3.2 Termination. Either party may terminate this Agreement upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the other party (i) due to an uncured material breach of the other party; (ii) due to the insolvency or bankruptcy of the other party; or (iii) in the event of a change in the control or business operations of a party that the other party reasonably deems would affect such party’s ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

4. Confidentiality.

Each party (“Receiving Party”) agrees that all non-public information it obtains from the disclosing party (“Disclosing Party”) constitutes the confidential property of the Disclosing Party (“Confidential Information”), provided that it is identified in writing as confidential at the time of disclosure, is identified as confidential in writing within 30 days of the disclosure, or is of a nature that a reasonable person with knowledge of the Disclosing Party’s business would understand to be confidential. For the avoidance of doubt, Confidential Information includes all customer data, code, inventions, know-how, business, technical, financial and personal data the Receiving Party obtains from the Disclosing Party. Except as provided herein, the Receiving Party will hold in confidence and not use or disclose any Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party.
