Mattel Becomes 40th Licensee, Setting a Major Milestone in Moore Microprocessor Patent(TM) Licensing Program

Patriot Scientific (OTCBB:PTSC) announced today that Mattel, Inc. has purchased a Moore Microprocessor Patent™ (MMP) Portfolio license from The TPL Group, Patriot’s exclusive licensing partner. Mattel designs, manufactures and markets toys under a variety of iconic brands. "Mattel’s purchase of an MMP license is yet another example of the widespread use of MMP Portfolio technology,” said Roy Maharaj, vice president of licensing for Alliacense. "All producers of microprocessor-based products and dependent services should be placing high priority on the purchase of a license for the fundamental MMP Portfolio technologies to reduce related financial exposure.” "The rate of licensing has accelerated in the last few months, and we’re pleased to welcome Mattel to the group,” said Jim Turley, Patriot Scientific’s president and CEO. "Microprocessor chips are truly ubiquitous and this latest signing just reinforces the point.” The sweeping scope of applications using MMP Portfolio design techniques continues to encourage the world’s leading manufacturers of end-user products from around the globe to become MMP Portfolio licensees. Forty global companies from the US, Europe, Japan, Korea and Taiwan have licensed the MMP Portfolio technologies, including many industry leaders such as Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, Kenwood, Nokia, Philips, Sony and Toshiba.
