Confidentiality. Each party to this Agreement agrees that it shall treat as confidential, and not disclose to any third party, any information (including the Sub-Adviser’s investment advice) provided to it (“Receiving Party”) by the other party (“Disclosing Party”) that is marked “Confidential” or that reasonably should be known to be confidential, including the investment activities or holdings of the Portfolio(s) (collectively, “Confidential Information”) except to the extent expressly permitted or required under applicable laws and regulations. All Confidential Information that a Disclosing Party provides to a Receiving Party shall not be used by the Receiving Party for any purpose not permitted under this Agreement. The foregoing (a) shall not be applicable to any information that is publicly available when provided by the Disclosing Party or which thereafter becomes publicly available other than in contravention of this Agreement or any confidentiality obligation known to the Receiving Party, (b) shall not prevent disclosure or use of any Confidential Information to the extent necessary to render the services or perform the obligations pursuant to this Agreement, provided that any disclosure to a third party is made subject to confidentiality obligations, and (c) shall not prevent disclosures expressly permitted or required under applicable law, rule or regulation subject to compliance with the following. If a Receiving Party becomes legally compelled (by interrogatories, requests for information or documents, subpoenas, civil investigative demands, applicable regulations or similar processes) to disclose any Confidential Information, the Receiving Party agrees to provide (to the extent practicable and not prohibited under applicable law) the Disclosing Party with prompt notice of that request(s) so that the Disclosing Party may seek an appropriate protective order or other appropriate remedy and/or waive the Receiving Party’s compliance with the provisions of this Agreement. If that protective order or other remedy is not obtained by the date that the Receiving Party must comply with the request, or if the Disclosing Party waives compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Receiving Party agrees to furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which is legally required in the reasonable opinion of its counsel, and to exercise commercially reasonable efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will.

Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
