Table of Contents

Q:		Why am I receiving this prospectus/ information statement?
A:		QUALCOMM has agreed to acquire Flarion under the terms of a merger agreement that is described in this prospectus/ information statement. Please see the discussion in the section entitled “Certain Terms of the Merger Agreement.” A copy of the merger agreement is attached to this prospectus/ information statement as Annex A. On July 26, 2005, Flarion stockholders adopted the merger agreement and approved the merger pursuant to an action by written consent. As a result, no further approval of Flarion stockholders is needed to complete the merger.
Q:		What will happen in connection with the proposed transaction?
A:		In the merger, Flarion and a wholly owned subsidiary of QUALCOMM will merge and, as a result, Flarion will become a wholly owned subsidiary of QUALCOMM. Pursuant to this merger, the stockholders of Flarion will become stockholders of QUALCOMM. In this prospectus/ information statement we sometimes refer to this merger as the “first merger,” and references to the “merger,” unless specified otherwise, shall also refer to this merger. Immediately following the merger, in a second merger, Flarion will merge into another wholly owned subsidiary of QUALCOMM, with the surviving company of the second merger being a wholly owned subsidiary of QUALCOMM and the ultimate surviving entity of the mergers. In this prospectus/ information statement we sometimes refer to the first merger and second merger, taken together as a whole, as the “mergers.”
Q:		Why is Flarion proposing the merger?
A:		We believe that the proposed transaction will provide substantial benefits to the Flarion stockholders. The Flarion board of directors believes the merger provides Flarion stockholders with liquidity and strategic and growth opportunities that would not have been available to Flarion on a stand-alone basis. To review the Flarion reasons for the transaction in greater detail, see “The Merger — Flarion’s Reasons for the Merger; Recommendation of the Flarion Board of Directors.”
Q:		What will I be entitled to receive pursuant to the merger?
A:		Upon the closing of the merger, holders of Flarion common stock will be entitled to receive for each share of Flarion common stock, consideration, payable in shares of QUALCOMM common stock, equal to a pro rata portion (determined on a fully diluted, as-converted basis including all outstanding options and warrants, exclusive of directed options as described in the section entitled “Certain Terms of the Merger Agreement — Directed Options”) of $600 million, subject to certain potential adjustments. Holders of Flarion preferred stock will be entitled to receive for each share of preferred stock two times the amount of consideration that each share of Flarion common stock is entitled to receive, payable in a combination of shares of QUALCOMM common stock and cash. Based upon the Flarion shares, options, warrants and other rights outstanding as of August 5, 2005, the initial consideration per share of Flarion common stock would be approximately $3.93.
		Flarion stockholders will also be entitled to receive additional consideration in connection with the achievement of a patent milestone. Upon the issuance of 20 U.S. patents, out of approximately 125 Flarion U.S. patent applications, prior to the eighth anniversary of the closing date of the merger, Flarion stockholders, option holders (other than with respect to directed options) and warrant holders will be entitled to receive their pro rata portion (determined on a fully diluted, as-converted basis as described above) of aggregate additional consideration of $205 million, payable in cash to Flarion stockholders and shares of QUALCOMM common stock to holders of Flarion options (other than with respect to directed options) and warrants, subject to holdback and offset of up to $75 million for damages incurred by QUALCOMM for which it is entitled to indemnification pursuant to the merger agreement.
		Of the aggregate consideration that Flarion stockholders are entitled to receive, assuming payment in full of the patent milestone amount, approximately 60% of such consideration shall be payable in cash and approximately 40% shall be payable in shares of QUALCOMM common stock.

Q:		What do I need to do now?
A:		We urge you to read this prospectus/ information statement carefully, including its annexes, and to consider how the merger affects you. The merger has already been approved by the board of directors of each of QUALCOMM and Flarion, and by the stockholders of Flarion. You are not being asked to vote on the merger agreement. Instead, this prospectus/ information statement is being provided to you for informational purposes, including alerting you of appraisal rights you may have if you hold Flarion capital stock.
Q:		What vote was needed to adopt the merger agreement?
A:		The merger did not require the vote of QUALCOMM stockholders. The vote required of the stockholders of Flarion was the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of (i) capital stock of Flarion, voting as a single class on an as-converted basis, and (ii) preferred stock of Flarion, voting as a single class on an as-converted basis. On July 26, 2005, the requisite vote from Flarion stockholders was received by written consent and the merger agreement was adopted by the Flarion stockholders.
Q:		Did the Flarion board of directors recommend the merger?
A:		Yes. The Flarion board of directors unanimously determined that the merger is advisable and fair to, and in the best interests of, Flarion’s stockholders. The Flarion board of directors has also unanimously approved the merger agreement, the merger and the other transactions contemplated by the merger agreement. The reasons for Flarion’s board of directors’ determination are discussed in greater detail in the section entitled “The Merger — Flarion’s Reasons for the Merger; Recommendation of the Flarion Board of Directors.”
Q:		Do persons involved in the merger have interests that may conflict with mine as a Flarion stockholder?
A:		Yes. When considering the recommendations of Flarion’s board of directors, you should be aware that certain Flarion directors and officers have interests in the merger that may be different from, or are in addition to, yours. These interests include employment of certain Flarion executive officers by QUALCOMM after the mergers and the indemnification of directors and officers of Flarion by QUALCOMM. To review the interests of Flarion’s directors and management in the merger in greater detail, see “The Merger — Interests of Flarion’s Directors and Management in the Merger.”
Q:		What are the conditions to completion of the merger?
A:		The obligations of QUALCOMM and Flarion to complete the proposed merger are subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain specified closing conditions, including governmental approvals. To review the conditions to closing in greater detail, see “Certain Terms of the Merger Agreement — Conditions to the Closing of the Merger.”
Q:		Should I send in my Flarion stock certificates now?
A:		No. After the merger is completed, holders of Flarion common stock and preferred stock will receive written instructions for exchanging stock certificates representing shares of Flarion capital stock for the merger consideration described in detail above, subject to the terms of the merger agreement.
Q:		When do you expect the merger to be completed?
A:		We are working toward completing the merger as quickly as possible. There are several conditions that must be satisfied or waived prior to the completion of the merger, including obtaining required regulatory approvals and registration of the QUALCOMM common stock to be issued in connection with the merger.
Q:		Will the proposed merger be completed?
A:		It is possible that the proposed merger will not be completed for any one of a number of reasons, such as the failure of one of the parties to satisfy a condition of closing.

