Protection from Disclosure. If the Receiving Party or its Representatives are requested or required (by oral questions, interrogatories, informal or formal request for information or documents, subpoena, civil investigative demand or other process) to disclose any Information, the Receiving Party will provide Xxxxxxxx with prompt notice of such request or requirement so that Xxxxxxxx may intervene or seek an appropriate protective order. If, failing the entry of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver hereunder, the Receiving Party or its Representatives are, in the written opinion of its counsel, compelled to disclose Information, the Receiving Party or its Representatives, as the case may be, may disclose that portion of the Information which its counsel advises that the Receiving Party or its Representatives, as the case may be, are compelled to disclose and will exercise reasonable efforts to obtain assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to that portion of the Information which is disclosed. In any event, the Receiving Party or its Representatives, as the case may be, will not oppose action by Xxxxxxxx to obtain an appropriate protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to the Information. The provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to any action or proceeding brought by either party against the other party to enforce the provisions of this Agreement.
