Each party shall use the same level of care to prevent the disclosure of the Confidential Information of the other party that it exercises in protecting its own Confidential Information and shall, in any event, take all reasonable precautions to prevent the disclosure of Confidential Information to any third party.

11.2 Non-Confidential Information. The following shall not be considered to be Confidential Information: (a) information which is publicly known or which becomes publicly known through no fault of the receiving party; (b) information which is lawfully obtained by the receiving party from a third party (which third party itself lawfully obtained the Confidential Information and has no obligation of confidentiality); and (c) information which is in the lawful possession of the receiving party, as documented by the records of such receiving party, prior to such information having been initially disclosed by the disclosing party.
