materials and components needed for its 

manufacture. The D0-97 rating may 

not be extended, however, to secure ma- terials included in List A of NPA Reg. 2 nor the materials included in Table I of 

NPA Reg. 4. Nothing in this direction 

shall be construed as relieving any person 

from the obligation of complying with 

such limitations on acquisition or use of 

materials or such other provisions as may 

be contained in any applicable regulation or order of the NPA or with any order 

of any other competent autho_rity. 

SEC. -12. Records to be kept. Each

whether rated or not, and all other relevant data, in sutncient detail to permit an audit that determines for each transaction that the provisions of this direction have been met.\ This does not 

specify any particular accounting 

method and does not require alteration 

of the system of records customarily 

maintained, provided such records disclose the above data and supply an adequate basis for audit. Records may be 

retained in the form of microfilm or other photographic copies instead of the 

originals. All records required by this 

direction shall be made available at the 

usual place of busines where maintained

§ 300.6 Determination of r.ights in 

and to inventions. (al Subject to re- view by the Chairman as provided for in 

this part, each Government agency will 

determine the respective rights of the 

Government and of the inventor in and 

to any invention made by a Government 

employee while under the administrative 

jurisdiction of such agency. 

(b) The following rules shall be applied in determining the respective rights 

of the Government and of the inventor 

in and to any invention that is subject 

to the provisions of this part: 

(1) The Government shall obtain the 

entire domestic ris:..ht, title and interest 

in and to all inventions made by any 

Government employee (i) during working hours, or (ii) with a contribution by 

the Government of facilities, equipment, materials, funds, or information, or of time or services of other Government employees on official duty, or (iii) 

which bear a direct relation to or are made in consequence of the official duties 

of the. inventor. 

(2) In any case where the contribution of the Government, as measured by 

any one or more of the criteria set forth 

in subparagraph (1) of this paragraph, 

to the invention is insufficient equitably 

to justify a requirement. of assignment 

to the Government of the entire domestic right, title, and interest· in and to 

such invention, or in any case where 

the Government has insufficient interest 

in an invention to obtain the entire domestic right, title, and interest therein 

<although ·the Government could obtain same under subparagraph (1) of this 

paragraph), the Government agency con- cerned, subject to the approval of the 

Chairman, shall leave title to such invention in the employee, subject, however, to the reservation to the .Government of a nonexclusive, irrevocable, 

royalty-free license in the invention with 

power to grant licenses for all governmental purposes, such reservation, in the 

terms thereof, to appear, where pracRULES AND REGUl.ATIONS 

ticable, in any patent, domestic or foreign, which may issue on such invention. 

(3 > In applying the provisions of subparagraphs (1) and (2) of this paragraph to the facts and circumstances 

relating to the making of any particular 

invention, it shall be presumed that an . invention made by an employee who is 

employed or assigned (i) to invent or improve or perfect any art, machine, man- ufacture, or composition of matter, (ii) 

to conduct or perform research, development work, or both, (iii) to supervise, 

direct, coordinate, or review Government financed or conducted research, 

development work, or both, or (iv) to act 

in a liaison capacity among governmental or non-governmental agencies or individuals engaged in such work, falls 

within the provisions of subparagraph 

(1) of this paragraph, and it shall be 

presumed that any invention made by · any other employee falls within the provisions of subparagraph (2) of this paragraph. Either presumption may be re- butted by the facts or cfrcumstances . attendant upon the conditions under 

which any partfoular invention is made 

and notwithstanding the foregoing, 

shail not preclude a determination that 

the invention falls within the provisions 

of subparagraph (4) of this paragraph. 

(4) In any case wherein the Government neither (il obtains the entire domestic right, title and interest in and to an invention pursuant to the provisions 

of subparagraph (1) of this paragraph nor (ii) reserves a nonexclusive, irrevocable, royalty-free license in the invention. with power to grant licenses for 

all governmental purposes. pursuant to 

the provisions of subparagraph (2) of 

this paragraph, the Government ·shall 

leave the entire right, title and interest 

in and to the invention in the Government employee, subject to law. 

<cl In the event that a Government 

agency determines, pursuant to subparagraph (2) or subparagraph (4) of paragraph Cl.)) of this section, that title to an invention will be left with an employee, 

the agency shall, subject to considerations of national security, or public
