Example 4.<br />

[22] = 04/06/1996, thus use Rule 2. Earliest related application + 20 years = 04/08/2009.<br />

Thus full-term expiry is 04/08/2009.<br />

Example 5.<br />

[64] = Reissue of <strong>US</strong>4943590, thus full-term expiry of <strong>US</strong>RE34712 is identical to the full-term expiry<br />

of <strong>US</strong>4943590. To calculate the full-term expiry of <strong>US</strong>4943590, refer to the front page of the patent<br />

directly.
