`DECISION
`Motions to Seal
`37 C.F.R. §§ 42.14 and 42.54
`
`
`
`
`
`
`1 IPR2016-01505 has been joined with IPR2016-00597.

`
`IPR2016-00597
`Patent 7,543,634 B2
`
`The parties have filed unopposed motions to seal various exhibits.
`Papers 24, 34, 49, 62 (“Motions to Seal”). With the Motions to Seal, a
`proposed protective order has been filed as Papers 25 and 50.2 The Motions
`to Seal persuade us that the information the parties seek to seal constitutes
`confidential information and that good cause exists for sealing the
`information that the parties request to be sealed. See 37 C.F.R. § 42.54.
`Additionally, we determine that the parties’ proposed protective order is
`acceptable.
`It is therefore
`
`ORDERED that the parties’ Motions to Seal are granted; and
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that the proposed protective order filed as
`
`Papers 25 and 50 is entered in this proceeding.
`
`
`
`
`2 Papers 25 and 50 appear to contain identical provisions. Paper 50 appears
`to differ from Paper 25 only on the caption page; Paper 50’s caption page
`lists the case number as IPR2016-01505, whereas Paper 25’s caption page
`lists the case number as IPR2016-00597.
