LICENSEE will furnish and make available to QUALCOMM relevant receipts regarding the payment of any country taxes paid over to any country’s government on behalf of QUALCOMM. Such tax receipts will clearly indicate the amounts that have been withheld from the gross amounts due to QUALCOMM. Any and all other taxes, levies, charges or fees will be paid by LICENSEE for its own account.

5.7    Conversion to U.S. Dollars. Royalties shall be paid in U.S. dollars. To the extent that the Net Selling Price for Subscriber Units Sold by LICENSEE outside of the United States is paid to LICENSEE other than in U.S. dollars, LICENSEE shall convert the portion of the royalty payable to QUALCOMM from such Net Selling Price into U.S. dollars at the official rate of exchange of the currency of the country from which the Net Selling Price was paid, as quoted by the U.S. Wall Street Journal (or the Chase Manhattan Bank or another agreed-upon source if not quoted in the Wall Street Journal) for the last business day of the calendar quarter in which such Subscriber Units were Sold. If the transfer of or the conversion into U.S. dollars is not lawful or possible, the payment of such part of the royalties as is necessary shall be made by the deposit thereof, in the currency of the country where the sale was made on which the royalty was based to the credit and account of QUALCOMM or its nominee in any commercial bank or trust company of QUALCOMM’s choice located in that country, prompt notice of which shall be given by LICENSEE to QUALCOMM.

5.10    Ericsson Patents.

5.10.1    Ericsson Patents Sublicensed. The term “Ericsson’s Patents” means all of the following patents which are owned or sublicenseable by Ericsson without payment of any royalty or other consideration to a third party: (a) Ericsson’s patents which, but for the sublicenses granted under Section 5.10.2 below, would be infringed by the use of QUALCOMM’s Chipset for their intended purposes (the “Ericsson Chipset Patents”), and (b) Ericsson’s Essential Patents which are, or are claimed by Ericsson to be, essential to IS-95 Rev A or Rev B, whether or not such Essential Patents are infringed by the use of QUALCOMM’s Chipset (the “Other Ericsson Patents”).

The term “Essential Patents” means those patents (in any country of the world) as to which it is, or is claimed by the patent owner to be, not possible on technical (but not commercial) grounds, taking into account normal technical practice and the state of the art generally available at the time of adoption or publication of the relevant standard for CDMA Applications, to make, sell, lease, otherwise dispose of, repair, use or operate equipment or methods which comply with such standard without infringing such patent.

5.10.2    Sublicense Under Ericsson’s Patents. The following sublicense is granted subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including but not limited to the payment of royalties hereunder in accordance with Section 5.2) and Section 5.10.3 below: With respect only to those Subscriber Units Sold by LICENSEE and its Affiliates that contain QUALCOMM’s Chipset, QUALCOMM hereby grants to LICENSEE a sublicense under all of the Ericsson Chipset Patents solely for CDMA Applications and under all of the Other Ericsson Patents solely for IS-95 Related Systems to make (and Have Made), use, sell, offer for sale, lease or otherwise dispose of, and import Subscriber Units into which QUALCOMM’s Chipset is incorporated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no right or sublicense is being granted for or may be extended under patents that apply to the portion of any product that implements an air interface other than CDMA or analog (e.g., no rights and sublicenses are granted for or may be extended under patents that apply to the GSM part of any product).

5.10.3    Non-Assertion Against Ericsson The sublicense granted to LICENSEE under Section 5.10.2 above shall continue only so long as LICENSEE and its Affiliates do not assert, either in litigation or by a direct communication, any Essential Patents for CDMA Applications against Ericsson’s CDMA subscriber, infrastructure or test equipment products, or if in the case of such litigation or assertion LICENSEE dismisses such litigation or withdraws such assertion or offers a royalty-free license under such patents within thirty (30) days after QUALCOMM’s receipt of notice from Ericsson of such litigation or communication.

No other, further or different license is hereby granted or implied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, QUALCOMM may assign the licenses from LICENSEE under this Section 6.1 as to Components to any successor (by purchase, divestiture, merger or otherwise) to all or substantially all of QUALCOMM’s Components business. QUALCOMM shall give prompt written notice to LICENSEE of any such assignment.

QUALCOMM will promptly notify LICENSEE of any Authorized Licensees that have agreed to such a similar undertaking.

6.4    License Of Future Commercially Necessary IPR.

Any controversy, claim or dispute (separately or collectively, the “Dispute”) as to whether a product manufactured and/or sold by LICENSEE outside the United States would, but for the license granted hereunder, infringe any foreign patent of QUALCOMM licensed hereunder and therefore is subject to royalties hereunder, shall be resolved in accordance with the procedures specified in this Section 24 which shall be the sole and exclusive procedures for the resolution of any such Dispute.

The selected arbitrator shall be impartial and shall have, as nearly as practicable, the qualifications set forth above. The Parties will share equally the fees and expenses of the arbitrator.

The arbitrator shall be authorized and empowered only to rule as to whether products manufactured and/or Sold by LICENSEE in a foreign country or countries would, but for the license granted hereunder, infringe any claim of the applicable foreign patent(s) of QUALCOMM, and if so, the amount of the royalties owed by LICENSEE as to such product(s) under Section 5.2 of this Agreement. The arbitrator shall award attorneys’ fees and costs to the prevailing Party.
