Submitter:  Rachel Albright<ralbrigh@cisco.com>



Cisco is the owner of US Patent Application Serial No. 12/262,498 relating to the subject matter of 
"Integrated Services (IntServ) Extension to Allow Multiple TSPECs" <draft-polk-tsvwg-intserv-multiple-tspec-00>.

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.
