I believe there are newer revisions of all four patches available:
108434-09, 108435-09, 109147-18, and 111697-04.  As such, it might make
sense to go ahead with the higher revisions now in case something that
needs them comes along later.  (This information is courtesy of my
current workplace's sysadmins, who recently ran into the same issue.)
