Exhibit 7
<br />8. CONFIDENTIALITY
<br />If Provider receives from the City information which due to the nature of such information
<br />is reasonably understood to be confidential and/or proprietary, Provider agrees that it shall not use
<br />or disclose such information except in the performance of this Agreement, and further agrees to
<br />exercise the same degree of care it uses to protect its own information of like importance, but in
<br />no event less than reasonable care. "Confidential Information" shall include all nonpublic
<br />information. Confidential information includes not only written information, but also information
<br />transferred orally, visually, electronically, or by other means. Confidential information disclosed
<br />to either party by any subsidiary and/or agent of the other party is covered by this Agreement. The
<br />foregoing obligations of non-use and nondisclosure shall not apply to any information that (a) has
<br />been disclosed in publicly available sources; (b) is, through no fault of the Provider disclosed in a
<br />publicly available source; (c) is in rightful possession of the Provider without an obligation of
<br />confidentiality; (d) is required to be disclosed by operation of law; or (e) is independently
<br />developed by the Provider without reference to information disclosed by the City. This
<br />confidentiality provision shall survive expiration or termination of this Agreement.
