In the case of any disclosure permitted by clause (b) or (c), the Backup Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (A) provide the Servicer, each Client and the Indenture Trustee with advance notice of any such disclosure and (B) cooperate with the Servicer, each Client and the Indenture Trustee in limiting the extent or effect of any such disclosure. To the extent that any information provided to the Backup Servicer in connection with this Agreement

meets the definition of “non-public personal information” as that term is defined in Title V of the GLB Act and/or is subject to protection under any federal or state statute, rule, regulation or guideline relating to privacy (including, but not limited to, the GLB Act and each federal or state rule, regulation or guideline implementing requirement of that statute) (“NPI Rules”), the Backup Servicer shall treat such information as confidential in accordance with the terms of the GLB Act and the NPI Rules.
