Notice of Prospective Extension of Exclusive Patent License
This is notice in accordance with 35 U.S.C. 209 (c)(1) and (d) and
37 CFR 404.7 (a)(1)(i) and (b)(1)(i) that the National Technical
Information Service (NTIS), U.S. Department of Commerce, is
contemplating extending its grant of an exclusive license in the United
States of America and certain foreign countries to practice the
inventions embodied in U.S. Patent Nos. 4,311,826 (Ser. No. 6-085,450)
and 4,391,969 (Ser. No. 6-266,484) to Martin Resources, Inc., having a
place of business in Kilgore, Texas. The patent rights in these
inventions have been assigned to the United States of America.
The prospective extension of the exclusive license will include
royalty terms and will comply with the terms and conditions of 35
U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7. The prospective exclusive license
extension may be granted unless, within 60 days from the date of this
published notice, NTIS receives written evidence and argument which
establishes that the grant of the license would not be consistent with
the requirements of 35 U.S.C. 209 and 37 CFR 404.7.
The respective inventions expressed in the patents cited above
describe: (1) A modified sulfur cement comprising the polymeric
reaction product of elemental sulfur and a cyclopentadiene oligomer
containing reactant; cement compositions can be formulated by blending
an aggregate material with the modified sulfur cement; and (2) a
modified sulfur cement formulation, comprising the polymeric reaction
product of sulfur with a cyclopentadiene oligomerdicyclopentadiene
containing modifier in which the cyclopentadiene oligomer content of
said modifier is at least 37 wt. %, the sulfur cement product having a
softening point ranging up to 116 deg.C.
The availability of the inventions for licensing were published in
Federal Register notices on April 27, 1982, Vol. 47, No. 81, p. 18019
and October 16, 1985, Vol. 50, No. 200, p. 41931, the latter in the
form of a notice of ``intent to grant a license.'' Copies of the
instant U.S. patents are available from the Commissioner of Patents and
Trademarks, Box 9, Washington, DC at a cost of $3.00 each.
Any inquiries and comments relating to the contemplated license
must be submitted to Neil L. Mark, Office of Federal Patent Licensing,
NTIS, Box 1423, Springfield, Virginia 22151. Properly filed competing
license applications received by the NTIS in response to this notice
will be considered as objections to the grant of the contemplated
license.

Director, Office of Federal Patent Licensing.
