STAPLETON, District Judge:
In these consolidated actions, RCA charges Hazeltine, Lear Siegler and ADDS1 (collectively “HLA”) with willful and deliberate infringement of the Cole, et al U.S. Patent No. 3,345,458 (“the Cole patent”). There is no dispute that RCA owns the Cole patent, including the right to recover for past infringement, and there is no dispute as to subject matter jurisdiction, personal jurisdiction or venue. This opinion constitutes the Court’s findings of fact and conclusions of law following trial of the issues of validity, unenforceability and infringement.
