This
notice of intent to grant an exclusive
license is issued in accordance with 35
U.S.C. 209(c)(1) and 37 CFR
404.7(a)(1)(i). The prospective exclusive
license also complies with the
requirements of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37
CFR 404.7.
35 U.S.C. 209(c) gives DOE the
authority to grant exclusive or partially
exclusive licenses in federally-owned
inventions where a determination is
made, among other things, that the
desired practical application of the
invention has not been achieved, or is
not likely to be achieved expeditiously,
under a nonexclusive license. The
statute and implementing regulations
(37 CFR 404) require that the necessary
determinations be made after public
notice and opportunity for filing written
comments and objections.
Boron Nitride Power has applied for
an exclusive license to practice the
inventions embodied in the U.S. Patent
Number 8,389,178 and has plans for
commercialization of the inventions.
Within 15 days of publication of this
notice, any person may submit in
writing to DOE’s Assistant General
Counsel for Intellectual Property and
Technology Transfer Office (see contact
information), either of the following,
together with supporting documents:
(i) A statement setting forth reasons
why it would not be in the best interest
of the United States to grant the
proposed license; or (ii) An application
for a nonexclusive license to the
invention, in which applicant states that
it already has brought the invention to
practical application or is likely to bring
the invention to practical application
expeditiously.
The proposed license would be
exclusive, subject to a license and other
rights retained by the United States, and
subject to a negotiated royalty. DOE will
review all timely written responses to
this notice, and will grant the licenses
if, after expiration of the 15-day notice
period, and after consideration of any
written responses to this notice, a
determination is made in accordance
with 35 U.S.C. 209(c) that the licenses
are in the public interest.
