`
`Pursuant to the Patent and Trademark Office's Final Rule Setting
`
`and Adjusting Patent Fees, 78 F.R. 4211,4233-4234 (Jan. 18, 2013),
`
`Petitioner TRW Automotive US LLC ("TRW") requests a refund in the
`
`amount of $7,600 to be paid to deposit account number 120600.
`
`On December 19, 2014, TRW filed a Petition for Inter Partes
`
`Review with the PTO that was assigned case number IPR2015-00439. In
`
`accordance with the fee schedule specified in 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a), TRW
`
`deposited an electronic payment in the amount of $24,200 with the PTO at
`
`the time of filing of its Petition to cover associated fees. TRW's payment
`
`consisted of $9,000 in fees associated with TRW's Petition for Inter
`
`Partes Review request, and a further $15,200 in Post-Institution fees.
`
`On July 10, 2015, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board entered a
`
`Decision for IPR2015-00439 denying institution of claims 101 and 109.
`
`Accordingly TRW requests a refund in the amount of $800 for the post-
`
`institution fees that it has paid to the USPTO in connection with the
`
`proceeding.
