oldog, in the case of LG, would LG not have to pay additional licensing fees to use IDCC's newly acquired patents and if so, at what rates?

[nicmar]

Let's say nokia is paying qualcom $1000 for qualcom's patents and nokia is paying idcc $500 for idcc's patents. Qualcom purchases idcc. Does nokia now owe qualcom $1000 in the ongoing fees or do they owe $1500 to qualcom? .. nic
