IN CONSIDERATION OF THE MUTUAL PROMISES AND COVENANTS CONTAINED IN THIS AGREEMENT AND THE MUTUAL DISCLOSURE OF CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION, THE PARTIES HERETO AGREE AS FOLLOWS:

  1. Definition of Confidential Information and Exclusions.

(a)        “Confidential Information” means nonpublic information that a Party to this Agreement (“Disclosing Party”) designates as being confidential to the Party that receives such information (“Receiving Party”) or which, under the circumstances surrounding disclosure ought to be treated as confidential by the Receiving Party.  Confidential Information includes, without limitation, information in tangible or intangible form relating to and/or including released or unreleased Disclosing Party’s software or hardware products, the marketing or promotion of any Disclosing Party’s product, Disclosing Party’s business policies or practices, and information received from others that the Disclosing Party is obligated to treat as confidential.  Except as otherwise indicated in this Agreement, the term “Disclosing Party” also includes all Affiliates of the Disclosing Party and, except as otherwise indicated, the term “Receiving Party” also includes all Affiliates of the Receiving Party.  An “Affiliate” means any person, partnership, joint venture, corporation, or other form of entClientrise, domestic or foreign, including but not limited to subsidiaries, that directly or indirectly, control, are controlled by, or are under common control with a Party.

(b)   Confidential Information shall not include any information, however designated, that:  (i) is or subsequently becomes publicly available without the Receiving Party’s breach of any obligation owed to the Disclosing Party; (ii) became known to the Receiving Party prior to the Disclosing Party’s disclosure of such information to the Receiving Party pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (iii) became known to the Receiving Party from a source other than the Disclosing Party other than by the breach of an obligation of confidentiality owed to the Disclosing Party; (iv) is independently developed by the Receiving Party; or (v) constitutes Feedback (as defined in Section 5 of this Agreement).

  1. Obligations Regarding Confidential Information

(a)   The Receiving Party shall:

  • Refrain from disclosing any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party to third parties for five (5) years following the date that the Disclosing Party first discloses such Confidential Information to the Receiving Party, except as expressly provided in Sections 2(b) and 2(c) of this Agreement;
  • Take reasonable security precautions, at least as great as the precautions it takes to protect its own confidential information, but no less than reasonable care, to keep confidential the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party;
  • Refrain from disclosing, reproducing, summarizing and/or distributing Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party except in pursuance of the Receiving Party’s business relationship with the Disclosing Party, and only as otherwise provided hereunder; and
  • Refrain from reverse engineering, decompiling, or disassembling any software code and/or pre-release hardware devices disclosed by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party under the terms of this Agreement, except as expressly permitted by applicable law.

(b)        The Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in accordance with a judicial or other governmental order, provided that the Receiving Party either (i) gives the undersigned Disclosing Party reasonable notice prior to such disclosure to allow the Disclosing Party a reasonable opportunity to seek a protective order or equivalent, or (ii) obtains written assurance from the applicable judicial or governmental entity that it will afford the Confidential Information the highest level of protection afforded under applicable law or regulation.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Receiving Party shall not disclose any computer source code that contains Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party in accordance with a judicial or other governmental order unless it complies with the requirement set forth in sub-section (i) of this Section 2(b).

(c)        The undersigned Receiving Party may disclose Confidential Information only to the Receiving Party’s employees, interns, agents, independent contractors, and consultants on a need-to-know basis.  The undersigned Receiving Party will have executed or shall execute appropriate written agreements with such employees and third parties sufficient to enable the Receiving Party to enforce all the provisions of this Agreement.

(d)      The Receiving Party shall notify the undersigned Disclosing Party immediately upon discovery of any unauthorized use or disclosure of Confidential Information or any other breach of this Agreement by the Receiving Party and its employees, interns, agents, independent, contractors and consultants, and will cooperate with the Disclosing Party in every reasonable way to help the Disclosing Party regain possession of the Confidential Information and prevent its further unauthorized use or disclosure.

(e)      The Receiving Party shall, at the Disclosing Party’s request, return all originals, copies, reproductions and summaries of Confidential Information and all other tangible materials and devices provided to the Receiving Party as Confidential Information, or at the Disclosing Party’s option, certify destruction of the same.

  1. Remedies

The Parties acknowledge that monetary damages may not be a sufficient remedy for unauthorized disclosure of Confidential Information and that the Disclosing Party shall be entitled, without waiving any other rights or remedies, to such injunctive or equitable relief as may be deemed proper by a court of competent jurisdiction.

