Information communicated orally will be considered Confidential Information if the information is identified as being Confidential Information at the time of disclosure.

If Discloser’s Confidential Information is required to be disclosed under any law or judicial order, Recipient will (to the extent permitted by law) give Discloser prompt notice thereof and use its commercially reasonable efforts to seek or cooperate with Discloser in seeking a protective order at Discloser’s request and expense. Each party acknowledges that any unauthorized disclosure or use of the Confidential Information may cause the other party irreparable harm and that such party will be entitled to seek injunctive relief in the event the other party does not fulfill its obligations under this Section.
