German translation: beinhaltet im wesentlichen die Merkmale von ...

English to German translations [PRO]
Law/Patents - Patents
English term or phrase: read on
This may seem like such a stupid question, but I am really having trouble understanding what is meant here... Of course, I know the word read, but "lesen" definitely does not fit here.

This is actually from a clinical study agreement, from the section in inventions. The sentence says:
"Principal Investigator and INSTITUTION agree to disclose and assign to SPONSOR any and all Inventions made in the performance of the duties contemplated herein (...) which (...) read on SPONSOR patents"

Any ideas/help would be much appreciated! Thanks!
