(1) Upon motion by a target and a finding by the court that a target has established a reasonable likelihood that a sponsor has made a bad faith assertion of patent infringement in a demand letter in violation of this part, the court shall require the sponsor to post a bond in an amount equal to a good faith estimate of the target's costs to litigate the claim under this part and amounts reasonably likely to be recovered under Subsections 78B-6-1904(1)(b)(ii) and (iii), conditioned upon payment of any amounts finally determined to be due to the target. (2) A hearing on the appropriateness and amount of a bond under this section shall be held if either party requests it. (3) A bond ordered pursuant to this section may not exceed $250,000. The court may waive the bond requirement if it finds the sponsor has available assets equal to the amount of the proposed bond or for other good cause shown.
