Each Party agrees to use the Proprietary Information of the other Party in accordance with the terms of this Agreement solely for the purposes of this Agreement and/or any resultant Subcontract or Prime Contract. Any transfer of Proprietary Information between the Parties shall not be construed as a grant of any right or license to the receiving Party with respect to the information delivered or otherwise made available to the disclosing Party, except as expressly set forth herein or in the License Agreement, as mutually agreed to and executed by the Parties. The restrictions on disclosure or use of Proprietary Information by TEAMMATE shall apply to all materials derived by TEAMMATE or others from Boeing's Proprietary Information. Boeing shall not be required to disclose any particular item of its Proprietary Information or to make available any software or data other than as explicitly called out in this Agreement.

7.2

The Parties have been exchanging Proprietary Information under the terms of Proprietary Information Agreement (“PIA”) 2011-7677 dated 9/27/2011 and may continue to exchange Proprietary Information under the PIA during the Term of this Agreement for matters unrelated to the Program or this Agreement. For all information provided by the Parties to support the performance of this Agreement, the Proprietary Information provisions of this Agreement shall govern such confidential, proprietary, and trade secret information and materials.

7.3

Each Party agrees that any Proprietary Information delivered or communicated to one another in connection with this Agreement shall be kept confidential by the receiving Party and shall not be disclosed to any third party, unless a specific written release is obtained from the disclosing Party. Each Party agrees: (i) to make the other Party’s Proprietary Information available only to those employees who require access to it in the performance of this Agreement, a resultant Subcontract, or a Prime Contract; and (ii) to require such employees to protect such confidentiality under written agreement terms at least as restrictive as this Agreement.

7.4

If a receiving Party uses contract labor, consultants, or subcontractors in the performance of this Agreement or a resultant Subcontract, and the receiving Party desires to disclose the other Party’s Proprietary Information to such personnel or subcontractors who have a need to know such Proprietary Information to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, release and disclosure are permitted to such contract labor, consultants, or subcontractors who have a need to know such Proprietary Information for the limited purpose of performing under this Agreement or a Subcontract, provided that such contract labor, consultants, and/or subcontractors have entered into separate non-disclosure agreements directly with the receiving Party with terms at least as restrictive as those governing the use of Proprietary Information in this Agreement, and disclosures are made in accordance with the terms of such agreements. The receiving Party shall be responsible, and liable to the disclosing Party, for any failure of the receiving Party’s employees, contract labor, consultants, or subcontractors receiving Proprietary Information under this Agreement to comply with the terms of this Agreement.

BOEING PROPRIETARY Page 7 of 21 Boeing/PositiveID SM Teaming Agreement No. TA-2012-00335

But this Agreement does take precedence over specific legends or statements that the disclosing Party marks on Proprietary Information that conflict with this Article 7.

7.7

A receiving Party will, upon written request or termination of this Agreement (in the event that the Parties do not enter into a resultant Subcontract), use reasonable efforts to destroy all received Proprietary Information, including copies, then in its possession or control.

If one of the Parties does not desire to file a patent application covering a Joint Invention in any particular country or to equally share in the expenses, the other Party shall have the right, at its own expense, to file such application and shall have control over the prosecution of such application and maintenance of any patent that may be issued, including the sole right to abandon such application or patent at any time. Any patent issuing from such application filed by one Party without equal expense sharing by the other Party will be solely owned by the Party who paid for the application and maintenance of such patent, and the non-contributing party hereby assigns all right, title, and interest in such application to the Party electing to pursue and fund such patent.
