                                   Background

Nokia and IDC entered into a Master Agreement, Patent License Agreement, and a
TDD Development Agreement, each effective as of January 29, 1999. The parties
wish to amend the Master Agreement and TDD Development Agreement as provided
herein.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and promises made herein, the
parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:

                                    Agreement

1.   New Definitions. The following new definitions are added to the Master
     Agreement:

     "2a. "Base TDD Project" means the TDD Project described in Exhibit 1 to
          this Amendment Agreement."

<PAGE>

     "28a. "Nokia Cap" means $US59,000,000."

2.   New TDD Project Definition. The parties hereby adopt the Base TDD Project
     as the TDD Project to be undertaken by the parties pursuant to the terms of
     the Master Agreement and Related Agreements, as amended herein. Exhibit 1
     hereto is hereby incorporated and made part of the Work Plans and
     Specifications. Any portions of the Work Plans and Specifications as of the
     Effective Date that are inconsistent with the provisions of Exhibit 1,
     either express or implied, are hereby superceded by Exhibit 1 hereto.
     Changes to the TDD Project shall be made in accordance with terms of the
     TDD Development Agreement, as amended herein.

3.   Adoption of Cap and Payment Schedule For Reimbursement of Base TDD Project
     Costs Nokia and IDC hereby agree to modify the compensation terms of the
     TDD Development Agreement, from a time and materials basis without a cap,
     to payments schedule with a cap, as follows:

     A.   Section 5.1 is hereby replaced in its entirety with the following:

          "Compensation. IDC will be paid for its reimbursable costs incurred in
          the Base TDD Project in accordance with Exhibit 2, such reimbursable
          costs to be (i) [**] Nokia shall reimburse IDC in accordance with the
          following payment schedule:

             (i)    For services rendered by IDC during 2001, IDC will be paid
                    [**].

             (ii)   For monthly services rendered by IDC commencing January 1,
                    2002, Nokia shall pay IDC [**].

             (iii)  Upon final delivery of all deliverables as set forth in the
                    Work Plans and Specifications, Nokia shall pay IDC the
                    lesser of [**]

             Nokia's commitment hereunder shall cover only costs and fees
             incurred in accordance with this Agreement, the Work Plans and
             Specifications, and the Compensation Schedule, or future amendments
             or revisions thereto. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Nokia shall
             continue to be

             responsible to pay costs related to Jointly Developed Patent Rights
             in accordance with Section 4.4 of the Agreement, and for resolving
             patent ownership disputes in accordance with Section 4.5."

4.   Changes to the Work Plans and Specifications. As regards the Base TDD
     Project, the review and approval of the associated TDD Project Budget shall
     be as set forth in the TDD Development Agreement except as modified under
     Section 5 hereto. Any changes to the Work Plans and Specifications shall be
     made in accordance with the TDD Development Agreement. Notwithstanding
     anything in this Agreement or in the TDD Development Agreement to the
     contrary, any change to the Work Plans and Specifications representing an
     increase in effort or expansion of the Base TDD Project shall be approved
     by the parties in writing prior to implementation. The Project Managers
     shall have the authority to jointly approve such changes to the Work Plans
     and Specifications provided the increased effort is not expected to exceed
     $500,000.

5.   Changes to Budgeting, Invoicing and Penalty Provisions. If the Total TDD
     Project Cost for the Base TDD Project has exceeded the Nokia Cap, then,
     other than providing on a one time basis the details reasonably necessary
     to demonstrate that the Total TDD Project Cost has exceeded the Nokia Cap,
     IDC shall have no further obligation to report costs, budget changes or
     other financial related information to Nokia as otherwise required in the
     Agreement. In addition, Nokia shall no longer have approval rights as
     regards any expenditures made by IDC in the implementation of the Work
     Plans and Specifications. In addition, in consideration of IDC limiting
     Nokia's reimbursement responsibility to the Nokia Cap for the Base TDD
     Project as provided herein, the penalty related to cost overruns set forth
     in Section 2.7.3 of the TDD Development Agreement is hereby deleted. The
     above limitation shall not apply to any additional effort being provided by
     IDC under different economic terms and conditions, as set forth in Section
     4 hereto.

