subscriptions to the WebMD service hereunder, WebMD, by separate

shall remain exercisable for a period of five years, and shall contain
commercially reasonable terms and conditions.
8. Proprietary Rights and Confidentiality.
8.1 Proprietary Information. "Proprietary Information" means any data or
information regarding (i) the business operations of a party which is
not generally known to the public and affords such party a competitive
advantage, including but not limited to, information regarding its
products and product development, suppliers, marketing strategies,
finance, operations, customers, sales, and internal performance
results; (ii) proprietary software, including but not limited to:
concepts, designs, documentation, reports, data, specifications, source
code, object code, flow charts, file record layouts, databases,
inventions and trade secrets, whether or not patentable or
copyrightable; and (iii) the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
8.2 Ownership and Protection. Each party agrees that it has no interest in
or right to use the Proprietary Information of the other except in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each party acknowledges
that it may disclose Proprietary Information to the other in the
performance of this Agreement. The party receiving the Proprietary
Information shall (i) maintain it in strict confidence and take all
reasonable steps to prevent its disclosure to third parties, except to
the extent necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement, in
which case these confidentiality restrictions shall be imposed upon the
third parties to whom the disclosures are made; (ii) use at least the
same degree of care as it uses in maintaining the secrecy of its own
Proprietary Information (but no less than a reasonable degree of care);
and (iii) prevent the removal of any proprietary, confidential or
copyright notices placed on the Proprietary Information.
8.3 Limitation. Neither party shall have any obligation concerning any
portion of the Proprietary Information of the other which (i) is
publicly known prior to or after disclosure hereunder other than
through acts or omissions attributable to the recipient or its
employees or representatives; (ii) as demonstrated by prior written
records, is already known to the recipient at the time of disclosure
hereunder; (iii) is disclosed in good faith to the recipient by a third
party having a lawful right to do so; or (iv) is the subject of written

disclosure; or (v) is required to be disclosed by the receiving party
by applicable law or legal process, provided that the receiving party
shall immediately notify the other party so that it can take steps to
prevent its disclosure.
8.4 Remedies for Breach. In the event of a breach of this Section 8, the
parties agree that the non-breaching party may suffer irreparable harm
and the total amount of monetary damages for any injury to the
non-breaching party may be impossible to calculate and would therefore
be an inadequate remedy. Accordingly, the parties agree that the
non-breaching party may be entitled to temporary, preliminary and
permanent injunctive relief against the breaching party, its officers
or employees, in addition to such other rights and remedies to which it
may be entitled at law or in equity.
