135 | by the fact of Government Agency's or a prior Recipient's participation in this | ||

162 | H. A Recipient may choose to offer, and to charge a fee for, warranty, support, | ||
163 | indemnity and/or liability obligations to one or more other Recipients of the | ||
164 | Subject Software. A Recipient may do so, however, only on its own behalf and | ||
