`
`
`
`
`
`Petitioner RPX Corporation (“RPX”) hereby requests that a refund in the
`
`amount of $6,000.00 in post-institution excess claims fees be paid to Petitioner’s
`
`Deposit Account No. 23/2825, in accordance with the Patent and Trademark
`
`Office’s Final Rule Setting and Adjusting Patent Fees, 78 Fed. Reg. 4211, 4233-34
`
`(Jan. 18, 2013).
`
`On August 17, 2015, RPX filed a Petition for Inter Partes Review of claims
`
`1, 7-21, 27-41, and 47-59 of U.S. Patent No. 7,356,482 that was assigned case
`
`number IPR2015-01751. In accordance with the fee schedule specified in 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.15(a), RPX submitted payment in the amount of $39,400 at the time of
`
`filing its Petition, including the $9,000 Inter Partes Review request fee under 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.15(a)(1), $4,800 for requesting review of excess claims under 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.15(a)(2), the $14,000 Inter Partes Review Post-Institution fee under 37
`
`C.F.R. § 42.15(a)(3), and $11,600 in post-institution excess claims fees (29 claims
`
`at $400 per claim) under 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a)(4).
`
`On February 25, 2016, the Board entered a Decision granting institution of
`
`Inter Partes Review as to claims 1, 7, 8, 10–21, and 27–40 (Paper No. 51).
`
`Review was not instituted on 15 of the claims for which post-institution excess
`
`claims fees were prepaid (i.e., claims 9, 41, and 47-59). Accordingly, RPX
`
`requests a refund of $6,000.00 (15 claims at $400 per claim) for the post-institution
`
`excess claims fees prepaid on claims for which review was not instituted. 78 Fed.