Q:		Am I entitled to appraisal rights?
A:		Holders of Flarion capital stock who did not vote in favor of adoption of the merger agreement and approval of the mergers, who hold their shares of Flarion capital stock of record and continue to own those shares through the effective time of the merger and who properly demand appraisal of their shares in writing are entitled to appraisal rights pursuant to the merger agreement under Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, or the DGCL, which is attached to this prospectus/ information statement as Annex C.
		Under Section 262, Flarion stockholders who comply with the procedures set forth in Section 262 will be entitled to have their shares appraised by the Delaware Court of Chancery and to receive payment of the fair value of the shares, exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the merger, together with a fair rate of interest, if any, as determined by the court.
Q:		Are there risks I should consider in deciding whether to exercise my appraisal rights in connection with the merger?
A:		Yes. In evaluating the merger, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in the section entitled “Risk Factors.”
Q:		Will Flarion stockholders recognize a taxable gain or loss for United States federal income tax purposes as a result of the mergers?
A:		It is expected that the merger of a QUALCOMM subsidiary into Flarion, followed by the merger of Flarion into a QUALCOMM subsidiary, taken together as a whole, will qualify as a reorganization under Section 368(a) of the Internal Revenue Code. Assuming that the mergers qualify as a reorganization under the Internal Revenue Code, then the exchange of shares of Flarion common stock and Flarion preferred stock solely for shares of QUALCOMM common stock will not be a taxable transaction to Flarion stockholders for United States federal income tax purposes. Flarion stockholders will, however, recognize gain in the amount equal to the lesser of the amount of gain realized, or the amount of cash received. Additionally, a Flarion stockholder will recognize gain or loss with respect to any cash received in lieu of a fractional share of QUALCOMM common stock.
		Tax matters are very complicated and the tax consequences of the mergers to a Flarion stockholder will depend on the facts of each holder’s own situation. We encourage each Flarion stockholder to carefully read the discussion in the section entitled “The Merger — Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Mergers” and to consult the stockholder’s own tax advisor for a full understanding of the tax consequences of the mergers.
Q:		What will happen to options to acquire Flarion common stock upon the merger?
A:		Each option to purchase shares of Flarion common stock that would otherwise be outstanding if not for the merger will be assumed by QUALCOMM and will be converted into an option to purchase shares of QUALCOMM common stock under the terms specified in the merger agreement. Flarion option holders (other than with respect to directed options) may also be entitled to receive additional consideration, payable in shares of QUALCOMM common stock issuable upon or following the exercise of such option equal to a pro rata portion (determined on a fully diluted, as-converted basis) of additional aggregate consideration of $205 million, conditioned upon the achievement of a patent milestone, subject to a holdback or offset for indemnification, as described in the section entitled “Certain Terms of the Merger Agreement — Indemnification Holdback Amount.”
Q:		What will happen to warrants to acquire Flarion preferred stock upon the merger?
A:		QUALCOMM will issue a replacement warrant to purchase shares of QUALCOMM common stock for each warrant to purchase shares of Flarion preferred stock outstanding immediately prior to completion of the merger under the terms specified in the merger agreement. Flarion warrant holders may also be entitled to receive additional consideration, payable in shares of QUALCOMM common stock issuable upon or following the exercise of such warrant equal to a pro rata portion (determined on a fully diluted, as-converted basis) of additional aggregate consideration of $205 million, conditioned upon the

	achievement of a patent milestone, subject to a holdback or offset for indemnification as described in the section entitled “Certain Terms of the Merger Agreement — Indemnification Holdback Amount.”

Q:		Are there any regulatory consents or approvals that are required to complete the merger?
A:		Neither QUALCOMM nor Flarion is aware of the need to obtain any regulatory approvals in order to complete the merger other than the following:

	•	the registration statement of which this prospectus/ information statement is a part must be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission; and
	•	the mergers are subject to review by the United States Federal Trade Commission and the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, or the HSR Act, and under this statute, QUALCOMM and Flarion are required to make pre-merger notification filings and to await the expiration or early termination of a statutory waiting period prior to completing the mergers. In response to these filings, on September 19, 2005, QUALCOMM and Flarion received a request for additional information and documentary materials from the Department of Justice. QUALCOMM and Flarion intend to respond to this second request as expeditiously as possible.

		QUALCOMM and Flarion intend to obtain these approvals and make the necessary filings and any additional regulatory approvals and filings that may be required. However, neither of the parties can assure you that all of the approvals will be obtained.
Q:		Who can help answer my questions?
A:		If you would like additional copies, without charge, of this prospectus/ information statement or if you have questions about the merger, you should contact:

	•	the risks and potential rewards associated with, as an alternative to the merger, continuing to execute Flarion’s strategic plan as an independent entity. These risks include, among others, Flarion’s uncertain future profitability, potential difficulties in obtaining necessary additional financing to remain a stand-alone entity, its reliance on a limited number of customers for a substantial portion of its revenues, and its uncertain ability to compete effectively against larger and better capitalized competitors, and the rewards include, among others, the ability of existing Flarion stockholders to participate in the potential future growth and profitability of QUALCOMM after the merger;
	•	the possibility, as alternatives to the merger, of seeking to be acquired by a company other than QUALCOMM, to engage in a combination with a company other than QUALCOMM or to effect an initial public offering of Flarion common stock, and the Flarion board of directors’ conclusion that neither a transaction with another party nor any other alternative would reasonably be likely to result in greater value to the stockholders than the proposed transaction with QUALCOMM. The Flarion board of directors concluded that the transaction with QUALCOMM could be acceptably completed from a timing and regulatory standpoint, and would yield greater benefits than the alternatives given QUALCOMM’s financial resources and its ability to fund a greater number of long-term growth projects and to compete effectively;
	•	the value of the consideration provided for in the merger agreement based on the then-current market price and historical trading price of QUALCOMM common stock over the past year;
	•	the presentation and opinion of Evercore;
	•	the ability to complete the merger as a reorganization for United States federal income tax purposes;
	•	the interests that certain executive officers and directors of Flarion may have with respect to the merger in addition to their general interests as stockholders of Flarion. See the section entitled “The Merger — Interests of Flarion’s Directors and Management in the Merger;”
	•	the merger will enable Flarion stockholders to participate in, and benefit from the future growth potential of, a large, publicly held company with a greater depth of technologies, marketing opportunities and financial and operating resources that should enhance Flarion’s ability to bring technology to market;
	•	the public market for QUALCOMM common stock will offer Flarion stockholders liquidity earlier than if Flarion proceeded with an initial public offering, while avoiding the risk and investment in time and expense of an initial public offering; and
	•	the availability of appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL.

	(a) The per share price shall equal the amount obtained by dividing (A) $600,000,000, as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.6(b) (the “Initial Purchase Price”) by (B) the Fully Diluted Share Number (the “Per Share Purchase Price”).

(i) Each share of Target Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I (excluding shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(h) and Dissenting Shares) shall be converted and exchanged into the right to receive an amount equal to two (2) times the Per Share Purchase Price, a portion of which, equal to the Preferred Equity Percentage, shall be payable with a fraction (the “Preferred Exchange Ratio”) of a share of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable common stock, $0.0001 par value, of Acquiror (“Acquiror Common Stock”) which equals the amount obtained by (A) dividing two (2) times the Per Share Purchase Price by the Average Closing Price and (B) multiplying the quotient of (A) by the Preferred Equity Percentage, and the remainder of which shall be payable in cash (the “Initial Cash Consideration”). The “Preferred Equity Percentage” shall mean the percentage resulting from (I) the Preferred Equity Amount divided by (II) the aggregate amount of the Initial Purchase Price that Stockholders are eligible to receive based on shares of Target Preferred Stock held by them and issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I (excluding shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(h) and Dissenting Shares), based on the Per Share Purchase Price. Schedule 2.6(a)(i) attached hereto reflects a sample calculation pursuant to this Section 2.6.

