ParkerVision Petition for Panel Rehearing Denied

ParkerVision, Inc.

(NASDAQ:PRKR)

(the "Company")

 announced today that the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ("CAFC") denied its petition for a panel rehearing of the CAFC's non-infringement decision in ParkerVision v. Qualcomm.

ParkerVision's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, Jeffrey Parker, commented, "We believe our petition brief clearly conveyed the simple fact that Qualcomm's 25% duty cycle products would be inoperable if they worked in the way Qualcomm represented. Although rehearing petitions are not frequently granted, we were hopeful that the technical misunderstandings in this case would provide sufficient basis for the panel to revisit its decision. Unfortunately, while that was not the case, as the CAFC denied our petition, Qualcomm's representations will follow them into other court actions. We look forward to showing that Qualcomm's sampling downconverters are based on ParkerVision's energy transfer sampling technology, and that contrary to Qualcomm's representation, they cannot make a baseband signal that is usable in a cell phone without the use of energy storage devices."

Parker continued, "Meanwhile, we are currently evaluating what next steps are available for ParkerVision to pursue in this specific case."
