If the Seller becomes insolvent, files a petition for bankruptcy or commences, or has commenced against it, proceedings relating to bankruptcy, receivership, reorganization or assignment for the benefit of creditors, then the Buyer may terminate the Order upon written notice to Seller. If Buyer terminates the Order for any reason, Seller’s sole and exclusive remedy is payment for the Goods received and accepted by Buyer prior to the termination.

Waiver

No waiver by any party of any of the provisions of the Order shall be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in the Order, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power or privilege arising from the Order shall operate or be construed as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

Confidential Information and Highly Sensitive Information

Seller shall keep confidential all designs, processes, drawings, specifications, reports, data and other technical or proprietary information disclosed by Buyer to Seller in connection with the Order (“Buyer Confidential Information”).  Unless otherwise provided herein or authorized by Buyer in writing, Seller shall use such information and items only in the performance of the Order.  Seller will make Buyer Confidential Information available only to those of its employees, consultants and contractors having a need to know and solely for the purpose of the Order, provided that the Seller has taken adequate steps to bind the employee and other recipients with respect to the use and protection of the Buyer Confidential Information under terms and conditions at least as restrictive as those set forth herein or any applicable non-disclosure agreement.  Seller shall be responsible for any breach of the terms of this section by it, as well as any of its employees, consultants, contractors, and third parties to which it provides Buyer Confidential Information.  Upon completion or termination of the Order, Seller shall return all written materials and other items furnished by Buyer to Seller under the Order or make such other disposition thereof as may be directed or approved by Buyer.

If a separate non-disclosure agreement exists between the parties, any information exchanged between the parties shall be governed by the terms of such agreement.  If no such agreement exists, information disclosed in any manner or at any time by Seller to Buyer shall not be deemed secret or confidential and Seller shall have no rights against Buyer with respect thereto except such rights as may exist under patent laws.

“Highly Sensitive Information” means Buyer’s trade secrets, designs, concepts, algorithms, know-how, show-how, processes and techniques. Seller agrees that the Highly Sensitive Information is proprietary to Buyer and/or its suppliers, as applicable. Seller acknowledges that the Highly Sensitive Information (a) has been developed by Buyer and/or its suppliers, as applicable; (b) is secret, confidential and not generally known to the public; and (c) is the product of Buyer’s own expenditure of time, effort, money and creative skills.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Derivatives” means (i) for copyrightable or copyrighted material, any translation, abridgment, revision or other form in which an existing work has been recast, transformed or adapted; (ii) for patentable or patented material, any improvement thereon; and (iii) for material protected by trade secret, any new material derived from the existing trade secret material, including new material that may be protected under copyright, patent and/or trade secret laws. Seller acknowledges and agrees that all Derivatives shall be subject to the same terms and conditions of this Agreement as those applicable to Highly Sensitive Information. Seller acknowledges that it has no right to disclose or distribute the Highly Sensitive Information to any third party and agrees that distribution, copying, duplicating or otherwise reproducing all or any part of the Highly Sensitive Information except as provided by this Agreement will be considered a material breach of this Agreement.

Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Highly Sensitive Information is furnished to Seller on a confidential and secret basis for Seller’s sole internal use, as required for fulfilling the Order, and not for transfer, sale or sublicense. Seller agrees to take all necessary steps to prevent unauthorized disclosure of the Highly Sensitive Information, including but not limited to the following:

(f)     Seller shall not grant any Seller employees Access to the Highly Confidential Information until he or she has been individually authorized in by Buyer. All such Employees shall comply with the provisions of this Agreement, including the requirement to sign a confidentiality agreement specific to the Highly Sensitive Information.

(g)     Seller agrees to restrict Access to the Highly Sensitive Information solely to those of its Employees who have a need to know as required for the Purpose and each of whom have been individually authorized in advance in writing by Buyer to have such Access.

As used in this Section 23, “Access” means having the capability to view, copy, display, print, transfer or otherwise manipulate or have exposure to any form of the Highly Sensitive Information. Seller agrees to maintain a log which contains a list of all Seller Employees who at any time actually have Access to the Highly Sensitive Information, or any portion of the Highly Sensitive Information. Seller agrees to comply with the requests of Buyer, from time to time, to provide Buyer with copies of the current version of such log or updates thereto for sections not previously reviewed by Buyer.

(g)     Seller shall require each of its Employee, prior to such Employee’s Access to the Highly Sensitive Information, to sign a confidentiality agreement in form and substance approved by Buyer in Buyer’s sole discretion specifically pertaining to protection of the Highly Sensitive Information.  Seller promptly shall provide to Buyer a duplicate original, with inked signatures, of each such signed agreement.

Seller understands and agrees that the foregoing restrictions on Highly Sensitive Information are in addition to, and not in limitation of, the other restrictions on Confidential Information of Buyer set forth in these Terms.

Force Majeure Events include, but are not limited to, acts of God or the public enemy, government restrictions, floods, fire, earthquakes, explosion, epidemic, war, invasion, hostilities, terrorist acts, riots, strike, embargoes or industrial disturbances. Seller’s economic hardship or changes in market conditions are not considered Force Majeure Events.
