The SASB approved the addition of the following text as a new subclause in the IEEE SA Standards Board Operations Manual, subject to review by the IEEE SA BOG for consistency with the BOG Resolution that relates to the same subject matter:
6.3.6 Interaction of Accepted LOAs under different versions of the IEEE SA patent policy
Where there is one Submitter of an Accepted LOA under the version of the IEEE SA Standards Board Bylaws as they existed from 15 March 2015 through 31 December 2022 [“2015 Accepted LOA Submitter”] and another Submitter of an Accepted LOA for the same IEEE standard under either a subsequent policy or using the Custom LOA Form Dated 13 June 2019 – Limited [“Other Accepted LOA Submitter”], then in that specific circumstance, and except as otherwise not permitted by law, the 2015 Accepted LOA Submitter may choose to have its Accepted LOA governed by the same patent policy provisions as govern the Accepted LOA of the Other Accepted LOA Submitter with respect to the right to seek a Prohibitive Order against the Other Accepted LOA Submitter.
