(a)  “Confidential Information” means IGT’s confidential and proprietary information, including trade secrets related to the use of transparent displays; and PureDepth’s confidential and proprietary information, including trade secrets related to multi-layer displays and manufacturing methods for multi-layer display monitors.  Confidential Information may further include but is not limited to the following: contractual provisions, discoveries, ideas, concepts, know-how, techniques, designs, specifications, drawings, blueprints, diagrams, flowcharts, data, costs, prices, customer lists, marketing plans, goals, sales figures, revenues and profits and shall expressly include the nature and existence of this Agreement as well as any information directly derived from the Confidential Information.

(c)  Each party, as the Disclosing Party, may orally communicate Confidential Information to the other party as the Receiving Party.  In the event such oral communication of Confidential Information is made, the Disclosing Party shall draft a document for the purpose of reducing such Confidential Information to writing and identifying the date, time and individual representatives privy to the disclosure.  The document shall be marked “Confidential”, “Proprietary”, or such other similar language, and delivered to the Receiving Party within ten (10) business days of the disclosure.  Disclosures of Confidential Information not reduced to writing shall be deemed Confidential Information if delivered under circumstances that reasonably suggest the confidential nature of the infomation.
 
(d)  The parties shall provide the respective standard of care used by each party in the protection of their own Confidential Information (but in no event less than a reasonable standard of care), and not disclose to any third party any Confidential Information.  Confidential Information shall not include the following:

(iii)   information that was received by the Receiving Party from a third party having no legal prohibition preventing the third party from disclosing the information; or
 
(iv)   information that is independently developed by the Receiving Party without any knowledge or use of the Confidential Information communicated under this Agreement.
 
(e)  Confidential Information may be disclosed by the Receiving Party to a third party if the disclosure is in response to a valid subpoena or order by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a governmental body, provided that the Receiving Party so required to disclose the Confidential Information advises the Disclosing Party promptly upon becoming aware that the Confidential Information is subject to disclosure, does nothing to prevent the Disclosing Party from intervening in any proceeding to protect its rights under this Agreement, uses commercially reasonable efforts to resist disclosure, and if unsuccessful, to obtain an appropriate protective order.  Disclosures made under these circumstances shall be made only to the named authority requiring the disclosure.
 
(f)  The parties shall not, without the written permission of the other, use the Confidential Information of the other for any reason other than for the performance of this Agreement.  Should any portion of the Confidential Information reach the public domain, the Parties shall not add to the public domain through their knowledge of the Confidential Information and shall continue to maintain that portion of the Confidential Information not yet in the public domain as confidential.  The Receiving Party shall not reverse engineer or disassemble any Confidential Information nor any products related to the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party.
 
(g)  The parties reserve unto themselves all rights under their respective Confidential Information as their absolute property and under patent, trademark, trade secret and copyright laws relating to the Confidential Information they own, including the rights to file patent and trademark applications, obtain patents and trademarks, and file and obtain copyright registrations relating to their Confidential Information.  Both parties agree and understand that each party shall have all the rights and remedies available to it under patent, trademark, trade secret and copyright law.

(j)  The parties shall return to the other within a reasonable period of time all materials containing Confidential information and any other materials provided under this Agreement, including but not limited to written information, copies, reports, papers, surveys, letters, lists, drawings, computer printouts, blueprints, manuals, software and firmware, that were delivered to the party, upon request by the other or upon expiration or termination of this Agreement.  In the event materials to be returned to the Disclosing Party include confidential information of the Receiving Party, the Receiving Party may optionally elect to have all such materials destroyed and to certify, in writing to the Disclosing Party, that all such materials were destroyed.

(k)  Receiving Party’s obligation under this Section with respect to any particular Confidential Information, shall survive the expiration or termination of this Agreement and violations of such shall remain actionable.
 
(l)  Both parties acknowledge that due to the unique nature of the Confidential Information, there can be no adequate remedy at law for any breach of its obligations hereunder, that any such breach may allow the Receiving Party or third parties to unfairly compete with the Disclosing Party resulting in irreparable harm to the Disclosing Party, and therefore, that upon any breach or any threat thereof, the Disclosing Party shall be entitled to seek and obtain injunctive relief in addition to whatever remedies it might have at law or equity.
