The receiving party may disclose the Confidential Information only to those of its affiliates and Subcontractors and their respective employees, contractors, and advisors who have a need to know and who are under an obligation of confidentiality at least as restrictive as that contained herein.  Each such recipient of Confidential Information will be advised of its obligations under this Agreement.  Confidential Information received may be used only to fulfill the purposes of the Agreement.  Customer Confidential Information may be used only to fulfill the purposes of this Agreement, or to communicate with or provide goods and services to the Customer under this Agreement.  If the receiving party or any of its affiliates or subcontractors is requested or required by subpoena, court order, or similar process or applicable governmental regulation to disclose any Confidential Information, the receiving party agrees to provide the disclosing party with prompt notice of such request or obligation so that disclosing party may seek an appropriate protective order or procedure if it elects to do so.
