Disclosure of Agreement The terms of this Settlement Agreement will be treated as confidential by the parties hereto until accepted by the Hearing Panel, and forever if, for any reason whatsoever, this Settlement Agreement is not accepted by the Hearing Panel, except with the written consent of both the Respondent and Staff or as may be required by law.
Disclosure of Agreements The agreements and documents described in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus and the Prospectus conform to the descriptions thereof contained therein and there are no agreements or other documents required to be described in the Registration Statement, the Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or to be filed with the Commission as exhibits to the Registration Statement, that have not been so described or filed. Each agreement or other instrument (however characterized or described) to which the Company is a party or by which its property or business is or may be bound or affected and (i) that is referred to in the Registration Statement, Preliminary Prospectus or the Prospectus or attached as an exhibit thereto, or (ii) is material to the Company’s business, has been duly and validly executed by the Company, is in full force and effect in all material respects and is enforceable against the Company and, to the Company’s knowledge, the other parties thereto, in accordance with its terms, except (x) as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally, (y) as enforceability of any indemnification or contribution provision may be limited under the federal and state securities laws, and (z) that the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to the equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought, and none of such agreements or instruments has been assigned by the Company, and neither the Company nor, to the Company’s knowledge, any other party is in breach or default thereunder and, to the Company’s knowledge, no event has occurred that, with the lapse of time or the giving of notice, or both, would constitute a breach or default thereunder. To the Company’s knowledge, performance by the Company of the material provisions of such agreements or instruments will not result in a material violation of any existing applicable law, rule, regulation, judgment, order or decree of any governmental agency or court, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over the Company or any of its assets or businesses, including, without limitation, those relating to environmental laws and regulations.
Confidentiality; Press Releases (a) Reliant and ASL will be exchanging confidential and proprietary information relating to the Active Ingredient and Products and their respective businesses at the inception of and from time to time during the term of this Agreement. The party receiving such information will maintain the information in confidence using the same standard of care it uses to maintain its own information in confidence. Such obligation of confidentiality shall not apply to information which (i) is known to the receiving party prior to the disclosure, (ii) is publicly known as of the date of the disclosure, (iii) becomes publicly known after the date of disclosure through no fault of the receiving party, (iv) is received from a third party who has no obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing party or (v) is developed independently by or for the receiving party. Such obligation of confidentiality shall continue for a period of five (5) years from the date of termination of this Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing Section 4.1(a), (i) Reliant shall be permitted to disclose to its manufacturers, subcontractors, wholesalers, other direct customers, investment bankers and/or financing sources such confidential information relating to the Products and this Agreement as Reliant shall reasonably determine to be necessary in order to effectively market and distribute the Products or otherwise engage in a bona fide financing transaction and (ii) ASL shall be permitted to disclose to its Affiliates, manufacturers, subcontractors, wholesalers, other direct customers, investment bankers and/or financing sources such confidential information relating to the Active Ingredient and Products as ASL may reasonably determine to be necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement, provided that such entities undertake the same confidentiality obligation as the disclosing party has with respect to the other’s confidential information and provided that ASL and its Affiliates may disclose the fact of the Agreement for purposes of marketing its services.
(c) Except as may be required by applicable laws, rules or regulations (including in connection with a public offering of securities), neither party will originate any publicity, news release, or other public announcement, written or oral, whether to the public press or otherwise, relating to this Agreement, any amendment hereto or to performance hereunder, or the existence of an arrangement between the parties, without the prior written approval of the other party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed (it being understood that such obligation is not intended to restrict either party’s ability to promote, market and sell the Products or its services in a commercially reasonable manner). In the event disclosure is required by applicable law, rules or regulations, then the party required to so disclose such information shall, to the extent possible, provide to the other party for its approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) a written copy of such public announcement at least ten (10) business days prior to disclosure. In the absence of a communication approving or disapproving of the public announcement from the party with the right of approval by the end of such ten (10) day period, such party shall be deemed to have approved the public announcement.
Nondisclosure of Proprietary Information (a) Except in connection with the faithful performance of Executive’s duties hereunder or pursuant to Section 7(c) or (e), Executive shall, in perpetuity, maintain in confidence and shall not directly, indirectly or otherwise, use, disseminate, disclose or publish, or use for Executive’s benefit or the benefit of any person, firm, corporation or other entity (other than the Company) any confidential or proprietary information or trade secrets of or relating to the Company (including business plans, business strategies and methods, acquisition targets, intellectual property in the form of patents, trademarks and copyrights and applications therefor, ideas, inventions, works, discoveries, improvements, information, documents, formulae, practices, processes, methods, developments, source code, modifications, technology, techniques, data, programs, other know-how or materials, owned, developed or possessed by the Company, whether in tangible or intangible form, information with respect to the Company’s operations, processes, products, inventions, business practices, finances, principals, vendors, suppliers, customers, potential customers, marketing methods, costs, prices, contractual relationships, regulatory status, prospects and compensation paid to employees or other terms of employment) (collectively, the “Confidential Information”), or deliver to any person, firm, corporation or other entity any document, record, notebook, computer program or similar repository of or containing any such Confidential Information. The Parties hereby stipulate and agree that, as between them, any item of Confidential Information is important, material and confidential and affects the successful conduct of the businesses of the Company (and any successor or assignee of the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include any information that has been published in a form generally available to the public or is publicly available or has become public knowledge prior to the date Executive proposes to disclose or use such information, provided that such publishing or public availability or knowledge of the Confidential Information shall not have resulted from Executive directly or indirectly breaching Executive’s obligations under this Section 7(a) or any other similar provision by which Executive is bound, or from any third-party known by Executive to be breaching a provision similar to that found under this Section 7(a). For the purposes of the previous sentence, Confidential Information will not be deemed to have been published or otherwise disclosed merely because individual portions of the information have been separately published, but only if material features comprising such information have been published or become publicly available.
