Eastman Kodak Co. said that it has reached a settlement with Kyocera Corp. in the companies' ongoing patent dispute, Dow Jones Daily Bankruptcy Review reported today. In a court filing yesterday, Kodak said that Kyocera will drop its $80 million claim against Kodak, which will receive a payment from Kyocera for about $5 million. The two sides will drop pending patent litigation against one another, and they have agreed not to pursue any further patent fights against the other until at least three years after Kodak has exited chapter 11.