  1. Miscellaneous

(a)        All Confidential Information is and shall remain the property of the Disclosing Party.  By disclosing Confidential Information to the Receiving Party, the Disclosing Party does not grant any express or implied right to the Receiving Party to or under any patents, copyrights, trademarks, or trade secret information except as otherwise provided herein.  The Disclosing Party reserves without prejudice the ability to protect its rights under any such patents, copyrights, trademarks, or trade secrets except as otherwise provided herein.

(b)        In the event that the Disclosing Party provides any computer software and/or hardware to the Receiving Party as Confidential Information under the terms of this Agreement, such computer software and/or hardware may only be used by the Receiving Party for evaluation and providing Feedback (as defined in Section 5 of this Agreement) to the Disclosing Party.  Unless otherwise agreed upon by the Disclosing Party and the Receiving Party, all such computer software and/or hardware is provided “AS IS” without warranty of any kind, and the Receiving Party agrees that neither the Disclosing Party nor its suppliers shall be liable for any damages whatsoever arising from or relating to the Receiving Party’s use or inability to use such software and/or hardware.

(c)        The Parties agree to comply with all applicable international and national laws that apply to (i) any Confidential Information, or (ii) any product (or any part thereof), process or service that is the direct product of the Confidential Information, including the U.S. Export Administration Regulations, as well as end-user, end-use and destination restrictions issued by U.S. and other governments.

(d)        The terms of confidentiality under this Agreement shall not be construed to limit either the Disclosing Party or the Receiving Party’s right to independently develop or acquire products without use of the other party’s Confidential Information.  Further, the Receiving Party shall be free to use for any purpose the residuals resulting from access to or work with the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, provided that the Receiving Party shall not disclose the Confidential Information except as expressly permitted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. The term “residuals” means information in intangible form, which is retained in memory by persons who have had access to the Confidential Information, including ideas, concepts, know-how or techniques contained therein.  The Receiving Party shall not have any obligation to limit or restrict the assignment of such persons or to pay royalties for any work resulting from the use of residuals.  However, this sub-paragraph shall not be deemed to grant to the Receiving Party a license under the Disclosing Party’s copyrights or patents.

(e)        This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.  It shall not be modified except by a written agreement dated subsequent to the date of this Agreement and signed by both Parties.  None of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been waived by any act or acquiescence on the part of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party, their agents, or employees, but only by an instrument in writing signed by an authorized employee of the Disclosing Party and the Receiving Party.  No waiver of any provision of this Agreement shall constitute a waiver of any other provision(s) or of the same provision on another occasion.

(f)        If either the Disclosing Party or the Receiving Party employs attorneys to enforce any rights arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the prevailing Party shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees.  This Agreement shall be construed and controlled by the laws of the State of Arizona, and the Parties further consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the federal courts sitting in Maricopa County, Arizona, unless no federal subject matter jurisdiction exists, in which case the Parties consent to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the Superior of Maricopa County, Arizona.  The Service Provider  waives all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non conveniens.  Process may be served on either Party in the manner authorized by applicable law or court rule.

(g)  This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Party’s respective successors and lawful assigns; provided, however, that neither Party may assign this Agreement (whether by operation of law, sale of securities or assets, merger or otherwise), in whole or in part, without the prior written approval of the other Party.  Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section shall be void.

(h)   If any provision of this Agreement shall be held by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect.

(i)    Either Party may terminate this Agreement with or without cause upon ninety (90) days prior written notice to the other Party.  All sections of this Agreement relating to the rights and obligations of the Parties concerning Confidential Information disclosed during the term of the Agreement shall survive any such termination.

  1. Suggestions and Feedback

 

The Receiving Party may from time to time provide suggestions, comments, or other feedback (“Feedback”) to the Disclosing Party with respect to Confidential Information provided originally by the Disclosing Party.  Both parties agree that all Feedback is and shall be given entirely voluntarily. Feedback, even if designated as confidential by the Party providing the Feedback, shall not, absent a separate written agreement, create any confidentiality obligation for the Party receiving the Feedback.  Furthermore, except as otherwise provided herein or in a separate subsequent written agreement between the Parties, the Party receiving such Feedback shall be free to use, disclose, reproduce, license, or otherwise distribute, and exploit the Feedback provided to it as it sees fit, entirely without obligation or restriction of any kind on account of intellectual property rights or otherwise.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Parties hereto have executed this Agreement.
