`
`CORRECTION IN SMALL ENTITY STATUS
`lt has been discovered that Applicant/Patentee (collectively "Applicant") may have lost
`
`entitlement lo small entity status in regard to the above-referen<.:ed patent(s) and/or patent
`
`application(s) (the ''Patents and Patent Applications") at ::.<JnH:: date on or after July 5, 2007.
`
`Applicant has paid fees for the Patents and Patent Application at the rate of a small entity,
`
`however, due to the uncertainty of small entity status after July 5, 2007, Applicant is choosing to
`
`pay large entity fees out of an abundance of caution. Applicants respectfully request that any fee
`
`deficiencies owed are charged to Deposit /\ccount 50-6191 and Applicant files this letter in.
`
`compliance with 37 CFR l.28(c).
