Continuity and Breach Sample Clauses

Continuity and Breach. The problem with this response to Xxxxxxxx’x argument is that it does not take into account that violating a duty does not tend to let one off the moral hook. On the contrary, the violation of a duty tends to create duties to undo or mitigate the violation. These remedial duties also tend to be more stringent than the original duties. To see this, consider the following case: Burning House: Xxxxxx’s house catches fire and is about to burn down, causing him to lose all his possessions. At time t1, Xxxxx can easily prevent this by turn- ing on his sprinklers. She refuses, and Xxxxxx’s house xxxxx down. Later, at t2, Xxxxx can help Xxxxxx offset the harm he suffered.20 Assuming that Xxxxx is required to help at t1, the fact that she chose not to seems very significant for what is required of her at t2. Intuitively, her reasons to help offset the harm differ from those that someone who happens to walk by has. For instance, if only one of them is needed to help offset the harm, Xxxxx should do it. Moreover, Xxxxx’s duty to help now seems more stringent than her initial duty to help and, likewise, more stringent than the duty that a stranger has to 20 Xxxxxx (2020b, p. 190) discusses a similar case. help now. That is, we can require more substantial sacrifices of her for the sake of Xxxxxx’s well-being now than we could have initially. What is sometimes called the Continuity Thesis helps account for some of this intuition. According to the thesis, the moral reasons which ground primary duties (say, to aid someone or not to harm them) do not simply vanish if we fail to comply with them. Instead, they – or at least very similar reasons – continue to exist post-violation and ground secondary, or “next- best”, duties to compensate or otherwise make up for the initial wrongdoing.21 This can help explain why Xxxxx’s duty to help offset the harm seems different from the duty to help which other strangers have. Her duty is remedial and the result of her violating a primary duty owed to Xxxxxx. That is why it is more appropriate that she rather than a stranger help him now. As Xxxxxx (2020b) explains, however, the Continuity Thesis as described cannot ex- plain the intuition that secondary duties are more stringent that primary ones. The thesis only holds that the same (or very similar) reasons that ground the primary duty continue to exist and ground a secondary duty post-breach. If those reasons initially only grounded a duty of a par- ticular stringency, how could the...

  • Confidentiality and Ownership The Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Confidential Information (as defined in Paragraph 5(A) below) is the property of the Corporation, its subsidiaries and affiliates. Accordingly, the Executive agrees as follows:

  • Confidentiality and Proprietary Information 9.1 For the purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information (“Confidential Information”) means confidential or proprietary technical or business information given by one Party (the “Discloser”) to the other (the “Recipient”). All information which is disclosed by one Party to the other in connection with this Agreement, during negotiations and the term of this Agreement will not be deemed Confidential Information to the Discloser and subject to this Section 9, unless the confidentiality of the information is confirmed in writing by the Discloser prior to disclosure. The Recipient agrees (i) to use Confidential Information only for the purpose of performing under this Agreement, (ii) to hold it in confidence and disclose it to no one other than its employees having a need to know for the purpose of performing under this Agreement, and (iii) to safeguard it from unauthorized use or disclosure using at least the same degree of care with which the Recipient safeguards its own Confidential Information. If the Recipient wishes to disclose the Discloser's Confidential Information to a third-party agent or consultant, such disclosure must be agreed to in writing by the Discloser, and the agent or consultant must have executed a written agreement of nondisclosures and nonuse comparable in scope to the terms of this section. 9.2 The Recipient may make copies of Confidential Information only as reasonably necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement. All such copies will be subject to the same restrictions and protections as the original and will bear the same copyright and proprietary rights notices as are contained on the original. 9.3 The Recipient agrees to return all Confidential Information in tangible form received from the Discloser, including any copies made by the Recipient, within thirty (30) days after a written request is delivered to the Recipient, or to destroy all such Confidential Information if directed to do so by Discloser except for Confidential Information that the Recipient reasonably requires to perform its obligations under this Agreement; the Recipient shall certify destruction by written letter to the Discloser. If either Party loses or makes an unauthorized disclosure of the Party’s Confidential Information, it will notify such other Party immediately and use its best efforts to retrieve the lost or wrongfully disclosed information. 9.4 The Recipient shall have no obligation to safeguard Confidential Information: (i) which was in the possession of the Recipient free of restriction prior to its receipt from the Discloser; (ii) after it becomes publicly known or available through no breach of this Agreement by the Recipient; (iii) after it is rightfully acquired by the Recipient free of restrictions on its discloser; (iv) after it is independently developed by personnel of the Recipient to whom the Discloser's Confidential Information had not been previously disclosed. In addition, either Party will have the right to disclose Confidential Information to any mediator, arbitrator, state or federal regulatory body, or a court in the conduct of any mediation, arbitration or approval of this Agreement, as long as, in the absence of an applicable protective order, the Discloser has been previously notified by the Recipient in time sufficient for the Recipient to undertake all lawful measures to avoid disclosing such confidential information and for Discloser to have reasonable time to seek or negotiate a protective order before or with any applicable mediator, arbitrator, state or regulatory body or a court. 9.5 The Parties recognize that an individual End User may simultaneously seek to become or be a customer of both Parties. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to limit the ability of either Party to use customer specific information lawfully obtained from End Users or sources other than the Discloser. 9.6 Each Party’s obligations to safeguard Confidential Information disclosed prior to expiration or termination of this Agreement will survive such expiration or termination. 9.7 No license is hereby granted under any patent, trademark, or copyright, nor is any such license implied solely by virtue or the disclosure of any Confidential Information. 9.8 Each Party agrees that the Discloser may be irreparably injured by a disclosure in breach of this Agreement by the Recipient or its representatives and the Discloser will be entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunctive relief and specific performance, in the event of any breach or threatened breach of the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement. Such remedies will not be deemed to be the exclusive remedies for a breach of this Agreement, but will be in addition to all other remedies available at law or in equity.
