So, the single digit countdown starts tomorrow. Here is the way I see it:
If no settlement and jury awards a significant amount, 1 or more of the 13 violates a debt covenant and forces the 2 (or 3) to indemnify. In the interim, they book the liability and expense. If 1 or more of the 13 are forced into bankruptcy, more lawsuits against the 2 (or 3) and national media attention about how stealing IP is bad and caused cable service and high speed internet interruption for folks paying really large cable bills.
To the extent that treble damages are awarded, 2/3rds not deductible as a violation of public policy.
See y'all early in the AM for the beginning of the single digit countdown.

FWIW, I see settlement or ChanBond patents purchased. Too much risk.