(ii) Each share of Target Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I (excluding shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(h) and Dissenting Shares) shall be converted and exchanged into the right to receive an amount equal to the Per Share Purchase Price, which shall be payable with a fraction (the “Common Exchange Ratio”) of a share of validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable Acquiror Common Stock which equals the amount obtained by dividing the Per Share Purchase Price by the Average Closing Price.

	(b) To the extent (i) Target’s Estimated Closing Working Capital at the Closing Date (but without deduction of any paid, incurred or accrued Transaction Expenses) is less than $46,500,000, reduced by (A) $3,500,000 for each calendar month (or portion thereof) following June 30, 2005 (pro-rated for partial months), (B) any employee severance or integration fee, cost, expense, payment or expenditure that is paid, incurred or accrued at the direction of Acquiror, (C) any expense paid, incurred or accrued relating to or arising out of the Rights Agreement and any filing fees incurred in connection with efforts to obtain any clearances, approvals or consents or the expiration of waiting periods under HSR or foreign antitrust or competition laws, (D) all expenses of Target relating to actions, suits, proceedings, claims, arbitrations or investigations commenced following the public announcement of this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby and attributable to such public announcement and transactions, and (E) any expense paid, incurred or accrued to purchase Directed Inventory, such applicable amount being the “Working Capital Threshold,” or (ii) Target’s Transactions Expenses exceed $10,000,000 in the aggregate (the “Transaction Expense Threshold”), the Initial Purchase Price shall be reduced by an amount equal to the sum of (I) the amount, if any, by which the Working Capital Threshold exceeds Target’s Estimated Closing Working Capital at the Closing Date pursuant to Section 6.18 (and as determined in accordance with this Section 2.6), and (II) the amount, if any, by which Target’s Transaction Expenses exceed the Transaction Expense Threshold (the sum of (I) and (II) being the “Adjustment Amount”); provided, however, that the amount, if any by which Target’s Estimated Closing Working Capital at the Closing Date exceeds the Working Capital Threshold shall be offset against the Adjustment Amount.
	(c) Using the lower of the closing price per share for the Acquiror Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market on the trading day immediately prior to the date of this Agreement (the “Signing Date Price”) and the closing price for the Acquiror Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market on the trading day immediately prior to the Closing Date (the “Closing Date Price”), if the value of the Aggregate Equity Consideration which the holders of shares of Target Common Stock and Target Preferred Stock issued prior to May 1, 2005 are entitled to receive (the “Assessable Equity Consideration) would be less than forty percent (40%) of the amount of the Assessable Merger Consideration (as defined below), then the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock that the holders of shares Target Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I are entitled to receive (other than Dissenting Shares and shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(h)) shall automatically be increased and the Initial Cash Consideration payable to such holders shall automatically be decreased (with the aggregate value of the Initial Purchase Price payable to each such holder remaining the same, based on the Average Closing Price) such that, after such adjustment, the value (using the lower of the Signing Date Price and the Closing Date Price) of the Assessable Equity Consideration is equal to forty percent (40%) of the Assessable Merger Consideration. In the event it is determined with finality (either via non-appealable award(s) or judgment(s) or via binding settlement(s)) that there are any amounts paid or payable to Dissenting Stockholders in respect of Dissenting Shares in excess of the Dissenting Stockholders’ pro-rata share of the Assessable Merger Consideration (the “Excess Dissenters Consideration”), Acquiror shall, immediately after the full amount of Excess Dissenters Consideration is known with finality and immediately prior to payment thereof to Dissenting Stockholders, issue to the former holders of shares of Target Common Stock and Target Preferred Stock (other than Dissenting Shares and shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(h)), or to their respective successors and assigns, additional freely tradable shares of Acquiror Common Stock such that, after such issuance, the value of all shares of Acquiror Common Stock (using the lower of the Signing Date Price and the Closing Date Price) issued by Acquiror pursuant to this Agreement to the former holders of Target Common Stock and Target Preferred Stock issued prior to May 1, 2005 is equal to forty

	percent (40%) of the sum of the Assessable Merger Consideration and the Excess Dissenters Consideration. The value of any Acquiror Common Stock issued pursuant to the preceding sentence (determined by using the closing price for the Acquiror Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market on the trading day immediately prior to such issuance) shall offset dollar-for-dollar the first amounts which may thereafter become payable by Acquiror to such holders pursuant to Section 2.6(m) hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no fractional shares of Acquiror Common Stock shall be issued pursuant to this Section 2.6(c) and in lieu thereof, Acquiror shall pay cash equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the closing price of one share of Acquiror Common Stock on the date thereof (the “Fractional Share Payments”). The intent of this Section 2.6(c) is to ensure that the “continuity of proprietary interest” requirement of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-1(e) is met and shall be construed to effectuate such intent. In no event shall any change in the composition of the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.6(c) reduce the aggregate amount of consideration paid by Acquiror to the Stockholders hereunder. As used herein “Assessable Merger Consideration” shall mean the value of the Aggregate Equity Consideration (using the lower of the Signing Date Price and the Closing Date Price), the Initial Cash Consideration and the maximum permitted Additional Payment Amount which the holders of shares of Target Common Stock and Target Preferred Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I (other than Dissenting Shares and shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(h)) are entitled to receive (assuming the occurrence of the Patent Milestone Date).
	(d) As soon as practicable (and in any event within sixty (60) days following the Closing), Acquiror shall prepare and deliver to the Stockholders’ Agent the Closing Balance Sheet, a calculation of Target’s Closing Working Capital based on such Closing Balance Sheet (the “Closing Working Capital Calculation”) and all work papers and back-up materials relating thereto. The Closing Balance Sheet and the Closing Working Capital Calculation shall be conclusive and binding on the parties hereto unless the Stockholders’ Agent gives written notice of any objections thereto setting forth in reasonable detail the amounts in dispute and the basis for such dispute (a “Purchase Price Objection Notice”) to Acquiror within thirty (30) days after its receipt of the Closing Balance Sheet, Closing Working Capital Calculation and all work papers and back-up materials relating thereto. From and after the Closing and so long as any dispute set forth in a Purchase Price Objection Notice is outstanding and unresolved, Acquiror shall afford the Stockholders’ Agent and its Representatives with reasonable access during normal business hours to the applicable financial records of the Surviving Corporation so as to enable their review of the Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Working Capital Calculation. If the Stockholders’ Agent delivers a Purchase Price Objection Notice as provided above, Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent shall attempt in good faith to resolve such dispute, and any resolution by them as to any disputed amounts shall be final, binding and conclusive. If Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent are unable to resolve, despite good faith negotiations, all disputes reflected in the Purchase Price Objection Notice within thirty (30) days thereafter (the “Purchase Price Resolution Period”), then Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent will, within thirty (30) days after the expiration of the Purchase Price Resolution Period, submit any such unresolved dispute to the Independent Accounting Firm. Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent shall provide to the Independent Accounting Firm all work papers and back-up materials relating to the unresolved disputes requested by the Independent Accounting Firm to the extent available to Acquiror or its Representatives or the Stockholders’ Agent or its Representatives. Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent shall be afforded the opportunity to present to the Independent Accounting Firm any material related to the unresolved disputes and to discuss the issues with the Independent Accounting Firm; provided, however, that no such presentation or discussion shall occur without the presence of a representative of both Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent. The determination by the Independent Accounting Firm, as set forth in a notice to be delivered to Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent within thirty (30) days after the submission of the unresolved disputes to the Independent Accounting Firm, shall be final, binding and conclusive on Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent. The determination of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be limited to the disagreements submitted to the Independent Accounting Firm and shall be limited in scope as to whether: (i) the Closing Balance Sheet and Closing Working Capital Calculation were prepared in accordance with GAAP and, to the