6.   Joint Cooperation on RRM/Continued Support. Nokia and IDC shall cooperate
     with regard to Radio Resource Management technology development to assess,
     investigate and determine appropriate solutions for the interference
     issues. Without otherwise limiting Nokia's obligations under the Work Plans
     and Specifications, Nokia also agrees to maintain

                                       3

<PAGE>

     at least the same level of support as regards the project (including
     standards support) as has been provided by Nokia historically over the term
     of the project.

7.   TDD Technology Transfer. Section 4.9.3 of the TDD Development Agreement is
     hereby amended to eliminate the grace periods under subparagraphs (i),
     (ii), and (iv).

8.   Amendment to Termination Liability. Section 9.4 ("Termination for
     Convenience") is hereby deleted.

9.   Additional Termination Right. The parties will meet on a regular basis to
     discuss the future market applications for TDD. In the event that due to
     the availability of other competing technologies or other factors, UTRA TDD
     technology is projected with a reasonable degree of certainty as having no
     relevant market application, IDC and Nokia shall meet to discuss
     termination of the project, an agreement to do such, in view of the above
     circumstances, will be made in good faith and not unreasonably withheld or
     delayed.

10.  Intellectual Property Rights. Except as otherwise expressly stated by Nokia
     in writing in respect of particular parts ("Sensitive Cells") at the time
     of disclosure to IDC (such designation requirement to be strictly
     enforced), the license for IDC and its Affiliates under the Nokia Licensed
     TDD Technology (but not as to Developed Patents and any patent rights under
     any pending patent applications), as set forth in Section 4.3.1 of the TDD
     Development Agreement, shall include any product of IDC (including, without
     limitation semiconductors, integrated circuits, software, radio equipment,
     IP blocks, etc.) actually used or intended to be used in connection with
     the manufacture or installation of TDD Products ("IDC TDD Components"),
     including when such IDC TDD Components are not used as part and within
     licensed products, and test equipment. It is hereby understood and agreed
     that (i) Sensitive Cells shall exclude any Technical Information disclosed
     by Nokia to IDC as of the Effective Date of this Amendment, (ii)
     understanding that IDC needs to have licensable IP as a product of this
     Base TDD Project, Nokia shall limit designating Sensitive Cells to
     exceptional circumstances, and (iii) IDC may, after good faith discussion
     with Nokia, decline to accept and/or utilize

                                       4

<PAGE>

     Sensitive Cells in the Base TDD Project to the extent such acceptance or
     use may materially adversely impact the licensability of the Developed
     Technology. Nokia's non-assert, as set forth in Section 4.3.4 of the TDD
     Development Agreement, shall also apply to IDC TDD Components in addition
     to TDD ASICs and modems but solely in respect of TDD portion of such
     products (and excluding, without limitation, any possible GSM or FDD
     portion in the same product). Moreover, as used in Sections 4.2 and 4.3 of
     the TDD Development Agreement, TDD Products shall be interpreted to include
     test equipment for TDD Products. In addition, IDC and Nokia will be
     permitted to provide spare parts for test equipment (Nokia's right being
     limited to spare parts for the test equipment supplied by Nokia), as set
     forth in Section 4.7.1 of the TDD Development Agreement. The licenses
     granted for Nokia and its Affiliates as set forth in Section 4.2.1 of the
     TDD Development Agreement shall also include the licenses to any Developed
     Patents of IDC under the TDD Program Plan Revision D with the exception of
     Patents relating to the software implementation of the protocol stack (not
     related to the-systems work) of L2/3 Release 2 features (e.g. handover,
     mobility procedures, temporary DCH RRM (escape mechanisms and load
     balancing), etc.). Contingent upon Nokia and InterDigital executing an
     agreement on a future TDD program, InterDigital shall grant Nokia a license
     under the terms of section 4.2.1 to the Patents developed under the TDD
     Program Plan Revision D that are excepted under the preceding sentence.
     Nothing contained in this provision shall obligate InterDigital to perform
     any work under the TDD Program Plan Revision D other than the work
     encompassing the Base TDD Project under this Amendment

