`
`No. 7,542,045 (Paper No. 4). On August 3, 2016, a settlement was reached
`
`between the two parties. On August 19, 2016, Petitioners and Patent Owners filed
`
`a Joint Motion to Terminate (Paper No. 11). The Board subsequently issued an
`
`order terminating this proceeding (Paper No. 14, dated August 25, 2016). In
`
`accordance with 37 C.F.R. §42.15(a)(2), the fees paid at the time of filing should
`
`be returned. Petitioner hereby requests a refund of $14,000 for the fees in the case
`
`of IPR2016-00667.
`
`The payment was provided via credit card and processed in PRPS on
`
`February 26, 2016. Upon review and approval of this request, we respectfully
`
`request the Board credit the requested amount to Petitioners. The amount may be
`
`(1) credited to the American Express account from which payment was provided
`
`(card number ending 5009); or (2) deposited into PTO Account No. 06-0916. If
`
`more information is necessary to provide payment, please contact Lionel Lavenue.
