`
`PROTECTING YOUR INVENTION OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES
`
`Since the rights granted by a U.S. patent extend only throughout the territory of the United States and have no
`effect in a foreign country, an inventor who wishes patent protection in another country must apply for a patent
`in a specific country or in regional patent offices. Applicants may wish to consider the filing of an international
`application under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT). An international (PCT) application generally has the same
`effect as a regular national patent application in each PCT—member country. The PCT process simplifies the filing
`of patent applications on the same invention in member countries, but does not result in a grant of "an international
`patent" and does not eliminate the need of applicants to file additional documents and fees in countries where patent
`protection is desired.
`
`Almost every country has its own patent law, and a person desiring a patent in a particular country must make an
`application for patent in that country in accordance with its particular laws. Since the laws of many countries differ
`in various respects from the patent law of the United States, applicants are advised to seek guidance from specific
`foreign countries to ensure that patent rights are not lost prematurely.
`
`Applicants also are advised that in the case of inventions made in the United States, the Director of the USPTO must
`issue a license before applicants can apply for a patent in a foreign country. The filing of a U.S. patent application
`serves as a request for a foreign filing license. The application's filing receipt contains further information and
`guidance as to the status of applicants license for foreign filing.
`
`Applicants may wish to consult the USPTO booklet, "General Information Concerning Patents" (specifically, the
`section entitled "Treaties and Foreign Patents") for more information on timeframes and deadlines for filing foreign
`patent applications. The guide is available either by contacting the USPTO Contact Center at 800-786-9199, or it
`can be viewed on the USPTO website at http://www.uspto.gov/web/offices/pac/doc/general/index.html.
`
`For information on preventing theft of your intellectual property (patents, trademarks and copyrights), you may wish
`to consult the U.S. Government website, http://www.stopfakes.gov. Part of a Department of Commerce initiative,
`this website includes self-help "toolkits" giving innovators guidance on how to protect intellectual property in specific
`countries such as China, Korea and Mexico. For questions regarding patent enforcement issues, applicants may
`call the U.S. Government hotline at 1-866-999-HALT (1-866-999-4258).

`
`LICENSE FOR FOREIGN FILING UNDER
`
`Title 35, United States Code, Section 184
`
`Title 37, Code of Federal Regulations, 5.11 & 5.15
`
`GRANTED
`
`if the phrase "IF REQUIRED, FOREIGN FILING
`The applicant has been granted a license under 35 U.S.C. 184,
`LICENSE GRANTED" followed by a date appears on this form. Such licenses are issued in all applications where
`the conditions for issuance of a license have been met, regardless of whether or not a license may be required as
`set forth in 37 CFR 5.15. The scope and limitations of this license are set forth in 37 CFR 5.15(a) unless an earlier
`license has been issued under 37 CFR 5.15(b). The license is subject to revocation upon written notification. The
`date indicated is the effective date of the license, unless an earlier license of similar scope has been granted under
`37 CFR 5.13 or 5.14.
`
`This license is to be retained by the licensee and may be used at any time on or after the effective date thereof unless
`it is revoked. This license is automatically transferred to any related applications(s) filed under 37 CFR 1.53(d). This
`license is not retroactive.
`
`The grant of a license does not in any way lessen the responsibility of a licensee for the security of the subject matter
`as imposed by any Government contract or the provisions of existing laws relating to espionage and the national
`security or the export of technical data. Licensees should apprise themselves of current regulations especially with
`respect to certain countries, of other agencies, particularly the Office of Defense Trade Controls, Department of
`State (with respect to Arms, Munitions and Implements of War (22 CFR 121-128)); the Bureau of Industry and
`Security, Department of Commerce (15 CFR parts 730-774); the Office of Foreign AssetsControl, Department of
`Treasury (31 CFR Parts 500+) and the Department of Energy.
`
`NOT GRANTED
`
`No license under 35 U.S.C. 184 has been granted at this time, if the phrase "IF REQUIRED, FOREIGN FILING
`LICENSE GRANTED" DOES NOT appear on this form. Applicant may still petition for a license under 37 CFR 5.12,
`if a license is desired before the expiration of 6 months from the filing date of the application. If 6 months has lapsed
`from the filing date of this application and the licensee has not received any indication of a secrecy order under 35
`U.S.C. 181, the licensee may foreign file the application pursuant to 37 CFR 5.15(b).

`
`PRQTECTENG YGUR ENVENTEGN OUTSEBE THE Ui\iiTE§ STATES
`
`Since the rights granted by a US. patent extend oniy throughout the territory oi the United States and have no
`effect in a foreign country, an inventor who wishes patent protection in another country must eppiy tor a patent
`in a specific country or in regioriai patent offices. Applicants may wish to consider the fiiirg of an internetionai
`aopiioation under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT). An internationai (PCT) appiicetion genereiiy has the same
`effect as a regular riaticnai patent eppiication in each PCT—rnernber country. The PCT process simpiifies the fiiing
`of patent appiioations on the same invention in member countries, but does not resuit in a grant or‘ "an internationai
`patent“ and does not eiirninate the need of applicants to tile additionai documents and fees in countries where patent
`protection is desired.
`
`Airnost every country has its own patent iaw, and a person desiring a patent in a perimeter‘ country must rn;=1i<;e an
`appiication for patent in that country in accordance with its particular iaws, Since the iaws of many countries differ
`in various respects from the patent iaw oi‘ the United States, eppiicants are advised to seek guidance from speoitic
`foreign countries to ensure that patent rights are not iost prematuretyt
`
`Apptioants aiso are advised that in the case of inventions made in the United States, the Director of the USPTO must
`issue a iicense before appiioants can appiy for a patent in a foreign country. The tiiing of a US. patent eppiioation
`serves as a request for a foreign fiiing iicense. The appiications tiiihg receipt contains further information and
`guidance as to the status of appiioants iicense tor foreign tiiing.
`
`Apptioants may wish to consult the USPTO bookiet, ‘General information Concerning Patents“ (speoificaiiy, the
`section entitied ‘''Treaties and Foreign Patents“) tor more intormation on tirneirames and tieadiines tor tiiing toreign
`patent appiications. The guide is avaiiabie either by contacting the USPTO Contact Center at 800-786-9199, or it
`can be vieweti on the USP'TO website at httpt//www.uspto.gov,/web,/oti‘ices/pac/doc/generei/index.htrnl.
`
`For information on preventing theft of your inteiiectuei property (patents, trademarks and copyrights), you may wish
`to oonsuit the US. Government website, http://wwwtstopiakesgov. Part of a Department or‘ Commerce initiative,
`this website includes seii—heip “tooit<its“ giving innovators guidance on how to protect inteiieotuai property in specific
`countries such as China, Korea and Mexico. For questions regarding patent enforcement issues, apoiicants may
`caii the US. Government hotiine at 1—866—999-HAt.T (1 -8664399-4-158).
