Thereafter, the Receiving Party may\ \ disclose the Confidential Information of the Disclosing Party, but only to the extent required\ \ by applicable law and subject to any protective order that applies to such disclosure; and\ \ (ii) to: (A) its accountants, internal and external auditors and other professional advisors\ \ if and to the extent that such persons need to know such Confidential Information in order\ \ to provide the applicable professional advisory services relating to the Receiving Party;\ \ and (B) employees of the Receiving Party and its subcontractors if and to the extent that\ \ such persons need to know such Confidential Information to perform their respective obligations\ \ under this Agreement;\n\nprovided that any such person is aware of the provisions of this\ \ Section 6.2 and has entered into a written agreement with the Receiving Party that includes\ \ confidentiality obligations in respect of such Confidential Information of the Disclosing\ \ Party that are no less stringent than those contained in this Section 6.2.\n\n6.3 \ \ Consent to Injunctive Relief.