	extent consistent with GAAP, on the basis of the same accounting principles and practices used by Target in preparing the Target Balance Sheet and (ii) there were any mathematical errors in the calculation of the Closing Date Balance Sheet and the Closing Working Capital Calculation. The fees and expenses of the Independent Accounting Firm shall be split equally between Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent. Target’s Closing Working Capital reflected in the Closing Working Capital Calculation, as revised to reflect the resolution of any and all disputes by Acquiror and the Stockholders’ Agent and/or the Independent Accounting Firm, shall be deemed to be the “Closing Working Capital.”
	(e) Closing Payment Schedule. At the Closing, Target shall deliver to Acquiror a definitive closing payment schedule (the “Closing Payment Schedule”) accurately setting forth: (i) the name of each holder of Target Capital Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I (after giving effect to any exercises of Target Options or Target Warrants prior to the Effective Time of Merger I) (each, a “Stockholder”); (ii) the number of shares of Target Capital Stock of each class and series held by each such Stockholder immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I; (iii) the cash amount of the Additional Patent Consideration to which each Stockholder may be entitled assuming the terms and conditions of Section 2.6(m)(i) are satisfied and that there has been no offset of any portion of the Additional Patent Consideration pursuant to Section 9 hereof; (iv) the cash amount to be withheld and contributed to the Expenses Fund on behalf of each such Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.7(i); (v) the shares of Acquiror Common Stock to be withheld and contributed to the Expenses Fund on behalf of each such Stockholder pursuant to Section 2.7(i); (vi) the Cash Consideration, if any, and the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock that each such Stockholder is entitled to receive at the Closing pursuant to Section 2.6 (after deduction of the Expenses Fund Cash and Expenses Fund Shares to be withheld and contributed to the Expenses Fund on behalf of such Stockholder pursuant to Section 9.7); and (vii) the estimated aggregate amount of Target’s Transaction Expenses. The Closing Payment Schedule shall be accompanied by reasonable documentation which supports the information provided therein (including written confirmations from those Target Representatives, if any, identified by Acquiror on Schedule 2.6(e) as to all amounts paid, owed and to be owed by Target to such Target Representative in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement).
	(f) Target Stock Options.

(i) At the Effective Time of Merger I, Acquiror will assume each option to purchase Target Common Stock that was granted under the Target Option Plan and is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I (each a “Target Option”) and (A) each Target Option shall thereby be converted into an option (an “Assumed Option”) to purchase the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Target Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Target Option (whether or not then exercisable or vested) immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I multiplied by the Option Exchange Ratio (as defined below), rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock, and (B) the per share exercise price for the shares of Acquiror Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the per share exercise price of the Target Option immediately prior to the Closing Date by the Option Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Each Assumed Option that is not a Directed Option (an “Existing Option”) shall also include the right to receive, upon or following the exercise of such Existing Option and subject to the occurrence of the Patent Milestone Date, shares of Acquiror Common Stock (“Option Earn-out Shares”), as set forth below. The number of Option Earn-out Shares allocated to an Existing Option shall be the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) having a fair market value (based upon the closing price of the Acquiror Common Stock on the Patent Milestone Date, Indemnification Termination Date or Patent Milestone Option Issuance Date, as the case may be) equal to the product of (a) the Per Share Additional Patent Consideration multiplied by (b) the number of shares of Target Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Existing Option (whether or not then exercisable or vested) immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I; provided, however, that with respect to any Option Earn-out Shares issuable as of the Patent Milestone Option Issuance Date as set forth

A-17

Table of Contents

	below, the Per Share Additional Patent Consideration shall be determined without regard to any pending or future claims for indemnification pursuant to Section 9. Option Earn-out Shares shall be allocated to each vesting tranche of an Existing Option proportionate to the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock subject to such tranche upon assumption, and shall remain subject to any repurchase right applicable to the tranche. Option Earn-out Shares shall be issuable on the later of (a) the date of exercise of the relevant tranche, and (b)(i) if the Patent Milestone Date occurs on or after the Indemnification Termination Date, the Patent Milestone Date or (ii) if the Patent Milestone Date occurs prior to the Indemnification Termination Date, (A) with respect to a portion of the Per Share Additional Patent Consideration equal to the amount of Per Share Additional Patent Consideration to which the Stockholders are entitled to receive on the Patent Milestone Date, the Patent Milestone Date and (B) with respect to the remainder of the Per Share Additional Patent Consideration, the earlier of the Patent Milestone Option Issuance Date and the Indemnification Termination Date. In no event shall any Directed Options be entitled to receive any Option Earn-out Shares. No holder of an Existing Option shall be required to pay any additional exercise price with respect to Option Earn-out Shares. Except for the foregoing adjustments and as otherwise provided herein, all the terms and conditions in effect for each Assumed Option immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I shall continue in effect following the assumption of such option in accordance with this Agreement. For the purposes of this Section 2.6(f), the term “Option Exchange Ratio” shall mean an amount equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the Per Share Purchase Price by (y) the average of the closing prices of a share of Acquiror Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market for all of the trading days between the date of this Agreement and the date which is three (3) trading days prior to the trading date on which the Effective Time of Merger I occurs (the “Average Closing Price”).
	(ii) Prior to the Effective Time of Merger I, Target and Acquiror shall take all action that may be necessary (under the Target Option Plans or otherwise) to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.6(f) and to ensure that, from and after the Effective Time of Merger I, holders of Target Options have no rights with respect to such Target Options other than those specifically provided in this Section 2.6.
	(iii) Target has represented and warranted in Section 3.5 to Acquiror that Schedule 2.6(f) accurately sets forth the following information as of July 19, 2005: (i) the name of the holder of each outstanding Target Option; (ii) the Target Option Plan pursuant to which such Target Option was granted; (iii) the number of shares of Target Common Stock subject to such Target Option, and the applicable exercise price per share of Target Common Stock; (iv) the vesting schedule applicable to such Target Option; (v) to the extent applicable, a description of any acceleration of vesting provisions to which such Target Option is subject; (vi) the expiration date of such Target Option; and (vii) the tax status of such Target Option. At the Closing, Target shall deliver to Acquiror a definitive closing option schedule (the “Closing Option Schedule”) accurately setting forth: (A) the information described in clauses “(i)” through “(vi)” of the preceding sentence immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I, (B) the Option Exchange Ratio and (C) the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock that will be subject to each Target Option immediately after its assumption by Acquiror at the Effective Time of Merger I, and the applicable exercise price per share of Acquiror Common Stock.

