`REQUEST FOR REFUND OF THE POST INSTITUTION FEE
`
`
`
`On May 9, 2016, Ford Motor Company ("Petitioner") filed a Petition for
`
`Inter Partes Review seeking review of claims 60-72 of U.S. Patent No. 5,825,651.
`
`Patent Owner, Paice LLC & Abell Foundation, Inc. ("PAICE, LLC et al."),
`
`submitted its Preliminary Response on August 12, 2016 (Paper No. 10). On
`
`

`
`Atty. Dkt. No.: FPGP0126IPR1
`
`Case No.: IPR2016-01014
`Patent No.: 5,825,651
`
`
`
`September 27, 2016, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board issued its Judgment
`
`denying Petitioner's petition. Paper No. 11 at p. 8 ("It is ORDERED that the
`
`Petition is denied as to all challenged claims, and no trial is instituted").
`
`The Rules provide for a refund of the institution fee if the Board does not
`
`institute trial. Payment of the $14,000 post-institution fee was processed through
`
`PRPS on May 9, 2016, and charged to Deposit Account 06-1510. Petitioner
`
`hereby requests a refund of $14,000 for the post-institution fee under 37 C.F.R.
`
`§ 42.15(a)(2).
`
`Upon review and approval of this request, Petitioner respectfully requests
`
`that the Board credit the post-institution fee to Deposit Account 06-1510.

`Respectfully submitted,
