The licence application provided for in Article L. 623-22-1 shall be made to the judicial court.
The licence is non-exclusive. In particular, the court shall determine its duration, scope and the amount of royalties to which it gives rise. These conditions may be modified by decision of the court, at the request of the holder of the right or licence.
The rights attached to this licence may only be transferred together with the business or part of the business or the goodwill to which they are attached.
Where such a licence is granted, the holder of the obtaining right shall obtain on equitable terms, on application to the court, the grant of a reciprocal licence to use the protected invention.
If the holder of a licence does not comply with the conditions under which the licence was granted, the holder of the plant variety certificate and, where applicable, the other licensees may obtain from the court the withdrawal of that licence.
