`
`REQUEST FOR CERTIFICATE OF CORRECTION
`
`Dear Commissioner:
`
`The patentee requests entry of the enclosed proposed certificate of correction in the above
`identified patent, to correct errors which are the Applicant’s mistake.
`
`The fee of $100.00 set forth in S 1.20(a) is being paid herewith.
`
`The mistakes corrected are typographical in nature and minor. In particular, a Word is clearly
`missing, i.e., “device”, in the phrase “operation of the media device” in the preamble of claim 9.
`
`The correction does not involve such changes in the patent as would constitute new matter or
`Would require reexamination.
`
`Dated: July 5, 2014

`Respectfully submitted,
