Cisco is the owner of US Patent Application Serial Nos. 13/863,013 and 61/763,224 relating
to the subject matter of "Carrying Metadata in IP Networks" .

If technology in this document is included in a standard adopted by IETF and any claims of
any Cisco patents are necessary for practicing the standard, any party will have the right
to use any such patent claims under reasonable, non-discriminatory terms, with
reciprocity, to implement and fully comply with the standard.

The reasonable non-discriminatory terms are:

If this standard is adopted, Cisco will not assert any patents owned or controlled by
Cisco against any party for making, using, selling, importing or offering for sale a
product that implements the standard, provided, however that Cisco retains the right to
assert its patents (including the right to claim past royalties) against any party that
asserts a patent it owns or controls (either directly or indirectly) against Cisco or any
of Cisco's affiliates or successors in title or against any products of Cisco or any
products of any of Cisco's affiliates either alone or in combination with other products;
and Cisco retains the right to assert its patents against any product or portion thereof
that is not necessary for compliance with the standard.

Royalty-bearing licenses will be available to anyone who prefers that option.
