Nokia has failed to comply with the Award..Their PLA license and or the Arbitral Award itself may well have provided for some penalty for failure to perform.IMO:The Mandate to remit is more comprehensive than the Published information..

"The establishment of a relatively short time frame for
Nokia to submit payment to InterDigital for royalties
associated with sales of covered products from January 1,
2002 through June 30, 2005."


What did the Court of Appeals rule in Mastrobuono? It sounds to me as though they ruled that the arbitrators didn't have the right to grant punitive damages. The Supremes reversed. Ergo, by choice of laws, by entering into the subject contract, the defendants (NOK) had put themselves in harm's way and if the arbitrators granted punitive damages (or punished them in some other fashion), so be it.
