` This Order addresses an issue that is identical in both cases. We, therefore,
`exercise our discretion to issue one Order to be filed in each case. The parties are
`not authorized to use this style heading for any subsequent papers.

`IPR2016-01121 (Patent 5,960,464)
`IPR2016-01135 (Patent 5,812,789)
`
`
`On August 25, 2017, we issued an Order to Show Cause (IPR2016-01121,
`
`Paper 34; IPR2016-01135, Paper 32) with a deadline of one week—i.e., September
`
`1, 2017. On August 29, 2017, counsel for Apple Inc. contacted the Board to seek
`
`an extension of that deadline to September 8, 2017, in light of the extreme weather
`
`affecting Houston, Texas, where counsel for Patent Owner is located. Based on
`
`these particular circumstances, the panel agrees that an extension of time is
`
`warranted.
`
`Accordingly, it is:
`
`ORDERED that the deadline for filing the papers authorized in our Order to
`
`Show Cause (IPR2016-01121, Paper 34; IPR2016-01135, Paper 32) is reset to
`
`September 8, 2017.
