If applicable, Seller shall comply with the requirements of Section 6002 of the Solid Waste Disposal Act, as amended by the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act. The requirements of Section 6002 include procuring only items designated in guidelines of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) at 40 CFR Part 247 that contain the highest percentage of recovered materials practicable, consistent with maintaining a satisfactory level of competition, where the purchase price of the item exceeds $10,000 or the value of the quantity acquired during the preceding fiscal year exceeded $10,000; procuring solid waste management services in a manner that maximizes energy and resource recovery; and establishing an affirmative procurement program for procurement of recovered materials identified in the EPA guidelines.

4.10 Domestic preferences for procurements (2 CFR 200.322). As appropriate and to the extent consistent with law, Seller should, to the greatest extent practicable, provide a preference for the purchase, acquisition, or use of products, or materials produced in the United States (including but not limited to iron, aluminum, steel, cement, and other manufactured products).

3. Invention Disclosure, Election of Title and Filing of Patent Application by Subcontractor.
   
   1. The Subcontractor will disclose each subject invention to the Awarding Agency through WSU within two months after the inventor discloses it in writing to Subcontractor personnel responsible for patent matters. The disclosure to the agency shall be in the form of a written report and shall identify the contract under which the invention was made and the inventor(s). It shall be sufficiently complete in technical detail to convey a clear understanding to the extent known at the time of the disclosure, of the nature, purpose, operation, and the physical, chemical, biological or electrical characteristics of the invention.

In addition, after disclosure to the agency, the Subcontractor will promptly notify the agency through WSU of the acceptance of any manuscript describing the invention for publication or of any on sale or public use planned by the Subcontractor.
   2. The Subcontractor will elect in writing whether or not to retain title to any such invention by notifying the Awarding Agency through WSU within two years of disclosure to the Awarding Agency. However, in any case where a patent, a printed publication, public use, sale, or other availability to the public has initiated the one year statutory period wherein valid patent protection can still be obtained in the United States, the period for election of title may be shortened by the agency to a date that is no more than 60 days prior to the end of the statutory period.
   3. The Subcontractor will file its initial patent application on a subject invention to which it elects to retain title within one year after election of title or, if earlier, prior to the end of any statutory period wherein valid patent protection can be obtained in the United States after a publication, on sale, or public use. If the Subcontractor files a provisional application as its initial patent application, it shall file a non-provisional application within 10 months of the filing of the provisional application. The Subcontractor will file patent applications in additional countries or international patent offices within either ten months of the first filed patent application or six months from the date permission is granted by the Commissioner of Patents to file foreign patent applications where such filing has been prohibited by a Secrecy Contract.
   4. For any subject invention with Awarding Agency and Subcontractor co-inventors, where the Awarding Agency employing such co-inventor determines that it would be in the interest of the government, pursuant to 35 U.S.C. 207(a)(3), to file an initial patent application on the subject invention, the Awarding Agency employing such co-inventor, at its discretion and in consultation with the Subcontractor, may file such application at its own expense, provided that the Subcontractor retains the ability to elect title pursuant to 35 U.S.C. 202(a).
   5. Requests for extension of the time for disclosure, election, and filing under paragraphs (1), (2), and (3) of this clause may, at the discretion of the Awarding Agency, be granted. When a Subcontractor has requested an extension for filing a non-provisional application after filing a provisional application, a one-year extension will be granted unless the Awarding Agency notifies the Subcontractor within 60 days of receiving the request.
4. Conditions When the Government May Obtain Title. The Subcontractor will convey to the Awarding Agency, upon written request, title to any subject invention –
   
   1. If the Subcontractor fails to disclose or elect title to the subject invention within the times specified in paragraph (c) of this clause, or elects not to retain title.
   2. In those countries in which the Subcontractor fails to file patent applications within the times specified in paragraph (c) of this clause; provided, however, that if the Subcontractor has filed a patent application in a country after the times specified in paragraph (c) of this clause, but prior to its receipt of the written request of the Awarding Agency, the Subcontractor shall continue to retain title in that country.
   3. In any country in which the Subcontractor decides not to continue the prosecution of any non-provisional patent application for, to pay a maintenance, annuity or renewal fee on, or to defend in a reexamination or opposition proceeding on, a patent on a subject invention.
5. Minimum Rights to Subcontractor and Protection of the Subcontractor Right to File.
   
