OASIS requests that any OASIS Party or any other party that believes it has patent claims that would necessarily be infringed
by implementations of this OASIS Committee Specification or OASIS Standard, to notify OASIS TC Administrator and provide
an indication of its willingness to grant patent licenses to such patent claims in a manner consistent with the IPR Mode of
the OASIS Technical Committee that produced this specification.
OASIS invites any party to contact the OASIS TC Administrator if it is aware of a claim of ownership of any patent claims
that would necessarily be infringed by implementations of this specification by a patent holder that is not willing to provide
a license to such patent claims in a manner consistent with the IPR Mode of the OASIS Technical Committee that produced
this specification. OASIS may include such claims on its website, but disclaims any obligation to do so.
OASIS takes no position regarding the validity or scope of any intellectual property or other rights that might be claimed to
pertain to the implementation or use of the technology described in this document or the extent to which any license under
such rights might or might not be available; neither does it represent that it has made any effort to identify any such
rights. Information on OASIS' procedures with respect to rights in any document or deliverable produced by an OASIS
Technical Committee can be found on the OASIS website. Copies of claims of rights made available for publication and
any assurances of licenses to be made available, or the result of an attempt made to obtain a general license or permission
for the use of such proprietary rights by implementers or users of this OASIS Committee Specification or OASIS Standard, can
be obtained from the OASIS TC Administrator. OASIS makes no representation that any information or list of intellectual
property rights will at any time be complete, or that any claims in such list are, in fact, Essential Claims.