(g) Target Warrants. At the Effective Time of Merger I, Acquiror will grant to each holder of a warrant to purchase Target Preferred Stock described on Schedule 2.6(g) (to the extent not exercised prior to the Effective Time of Merger I) (the “Assumed Target Warrants”) a warrant (each, an “Acquiror Warrant” and collectively, the “Acquiror Warrants”) to purchase the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock, equal to the product of the number of shares of Target Preferred Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Target Warrant (whether or not then exercisable or vested) immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I multiplied by the Warrant Exchange Ratio (as defined below), rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock, and the per share

	exercise price for the shares of Acquiror Common Stock issuable upon exercise of each such Acquiror Warrant shall be equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the exercise price of such Assumed Target Warrant immediately prior to the Closing Date by the Warrant Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Except for the foregoing adjustments and as otherwise provided herein, each Acquiror Warrant shall be granted on the terms and conditions in effect for such Assumed Target Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I. For the purposes of this Section 2.6(g), the term “Warrant Exchange Ratio” shall mean an amount equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) two (2) times the Per Share Purchase Price by (y) the Average Closing Price. In addition, each Acquiror Warrant shall include the right to receive, upon or following the exercise of such Acquiror Warrant and subject to the occurrence of the Patent Milestone Date, shares of Acquiror Common Stock (“Warrant Earn-out Shares”), in addition to the shares of Acquiror Stock determined by the Warrant Exchange Ratio, as set forth below. The number of Warrant Earn-out Shares allocated to an Acquiror Warrant shall be the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) having a fair market value (based upon the closing price of the Acquiror Common Stock on the Patent Milestone Date or the Indemnification Termination Date, as the case may be) equal to the product of (i) two (2) times the Per Share Additional Patent Consideration multiplied by (ii) the number of shares of Target Common Stock that were issuable under the relevant Assumed Target Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I. Warrant Earn-out Shares shall be allocated to each vesting tranche of an Acquiror Warrant proportionate to the number of shares of Acquiror Common Stock subject to such tranche upon the grant of the Acquiror Warrant. Warrant Earn-out Shares shall be issuable on the later of (a) the date of exercise of the relevant tranche, and (b)(i) if the Patent Milestone Date occurs on or after the Indemnification Termination Date, the Patent Milestone Date or (ii) if the Patent Milestone Date occurs prior to the Indemnification Termination Date, (A) with respect to a portion of the Per Share Additional Patent Consideration equal to the amount of Per Share Additional Patent Consideration to which the Stockholders are entitled to receive on the Patent Milestone Date, the Patent Milestone Date and (B) with respect to the remainder of the Per Share Additional Patent Consideration, the Indemnification Termination Date.
	(h) Cancellation of Target Capital Stock Owned by Acquiror and Treasury Stock. At the Effective Time of Merger I, each share of Target Capital Stock owned by Acquiror or any direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Acquiror immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I, and each share of Target Capital Stock that is held in the treasury of Target, shall automatically be canceled and extinguished without any conversion thereof and no Merger Consideration shall be deliverable in exchange therefor.
	(i) Capital Stock of Merger Sub I. At the Effective Time of Merger I, each share of common stock of Merger Sub I issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I shall be converted into and exchanged for one validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock of Surviving Corporation I. Each stock certificate of Merger Sub I evidencing ownership of any such shares shall continue to evidence ownership of such shares of capital stock of Surviving Corporation I.
	(j) Adjustments to Exchange Ratio. The Preferred Exchange Ratio, Common Exchange Ratio, the Option Exchange Ratio, the Warrant Exchange Ratio and Merger Consideration payable with respect to Target Capital Stock shall be adjusted to reflect fully the effect of any stock split, reverse split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Acquiror Common Stock, Target Preferred Stock or Target Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization or other like change with respect to Acquiror Common Stock or Target Capital Stock occurring after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time of Merger I.
	(k) Fractional Shares. No fraction of a share of Acquiror Common Stock will be issued, but in lieu thereof each Stockholder who would otherwise be entitled to a fraction of a share of Acquiror Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of Acquiror Common Stock to be received by such holder) shall receive from Acquiror an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent) equal to the product of (i) such fraction, multiplied by (ii) the Average Closing Price. The fractional share

	interests of each Stockholder shall be aggregated, so that no Stockholder shall receive cash in respect of fractional share interests in an amount greater than the value of one full share of Acquiror Common Stock.
	(l) Appraisal Rights. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, shares of Target Capital Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I and which are held by Stockholders who did not vote in favor of the adoption of this Agreement (the “Dissenting Shares”), which Stockholders comply with all of the relevant provisions of the DGCL to exercise appraisal rights (each, a “Dissenting Stockholder” and collectively, the “Dissenting Stockholders”), shall not be converted into or be exchangeable for the right to receive Merger Consideration, unless and until such Stockholders shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost their rights to appraisal under the DGCL, but will be entitled to appraisal by the Delaware Court of Chancery and to payment of the “fair value” of such shares in cash exclusive of any element of value arising from the accomplishment or expectation of the Merger together with a fair rate of interest, as determined by such court. If any Dissenting Stockholders shall have failed to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost such right, such holder’s shares of Target Capital Stock, shall thereupon be converted into and become exchangeable for the right to receive, as of the Effective Time of Merger I, the Merger Consideration to which it is entitled. Target shall give Acquiror (a) prompt notice of any demands for appraisal of any Target Capital Stock or attempted withdrawals of such demands and any other instruments served pursuant to the DGCL and received by Target relating to Stockholders’ rights of appraisal, and (b) the opportunity, subject to reasonable consultation with the Stockholders’ Agent, to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL. Neither Target nor the Surviving Corporation shall, except with the prior written consent of Acquiror, voluntarily make any payment with respect to, or settle or offer to settle, any such demand for payment. If any Dissenting Stockholder shall fail to perfect or shall have effectively withdrawn or lost the right to dissent, the shares of Target Capital Stock held by such Dissenting Stockholder shall thereupon be treated as though such shares had been converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Agreement. Acquiror shall contribute or cause to be contributed to Surviving Corporation funds sufficient from time to time to make all payments with respect to Dissenting Stockholders who have perfected their rights to appraisal under the DGCL.
	(m) In addition to the Initial Purchase Price set forth in Section 2.6(a) above, Acquiror shall pay to the Stockholders in cash the additional amounts set forth in this Section 2.6(m) (the “Additional Payment Amount” and, together with the Initial Purchase Price, the “Aggregate Purchase Price”), in each case less amounts subject to offset pursuant to Section 9 hereof, subject to and in accordance with the following:

(i) Target represents and warrants to Acquiror that Target has an aggregate of at least one hundred twenty-five (125) U.S. patent applications pending as of July 21, 2005, with this number being subject to change from time to time as a result of the filing of continuations and/or divisional patent applications claiming priority to a pending application and/or the filing of utility applications claiming the benefit of a pending provisional application (Target’s pending U.S. patent applications, continuation and divisional applications of Target’s pending U.S. patent applications and utility applications which claim benefit to at least one of Target’s pending U.S. patent applications, collectively the “Applications”). Following Acquiror’s review and analysis of the published Applications, Acquiror will select, in its sole discretion, fifteen (15) of the Applications (the “Acquiror Selected Applications”) by written notice to Target no later than ten (10) days after the date of this Agreement (the “Acquiror Selection Date”). Following the Closing Date, the Acquiror Selected Applications will be prosecuted by Acquiror or Acquiror’s agent as selected by Acquiror (which may include Target’s Patent Firm as defined below), in either case, by utilizing reasonably diligent efforts (including to avoid undue delay) and in good faith to achieve issuance of U.S. patents from such applications (the “Prosecution Standard”). Between the Acquiror Selection Date and the Closing Date, Target shall not, nor shall any agent for Target, take any actions in continuing prosecution of the Acquiror Selected Applications. Following the selection by Acquiror of the Acquiror Selected

