I sent an email to QCOM IR this morning to get additional details re: cross-licensing. Julie Cunningham sent this response back.

Julie,

Does the cross-licensing of multi-mode integrated circuits <mentioned in the NOKIA press release> include GSM/EDGE ipr?

QCOM RESPONSE <<For the purposes of multi-mode chip designs, QUALCOMM gains access to all of Nokia's patents.>>


If so, does this mean SPINCO will not happen?

QCOM response <<We continue to proceed with the semiconductor spin-off.>>


Could you please be more specific for me re: the cross-licensing with NOKIA and exactly what this includes?

QCOM response <<It includes all flavors of 2G and 3G CDMA (IS-95A, IS-95B, CDMA2000, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, etc.) The royalty rate is the same regardless of which flavor of CDMA is deployed.>>


Many thanks and great NEWS on the Nokia Infrastructure license!!

QCOM response <<Thank you, we think this agreement is very positive for both Nokia and QUALCOMM.>>
