NY )	DEFAULT JUDGMENT ORDER IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that Plaintiff's Motion for Entry of Default and Default Judgment is GRANTED in its entirety, that Defaulting Defendants are deemed in default and that this Default Judgment is entered against Defaulting Defendants. Accordingly, this Court ORDERS that: Pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 284, Plaintiff has established $20,906.89 in the form of lost profits as a result of Defaulting Defendants' patent infringement. The Court finds that Defaulting Defendants' patent infringement as alleged and supported was willful, egregious and otherwise knowing and culpable warranting trebling of damages. Therefore, Defaulting Defendants shall pay Plaintiff $62,720.67 in damages. The Court finds that this case is exceptional within the meaning of 35 U.S.C. § 285, and therefore, Plaintiff is entitled to an award of reasonable attorneys' fees.
