or 44% (including verdict insurance proceeds and related costs) in the comparable prior year quarter. The increase in total revenues,
less inventor royalties expense and contingent legal fees expense as a percentage of total revenues was due primarily to lower
inventor royalty rates for the portfolios generating revenues during the three months ended September 30, 2012, as compared to
the portfolios generating revenues in the comparable prior year quarter. In addition, inventor royalties expense for the third
quarter of 2012 included a credit of $2,600,000 related to inventor royalties originally expensed in the second quarter of 2012,
which based on certain events occurring in the third quarter of 2012, were no longer payable pursuant to the terms of the underlying

purposes, any excess tax benefit is recognized as a credit to additional paid-in capital, as the expense does not reflect cash
taxes payable. The deductions related to the exercise and vesting of equity-based incentive awards are available to offset taxable
income on our consolidated tax returns. Accordingly, the noncash tax expense calculated without the excess benefit, totaling approximately
$7.7 million and $1.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, was credited to additional paid-in

</B></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; text-indent: 0.5in; margin-right: 0; margin-left: 0">As used herein, &ldquo;GAAP&rdquo;
refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. To supplement our consolidated financial statements
prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, this earnings release includes financial measures, including (1) non-GAAP net income
and (2) non-GAAP Earnings Per Share (&ldquo;EPS&rdquo;), that are considered non-GAAP financial measures as defined in Rule 101
of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure
of a company's historical or future performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that
are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP.
The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or
superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">We use these non-GAAP
financial measures for internal financial and operational decision making purposes and as a means to evaluate period-to-period
comparisons of the performance and results of operations of our core business. Our management believes that these non-GAAP financial
measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the performance of our core business by excluding non-cash stock
compensation charges, non-cash patent amortization charges and excess benefit related non-cash tax expense, that may not be indicative
of our recurring core business operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management&rsquo;s internal
planning and comparisons to our historical performance and liquidity. We believe these non-GAAP financial measures are useful to
investors as they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational
decision making and are used by our institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the performance and
operational results of our core business.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in"><I>Non-GAAP Net income and EPS.</I>&nbsp;We
define non-GAAP net income as net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, plus non-cash stock compensation charges, non-cash
patent amortization charges and excess benefit related non-cash tax expense. Non-GAAP EPS is defined as non-GAAP net income divided
by the weighted average outstanding shares, on a fully-diluted basis, calculated in accordance with GAAP, for the respective reporting
period.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">Due to the inherent volatility in stock
prices, the use of estimates and assumptions in connection with the valuation and expensing of share-based awards and the variety
of award types that companies can issue under FASB ASC Topic 718, management believes that providing a non-GAAP financial measure
that excludes non-cash stock compensation allows investors to make meaningful comparisons between our recurring core business operating
results and those of other companies, as well as providing our management with a critical tool for financial and operational decision
making and for evaluating our own period-to-period recurring core business operating results. Similarly, due to the variability
associated with the timing and amount of patent acquisition payments and estimates inherent in the capitalization and amortization
of patent acquisition costs, management believes that providing a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes non-cash patent amortization
charges allows investors to make meaningful comparisons between our recurring core business operating results and those of other
companies, and also provides our management with a useful tool for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating
our own period-to-period recurring core business operating results. Lastly, for financial reporting purposes, tax expense is required
to be calculated without the excess tax benefit related to the exercise and vesting of equity-based incentive awards, however,
the deduction related to the exercise and vesting of equity-based incentive awards is available to offset taxable income on our
consolidated tax returns. Accordingly, the non-cash tax expense calculated without the excess benefit for financial statement purposes
is credited to additional paid-in capital, not taxes payable, and does not represent a cash tax obligation. Management believes
that providing a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes excess benefit related non-cash tax expense allows investors to asses
our net results and the economic impact of income taxes based largely on cash tax obligations, make more meaningful comparisons
between our recurring core business net results and those of other companies, and also provides our management with a useful tool
for financial and operational decision making and for evaluating our own period-to-period recurring core business net results.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; text-indent: 0.5in">There are a number of limitations related
to the use of non-GAAP net income and EPS versus net income and EPS calculated in accordance with GAAP. For example, non-GAAP
net income excludes significant non-cash stock compensation charges, non-cash patent amortization charges and excess benefit related
non-cash tax expense that are recurring, and will continue to be recurring for the foreseeable future. In addition, non-cash stock
compensation is a critical component of our employee compensation programs and non-cash patent amortization reflects the cost
of certain patent portfolio acquisitions, amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated economic useful life of the respective
patent portfolio, and may reflect the acceleration of amortization related to recoupable up-front patent portfolio acquisition
costs. Management compensates for these limitations by providing specific information regarding the GAAP amounts excluded from
non-GAAP net income and EPS and evaluating non-GAAP net income and EPS in conjunction with net income and EPS calculated in accordance
with GAAP.</P>

the meaning of the &ldquo;safe harbor&rdquo; provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.&nbsp; These statements
are based upon our current expectations and speak only as of the date hereof.&nbsp; Our ability to become the licensing partner
for companies, and our actual results may differ materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking statements
as a result of various factors and uncertainties, including the effect of the global economic downturn on technology companies,
the ability to successfully develop licensing programs and attract new business, rapid technological change in relevant markets,
changes in demand for current and future intellectual property rights, legislative, regulatory and competitive developments addressing
licensing and enforcement of patents and/or intellectual property in general and general economic conditions.&nbsp; Our Annual
