            Appeal No. 2004-2226                                                                        
            Application NO. 10/066,421                                                                  

            affirmance is deferred until conclusion of the prosecution before                           
            the examiner unless, as a mere incident to the limited                                      
            prosecution, the affirmed rejection is overcome.                                            
                  If the appellants elect prosecution before the examiner and                           
            this does not result in allowance of the application, abandonment                           
            or a second appeal, this case should be returned to the Board of                            
            Patent Appeals and Interferences for final action on the affirmed                           
            rejection, including any timely request for rehearing thereof.                              
                  No time period for taking any subsequent action in                                    
            connection with this appeal may be extended under 37 CFR                                    
            § 1.136(a).
