Further Covenants. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that:
Further Covenants. (i) Executive will keep in strict confidence, and will not, directly or indirectly, at any time during or after Executive's employment with the Company, disclose, furnish, disseminate, make available or, except in the course of performing Executive's duties of employment, use any trade secrets or confidential business and technical information of the Company or its customers or vendors, including without limitation as to when or how Executive may have acquired such information. Such confidential information shall include, without limitation, the Company's unique selling, manufacturing and servicing methods and business techniques, training, service and business manuals, promotional materials, training courses and other training and instructional materials, vendor and product information, customer and prospective customer lists, other customer and prospective customer information and other business information. Executive specifically acknowledges that all such confidential information, whether reduced to writing, maintained on any form of electronic media, or maintained in Executive's mind or memory and whether compiled by the Company, and/or Executive, derives independent economic value from not being readily known to or ascertainable by proper means by others who can obtain economic value from its disclosure or use, that reasonable efforts have been made by the Company to maintain the secrecy of such information, that such information is the sole property of the Company and that any retention and use of such information by Executive during Executive's employment with the Company (except in the course of performing Executive's duties and obligations to the Company) or after the termination of Executive's employment shall constitute a misappropriation of the Company's trade secrets.
Further Covenants. (i) The U.S. Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (“DTSA”) provides that an individual shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that (A) is made in confidence to a federal, state or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law; or (B) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal. In addition, the DTSA provides that an individual who files a lawsuit for retaliation by an employer for reporting a suspected violation of law may disclose the trade secret to the attorney of the individual and use the trade secret information in the court proceeding, if the individual files any document containing the trade secret under seal and does not disclose the trade secret, except pursuant to court order. Accordingly, the Parties have the right to disclose in confidence trade secrets to federal, state, and local government officials, or to an attorney, for the sole purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of law. The parties also have the right to disclose trade secrets in a document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, but only if the filing is made under seal and protected from public disclosure.
Further Covenants. In addition to the covenants made elsewhere in this Agreement, each Party hereby covenants to the other Party that, from the Effective Date until expiration or termination of this Agreement, it will not (a) knowingly take any action that conflicts with the rights under the Licensed Intellectual Property granted to the other Party under this Agreement or (b) knowingly fail to take any action that is reasonably necessary to avoid a conflict with the rights under the Licensed Intellectual Property granted to the other Party under this Agreement.
