Except to the extent expressly authorized by this Agreement or otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, and subject to the other applicable terms of this Article 4, the Parties agree that the receiving Party (the “Receiving Party”) will keep confidential and not publish or otherwise disclose or use for any purpose other than as provided for in this Agreement any information or materials, patentable or otherwise, in any form (written, oral, photographic, electronic, magnetic, or otherwise) that is disclosed to it by the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) pursuant to this Agreement, including all information concerning any RSL Collaboration Agreement, Option Products and Option IP, and any other technical or business information of whatever nature concerning the Disclosing Party or its technology or business (collectively, “Confidential Information” of the Disclosing Party), except that the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to its Affiliates and its Affiliates’ respective officers, directors, employees, agents, subcontractors and consultants with a need to know such Confidential Information to assist the Receiving Party with the activities contemplated or required of it by this Agreement (and who will be advised of the Receiving Party’s obligations hereunder and who are bound by confidentiality and non-use obligations with respect to such Confidential Information no less onerous than those set forth in this Agreement) (each, a “Recipient”). For clarity, all information and materials provided by a Counterparty to RSL or a Covered Affiliate in connection with a RSL Collaboration Agreement is deemed to be the Confidential Information of RSL, subject to Section 4.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Parties acknowledge the practical difficulty of policing the use of information in the unaided memory of the Receiving Party or its Recipients, and as such each Party agrees that the Receiving Party will not be liable for the use by any of its Recipients of specific Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party that is retained in the unaided memory of such Recipient; provided, that (a) such Recipient is not aware that such Confidential Information is the confidential information of Disclosing Party at the time of such use; (b) the foregoing is not intended to grant, and will not be deemed to grant, the Receiving Party, its Affiliates, or its Recipients (i) a right to disclose the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information or (ii) a license under any Patents or other intellectual property right of the Disclosing Party; and (c) such Recipient has not intentionally memorized such Confidential Information for use outside this Agreement. For the purpose of this Article 4, the term “Disclosing Party” will include each Party and its Affiliates and their and its respective officers, directors, employees, agents, subcontractors and consultants who are directed or authorized to disclose such Party’s or Affiliates’ Confidential Information, and the term “Receiving Party” will include each Party and its Affiliates.

CONFIDENTIAL

4.2 Exceptions. Notwithstanding Section 4.1, the obligations of Section 4.1 will not apply to any specific Confidential Information that the Receiving Party thereof can demonstrate, in each case by competent evidence:

(a) was already known to the Receiving Party or any of its Recipients, other than under an obligation of confidentiality, at the time of disclosure;

(b) was generally available to the public or was otherwise part of the public domain at the time of its disclosure to the Receiving Party;

(e) was independently developed by the Receiving Party or any of its Recipients without use of or reference to any information or materials disclosed by the Disclosing Party.

Information specific to the use of certain compounds, methods, conditions or features will not be deemed to be within the foregoing exceptions merely because such information is embraced by general disclosures in the public domain or in the possession of the Receiving Party or its Recipients. In addition, a combination of information will not be deemed to fall within the foregoing exceptions, even if all of the components fall within an exception, unless the combination itself and its significance are in the public domain or in the possession of the Receiving Party prior to the disclosures hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, neither the act of using information in a clinical trial nor the filing of information with a governmental authority shall, for the purpose of this Article 4, in and of itself be deemed to place such information in the public domain.

4.3 Permitted Disclosures. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.1 or Section 4.2, the Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party if and to the extent such disclosure is reasonably necessary or useful in:

(a) the performance by the Receiving Party of its obligations or exercise of its rights as contemplated by this Agreement; provided that, wherever reasonable and practicable in the circumstances, the recipient of any such Confidential Information will be subject to obligations of confidentiality and non-use with respect to such Confidential Information substantially similar to the obligations of confidentiality and non-use of the Receiving Party pursuant to this Article 4;

(b) prosecuting or defending litigation with respect to a Party or its Affiliates; provided that a protective order or any similar measures are sought by such Party with respect to the information to be disclosed, to the extent reasonably possible;

performance of any such license, collaboration or merger agreement; and

(4)

disclosure to actual or potential Third Party investors in confidential financing documents;

provided, in each case, that any such Third Party agrees to be bound by obligations of confidentiality and non-use substantially similar to the obligations of confidentiality and non-use of the Receiving Party pursuant to this Article 4.

4.4 Advance Notice of Compelled Disclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Receiving Party or a Recipient is required to make a disclosure of the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information pursuant to Section 4.3(c) to comply with a subpoena or other legal order, it shall give reasonable advance notice to the Disclosing Party of such disclosure and give the Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to quash such subpoena or order and to obtain a protective order requiring that the Confidential Information and documents that are the subject of such subpoena or order be held in confidence by such court or agency or, if disclosed, be used only for the purposes for which such subpoena or order was issued; provided that, if such subpoena or order is not quashed or a protective order is not obtained, the Confidential Information disclosed in response to such subpoena or order will be limited to the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed in response to such subpoena or order and will still be subject to the restrictions on use set forth in this Article 4.

4.5 Confidentiality of this Agreement and its Terms. Except as otherwise provided in this Article 4, each Party agrees not to disclose to any Third Party the existence of this Agreement or the terms and conditions of this Agreement without the prior written consent of the other Party.

4.6 Effect of Assignment of RSL Collaboration Agreements. If Myovant exercises the Option and accepts the assignment of a RSL Collaboration Agreement, then all Confidential Information relating to such Collaboration Agreement and the associated Option Products and Option IP will thereafter be deemed to be Myovant’s Confidential Information, such that Myovant will be deemed to be the Disclosing Party with respect to such Confidential Information and RSL will be deemed to be the Receiving Party with respect to such Confidential Information.
