It looks as though it was written for QUALCOMM. Enjoyable reading.

The intention of the GSM Guild was to pool property to form a cartel with exclusionary royalties of 16%. The original property pooling trusts over a century ago were to do just that and they got the anti-trust laws brought to bear.

<The Agencies will not generally
assess the reasonableness of
royalties set by a pool. The focus of
the Agencies’ analysis is on the
pool’s formation and whether its
structure would likely enable pool
participants to impair competition.

The various aspects of QUALCOMM's licensing all seem to be very well within the bounds of the principles given.
