i2 Tech to get $83.3 million SAP settlement

i2 Technologies Inc. said it will receive a cash payment of $83.3 million under terms of a patent litigation settlement with German business software maker SAP AG.

I2 makes software that helps companies coordinate deliveries from suppliers with their production schedule, and manage inventory.

The companies have agree to cross license certain patents, and dismiss all existing legal action with prejudice.

Further terms weren't disclosed.

I2 expects to receive the cash payment in the third quarter. The company also said that since the settlement will boost financial performance, second-quarter results are no longer expected to be flat with the first quarter.

Shares rose 37 cents, or nearly 3 percent, to $13.09 in afternoon trading on an overall down day for the markets.
