                Application 10/372,669                                                                             
                review under 35 U.S.C. §§ 141 or 145 with respect to the affirmed rejection,                       
                the effective date of the 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 C.F.R. § 1.136(a).
