SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of the Air Force may grant 
the prospective license unless a timely objection is received that 
sufficiently shows the grant of the license would be inconsistent with 
the Bayh-Dole Act or implementing regulations. A competing application 
for a patent license agreement, completed in compliance with 37 CFR 
404.8 and received by the Air Force within the period for timely 
objections, will be treated as an objection and may be considered as an 
alternative to the proposed license.
