XIII. CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION

13.1 Definition. For purposes of this Agreement, the term "Confidential Information" means information relating to Franchisor or the System that is not generally available to the public, including the Manuals, operational standards, specifications, procedures and methods, recipes and food and

preparation methods, prepared mixes, products, supplies, equipment, marketing, advertising and promotional material and methods, and accounting systems, and all other information and know-how relating to the methods of developing, operating and marketing the Franchised Business and the System. Further, Confidential Information shall include all customer information, lists, data and records of the Franchised Business. Confidential Information does not include information Franchisee can demonstrate came to Franchisee's attention through legal methods other than by disclosure by Franchisor, or which, at the time of disclosure thereof by Franchisor to Franchisee, had become a part of the public domain, through publication or communication by others; or which, after disclosure to Franchisee by Franchisor, becomes a part of the public domain, through publication or communication by others.

13.2 Maintenance of Confidential Information. During the Term, and after the expiration or termination of this Agreement, Franchisee must use its best efforts to protect the Confidential Information. Accordingly, Franchisee must not communicate, divulge, or use for the benefit of any other person, persons or entity, any part of the Confidential Information. Franchisee may divulge such Confidential Information only to such employees of Franchisee who must have access to it in order to carry out Franchisee's obligations under this Agreement, and as may be required by law, provided Franchisee shall give Franchisor prior written notice of any such required disclosure by law immediately upon receipt of notice by Franchisee in order for Franchisor to have the opportunity to seek a protective order or take such other actions as it deems appropriate under the circumstances. Franchisor reserves the right to require Franchisee, or any of its owners, officers, partners, principals, managers, and employees having access to the Confidential Information to execute a confidentiality agreement or similar instrument(s) containing restrictions as those provided in this Section and, as applicable, throughout this Agreement. Such requirement shall not create an employee or joint employee relationship between Franchisor and Franchisee's employees, nor does it constitute control by Franchisor over Franchisee's employment matters.
