The rights herein granted to Customer shall not affect the exclusive ownership by Stryker of the Software or of any trademarks, copyrights, patents, trade secrets, proprietary rights, or other property rights of Stryker (or any of Stryker’s suppliers or licensors) pertaining to the Software.
Customer agrees that only authorized employees or agents of Customer will use the Software or have access to the same (or to any part thereof) and that none of Customer’s employees or agents will disclose any part or all of the Software, or permit any part or all the same to be used by any person or entity other than those identified herein.
