Restrictions on Use and Disclosure Except as required by Executive's duties hereunder, Executive shall never, directly or indirectly, use, publish, disseminate or otherwise disclose any Confidential Information or Inventions which are the subject of Section 7.1 without the prior written consent of the Board, except as required by law. Nothing in this Section shall prevent disclosure of information which has been completely disclosed in a published patent or other integrated publication of general circulation, nor shall this Section govern the right to use Inventions for which a patent may have been issued.
Use and Disclosure All Confidential Information of a party will be held in confidence by the other party with at least the same degree of care as such party protects its own confidential or proprietary information of like kind and import, but not less than a reasonable degree of care. Neither party will disclose in any manner Confidential Information of the other party in any form to any person or entity without the other party’s prior consent. However, each party may disclose relevant aspects of the other party’s Confidential Information to its officers, affiliates, agents, subcontractors and employees to the extent reasonably necessary to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement and such disclosure is not prohibited by applicable law. Without limiting the foregoing, each party will implement physical and other security measures and controls designed to protect (a) the security and confidentiality of Confidential Information; (b) against any threats or hazards to the security and integrity of Confidential Information; and (c) against any unauthorized access to or use of Confidential Information. To the extent that a party delegates any duties and responsibilities under this Agreement to an agent or other subcontractor, the party ensures that such agent and subcontractor are contractually bound to confidentiality terms consistent with the terms of this Section 11.
Reporting and Disclosure The Company, from time to time, shall provide government agencies with such reports concerning this Agreement as may be required by law, and the Company shall provide the Executive with such disclosure concerning this Agreement as may be required by law or as the Company may deem appropriate.
Public Statements and Disclosure The initial press release concerning this Agreement and the Merger will be a joint press release reasonably acceptable to the Company and Parent and will be issued promptly following the execution and delivery of this Agreement. Thereafter, unless the Company Special Committee has made a Company Recommendation Change, the Company and its Representatives, on the one hand, and Parent and Merger Sub and their respective Representatives, on the other hand, will consult with the other Parties before (a) participating in any media interviews; (b) engaging in any meetings or calls with analysts, institutional investors or other similar Persons; or (c) providing any statements that are public or are reasonably likely to become public, in each case to the extent relating to this Agreement or the Merger and neither party shall issue any press release or make any public announcement or statement without the consent of the other party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, that to the extent such release or announcement is required by applicable Law or any listing agreement with or rule of any national securities exchange or association upon which the securities of the Company are listed, the party required to make the release, announcement or statement shall use reasonable best efforts to consult with the other Party about, and allow the other Party reasonable time (taking into account the circumstances) to comment on, such release, announcement or statement in advance of such issuance. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither Parent nor the Company will be obligated to engage in such consultation with respect to communications that are (i) principally directed to its employees, drivers, suppliers, customers, partners or vendors so long as such communications are consistent with prior communications previously agreed to by Parent and the Company and do not add additional material information not included in such previous communication (in which case such communications may be made consistent with such plan); (ii) related to a Superior Proposal or Company Recommendation Change or, in each case, any action taken pursuant thereto; (iii) with respect to any dispute or Legal Proceeding solely among the Parties or their respective Affiliates related to this Agreement or the Transaction Documents; or (iv) substantively consistent with previous public disclosures made by the Parties in compliance with this Section 6.13 and which do not add additional material information not included in such previous disclosure. Parent will not be obligated to engage in such consultation with respect to communications that are principally directed to its existing or prospective equity holders and investors of Parent or its Affiliates, so long as such communications are consistent with prior communications previously agreed to by Parent and the Company and do not add additional material information not included in such previous communication.
Permitted Use and Disclosures Each Party hereto may use or disclose Confidential Information disclosed to it by the other Party to the extent such information is included in the Pharmacopeia Technology, Schering Technology or Collaboration Technology, as the case may be, and to the extent (i) such use or disclosure is reasonably necessary and permitted in the exercise of the rights granted hereunder in filing or prosecuting patent applications, prosecuting or defending litigation, (ii) such disclosure is reasonably required to be made to any institutional review board of any entity conducting clinical trials with Agreement Compound(s) and/or Agreement Product(s), or to any governmental or other regulatory agency, in order to gain approval to conduct clinical trials or to market Agreement Compound(s) and/or Agreement Products, (iii) such disclosure is required by law, regulation, rule, act or order of any governmental authority, court, or agency, or is made in connection with submitting required information to tax or other governmental authorities, or (iv) such disclosure or use is reasonably required in conducting clinical trials, or making a permitted sublicense or otherwise exercising license rights expressly granted to it by the other Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; in each case, provided that if a Party is required to make any such disclosure of another Party’s Confidential Information, other than pursuant to a confidentiality agreement, it will give reasonable advance notice to the other Party of such disclosure and, save to the extent inappropriate in the case of patent applications, will use its reasonable diligent efforts to secure confidential treatment of such Confidential Information in consultation with the other Party prior to its disclosure (whether through protective orders or otherwise) and disclose only the minimum necessary to comply with such requirements.
