Confidential Information.
   
   
9. Severance
   If any provision of this Agreement is inconsistent or contrary to any applicable law, rule or regulation, then said provisions shall be deemed to be modified to the extent required to comply with said law, rule or regulation and as so modified, said provision and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
   
   
10. Independent Contractors

12. Amendment and Waiver
    Any term of this Agreement may be amended in writing and signed by both Parties. Any amendment or waiver effected in accordance with this Section shall be binding upon the Parties and their respective successors and assigns. Failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement by a Party shall not constitute a waiver of any term hereof by such Party.
