I think it will be more than 5% but let's assume you are correct:

"The other 5% or so that are GSM-only in nature will be ultra low cost types of handsets; hence, the amount of money lost there will be minimal."

I don't know when 5% is considered minimal. And if it's so minimal then why wouldn't Ericsson have agreed to pay a couple more years? My guess is GSM-only handsets will still be at least 10% of the market in three years. That's nothing to sneeze at and it could be a lot more than that if WCDMA stumbles a little more.
