(a) to maintain such Proprietary Information in confidence and refrain from disclosing it to third parties by exercising the same degree of care to preserve and safeguard such Proprietary Information as the Receiving Party uses to preserve and safeguard its own Proprietary Information, which shall in no event be less than reasonable care;
