(3) in any case, the printing or other final process of producing
multiple copies and any binding of the copies have been performed in the

distributed in the United States in violation of this section by or with
the authority of the owner of such exclusive rights; and
(2) that the infringing copies were manufactured in the United States or
Canada in accordance with the provisions of subsection (c); and
