+4. CONFIDENTIALITY.

+
|
|
|
46
|
+ (a) "Confidential Information" shall mean the Beta Software, all information regarding the Beta Software (including any trade secrets, know-how, inventions, techniques, processes, and algorithms embodied in the Beta Software), Documentation, Performance Data, any Updates, VMware products, product roadmaps, and other technical, business, financial and product development plans, forecasts and strategies, and other information provided by VMware to Licensee under this Agreement, whether disclosed orally, in writing, or by examination or inspection, other than information that Licensee can demonstrate (i) was already known to Licensee, other than under an obligation of confidentiality, at the time of disclosure; (ii) was generally available in the public domain at the time of disclosure to Licensee; (iii) became generally available in the public domain after disclosure other than through any act or omission of Licensee; (iv) was subsequently lawfully disclosed to Licensee by a third party without any obligation of confidentiality; or (v) was independently developed by Licensee without use of or reference to any information or materials disclosed by VMware or its suppliers. If Licensee wishes to disclose to VMware any information under this Agreement that Licensee considers proprietary or confidential to Licensee ("Licensee Information"), then Licensee agrees such disclose will be governed by a separate non-disclosure agreement ("NDA") by and between the parties. If Licensee is required to disclose Confidential Information by applicable law or court order, Licensee shall notify VMware of the required disclosure promptly in writing and shall cooperate with VMware in any lawful action to contest or limit the scope of the required disclosure. Licensee shall not use any Confidential Information for any purpose other than as expressly authorized under this Agreement. In no event shall Licensee use the Beta Software or any Confidential Information to develop, manufacture, market, sell, or distribute any product or service, including any VMware products except as expressly set forth in this Agreement. Licensee shall not disclose any Confidential Information to any third party. Without limiting the foregoing, Licensee shall use at least the same degree of care that it uses to prevent the disclosure of its own confidential information of like importance, but in no event less than reasonable care, to prevent the disclosure of such Confidential Information.
|
|
|
47
|
+
|
|
|
48

|
|
|
49
|
+
|
|
|
50
|
+ (i) Licensee shall limit dissemination of Highly Confidential Beta Software and related information concerning product features, future technologies and roadmaps only to Information Technology teams and/or software/solutions development teams of Licensee approved in writing by VMware, and only to individuals on such teams on a need-to-know basis and solely for purposes expressly authorized under this Agreement. For clarity and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Licensee shall not disseminate any Highly Confidential Beta Software to Licensee's sales and marketing field organizations. Licensee will assign an employee who will be primarily responsible for ensuring Licensee's full compliance with the terms described in this Section 4(b) herein.
|
|
|
51
|
+
|
|
|
52
|
+ (ii) Improper Disclosure of Highly Confidential Beta Software. Licensee acknowledges that damages due to Licensee's improper disclosure of Highly Confidential Beta Software or related information concerning product features, future technologies and roadmaps may be irreparable and that monetary damages would be inadequate to compensate VMware for any breach of this Agreement. In the event that VMware reasonably believes that Licensee has disseminated Highly Confidential Beta Software or related information concerning product features, future technologies and roadmaps to an unauthorized party, Licensee will be immediately removed from VMware's Beta Software program and will not be permitted to participate in any VMware Beta Software program in the future. Additionally, all rights and licenses granted to Licensee under this Agreement shall immediately terminate in accordance with Section 3 herein (Term and Termination), and (b) in addition to all other remedies available in law or otherwise, VMware is entitled to seek equitable relief, including injunction and preliminary injunction against the threatened breach of this Agreement or the continuation of any such breach.
