adverse effects on the licensee, except for those restrictions
appropriate and ancillary to cooperative arrangements such
as co-operative research arrangements;

reference to the licensor’s name, trade marks, trade names
or other identifying items;
(s) impose confidentiality after the expiry of the licence
agreement or to impose unreasonably long periods for
