12/18 The terms of their settlement include the grant by the TPL Group of rights under the Moore Microprocessor Patent Portfolio 12/18 Information applicable to this settlement will be included in those reports 2/25 Forty global companies from the US, Europe, Japan, Korea and Taiwan have licensed the MMP Portfolio technologies, including many industry leaders such as Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, Kenwood, Nokia, Philips, Sony and Toshiba. 10Q which fully reflects the financial results of all transactions announced prior to the end of January 2008. I’m thinking that the court settlement was separated from licensing in order to avoid asking judge Ward for any more time. The court settlement $ was what is was (Attorney Fees? NECA only?) and after the 10Q the trading restrictions came off. But the grant of a license was perhaps a temporary license until they could figure out how much the permanent licenses should be. Here we can assume the MOU was an agreement to obtain a license, probably spelling out how much per unit. But total units needed to be aggregated. Perhaps independent lab doing the work. I’m thinking TPL really may not have had a clue as to how much to demand for Toshiba and JVC licenses. Remember Toshiba's late doc dump in Japanese? A separation of the court case from the licensing event makes total sense to me. TPL provides temporary licenses on interim basis. Then financial impact of the settlement will be included in the 10Q. And it was. Then on 2/25, with the Mattel pr, it is noted that Toshiba is a licensee. Now if licenses were not issued until late Feb, the payments probably would not have made it into the current 10Q. And hence the prior to the end of January statement in the last 10 Q makes sense. Toshiba late Feb license, payment not yet received. JVC? The Markman results. Turley 10’s millions statement 7 days before settlement. The Phillips signing just prior to the first stay for the purpose of settlement. Only the Js initially asking for more time. There is absolutely nothing in the historical record that would lead one to believe the settlement would not be in TPL/PTSC’s favor. Doubt only enters after the 10Q and the wording of post settlement prs. While accurate, perhaps they are not telling the entire story. Wouldn’t it have been quite logical to separate the court settlement from the licensing in order to avoid Ward’s wrath for not getting it done after 2 stays? And as a result, the settlement with Toshiba and JVC is a business resolution with an MOU (method for determining what license will cost?) becomes a part of the settlement. Seems like everything fits. I’m wondering if TPL may have the OK to provide information to downstream uses willing to sign NDAs which would be costly if breached. How the heck did they get RIM? While TPL may have caved on a number of superfluous things, I very much doubt they would be willing to see licensing come to a halt, so they absolutely needed something to offer/show potential licensees. But I further suspect that competitors of the J2.5 fall into a different category. OK, there you have it. Your job, should you choose to accept it, is to turn this inside out, upside down, and every which way in order to find those pesky little holes in my novelette. All IMHO and GLTA Opty
