Extension of the Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program between the USPTO and the UKIPO
	  Extension of the Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program
			between the USPTO and the UKIPO

   On September 4, 2007, the United States Patent and Trademark Office
(USPTO) commenced a Patent Prosecution Highway pilot program (PPH) which
enabled an applicant whose claims have been determined allowable/patentable
in an application filed in the United Kingdom Intellectual Property Office
(UKIPO) to have the corresponding application filed in the USPTO be
advanced out of turn for examination. See notice entitled "Patent
Prosecution Highway Pilot Program between the United States Patent and
Trademark Office and the United Kingdom Intellectual Property Office," 1322
Off. Gaz. Pat. Office 258 (September 25, 2007). The USPTO indicated that
the pilot program would last for a period of one year ending on September
4, 2008, but may be extended for an additional time period thereafter.

   The requirements of the PPH pilot program were modified on January 28,
2008 to permit certain applications based on PCT filings to qualify for
participation in the PPH pilot program (the September 25, 2007 notice
excluded PCT applications). See notice entitled "Revised Requirements for
Requesting Participation in the Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program in
the USPTO (Between the USPTO and the UKIPO)," 1327 Off. Gaz. Pat. Office 54
(February 5, 2008).  In view of this recent modification, the USPTO has
decided to extend the PPH pilot program until further notice. The USPTO and
UKIPO will evaluate the results of the pilot program periodically to
determine whether and how the program should be fully implemented at a
later date.

Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program between the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the Danish Patent and Trademark Office
	     Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program between the
	      United States Patent and Trademark Office and the
		      Danish Patent and Trademark Office

I. Background

   The United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) has established a
21st Century Strategic Plan to transform the USPTO into a more
quality-focused, highly productive, responsive organization supporting a
market-driven intellectual property system. One of the specific action
items of the 21st Century Strategic Plan is to share search results with
other intellectual property offices. By relying on the search results
obtained via partnerships with other intellectual property offices, the
USPTO can reduce duplication of efforts and decrease workload.

   From July 2006 to January 2008, the USPTO partnered with the Japan
Patent Office (JPO) to establish the first Patent Prosecution Highway pilot
program (PPH). The PPH leverages accelerated examination procedures already
available in both offices to allow applicants in both offices to obtain
corresponding patents faster and more efficiently. The PPH also permits
each office to benefit from the work previously done by the other office,
in turn helping to reduce workload and improve patent quality.  The USPTO
and the JPO began full implementation of the PPH program starting January
4, 2008.

   USPTO has also commenced separate PPH pilot programs with the United
Kingdom Intellectual Property Office (UK IPO), the Canadian Intellectual
Property Office (CIPO), the Korean Intellectual Property Office (KIPO), IP
Australia (IPAU), and the European Patent Office (EPO) based on the same or
similar framework as the PPH between the USPTO and JPO.

   Following on these partnerships, the USPTO and the Danish Patent and
Trademark Office (DKPTO) have agreed to launch a PPH pilot program similar
to the PPH pilot programs noted above.

II. Patent Prosecution Highway Pilot Program

   The PPH was established to enable an applicant whose claims are
determined to be allowable/patentable in the Office of first filing (OFF)
to have the corresponding application filed in the Office of second filing
(OSF) advanced out of turn for examination while at the same time allowing
the OSF to exploit the search and  examination results of the OFF.

   Where the USPTO is the OFF and the U.S. application contains claims that
are determined to be allowable/patentable, the applicant may request
accelerated examination at DKPTO for the corresponding application filed
with DKPTO as the OSF. The procedures and requirements for filing a request
with DKPTO for participation in the PPH pilot program will be available on
November 3, 2008, from the DKPTO Web site at: http://www.dkpto.org/
business-services/patent-prosecution-highways-(pph).aspx. Where DKPTO is
the OSF, applicant may provide DKPTO with the necessary documents for
requesting participation in the PPH pilot program, or request that DKPTO
obtain the necessary documents for requesting participation in the PPH
pilot program from the USPTO Public PAIR system. In those rare situations
where the U.S. application has not been published, and therefore the U.S.
file wrapper is not available via Public PAIR, applicant will be
responsible for providing the necessary documents to DKPTO.