Table of Contents

Patents, Target shall select by written notice to Acquiror sixty (60) of the Applications other than the Acquiror Selected Applications (the “Target Selected Applications”). Target shall make such selection by no later thirty (30) days after the Acquiror Selection Date (the “Target Selection Date”). In the event that Target fails to make such selection by the Target Selection Date, Acquiror shall have the right to designate the Target Selected Applications. Promptly following the Closing Date, Target’s current patent counsel (“Target’s Patent Firm”), or a Subsequent Patent Firm (as defined below), shall be instructed by Acquiror to prosecute the Target Selected Applications in accordance with the Prosecution Standard. The Applications other than the Acquiror Selected Applications and the Target Selected Applications (the “Remaining Applications”) will be prosecuted in accordance with the Prosecution Standard by Acquiror or an agent selected by Acquiror (which agent may include Target’s Patent Firm). From and after the Closing Date, Acquiror, consistent with Target’s past practices in the ordinary course of business, shall pay in a timely manner all reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with the prosecution of the Target Selected Applications by Target’s Patent Firm or the Subsequent Patent Firm (as defined below). With respect to the Target Selected Applications, Target’s Patent Firm or any Subsequent Patent Firm shall be instructed by Acquiror (for itself and on behalf of the Stockholders’ Agent) that during the period prior to the Patent Milestone Date (as defined below) it shall diligently seek and obtain claims as similar as possible to the claims currently pending in such Applications except where in the exercise of such firm’s professional judgment (and taking Acquiror’s reasonable guidance into consideration) and in response to office actions received from the USPTO, modifications to the claims (including drafting narrower claims, canceling claims and/or pursuing claims in divisional or continuation Applications) are necessary to achieve the issuance of patents, in which case such firm shall be instructed to seek claims as nearly broad as the original claims as reasonably possible (the foregoing being the “Prosecution Instructions”). For the period be tween the date of this Agreement and the Closing Date, Target shall instruct Target’s Patent Firm to prosecute all Applications in accordance with the Prosecution Instructions; provided, however, that (i) such instructions shall not apply with respect to the Acquiror Selected Applications after the Acquiror Selection Date, and (ii) during such period Target’s Patent Firm shall not be required to (but may) seek Acquiror’s guidance. For the purposes of this Section 2.6(m), a patent shall be deemed to have issued from an Application in the event of (i) the actual issuance of any patent by the USPTO with respect to such Application as of the date of such issuance or (ii) the abandonment, by Acquiror or its agent, of the prosecution of any Acquiror Selected Applications or any of the Remaining Applications being prosecuted by Acquiror or its agent. Acquiror shall provide the Stockholders’ Agent with a quarterly written update informing the Stockholders’ Agent as to (x) the issuance by the USPTO of any patents, (y) the receipt by Acquiror, its agent or Target’s Patent Firm of any Notice of Allowance, and (z) the receipt of any office action from the USPTO, in each case with respect to any Applications following the Closing Date until the Patent Milestone Date. Target shall notify Acquiror in writing as soon as reasonably practicable following the issuance of a patent from any Application at any time subsequent to July 21, 2005 and prior to the Closing Date, and Acquiror, in addition to the quarterly reports described above, shall notify the Stockholders’ Agent in writing as soon as reasonably practicable following the issuance or deemed issuance of a patent from any Application at any time subsequent to the Closing Date through the Patent Milestone Date. “Patent Milestone Date” means the date of issuance with respect to the twentieth (20th) patent issuing from the Applications. Upon the Patent Milestone Date, the Stockholders shall be entitled to receive in cash (A) for each share of Target Preferred Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I (excluding shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(h) and Dissenting Shares) an amount equal to two (2) times the Per Share Additional Patent Consideration and (B) for each share of Target Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time of Merger I (excluding shares to be cancelled in accordance with Section 2.6(h) and Dissenting Shares) an amount equal to the Per Share Additional Patent Consideration. Within thirty (30) days after the Patent Milestone Date, Acquiror shall deliver via wire transfer to the Exchange Agent for distribution to the Stockholders the aggregate amount of Per Share Additional Patent Consideration to which the Stockholders are entitled to receive in accordance with the

A-21

	preceding sentence (the “Additional Patent Consideration”). The “Per Share Additional Patent Consideration” shall be equal to $205,000,000 (or such lesser amounts following any offsets pursuant to Section 9, which offsets shall not exceed $75,000,000 in the aggregate), divided by the Fully Diluted Share Number. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Patent Milestone Date occurs prior to the Indemnification Termination Date, then within thirty (30) days of the Patent Milestone Date Acquiror shall deliver via wire transfer to the Exchange Agent for distribution to the Stockholders (I) the amount of the Additional Patent Consideration, less (II) $75,000,000, and less (III) amounts delivered to the Stockholders’ Agent in respect of an Excess Expenses Certificate, and promptly following the Indemnification Termination Date Acquiror shall deliver via wire transfer to the Exchange Agent for distribution to the Stockholders the remaining amount of the Additional Patent Consideration (following any offsets pursuant to Section 9 or amounts delivered to the Stockholders’ Agent in respect of an Excess Expenses Certificate). Notwithstanding the foregoing, at all times following the Patent Milestone Date, Acquiror shall have sole discretion as to continued prosecution of any and all Applications and shall have no further obligations with respect thereto pursuant to this Agreement. If the Patent Milestone Date does not occur on or before the eighth (8th) anniversary of the Closing Date, then Acquiror shall no longer have any obligation to pay the Additional Patent Consideration to the Stockholders.
	(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if (A) at any time the attorney(s) at Target’s Patent Firm who, as of the date of this Agreement, principally work with Target to prepare and file Target’s U.S. patent applications, leave Target’s Patent Firm to practice at another law firm or otherwise become unable or unwilling to prosecute the Target Selected Applications or (B) at any time following the first anniversary of the Closing Date, the Stockholders’ Agent reasonably determines that a different law firm should prosecute the Target Selected Applications (which different law firm shall be selected only with the consent of Acquiror, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld), then the Stockholders’ Agent may, upon written notice to Acquiror, designate such other law firm (provided that prior or current engagement of such law firm by any company adverse to Acquiror in current or threatened litigation shall constitute a reasonable ground for non-acceptance by Acquiror) (the “Subsequent Patent Firm”) to prosecute the Target Selected Applications as provided herein. Promptly after receipt of such designation from Stockholders’ Agent and so as to not compromise prosecution of the Target Selected Applications, Acquiror shall provide Target’s Patent Firm with written notice of termination with respect to the Target Selected Applications and the identity of a representative of the Subsequent Patent Firm to whom such applications should be transferred.

