Confidentiality; Public Disclosure (a) Each of the Agents and the Lenders agrees to keep confidential all non-public information provided to it by any Loan Party pursuant to this Agreement that is designated by such Loan Party as confidential; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Agent or any Lender from disclosing any such information (i) to any Agent, any other Lender or any affiliate of any thereof, (ii) to any Participant or Assignee (each, a “Transferee”) or prospective Transferee that agrees to comply with the provisions of this Section or substantially equivalent provisions, (iii) any of its employees, directors, agents, attorneys, accountants and other professional advisors, (iv) any financial institution that is a direct or indirect contractual counterparty in swap agreements or such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor (so long as such contractual counterparty or professional advisor to such contractual counterparty agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section), (v) upon the request or demand of any Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over it, (vi) in response to any order of any court or other Governmental Authority or as may otherwise be required pursuant to any Requirement of Law, (vii) in connection with any litigation or similar proceeding, (viii) that has been publicly disclosed other than in breach of this Section, (ix) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization or any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or (x) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document.
(b) None of the Loan Parties shall issue any press release or other public disclosure (other than any filing required to be made with the SEC) using the name of any of the Lenders or any affiliate of a Lender in connection with this transaction without both (i) providing any such Lender with at least two (2) Business Days’ prior notice and (ii) obtaining the Lender’s or such Lender’s affiliate’s prior written consent. Nothing in the immediately preceding sentence shall prevent any disclosure of the name of any Lender or of any affiliate of such Lender to the extent (and only to the extent) required by any Requirement of Law, provided that, the person or entity making such disclosure shall nonetheless consult with the affected Lender or the relevant affiliate of such Lender prior to issuing such press release or other public disclosure.

Confidentiality/Public Announcement From the date of this Agreement and until the End Date, the Company agrees that except in connection with a Form 8-K, Form 10-Q, Form 10-K and the registration statement or statements regarding the Subscribers’ Securities or in correspondence with the Commission regarding same, it will not disclose publicly or privately the identity of the Subscribers unless expressly agreed to in writing by Subscribers or only to the extent required by law and then only upon not less than five days prior notice to Subscribers. In any event and subject to the foregoing, the Company undertakes to file a Form 8-K (the “Form 8-K”) describing the Offering not later than the fourth (4th) business day after the Closing Date. In the Form 8-K, the Company will specifically disclose the amount of Common Stock outstanding immediately after the Closing. Upon delivery by the Company to the Subscribers after the Closing Date of any notice or information, in writing, electronically or otherwise, and while a Note, Conversion Shares or Warrants are held by Subscribers, unless the Company has in good faith determined that the matters relating to such notice do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or Subsidiaries, the Company shall within four (4) days after any such delivery publicly disclose such material, nonpublic information on a Report on Form 8-K. In the event that the Company believes that a notice or communication to Subscribers contains material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or Subsidiaries, except as required to be delivered in connection with this Agreement, the Company shall so indicate to Subscribers prior to delivery of such notice or information. Subscribers will be granted five days to notify the Company that Subscriber elects not to receive such information. In the case that Subscriber elects not to receive such information, the Company will not deliver such information to Subscribers. In the absence of any such Company indication, Subscribers shall be allowed to presume that all matters relating to such notice and information do not constitute material, nonpublic information relating to the Company or Subsidiaries.
Disclosure to FERC or its Staff Notwithstanding anything in this Section 17 to the contrary, and pursuant to 18 C.F.R. § 1b.20, if FERC or its staff, during the course of an investigation or otherwise, requests information from one of the Interconnection Parties that is otherwise required to be maintained in confidence pursuant to this Interconnection Service Agreement, the Interconnection Party, shall provide the requested information to FERC or its staff, within the time provided for in the request for information. In providing the information to FERC or its staff, the Interconnection Party must, consistent with 18 C.F.R. § 388.122, request that the information be treated as confidential and non-public by FERC and its staff and that the information be withheld from public disclosure. Interconnection Parties are prohibited from notifying the other Interconnection Parties prior to the release of the Confidential Information to the Commission or its staff. An Interconnection Party shall notify the other Interconnection Parties to the Interconnection Service Agreement when it is notified by FERC or its staff that a request to release Confidential Information has been received by FERC, at which time any of the Interconnection Parties may respond before such information would be made public, pursuant to 18 C.F.R. § 388.112.