   Where the USPTO is the OSF and the corresponding application filed with
DKPTO as the OFF contains claims that are determined to be allowable/
patentable, the applicant may request participation in the PPH pilot
program in the USPTO and petition to make the U.S. application special
under the PPH pilot program.  Note that the procedures for a petition to
make special under the accelerated examination program set forth in MPEP
708.02(a) do NOT apply to a petition to make special under the PPH pilot
 November 18, 2008 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1336 OG 151 

program. The procedures and requirements for filing a request in the USPTO
for participation in the PPH pilot program are set forth below.

A. Trial Period for the PPH Pilot Program

   The PPH pilot program will commence on November 3, 2008, for a period of
one year ending on November 3, 2009.  The trial period may be extended for
up to an additional year if necessary to adequately assess the feasibility
of the PPH program. The USPTO and DKPTO will evaluate the results of the
pilot program to determine whether and how the program should be fully
implemented after the trial period. The Offices may also terminate the PPH
pilot program early if the volume of participation exceeds manageable
level, or for any other reason. Notice will be published if the PPH pilot
program will be terminated before the November 3, 2009 date.

B. Requirements for Requesting Participation in the PPH Pilot Program in
the USPTO

   In order to be eligible to participate in the PPH pilot program, the
following conditions must be met:

   (1) The U.S. application is

      (a) a Paris Convention application which either

         (i) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. 119(a) and 37 CFR 1.55
         to one or more applications filed with DKPTO, or

         (ii) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. 119(a)/365(a) to a
         PCT application that contains no priority claims,

      or

      (b) a national stage application under the PCT (an application which
      entered the national stage in the U.S. from a PCT international
      application after compliance with 35 U.S.C. 371), which PCT
      application

         (i) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. 365(b) to an
         application filed with DKPTO, or

         (ii) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. 365(b) to a PCT
         application that contains no priority claims, or

         (iii) contains no priority claim,

      or

      (c) a so-called bypass application filed under 35 U.S.C. 111(a) which
      validly claims benefit under 35 U.S.C. 120 to a PCT application,
      which PCT application

         (i) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. 365(b) to an
         application filed with DKPTO, or

         (ii) validly claims priority under 35 U.S.C. 365(b) to a PCT
         application that contains no priority claims, or

         (iii) contains no priority claim.

Examples of U.S. applications that fall under requirement (1) are:

See the Annex for additional examples.

   The DKPTO application whose claims are determined to be allowable/
patentable does not have to be the application for which priority is
claimed in the USPTO application (the basic application). The DKPTO
application can be an application explicitly derived from the basic
application, e.g., a divisional application of the basic application. Note
that where the DKPTO application that contains the allowable/patentable
claims is not the same application for which priority is claimed in the
U.S. application, applicant must identify the relationship between the
DKPTO application that contains the allowable/patentable claims and the
DKPTO priority application claimed in the U.S. application (e.g., DKPTO
application X that contains the allowable/patentable claims is a divisional
application of DKPTO application Y, which is the priority application
claimed in the U.S. application).

   Provisional applications, plant and design applications, reissue
applications, reexamination proceedings, and applications subject to a
secrecy order are excluded and not subject to participation in the PPH.
 November 18, 2008 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1336 OG 153 


   (2) The DKPTO application(s) have at least one claim that was determined
by the DKPTO to be allowable/patentable.  Applicant must submit a copy of
the allowable/patentable claims from the DKPTO application(s) along with an
English translation thereof and a statement that the English translation is
accurate if the claims are not in the English language. If the DKPTO office
action does not explicitly state that a particular claim is allowable/
patentable, applicant must include a statement in the request for
participation in the PPH pilot program or in the transmittal letter
accompanying the request for participation that no rejection has been made
in the DKPTO office action regarding that claim and, therefore, the claim
is deemed allowable/patentable by DKPTO.

   (3) All the claims in each U.S. application for which a request for
participation in the PPH pilot program is made must sufficiently correspond
or be amended to sufficiently correspond to the allowable/patentable claims
in the DKPTO application(s). Claims will be considered to sufficiently
correspond where, accounting for differences due to translations and claim
format requirements, the claims are of the same or similar scope. Applicant
is also required to submit a claims correspondence table in English. The
claims correspondence table must indicate how all the claims in the U.S.
application correspond to the allowable/patentable claims in the DKPTO
application(s).

   (4) Examination of the U.S. application for which participation in the
PPH pilot program is requested has not begun.

