SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commission instituted this investigation 
on November 3, 2011, based on a complaint filed by Furuno Electric Co., 
Ltd. of Hyogo, Japan and Furuno U.S.A., Inc. of Camas, Washington. 76 
FR 68209 (Nov. 3, 2011). The complaint alleges violations of section 
337 based upon the importation into the United States, the sale for 
importation, and the sale within the United States after importation of 
certain navigation products, components thereof, and related software 
by reason of infringement of certain claims of U.S. Patent Nos. 
6,084,565; 7,095,367; 7,089,094; and 7,161,561. The notice of 
investigation named Honeywell International Inc. of Morristown, New 
Jersey; and Skyforce Avionics Ltd. of West Sussex, United Kingdom as 
respondents.
    On February 14, 2012, the ALJ issued the subject ID, granting a 
joint motion by all of the parties to terminate the investigation. The 
ALJ found that the settlement agreement complies with the requirements 
of Commission Rule 210.21(b) (19 CFR 210.21(b)) and that terminating 
the investigation would not be contrary to the public interest. None of 
the parties petitioned for review of the ID.
    The Commission has determined not to review the ID. Accordingly, 
this investigation is terminated in its entirety.
    The authority for the Commission's determination is contained in 
section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and 
in section 210.42 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure 
(19 CFR 210.42).

    Issued: March 13, 2012.

    By order of the Commission.
James R. Holbein,
Secretary to the Commission.
