<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">Item&nbsp;6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under Section&nbsp;145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company has
broad powers to indemnify its directors and officers against liabilities they
may incur in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the &#147;Securities Act&#148;). The Company&#146;s Bylaws require the
Company to indemnify its directors and executive officers and may indemnify its
other officers to the full extent permitted by law. The Company believes that
indemnification under its Bylaws covers at least negligence and gross
negligence by officers and directors, and requires the Company to advance
litigation expenses in the case of stockholder derivative actions or other
actions, against an undertaking by the officer or director to repay such
advances if it is ultimately determined that the officer or director is not
entitled to indemnification. The Bylaws further provide that rights conferred
under such Bylaws shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other right such
persons may have or acquire under any statute, provision of any Certificate of
Incorporation, Bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders, disinterested directors
or otherwise.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In addition, the Company&#146;s Certificate of Incorporation provides that,
pursuant to Delaware law, its directors shall not be liable for monetary
damages for breach of the directors&#146; fiduciary duty of care to the Company and
its stockholders. This provision in the Certificate of Incorporation does not
eliminate the duty of care, and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies
such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available
under Delaware law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to
liability for breach of the director&#146;s duty of loyalty to the Company, or acts
or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing
violations of law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the
director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or
redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not
affect a director&#146;s responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal
securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;The Company currently has a policy providing directors and officers
liability insurance with insured directors and officers of the Company in
certain circumstances. The policy also insures the Company against losses as
to which its directors and officers are entitles to indemnification.

post-effective amendment to this registration statement:


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(i)&nbsp;To include any prospectus required by Section&nbsp;10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;

effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement;
and


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(iii)&nbsp;To include any material information with respect to the plan of

<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (l)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to
Section&nbsp;13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in the registration statement.



<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)&nbsp;That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 10pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)&nbsp;To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any

determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the

Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan&#146;s
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a

registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the

With the exception of the 32,000,000 newly authorized shares to be registered
on this Form S-8 Registration Statement, the remaining 2,436,222 securities
being registered under the QUALCOMM Incorporated 2001 Stock Option Plan are
shares which were previously available for grant under the QUALCOMM
Incorporated 1991 Stock Option Plan. The registrant previously registered such
shares for issuance pursuant to the 1991 Stock Option Plan on Form S-8
registration statements (33-45083; 33-78150; 33-78158; 333-2752; 333-2754;
333-2756; 333-32013; 333-69457; 333-95291). The registrant has filed a
post-effective amendment to deregister such shares from the Form S-8
registration statements filed with respect to the 1991 Stock Option Plan, and
accordingly, the associated registration fee previously paid on these shares
under the prior registration statements is hereby also carried forward to cover
a portion of the registration fee under this Registration Statement with
respect to the specific number of securities listed above. The securities
being registered under the QUALCOMM Incorporated 2001 Non-Employee Directors'
Stock Option Plan are shares which were previously available for grant under
the QUALCOMM Incorporated 1998 Non-Employee Directors' Stock Option

PART II
INFORMATION REQUIRED IN THE REGISTRATION STATEMENT
Item 3. Incorporation of Documents by Reference
QUALCOMM Incorporated (the "Company") hereby incorporates by reference in
this registration statement the following documents:
(a) The Company's latest annual report on Form 10-K filed pursuant to
Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
"Exchange Act"), containing audited financial statements for the Company's
latest fiscal year ended September 28, 2003 as filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission on November 5, 2003.
(b) All other reports filed pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the
Exchange Act since the end of the fiscal year covered by the registrant
document referred to in (a) above.
(c) The description of the Company's Common Stock contained in the
Company's registration statement filed under the Exchange Act, including any
amendment or report filed for the purpose of updating such description.
All documents subsequently filed by the Company pursuant to Sections
13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Exchange Act, prior to the filing of a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement which indicates that
all securities offered hereby have been sold or which deregisters all

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Under Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Company has
broad powers to indemnify its directors and officers against liabilities they
may incur in such capacities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). The Company's Bylaws require the
Company to indemnify its directors and executive officers and may indemnify its
other officers to the full extent permitted by law. The Company believes that
indemnification under its Bylaws covers at least negligence and gross
negligence by officers and directors, and requires the Company to advance
litigation expenses in the case of stockholder derivative actions or other
actions, against an undertaking by the officer or director to repay such
advances if it is ultimately determined that the officer or director is not
entitled to indemnification. The Bylaws further provide that rights conferred
under such Bylaws shall not be deemed to be exclusive of any other right such
persons may have or acquire under any statute, provision of any Certificate of
Incorporation, Bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders, disinterested directors
or otherwise.
In addition, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation provides that,
pursuant to Delaware law, its directors shall not be liable for monetary
damages for breach of the directors' fiduciary duty of care to the Company and
its stockholders. This provision in the Certificate of Incorporation does not
eliminate the duty of care, and in appropriate circumstances equitable remedies
such as injunctive or other forms of non-monetary relief will remain available
under Delaware law. In addition, each director will continue to be subject to
liability for breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company, or acts
or omissions not in good faith or involving intentional misconduct, for knowing
violations of law, for actions leading to improper personal benefit to the
director, and for payment of dividends or approval of stock repurchases or
redemptions that are unlawful under Delaware law. The provision also does not
affect a director's responsibilities under any other law, such as the federal
securities laws or state or federal environmental laws.
The Company currently has a policy providing directors and officers
liability insurance with insured directors and officers of the Company in
certain circumstances. The policy also insures the Company against losses as
to which its directors and officers are entitles to indemnification.
Item 7. Exemption From Registration Claimed
Inapplicable.
Item 8. Exhibits
See Exhibit Index.
Item 9. Undertakings
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
5
Table of Contents
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a
post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the
effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective
amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a
fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement;
and
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of
distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any
material change to such information in the registration statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (l)(ii) do not apply if the
information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those
paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by
reference in the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new
registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any
of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of
the offering.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the
registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's
annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant
has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling
precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the

question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.
