1.2 Exclusions. Confidential Information does not include any information that:
- (a)is or becomes publicly available without breach of this Agreement by the Receiving Party;
- (b)was already in the Receiving Party’s lawful possession prior to disclosure without restriction;
- (c)is independently developed by the Receiving Party without reference to or reliance upon the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information; or
- (d)is lawfully obtained from a third party without restriction or breach of confidentiality duties.
1.3 Compelled Disclosure. If the Receiving Party is legally required by court order, subpoena, or law to disclose any Confidential Information, it shall provide prompt written notice to the Disclosing Party (where legally permissible) to allow the Disclosing Party to seek a protective order.

2.1 Purpose. The Receiving Party shall use the Disclosing Party’s Confidential Information solely to evaluate or pursue a potential business relationship between the Parties (the “Purpose”).
