The parties agree that their respective officers and employees shall treat all such proprietary information as confidential and will not use or disclose information contained in, or derived from such material for any purpose other than in connection with the carrying out of their responsibilities under this Agreement and the management of the Trust’s assets, provided, however, that this shall not apply in the case of: (i) information that is publicly available; and (ii) disclosures required by law or requested by any regulatory authority that may have jurisdiction over Portfolio Manager or the Trust, as the case may be, in which case such party shall request such confidential treatment of such information as may be reasonably available. In addition, each party shall use its reasonable efforts to ensure that its agents or affiliates who may gain access to such proprietary information shall be made aware of the proprietary nature and shall likewise treat such materials as confidential.

Portfolio Manager agrees that it will not use any Xxxx without the prior written consent of the Trust. Portfolio Manager consents to use of its name, performance data, biographical data and other pertinent data, and the Parametric Marks (as defined below), by the Trust for use in marketing and sales literature, provided that any such marketing and sales literature shall not be used by the Trust without the prior written consent of Portfolio Manager, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Trust shall have full responsibility for the compliance by any such marketing and sales literature with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and Portfolio Manager will have no responsibility or liability therefor. The provisions of this Section 8 shall survive termination of this Agreement. It is acknowledged and agreed that the names “Parametric Portfolio Associates” and “Parametric Xxxxxxx” and any portions or derivatives thereof, as well as any logo that is now or shall later become associated with such name (“Parametric Marks”), are valuable property of Portfolio Manager and that the use of the Parametric Marks by the Trust or its agents is permitted only so long as this Agreement is in place.

Term of Nondisclosure Restrictions I understand that Confidential Information and Third Party Information is never to be used or disclosed by me, as provided in this Section 1. If a temporal limitation on my obligation not to use or disclose such information is required under applicable law, and the Agreement or its restriction(s) cannot otherwise be enforced, I agree and Company agrees that the two (2) year period after the date my employment ends will be the temporal limitation relevant to the contested restriction, provided, however, that this sentence will not apply to trade secrets protected without temporal limitation under applicable law.
Disclosure and Use Restrictions The Executive agrees and covenants: (i) to treat all Confidential Information as strictly confidential; (ii) to not use Confidential Information except for the benefit of the Company; (iii) not to directly or indirectly disclose, publish, communicate, or make available Confidential Information, or allow it to be disclosed, published, communicated, or made available, in whole or part, to any entity or person whatsoever (including other employees of the Company) not having a need to know and authority to know and use the Confidential Information in connection with the business of the Company and, in any event, not to anyone outside of the direct employ of the Company except as required in the performance of the Executive’s authorized employment duties to the Company or with the prior consent of the Board (and then, such disclosure shall be made only within the limits and to the extent of such duties or consent); and (iii) not to access or use any Confidential Information, and not to copy any documents, records, files, media, or other resources containing any Confidential Information, or remove any such documents, records, files, media, or other resources from the premises or control of the Company, except as required in the performance of the Executive’s authorized employment duties to the Company or with the prior consent of the Board (and then, such disclosure shall be made only within the limits and to the extent of such duties or consent). Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent disclosure of Confidential Information as may be required by applicable law or regulation, or pursuant to the valid order of a court of competent jurisdiction or an authorized government agency, provided that the disclosure does not exceed the extent of disclosure required by such law, regulation, or order. The Executive shall promptly provide written notice of any such order to the Board.
Authorization to Modify Restrictions It is the intention of the parties that the provisions of Article IV hereof shall be enforceable to the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, but that the unenforceability (or modification to conform to such law) of any provision or provisions hereof shall not render unenforceable, or impair, the remainder thereof. If any provision or provisions hereof shall be deemed invalid or unenforceable, either in whole or in part, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to delete or modify, as necessary, the offending provision or provisions and to alter the bounds thereof in order to render it valid and enforceable.
Disclosure and Use Restriction Except as expressly provided herein, the Parties agree that, for the Term and for five (5) years thereafter, each Party will keep completely confidential and will not publish, submit for publication or otherwise disclose, and will not use for any purpose except for the purposes contemplated by this Agreement, any Confidential Information received from the other Party.
