	7.	CONFIDENTIALITY 

 7.1 The
Party receiving Information (the “Receiving Party”) from the other Party (the “Disclosing Party”) undertakes to treat the Information as strictly confidential and to use the Information in accordance with the terms
and conditions set forth herein and will use such Information strictly to comply with its obligations set forth in this Agreement. 
 7.2
The Receiving Party undertakes to make the Information available only to its employees on a need-to-know basis and to take all steps necessary to protect the Information and to ensure that these employees shall not disclose or use at any time such
Information in a manner which is not authorized under this Agreement. In no event shall the Receiving Party communicate the Information to third parties without the prior written approval of the Disclosing Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
should the Receiving Party require the assistance of third parties, these third parties will be subject to substantially similar conditions of confidentiality as the Receiving Party. 
 In the case of a breach of these obligations by these third parties, the Receiving Party remains responsible for them towards the Disclosing Party. 

7.3 The obligations of this Section 7 shall not apply however to Information that: 

 

	a.	was known to the Receiving Party prior to its receipt from the Disclosing Party as documented by the Receiving Party’s written records, or,


  

	b.	was known to the public, or generally available to the public prior to its receipt from the Disclosing Party, or, 


 

	c.	became known to the public or generally available to the public subsequent to its receipt from the Disclosing Party, through no breach of this Agreement by the
Receiving Party, or, 

  

	d.	was received by the Receiving Party, at any time, from a third party under no obligation of confidentiality to the Disclosing Party concerning such part of the
Information, or, 

  

	e.	was independently developed by the Receiving Party prior to disclosure or thereafter by the Disclosing Party, as documented by the Receiving Party’s written
records. 

 7.4 For the purposes of this Agreement, no Information shall be deemed to be in the public domain or knowledge
or in the possession or knowledge of the Receiving Party merely because such Information is embraced by more general information in the public domain or knowledge or in the possession or knowledge of the Receiving Party. 

7.5 The Receiving Party may disclose the Information without violating its obligations under this Article 7, to the extent such disclosure is
required by law or by court, provided that, in the event the Receiving Party is required to disclose Information, the Receiving Party shall provide prompt written notice to the Disclosing Party of such requirement so that the Disclosing Party may
seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy. In the event no such protective order or other remedy is obtained, the Receiving Party agrees to disclose only that portion of Information it is legally required to disclose and to exercise all
reasonable efforts to obtain confidential treatment for such Information. 
  

 12 








  
 7.6 Within thirty
(30) days after the termination or expiration of this Agreement and upon the written request of the Disclosing Party, the Receiving Party shall return or destroy all such Information and copies thereof in its possession, except that each Party
may keep one copy of such Information in its Legal Department confidential files solely for archival purposes and this copy will not be distributed in any manner other than as provided in this Agreement, without the express prior written permission
of the Disclosing Party. 
 7.7 Each Party specifically recognizes that any breach by it of this Article 7 may cause irreparable injury
to the other Party and that actual damages may be difficult to ascertain, and in any event, may be inadequate. Accordingly (and without limiting the availability of legal or equitable, including injunctive, remedies under any other provisions of
this Agreement), each Party agrees that in the event of any such breach, notwithstanding the provisions of this Agreement, the other Party shall be entitled, by way of private litigation in the first instance, injunctive relief and such other legal
and equitable remedies as may be available, without an obligation to post bond. 
 7.8 Except as otherwise required by law or by any
securities exchange, regulatory or governmental body having jurisdiction over it, neither Party shall issue a press release or make any other public disclosure of the terms of this Agreement or regarding the manufacture of the Product without the
prior approval of the press release or public disclosure by the other Party. Each Party shall submit any such press release or public disclosure to the other Party which the other Party shall acknowledge in writing. 

7.9 This Article 7 shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement for a period of [...***...]. 

 

	8.	TERM AND TERMINATION

	8.3	Duties Upon Termination 

 Upon the
termination or expiration of this Agreement, neither Party shall have any obligation whatsoever hereunder, except (i) for obligations that by their terms may be or are to be performed after the termination or expiration of this Agreement, and
(ii) for any obligation or liability arising prior to such termination or expiration including but not limited to any remaining materials, work in process or finished goods.

	9.	MISCELLANEOUS 

  

	9.1	Force Majeure 

 Neither Party shall
be liable to the other for such Party’s failure to perform any provision of this Agreement if such failure or delay results from an act of God, war conditions, sabotage, governmental regulations or actions, embargo, fire, strike, failure of
supply, or any other cause beyond the affected Party’s reasonable control; provided, however, that such performance shall be excused only to the extent of and during such disability. Upon the occurrence of any such event that results or will
result in failure or delay to perform hereunder as described above, the Party whose performance is hereby prevented or delayed shall immediately give notice of such occurrence and the effect and/or anticipated effect of such occurrence on the
performance of such Party to the other Party. The Party whose performance is so affected shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize disruptions in performance and to resume full performance hereunder as soon as possible under the
circumstances. 
  

	9.2	Severability 

 If and to the extent
that any provision (or any part thereof) of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, such holding shall in no way affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the remainder of this Agreement. In the event any provision
of this Agreement shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the Parties shall negotiate in good faith to substitute a valid, legal and enforceable provision which, insofar as practical, implements the purposes hereof. 

 

	9.3	Assignment 

 Neither Party may
assign its interests, rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement to a third party without the prior written consent of the other Party, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. However, each Party may assign without the other Party’s
consent its interests, rights, duties or obligations under this Agreement to (i) a successor in interest to all or substantially all of the business to which this Agreement relates, whether by merger, sale of stock, sale of assets or

  

 14 








 
otherwise, or (ii) any Affiliate, provided that such third party or Affiliate can reasonably assume all the obligations of that Party under this Agreement.

same or any other term of this Agreement. 
  

	9.7	No Agency 

 Except as expressly
provided for herein, the Parties are not authorized to act as agents of one another as to any matter or make any representations to any third parties indicating or implying the existence or any such agency relationship.
