In handling any confidential information, Lender shall exercise the same degree of care that it exercises for its own proprietary information, but disclosure of information may be made: (i)  to prospective transferees or purchasers of any interest in the Advances (provided, however, Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts in obtaining such prospective transferee’s or purchaser’s agreement to the terms of this provision); (ii) to Lender’s existing lenders and any prospective lenders (who will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential); (iii) to Lender’s board of directors and Lender’s internal credit committee (who will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential); (iv) as required by law, regulation, subpoena, or other order; or (v) to Lender’s Affiliates and limited partners (who will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential) or (vi) as Lender considers appropriate in exercising remedies under this Agreement. Confidential information does not include information that either: (a) is in the public domain or in Lender’s possession when disclosed to Lender, or becomes part of the public domain after disclosure to Lender; (b) is disclosed to Lender by a third party, if Lender does not know that the third party is prohibited from disclosing the information; or (c) is known by Lender by means outside of the negotiation or operation of this Agreement or the transactions related hereto.
