SAME
ORDER NO. 17:
Inv. N0. 337-TA-920
GRANTING-IN-PART CORRECTED JOINT MOTION TO
TERMINATE INVESTIGATION
(October 15, 2014)
On September 29, 2014, Complainant Freescale Semiconductor, Inc. (“Freescale”) and
Respondents MediaTek Inc. and MediaTek USA Inc. (collectively “MediaTek”) filed a joint
motion to terminate this Investigation with prejudice based on a settlement agreement. (Motion
Docket No. 920-O22.) On October 3, 2014, the Moving Parties filed a motion for leave to file a
corrected joint motion to terminate this Investigation based on a settlement agreement. (Motion
Docket No. 920-023.) The Moving Parties submitted confidential and public version of the
corrected joint motions to terminate this Investigation with prejudice as attachments to their
motion for leave. The Moving Parties’ motion for leave is hereby GRANTED. The Moving
Parties’ corrected motion to terminate is addressed below and need not be refiled. Motion
Docket No. 920-O22 is hereby DENIED as moot.
In their corrected motion to terminate, the Moving Parties state that an agreement
between Freescalc and MediaTek resolves the dispute as to MediaTek and all non-MediaTek
Respondents. The Moving Parties thus request this Investigation be terminated in its entirety.
The Moving Parties aver that the non-MediaTek Respondents do not oppose the motion] On
1The non-MediaTek Respondents are; Acer Inc.; AmTRAN Technology Co. Ltd.; AmTRAN Logistics, Inc.;
ASUSTek Computer Inc.; ASUS Computer International; BLU Products, Inc.; Sharp Corporation; Sharp Electronics
PUBLIC VERSION
October 7, 2014, Commission Investigative Staff (“Staff”) filed a response to the Moving
Parties’ corrected motion to terminate stating it does not oppose terminating the agreement
without prejudice.
The Moving Parties request that the service of the confidential exhibits be limited to the
settling parties. The Moving Parties state that good cause exists for limiting the service because
the specific tenns of the settlement agreement are highly sensitive business infonnation with
respect to the non-MediaTek Respondents because they have business units that compete directly
with MediaTek. (Mem. at 2.) Staff avers that the Moving Parties have demonstrated good cause
for restricted service because of the highly sensitive nature of the redacted information and
because the non-MediaTek Respondents have business units that compete with MediaTek.
Having shown good cause, the request is GRANTED pursuant to 19 C.F.R. § 21O.21(b).
The Commission’s Rules provide that “[a]ny party may move at any time to terminate an
investigation in whole or in part as to any or all respondents on the basis of a settlement, a
licensing or other agreement, including an agreement to present the_matter for arbitration, or a
consent order, as provided in paragraphs (b), (c) and (d) of this section.” 19 C.F.R. §
2l0.21(a)(2). In the instant Investigation, the motion to tenninate is based on a Settlement
Agreement between Freescale Semiconductor, Ltd. (“the Freescale Party”) and MediaTek Inc.
(“the MediaTek Party”).
Confidential and public copies of the settlement agreement were provided, as required by
19 C.F.R. § 210.21(b)(1). The public settlement agreement is attached hereto as Exhibit A. The
Corporation; Sharp Electronics Manufacturing Company of America, Inc.; Sony Corporation; Sony Corporation of
America; Sony Electronics Inc.; Sony EMCS (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd; Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc.;
Toshiba Logistics America, Inc.; TPV Display Technology (Xiamen) Co., Ltd.; Trend Smart America, Ltd.; Trend
Smart Ce Mexico, S.r.l. de C.V.; VIZIO, Inc.; Best Buy Co., Inc.; Walmart Stores, Inc.; Amazoncom, Inc.; Lenovo
Group Ltd.; Lenovo (United States) Inc.; Yamaha Corporation (Japan); Yamaha Corporation of America; Newegg
Inc.; B & H Foto & Electronics Corp.; Costco VVholesaleCorporation; and Buy.com Inc. (d/b/a Rakuten.com
Shopping).

Moving Parties have also included a statement that “there are no other agreements, written or
oral, express or implied, between Freescale and MediaTek or between Freescale and any other
Respondent concerning the subject matter of this investigation” as required by Commission Rule
21O.2l(b). (Mem. at 2.)
l9 C.F.R. § 2lO.5O(b)(2)provides that in the case of a proposed termination by
settlement agreement, the parties may file statements regarding the impact of the proposed
termination on the public interest, and the administrative law judge may hear argument, although
no discovery may be compelled, with respect to issues relating solely to the public interest. In I
any initial determination terminating an investigation by settlement agreement or consent order,
the administrative law judge is directed to consider and make appropriate findings regarding the
effect of the proposed settlement on the public health and welfare, competitive conditions in the
United States economy, the production of like or directly competitive articles in the United
States, and United States consumers. 19 C.F.R. § 210.50(b)(2).
The Moving Parties state that “the termination of this investigation will not adversely
affect the public interest because it will not affect the public health and welfare, competitive
conditions in the U.S. economy, the production of like or directly competitive articles in the
United States, or U.S. consumers.” (Mem. at 2.) The Moving Parties further state that “it is in
the interest of the public and administrative economy to grant this Motion.” (Ia'.) Staff says that
it is unaware of any infonnation that indicates that partial termination would hann the public
interest and adds that the public interest favors settlement to avoid needless litigation and to
conserve public resources. Based on the foregoing, I find that tennination of this Investigation
does not impose any undue burdens on the public health and welfare, competitive conditions in

the United States economy, the production of like or directly competitive articles in the United
States, and United States consumers.
The Moving Parties’ request to terminate this Investigation with prejudice is contrary to
Commission precedent. See, e.g., Certain Bar Clamps, Bar Clamp Pads and Related Packaging,
Displays and Other Materials, Inv. No. 337-TA-429, Comm’n Op., 2001 WL 361 14993, at *2
(Feb. 13, 2001) (“We do not dismiss the complaint in this investigation ‘with prejudice’ because
we believe that such a condition for termination of an investigation is not permitted under section
337(b)(1) of the Tarrif Act of 1930.”) Thus, the Moving Parties’ motion, to the extent it requests
termination with prejudice, is DENIED.
Qlilfl
Accordingly, it is my Initial Determination that the corrected motion to terminate this
Investigation is GRANTED-IN-PART. This Initial Determination, along with supporting
documentation, is hereby certified to the Commission.
Pursuant to 19 C.F.R. § 2l0.42(h), this Initial Determination shall become the
determination of the Commission unless a party files a petition for review of the Initial
Determination pursuant to 19 C.F.R. § 210.43(a), or the Commission, pursuant to 19 C.F.R.
§ 210.44, orders, on its own motion, a review of the Initial Determination or certain issues
herein.
The Moving Parties’ request to limit service of confidential materials to the settling
parties is GRANTED. The Moving Parties’ request for termination, to the extent it requests
termination with prejudice, is DENIED.
SO ORDERED.