	(ii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 6.1(b), Acquiror shall have the right at any time to require that all Holders suspend open market offers and sales of Registrable Securities whenever, and for so long as, in the reasonable, good-faith judgment of Acquiror after consultation with counsel, there is in existence material undisclosed information or events with respect to Acquiror (the “Suspension Right”).

	(iv) To the fullest extent permitted by law, Acquiror will indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless each selling Holder, each underwriter of Registrable Securities being sold pursuant to this Section 6.1(b), each person, if any, who controls any such Holder or underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act or the Exchange Act and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, partners, successors and assigns (each a “Holder Indemnitee”), against all actions, claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses to which they or any of them become subject under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or under any other statute or at common law or otherwise and, except as hereinafter provided, will promptly reimburse each Holder Indemnitee for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred in connection with investigating or defending any actions whether or not resulting in any liability, insofar as such actions, claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact in any registration statement and any prospectus filed pursuant to Section 6.1(b) or any post-effective amendment thereto or arise out of or are based upon any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or any violation by Acquiror of any rule or regulation promulgated under the Securities Act, the Exchange Act or any statute, regulation or law applicable to Acquiror and relating to action or inaction required of Acquiror in connection with such registration; provided, however, that Acquiror shall not be liable to any such Holder Indemnitee in respect of any actions, claims, losses, damages, liabilities and expenses resulting from any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement, or omission or alleged omission made in reliance upon and in conformity with information furnished in writing to Acquiror by such Holder Indemnitee or any of such Holder Affiliate specifically for use in connection with such registration statement and prospectus or post-effective amendment.

	(vi) Each person entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.1(b) (an “Indemnified Person”) shall give notice to the party required to provide indemnification (the “Indemnifying Person”) promptly

	after such Indemnified Person has actual knowledge of any claim as to which indemnity may be sought and shall permit the Indemnifying Person to assume the defense of any such claim and any litigation resulting therefrom; provided, however, that counsel for the Indemnifying Person who conducts the defense of such claim or any litigation resulting therefrom shall be approved by the Indemnified Person (whose approval shall not unreasonably be withheld), and the Indemnified Person may participate in such defense at such party’s expense (unless the Indemnified Person has reasonably concluded that there may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnifying Person and the Indemnified Person in such action, in which case the fees and expenses of counsel for the Indemnified Person shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Person); and provided, further, that the failure of any Indemnified Person to give notice as provided herein shall not relieve the Indemnifying Person of its obligations under this Section 6.1(b) except to the extent that the Indemnifying Person is materially prejudiced thereby. No Indemnifying Person, in the defense of any such claim or litigation, shall (except with the consent of each Indemnified Person) consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such Indemnified Person of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation. Each Indemnified Person shall furnish such information regarding itself or the claim in question as an Indemnifying Person may reasonably request in writing and as shall be reasonably required in connection with the defense of such claim and litigation resulting therefrom.
	(vii) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution to joint liability under the Securities Act in any case in which any Holder Indemnitee or Acquiror Indemnitee makes a claim for indemnification pursuant to this Section 6.1(b) but it is judicially determined (by the entry of a final judgment or decree by a court of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of time to appeal or the denial of the last right of appeal) that such indemnification may not be enforced in such case notwithstanding that this Section 6.1(b) provides for indemnification in such case, then Acquiror and such Holder shall contribute to the aggregate losses, claims, damages or liabilities to which they may be subject (after contribution from others) in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of Acquiror on the one hand and the Holder on the other in connection with the statements or omissions that resulted in such losses, claims, damages or liabilities, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations or, if the allocation provided herein is not permitted by applicable law, in such proportion as shall be permitted by applicable law and reflect as nearly as possible the allocation provided herein. The relative fault of Acquiror on the one hand and of the Holder on the other shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether the untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by Acquiror on the one hand or by the Holder on the other, and each party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; provided, however, that in any such case (i) no Holder will be required to contribute any amount in excess of the proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities pursuant to the S-3; and (ii) no person or entity guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act will be entitled to contribution from any person or entity who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

	(i) The Stockholders’ Agent is hereby appointed and constituted the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of each Stockholder, with full power in his, her or its name and on his, her or its behalf to act according to the terms of this Agreement in the absolute discretion of the Stockholders’ Agent; and in general to do all things and to perform all acts including, without limitation, executing and delivering any other agreements, certificates, receipts, instructions, notices or instruments contemplated by or deemed advisable in connection with this Agreement.
	(ii) This power of attorney and all authority hereby conferred is granted and shall be irrevocable and shall not be terminated by any act of any Stockholder, by operation of law, whether by such Stockholder’s death, disability protective supervision or any other event. Without limitation to the foregoing, this power of attorney is to ensure the performance of a special obligation and, accordingly, each Stockholder hereby renounces its, his or her right to renounce this power of attorney unilaterally any time before the latest to occur of (A) the termination or resolution of all pending indemnification claims pursuant to Section 9.2 or disputes relating to the Additional Patent Consideration or the Per Share Additional Patent

	Consideration, (B) the eighth (8th) anniversary of the Closing Date, and (C) the complete distribution of the Expenses Fund.
	(iii) Each Stockholder hereby waives any and all defenses which may be available to contest, negate or disaffirm the action of the Stockholders’ Agent taken in good faith under this Agreement.
	(iv) Notwithstanding the power of attorney granted in this Section 9.7(f), no agreement, instrument, acknowledgement or other act or document shall be ineffective by reason only of the Stockholders having signed or given such directly instead of the Stockholders’ Agent.

	(i) The Stockholders’ Agent shall be entitled to withdraw amounts held in the Expenses Fund in reimbursement for out-of-pocket fees and expenses (including legal, accounting and other advisors’ fees and expenses, if applicable) incurred by the Stockholders’ Agent in connection with this Agreement and the transaction contemplated hereby.
	(ii) At the Closing, the Expenses Fund Shares shall be registered in the name of, and, together with the Expenses Fund Cash, shall be deposited with, the Stockholders’ Agent, such deposit(s) and any Additional Expenses Fund Shares (as defined in Section 9.7(j)(iii) below) to constitute the Expenses Fund and to be governed by the terms set forth herein. The Expenses Fund shall be drawn on a pro rata basis from the Merger Consideration payable to each Stockholder. In the event Acquiror issues any Additional Expenses Fund Shares, such shares will be issued in the name of the Stockholders’ Agent and

