`
`The cases have been submitted for allowance. The interview summary records
`should have been faxed. I'll have each faxed again. As for the reasons for .
`allowance, as discussed, the contents thereof are not of record until the
`
`case hasbeen reviewed Reasons for allowance are generally not subject to
`negotiation, but you will be granted an opportunity to respond. Your
`comments should follow the receipt of the notice of allowance and should be
`submitted no later than the payment of the issue fee. I do not anticipate
`any problems but should we disagree, you should not expect any further
`comment on my part. See 37 CFR l.l04(e).

`
`[just received the fax of the Interview Summaries. Thank you.
`
`The reason I mentioned Reasons for Allowance was not to negotiate, but
`rather to follow-up on our discussion Friday regarding the withdrawal of the
`double patenting rejection and the terminal disclaimer in the 09/589,751
`case. I believe we had discussed that you would include language either in
`the Interview Summary or
`the Reasons for Allowance to the effect that the
`double patenting rejection was withdrawn in View of the agreement reached
`regarding the claim amendments, and that the Terminal Disclaimer was no
`
`longer necessary. This will support our filing of a petition to revoke the
`Term. Discl. and the PTO granting the same.
`
`.Also, please let me know what you find‘ out from your supervisors regarding
`the Terminal Disclaimer and whether we should go ahead and file the petition
`to revoke it. We don't want to delay matters by making anyurmecessary
`filings.
