1972] UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS 135 participation which he otherwise would have received. The University has maintained the arrangement was an appropriate method of providing additional research facilities for the PLATO System and for enhancing returns from the PLATO patent. There have been negotiations and various proposals considered. It is now proposed that, in order to settle the conflicting claims, the Board authorize the distribution to the inventor of 25 per cent of the net income hereafter received by the Foundation on the PLATO patent from all sources until the Foundation has received net income on the PLATO patent attributable to royalties on 40,000 terminals, and thereafter the inventor shall receive 15 per cent of the Foundation's net income from the patent, as originally authorized. If option payments or prepayments (as opposed to royalties) on the PLATO patent are made to the Foundation's servicing agent, they shall be deemed to represent payments attributable to royalties on one terminal unit for each $32.50 of such payment and shall be credited against the 40,000 terminal units covered by the settlement, and the 25 per cent for the inventor shall be computed against the Foundation's share (60 per cent) thereof. The President recommends, with the concurrence of the Vice President for Financial Affairs, that the settlement arrangement as proposed be approved. On motion of Mr. Hahn, this recommendation was approved by the following vote: Aye, Mr. Forsyth, Mr. Hahn, Mr. Howard, Mr. Hughes, Mr. Pogue, Mr. Steger, Mr. Swain; no, none; absent, Dr. Bakalis, Mr. Neal, Governor Ogilvie.
