This Agreement benefits the Property seller (“Seller”) and Seller’s listing broker (“Broker”). By acknowledging this Agreement, you represent and warrant that you are accessing Confidential Information solely in connection with a possible Transaction involving the Property, and that you are not the borrower, debtor, guarantor, or other obligor with respect to the Property, nor an affiliate, representative, agent, accountant, or attorney of any such party.

1. Confidential Information

As used in this Agreement, “Confidential Information” includes all information relating to the Property provided by or on behalf of Seller to you and your Representatives (as defined below) in any form, whether provided before or after the date you acknowledge this Agreement.

2. Limitations on Use

You may use Confidential Information solely for evaluating the purchase of or extension of financing for the Property (“Transaction”), and not for any other purpose. Unauthorized use of Confidential Information is prohibited and may cause irreparable harm to Seller and Broker. This Agreement does not convey any intellectual property rights or licenses in or to Confidential Information.

3. Limitations on Disclosure

Confidential Information is proprietary and confidential. You agree to take reasonable measures to protect Confidential Information from unauthorized access or use and not to disclose it to any third party without prior written consent from Seller or Broker. You may disclose Confidential Information on a need-to-know basis to your Representatives who are informed of and agree to be bound by this Agreement. You and your Representatives are jointly and severally liable for any breach of this Agreement. You must promptly notify Seller and Broker of any unauthorized disclosure or security breach involving Confidential Information.

13. Assignment

This Agreement binds and benefits the parties and their successors and assigns. You may not assign this Agreement without prior written consent from Seller or Broker.

14. Miscellaneous

This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements regarding its subject matter. A party’s failure to enforce any right does not waive future enforcement. This Agreement may only be modified in writing. The disclosure of Confidential Information does not imply an intent to sell or purchase the Property or commit to financing. If any term is invalid, the remaining terms remain in effect. You represent that you are authorized to enter this Agreement and legally bind the entity you represent. Acceptance of this Agreement electronically is binding and enforceable under applicable laws.
