Can't wait to see those indicative ADT #s...will definitely give a clear picture as to how much weight VRNG is throwing around in negotiations, apart from TYCO settlement #s

Clearly this settlement is good news for VRNG. A positive development and more proof VRNG is executing its plan.

As for confidentiality, that's not something dependent on ADT. That's the reality of patent licensing. Companies want the terms of these deals kept confidential for a number of reasons. Please do some DD on any other successful patent licensing company of the last few years. Just any one. And you will be enlightened as to how this sector actually operates.

While we won't see the terms, we may eventually learn the value of these deals by looking at financial reports and other filings in the future. It probably will not be as amazingly bullish as you believe because VRNG is not going to receive a flat percentage of these companies' revenues. They will, at best, be able to generate a decent income stream off the proportional revenues generated from the agreed upon value that covers the enhancements allowed for by VRNG's intellectual property.

That is assuming it is a variable agreement based on specific units. It could be a fixed license. We don't know the terms.