     For the avoidance of doubt, and to avoid the need to disclose the contents
     of the Agreements and this Amendment to customers seeking to license TDD
     Technology or purchase TDD components from IDC, or to foundries producing
     TDD products for sale, Nokia and IDC will mutually agree on a holding
     statement that can be provided on a confidential basis to customer and
     other vendors, acknowledging (i) that IDC owns all of the TDD Technology it
     developed under the Agreements and this Amendment, (ii) that IDC has
     secured sufficient and appropriate rights as regards any Nokia TDD
     Technology included in the results of such projects for the purpose of
     licensing third parties to manufacture and sell TDD products, and (iii)
     that such rights as regards any Nokia Patents are conditional on such third
     parties not asserting their Patents against Nokia Group.

                                       5

<PAGE>

11.  Continued Cooperation. Without limiting either party's ability to pursue
     their own business interests, IDC and Nokia shall continue to cooperate and
     communicate on potential future activities on TDD so that, if desirable,
     the parties can promptly undertake such activities if and when market
     conditions and circumstances are appropriate. In this regard, IDC and Nokia
     shall maintain a regular, frequent dialog on each other's views on TDD.
     Further, in the event Nokia determines to pursue TDD activities beyond the
     Base TDD Project, it shall first meet with IDC with the view of providing
     IDC with the first opportunity to meet Nokia's development needs.

12.  Future Cooperation. Contingent upon Nokia and InterDigital executing an
     agreement on a future TDD program, InterDigital shall provide to Nokia any
     TDD technology items which were deliverables under the TDD Program Plan
     Revision D, but are not part of the deliverables under this Amendment,
     provided:

     i    InterDigital has the right to grant licenses to such deliverables, and

     ii   Nokia compensates InterDigital for any mutually agreed upon,
        incremental expenses (e.g., equipment or labor associated with the test
        platform or license fees payable to third parties in connection with any
        license granted under section 12(i) above).

     Nothing contained in this provision shall obligate InterDigital to perform
     any work under the TDD Program Plan Revision D other than the work
     encompassing the Base TDD Project under this Amendment.

13.  Miscellaneous. All of the terms and conditions of the Master Agreement are
     hereby incorporated herein by reference. Unless modified herein, all other
     terms and conditions of the Master Agreement and Related Agreements remain
     unaltered and in full force and effect. This Amendment Agreement shall be
     subject to the terms of the Master Agreement unless inconsistent with the
     terms in this Agreement. All Exhibits and other attachments to this
     Amendment Agreement which are referred to herein are hereby incorporated in
     and made a part of this Agreement. This Amendment Agreement contains the
     complete and final agreement between the parties, and supersedes all
     previous understandings relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof
     whether oral or written. This Amendment Agreement may only be modified by a
     written agreement signed by duly

                                       6

     authorized representatives of the parties. This Amendment Agreement may be
     executed by the parties in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an
     original of the applicable document. Signatures provided by facsimile or
     other electronic means by any party shall be valid and enforceable upon
     delivery to the other parties hereto.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Amendment Agreement by their
duly authorized representatives.

<PAGE>

     (B)  Upon the Patent Issuance Date, for all Covered Subscriber Units sold
          on or after April 1, 1998 for which the manufacture, sale and use of
          such equipment (or components thereof) shall occur within the country
          of Japan.

     In the event that the Patent Issuance has not occurred, ITC and Licensee
     shall negotiate in good faith the commencement of royalty payments
     hereunder based on other ITC Patents issued in Japan. Any disputes arising
     under this Section shall be subject to the Dispute Resolution procedures
     set forth in Article VII.

