VirtNetX market cap Nov 2016: $185 million https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/VHC?p=VHC

Fines due to VirNetX from Apple following iMessage / VPN On Demand / FaceTime patent case: $625 million

Apple current liquidity: c . $180 billion

I see a straightforward solution. Stock buy-out, reclaim fines, shut-down. Apple would actually save money plus own all the patents.
