Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

InterDigital, Inc.'s subsidiary, InterDigital Technology Corporation, has
entered into an Amendment to Patent License Agreement ("Amendment"), effective
as of January 1, 2007 with NEC Corporation ("NEC"). The Amendment modifies the
parties' Narrowband CDMA and Third Generation Patent License Agreement dated
January 15, 2002 ("Agreement"). Under the terms of the Amendment, in exchange
for a gradual reduction in royalty rates applicable to sales of covered products
under the Agreement, the parties have agreed to eliminate NEC's most favored
licensee rights applicable to such products. Under the Amendment, NEC and
InterDigital Technology Corporation also agreed that the Agreement will expire
on December 31, 2015, and in advance of such expiration date, to negotiate the
royalty rates applicable to Narrowband CDMA and Third Generation products for
2016 and thereafter.

InterDigital Technology Corporation and NEC are also parties to a Patent License
Agreement dated May 8, 1995 covering TDMA-based 2G products which remains in
place.
