`
`PETITIONER’S REQUEST FOR REFUND
`

`
`
`
`
`Petitioner’s Request for Refund: IPR2016-01832
`
`Petitioner Exablaze Pty. Ltd. requests a refund in the amount of $14,000 to
`
`be paid to Deposit Account No. 506092.
`
`On September 16, 2016, Petitioner filed a Petition for Inter Partes Review
`
`with the United States Patent & Trademark Office that was assigned case number
`
`IPR2016-01832. Petitioner sought review of claims 1-12 of U.S. Patent No.
`
`8,645,558. In accordance with 37 C.F.R. § 42.15(a), Petitioner paid $23,000 to the
`
`USPTO at the time of filing its Petition as follows:
`
`• $9,000 (initial fee); and
`
`• $14,000 (post-institution fee).
` On April 3, 2017, the Patent Trial and Appeal Board declined to institute an
`
`IPR trial in IPR2016-01832. Petitioner thus requests a refund of its $14,000 post-
`
`institution fee.
`
`
`
`Date: April 20, 2017
