Claim 15:
16. The bipolar plate assembly of claim 1, wherein:
the portion of the anode plate and the portion of the cathode plate disposed between the first frame member and the second frame member are at a cathode header of the bipolar plate assembly;
a portion of the proton exchange membrane is disposed between the first frame member and the second frame member at the cathode header of the bipolar plate assembly;
the first side protuberance of the first frame member contacts and deforms the portion of the proton exchange membrane, which contacts and deforms the portion of the anode plate, which contacts and deforms the portion of the cathode plate into the second side recess of the second frame member, thereby forming the seal therebetween; and
the first frame member including a cathode channel fluidly coupling the cathode header and a cathode flow field positioned between the cathode plate and the cathode catalyst layer.
