`~nsent of the assignee is missing. 37 CFR 1.172 requires that the reissue oath/declaration be accompanied by
`the written COJ;lsent of s!! assignees. Until this item is supplied, the oath/declaration remains defective; thus, payment of the

`the supplying ofthis item. See MPEP § 1410.01.

`authorized to act on behalf of the assignee(s) must be provided, to comply with 37 CFR 1.172. Until this item is supplied, the
`oath/declaration remains defective; thus, payment of the surcharge ($130 for large entity; $65 for small entity) under 37 CFR
