Licensing  
Patent License and Patent Marketing Rights Granted to the RTC
  RTC has obtained the licensing and marketing rights to a health care patent portfolio in retail telemedicine (E-Visit and/or Web-Visit  technology) where various retailers (retail stores, insurance companies, web developers and/or kiosk owners) act as the financial middleman between doctors and patients having E-Visit consultations via the Internet

The recent industry-wide acceptance of this technology makes non-exclusive licensing a sensible, cost-effective way to allow broad use of the technology while simultaneously preserving our rights and our rural health care mission.

For those companies who are now incorporating E-Visits or plan to incorporate E-Visits into its product line,  we are offering an excellent opportunity to participate in our Volunteer Licensing Program while we still have control of this technology. Subject to any licenses that we grant, we are scheduled to relinquish control of this technology on September 15, 2010.

RTC has a license to develop and use this technology. For the benefit of our rural health care initiative, RTC has also been given a temporary opportunity to further license this technology on a non-exclusive, non-discriminatory basis with very fair, simple and non-invasive terms. We are now extending invitations to participate in our Voluntary Licensing Program.

To advance that goal, until September 15, 2010 we are offering Voluntary Licensees the opportunity to license this technology for a one-time licensing fee. Licenses are offered on a non-exclusive, non-discriminatory, fully paid-up basis and will provide an irrevocable Patent License for a Licensee's services and activities in the fields of E-Visits and telehealth services. For example, the patients, hospitals, clinics, doctors, nurses, health care providers, retailers, pharmacies, representatives, customers, and other participants in the Licensee's services and activities shall be licensed under the Licensed Patents for their services and activities while conducting Licensee's business.

RTC has the exclusive right to market this patent and the portfolio to the benefit of our organization via this Voluntary Licensing Program. A license to this technology may offer a company significant commercial advantages in the market in the coming years, as well as past, present and future patent protection. A Voluntary License offers broad, permanent and cost effective protection as a firm moves forward with various online care initiatives. At a minimum, a license to this technology will allow a company  the freedom to conduct E-Visits and online consultations on its own terms, using whatever technology or technology vendor they choose.

RTC’s License to market this technology will expire on September 15, 2010. Thereafter, our organization will not be able to benefit from the licensing process and the terms are very likely to change.

Upon request will send our standard term sheet and a draft License Agreement. Since our offering is voluntary, a request for this information will not be deemed as an admission of past, present or future infringement, but as a good faith exercise in a mutual quest for “patent peace”.
