Extract to table

This outcome is, in the assessment of the undersigned counsel, catastrophic for the Company's competitive position and must be avoided

Based on the analysis set forth herein, we strongly recommend that, at minimum, Applications A1 and B1 must be prioritized for immediate reactivation

Abandonment must be avoided under all circumstances

The divisional must be filed while B1 remains pending; there is no independent statutory deadline for B2 beyond the pendency of B1

Under Japanese patent law, an examination request must be filed within three years of the PCT international filing date (January 9, 2023) to avoid deemed withdrawal
