4.2

Protection of Confidential Information. The Parties acknowledge that in the course of the work hereunder, it will be necessary for each Party to disclose Confidential Information to the other Party. Each Party, as a Recipient, agrees not to transfer or otherwise disclose any Confidential Information to any third party, and not to use the Confidential Information except solely to perform its obligations under this Agreement. Each Party, as a Recipient, (i) may disclose Confidential Information solely to those of its affiliates, employees, representatives, agents, independent consultants and advisors (collectively, “Representatives”) on a need-to-know basis who are bound by written obligations of non-disclosure and non-use no less protective than those contained herein, and (ii) shall take the same precautions to protect against unauthorized disclosure or use of such Confidential Information that such Party takes to protect its own confidential information, but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care.

4.3

Exception to Confidentiality Obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the confidentiality and non-use obligations set forth in this Article 4 shall not apply to:

4.3.1

Information which the Recipient can prove to have already been known to or possessed by it prior to the disclosure by Discloser, provided that the source of such information was not known by the Recipient or its Representatives to be bound by a confidentiality obligation to the Discloser;

4.3.2

Information which has already been known to the public prior to its disclosure to the Recipient by or on behalf of the Discloser;

4.3.3

Information which becomes known to the public after the disclosure without any fault of the Recipient;

4.3.4

Information which is lawfully received by the Recipient from a third party having legitimate authority to disclose such information and not bound by a confidentiality obligation to the Discloser; and

Information which is independently developed by Recipient without access to or use of the Confidential Information of the other Party.

4.4

Required Disclosure of Confidential Information. The Recipient may disclose Confidential Information of the Discloser to a court or other government body of competent jurisdiction when required to do so pursuant to an order of such body or if otherwise required to do so pursuant to Applicable Law (including without limitation in connection with filings with the United States Food and Drug Administration, the United States Securities and Exchange Commission, or any other applicable governmental agency) or the rules of any securities exchange, provided it uses reasonable efforts (i) to give prompt prior notice to the Discloser to contest such order, and (ii) to limit disclosure to that which is required pursuant to Applicable Law.

4.5

Effect of Termination. Upon termination of this Agreement, all Confidential Information (and all copies thereof) furnished to the Recipient or its Representatives by or on behalf of the Discloser pursuant hereto, shall be, at the Discloser’s option, returned to the Discloser or destroyed and no copy thereof shall be retained, except (i) that a single copy of all such Confidential Information may be retained in confidence by the Recipient’s internal or outside legal counsel solely for the purposes of determining its obligations hereunder, and (ii) the Recipient may retain one or more copies of Confidential Information if the Recipient is required to retain one or more copies of any such Confidential Information to comply with all Applicable Law. The Recipient and its Representatives will continue to be bound by its obligations of non-use and non- disclosure of Confidential Information of the Discloser under this Agreement for seven (7) years after termination of this Agreement; provided, however, that the obligations of the Recipient and its Representatives with respect to trade secrets of the Discloser shall continue perpetually after termination of this Agreement.

4.6

Equitable Relief. The Parties acknowledge that remedies at law may be inadequate to protect the Discloser against any actual or threatened breach by the Recipient or its Representatives of the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement, and, without prejudice to any other rights and remedies otherwise available to the Discloser, the Discloser may seek injunctive relief in the Discloser’s favor to bar the use or disclosure of Confidential Information without proof of actual damages or requirement to post bond.
