During and after the term of this Agreement, Recipient shall hold in confidence and protect, and shall not use (except as expressly authorized by this Agreement) or disclose, Confidential Information, unless such Confidential Information becomes publicly known without breach of this Agreement by Recipient.

Recipient acknowledges and agrees that due to the unique nature of Company's Confidential Information, there can be no adequate remedy at law for any breach of Recipient’s obligations hereunder, that any such breach may allow Recipient or third parties to unfairly compete with Company resulting in irreparable harm to Company, and therefore, that upon any such breach or threat thereof, Company shall be entitled to injunctions and other appropriate equitable relief in addition to whatever remedies it may have at law.

2. License. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, (and any limitations and restrictions set forth herein), Synadia grants Customer a limited, worldwide, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, nonexclusive, royalty-free, fully paid up license to use the Evaluation Item during the applicable Agreement term, solely for Recipient’s internal evaluation purposes during the term of this Agreement. Recipient shall not reverse assemble, reverse compile or reverse engineer the Evaluation Item, or otherwise attempt to discover any source code or underlying ideas of the Evaluation Item. Recipient acknowledges and agrees that the Evaluation Item may incorporate functions that will inhibit Recipient from exceeding the scope of this license.

Any surveys, usage reports, developments, recommendations or modifications made by Company or Recipient relating to the Evaluation Item (“Feedback”), whether or not influenced or suggested by Recipient, are the sole property of Company.

All Feedback shall be Company’s sole property and Confidential Information.