                          ARTICLE IV - LUMP SUM PAYMENT

4.1  Lump Sum Payment. In consideration for the rights granted herein, Licensee
     shall pay an Up-Front Fee to ITC in the amount of $US4,444,000. Licensee
     shall also pay the amount of $US1,111,000 as a Royalty Prepayment for
     Covered Subscriber Units sold on and after April 1, 1998. The above
     payments shall be irrevocable and non-refundable. The above-mentioned
     aggregated $US5,555,000 shall be paid by Licensee to ITC within thirty (30)
     days after the execution of this Agreement.

                        ARTICLE V - PASS-THROUGH LICENSE

5.1  Pass-Through License. Provided Licensee is not in default of its
     obligations hereunder, Licensee's customers that are operators and
     end-users but who are not also suppliers (other than retail) will receive a
     pass-through license for sale (including lease) or use of Covered
     Subscriber Units. Neither this Agreement nor any payments made hereunder,
     are intended, nor should they be construed, as exhausting ITC's rights to
     royalties or damages from unlicensed purchasers.

                         ARTICLE VI - TERM/TERMINATION

6.1  Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence on the Effective Date and
     terminate five (5) years thereafter, unless sooner terminated as provided
     herein. Any extensions to this Agreement shall be made by mutual agreement
     of the parties, subject to each party's discretion.

6.2  Termination for Default. This Agreement may be canceled by either party,
     upon thirty (30) days' prior written notice, if the other party is in
     breach of any of its material obligations hereunder and the breach is not
     remedied within the notice period. During the term of this Agreement, if
     Licensee institutes or actively participates as an adverse party in, or
     otherwise provides material support to, any legal action anywhere in the
     world, the purpose of which is to invalidate or limit the validity or scope
     of the Licensed Patents, ITC shall have the right to consider

                                       6

<PAGE>

     such action as a material breach of this Agreement. Licensee's other
     material obligations shall include, but shall not be limited to, its
     royalty reporting and payment obligations.

                        ARTICLE VII - DISPUTE RESOLUTION

7.1  Negotiation of Disputes. In the event of any dispute arising under this
     Agreement, senior executives of the parties with decision making authority
     will meet in Wilmington, Delaware, unless some other city as may be
     agreeable to the parties, as soon as reasonably possible (but no later than
     sixty (60) days after notice) and will enter into good faith negotiations
     aimed at resolving the dispute. If they are unable to resolve the dispute
     in a mutually satisfactory manner within an additional sixty (60) days, the
     matter may be submitted to mediation/arbitration as provided for in
     Sections 7.2 and 7.3 hereto

7.2  Mediation of Disputes. The parties agree to submit any unresolved dispute
     to a sole mediator selected by the parties as soon as reasonably possible
     (but no later than sixty (60) days after notice). Such mediation shall
     occur in Wilmington, DE. If not thus resolved, the parties will proceed as
     specified in Section 7.3 hereto.

7.3  Arbitration of Disputes. Any unresolved disputes arising under this
     Agreement shall be submitted to an arbitration proceeding which shall take
     place in Washington, D.C. The proceeding shall be conducted under the then
     prevailing rules for commercial arbitration of the American Arbitration
     Association, by a panel of three (3) arbitrators, one of whom must have
     substantial experience in the field of telecommunications. Each party shall
     select one arbitrator and the two arbitrators will select the third
     arbitrator. The arbitrators shall have the authority to permit limited
     discovery to the extent required by a party in order to establish its case.
     The decision of the arbitrators shall be final and binding and may be
     entered and enforced in any court of competent jurisdiction. Any monetary
     award shall be payable in U.S. dollars, free of any tax, offset or other
     deduction. Any determination of the arbitration shall be confidential to
     the parties hereto and binding solely on the parties hereto.

                          ARTICLE VIII - MISCELLANEOUS

8.1  Payments. Payments made pursuant to Sections 4.1 shall be made by wire
     transfer in U.S. dollars at License Agreement execution. All other payments
     required under this Agreement shall be made by wire transfer in U.S.
     dollars on a semi-annual basis by February 28 for the preceding six-month
     period ending December 31 and August 31 for the preceding six-month period
     ending June 30.

