Sure, here we go:


Code:
awk '/STMC/{m=$1} m && /^There/ && int($3)>0 {print m, $3}' file


Code:
/STMC/{m=$1}

Store the value of the 1st field (STMCxxx) in the variable m if the line begins with STMC.


Code:
m && /^There/ && int($3)>0 {print m, $3}

If m is set and the line begins with There and the 3th field is an integer, print the variable m and the value of the 3th field.

Regards
