`
`Paper No. 9 Case No. IPR2015-01531
`October 6, 2015
`
`
`
`Petitioner Under Armour, Inc. (“Petitioner”) requests a refund of post-
`
`institution fees in the amount of $14,000.00.
`
`
`
`On July 1, 2015, Petitioner filed a Petition for Inter Partes review of U.S.
`
`Patent No. 8,725,276. As required by 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a), Petitioner deposited
`
`$23,000.00 with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) at the time of
`
`filing the Petition to cover associated fees. Petitioner’s payment consisted of
`
`$9,000.00 in fees associated with the request for Inter Partes review, and a further
`
`$14,000.00 in post-institution fees.
`
`
`
`On September 21, 2015, the Board issued an Order terminating the present
`
`proceeding (Paper 8). Inter Partes review was not instituted. Accordingly,
`
`Petitioner requests a refund of the post-institution fees paid to the USPTO in
`
`connection with this proceeding, totaling $14,000.00, to be paid to deposit account
`
`number 506499 (referencing Attorney Docket No.78678.0026).
