3 Patent Enforcement: Licensing and Litigation Companies frequently use technology developed and patented by academic and research institutions without first entering into a licensing agreement. As a result, the institution loses revenue and fails to be recognized for its inventive contribution. Due to the lack of financial and legal resources necessary to pursue legal action, these institutions have little recourse against infringing companies. Fish has a long and proud tradition of successfully enforcing patents for academic and research institutions. We offer a variety of alternative fee options for enforcement, including arrangements where Fish covers all legal fees and costs to pursue licensing and litigation, where necessary. These arrangements provide an opportunity for institutions to recover lost revenue by enforcing their patent rights without financial risk. How It Works For academic and research institutions that have an interest in enforcing their patent rights, the process begins by contacting Fish and providing basic information, such as the patent(s) and the names of the companies that may be using the patented technology without permission. At that point, Fish will conduct a preliminary assessment of the matter without any obligation (financial or otherwise) from the institution. If the matter is suitable for enforcement, Fish will then enter into an engagement agreement with the institution. Next, Fish will perform a more in-depth review of the matter and develop enforcement options for consideration. Fish will then implement the strategy authorized by the institution. In many cases, Fish will be able to resolve the dispute through licensing discussions. Sometimes, however, these attempts for an amicable resolution fail and litigation is necessary. Fish has handled more patent litigation each year than any other firm for the past decade. Should litigation ensue, Fish has the experience to achieve a great result for your institution. Our record speaks for itself. Fish handled 220 patent litigation cases in 2012, more than double the number of any other firm. We consistently win the largest, most important, and most technically sophisticated cases. This is why more Fortune 100 companies in the world trust Fish over any other firm to handle IP litigation matters worth billions of dollars. Corporate Counsel, November 2013 Post-Grant Practice > Post-grant review has quickly become an important aspect of any patent enforcement effort. Companies accused of patent infringement frequently use post-grant review to challenge the patent s validity during litigation. Fish is a leader in handling post-grant proceedings. Your engagement with Fish will include these services at no additional cost. > Fish has the most active post-grant practice in the world for both petitioner and patent owner, representing patent owners in 53 proceedings and petitioners in 61 proceedings as of April 2014.

4 With a proven track record, the partnership between Fish & Richardson and Bastille, LLC the Bastille Program has successfully commercialized academic and research institutions patents through the following unique programs that quickly and efficiently capture revenue. Patent Prosecution and Commercialization When a promising technology comes along that has significant commercial potential, why treat it like every other new invention disclosure? You shouldn t. Budget constraints, however, often make it difficult to justify spending the funds necessary to obtain comprehensive, high-quality patent protection in the U.S. and appropriate global markets. Fish & Richardson and Bastille, LLC, have partnered in an unrivaled program for patent prosecution and commercialization. The Bastille Program shifts the paradigm from paying fees and expenses to a risk-sharing model. We invest in your intellectual property (IP) and share in the revenue generated. We significantly enhance the value of your technology by obtaining the highest-quality patents in key global markets. Your institution always retains ownership of the patents generated by the Program and is never at financial risk. If we successfully commercialize your technology, we both financially benefit; if we are not successful, your institution has no financial exposure but retains first-rate IP. How It Works Fish and Bastille start the process by assessing the patentability and commercial potential of your technology. We will consider technologies at any stage but preferably just after the invention disclosure. We will not accept a technology unless we see a clear path to a commercial market. If the technology is appropriate for the program, we will formalize the relationship in one of two ways. Under one approach, Bastille enters into an exclusive license with your institution for the technology, and Bastille will then engage Fish for patent prosecution. The other approach involves two agreements for your institution one with Fish and another with Bastille. Under either arrangement, Fish and Bastille assume all the financial responsibility for the patent portfolio at the start of the engagement. Next, Fish drafts a patent application to meet your institution s scientific goals and Bastille s commercial strategy. If an international patent application (PCT) or further U.S. applications will enhance the technology s value, we will file those applications as well. We invest heavily on the front end to enhance the value of your technology. After the applications are filed, Bastille works with you to optimize the business strategy for your technology. Fish and Bastille collaborate closely throughout the entire process, using our combined resources and insight to generate significant revenue streams for our clients. Patent Prosecution > More than 5,000 U.S. Patents Filed in 2013 > More than 3,200 Foreign Patents Filed in 2013 > 3,102 U.S. Patents Issued in 2013 > 1,786 Foreign Patents Issued in 2013

5 Patent Portfolio Mining Many academic and research institutions have developed robust patent portfolios that cover a variety of technologies. The maintenance fees alone associated with these portfolios represent a significant financial investment. Despite this investment, many institutions lack the personnel to periodically evaluate these technologies for commercialization. Because of this, each year hundreds of valuable technologies owned by academic and research institutions languish. Fish and Bastille have developed an unparalleled portfolio mining program to evaluate mature patents and unearth hidden gems. We have found that many technologies gain broad acceptance in the commercial markets five, 10, or 15 years after they are granted. Unlike other programs that involve unreliable software evaluation, the Bastille Program has subject matter experts who review each patent individually to assess its commercial potential. Value With No Financial Risk Our patent mining program is a win/win for your institution. Under the program, we spend considerable time reviewing patents individually to: Determine whether the patents cover products or services offered in the U.S. (and in global markets, if you have foreign counterparts) Assess whether a patented technology could apply to products or services as we see the market evolving Identify patents that no longer have commercial application and should be considered for abandonment because the markets have embraced different technologies As in all our programs, your institution remains the patent owner and is never charged for our patent mining service. Instead, we are compensated only if we uncover a valuable technology and successfully commercialize it. How It Works You formalize the relationship by entering into two agreements one with Fish and another with Bastille. These agreements provide that your institution has no financial responsibility for our patent mining services, but that your institution will work with the Bastille Program to commercialize the valuable technologies we uncover. Next, you propose a group of patents for review. The selection of these patents is entirely up to you. We then go to work analyzing each patent. When we find a hidden gem, we create a commercialization strategy for your review and approval. Our strategy is tailored to optimize the value of your technology, and we have the resources and expertise to deliver top-quality results. Your institution retains control throughout the entire process, and we work with you to make sure our strategies align with your goals. Strength in Numbers > More than 300 of our attorneys have advanced degrees in science or technology. Add to that the 75 PhDs on our staff, and you get a law firm with unmatched expertise in virtually every technology area.
