  • The treatment of Legally Required Disclosure in NDAs can vary in its presentation and level of detail. Let's explore these two common approaches:
    1. As a standalone numbered article:

       When Legally Required Disclosure is presented as an entire numbered article, it allows for more comprehensive coverage of the topic. This approach is often used in more detailed or complex NDAs.

    2. As a simple clause within another article: In other cases, especially in simpler or more concise NDAs, the Legally Required Disclosure provision might be included as a brief clause within a larger article, often in the "Exceptions to Confidentiality" section. This briefer approach incorporates the key elements of legally required disclosure – the exception itself and the notification requirement – without going into as much detail as the full article version.
  • The choice between these two approaches often depends on factors such as:
    1. The overall length and complexity of the NDA
    2. The likelihood of legally required disclosures in the specific context
    3. The level of detail desired by the parties
    4. The sensitivity of the information being protected
    5. Industry standards or regulatory requirements
  • In practice, many organizations have template NDAs that they use consistently, which will typically follow one of these approaches. However, for high-stakes agreements or those involving particularly sensitive information, parties might negotiate more detailed provisions around legally required disclosures.
