Following discussions and exchanges between the Parties, they have decided by mutual agreement to remove from the AGREEMENT the patent family based on priority application FR95/09587 filed on August 7, 1995 and awarded on October 10, 1997, titled “Insertion gene cellule eucaryote”.

The Parties agree by this Amendment no. 4 to modify Schedule A of the AGREEMENT and the definition of the “AGREEMENT PATENTS” stated in Article 1.2 of the AGREEMENT.


It is thus agreed as follows:

ARTICLE 1

The Parties agree that Schedule A of this Amendment no. 4 replaces Schedule A of the AGREEMENT.

The Parties agree that in this Amendment no. 4, French patent no. 9509587, awarded on October 10, 1997, is excluded from the definition of the “AGREEMENT PATENTS” stated in article 1.2 of the AGREEMENT.

The AGREEMENT PATENTS are hereby defined as follows:

 

  U.S. patent application Serial No. 07/879,689 filed on May 5, 1992 in the names of IP and UPMC, titled “Nucleotide sequence encoding the enzyme I-SceI and the uses thereof”, American patent no. 5830729 awarded on November 3, 1998, any divisional applications, “continuing” applications or reissue applications made on the basis of the patents and patent applications cited above, including the PCT extension of this application, published under no. WO 96 14 408, and patents and patent applications that may result from them, which are listed in Schedule A of this AGREEMENT, and the corresponding awarded patents which will be automatically added to SCHEDULE A of this AGREEMENT.

 

  U.S. patent application Serial No. 634,192 filed on April 18, 1996 in the names of IP, IC and CNRS, which has never been extended abroad, and which gave rise to US patent no. 5 830 729 awarded on November 3, 1998, any divisional applications, “continuing” applications or re-issue applications filed on the basis of the patent application cited above, and

 

  U.S. patent application no. US 275,638 filed on March 15, 2001 and titled “characterization of the I-SpomI Endonuclease from fission yeast”, including the PCT extension of this application, published under no. WO 02/074965, the patents and patent applications resulting from it, any patent application claiming priority over one of the aforementioned applications, any divisional applications, “continuing” applications or re-issue applications filed on the basis of the patents and patent applications cited above.

ARTICLE 2

2.1 All other provisions of the AGREEMENT shall remain unchanged and fully applicable between the Parties.
