In September, we reached an agreement with Beatie and Osborn LLP of New York to become our lead law firm to represent our licensing and enforcement objectives. Due to the strength of our patent portfolio coupled with the size of the market benefiting from our protected technology, this prestigious firm is representing us on a contingent basis. Additionally, we have obtained an independent third party opinion favorably evaluating our core technology in the microprocessor area. This strengthens our optimism to the likelihood of compliance success in multiple and sizeable market segments. PTSC expects to commence this process by contacting a number of companies in early May. We are contacting companies that use microprocessors with capabilities greater than 120 MHz. I remain confident the results of this accelerated effort will increase shareholder value in the near future."
