`PETITIONER’S REQUEST FOR REFUND OF POST-INSTITUTION FEES
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`Ubisoft, Inc.. (“Petitioner”) filed a petition for Inter Partes Review of 45
`
`claims of U.S. Patent No. 6,324,578 on July 21, 2017 (Paper No. 3). At the time of
`
`filing, Petitioner submitted a fee of $39,400.00 consisting of a $9,000.00 request fee,
`
`a $4,800 claim fee in excess of 20 claims, a $14,000.00 inter partes review post-
`
`institution fee, and a $11,600 post-institution claim fee in excess of 15 in accordance
`
`with 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(b). On February 1, 2018, the Board denied institution of the
`
`inter partes review (Paper No. 10). In view of the Board’s decision, Petitioner
`
`respectfully requests a refund of the inter partes review post-institution fees of
`
`$25,600 that was submitted with their initial petition pursuant to 37 C.F.R. §
`
`42.15(b). Petitioner requests that the refund be deposited in Deposit Account No.
`
`50-6159.
