The Oslo court ordered Biomar to pay compensation and legal costs totalling NOK23 million for patent infringements and breaches of the business code of conduct, ruling that Biomar produced a direct copy based on a sample of STIM\u2019s feed.<\/p>\n
STIM now argues that Biomar is responsible for indirect infringements by fish farmers that are using this feed during the SuperSmolt process when the feed is used in combination with added PVCR modulators. \u201cThe court does not doubt that Biomar knows that it is probable that fish farmers with RAS facilities will use the feed together with the addition of Calcium in said quantities [STIM\u2019s translation],\u201d said the court ruling.<\/p>\n
\u201cBiomar\u00b4s knowledge is substantiated by the fact that Biomar, on customer request, has signed declarations of indemnification where the company assumes economic responsibility on behalf of at least three fish farmers for the instance that using Biomar\u00b4s product will infringe on STIM\u00b4s patent rights,\u201d it continued.<\/p>\n
STIM chief executive, Jim-Roger Nordly, said that it was obvious that Biomar knew exactly what it was doing. \u201cThey are willing to hide behind fish farmers on this issue,\u201d he said. \u201cI believe Oslo District Court also shared this view.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
