Motorola Purchases License to Use Command Audio’s PVR Technology

Command Audio Corp., a pioneer in the development of broadcast on-demand media technology, today announced that Motorola, Inc. (NYSE:MOT) has purchased a license to use Command Audio’s patented PVR (personal video recorder, also known as digital video recorder, or DVR) technology.

The companies also jointly filed a motion in U.S. District Court, Northern District of California, to dismiss the litigation pending between them.

Under the terms of the license agreement, Motorola, a leading global supplier of video set-top boxes and cell phones and other mobile devices, purchased a license to use Command Audio’s patented technology. The worldwide agreement runs for the life of Command Audio’s patents. No financial terms were disclosed.

Other Command Audio licensees include industry leaders in the consumer and automotive electronics fields, including Scientific Atlanta (a Cisco company) (NASDAQ:CSCO), ReplayTV®, Sony (NYSE:SNE), XM Satellite Radio (now a part of Sirius XM) (NASDAQ:SIRI) and iBiquity Digital’s HD Radio™.

“Our patents are critical to the time-shifting functionality and convenience that TV viewers are increasingly demanding,” said Don Bogue, Chairman/CEO of Command Audio. “Our new license agreement with Motorola, covering its set-top box and mobile device products, reinforces the strength and value of our patents in the enormous and fast-growing market for products with PVR functionality. We expect continued success as we actively protect and license our intellectual property.”

Industry analysts estimate that there were more than 40 million PVR units of all types sold in 2008. Over the past five years the industry has grown at a rate of more than 20 percent per year.

Command Audio holds more than 60 U.S. and foreign patents with applications that span the television, personal computer, digital radio, cell phone and game console industries.

“The demand for devices and services that provide consumers convenient time-shifting functionality for broadcast media is growing rapidly in each of our target markets,” said Bogue. “The Motorola agreement speaks to our ability to license our technology to the most innovative participants in these fast-growing markets.”
