Article 10. Confidentiality

10.1. The Parties will treat as confidential the information they provide to each other before, during or after the performance of the EULA if this information has been marked as confidential or if the receiving Party knows or should reasonably assume that this information was intended to be confidential. The Parties also impose this obligation on their employees and on the third parties engaged by them for the performance of the EULA. These provisions continue to apply after the EULA ends for any reason whatsoever and for as long as the disclosing Party has the right to invoke the confidential nature of the information.

10.2. Each Party will use the same degree of care in protecting the confidential information of the disclosing Party as it uses in protecting its own confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable care.

10.3. This article 10 will not apply to any information which:

b. was within the receiving Party's possession prior to its disclosure to it by or on behalf of the disclosing Party;
c. becomes available to the receiving Party on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the disclosing Party not under obligation to keep such information confidential; or
d. is developed independently by the receiving Party.

10.4. In the event that a receiving Party becomes legally compelled to disclose any confidential information provided pursuant to the EULA, such receiving Party will provide the disclosing Party with prompt written notice so that such disclosing Party may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive compliance with the confidentiality provisions of the EULA. Any confidential information provided hereunder will remain the exclusive property of the disclosing Party.

10.5. Promptly after the expiration or termination of the EULA for any reason, each receiving Party will deliver to each disclosing Party all originals and copies of any material in any form containing or representing the confidential information in its possession or will destroy the same at the request of the disclosing Party relative to such confidential information.

Article 11. Term and termination

b. if the other Party is declared bankrupt; or
c. if the other Party’s company is dissolved or terminated.

11.3. Without prejudice to any other rights and remedies hereunder, GripMatix shall be entitled to terminate the EULA if End User commits a breach of any of its obligations under this EULA and such breach is irremediable or – if such breach is remediable – End User fails to remedy that breach within a period of thirty (30) days after being notified in writing to do so.

11.4. The termination of this EULA shall not relieve either Party of the obligation to pay any fees accrued or payable to the other Party prior to the effective date of termination.

Article 12. Changes to the EULA

12.1. GripMatix reserves the right to change or supplement the EULA at any time, if and insofar the amendment is necessary because of (changing) laws and regulations or if it concerns a change of minor importance or in the situation that GripMatix implements a change which must be implemented. In these events, End User is not entitled to terminate the EULA. In all other respects, variations to the EULA shall only be effective if it has been agreed in writing and signed by both Parties.

12.2. If any provision, or part of a provision, of the EULA is found by any court or authority of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable, that provision or part-provision shall be deemed not to form part of the EULA, and the legality, validity or enforceability of the remainder of the provisions of the EULA shall not be affected, unless otherwise required by operation of applicable law. The Parties shall use all reasonable endeavours to agree within a reasonable time upon any lawful and reasonable variations to the EULA which may be necessary in order to achieve, to the greatest extent possible, the same commercial effect as would have been achieved by the provision, or part-provision, in question.

Article 13. Miscellaneous
