report as its primary FMC contact to, Mr.
Adolph M. Quilici, Vice President and Group
Manager, FMC Defense Systems Group.

period.  FMC shall also reimburse Consultant
for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
incurred, requested, or authorized by FMC.
Reimbursements of expenses hereunder will be
made on the basis of itemized statements

Agreement means any invention, discovery,

whether or not patentable, conceived and/or
first actually reduced to practice by

with others, in the course of or as a result
of any work for FMC.  The term "subject data"
as used in this Agreement means any writings,

copyright protection thereon.  Consultant
