BY INSTALLING, COPYING OR OTHERWISE USING THE PRODUCT (AS DEFINED BELOW), YOU AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT.  IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO THE TERMS OF THIS AGREEMENT, DO NOT INSTALL, COPY OR USE THE PRODUCT.

Accompanying this Agreement is a pre-release copy of the Microsoft software identified above, which may also include related documentation and information (collectively the “Software”). The Software is protected by copyright laws and international copyright treaties, as well as other intellectual property laws and treaties.  The Software is licensed, not sold.  
1.	GRANT OF LICENSE.  This Agreement grants Recipient the following rights provided that Recipient complies with all terms and conditions of this Agreement: 
	(a)	Microsoft grants to Recipient a limited, non-exclusive, nontransferable, royalty-free license to install and use one copy of the executable code of the Software on a single CPU residing on Recipient’s premises, solely to test the compatibility of Recipient’s application or other product(s) which operate in conjunction with the Software and to evaluate the Software for the purpose of providing feedback thereon to Microsoft.  All other rights are reserved to Microsoft.  Recipient shall not rent, lease, sell, sublicense, assign, or otherwise transfer any portion of the Software.  Recipient may not reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble any portion of the Software, except and only to the extent that this limitation is expressly prohibited by applicable law notwithstanding this limitation.  
	(b)	Recipient agrees to provide reasonable feedback to Microsoft regarding the Software, including but not limited to usability, bug reports and test results (collectively, “Feedback”).  All bug reports, test results and other feedback provided to Microsoft by Recipient shall be the property of Microsoft and may be used by Microsoft for any purpose.  Recipient further agrees that:  (i) Microsoft may freely use, disclose, reproduce, license, distribute and otherwise commercialize the Feedback in any Microsoft product, technology, service, specification or other documentation (collectively, “Microsoft Offerings”), (ii) Recipient also grants third parties, without charge, only those patent rights necessary to enable their products, technologies or services to use or interface with any specific parts of a Microsoft Offering that incorporate the Feedback; and (iii) Recipient will not give Microsoft Feedback subject to license terms that seek to require any Microsoft Offering that incorporates or is derived from any Feedback, or other Microsoft intellectual property, to be licensed to or otherwise shared with any third party.  Due to the nature of the development work, Microsoft provides no assurance that any specific errors or discrepancies in the Software will be corrected.
	(c)	Recipient may disclose the Software only to its employees who have a need to know in order to accomplish the purposes identified in Section 1(a), and such employees’ use of the Software shall take place solely at Recipient’s site.  Recipient will have executed appropriate written agreements with its employees sufficient to enable it to comply with the terms of this Agreement.  
	(d)	Recipient agrees that, for a period of up to six (6) months after commercial release of the Software, it will maintain a list of all employees who have had access hereunder to the Software or related information and provide such list to Microsoft upon Microsoft’s request. 
	(e)	In the event Microsoft, in its sole discretion, elects to provide deliveries of Software to more than one individual employed by Recipient (if Recipient is not a single individual), each such recipient shall be entitled to exercise the rights granted in this Agreement, and shall be bound by the terms and conditions herein.
2.	TERM OF AGREEMENT. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the date accepted by Recipient and shall continue until terminated by Microsoft in writing at any time, with or without cause.  This Agreement will terminate without notice upon the earlier of (i) commercial release of the Software or Hardware contained in the Software or (ii) one year after the last date Recipient receives the Software or any Update thereto, unless terminated earlier by Microsoft.  Upon the termination of this Agreement (or upon request by Microsoft), Recipient shall promptly return to Microsoft, or certify destruction of, all full or partial copies of the Software provided by Microsoft.  The following Sections shall survive termination or expiration of this Agreement:  Sections 1(b), 1(d), 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10; and Section 5 with respect to any information that has not been made public by Microsoft as of the commercial release of the Software, provided that if the Software is a pre-release version of Microsoft Windows XP, Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional, or predecessor, successor, or replacement versions of such software (collectively, “Desktop OS Product”), Section 5 shall not survive longer than one year from receipt of the Software.
3.	COST OF TESTING.  There is no charge to Recipient for testing of the Software.  Microsoft shall bear all direct freight expenses relating to the shipment of the Software to Recipient’s place of business and Recipient will pay any return freight expenses.
4.	PRODUCT MAINTENANCE/UPDATES.  Microsoft is not obligated to provide maintenance, technical support or updates to Recipient for the Software provided to Recipient pursuant to this Agreement.  However, Microsoft may, in its sole discretion, provide further pre-release versions, technical support, updates and/or supplements of the Software and/or related information (“Updates”) to Recipient hereunder, in which case such Updates shall also be deemed to be included in the “Software,” and therefore governed by this Agreement, unless other terms of use are provided by Microsoft with such Updates.  In no event shall Microsoft be obligated to provide Recipient a copy of the commercial release version of the Software in connection with Recipient’s participation in the testing program.  Microsoft is not obligated to make the Software commercially available.
5.	CONFIDENTIALITY.  The Software, including its existence and features, and related information are proprietary and confidential information to Microsoft and its suppliers.  Recipient agrees not to disclose or provide the Software, documentation, or any related information (including the Software features or the results of use or testing) to any third party, for a period of one year following receipt of the Software (if the Software is a Desktop OS Product) or until commercial release of the Software, whichever occurs first; provided that thereafter, if the Software is not a Desktop OS Product, Recipient agrees not to disclose or provide to any third party any information that has not been made public by Microsoft as of the commercial release of the applicable Software or Hardware.  However, Recipient may disclose confidential information in accordance with judicial or other governmental order, provided Recipient shall give Microsoft reasonable written notice prior to such disclosure and shall comply with any applicable protective order or equivalent.  Further, Recipient shall not be liable to Microsoft for disclosure of information which Recipient can prove (a) is already known to Recipient without an obligation to maintain the same as confidential; (b) becomes publicly known through no wrongful act of Recipient; (c) is rightfully received from a third party without breach of an obligation of confidentiality owed to Microsoft; or (d) is independently developed by Recipient.  
6.	INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS. All title and intellectual property rights in and to the Software (including but not limited to any images, photographs, animations, video, audio, music, text and “applets” incorporated into the Software and any features incorporated into the Hardware), and any copies of the Software that Recipient is expressly permitted to make herein, are owned by Microsoft or its suppliers.  All title and intellectual property rights in and to the content which may be accessed through use of the Software are the property of the respective content owner and may be protected by applicable copyright or other intellectual property laws and treaties.  This Agreement grants Recipient no rights to use such content.
