JUDGMENT ON JURY VERDICT

JOHN O'MEARA, District Judge

AND NOW, this 3^rd day of November, 2004, following the jury's verdict and the Court's Opinion and Order of November 1, 2004 denying defendants' motions for new trial and for judgment as a matter of law, judgment is hereby entered on the jury verdict rendered June 7, 2004 in the above matter as follows:

Judgment is entered in favor of plaintiff Mike's Train House, Inc. ("MTH") and against defendants Lionel L.L.C. ("Lionel"), Korea Brass Co., Inc. ("Korea Brass") and Yoo Chan Yang ("Yang"), jointly and severally, in the amount of $25,773,485.00, which amount represents MTH's lost past and lost future profits resulting from defendants' misappropriation of MTH's trade secrets.

Judgment is entered in favor of plaintiff MTH and against defendant Lionel in an additional amount of $12,834,820.00, which amount represents Lionel's unjust enrichment from its misappropriation of MTH's trade secrets. Thus, the total judgment entered in favor of plaintiff MTH and against defendant Lionel is $38,608,305.00.

Judgment is entered in favor of plaintiff MTH and against defendants Korea Brass and Yang in an additional amount of $2,167,440.00, which amount represents Korea Brass's and Yang's unjust enrichment from their misappropriation of MTH's trade secrets. Thus, the total judgment entered in favor of plaintiff MTH and against defendants Korea Brass and Yang is $27,940,925.00.

MTH shall not be permitted to collect from any defendant more than the total amount of the judgment entered against that defendant — $38,608,305.00 against Lionel and $27,940,925.00 against defendants Korea Brass and Yang. Furthermore, MTH shall not be permitted to collect more than an aggregate amount of $40,775,745.00 from all of defendants combined.

Interest shall accrue on the above judgment amounts at the legal rate from the date of entry of this judgment.
