Copyrighted  materials  including  computer  programs  shall   be

copy of any proprietary information; and that upon the request of
Perkin-Elmer  or  the  termination of your Consulting  Agreement,
whichever occurs first, you will return all material furnished to

this  Agreement from a source other than one having an obligation
of  confidentiality to Perkin-Elmer, (b) hereafter becomes  known
to  you  independently of the disclosure by  Perkin-Elmer  except
