SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DoN intends to move expeditiously to 
license these inventions. Licensing application packages are available 
from TechLink and all applications and commercialization plans must be 
returned to TechLink by September 15, 2013. TechLink will turn over all 
completed applications to the DoN for evaluation by October 1, 2013, 
with final negotiations and awards occurring during the months of 
October and November, 2013.
    The DoN will consider requests for nonexclusive and partially 
exclusive licenses in the U.S., and may prefer to grant an exclusive 
license outside of the U.S. to a company both capable of broad 
commercialization and the ability to prosecute and maintain national 
stage filings in most territories outside of the U.S. The DoN intends 
that licensees interested in a license in territories outside of the 
U.S. will assume foreign prosecution and pay the cost of such 
prosecution.
    The DoN, in its decisions concerning the granting of licenses, will 
give special consideration to existing licensee's, small business 
firms, and consortia involving small business firms. The DoN intends to 
ensure that its licensed inventions are broadly commercialized 
throughout the United States.

    Authority: 35 U.S.C. 207, 37 CFR Part 404.
