Accu-Chek Softclix and Accu-Chek Softclix XL lancets (US Patents 4,924,879 and Re. 35,803). Similar patent protection also

exists in other countries, especially through European Patents 0565970, 0782838 and Japanese Patent 2702374. Your

purchase entitles you to use your Accu-Chek Softclix Plus lancing device in combination with Accu-Chek Softclix and

Accu-Chek Softclix XL lancets. As required by statute, Roche will refrain from pursuing its patent rights against private persons

using the Accu-Chek Softclix Plus lancing device in combination with lancets from other manufacturers for non-commercial

purposes. Acquisition of the Accu-Chek Softclix Plus lancing device is not associated, other than through the aforementioned

statutory limitation on the effect of the patent, with any entitlement and in particular with any tacit permission for the acquirer

to use third-party lancets. Roche reserves the right to assert its patent rights against any manufacturer offering lancets for the

Accu-Chek Softclix Plus lancing device.
