Thanks Jay - Looks like the answer is that EON and LMT are limited in the use of even their own patents worldwide.

Eontec gives to Liquidmetal: Upon the terms and conditions set forth herein (including the termination provisions in Article 7 hereof) and subject to the Field of Use Restrictions, Eontec hereby grants to LMT a non-revocable, paid-up, royalty-free, perpetual license (or sublicense, as the case may be) to the Eontec Licensed Patents and Eontec Licensed Technical Information to make, have made, use, offer to sell, sell, export and import LMT Licensed Products within the LMT Field in the LMT Exclusive Territory and Non-Exclusive Territories. Such license shall be exclusive to LMT (including to the exclusion of Eontec and its Affiliates) in the LMT Exclusive Territory and shall be non-exclusive in the Non-Exclusive Territories. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit LMT from engaging in research or development activities in the Eontec Exclusive Territory.

Therefore, EON may use its own patents in a deal with TESLA, but Liquidmetal would still get all the profits from that deal stemming from sales in Europe or NA.
