`Subject: IPR2015-01375, request for permission to submit a Request for Certificate of Correction
`
`Dear Sir 
`
`  
`The Patent Owner seeks permission to request that the Commissioner issue a Certificate of Correction for U.S. Patent 
`No. 8,048,000.  The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) issued U.S. Patent No. 9,048,000 on June 2, 2015, which is 
`subject to IPR2015‐01375, filed June 12, 2015. 
`
`  
`The Patent Owner, Energetiq, Inc., wishes to submit a request asking the PTO to correct errors in issued claim 25, as 
`follows: 
`
`  
`…emitted by the plasma and reflecting the plasma-generated [[lt]] light toward the sapphire [[window.]]
`window, wherein the emitted light and laser [[ever y]] energy pass through the window. 
`
`  
`These errors are clearly disclosed in the records of the PTO, e.g., on page 6 of the Amendment and Response filed by the 
`Patent Owner on March 5, 2015 during prosecution of the application.   
`
`  
`However, 37 CFR 1.322(a)(3) now recites the following: 
`  
`
`1
`
`Energetiq
`Exhibit 2003, Page 1
`Case IPR2015-01375
`
`

`
`"(3) If the request relates to a patent involved in an interference or trial before the Patent Trial and Appeal Board, the 
`request must comply with the requirements of this section and be accompanied by a motion under §41.121(a)(2), 
`§41.121(a)(3), or §42.20 of this title." 
`  
`
`  
`The Patent Owner suggests that no motion need be filed with the PTAB for this purpose at this time since a trial has not 
`been granted.   
`
`  
`Please let us know if we need to seek permission from the PTAB to submit a Request for Certificate of Correction seeking 
`the above corrections.   
`
`  
`Sincerely yours, 
`  
`Jerry Worth
