Step 2 Deduct fifteen percent (15%) from adjusted income. This deduction is directed toward covering the expenses (excluding patent expenses) for administering the System Intellectual Property Office.

Step 3 Distribute the remaining adjusted income as follows:

  • Fifty percent (50%) to the inventor. In case of multiple inventorship, the inventors will mutually agree among themselves on the distribution of this portion of the income. (See Guaranteed Minimum to Inventor(s), below.)
  • Fifty percent (50%) to the System component.