                                       7

<PAGE>

     Regardless of whether payment is made, Licensee shall provide ITC (at the
     same times as noted above) with a written report and associated
     certification setting forth the quantity of each type of Covered Subscriber
     Units sold, and additional information sufficient to determine the
     royalties payable for such Covered Subscriber Units. All such reports shall
     be held in confidence by ITC.

8.2  Taxes. All royalties payable hereunder are net of and free and clear from
     any applicable taxes (whether based on income or otherwise), which taxes
     shall be paid by Licensee on a grossed up basis, except any applicable
     Japanese source withholding taxes which shall be deducted by Licensee from
     amounts payable to ITC hereunder. On the basis of such deduction, Licensee
     agrees that it shall be responsible for and pay, on ITC's behalf, the
     withholding tax associated with the payments set forth under Section 3.1
     and 4.1 hereto. Licensee will furnish ITC with appropriate documentation
     evidencing the payment of such tax as issued by the appropriate authority
     of such government.

8.3  Most Favored Licensee Rights. Provided Licensee is not in default of its
     obligations hereunder, the Licensee shall be treated as a most favored
     licensee ("MFL") under the Licensed Patents with regard to Covered
     Subscriber Units. If, subsequent to the Effective Date, ITC enters into an
     agreement with a third party comparable to the license granted in this
     Agreement but containing commercial terms which, in the aggregate (i.e.,
     not on a clause by clause basis), are more favorable to the third party
     than the commercial terms in this Agreement, ITC will notify Licensee of
     such agreement. Licensee shall have the right to substitute for this
     Agreement the more favorable license agreement in its entirety (the
     "Substitute Agreement") and such substitution shall constitute a novation
     of this entire Agreement. MFL rights shall not extend to (i) TDMA License
     Agreements executed as part of broad-based strategic alliance partnerships,
     (ii) to any agreements executed prior to the Effective Date, or (iii) other
     Agreements amended subsequent to the Effective Date pursuant to executory
     amendment provisions entered into prior to the Effective Date. If Licensee
     elects a Substitute Agreement, Licensee shall, as a condition precedent to
     the effectiveness of the Substitute Agreement, pay all royalties owed (or
     credit prepayments) based on this Agreement for Covered Subscriber Unit
     sales made prior to the date Licensee executes the Substitute Agreement. To
     the extent that Licensee continues to have pre-payments available, the
     remaining pre-payment shall apply under the Substitute Agreement.

8.4  No Other Royalty Adjustment. The royalties set forth herein are based on a
     variety of factors, among them the breadth of ITC's patent portfolio, the
     avoidance of litigation costs related to challenges to the validity and
     scope of such patents, and the reasonable expectations of TDMA market
     growth.

                                       8

<PAGE>

     Because (i) the parties have considered a variety of factors in developing
     the royalty rates, and (ii) those rates are already the subject of multiple
     discounts, credits and readjustment as provided herein, the parties
     irrevocably agree that neither will seek to alter, through negotiation,
     arbitration, litigation or otherwise, the royalty rates except as provided
     herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if there are drastic economic
     changes in the market for Covered Subscriber Units such that the royalty
     payments required hereunder present a substantial impediment for Licensee
     to successfully compete for sales, Licensee may request that ITC modify the
     royalty rates hereunder on a reasonable basis.

8.5  Confidentiality. Unless otherwise required by law or court order, the
     parties shall maintain as confidential the License Agreement and any
     proprietary information disclosed under, or as a result of the negotiation
     of, the License Agreement.

8.6  Audit. Licensee shall keep books and records adequate to accurately
     determine the payments due under this Agreement. The books and records must
     be retained for at least five (5) years after the delivery of the royalty
     report to which they relate. ITC shall have the right, no more than once
     per calendar year, to have an independent certified public accountant, who
     shall enter into an appropriate nondisclosure agreement with Licensee,
     inspect all relevant books and records of Licensee on seven (7) business
     days notice and during regular business hours to verify the reports and
     payments required to be made hereunder. The auditor shall disclose no more
     information than is reasonably necessary to determine the royalties owed
     hereunder and to assess the average Net Selling Price. Should an
     underpayment in excess of [**] percent ([**]%) be discovered, Licensee
     shall pay the cost of the audit. In any event, Licensee shall promptly pay
     any underpayment together with interest at the compounded annual rate of
     [**] percent ([**]%). All information obtained through such audit shall be
     held in confidence by Licensee.

