`
`The parties filed a “Joint Motion to Terminate under 35 U.S.C.

`
`that it is appropriate to dismiss the Petition. See 3? C-F.R. §§ 42.5(a),
`
`42.71(a). After reviewing the parties” settlement agreement, we find that the

`the terms of settlement and good cause exists to treat the settlement
`
`agreement as business confidential information pursuant to 35 U.S.C.
`
`§ 31703).

`
`U.S.C. § 318(a).

`
`ORDERED that the Petition is dismissed;