   1. The Subcontractor will retain a nonexclusive royalty-free license throughout the world in each subject invention to which the Government obtains title, except if the Subcontractor fails to disclose the invention within the times specified in (c), above. The Subcontractor's license extends to its domestic subsidiary and affiliates, if any, within the corporate structure of which the Subcontractor is a party and includes the right to grant sublicenses of the same scope to the extent the Subcontractor was legally obligated to do so at the time the contract was awarded. The license is transferable only with the approval of the Awarding Agency except when transferred to the successor of that party of the Subcontractor's business to which the invention pertains.
   2. The Subcontractor's domestic license may be revoked or modified by the funding Awarding Agency to the extent necessary to achieve expeditious practical application of the subject invention pursuant to an application for an exclusive license submitted in accordance with applicable provisions at 37 CFR part 404 and agency licensing regulations (if any). This license will not be revoked in that field of use or the geographical areas in which the Subcontractor has achieved practical application and continues to make the benefits of the invention reasonably accessible to the public. The license in any foreign country may be revoked or modified at the discretion of the funding Awarding Agency to the extent the Subcontractor, its licensees, or the domestic subsidiaries or affiliates have failed to achieve practical application in that foreign country.
   3. Before revocation or modification of the license, the funding Awarding Agency will furnish the Subcontractor a written notice of its intention to revoke or modify the license, and the Subcontractor will be allowed thirty days (or such other time as may be authorized by the funding Awarding Agency for good cause shown by the Subcontractor) after the notice to show cause why the license should not be revoked or modified. The Subcontractor has the right to appeal, in accordance with applicable regulations in 37 CFR part 404 and agency regulations (if any) concerning the licensing of Government-owned inventions, any decision concerning the revocation or modification of the license.
6. Subcontractor Action to Protect the Government's Interest.
   
   1. The Subcontractor agrees to execute or to have executed and promptly deliver to the Awarding Agency all instruments necessary to (i) establish or confirm the rights the Government has throughout the world in those subject inventions to which the Subcontractor elects to retain title, and (ii) convey title to the Awarding Agency when requested under paragraph (d) above and to enable the government to obtain patent protection throughout the world in that subject invention.
   2. The Subcontractor agrees to require, by written agreement, its employees, other than clerical and nontechnical employees, to disclose promptly in writing to personnel identified as responsible for the administration of patent matters and in a format suggested by the Subcontractor each subject invention made under contract in order that the Subcontractor can comply with the disclosure provisions of paragraph (c) of this clause, to assign to the Subcontractor the entire right, title and interest in and to each subject invention made under contract, and to execute all papers necessary to file patent applications on subject inventions and to establish the government's rights in the subject inventions. This disclosure format should require, as a minimum, the information required by paragraph (c)(i) of this clause. The Subcontractor shall instruct such employees through employee agreements or other suitable educational programs on the importance of reporting inventions in sufficient time to permit the filing of patent applications prior to U.S. or foreign statutory bars.
   3. For each subject invention, the Subcontractor will, no less than 60 days prior to the expiration of the statutory deadline, notify the Awarding Agency of any decision: Not to continue the prosecution of a non-provisional patent application; not to pay a maintenance, annuity or renewal fee; not to defend in a reexamination or opposition proceeding on a patent, in any country; to request, be a party to, or take action in a trial proceeding before the Patent Trial and Appeals Board of the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, including but not limited to post-grant review, review of a business method patent, inter partes review, and derivation proceeding; or to request, be a party to, or take action in a non-trial submission of art or information at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, including but not limited to a pre-issuance submission, a post-issuance submission, and supplemental examination.
   4. The Subcontractor agrees to include, within the specification of any United States patent applications and any patent issuing thereon covering a subject invention, the following statement, "This invention was made with government support under (identify the contract) awarded by (identify the Awarding Agency). The government has certain rights in the invention."
   5. The Subcontractor must submit a final report listing all subject inventions made under the award or stating that there were none. The final report is due 90 calendar days after the end date of the period of performance unless you request, and the Awarding Agency grants, an extension of the due date.
7. Subcontracts.
   
