和解协议验证专利,设定重要市场价值;继续对剩余被告提起诉讼,向所有侵权公用事业公司发出法律通知
Corsicana, Texas--(Newsfile Corp. - November 20, 2023) - Midwest Energy Emissions Corp. (TSXV: MEEC) (OTCQB: MEEC) ("ME2C Environmental" or the "Company"), a leading environmental technologies firm, issued a statement today on the recently announced patent litigation settlement with certain defendants.
德克萨斯州科西卡纳--(Newsfile Corp.,2023 年 11 月 20 日)-中西部能源排放公司(多伦多证券交易所股票代码:MEEC)(OTCQB:MEEC)(“我2领先的环境技术公司C Environmental” 或 “公司”)今天就最近宣布的与某些被告达成的专利诉讼和解协议发表声明。
Richard MacPherson, Chief Executive Officer of ME2C Environmental stated, "We are extremely pleased that we have been able to resolve this patent litigation with many of the defendants which action we commenced in 2019. We will continue with the litigation against the remaining defendants with a trial date to be rescheduled by the Court. As part of the settlements announced last week, one of the defendants has entered into a license agreement based on a rate of $1.00 per ton of accused coal sold during the applicable damages period which we believe establishes a proper base line in our efforts against infringers."
理查德·麦克弗森,ME 首席执行官2C Environmental表示:“我们非常高兴能够与许多被告一起解决这起专利诉讼,我们于2019年提起了诉讼。我们将继续对其余被告提起诉讼,审判日期将由法院重新安排。作为上周宣布的和解协议的一部分,其中一名被告签订了许可协议,其费率为在适用的损害赔偿期内每售出一吨被指控的煤炭1.00美元,我们认为这为我们打击侵权者奠定了适当的基准。”
"Given recent successful reinforcement of our patented position, we anticipate further discussions with all coal-fired utilities operating our patented process," continued MacPherson. "The settlements thus far only pertain to the "refined coal" operations and do not cover ongoing use of our patented technologies since the end of the refined coal program. We will be seeking resolution with any and all utilities that continue to operate our patented two-part process outside of a license or supply agreement. We will continue to protect our patent claims against the remaining defendants when our trial continues in early 2024."
麦克弗森继续说:“鉴于最近成功巩固了我们的专利地位,我们预计将与所有运营我们专利工艺的燃煤公用事业公司进行进一步的讨论。”“到目前为止,和解协议仅涉及'精炼煤'业务,不包括自精炼煤计划结束以来我们专利技术的持续使用。我们将寻求所有在许可或供应协议之外继续使用我们由两部分组成的专利流程的公用事业公司的解决方案。当我们的审判在2024年初继续进行时,我们将继续保护我们的专利主张,使其免受其余被告的侵害。”
