Third Party Information I understand, in addition, that the Company has received and in the future will receive from third parties confidential or proprietary information (“Third Party Information”) subject to a duty on the Company’s part to maintain the confidentiality of such information and to use it only for certain limited purposes. During the term of my employment and thereafter, I will hold Third Party Information in the strictest confidence and will not disclose to anyone (other than Company personnel who need to know such information in connection with their work for the Company) or use, except in connection with my work for the Company, Third Party Information unless expressly authorized by an officer of the Company in writing.
Non-Disclosure of Third Party Information Executive represents and warrants and covenants that Executive shall not disclose to the Company, or use, or induce the Company to use, any proprietary information or trade secrets of others at any time, including but not limited to any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former employer, if any; and Executive acknowledges and agrees that any violation of this provision shall be grounds for Executive’s immediate termination and could subject Executive to substantial civil liabilities and criminal penalties. Executive further specifically and expressly acknowledges that no officer or other employee or representative of the Company has requested or instructed Executive to disclose or use any such third party proprietary information or trade secrets.
Privileged Information (a) The parties acknowledge that members of the Parent Group, on the one hand, and members of the SpinCo Group, on the other hand, may possess documents or other information regarding the other Group that is or may be subject to the attorney-client privilege, the work product doctrine or common interest privilege (collectively, “Privileges”; and such documents and other information collectively, the “Privileged Information”). Each party agrees to use reasonable efforts to protect and maintain, and to cause their respective Affiliates to protect and maintain, any applicable claim to Privilege in order to prevent any of the other party’s Privileged Information from being disclosed or used in a manner inconsistent with such Privilege without the other party’s consent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the parties shall not, and shall direct their respective Affiliates not to, without the other party’s prior written consent, (i) waive any Privilege with respect to any of the other party’s Privileged Information, (ii) fail to defend any Privilege with respect to any such Privileged Information, or (iii) fail to take any other actions necessary to preserve any Privilege with respect to any such Privileged Information.
(b) Upon receipt by either party of any subpoena, discovery or other request that calls for the production or disclosure of Privileged Information of the other party, such party shall promptly notify the other party of the existence of the request and shall provide the other party a reasonable opportunity to review the information and to assert any rights it may have under this Section 5.06 or otherwise to prevent the production or disclosure of such Privileged Information. Each party agrees that it shall not produce or disclose any information that may be covered by a Privilege of the party under this Section 5.06 unless (i) the other party has provided its written consent to such production or disclosure (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) or (ii) a court of competent jurisdiction has entered a final, non-appealable order finding that the information is not entitled to protection under any applicable Privilege.
(c) Each of the Parent Group and the SpinCo Group covenants and agrees that, following the Distribution Effective Time, any internal or external legal counsel currently representing SpinCo Group (each a “Prior Company Counsel”) may serve as counsel to Parent Group and its Affiliates in connection with any matters arising under or related to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, including with respect to any litigation, Claim or obligation arising out of or related to this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any Ancillary Agreement, notwithstanding any representation by the Prior Company Counsel prior to the Distribution Effective Time. Parent Group and SpinCo Group hereby irrevocably (i) waive any Claim they have or may have that a Prior Company Counsel has a conflict of interest or is otherwise prohibited from engaging in such representation and (ii) covenant and agree that, in the event that a dispute arises after the Distribution Effective Time between SpinCo and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and Parent and its Affiliates, on the other hand, Prior Company Counsel may represent any member of the Parent Group and any Affiliates thereof in such dispute even though the interests of such Person(s) may be directly adverse to the Parent Group or the SpinCo Group or their respective Affiliates and even though Prior Company Counsel may have represented the SpinCo Group in a matter substantially related to such dispute.
(d) For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of, or obligate any Person to waive, any Privilege.
