Submitter:  Rachel Albright<ralbrigh@cisco.com>


Cisco is the owner of US Published Patent Application 20060089988 relating to the subject 
matter of "RSVP Extensions for Flexible Resource Sharing" 
<draft-narayanan-tsvwg-rsvp-resource-sharing-00.txt>.

If technology in this document is included in a standard adopted by IETF and any claims of 
any Cisco patents are necessary for practicing the standard, any party will have the right to 
use any such patent claims under reasonable, non-discriminatory terms, with reciprocity, to 
implement and fully comply with the standard.

The reasonable non-discriminatory terms are:

If this standard is adopted, Cisco will not assert any patents owned or controlled by Cisco 
against any party for making, using, selling, importing or offering for sale a product that 
implements the standard, provided, however that Cisco retains the right to assert its patents
 (including the right to claim past royalties) against any party that asserts a patent it owns or 
controls (either directly or indirectly) against Cisco or any of Cisco's affiliates or successors 
in title or against any products of Cisco or any products of any of Cisco's affiliates either alone 
or in combination with other products; and Cisco retains the right to assert its patents against 
any product or portion thereof that is not necessary for compliance with the standard.

Royalty-bearing licenses will be available to anyone who prefers that option.
