Use of Residual Knowledge. Each Party acknowledges that the other Party’s personnel may retain in their unaided memories knowledge gained in the course of this Agreement or the Collaboration Agreement. Use of such knowledge by a receiving Party’s personnel will not be a misuse of the disclosing Party’s Confidential Information or a violation of the confidentiality obligation in Section 10 (Confidentiality) so long as such disclosing Party’s Confidential Information is not disclosed, commercialized, or specifically conveyed to others and so long as the receiving Party’s personnel has not intentionally memorized the knowledge for the purpose of retaining it.
