2) “Nonpublic Information" means any processes, images, designs, representations, details, drawings, or specifications about current and potential future United States currency designs and/or features or manufacturing, developmental and/or operational processes, and any information derived therefrom with such specificity as to identify the confidential and proprietary content within, that is disclosed or made available by the BEP to the Company.

3) The Company acknowledges:

a) That the BEP has no obligation to reveal the Nonpublic Information to the Company;

b) That revealing the Nonpublic Information to the Company is a privilege accorded by the BEP, not a right due the Company;

a) No Nonpublic Information revealed by the BEP to the Company shall be disclosed to any other person or entity without express written authorization by the BEP.

b) The Company will use the same degree of care as it uses to protect its own nonpublic information (e.g., trade secrets, confidential, proprietary information), but no less than a reasonable degree of care, to prevent the unauthorized use or disclosure of the Nonpublic Information. Upon discovery of any misuse or disclosure of Nonpublic Information, the Company will immediately notify the BEP in writing and will act to prevent any further misuse or disclosure.

c) Specifically, under no circumstances shall the Company communicate with any person or entity regarding the Nonpublic Information without express written authorization by the BEP.

Accordingly, Company agrees and acknowledges that any such violation or threatened violation shall cause irreparable injury to the BEP and that, in addition to any other remedies that may be available, in law, in equity or otherwise, the BEP shall be entitled to obtain injunctive relief against the threatened breach of this Agreement or the continuation of any such breach by the Company.
