Minor (I think) language quibbles:

I'd replace the previous phrase with
"...specification would require the infringement of any intellectual
property rights known..."
> the TC, and

So the whole thing becomes:
"It is the intention of the TC not to approve any technical specification if
it believes that the use, distribution, or implementation of such
specification would require the infringement of any intellectual property
rights known to the TC, and such third party has not openly agreed to
license the necessary rights on perpetual, royalty-free, non-discriminatory
terms."
