It is recognized that in the course of the discussions around the projects, information about the transaction, the parties to the transaction, including but not limited to existing and potential client relationships, financial data, financial projections, inventions, property information, and intellectual property may be exchanged between the parties. Each party agrees that this information, client relationships, financial data, property information, financial projections and intellectual property collectively referred to as “proprietary information” could be considered proprietary in nature and this agreement is intended to protect the rights of each of the parties in regard to this information, client relationships, financial data and projections and intellectual property.

All parties are prohibited from circumventing these relationships and entering into direct agreements that are outside of this Agreement.
Whereas, WNC, and Referral Partner may have access to this proprietary information for the sole purpose described above, all parties agree to hold all disclosed confidential or proprietary information or trade secrets (“proprietary information”) in trust and confidence and agrees that it shall be used only for the contemplated purpose, and shall not be used for any other purpose nor disclosed to any third party without consent of other party.
