as follows:
The parties wish to
exchange certain confidential and proprietary information for the limited
purpose of allowing the parties to provide and/or purchase services, products
and consulting, in accordance with the following terms and conditions:
1. Definitions
For the purpose of this
Agreement, "Confidential Information" shall mean the information
belonging to one party (the "Disclosing Party") which is provided to
the other party (the "Receiving Party") which is marked as
"Confidential" and/or "Proprietary" or which would logically
be considered "Confidential" and/or "Proprietary" in view of
its relationship to the whole disclosure. Oral and visual disclosures of
Confidential Information shall be noted as such at the time of disclosure and
shall, within one month after disclosure, be summarized in a writing provided to
the Receiving Party, and shall be treated by the Receiving Party as Confidential
Information.
2. Protection and Purpose
All "Confidential
Information" of a Disclosing Party shall be maintained in confidence by the
Receiving Party, and shall not be disclosed to any third party and shall be
protected with the same degree of care as the Receiving Party normally uses in
the protection of its own confidential and proprietary information, but in no
case with any less degree than reasonable care. The Receiving Party shall not
use any "Confidential Information" of the Disclosing Party for the
benefit of the Receiving Party, for the benefit of any third party, or for any
purpose except the limited evaluation purposes set forth above.
3. Restrictions
The restrictions herein
provided shall not apply with respect to "Confidential Information"
which:
A. The Receiving Party can
demonstrate it knew at the time of receipt from the Disclosing Party; or
B. Is or becomes a part of
the public domain without breach of this Agreement by the Receiving Party; or
C. Is legitimately
obtained by the Receiving Party without a commitment of confidentiality from a
third party; or
D. Is disclosed by the
Disclosing Party to a third party without a commitment of confidentiality by the
third party; or
E. Is independently
developed by the Receiving Party without reliance on, use of, or strategic
guidance derived from, the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information; or
F. Is disclosed pursuant
to judicial action or government regulations, provided the Receiving Party
notifies the Disclosing Party prior to such disclosure and cooperates with the
Disclosing Party in the event the Disclosing Party elects to legally contest and
avoid such disclosure.
4. Rights and Licenses
This Agreement and the
furnishing of "Confidential Information" as provided herein shall not
be construed as establishing, either expressly or by implication, any grant of
rights or licenses to either party or any relationship between the parties.
5. Ownership
All tangible information
relating to Confidential Information of a Disclosing Party, including without
limitation web site content, customer lists, financial figures, databases, drawings, specifications and other information submitted hereunder by
the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party, shall remain the property of the
Disclosing Party. If either party elects not to pursue any further business
undertaking, each party shall promptly return to the other party all tangible
information, and all copies thereof, related to "Confidential
Information" belonging to the other party or certify destruction of the same.
6. Miscellaneous
6. (i)
Recipient agrees that it shall adhere to all U.S. Export
Administration laws and regulations and shall not export or re-export
any technical data or products received from the Company or the direct
product of such technical data to any proscribed country listed in the
U.S. Export Administration Regulations unless properly authorized by
both the Company and the U.S. Government.
6. (ii)
This Agreement constitutes the entire Agreement between the parties
with respect to the subject matter hereof. It shall not be modified
except by a written agreement dated subsequent to the date of this
Agreement and signed by both parties.
6. (iii)
None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have
been waived by any act or acquiescence on the part of either party, its
agents, or employees but only by an instrument in writing signed by an
authorized officer of the parties. No waiver of any provision of this
Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other provision(s) or of the
same provision on another occasion. Failure of either party to enforce
any provision of this Agreement shall not constitute waiver of such
provision or any other provisions of this Agreement.
6. (iv)
If any action at law or in equity is necessary to enforce or
interpret the rights arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the
prevailing party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorney's fees,
costs and necessary disbursements in addition to any other relief to
which it may be entitled.
6. (v)
This Agreement shall be construed and governed by the laws of the
State of New York in the United States of America, and both parties
further consent to jurisdiction by the state and federal courts sitting
in the State of New York.
6 (vi):
If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of
competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, the
remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect. Should any
of the obligations of this Agreement be found illegal or unenforceable
as being too broad with respect to the duration, scope or subject matter
thereof, such obligations shall be deemed and construed to be reduced to
the maximum duration, scope or subject matter allowable by law.
7. Termination
This Agreement is to be
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York in
the United States of America and shall terminate one (1) year from the effective
date of this Agreement.