   1. The Subcontractor will include this clause, suitably modified to identify the parties, in all subcontracts, regardless of tier, for experimental, developmental or research work to be performed by a sub-subcontractor. The sub-subcontractor will retain all rights provided for the Subcontractor in this clause, and the Subcontractor will not, as part of the consideration for awarding the subcontract, obtain rights in the sub-subcontractor's subject inventions.
   2. The Subcontractor will include in all other subcontracts, regardless of tier, for experimental developmental or research work the patent rights clause required by (cite section of agency implementing regulations or FAR).
   3. In the case of subcontracts, at any tier, when the prime award with the Awarding Agency was a contract (but not a grant or cooperative agreement), the agency, sub-subcontractor, and the Subcontractor agree that the mutual obligations of the parties created by this clause constitute a contract between the sub-contractor and the Awarding Agency with respect to the matters covered by the clause; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph is intended to confer any jurisdiction under the Contract Disputes Act in connection with proceedings under paragraph (j) of this clause.
8. Reporting on Utilization of Subject Inventions. Reporting on Utilization of Subject Inventions. The Subcontractor agrees to submit on request periodic reports no more frequently than annually on the utilization of a subject invention or on efforts at obtaining such utilization that are being made by the Subcontractor or its licensees or assignees. Such reports shall include information regarding the status of development, date of first commercial sale or use, gross royalties received by the Subcontractor, and such other data and information as the agency may reasonably specify. The Subcontractor also agrees to provide additional reports as may be requested by the agency in connection with any march-in proceeding undertaken by the agency in accordance with paragraph (j) of this clause. As required by 35 U.S.C. 202(c)(5), the agency agrees it will not disclose such information to persons outside the government without permission of the Subcontractor.
9. Preference for United States Industry. Preference for United States Industry. Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause, the Subcontractor agrees that neither it nor any assignee will grant to any person the exclusive right to use or sell any subject inventions in the United States unless such person agrees that any products embodying the subject invention or produced through the use of the subject invention will be manufactured substantially in the United States. However, in individual cases, the requirement for such an agreement may be waived by the Awarding Agency upon a showing by the Subcontractor or its assignee that reasonable but unsuccessful efforts have been made to grant licenses on similar terms to potential licensees that would be likely to manufacture substantially in the United States or that under the circumstances domestic manufacture is not commercially feasible.
10. March-in Rights. The Subcontractor agrees that with respect to any subject invention in which it has acquired title, the Awarding Agency has the right in accordance with the procedures in 37 CFR 401.6 and any supplemental regulations of the agency to require the Subcontractor, an assignee or exclusive licensee of a subject invention to grant a nonexclusive, partially exclusive, or exclusive license in any field of use to a responsible applicant or applicants, upon terms that are reasonable under the circumstances, and if the Subcontractor, assignee, or exclusive licensee refuses such a request the Awarding Agency has the right to grant such a license itself if the Awarding Agency determines that:
    
    1. Such action is necessary because the Subcontractor or assignee has not taken, or is not expected to take within a reasonable time, effective steps to achieve practical application of the subject invention in such field of use.
    2. Such action is necessary to alleviate health or safety needs which are not reasonably
    3. satisfied by the Subcontractor, assignee or their licensees;
    4. Such action is necessary to meet requirements for public use specified by Federal regulations and such requirements are not reasonably satisfied by the Subcontractor, assignee or licensees; or
    5. Such action is necessary because the agreement required by paragraph (i) of this clause has not been obtained or waived or because a licensee of the exclusive right to use or sell any subject invention in the United States is in breach of such agreement.
11. Special Provisions for Contracts with Nonprofit Organizations. If the Subcontractor is a nonprofit organization, it agrees that:
    
    
    1. Rights to a subject invention in the United States may not be assigned without the approval of the Awarding Agency, except where such assignment is made to an organization which has as one of its primary functions the management of inventions, provided that such assignee will be subject to the same provisions as the Subcontractor;
    2. The Subcontractor will share royalties collected on a subject invention with the inventor, including Federal employee co-inventors (when the agency deems it appropriate) when the subject invention is assigned in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 202(e) and 37 CFR 401.10;
    3. The balance of any royalties or income earned by the Subcontractor with respect to subject inventions, after payment of expenses (including payments to inventors) incidental to the administration of subject inventions, will be utilized for the support of scientific research or education; and
    4. It will make efforts that are reasonable under the circumstances to attract licensees of subject inventions that are small business firms and that it will give a preference to a small business firm when licensing a subject invention if the Subcontractor determines that the small business firm has a plan or proposal for marketing the invention which, if executed, is equally as likely to bring the invention to practical application as any plans or proposals from applicants that are not small business firms; provided, that the Subcontractor is also satisfied that the small business firm has the capability and resources to carry out its plan or proposal. The decision whether to give a preference in any specific case will be at the discretion of the Subcontractor. However, the Subcontractor agrees that the Awarding Agency may review the Subcontractor's licensing program and decisions regarding small business applicants, and the Subcontractor will negotiate changes to its licensing policies, procedures, or practices with the Awarding Agency when the Awarding Agency's review discloses that the Subcontractor could take reasonable steps to implement more effectively the requirements of this paragraph (k)(4). In accordance with 37 CFR 401.7, the Awarding Agency or the Subcontractor may request that the Secretary review the Subcontractor's licensing program and decisions regarding small business applicants.
