`
`
`

`
`
`
`
`
`
`Petitioner Cisco Systems, Inc. hereby requests a refund of $17,400, which
`
`includes the post-institution fee that was previously paid by Petitioner. Petitioner
`
`filed a Petition for Inter Partes Review of claims 1-6, 8-12, 14-17, 19, 21, 22, and 24
`
`of U.S. Patent No. 8,934,535 on June 12, 2018, and paid the USPTO the $15,000
`
`inter partes review request fee, the $15,000 post-institution fee, and the $2,400, post-
`
`institution excess claims fee for nineteen claims in excess of fifteen as required by
`
`37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a) (2017).
`
`On October 16, 2018, the Board issued an Order Dismissing Petition. Because
`
`no institution decision was handed down and dismissal occurred during preliminary
`
`proceedings, Petitioner is entitled to a refund of $17,400.00 for the post-institution
`
`fee and the post-institution excess claims fee. See 78 FED. REG. 4212, 4234 (Jan. 18,
`
`2013) (“[I]f the review is not instituted at all, the portion of the fee covering the trial
`
`would be returned.”).
`
`Petitioner therefore requests a refund of the $17,400.00 post-institution fee.
`
`The refund may be deposited in Winston & Strawn LLP Deposit Account No.
`
`50-1814.
