Example 7.<br />
[22] = 10/01/2002, thus use Rule 2. Earliest related application + 20 years = 18/03/2011.<br />
Note: ‘Related U.S. Application Data’ is listed at INID code 60.<br />
Note there is no asterisk (*) near the grant issue date [45], however there is an asterisk on the front<br />
page published below the ‘Assignee’ information (INID code 73) indicating PTA of 334 days is<br />
applicable.<br />
Upon inspection of the PTA for this record in PAIR, it is confirmed that the PTA is 334 days (see<br />
Appendix 1).<br />
Thus full-term expiry is 18/03/2011 plus 334 days PTA = 15/02/2012.
