User agrees (a) to keep all Confidential Information in strict confidence and not to disclose or reveal any Confidential Information to any person (other than User’s Representatives who (i) are actively and directly involved in providing or receiving products or services under this Agreement, and (ii) have a need to know the Confidential Information), and (b) not to use Confidential Information for any purpose other than in connection with fulfilling obligations or exercising rights under this Agreement. User shall treat all Confidential Information by using the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, as it accords its own confidential information. User agrees to cause its Representatives who receive Confidential Information to observe the requirements applicable to User pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such information, including, but not limited to, the restrictions on use and disclosure of such information contained in this Section 9.

Notwithstanding the above, the obligations set forth in this Section 9 shall not apply to any information that: was in the public domain at the time it was disclosed or has entered the public domain through no fault of User or any of its Representatives; was known to User free of any obligation of confidentiality before or after the time it was communicated to the User; is independently developed by User without use of or reference to any Confidential Information; is disclosed with the prior written approval of Edera; is or becomes available to the User on a non-confidential basis from a person other than Edera or any of its Representatives who is not known by User to be otherwise bound by a confidentiality agreement with Edera or any of its Representatives or to be under an obligation to Edera or any of its Representatives not to transmit the information to User; or is disclosed pursuant to an order or requirement of a court, administrative agency or other governmental body; provided however, that User shall provide prompt written notice of such court order or requirement to Edera to enable Edera to seek a protective order or otherwise prevent or restrict such disclosure, and shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Edera (at the Disclosing Party’s expense) to obtain such protective order or other appropriate remedy. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or Edera waives compliance in whole or in part, with the terms of this Agreement, User and its Representatives shall use reasonable efforts to disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that is legally required to be disclosed or is the subject of such waiver, and to ensure that all Confidential Information that is so disclosed shall be accorded confidential treatment.

Any materials or documents which have been furnished to User from Edera shall be promptly returned or destroyed, at the option of Edera, by User, within ten (10) days after (a) this Agreement has expired or has been terminated; or (b) a written notice is made by Edera requesting such return or destruction. Upon such request, all copies, reproductions, compilations, summaries, analyses, or other documents containing or reflecting User’s or its Representatives’ use of the Confidential Information will be destroyed by User, and such destruction confirmed to Edera in writing. The terms and obligations pertaining to confidentiality in this Agreement shall survive and remain in full force and effect for a period of five (5) years from the termination or expiration of this Agreement, unless Edera expressly agrees in writing to release all or part of its Confidential Information from the restrictions imposed by this Agreement before such period has elapsed.