(b) Upon termination of Executive’s employment with the Company for any reason, Executive will promptly deliver to the Company all correspondence, drawings, manuals, letters, notes, notebooks, reports, programs, plans, proposals, financial documents, or any other documents or property concerning the Company’s customers, business plans, marketing strategies, products, property or processes, provided that Executive may retain his compensation-related information, personal journal and rolodex, address book, appointment book, calendar and/or contact list.
(c) Notwithstanding Section 7(a), Executive may respond to a lawful and valid subpoena or other legal process but shall give the Company the earliest practicable notice thereof, shall, as much in advance of the return date as practicable, make available to the Company and its counsel the documents and other information sought and shall assist such counsel at Company’s sole expense in resisting or otherwise responding to such process, in each case to the extent permitted by applicable laws or rules.
(d) As used in this Section 7 and Section 8, the term “Company” shall include the Company and its direct and indirect subsidiaries.
(e) Nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit Executive from (i) disclosing information and documents when required by law, subpoena or court order (subject to the requirements of Section 7(c) above), (ii) disclosing information and documents to Executive’s attorney, financial or tax adviser for the purpose of securing legal, financial or tax advice, (iii) disclosing Executive’s post-employment restrictions in this Agreement in confidence to any potential new employer, or (iv) retaining, at any time, Executive’s personal correspondence, Executive’s personal contacts and documents related to Executive’s own personal benefits, entitlements and obligations.
Nondisclosure Agreement You will comply with the covenant regarding confidential information in Section 17 of the Employment Agreement, which covenant is incorporated herein by reference.
Confidential Information Agreement Executive’s receipt of any payments or benefits under Section 6 will be subject to Executive continuing to comply with the terms of Confidential Information Agreement (as defined in Section 10).
Confidentiality Agreements The parties hereto agree that this Agreement supersedes any provision of the Confidentiality Agreements that could be interpreted to preclude the exercise of any rights or the fulfillment of any obligations under this Agreement, and that none of the provisions included in the Confidentiality Agreements will act to preclude Holder from exercising the Option or exercising any other rights under this Agreement or act to preclude Issuer from fulfilling any of its obligations under this Agreement.
Confidentiality/Nondisclosure 19.1 Neither Party will, without the prior written consent of the other Party (a) issue any public announcement regarding, or make any other disclosure of the terms of, this Agreement or use the name or marks of the other Party or its Affiliates; or (b) disclose or use (except as expressly permitted by, or required to achieve the purposes of, this Agreement) the Confidential Information of the other Party. Consent may only be given on behalf of a Party by its Legal Department. However, a Party may disclose Confidential Information if required to do so by a governmental agency, by operation of law, or if necessary in any proceeding to establish rights or obligations under this Agreement, provided that the disclosing Party gives the non-disclosing Party reasonable prior written notice and the receiving Party will cooperate with the disclosing Party to seek or take appropriate protective measures and will make such disclosure in a manner to best protect the Confidential Information from further disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if reporting or filing obligations or requirements are imposed upon Qwest by any third party or regulatory agency in connection with this Agreement, CLEC agrees to assist Qwest in complying with such obligations and requirements, as reasonably required by Qwest and to hold Qwest harmless for any failure by CLEC in this regard. Qwest’s compliance with any regulatory filing obligation will not constitute a violation of this section. Each Party will use reasonable efforts to protect the other’s Confidential Information, and will use at least the same efforts to protect such Confidential Information as the Party would use to protect its own.
19.2 All Confidential Information will remain the property of the disclosing Party. A Party who receives Confidential Information via an oral communication may request written confirmation that the material is Confidential Information. A Party who delivers Confidential Information via an oral communication may request written confirmation that the Party receiving the information understands that the material is Confidential Information. Each Party has the right to correct an inadvertent failure to identify information as Confidential Information by giving written notification within thirty (30) Days after the information is disclosed. The receiving Party will from that time forward, treat such information as Confidential Information.
19.3 Upon request by the disclosing Party, the receiving Party will return all tangible copies of Confidential Information, whether written, graphic or otherwise, except that the receiving Party may retain one copy for archival purposes.
19.4 Each Party will keep all of the other Party's Confidential Information confidential and will disclose it on a need to know basis only. Each Party will use the other Party's Confidential Information only in connection with this Agreement and in accordance with Applicable Law. Neither Party will use the other Party's Confidential Information for any other purpose except upon such terms and conditions as may be agreed upon between the Parties in writing. If either Party loses, or makes an unauthorized disclosure of, the other Party's Confidential Information, it will notify such other Party immediately and use reasonable efforts to retrieve the information.
Proprietary Information Agreement Employee has executed a Proprietary Information Agreement as a condition of employment with the Company. The Proprietary Information Agreement shall not be limited by this Employment Agreement in any manner, and the Employee shall act in accordance with the provisions of the Proprietary Information Agreement at all times during the Term of this Employment Agreement.
NONDISCLOSURE OF LEASE TERMS Tenant acknowledges and agrees that the terms of this Lease are confidential and constitute proprietary information of Landlord. Disclosure of the terms could adversely affect the ability of Landlord to negotiate other leases and impair Landlord's relationship with other tenants. Accordingly, Tenant agrees that it, and its partners, officers, directors, employees and attorneys, shall not intentionally and voluntarily disclose the terms and conditions of this Lease to any other tenant or apparent prospective tenant of the Building or Project, either directly or indirectly, without the prior written consent of Landlord, provided, however, that Tenant may disclose the terms to prospective subtenants or assignees under this Lease.
