ARTICLE 6 REMEDIES 6.01 Specific Performance. Each party's obligations under this Agreement are unique. If any party should default in its obligations under this Agreement, the parties each acknowledge that it would be extremely impracticable to measure the resulting damages. Accordingly, the non-defaulting party, in addition to any other available rights or remedies, may sue in equity for specific performance, and the parties each expressly waive the defense that a remedy in damages will be adequate. 6.02 Costs. If any legal action or any arbitration or other proceeding is brought for the enforcement of this Agreement or because of an alleged dispute, breach, default, or misrepresentation in connection with any of the provisions of this agreement, the successful or prevailing party or parties shall be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys' fees and other costs incurred in that action or proceeding, in addition to any other relief to which it or they may be entitled. ARTICLE 7 ARBITRATION In the event a dispute arises with respect to the interpretation or effect of this Agreement or concerning the rights or obligations of the parties to this Agreement, the parties agree to negotiate in good faith with reasonable diligence in an effort to resolve the dispute in a mutually acceptable manner. Failing to reach a resolution of this Agreement, either party shall have the right to submit the dispute to be settled by arbitration under the Commercial Rules of Arbitration of the American Arbitration Association. The parties agree that, unless the parties mutually agree to the contrary such arbitration shall be conducted in Hillsborough, Florida. The cost of arbitration shall be borne by the party against whom the award is rendered or, if in the interest of fairness, as allocated in accordance with the judgment of the arbitrators. All awards in arbitration made in good faith and not infected with fraud or other misconduct shall be final and binding. The arbitrators shall be selected as follows: one by SWME, one by UTEK and a third by the two selected arbitrators. The third arbitrator shall be the chairman of the panel.

Each of the parties acknowledge that it will have access to certain Confidential Information (as defined below) of the other parties, and their subsidiaries, and agrees that it will not use for its own account or the account of any third party (except as required by law), or disclose to any third party (except to its attorney's, accountants and other advisors, and except as otherwise required by law), any of such other parties' Confidential Information, and will take reasonable precautions to protect the confidentiality of such information. "Confidential Information" includes the contents and existence of this Agreement and the Schedules and Exhibits hereto, and such parties' trade secrets, business plans, financial information and any other information relating to such other parties or their subsidiaries and affiliates, which is not generally known to the public.

Information is not Confidential Information if it (a) is known to the receiving party prior to receipt from the disclosing party directly or indirectly from a source other than one having an obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing party; (b) becomes known to the receiving party directly or indirectly from a source other than the disclosing party or a person having an obligation of confidentiality to the disclosing party; (c) becomes publicly known or otherwise ceases to be secret or confidential, except through a breach of this Agreement; or (d) is independently developed by the receiving party.
