< Any announcement of dividends that is "await[ing] a certain negotiation outcome" would be dependent upon the litigation events I mentioned such as Markman rulings,

I had no idea what that was when you first mentioned it, and still don't.

< The Company has paid dividends before,>

Not only have paid them before, but gave an indication that is the plan for the future. You would rather any decision as to what PTSC does with future income be decided by PTSC management?>
