`
`assigned case number IPR2015-00022. At the time of filing their petition,

`schedule set forth in 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a), including $14,000 for the Inter Partes
`
`Review Post-Institution fee under 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a)(2). On March 10, 2015,
`
`the Board denied institution of IPR2015-00022 (Paper No. 9). Accordingly,
`
`Petitioners hereby request refund of $14,000 for the Inter Partes Review Post-

`
`Upon review and approval of this Request, Petitioners respectfully request
