hereinafter as "Disney") or other information of advantage or value to a
competitor that is not accessible or known to the general public ("Confidential
Information").
a. Use of Confidential Information. Operator shall not (and shall
direct its Personnel and other employees, officers and agents not to) use for
its (or his) own benefit any Confidential Information, and Operator shall not
(and shall direct its Personnel and other employees, officers and agents not to)
disclose any Confidential Information that is disclosed to Operator or any of
its Personnel or other employees, officers or agents by Disney or any agent
thereof (whether or not authorized to disclose such

4
Confidential Information) to any person or entity other than those to whom
Disney has authorized Operator in writing to disclose such Confidential
Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Operator may use such Confidential
Information as may be or has been disclosed by Disney to Operator, pursuant to
the terms hereof or otherwise, for the sole purpose of providing the services
required to be performed by Operator as set forth in Paragraph 1 of this
Agreement. Operator shall not make copies of any Confidential Information
without first receiving written approval from Disney and marking such copies as
"Confidential and Proprietary Property of Disneyland." Nothing in this Agreement
shall be deemed or construed to grant to Operator a license to use, sell,
develop, exploit, copy or further develop any Confidential Information. Operator
shall direct Personnel not to disclose Confidential Information to Operator.
b. Limited Disclosure, Nondisclosure Agreement. Operator shall
disclose or permit access to any of the Confidential Information only to
Personnel and other employees, officers or agents of Operator having a specific
need-to-know in Operator's provision of Personnel and related services hereunder
and, with respect to third-party agents of Operator, only after obtaining the
prior written consent of Disneyland (which consent Disneyland may withhold in
its sole discretion). Operator also shall take all steps necessary to ensure
fulfillment of the obligations of this Paragraph 6, to inform its consultants,
employees (including Personnel), officers and agents of their obligations of
nondisclosure and confidentiality established herein, and to obtain their
agreement to the fulfillment of such obligations, by requiring all consultants
and all employees (including Personnel), officers and agents of Operator to sign
a confidentiality agreement prohibiting their disclosure of any Confidential
Information, which agreement shall be in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto
and incorporated herein by this reference. Operator shall provide a copy of each
such signed confidentiality agreement to Disneyland.
c. Cooperation Re Subpoenas and Misappropriation. In the event
that a subpoena or other legal process served on Operator in any way concerns
Confidential Information obtained by Operator, its Personnel and other
employees, officers or agents, Operator agrees to notify Disneyland immediately
upon receipt of such subpoena or other legal process and to cooperate with
Disney, at Disney's expense, in any lawful effort by Disney to contest the legal
validity of such subpoena or the legal process. Nothing herein shall limit
Operator's ability to satisfy any governmentally required disclosure of its
relationship with Disneyland. In the event Operator becomes aware of any
misappropriation or misuse by any person or entity of any Confidential
Information, Operator shall immediately advise Disney in writing and, in the
event of any legal action brought by Disney in connection therewith against
third parties, Operator agrees that it will, at Disney's expense, cooperate and
provide such assistance as may be reasonably necessary to enable Disney to
successfully prosecute such legal action.
d. Third-Party Information. Operator, its Personnel and other
employees, officers and agents shall not disclose to Disneyland any information
that such person or entity knows to be proprietary or confidential information,
data, development or a trade secret of a third party without the prior written
consent of such third party. Operator agrees to take all reasonable steps
necessary to ensure fulfillment of this obligation.
e. Remedies; Return of Documents. In view of the nature of
Operator's engagement hereunder and the Confidential Information Operator and
its Personnel and other employees, officers and agents are likely to receive
during the term of this Agreement, Operator agrees that Disney would be
irreparably harmed by any violation or threatened violation of this Agreement
and that therefore Disney shall be entitled to seek an injunction prohibiting
Operator and its Personnel and other employees, officers and agents from any
violation or threatened violation of this Paragraph 6. Upon the expiration or
earlier termination of this Agreement (or of any particular Personnel's
provision of services hereunder) for any reason, Operator shall immediately
return (or shall direct that said Personnel immediately returns) to
