`Subject: Schedule for CBM2015-00161, -0035, -00172, -00040, -00179, -00181, and -00182
`
`Your Honors:
`
`Patent Owner would like to schedule a call with the Board to request a one-month extension of the
`consolidated schedules (including potentially the October 19, 2016 hearing date) in CBM2015-
`00161, -0035, -00172, -00040, -00179, -00181, and -00182, which currently have Patent Owner
`Responses due on June 27, 2016. Petitioner opposes Patent Owner's requesting an extension. Both
`parties are available for a conference call after 10:30 am EST this Wednesday, June 23.
`
`Patent Owner's in-house counsel Steve Borsand, who has been deeply involved in these proceedings
`as backup counsel, recently fell very ill. He been unable to provide significant input on the Patent
`Owner Responses due to severe pain, dizziness, fatigue, fainting, inability to focus, immobility, and
`complications from his prescribed medication.
`
`Given Mr. Borsand's deep involvement in the proceedings and his current poor health, Patent Owner
`believes there is good cause for an extension. 37 C.F.R. 42.5(c)(2). In fact, the Federal Circuit recently
`granted an extension for Patent Owner's reply brief in Trading Technologies v. CQG, No. 16-1616,
`because of Mr. Borsand's health. Patent Owner proposes to follow up with the Board and with
`Petitioner regarding Mr. Borsand's progress within two weeks of the granting of any extension.
`
`Regards,
`Erika Arner
`Lead Counsel for Patent Owner Trading Technologies
