甲氏：「海外のα社との間で、秘密保持契約を締結することになり、α社からその案が送られてきました。そのうち次の規定は、『秘密情報』の定義を定めていると思うのですが、注意すべき点や、追記・修正すべき点はありますでしょうか。」

For the purpose of this Agreement, 「Confidential Information」 shall mean the followings:
（ⅰ） Any information that is disclosed by the party which discloses such information（「Disclosing Party」）to the party which receives such information（「Receiving Party」）pursuant to this Agreement,which is included in materials（including but not limited to documents or other tangible entity such as electronic media in which electrical data is stored and e-mail）clearly indicated as being confidential; or
（ⅱ） Any information that is designated as being confidential by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party orally;
（ⅲ） Provided the information set forth in the preceding item （ⅱ） shall be included into Confidential Information if the Disclosing Party notifies in writing the Receiving Party, within ten days from the time of the disclosure, of such Confidential Information in itself and that such information is Confidential Information.
Notwithstanding the precedings, Confidential Information shall not include any information which falls into one or more of the followings:
（ⅰ） information which was already known to the public prior to the time of the disclosure by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party;
（ⅱ） information which is or subsequently becomes known to the public other than through the fault or negligence of the Receiving Party after the disclosure by the Disclosing Party to the Receiving Party;
（ⅲ） information which was obtained by the third party other than the Disclosing Party, which was disclosed to the Receiving Party without the third party’s breach of any obligation;
（ⅳ） information which is independently developed by the Receiving Party;

あなた：「まず、いかなる情報が『秘密情報』となるかという点については、［ Ａ ］に注意する必要があります。
また、『秘密情報』から除外されることの多い［ Ｂ ］が除外されていませんので、それを除外した方がよいと考えます。
詳細は、弁護士に確認した方がよいと思いますので、必要であれば、私の知り合いの弁護士を紹介します。」

甲氏：「ありがとうございます。ぜひよろしくお願いします。」
