Definition of Confidential Information. For the purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information means any information disclosed by the Company to Confidant, either directly or indirectly, in writing, orally or by inspection of tangible objects or by the viewing of product demonstrations (including, without limitation, documents, prototypes and equipment), which is designated or described by the Company as "Confidential," "Proprietary" or some similar designation or, which, by the nature of the circumstances surrounding the disclosure, ought in good faith to be treated as proprietary and/or confidential. Confidential Information may also include information disclosed to the Company by third parties, which is disclosed to Confidant. Confidential Information shall not include any information which (i) is publicly known and is generally available in the public domain through no action or inaction of Confidant; (ii) was already in the possession of Confidant at the time of disclosure by the Company, as shown by Confidant's files and records immediately prior to the time of disclosure; (iii) is obtained by Confidant from an independent third party without a breach of such third party's obligations of confidentiality to the Company; or (iv) is independently developed by Confidant by personnel of Confident who had no access to the Company's Confidential Information, as shown by documents and other competent evidence in Confidant's possession. 3. Non-use and Nondisclosure. Confidant agrees that it will not use any of the Companys Confidential Information for any purpose except for the Authorized Purpose. Confidant agrees that it will not disclose any of the Companys Confidential Information to (i) any third parties or (ii) Confidant's own employees, except for those employees who are required to have the information in connection with the Authorized Purpose. Confidant shall not reverse engineer, disassemble or decompile any prototypes, software or other tangible objects which embody the Companys Confidential Information and which are provided to Confidant hereunder. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to grant any rights to Confidant under any patent, copyright or any other proprietary right of the Company, nor shall this Agreement grant Confidant any rights in or to the Companys Confidential Information except as expressly set forth herein. 4. Maintenance of Confidentiality. Confidant agrees that it shall take reasonable measures to protect the secrecy of and avoid the disclosure and the unauthorized use of the Companys Confidential Information. Without limiting the foregoing, Confidant shall take at least those measures that it takes to protect its own most highly confidential information and shall ensure that each of its employees who have access to the Companys Confidential Information has signed a non-use and nondisclosure agreement in content similar to the provisions hereof, prior to any disclosure of Confidential Information to such employees. Confidant shall not make any copies of the Companys Confidential Information without the Companys prior written consent. Confidant shall reproduce the Company's proprietary rights notices on any such approved copies, in the same manner in which such notices were set forth in or on the original. In the event that Confidant is required by law to disclose any of the Confidential Information, Confidant agrees to give the Company prompt written notice of such requirement prior to such disclosure and to provide the Company with assistance in obtaining an order protecting the information from disclosure.
