The term “Confidential Information” does not include any information that (i) at the time of disclosure or thereafter is generally available to and known by the public (other than as a result of its disclosure by You or Your Representatives in violation of this Agreement), (ii) was available to You prior to disclosure by or on behalf of the Company from a Person who, to Your knowledge after reasonable inquiry, is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with, or other obligation of confidentiality to, the Company, (iii) becomes available to You from a Person (other than the Company or its Representatives) who, to Your knowledge after reasonable inquiry, is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with, or other obligation of confidentiality to, the Company or its Representatives, or (iv) is independently developed by You without the use of or reference to the Confidential Information. The term “Representatives” means, as to any party, such party’s affiliates and its and their respective officers, employees, directors, general (but not limited) partners, members, managers and legal counsel.

 

3.Given the nature of the Confidential Information and the subject matter of this Agreement, the Company would be irreparably damaged by any unauthorized disclosure or use of any Confidential Information, and each of You and the Company would be irreparably damaged by any unauthorized disclosure of our discussions or by any breach of this Agreement by You.

Such remedies shall not be deemed to be exclusive remedies, but shall be in addition to all other remedies available at law or equity to such party. In the event of litigation relating to this Agreement, if a court of competent jurisdiction determines that You have breached this Agreement, then You shall be liable and pay to the Company its reasonable documented out of pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees) incurred in connection with such litigation, including any appeal therefrom.

 

4.Subject to Section 5(b) hereof, in the event You or the Company become legally required (by applicable law, deposition, interrogatory, request for documents, subpoena, civil investigation, demand, order or other legal process, including by a self-regulatory authority, or otherwise pursuant to applicable law, rule or regulation), based on the advice of Your legal counsel, to disclose any of the contents of the Confidential Information or the information restricted by Paragraph 5 below, You or the Company, as applicable, may do so without liability, provided that You or the Company, as applicable, to the extent not prohibited by applicable law (a) promptly notify the other party prior to any such disclosure to the extent practicable, and (b) cooperate reasonably with the other party, at such other party’s sole expense, in any attempts it may make to obtain a protective order or other appropriate assurance that confidential treatment will be afforded the Confidential Information or the matters addressed in Paragraph 5 below, as applicable. It is understood that there shall be no legal requirement requiring You to disclose any Confidential Information solely by virtue of the fact that, absent such disclosure, You would be prohibited from purchasing, selling or engaging in derivative or other transactions with respect to any securities of the Company.
