11. Confidentiality
Each party acknowledges that during the Initial Term of this Agreement it shall
have access to information about the other party's business, business methods,
business plans, customers, business relations, technology, and other
information, including the terms of this Agreement, that is confidential and of
great value to the other party, and the value of which would be significantly
reduced if disclosed to third parties (the "Confidential Information").
Accordingly, when a party (the "Receiving Party") receives Confidential
Information from another party (the "Disclosing Party"), the Receiving Party
shall, and shall obligate its employees and agents and employees and agents of
its affiliates to: (i) maintain the Confidential Information in strict
confidence; (ii) not disclose the Confidential Information to a third party
without the Disclosing Party's prior written approval; and (iii) not, directly
or indirectly, use the Confidential Information for any purpose other than for
exercising its rights and fulfilling its responsibilities pursuant to this
Agreement.  Each party shall take reasonable measures to protect the
Confidential Information of the other party, which measures shall not be less
than the measures taken by such party to protect its own confidential and
proprietary information.

"Confidential Information" shall not include information that (a) is or becomes
generally known to the public through no act or omission of the Receiving Party;
(b) was in the Receiving Party's lawful possession prior to the disclosure
hereunder and was not subject to limitations on disclosure or use; (c) is
developed by employees of the Receiving Party or other persons working for the
Receiving Party who have not had access to the Confidential Information of the
Disclosing Party, as proven by the written records of the Receiving Party or by
persons who have not had access to the Confidential Information of the
Disclosing Party as proven by the written records of the Receiving Party; (d) is
lawfully disclosed to the Receiving Party without restrictions, by a third party
not under an obligation of confidentiality; or (e) the Receiving Party is
legally compelled to disclose the information, in which case the Receiving Party
shall assert the privileged and confidential nature of the information and
cooperate fully with the Disclosing Party to protect against and prevent
disclosure of any Confidential Information and to limit the scope of disclosure
and the dissemination of disclosed Confidential Information by all legally
available means.

The obligations of the Receiving Party under this Section shall continue during
the Initial Term and for a period of five (5) years after expiration or
termination of this Agreement.  To the extent that the terms of the
Non-Disclosure Agreement between Digia and Licensee conflict with the terms of
this Section 11, this Section 11 shall be controlling over the terms of the
Non-Disclosure Agreement.
