			Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the foregoing, the obligations of confidentiality and non-use with respect to any such Confidential Information that is a Trade Secret shall survive beyond such [**] period to the extent such Confidential Information remains protected as a trade secret under Applicable Law; however, for purposes of Sections 4.5 and 11.3, prior to a Party disclosing a Trade Secret of the other Party to a Third Party, the Party must expressly contractually bind the Third Party to obligations to keep the Trade Secret confidential to the extent protected as a trade secret under Applicable Law.  Notwithstanding the prior sentence, in the event that a Party is required by Applicable Law or legal process to disclose a Trade Secret of the other Party, it will, except where impracticable or not legally permitted, give reasonable advance notice to the other Party of such disclosure and use not less than the same efforts to secure confidential treatment of such information as it would to protect its own Trade Secret from disclosure.

The Agreement, as supplemented and modified by this Amendment, together with the exhibits thereto, contains the entire understanding of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, oral or written, with respect to such matters, which the parties acknowledge have been merged into the Agreement.

			9.         Execution in Counterparts.  This Amendment may be executed in two (2) or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.
