Article 5. [Reserved].

Article 6. Confidential Information.

6.1 Treatment of Confidential Information. Licensee shall maintain the Confidential Information in confidence, using appropriate access control and physical security measures (including without limitation a “vault” system as currently utilized by Alcoa Inc.) to safeguard the confidentiality thereof and shall not disclose, divulge or otherwise communicate such Confidential Information to others, except to exploit the Confidential Information for its own internal use, or use it for any purpose, except pursuant to, and in order to carry out, the terms and objectives of this Agreement, and hereby agrees to exercise commercially reasonable precautions to prevent and restrain the unauthorized disclosure of such Confidential Information by any of its directors, officers, employees, consultants, subcontractors, sublicensees, or agents. Prior to disclosure of Confidential Information to Licensee’s directors, officers, employees, consultants, subcontractors, sublicensees, or agents, Licensee will enter into written agreements with such parties that contain restrictions on the disclosure of confidential information that are at least as restrictive as the terms and conditions of this Agreement. With respect to Know-How and Trade Secrets, the obligations of confidentiality and nondisclosure imposed on the Licensee by this Agreement shall continue until the occurrence of one of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2. With respect to other forms of Confidential Information, the obligations of confidentiality and nondisclosure imposed on the Licensee by this Agreement shall extend for the longer of (a) two (2) years from the date of termination of this Agreement or (b) until the occurrence of one of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2. Licensor and Licensee also agree to maintain the terms and conditions of the Agreement in confidence in accordance with this Section 6.1 for so long as this Agreement remains in full force and effect.

6.2 Release of Obligations. The obligations of Licensee, and of its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, with respect to any Confidential Information disclosed thereto by Licensor pursuant to this Agreement shall cease if Licensee can establish to the satisfaction of Licensor or, failing agreement by Licensor, of a court of competent jurisdiction (provided it is a court of last resort, the Parties have agreed to abandon all appeals or the time for filing an appeal has expired) that the Confidential Information (a) was legally known to or in the possession of Licensee, without obligation of confidentiality or non-use, at the time of disclosure to Licensee by Licensor; (b) legally is or has become part of the public domain through no fault of Licensee; (c) has been disclosed to Licensee by a third party on a non-confidential basis and

without breaching any contractual, confidential or fiduciary obligation to Licensor or any law; or (d) is required to be disclosed pursuant to law or valid court order, provided that Licensee promptly notifies Licensor of such required disclosure and reasonably cooperates in any action by Licensor to limit the scope of the required disclosure. A general disclosure in the public domain, or possession by Licensee of general information, will not cause more specific (but related) information to be excluded as Confidential Information under one of the above exceptions; similarly, a combination of several pieces of information, where each piece of information individually is in the public domain or in the possession of Licensee, will not operate to exempt the combination as Confidential Information unless the combination itself is in the public domain.

6.3 Ownership and Return of Confidential Information. All Confidential Information disclosed pursuant to this Agreement, together with all copies, reproductions, summaries, evaluations, analyses, notes, reports or other records created by Licensee in respect of the Confidential Information and all other information, know-how, data and materials generated by the use of the Confidential Information shall be treated as Confidential Information of Licensor, shall be the sole and exclusive property of Licensor and shall be returned to Licensor by Licensee forthwith upon written request. Notwithstanding the above, one copy of such material may be retained in the legal files of Licensee solely for compliance purposes.

Article 7. Acknowledgement and Obligations.

Licensee shall promptly report in writing to Licensor during the term of this Agreement any: (a) known infringement or suspected infringement of any of the Licensor Patent Rights; or (b) unauthorized use or misappropriation of the Know-How and Trade Secrets by a third party of which it becomes aware, and shall provide Licensor with all available evidence supporting the infringement, suspected infringement or unauthorized use or misappropriation. Licensor shall have the sole and exclusive right to bring an infringement action or proceeding against any infringing third party, and, in the event that Licensor brings such an action or proceeding, Licensee shall cooperate and provide full information and reasonable assistance to Licensor and its counsel, at Licensor’s expense, in connection with any such action or proceeding.

After receipt by Licensor of a notice of commencement of any action involving the subject matter of the foregoing indemnity provisions under Section 9.1, Licensor will promptly notify Licensee of the commencement thereof. Failure by Licensor to so notify Licensee of any such claim shall not relieve Licensee of any such duty so to indemnify.

Notwithstanding anything contained in the foregoing sentence to the contrary, Licensee (a) shall not be entitled to have sole control over any third party claim that seeks an order, injunction or other equitable relief against Licensor; or any action that is the subject of such third party indemnification claim in which both Licensee and Licensor are named as parties and either Licensor or Licensee determines with advice of counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it that are different from or additional to those available to the other party or that a conflict of interest between such parties may exist in respect of such action, and (b) shall obtain the prior written approval of Licensor before ceasing to defend against any third party indemnification claim or entering into any settlement, adjustment or compromise of such claim involving injunctive or similar equitable relief being asserted against Licensor.
