"They have no choice but to say what exactly they said. They stilll have a valid patent...until the final closure of the reexam."

Of course the patent is valid until the end of the re-ex, but if Mr. Davis states it like he did, he has to bring some valid arguments to the negotiations table. Otherwise the companies would simply wait for the end of the re-ex, because they knew TPL had no additional argument against the new prior art.

What I'm trying to say:

Every accused company could immediately stop any negotiations with Davis and his team, in order to wait for the end of the re-ex - OR TPL/alliacense delivers the right arguments already TODAY.

If they don't have the right arguments today, it means IMHO, that there would come no more signings until the re-ex is closed...or am I wrong on this?