	delivered to the Stockholders’ Agent in the same manner as the Expenses Fund Shares delivered at the Closing.
	(iii) Except for dividends paid in stock declared with respect to the Expenses Fund Shares (“Additional Expenses Fund Shares”), which shall be treated as Expenses Fund Shares in the Expenses Fund pursuant to Section 9.7(j)(ii) hereof, any cash dividends, dividends payable in securities (other than stock) or other distributions of any kind made in respect of the Expenses Fund Shares or the Expenses Fund Cash will be allocated and released to each Stockholder based on its pro-rata entitlement. On an annual basis, each Stockholder will be allocated its pro rata share of income earned on the Expenses Fund. Each Stockholder will have voting rights with respect to the Expenses Fund Shares and Additional Expenses Fund Shares deposited in the Expenses Fund with respect to such Stockholder so long as such Expenses Fund Shares and Additional Expenses Fund Shares are held as part of the Expenses Fund, and Acquiror will take all reasonable steps necessary to allow the exercise of such rights. While the Expenses Fund Shares and Additional Expenses Fund Shares remain in the Stockholder Agent’s possession, the Stockholders will retain and will be able to exercise all other incidents of ownership of said Expenses Fund Shares and Additional Expenses Fund Shares which are not inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
	(iv) The Stockholders’ Agent shall have the authority to sell all Expenses Fund Shares and Additional Expenses Fund Shares in its discretion.
	(v) Within five (5) business days after the later of (A) the termination or resolution of all pending indemnification claims pursuant to Section 9.2 or disputes relating to the Additional Patent Consideration and (B) the eighth (8th) anniversary of the Closing Date, the Stockholders’ Agent shall release from the Expenses Fund to the Stockholders their pro rata portion of the Expenses Fund Shares, Additional Expenses Fund Shares and Expenses Fund Cash therein. Expenses Fund Shares, Additional Expenses Fund Shares and Expenses Fund Cash shall be released to the respective Stockholders in proportion to their pro rata portion of the Merger Consideration. Acquiror will take such action as may be necessary to cause such certificates representing Expenses Fund Shares and Additional Expenses Fund Shares to be issued in the names of the appropriate persons. No fractional shares shall be released and delivered from the Expenses Fund to the Stockholders. In lieu of any fraction of an Expenses Fund Share or Additional Expenses Fund Share to which a Stockholder would otherwise be entitled, such Stockholder will receive from Acquiror an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent) equal to the product of such fraction multiplied by the Average Closing Price.
	(vi) No Expenses Fund Shares or Additional Expenses Fund Shares or any beneficial interest therein may be pledged, sold, assigned or transferred, including by operation of law, by any Stockholder or be taken or reached by any legal or equitable process in satisfaction of any debt or other liability of any such Stockholder, prior to the delivery to such Stockholder of such Stockholder’s pro rata portion of the Expenses Fund by the Stockholders’ Agent as provided herein.

	(1) Provided, however, that no appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock, which stock, or depository receipts in respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine the stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the meeting of stockholders to act upon the agreement of merger or consolidation, were either (i) listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or (ii) held of record by more than 2,000 holders; and further provided that no appraisal rights shall be available for any shares of stock of the constituent corporation surviving a merger if the merger did not require for its approval the vote of the stockholders of the surviving corporation as provided in subsection (f) of § 251 of this title.
	(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1) of this subsection, appraisal rights under this section shall be available for the shares of any class or series of stock of a constituent corporation if the holders thereof are required by the terms of an agreement of merger or consolidation pursuant to §§ 251, 252, 254, 257, 258, 263 and 264 of this title to accept for such stock anything except:

	a. Shares of stock of the corporation surviving or resulting from such merger or consolidation, or depository receipts in respect thereof;
	b. Shares of stock of any other corporation, or depository receipts in respect thereof, which shares of stock (or depository receipts in respect thereof) or depository receipts at the effective date of the merger or consolidation will be either listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. or held of record by more than 2,000 holders;
	c. Cash in lieu of fractional shares or fractional depository receipts described in the foregoing subparagraphs a. and b. of this paragraph; or

	(3) In the event all of the stock of a subsidiary Delaware corporation party to a merger effected under § 253 of this title is not owned by the parent corporation immediately prior to the merger, appraisal rights shall be available for the shares of the subsidiary Delaware corporation.

	(1) If a proposed merger or consolidation for which appraisal rights are provided under this section is to be submitted for approval at a meeting of stockholders, the corporation, not less than 20 days prior to the meeting, shall notify each of its stockholders who was such on the record date for such meeting with respect to shares for which appraisal rights are available pursuant to subsection (b) or (c) hereof that appraisal rights are available for any or all of the shares of the constituent corporations, and shall include in such notice a copy of this section. Each stockholder electing to demand the appraisal of such stockholder’s shares shall deliver to the corporation, before the taking of the vote on the merger or consolidation, a written demand for appraisal of such stockholder’s shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such stockholder’s shares. A proxy or vote against the merger or consolidation shall not constitute such a demand. A stockholder electing to take such action must do so by a separate written demand as herein provided. Within 10 days after the effective date of such merger or consolidation, the surviving or resulting corporation shall notify each stockholder of each constituent corporation who has complied with this subsection and has not voted in favor of or consented to the merger or consolidation of the date that the merger or consolidation has become effective; or
	(2) If the merger or consolidation was approved pursuant to § 228 or § 253 of this title, then either a constituent corporation before the effective date of the merger or consolidation or the surviving or resulting corporation within 10 days thereafter shall notify each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation who are entitled to appraisal rights of the approval of the merger or consolidation and that appraisal rights are available for any or all shares of such class or series of stock of such constituent corporation, and shall include in such notice a copy of this section. Such notice may, and, if given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, shall, also notify such stockholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation. Any stockholder entitled to appraisal rights may, within 20 days after the date of mailing of such notice, demand in writing from the surviving or resulting corporation the appraisal of such holder’s shares. Such demand will be sufficient if it reasonably informs the corporation of the identity of the stockholder and that the stockholder intends thereby to demand the appraisal of such holder’s shares. If such notice did not notify stockholders of the effective date of the merger or consolidation, either (i) each such constituent corporation shall send a second notice before the effective date of the merger or consolidation notifying each of the holders of any class or series of stock of such constituent corporation that are entitled to appraisal rights of the effective date of the merger or consolidation or (ii) the surviving or resulting corporation shall send such a second notice to all such holders on or within 10 days after such effective date; provided, however, that if such second notice is sent more than 20 days following the sending of the first notice, such second notice need only be sent to each stockholder who is entitled to appraisal rights and who has demanded appraisal of such holder’s shares in accordance with this subsection. An affidavit of the secretary or assistant secretary or of the transfer agent of the corporation that is required to give either notice that such notice has been given shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein. For purposes of determining the stockholders entitled to receive either notice, each constituent corporation may fix, in advance, a record date that shall be not more than 10 days prior to the date the notice is given, provided, that if the notice is given on or after the effective date of the merger or consolidation, the record date shall

If at any time or from time to time there shall be a merger or consolidation of the Corporation with or into another Corporation, or the sale of all or substantially all of the Corporation’s properties and assets to any other person (other than an event described in paragraph 4(c), unless the requisite number of holders of Preferred Stock have elected not to treat such event as a liquidation for purposes of such paragraph), then, as part of such merger, consolidation or sale, provision shall be made so that the holders of Preferred Stock shall be entitled to receive upon consummation of such transaction, the number of shares of stock or other securities or property of the Corporation, or of the successor corporation resulting from such merger, consolidation or sale, to which a holder of Common Stock issuable upon conversion would have been entitled upon consummation of such merger had such holder’s Preferred Stock been converted into Common Stock prior to such merger, consolidation or sale, provided that no such provision shall be deemed to constitute the consent of the holders of Preferred Stock to any such transaction if such consent is required by this Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or under applicable law, and provided further that the provisions of this paragraph 5(g) shall not apply to the transactions contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization, entered into by and among QUALCOMM Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (“Acquiror”), Fluorite Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary
