Notice Pursuant to the National Cooperative Research and
Production Act of 1993--Corporation for Open Systems International
Notice is hereby given that, on June 21, 1995, pursuant to Section
6(a) of the National Cooperative Research and Production Act of 1993,
15 U.S.C. 4301 et seq. (``the Act''), Corporation for Open Systems
International (``COS'') has filed written notifications simultaneously
with the Attorney General and the Federal Trade Commission reflecting
changes in certain existing COS Executive Interest Groups (``EIGS'')
and the termination of an EIG. The notifications were filed for the
purpose of extending the Act's provisions limiting the recovery of
antitrust plaintiffs to actual damages under specified circumstances.
There are changes in three EIGS. First, the changes in the
organizations participating in SONET Interoperability Forum (``The
Forum''), an existing COS EIG, are as follows: Motorola, Inc.,
currently a COS member, became a member of The Forum, effective March
31, 1995; SunSoft, a division of Sun Microsystems, Mountain View, CA,
became an Associate of The forum, effective May 17, 1995; Retix, an
Associate of the Forum, transferred its membership to its subsidiary,
Telegenics, Santa Monica, CA, effective April 19, 1995. Second, AT&T, a
current COS member, became a member of Digital Video Home Terminal DVHT
EIG, effective April 16, 1995. Third, the X.500 Integration Pilot
Project, which was a COS EIG, was completed and terminated effective
March 31, 1995.
No other changes have been made in either the membership or planned
activity of COS. Membership in COS remains open, and COS intends to
file additional written notifications disclosing all changes in
membership.
On May 14, 1986, COS filed its original notification pursuant to
Section 6(a) of the Act. The Department of Justice published a notice
in the Federal Register pursuant to Section 6(b) of the Act on June 11,
1986 (51 FR 21260).
The last notification was filed with the Department on March 31,
1995. A notice was published in the Federal Register pursuant to
Section 6(b) of the Act on June 28, 1995 (60 FR 33431).
