With regards to Sisvel’s VP9 licensing program, some of the participating patent owners had entered into an agreement covering the VP8 Video Format and further provided for sublicensing those VP8 techniques in one next-generation VPx video codec (namely the Google-MPEG LA agreement – “Google and MPEG LA Announce Agreement Covering VP8 Video Format” – https://www.mpegla.com/wp-content/uploads/n-13-03-07.pdf [mpegla.com]).

In the creation of Sisvel’s VP9 licensing program, Sisvel and the patent owners have taken the extreme care and due diligence they were able to perform in the patent review and have believe the program offers licenses only to the VP9 specification patents which have not already been licensed under the aforementioned agreement.

The table in the documents below allows interested parties to understand how the VP9 and the AV1 patents licensed by Sisvel are utilized by products complying with those specifications and, to this end, indicates relevant specifications and sections of the specifications.

NB. Patents held by Xylene S.A. are patents previously held by Mitsubishi Electric Corp.
