`U.S. Patent 8,309,375
`
`Pursuant to the Patent and Trademark Office’s Final Rule Setting and
`
`Adjusting Patent Fees, 78 Fed. Reg. 4212, 4232-4234 (Jan. 18, 2013) TCL
`
`Multimedia Technology Holdings, Ltd. and TTE Technology, Inc. (collectively,
`
`“Petitioners”) respectfully requests a refund of post-institution fees in the amount
`
`of $14,000 to be paid to deposit account number 50-5708.
`
`On August 25, 2017, Petitioners filed their Petition for Inter Partes Review
`
`of U.S. Patent No. 8,309,375 (the “’375 patent”). (Paper 2.) On March 20, 2018,
`
`the Board entered a Termination Decision of Inter Partes Patent Review before
`
`any decision on institution was made. Petitioners deposited an electronic payment
`
`of $14,000 in post-institution fees pursuant to 37 CFR 42.15(a)(2) and 42.15(a)(4)
`
`for requesting review of 2 claims of the ’375 patent.
`
`Because the instant proceeding was not instituted, Petitioners hereby
`
`requests a refund of $14,000 for the post-institution fees that it paid to the USPTO
`
`in connection with this matter. See 78 FR 4233, 4234-35 (Jan 18, 2013).
