Confidential Information may be disclosed by Consultant only to the extent required to be disclosed by law, government agency, securities exchange, or court order, provided that Consultant provides Neumora, as promptly as possible, with prior written notice of any such disclosure (unless such notice is prohibited by such law) so that Neumora may seek a protective order at its own expense. Consultant will use reasonable efforts to cooperate in connection with Neumora’s efforts to obtain any such order or other remedy. Consultant will disclose only that portion of the Confidential Information that it is legally required to disclose, based on advice of counsel.