Prohibition on Press Releases and Public Announcements The Company shall not issue press releases or engage in any other publicity, without the Representative’s prior written consent, for a period ending at 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, on the first (1st) Business Day following the forty-fifth (45th) day after the Closing Date, other than normal and customary releases issued in the ordinary course of the Company’s business.
Press Releases and Public Announcements No Party shall issue any press release or make any public announcement relating to the subject matter of this Agreement without the prior written approval of the other Party; provided, however, that any Party may make any public disclosure it believes in good faith is required by applicable law or any listing or trading agreement concerning its publicly-traded securities (in which case the disclosing Party will use its reasonable best efforts to advise the other Party prior to making the disclosure).
Confidentiality; Public Announcements (i). The Parties undertake with each other that they shall treat as strictly confidential all information received or obtained by them or their employees, agents or advisers in connection with the entry into or the performance of this Agreement including information relating to the provisions of this Agreement, the negotiations leading up to this Agreement, the subject matter of this Agreement, and the business or affairs of any other Party and subject to the provisions of this section that they will not at any time hereafter make use of or disclose or divulge to any Person any such information and shall use all reasonable efforts to prevent the publication or disclosure of any such information.
(ii). The restrictions contained in this section shall not: (A) apply to any disclosure which, pursuant to relevant Laws and rules, any Governmental Authority requires any Party to make (including the disclosure required to be made to any Governmental Authority in any Party’s application for consent or approval for transactions contemplated hereunder), provided that written consent as to the form and content (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the other Party has been obtained prior to any disclosure of information in public announcement involving such other Party; (B) restrict or prohibit any Party in or from making any disclosure to any professional adviser for the purposes of obtaining necessary professional advice; provided such Party shall procure that such professional adviser observes the confidentiality obligation set forth in this section; (C) apply to any disclosure from the Purchaser to its parent and any of its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers and employees; and (D) apply to information which was in the public domain or otherwise known to the relevant Party before it was furnished to it by another Party hereto or, after it was furnished to that Party, entered the public domain otherwise than as a result of a breach by that Party of this this section or a breach of a confidentiality obligation by the disclosing Party, where the breach was known to that Party.
(iii). No Party shall make, nor shall cause to be made, any press release or public announcement in respect of this Agreement, the identity of the parties to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby or otherwise communicate with any news media without the prior written consent of the other Party, unless otherwise required by Law or applicable stock exchange regulation (and then only after consultation with the other Party), and the Parties shall cooperate as to the timing and contents of any such press release, public announcement or communication. In the event that any Party or any of its agents, representatives, Affiliates, employees, officers or directors becomes legally compelled to disclose any such confidential information, such Party shall provide the other Party with prompt written notice of such requirement so that such other Party may seek a protective order or other remedy, or provide a written consent as to the form and content of the disclosure (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) of the other Party prior to any such disclosure of confidential information. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or such other Party waive compliance with this this section, the Party legally compelled to disclose such confidential information shall furnish only that portion of such confidential information which is legally required to be provided and exercise all reasonable efforts to obtain assurances that confidential treatment will be accorded such information.
No Public Announcement Neither party hereto shall, without the prior written approval of the other party, make any press release or other public announcement concerning the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except as and to the extent that any such party shall be so obligated by Law or the rules of any regulatory body or stock exchange, in which case the other party shall be advised and the parties shall use their respective commercially reasonable efforts to cause a mutually agreeable release or announcement to be issued; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not preclude communications or disclosures necessary to implement the provisions of this Agreement or to comply with the accounting and SEC disclosure obligations or the rules of any stock exchange.
Material Non-Public Information Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Company and the Agent agree that the Company shall not deliver any Issuance Notice to the Agent, and the Agent shall not be obligated to place any Shares, during any period in which the Company is in possession of material non-public information.
