THE CUSTOMER’S ATTENTION IS PARTICULARLY DRAWN TO THIS CLAUSE.

14.1) Any Deliverable produced for the Customer in accordance with the Contract shall be used by the Customer for its exclusive use and benefit and solely for the purpose for which it has been prepared.

14.2) Unless the Supplier provides express prior written consent, no part of the Deliverable should be reproduced, distributed or communicated to any third party.
