07:06 EDTTSRATessera, hynix enter into eight-year patent licensing agreements
Tessera Technologies announced that its Tessera, Inc. and Invensas Corporation subsidiaries each entered into new eight-year patent license agreements with SK hynix Inc. The companies did not disclose the specific financial terms of the agreements, under which SK hynix will make a one-time payment and pay running royalties. The agreement will result in an increase in the company’s recurring royalty revenues from SK hynix beginning in Q2 2013 because the company reports royalties one quarter in arrears. The company and SK hynix also agreed to dismiss the antitrust lawsuit pending in California state court. The company is neither updating its financial guidance nor providing additional financial guidance in connection with this milestone.

08:32 EDTTSRAStarboard issues open letter to Tessera shareholders
"Just a few short months ago, Tessera was severely broken. The Board was in disarray and extremely dysfunctional, high levels of turnover persisted at the executive ranks, and there was no end in sight for the extended period of dramatic financial and stock price underperformance that we as shareholders had been forced to endure for far too long. Starboard therefore undertook, on behalf of shareholders, an intensive process to identify a world-class slate of director candidates committed to executing a thorough strategic turnaround at Tessera. Left to its own devices and absent external pressure, it did not appear that the Board would take such initiative on its own to address the Company's many deficiencies and shortcomings. Throughout this campaign, we have endeavored to gain your support based on presenting the facts, outlining our detailed action plan, and proposing a clearly superior slate of director nominees with specifically relevant credentials for Tessera. Unfortunately, management and the Board have taken a very different approach in this contest. They have repeatedly attempted to misrepresent our plan for Tessera, make false claims about our director nominees, and use manipulative tactics to make late-stage corporate governance changes to tip the balance in their favor... We are very pleased by Amici Capital's endorsement and support for our entire slate of director nominees at the upcoming Annual Meeting. Amici Capital's conclusion is largelysupported by the recent report issued by Glass Lewis, a leading proxy advisory firm, in which Glass Lewis recommended shareholders vote on Starboard's WHITE proxy card to elect four of our nominees to the Board."
