19. The vicious circle of bifurcation Increase need to reach cross licence with non-EU competitors Pay higher royalties to non-EU competitors Reduced cash available for R&D in Europe Fewer EP patents than non-EU competitors Increased risk of business disrupting injunction compared to non-EU based competitors

20. Result Ultimately EU-based hi-tech business less able to compete with non-EU competitors, as they will become net payers of royalties International companies: relocate factories/distribution hubs to Asia/US Domestic companies: don’t grow as fast, or fail  Fewer jobs/less investment in Europe

21. Bifurcation: bad for business European ^ But really rather good for our competitors!
