Established Golf & Recreation Business in Upstate New York

Brokerage: Queen of Commercial Real Estate (“Broker”)

In exchange for receiving confidential information about the business opportunity identified above (“Business”), I agree to the following:

1. Purpose
I am requesting information solely to evaluate a potential purchase of or investment in the Business.

2. Confidential Information
“Confidential Information” includes nonpublic information provided by the Broker or business owner, including the Business’s identity and location, financial records, operating details, customer and employee information, pricing, lease terms, and other materials relating to the Business or its proposed sale. The fact that the Business is available for sale is also confidential unless publicly disclosed by the owner or Broker.

3. Use and Disclosure
I will protect the Confidential Information with reasonable care and will not publish, distribute, or use it for any purpose other than evaluating the opportunity. I may share it only with my attorneys, accountants, lenders, or other professional advisers who need it for that evaluation and are bound by confidentiality obligations. I am responsible for their compliance with these restrictions.

4. Contact with the Business
Without the Broker’s prior written permission, I will not contact the owner, employees, customers, suppliers, or landlord about the proposed sale or disclose the potential sale to them. Inquiries and requests for additional information will be directed through the Broker.

5. Exceptions
These obligations do not apply to information that I can demonstrate was lawfully known to me without restriction before disclosure, becomes public through no breach of this agreement, is lawfully received from another source without a confidentiality obligation, or is independently developed without using the Confidential Information. If disclosure is required by law, I may disclose only what is required and, where legally permitted, will give the Broker prompt advance notice.

6. Return or Deletion
Upon written request, I will return or delete the Confidential Information and copies, except records required by law or professional retention obligations, which remain subject to confidentiality.

7. No Commitment to Purchase
This agreement does not require either party to proceed with a transaction. I am responsible for conducting independent due diligence before making any purchase or investment decision.

8. Duration
These confidentiality obligations continue for [NUMBER] years from submission. Trade secrets remain protected for as long as they qualify as trade secrets under applicable law.

9. Electronic Acceptance
By checking the agreement box, entering my full legal name, and submitting this form, I intend to sign this agreement electronically and agree to be bound by its terms. The submission date will serve as the agreement date.
