Employees And Compensation

Here are some facts, Tilden was looking for a job and needed one when he was hired, Fagan was looking for a job when he was hired, now I believe Hicks was looking for work when he was hired. The engineers was looking for work as the industry has been laying off engineers like there was no tomorrow. Look at Motorola, Lucent, Ericsson, Nokia, Northen Telecom even QCOM to name a few, so IDCC wasn't hurting to find engineers, it was engineers who was hurting for work. Now if there is a one of them that will produce more because they have a option package I would like to know who it is. I also would like any employee that says he or she couldn't work any longer at IDCC because they don't have a option package to step forward, and I promise with in a week that job would be filled and probably by a harder worker who wants a job.

Our attorneys have been well paid for years and well we can see how many license agreements that had real teeth in it were attained. I would put the same proposal about options to the attorneys and officers as the engineers and every day workers, and if any one of them wouldn't work any longer unless they had options, then the door would be hitting them squarely in the rear.
