`
`Petitioner Mylan Institutional Inc. (“Mylan”) requests a refund in the amount
`
`of $ 16,400 to be paid to Deposit Acct. No. 160605 (Customer ID No. 00826)

`
`Patent Fees, 78 F.R. 4211, 4234-35 (Jan. 18, 2013).
`
`On January 19, 2017, Mylan filed a Petition for inter partes review against
`
`U.S. Patent No. 9,006,289, proceeding IPR2017-00645. In accordance with the fee
`
`schedule specified in 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a), Mylan deposited an electronic payment

`
`into a settlement agreement that resolved all underlying disputes between the parties,
`
`including the inter partes review proceeding IPR2017-00645, against U.S. Patent
`
`No. 9,006,289. Accordingly, on April 13, 2017, the parties jointly moved to
`
`terminate this proceeding pursuant to 35 U.S.C. § 317 and 37 C.F.R. § 42.74.