8.7  Governing Law/Venue. The validity and interpretation of this Agreement
     shall be governed by Delaware law, without regard to conflict of laws
     principles. The parties further irrevocably consent to exclusive
     jurisdiction of the state and federal courts in the State of Delaware.
     Process shall be deemed sufficient if served on either party by courier
     service or recognized mail delivery service (e.g. U.S. Mail), postage
     prepaid, certified or registered, return receipt requested, and addressed
     as indicated on page 1 of this Agreement. The parties hereby waive any
     objection as to the sufficiency of the method of service provided such
     service is made as set forth herein.

8.8  Limited Warranty. ITC represents and warrants that it has the right to
     license the Licensed Patents. ITC makes no other representation or warranty
     with regard to

                                        9

<PAGE>

      the validity of the Licensed Patents or the Licensee's ability to use,
      manufacture, have manufactured or sell Covered Subscriber Units free of
      infringement of third party intellectual property rights. ITC shall have
      no obligation to maintain or prosecute Licensed Patents.

8.9   Waivers. The failure of any party to insist upon the performance of any of
      the terms or conditions of this Agreement or to exercise any right
      hereunder, shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishments of the
      future performance of any such term or condition.

8.10  Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be severable, and if
      any of them are held invalid or unenforceable, then that provision shall
      be construed to the maximum extent permitted by law. The invalidity or
      unenforceability of one provision shall not necessarily affect any other.

8.11  No Set Off. Licensee agrees and acknowledges that it has no right to, and
      shall not, attempt to set off amounts claimed to be owed based on any
      claim that it has or may have in the future against IDC or its Affiliates
      other than ITC, against amounts owed hereunder.

8.12  Notices. All notices or other communications required or permitted under
      this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be delivered by personal
      delivery, registered mail, return receipt requested, or a qualified "Next
      Day Air" delivery service addressed as indicated on page 2of this
      Agreement.

8.13  Limitation. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as: (a) an
      agreement to bring or prosecute actions against third party infringers of
      the Licensed Patents; (b) conferring any license or right under any patent
      other than the Licensed Patents; or (c) conferring any right to use the
      Licensed Patents outside the field of use defined by the license grant of
      this Agreement.

8.14  Personal Agreement. This Agreement is personal to Licensee and may not be
      assigned or transferred, nor may any license granted hereunder be assigned
      or transferred, whether by operation of law or otherwise, and any attempt
      to make any such assignment or transfer shall be null and void; provided,
      however, this Agreement may be transferred in connection with the sale of
      all or substantially all of the business or assets of Licensee to which
      this Agreement relates. ITC, may in its sole discretion, limit application
      of this license to the permitted transferee to the transferred business.
      The licenses granted hereunder to Licensee shall survive any transfer by
      operation of law or otherwise of the Licensed Patents or this Agreement by
      ITC. Licensee hereby guarantees the

                                       10

<PAGE>

      performance of, and shall be liable to ITC for any failure to perform by,
      LicenseeAffiliates hereunder.

8.15  Entire Agreement/Amendment. This Agreement contains the complete and final
      agreement between the parties, and supersedes all previous understandings
      relating to the subject matter hereof whether oral or written. This
      Agreement may only be modified by a written agreement signed by duly
      authorized representatives of the parties.

8.16  Survival. The following provisions of this Agreement shall survive
      expiration or termination of this Agreement: Section 2.1 (only as to the
      release provision), 4.1, 7.1, 7.2, 7.3, 8.1, 8.2, 8.5, 8.7, and 8.13

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have executed this Agreement by their duly
authorized representatives.
