(iv) which has been, is or becomes independently developed by such Stockholder or on its behalf without a breach of Section 4.12(a); or
(v) which has been provided on a non-confidential basis to such Stockholder or any of its officers, employees, representatives, consultants or advisors by a third party who obtained such information other than from any such Person or other than as a result of a breach of Section 4.12(a); provided that, to such Stockholders knowledge, such other source is not bound by a confidentiality obligation to the Company.
