or
other communications without the prior written consent of the other, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed, except that no prior
consent shall be required if such disclosure is required by law, in which case
the disclosing party shall provide the other party with prior notice of such
public statement, filing or other communication and shall incorporate into

public statement, filing or other communication the reasonable comments of
the
other party.
Section

respective directors, officers, employees, agents, and advisors to maintain

confidence, any written, oral, or other information obtained in confidence
from

by this Agreement, unless (i) such information is already known to such party
or
to others not bound by a duty of confidentiality or such information becomes
publicly available through no fault of such party, (ii) the use of such
information is necessary or appropriate in making any required filing with
the

(b)

12.3(a),
the
party requested or required to make the disclosure (the "disclosing

the absence of a protective order or other remedy or the receipt of a waiver
by

counsel, legally compelled to disclose the information of the providing party,
the disclosing party may, without liability hereunder, disclose only that
portion of the providing party's information which such counsel advises is
legally required to be disclosed, provided that the disclosing party exercises
its reasonable efforts to preserve the confidentiality of the providing party's
information, including, without limitation, by cooperating with the providing
party to obtain an appropriate protective order or other relief assurance that
confidential treatment will be accorded the providing party's
information.

transactions contemplated by this Agreement are not consummated, each party
will
return or destroy as much of such written information as the other party may
reasonably request.

in
writing signed by the other party; (b) no waiver that may be given by a party
will be applicable except in the specific instance for which it is given; and
