reasonably be regarded by the Receiving Party as confidential under the circumstances
surrounding the disclosure, and specifically includes, without limitation, information or
data relating to the Offer Sheet, the Product, operations, processes, plans, intentions,
2

product information, whether in writing, orally, in electronic form or by any other means,

whether before or after the date of this Agreement.

The Receiving Party shall:

(a) use the Confidential Information for no other purpose than those provided in
Paragraph 1 hereof, unless use for other purposes is expressly allowed in writing by the
Disclosing Party;

(b) maintain the Confidential Information in confidence and shall exercise in


relation thereto no lesser security measures and degree of care than those which it applies to
its own confidential information, which it hereby warrants as providing adequate protection
against unauthorized disclosure, copying or use;

(c) ensure that disclosure of such Confidential Information is restricted to those


persons having need to know the same for purposes of performing its obligations under this
Agreement;
