- with respect to a feature of an amended claim for maintaining a patent in amended form, said feature resulting from amendments of the application as filed made before grant of the patent and whereby no ground of opposition concerning the allowability of amendments was contained in the notice of opposition pursuant to Rule 55(c) EPC and no objection in this sense has been made during the opposition proceedings, the Board of Appeal may examine this point only with the approval of the patentee. However, the Board may not examine this point if patentee's arguments are convincing that, prima facie, these amendments of the application as filed are correctly based on the application as filed.
