Appendix A - Non Disclosure Clauses
Example 1
The Employee and the Employer undertake that they shall keep the fact of and terms of this Agreement strictly confidential. By her subscription hereof, the Employee accepts that it is a condition of the payment referred to in Clause 6 that she shall keep the terms and conditions of this Settlement Agreement confidential to herself and to her independent advisor referred to in Clause 5 hereof and not breach that obligation of confidentiality to any third party otherwise than, as required by law.
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in Clause 8 specifically and nothing in this Agreement generally shall prejudice any rights that the Employee has or may have under the Public Interest Disclosure Act l998.
Example 2
Both parties agree that the settlement and the terms of this Agreement will remain confidential between the parties and will not be revealed to any third party other than the Claimant's immediate family, professional advisers or otherwise as required by law.
