A perspective on York Eggleston/Catapult and Blackberry
A York Eggleston controlled entity, Slingshot, is involved in a legal action with Acacia regarding a patent sale by Acacia (where the sale to Eggleston fell through and Acacia went with a differnt buyer). The parallels between the Acacia/Slingshot and Blackberry/Catapult deals are eerily similar (read about Acacia/Slingshot - https://www.reedsmith.com/en/perspectives/2021/05/delaware-court-of-chancery-finds-implied-covenant-inferred-from). Fear of potential legal action with York Eggleston, as described in the Reed-Smith link, may be playing a role in the length of time for BB to conclude its IP disposition. I believe Catapult's exclusivity ended in May 2022 and there was probably a normal 1-year period covering introductions to BB from Eggleston.
