8.1 Confidentiality. During the Term of this Agreement, each party may disclose certain Confidential Information to the other party.

Subject to the foregoing nondisclosure and non-use obligations, the Receiving Party agrees to use at least the same care and precaution (no less than reasonable care) in protecting such Confidential Information as the Receiving Party uses to protect the Receiving Party’s own Confidential Information and trade secrets. The Receiving Party shall report to the Disclosing Party any use or disclosure of Confidential Information not provided for by this Agreement of which the Receiving Party becomes aware. The Receiving Party acknowledges that due to the unique nature of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information, the Disclosing Party will not have an adequate remedy in money or damages in the event of any unauthorized use or disclosure of its Confidential Information. In addition to any other remedies that may be available in law, in equity or otherwise, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek injunctive relief to prevent such unauthorized use or disclosure. The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information if required by law, provided it gives the Disclosing Party prior notice (if legally permitted) and reasonable assistance, at the Disclosing Party’s expense, to contest the disclosure. If disclosure is required as part of a civil proceeding to which the Disclosing Party is a party, and the Disclosing Party does not contest the disclosure, the Disclosing Party will reimburse the Receiving Party for reasonable costs incurred in providing secure access to the Confidential Information.


8.3 Return or Destruction of Materials. All documents and other tangible objects containing or representing Confidential Information disclosed by the Disclosing Party along with any summaries, copies, descriptions, excerpts, or extracts thereof in the possession of the Receiving Party, shall remain the property of the Disclosing Party.

Any such retained Confidential Information shall remain subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement for so long as it is retained. Notwithstanding the return or destruction of the Confidential Information, the Receiving Party will continue to be bound by its confidentiality and other obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. At the Disclosing Party’s option, the Receiving Party will provide written certification of its compliance with this Section.
