Jorma caves (big surprise): Nokia and Qualcomm Expand License Agreement; Agreement covers all CDMA products and all CDMA standards, including multi-mode Business Editors HELSINKI, Finland & SAN DIEGO, Ca.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 3, 2001--Nokia (NYSE:NOK) and Qualcomm Incorporated (Nasdaq:QCOM) today announced that they have expanded the terms of their existing CDMA terminal cross-license agreement. Under the terms of the multi-million dollar expansion, Nokia has also been granted a royalty-bearing license under Qualcomm's patents to make and sell infrastructure equipment for all CDMA wireless systems while Qualcomm is granted rights under Nokia's CDMA-related and other patents to market and sell CDMA components, including multi-mode integrated circuits. As part of the agreement, Nokia will continue to pay royalties to Qualcomm for subscriber equipment at the same rates established by the terms of the original cross-license agreement in 1992, irrespective of the CDMA standard implemented. "Nokia's industry-leading technology base, patent portfolio and cross-licensing arrangements have historically enabled us to offer innovative products to our consumer and carrier customers. We welcome the enhancement of our longstanding technology relationship with Qualcomm and we look forward to the success of new, global third generation wireless solutions," said Yrjo Neuvo, chief technology officer at Nokia Mobile Phones and member of the Executive Board, Nokia Group. "Over the last decade, Nokia has successfully expanded their telecommunications business and has become the world's leading handset supplier," said Steve Altman, executive vice president of Qualcomm and president of Qualcomm's Technology Alliance division. "We welcome the enhancement of the original Nokia-Qualcomm patent agreement to include all CDMA standards for infrastructure equipment as well as subscriber equipment." About Nokia
