13. Confidentiality.

13.1 Confidentiality Obligations. In order to protect both Parties’ Proprietary Information and Technology the Parties agree that each Party shall use the same degree of care, but no less than a reasonable degree of care, as such Party uses with respect to its own similar information to protect the Proprietary Information and Technology of the other Party and to prevent any use of Proprietary Information and Technology other than for the purposes of this Agreement. Jabil also specifically agrees not to reveal or disclose Company’s Proprietary Information and Technology to another customer (or its agent) of Jabil’s. This Section 13 imposes no obligation upon a Party with respect to Proprietary Information and Technology which (a) was known to such Party before receipt from the disclosing Party; (b) is or becomes publicly available through no fault of the receiving Party; (c) is rightfully received by the receiving Party from a third party without a duty of confidentiality; (d) is disclosed by the disclosing Party to a third party without imposing a duty of confidentiality on the third party; (c) is independently developed by the receiving Party without a breach of this Agreement except to the extent developed by Jabil for Company; or (f) is disclosed by the receiving Party with the disclosing Party’s prior written approval. If a Party is required by a government body or court of law to disclose Proprietary Information and Technology, this Agreement or any portion hereof, then such Party agrees to give the other Party reasonable advance notice so that the other Party may seek a protective order or otherwise contest the disclosure.

13.2 Employees, Agents and Representatives. Each Party represents and warrants to the other that it has adopted policies and procedures with respect to the receipt and disclosure of confidential or proprietary information, such as the Proprietary Information and Technology with its employees, agents and representatives. Each Party represents and warrants to the other Party that it will cause each of its employees, agents and representatives to maintain and protect the confidentiality of the other Party’s Proprietary Information and Technology.

13.3 Term and Enforcement. The confidentiality obligation set forth in this Agreement shall be observed during the term of the Agreement and for a period of three (3) years following the termination of this Agreement. Each Party acknowledges that a breach of any of the terms of this Section 13 may cause the non-breaching Party irreparable damage, for which the award of damages would not be adequate compensation. Consequently, the non-breaching Party may institute an action to enjoin the breaching Party from any and all acts in violation of those provisions, which remedy shall be cumulative and not exclusive, and shall be in addition to any other relief to which the non-breaching Party may be entitled at law or in equity. Such remedy shall not be subject to the arbitration provisions set forth in Section 21.13.

13.4 Return of Proprietary Information and Technology. Upon the termination, cancellation or expiration of this Agreement all Proprietary Information and Technology shall, upon written request, be returned to the respective Party, or at the respective Party’s discretion, destroyed by the receiving Party.

Jabil shall retain all right, title and ownership to any Jabil Existing Intellectual Property that is incorporated into any Product that is prepared as part of the Manufacturing Services or as part of any other work provided pursuant to this Agreement or any other related agreement executed by the Parties.

Upon full payment of all monies due and owing under this Agreement and all other monies due and owing to Jabil pursuant to any other related agreement executed by the Parties, Jabil will grant to Company a worldwide, non-exclusive, fully paid-up, royalty free right and license to the Jabil Existing Intellectual Property only insofar as is required for Company to use, sell or distribute the Product provided as part of the Manufacturing Services performed by Jabil pursuant to this Agreement; provided however, that no license to manufacturing processes and/or manufacturing process improvements shall be granted hereunder.

14.2 Jabil Created Intellectual Property. Jabil shall initially retain all right, title and ownership to any Jabil Created Intellectual Property that is incorporated into any Product that is prepared as part of the Manufacturing Services or into any other work provided pursuant to this Agreement or any other related agreement executed by the Parties.

Upon full payment of all monies due and owing under this Agreement and all other monies due and owing to Jabil pursuant to any other related agreement executed by the Parties, however, Jabil will assign to Company all right, title and interest in and to the Jabil Created Intellectual Property. Company hereby grants to Jabil a worldwide, non-exclusive, fully paid-up, royalty-free right and license in and to the Jabil Created Intellectual Property but in no event shall such license permit Jabil to use the Jabil created intellectual property that is unique to the product to make, have made, use, sell or distribute or a materially similar product for a period of two year after termination, cancellation and/or expiration of this agreement.

14.3 Company Intellectual Property. Jabil shall not use Company’s Intellectual Property to manufacture, have manufactured or enable others to manufacture or have manufactured any iterations of the Product manufactured by Jabil hereunder for Company once this Agreement

is terminated, cancelled or once it has expired.

Jabil may employ counsel, at its own expense to assist Jabil with respect to any such claims, provided that if such counsel is necessary because of a conflict of interest with Company or its counsel or because Company does not assume control of the defense of a claim for which Company is obligated to indemnify Jabil hereunder, Company shall bear such expense. Company shall not enter into any settlement that affects Jabil’s rights or interests without Jabil’s prior written approval, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. Jabil will provide such assistance and cooperation as is reasonably requested by Company or its counsel in connection with such indemnified claims.

Nothing contained herein shall be construed to imply a partnership or joint venture relationship between the Parties.

18. Insurance. Each Party will keep its business and properties insured at all times against such risks for which insurance is usually maintained by reasonably prudent Persons engaged in a similar business (including insurance for hazards and insurance against liability on account of

damage to Persons or property and insurance under all applicable worker’s compensation laws). The insurance maintained shall be in such monies and with such limits and deductibles usually car^ried by Persons engaged in the same or a similar business.

19. Publicity. Without the consent of the other Party, neither Party shall refer to this Agreement in any publicity or advertising or disclose to any third party any of the terms of this Agreement.

A Party may disclose the existence of this Agreement and its terms to its attorneys and accountants, suppliers, customers and others only to the extent necessary to perform its obligations and enforce its rights hereunder.

20. Force Majeure. Neither Party will be liable for any delay in performing, or for failing to perform, its obligations under this Agreement (other than the payment of money) resulting from any cause beyond its reasonable control including, acts of God; blackouts; power failures; inclement weather; fire; explosions; floods; hurricanes; typhoons; tornadoes; earthquakes; epidemics; strikes; work stoppages; labor, component or material shortages; slow-downs; industrial disputes; sabotage; accidents; destruction of production facilities; riots or civil disturbances; acts of government or governmental agencies, including changes in law or regulations that materially and adversely impact the Party, and U.S. Government priority orders or contracts; provided that the Party affected by such event promptly notifies (in no event more than ten (10) business days of discovery of the event) the other Party of the event.
