(Nasdaq:PRKR), a developer, manufacturer and marketer of semiconductor technology solutions for wireless applications, announced today that Brickell Key Investments LP (“Brickell”), a special purpose fund under the management of Juridica Asset Management Limited, a Guernsey-based asset manager, exercised its right to provide an additional $2 million in funding under the agreement with ParkerVision announced on February 26, 2016, on the same terms and conditions as provided in the original agreement. One-half of the funds will be restricted for use in specified future patent enforcement actions with the remainder available for use by the Company for general working capital purposes.
