Due to the nature of the development work, MS is not certain as to when errors or discrepancies in the Software may be corrected.

     (g)  Recipient may disclose the Software only to its employees who have a need to know and have access to the Software in order to assist in Recipient's testing of the Software, provided that (i) such employee's use of the Software takes place solely at Recipient's site and (ii) Recipient has executed appropriate written agreements with such employees sufficient to enable it to comply with the terms of this Agreement.
