`Attorney Docket No.: 1516.04.RE

`
`REMARKS
`
`1. Claims 1-26 are currently pending. The present Supplemental Amendment C makes
`
`no substantive amendmentsto any of the claims.
`
`2. 37 C.F.R. §1.111(a)(2)states that “[t]he Office may enter a supplementalreplyif the
`
`supplementalreply is clearly limited to: ...(C) Placement of the application in
`
`condition for allowance; ... [or] (E) Correction of informalities.” The present
`
`Supplemental AmendmentC is limited to these two statutorily permitted purposes,
`
`and therefore, may be entered in its entirety.
`
`3. Claims 7-26 stand objected to on twoinformalities:
`
`a. Claims 7-26 stand objected to as they are not underlined per 37 C.F.R.
`
`1.173(d)(2), which states that “[t]he matter to be added by reissue must be
`
`underlined.” Accordingly, Applicant has underlined claims 7-26.
`
`b. Claim 7 stands objectedto as its steps are not separated bya line indentation
`
`per 37 C.F.R. 1.75(i), which states that “[w]here a claim sets forth a plurality
`
`of elements or steps, each elementor step of the claim should be separated
`
`by a line indentation.” Accordingly, Applicant has separated all
`
`elements/steps of claims 1, 2, 6, 7,12, 17 and 22 by line indentations as those
`
`claims cover a plurality of elements/steps. The claims are now believed to be
`
`in full compliance with 37 C.F.R. 1.75(i).
`
`4. Applicant submits a Supplemental Reissue Oath/Declaration concurrently with this
`
`Supplemental AmendmentC in compliance with the MPEP 1414.01, whichstates
`
`that “[t]he supplemental oath/declaration in accordance with 37 CFR 1.175(b)(1)
`
`must be submitted before allowance.” To ensurefull compliance withall statutory
