where Sponsor agrees in writing to its use or disclosure.  TKL agrees to return Confidential Information and all copies thereof at the conclusion of each Study or at an earlier date at the request of the Sponsor, except with respect to raw research Study data where original data will be retained in accordance with United States Food and Drug Administration regulation (or as otherwise required by law).  TKL agrees not to publish, disclose or otherwise reveal to others for a period of ten (10) years after termination or expiration of this Agreement without the permission of the Sponsor any proprietary or Confidential Information unless the information is (a) through no fault of TKL, subsequently published or disclosed publicly by a third party who is not restricted from making such disclosure by any direct or indirect obligation of confidentiality to Sponsor, (b) is required to be disclosed by under a facially valid court order, warrant or subpoena, or litigation request, but only (i) to the extent of such court order, warrant, subpoena, or litigation request and (ii) if TKL first gives Sponsor immediate oral and written notice of the court order, warrant, subpoena, or litigation request to permit Sponsor to take appropriate legal action in the circumstances.

TKL shall hold the Extended Protection Confidential Information in strict confidence and shall not disclose any Extended Protection Confidential Information to any person or entity; provided that Extended Protection Confidential Information may be disclosed to officers, employees, or agents of TKL (collectively, the “Representatives”) who (a) have a need to know the Extended Protection Confidential Information in connection with performance of the Services and only then to the extent required for the Representatives to perform their obligations in connection with the Services, (b) have been informed by TKL of the confidential nature of the Extended Protection Confidential Information and of the confidentiality undertakings of TKL contained herein.  TKL represents and warrants that each Representative has signed a confidentiality agreement containing clauses as least as restrictive as the confidentiality obligations contained herein.  TKL shall use commercially reasonable efforts to limit the number of Representatives that have access to the Extended Protection Confidential Information.  Upon written request by Sponsor, TKL shall provide Sponsor with a list of the names and titles of all Representatives that received access to the Extended Protection Confidential Information.  TKL shall be responsible for any breach of this provision by its Representatives.  TKL shall promptly notify Sponsor of any unauthorized release of, access to or use of Extended Protection Confidential Information.  TKL covenants that it shall maintain security practices designed to meet generally accepted industry practice and are designed to ensure the security, confidentiality and integrity of the Extended Protection Confidential Information.
