A different apportionment of costs may be ordered in accordance with Art. 104 EPC and Art. 16 RPBA 2007, if a party, for example, withdraws a request for oral proceedings, asks for their postponement, or fails to attend them (see chapter III.R.2.2. "Acts or omissions prejudicing the timely and efficient conduct of oral proceedings").
