11. Protection of Intellectual Property and Proprietary Information.
(a) Protection of Intellectual Property Rights.
(i) The Bio-Tec Additives are formulated using valuable and proprietary
intellectual property held by Bio-Tec. Purchaser does not claim any ownership
rights with respect to the Technology used to manufacture the Bio-Tec Additives.
Purchaser agrees not to, directly or indirectly through any third party,
analyze, reverse engineer, formula reconstruct, or otherwise attempt to
ascertain the physical or chemical make-up of the Bio-Tec Additives. Purchaser
agrees not to modify or alter the Bio-Tec Additives. Any new or improved idea,
design, concept, improvement, or other invention made or developed by or for
Purchaser related to the biodegradation of plastic products shall be promptly
disclosed to Bio-Tec in a complete written disclosure. Purchaser hereby assigns
to Bio-Tec all right and interest in and to any such items, together with the
right to file patent applications in any country with respect thereto. Purchaser
shall, at the request of Bio-Tec and at the expense of Bio-Tec, cause patent
applications to be filed thereon in the manner requested by Bio-Tec and shall
promptly assign such applications to Bio-Tec, and shall cause to be executed all
such other instruments and documents as Bio-Tec may reasonably request in
connection therewith.
(ii) The Technology constitutes valuable trade secrets of Bio-Tec, and is
the proprietary and confidential property of Bio-Tec. Accordingly, Purchaser
shall not, without the prior express written consent of Bio-Tec, disclose or
reveal to any third party or utilize for its own benefit other than pursuant to
this Agreement, any such Technology. Purchaser further agrees to take all
reasonable precautions to preserve the confidentiality of Technology and shall

directly or indirectly, Bio-Tec's exclusive right and title to the Bio-Tec
Trademarks or the validity thereof. In the event that Purchaser publicly
questions or challenges, directly or indirectly, the validity of the Bio-Tec
Trademarks or assists any other person in doing so, Bio-Tec shall have the right
to terminate this Agreement. Purchaser agrees that its use of the Bio-Tec
Trademarks inures to the benefit of Bio-Tec and that the Purchaser shall not
acquire any rights in the Bio-Tec Trademarks.
(iv) It is agreed and understood that this Agreement is, in part, a license
of the Technology and know-how incorporated into the Invention and a license to
use Bio-Tec Trademarks. In the event that a patent does not issue or is
subsequently held to be invalid by a court of the United States or foreign
country or countries, such failure to issue or holding of invalidity shall not
render this Agreement invalid. In the event Purchaser questions or challenges,
directly or indirectly, the validity of any Bio-Tec patent rights or assists any
other person in doing so, Bio-Tec, at its sole option, can automatically
terminate this Agreement.
(b) Protection of Proprietary Business Information. In addition to the

which may include, but not be limited to, business plans, product applications,
studies, reports, and other technical and business information (hereinafter
referred to as "Proprietary Business Information"). Bio-Tec and Purchaser agree
to hold all Proprietary Business Information of the other in trust and
confidence and not disclose or use such Proprietary Business Information except

recipient; or, (iv) developed independently by the recipient without access to
the Proprietary Business Information of the other party. Notwithstanding the

7
Proprietary Business Information to the extent required by an order of any court
or other governmental authority, or as necessary for it or them to protect their
interest in this Agreement, but in each case only after the other party has been
so notified and has had the opportunity, if possible, to obtain reasonable
protection for such information in connection with such disclosure.
(c) Disclosures for Marketing Purposes. In the event that Purchaser desires
to disclose Technology or Bio-Tec Proprietary Business Information to potential
customers for purposes of the marketing and sale of Covered Products, Purchaser
shall provide Bio-Tec with written notice of such desire and shall make such
disclosures only with the advance written approval of Bio-Tec, and in such form