   (5) Applicant must file a request for participation in the PPH pilot
program and a petition to make the U.S. application special under the PPH
pilot program. A sample request/petition form (PTO/SB/20DK) will be
available from the USPTO Web site at http://www.uspto.gov on November 3,
2008. Applicants are encouraged to use the USPTO request/petition form. A
petition fee under 37 CFR 1.17(h) for the petition to make special under 37
CFR 1.102(d) is required and must be submitted.

   (6) Applicant must submit a copy of all the office actions (which are
relevant to patentability) from each of the DKPTO application(s) containing
the allowable/patentable claims that are the basis for the request, along
with an English translation thereof and a statement that the English
translation is accurate if the office actions are not in the English
language. In addition, applicant must submit copies of any office actions
(which are relevant to patentability) from the DKPTO application(s) issued
after the grant of the request for participation in the PPH pilot program
in the USPTO (especially where DKPTO might have reversed a prior holding of
allowability).

   (7) Applicant must submit an information disclosure statement (IDS)
listing the documents cited by the DKPTO examiner in the DKPTO office
action (unless such an IDS has already been filed in the U.S. application).
Applicant must submit copies of all the documents cited in the DKPTO office
action (unless the copies have already been filed in the U.S. application)
except U.S. patents or U.S. patent application publications.

   The request for participation in the PPH pilot program and all the
supporting documents must be submitted to the USPTO via EFS-Web and indexed
with the following document description: "Petition to make special under
Patent Pros Hwy."  Information regarding EFS-Web is available at
http://www.uspto.gov/ebc/efs_help.html. Any preliminary amendments and IDS
submitted with the PPH documents must be separately indexed as a
preliminary amendment and IDS, respectively.

   Where the request for participation in the PPH pilot program and special
status are granted, applicant will be notified and the U.S. application
will be advanced out of turn for examination. In those instances where the
request for participation in the PPH pilot program does not meet all the
requirements set forth above, applicant will be notified and the defects in
 November 18, 2008 US PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE 1336 OG 154 

the request will be identified. Applicant will be given one opportunity to
perfect the request in a renewed request for participation (which must be
submitted via EFS-Web and indexed accordingly as noted above). Note that
action on the application by the examiner will NOT be suspended (37 CFR
1.103) awaiting a reply by the applicant to perfect the request in a
renewed request for participation. That is, if the application is picked up
for examination by the examiner after applicant has been notified of the
defects in the request, any renewed request will be dismissed. If the
renewed request is perfected and examination has not begun, the request and
special status will be granted, applicant will be notified and the U.S.
application will be advanced out of turn for examination. If not perfected,
applicant will be notified and the application will await action in its
regular turn.

   (8) Request for participation in the PPH pilot program and special
status granted in a parent application will not carry over to a continuing
application. Continuing applications must separately fulfill the conditions
set forth above.

   If any of the documents identified in items (2), (6) and (7) above have
already been filed in the U.S. application prior to the request for
participation in the PPH pilot program, it will not be necessary for
applicant to resubmit these documents with the request for participation.
Applicant may simply refer to these documents and indicate in the request
for participation in the PPH pilot program when these documents were
previously filed in the U.S. application.

C.  Special Examining Procedures

   Once the request for participation in the PPH pilot program and special
status have been granted to the U.S. application, the U.S. application will
be taken up for examination by the U.S. examiner before all other
categories of applications except those clearly in condition for allowance,
those with set time limits, such as examiner's answers, and those that have
been granted special status for "accelerated examination."

   Any claims amended or added after the grant of the request for
participation in the PPH pilot program must sufficiently correspond to one
or more allowable/patentable claims in the DKPTO application(s). Applicant
is required to submit a claims correspondence table along with the
amendment (see B.(3) above). If the amended or newly added claims do not
sufficiently correspond to the allowable/patentable claims in the DKPTO
application(s), the amendment will not be entered and will be treated as a
non-responsive reply.

   The PPH program does not absolve applicants of all their duties under 37
CFR 1.56 and 37 CFR 10.18. By complying with requirements (6) and (7)
identified above, applicants would be considered to have complied with
their duties to bring to the attention of the USPTO any material prior art
cited in the corresponding foreign application(s) (see MPEP § 2001.06(a)).
Applicants still have a duty of candor and good faith, including providing
to the USPTO other information known to them to be material to
patentability.

   Any inquiries concerning this notice may be directed to Magdalen
Greenlief, Office of the Deputy Commissioner for Patent Examination Policy,
at 571-272-8800 or at magdalen.greenlief@uspto.gov.
