a. Definition of Confidential Information. “Confidential Information” means confidential or proprietary information provided by one Party (the “Disclosing Party”) to the other Party (the “Recipient”), either verbally or in writing, during the Term: (i) that is clearly marked or identified as confidential in writing or orally within thirty (30) days after disclosure, or (ii) whose confidential nature is reasonably apparent based on the circumstances under which it was disclosed.

b. Nondisclosure and Protection. Each Party as Recipient agrees: (i) not to make the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information available to any third party without the Disclosing Party’s prior written consent, provided that the Recipient may disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information to its officers, directors, employees, contractors and advisors who have a “need to know” for purposes of this Agreement and are themselves legally bound by nondisclosure obligations at least as restrictive as those set forth in this Agreement; and (ii) to hold the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information in confidence using at least the degree of care that it uses with respect to its own information of like nature and value, but in any event no less than reasonable care.

c. Exclusions. A Party’s Confidential Information shall not include information that: (i) is or becomes a part of the public domain through no act or omission of the other Party; (ii) was in the other Party’s lawful possession prior to the disclosure and had not been obtained by the other Party either directly or indirectly from the Disclosing Party; (iii) is lawfully disclosed to the other Party by a third party without restriction on disclosure; (iv) is aggregated with other information and anonymized to the extent that it is not possible to identify its source or origin; or (v) is independently developed by the other Party without use of or reference to the other Party’s Confidential Information.​

d. Compelled Disclosure. This Section 5 will prohibit disclosure of Confidential Information to the extent that such disclosure is required by law or valid order of a court or other governmental authority; provided, however, that a Party who has been subpoenaed or otherwise compelled by a valid law or court order to disclose the other Party’s Confidential Information shall first, to the extent lawful, have given sufficient and prompt written notice to the other Party of the receipt of any subpoena or other request for such disclosure.
