`
`Authorization or Opt-Out of Authorization to Permit Access:
`
`When this Application Data Sheet is properly signed and filed with the application, applicant has provided written authority to
`permit a participating foreign intellectual property (IP) office access to the instant application-as-filed (see paragraph A in
`subsection 1 below) and the European Patent Office (EPO) access to any search results from the instant application (see
`paragraph B in subsection 1 below).
`
`Should applicant choose not to provide an authorization identified in subsection 1 below, applicant must opt-out of the
`authorization by checking the corresponding box A or B or both in subsection 2 below.
`
`NOTE: This section of the Application Data Sheet is ONLY reviewed and processed with the INITIAL filing of an application.
`After the initial filing of an application, an Application Data Sheet cannot be used to provide or rescind authorization for access
`by a foreign IP office(s). Instead, Form PTO/SB/39 or PTO/SB/69 must be used as appropriate.
`
`1. Authorization to Permit Access by a Foreign Intellectual Property Office(s)
`
`A. Priority Document Exchange (PDX) - Unless box A in subsection 2 (opt-out of authorization) is checked, the undersigned
`hereby grants the USPTO authority to provide the European Patent Office (EPO), the Japan Patent Office (JPO), the Korean
`Intellectual Property Office (KIPO), the State Intellectual Property Office of the People's Republic of China (SIPO), the World
`Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO), and any other foreign intellectual property office participating with the USPTO in a
`bilateral or multilateral priority document exchange agreement in which a foreign application claiming priority to the instant
`patent application is filed, access to: (1) the instant patent application-as-filed and its related bibliographic data, (2) any foreign
`or domestic application to which priority or benefit is claimed by the instant application and its related bibliographic data, and
`(3) the date of filing of this Authorization. See 37 CFR 1.14(h)(1).
`
`B. Search Results from U.S. Application to EPO - Unless box B in subsection 2 (opt-out of authorization) is checked, the
`undersigned hereby grants the USPTO authority to provide the EPO access to the bibliographic data and search results from
`the instant patent application when a European patent application claiming priority to the instant patent application is filed. See
`37 CFR 1.14(h)(2).
`
`The applicant is reminded that the EPO's Rule 141(1) EPC (European Patent Convention) requires applicants to submit a copy of
`search results from the instant application without delay in a European patent application that claims priority to the instant
`application.
`
`2. Opt-Out of Authorizations to Permit Access by a Foreign Intellectual Property Office(s)
`
`A. Applicant DOES NOT authorize the USPTO to permit a participating foreign IP office access to the instant
`El application-as-filed. If this box is checked, the USPTO will not be providing a participating foreign IP office with any
`documents and information identified in subsection 1A above.
`
`q
`
`B. Applicant DOES NOT authorize the USPTO to transmit to the EPO any search results from the instant patent
`application. If this box is checked, the USPTO will not be providing the EPO with search results from the instant application.
`
`NOTE: Once the application has published or is otherwise publicly available, the USPTO may provide access to the application in
`accordance with 37 CFR 1.14.
