Receiving Party agrees to hold in confidence and not to disclose or reveal to any person or entity the Disclosing Party's Confidential Information, and not to use Disclosing Party's Confidential Information for any purpose other than in connection with the parties' discussions regarding, and performance of, a Transaction.

Receiving Party.
