Attachment B – Non-Disclosure Agreement

CONTRACTOR EMPLOYEE NON-DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT

It is understood that as part of my duties under Purchase No.____________, I may come in contact with Government procurement sensitive information or proprietary business information from other contractors (e.g., cost data). I, as a Government contractor, certify that I will not disclose, publish, divulge, release, or make known, in any manner or to any extent, to any individual other than an appropriate or authorized Government employee, the content of any procurement sensitive information provided during the course of my employment. I understand that for the purpose of this agreement, procurement sensitive information is to include procurement data, contract information, plans, strategies and any other information that may be deemed sensitive.

I further certify that I will use proprietary business information only for official purposes in the performance of Purchase No. _____________, and will disclose such information only to those individuals who have a specific need to know in performance of their official Government duties. I hereby agree not to disclose to others any contractual information, including, but not limited to, proprietary information, trade secrets, financial data, technical proposals which will be presented to me by the Contracting Officer or other Government Official. I agree that the described information is "inside information" and shall not be used for private gain by myself or another person, particularly one with whom I have family, business, or financial ties. For the purposes of this agreement, "inside information" means information obtained under Government authority which has not become part of the body of public information. I specifically will not disclose any such information to employees of my company or any other contractor employees who have not signed this agreement. I will take all reasonable precautions to prevent the unauthorized disclosure and use of such information.

I hereby certify that I have read the non-disclosure agreement described above and I am familiar with the directives and policies governing the disclosure of procurement sensitive information. I will fully and completely observe these directives and will not disclose such information to any unauthorized person, or use any information obtained for private use or gain at any time, including subsequent to the performance of duties under _______________.

These provisions are consistent with and do not supersede, conflict with, or otherwise alter the employee obligations, rights, or liabilities created by existing statute or Executive order relating to (1) classified information, (2) communications to Congress, (3) the reporting to an Inspector General or the Office of Special Counsel of a violation of any law, rule, or regulation, or mismanagement, a gross waste of funds, an abuse of authority, or a substantial and specific danger to public health or safety, or (4) any other whistleblower protection. The definitions, requirements, obligations, rights, sanctions, and liabilities created by controlling Executive orders and statutory provisions are incorporated into this agreement and are controlling.