Use of Name and Logo The Trust agrees that it shall furnish to the Manager, prior to any use or distribution thereof, copies of all prospectuses, statements of additional information, proxy statements, reports to stockholders, sales literature, advertisements, and other material prepared for distribution to stockholders of the Trust or to the public, which in any way refer to or describe the Manager or which include any trade names, trademarks or logos of the Manager or of any affiliate of the Manager. The Trust further agrees that it shall not use or distribute any such material if the Manager reasonably objects in writing to such use or distribution within five (5) business days after the date such material is furnished to the Manager. The Manager and/or its affiliates own the names "Sierra", "Composite" and any other names which may be listed from time to time on a Schedule B to be attached hereto that they may develop for use in connection with the Trust, which names may be used by the Trust only with the consent of the Manager and/or its affiliates. The Manager, on behalf of itself and/or its affiliates, consents to the use by the Trust of such names or any other names embodying such names, but only on condition and so long as (i) this Agreement shall remain in full force, (ii) the Fund and the Trust shall fully perform, fulfill and comply with all provisions of this Agreement expressed herein to be performed, fulfilled or complied with by it, and (iii) the Manager is the manager of each Fund of the Trust. No such name shall be used by the Trust at any time or in any place or for any purposes or under any conditions except as provided in this section. The foregoing authorization by the Manager, on behalf of itself and/or its affiliates, to the Trust to use such names as part of a business or name is not exclusive of the right of the Manager and/or its affiliates themselves to use, or to authorize others to use, the same; the Trust acknowledges and agrees that as between the Manager and/or its affiliates and a Fund or the Trust, the Manager and/or its affiliates have the exclusive right so to use, or authorize others to use, such names, and the Trust agrees to take such action as may reasonably be requested by the Manager, on behalf of itself and/or its affiliates, to give full effect to the provisions of this section (including, without limitation, consenting to such use of such names). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Trust agrees that, upon (i) any violation of the provisions of this Agreement by the Trust or (ii) any termination of this Agreement, by either party or otherwise, the Trust will, at the request of the Manager, on behalf of itself and/or its affiliates, made within six months after such violation or termination, use its best efforts to change the name of the Trust so as to eliminate all reference, if any, to such names and will not thereafter transact any business in a name containing such names in any form or combination whatsoever, or designate itself as the same entity as or successor to an entity of such names, or otherwise use such names or any other reference to the Manager and/or its affiliates, except as may be required by law. Such covenants on the part of the Trust shall be binding upon it, its Trustees, officers, shareholders, creditors and all other persons claiming under or through it. The provisions of this section shall survive termination of this Agreement.
Restriction on Disclosure and Use of Confidential Information Participant agrees that Participant shall not, directly or indirectly, use any Confidential Information on Participant’s own behalf or on behalf of any Person other than Company, or reveal, divulge, or disclose any Confidential Information to any Person not expressly authorized by the Company to receive such Confidential Information. This obligation shall remain in effect for as long as the information or materials in question retain their status as Confidential Information. Participant further agrees that he/she shall fully cooperate with the Company in maintaining the Confidential Information to the extent permitted by law. The parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is not intended to, and does not, alter either the Company’s rights or Participant’s obligations under any state or federal statutory or common law regarding trade secrets and unfair trade practices. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Participant shall not be restricted from: (i) disclosing information that is required to be disclosed by law, court order or other valid and appropriate legal process; provided, however, that in the event such disclosure is required by law, Participant shall provide the Company with prompt notice of such requirement so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective order prior to any such required disclosure by Participant; and (ii) reporting possible violations of federal, state, or local law or regulation to any governmental agency or entity, or from making other disclosures that are protected under the whistleblower provisions of federal, state, or local law or regulation, and Participant shall not need the prior authorization of the Company to make any such reports or disclosures and shall not be required to notify the Company that Participant has made such reports or disclosures.
Acknowledgment Regarding Restrictions Employee recognizes and agrees that the restraints contained in Section 6 (both separately and in total), including the geographic scope thereof in light of Company’s marketing efforts, are reasonable and enforceable in view of Company’s legitimate interests in protecting its Confidential Information and customer goodwill and the limited scope of the restrictions in Section 6.
