`
`In an e-mail dated November 17, 2021, we authorized HP Inc.
`
`(“Petitioner”) and Synkloud Technologies, LLC (“Patent Owner”) to file a
`
`motion to terminate the instant proceedings. On November 22, 2021, and
`
`pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 317 and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74, Petitioner and Patent
`
`Owner filed a joint motion to terminate these proceedings and a joint request
`
`to have their settlement agreement (Exhibit 2043) treated as confidential
`
`business information under 35 U.S.C. § 317 and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74.
`
`Papers 23, 24. In the joint motion, the parties represent that the settlement
`
`agreement is with “regard to the patent[] at issue in these proceedings” and
`
`is a true and correct copy. Paper 23, 2–3.3
`
`At this juncture of the proceedings, the Board has not entered a final
`
`decision. Based on the facts presented in these cases, we determine that it is
`
`appropriate to terminate these proceedings.
`
`Accordingly, it is:
`
`ORDERED that the joint request that the settlement agreement
`
`(Exhibit 2043) be treated as business confidential information to be kept
`
`separate from the patent files is granted;
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that the joint motion to terminate these
`
`proceedings is granted; and
`
`FURTHER ORDERED that these proceedings are terminated.
`
`
`3 The pages of the motion are not numbered. We refer to the numbers
`of the pages beginning with the title page as number 1.
