                 1        The involved Seeley application contains claims 4 and 42.  The Declaration is ambiguous in that it                            
                 indicates that Seeley claim 4 corresponds to Count 1 but also indicates that the claim does not correspond to                          
                 Count 1 and is not involved in the interference.  (Paper 1 at 4).  A review of the record indicates that claim 4                       
                 should not have been designated as corresponding to Count 1 (See, e.g., “Interference Initial Memorandum”                              
                 attached to the Declaration.).                                                                                                         

                                                                          -2-
