Dave,
That is what they do per the guy I spoke with at Paulson.
They will buy a qty and split it between the two legal entities.
I looked at two other securities they own C and BZ and they are reported the same way.
If this reporting is in error for IDCC it will get corrected.
Then OD will be correct which by the way I don't believe I have ever said he was wrong on this subject. Just not sure he is an expert on 13F's. I know I am not so I contacted Paulson.
