`
`INTRODUCTION
`
`SynKloud Technologies, LLC (“Patent Owner”) and Petitioner Adobe Inc.

`(“Petitioner,” collectively “the Parties”) have executed a Settlement Agreement

`regarding U.S. Patent Nos. 10,015,254, 9,289,780 and 9,239,686. Pursuant to 35
`
`U.S.C. § 327(b), the Parties jointly request that the Board treat the Settlement
`
`Agreement as business confidential information and keep it separate from the file
`
`of the involved patent.
`
`II. STATEMENT OF PRECISE RELIEF REQUESTED
`
`The Parties jointly request that the Board treat the Settlement Agreement
`
`(Exhibit 2042) as business confidential information and keep it separate from the
`
`file of the involved patent. The Parties further request that the Board not make the
`
`Settlement Agreement available to any third-party, except as provided for in 35
`
`U.S.C. § 327(b) and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74.
`
`III. STATEMENT OF REASONS FOR THE RELIEF REQUESTED
`
`
`
`The Parties have settled all of their disputes involving U.S. Patents Nos.
`
`10,015,254, 9,289,780 and 9,239,686 (collectively, the “Patents”). The Settlement
`
`Agreement provides that its terms are confidential and the Parties have treated
`
`them as such. The Parties have filed, concurrently herewith, a true and correct copy
`
`of the Settlement Agreement (Exhibit 2042), as required by 35 U.S.C. § 327(b) and
`
`
`
`

`
`

`

`
`
`37 C.F.R. § 42.74. The Exhibit was filed via the PRPS system to provide
`
`availability to the “Parties and Board Only.” The Parties jointly request that the
`
`Settlement Agreement be treated as business confidential information and be kept
`
`separate from the file of the involved patent, pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 327(b) and 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.74(c).
