Confidential information may be written or oral, tangible or intangible, and expressed in electronic media or otherwise disclosed. All materials and information disclosed by Discloser to Recipient will be deemed to be Confidential Information unless the Recipient can prove that the materials or information (1) have become publicly known through no fault of Recipient, (2) was received by Recipient properly and lawfully from a third party without restriction on disclosure and without knowledge or reasonable suspicion that the third party's disclosure is in breach of any obligations to Discloser, (3) has been independently developed by Recipient without use or reference to Confidential Information delivered hereunder, or (4) has been approved for public release by written authorization of Discloser.

Recipient will (1) maintain and preserve the confidentiality of all Confidential Information disclosed to it by Discloser and take such care to protect Confidential Information as Recipient ordinarily takes to protect and preserve the confidentiality of its own Confidential Information, but no less than reasonable care; (2) disclose such Confidential Information only to its own employees, clients, or independent contractors on a "need -to -know" basis only, and in no case to competitors of the Discloser, and only to those employees, clients, independent contractors, or advisors who are under an obligation of confidentiality; (3) not disassemble, "reverse engineer," "reverse compile," or analyze the inputs and outputs of any software or hardware provided under this Agreement for any purpose, including without limitation, attempting to ascertain or deduce the functionality or workings of the software or hardware; and (4) not disclose such Confidential Information to any third party without the express written consent of Discloser.

Equitable Relief and Remedies. Any and all Confidential Information includes valuable trade secrets of Discloser. Recipient acknowledges that, in the event of any breach of this Agreement, Discloser will not have an adequate remedy in money or damages. Discloser will therefore be entitled in such event to seek an injunction against such breach from any court of competent jurisdiction immediately upon request. Discloser's right to obtain such relief will not limit its right to obtain other remedies, at law, in equity, by statute, or otherwise. 7. Disclaimer. ALL CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION IS PROVIDED AS IS.

Upon Discloser's request, Recipient will promptly certify that such action has been taken. 9. Required Legal Disclosure. Notwithstanding the above, Recipient may disclose Confidential Information or the terms of this Agreement to the extent required by any applicable law, regulation, or court; provided, however, that Recipient will notify Discloser in writing promptly after becoming aware of its obligations to make such a disclosure, and sufficiently in advance to permit Discloser to seek to challenge or limit such required disclosure, and provided that the Confidential Information disclosed shall be limited to that portion of the Confidential Information which, based on the reasonable advice of counsel, is legally required to be disclosed. Recipient will otherwise exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the Confidential Information. 10. Entire Agreement.
