`PETITIONER’S REQUEST FOR REFUND OF POST-INSTITUTION FEES
`
`
`
`
`
`Pursuant to the Patent and Trademark Office’s Final Rule Setting and
`
`Adjusting Patent Fees, 78 Fed. Reg. 4212, 4232–4234 (Jan. 18, 2013), Petitioner,
`
`Initiative for Medicines, Access & Knowledge (I-MAK), Inc., requests a refund in
`
`the amount of $14,000 to be credited to Deposit Account Number 601986.
`
`
`
`On December 6, 2017, Petitioner filed its Petition for Inter Partes Review in
`
`this matter. In accordance with the fee schedule specified in 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a),
`
`Petitioner deposited an electronic payment in the amount of $9,000 with the Board
`
`at the time of filing of its Petition to cover associated fees with Petitioner’s inter
`
`partes review request, and a further $14,000 in Post-Institution fees.
`
`
`
`On June 20, 2018, the Board entered a Decision denying institution of this
`
`proceeding. Accordingly, Petitioner requests a refund in the amount of $14,000 for
`
`the post-institution fees that it paid to the USPTO in connection with this
`
`proceeding and that the refund be credited to Deposit Account No. 601986.
