by Garmin are proprietary and confidential information of Garmin and shall constitute “Garmin Confidential
Information” under this Agreement. “Garmin Confidential Information” also includes any other non-public

of the API about Garmin’s products, designs, research, development, know-how, or Garmin’s business, finances or
personnel.

9.2. Garmin works with many application and software developers and some of their products may be similar to or
compete with Licensee’s products and applications. Garmin may also be developing its own similar or competing
applications and products or may decide to do so in the future. To avoid potential misunderstandings, Garmin
cannot agree, and expressly disclaims, any confidentiality obligations or use restrictions, express or implied, with
respect to any information that Licensee may provide in connection with these terms of use, including information
about Licensee’s products and application (such disclosures will be referred to as “Licensee Disclosures”).
Licensee agrees that any such Licensee Disclosures will be non-confidential. Garmin will be free to use and
disclose any Licensee Disclosures on an unrestricted basis without notifying or compensating Licensee. Licensee
releases Garmin and its affiliates from all liability and obligations that may arise from the receipt, review, use, or
disclosure of any portion of any Licensee Disclosures. Any physical materials Licensee submits to Garmin will
become Garmin property and Garmin will have no obligation to return those materials to Licensee or to certify their
destruction.

9.3. Licensee agrees to protect Garmin Confidential Information using at least the same degree of care that it uses to
protect its own confidential information of similar importance, but no less than a reasonable degree of care.
Licensee agrees to use Garmin Confidential Information solely for the purpose of exercising its rights and performing
its obligations under this terms of use and agree not to use Garmin Confidential Information for any other purpose,
or for its own or any third party’s benefit, without the prior written consent of an authorized representative of Garmin.
Licensee further agree not to disclose or disseminate Garmin Confidential Information to anyone, or to discuss
anything about the Garmin Confidential Information with anyone, other than those of Licensee’s employees and
contractors who have a need to know and who are bound by a written agreement that prohibits unauthorized use
or disclosure of the Confidential Information, or except as otherwise agreed in writing by Garmin. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Licensee may disclose confidential information to the extent required by judicial or other
governmental order, provided Licensee shall give Garmin reasonable written notice prior to such disclosure and
shall comply with any applicable protective order or equivalent order governing the information disclosure.

9.4. Licensee will not issue any press releases or make any other public statements regarding Garmin without Garmin’s
express prior written approval.
