Exerpt from the Letter to Stockholders ...... I assure you that Rambus will vigorously pursue an appeal of the Richmond decision. Though we are a much smaller company than Infineon, we pledge to you that we will devote whatever resources are necessary to defend Rambus’ patents against any company that attempts to take our innovations without compensation. Some of you may be wondering if there is an impact on our other partners who have already signed contracts with Rambus for SDRAM and DDR-SDRAM. From a legal standpoint there is no impact on these contracts and we expect ongoing payment and support from these partners. rambus.com Ö¿Ö
