`NOTICE OF OPPOSITION

`
`UNITED STATES PATENT AND TRADEMARK OFFICE
`
`Trademark Trial and Appeal Board
`P.O. Box 1451
`
`Alexandria, VA 22313-1451
`
`Opposer, Annco, Inc., a Delaware corporation, located at 7 Times Square, New York,
`
`New York 10036, believes that it will be damaged by registration of the mark LOFT as shown in
`
`Application Serial No. 79/057849 (the “Application”), filed by Applicant August Storck KG
`
`(“Applicant”), and Annco, Inc., having been granted an extension of time to oppose up to and
`
`including October 9, 2009, hereby opposes same.
`
`As grounds for opposition, it is alleged that:
`
`OPPOSER’S BUSINESS AND RIGHTS
`
`1.
`
`Opposer, its affiliates and their predecessors (referred to collectively as
`
`“Opposer”) is a leading retailer of women’s apparel, accessories and other products in the United
`
`States. For almost 15 years, which is long prior to July 25, 2008, Applicant’s U.S. filing date,
`
`24719/000/l l30733.4
`
`

`
`Opposer has been in the business of designing, having manufactured, selling and distributing a
`
`wide array of goods sold in its retail stores and through its website using marks consisting of or
`
`containing the word LOFT, used either separately or in conjunction with other words, letters or
`
`design elements (the “LOFT Marks”).
`
`2.
`
`Since the launch of Opposer’s LOFT brand in 1995, when its first LOFT retail
`
`store opened, Opposer has extensively marketed and promoted a variety of goods bearing the
`
`LOFT Marks through its retail stores and website in the United States. As a result, the LOFT
`
`business has become a huge commercial success, with LOFT sales in the last three fiscal years
`
`totaling in excess of 3 billion United States Dollars. As of January 31, 2009, there were 510
`
`LOFT retail stores in the United States, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The LOFT
`
`Marks have not only come to identify the stores and products of Opposer, but also have become a
`
`symbol of the distinction and quality associated with Opposer by consumers and the trade
`
`overall.
`
`3.
`
`As a result of the extensive sales and promotion of its goods and services bearing
`
`or offered in connection with Opposer’s LOFT Marks, Opposer has built up highly valuable
`
`goodwill in the LOFT Marks. The LOFT Marks have become famous and uniquely associated
`
`with Opposer’s retail stores and website and with Opposer’s women’s apparel, accessories and
`
`other goods sold in Opposer’s stores and through its website.
`
`4.
`
`Annco, Inc. is the owner of the following registrations and applications in the
`
`United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) for the LOFT Marks:

`
`

`
`APPLICANT’S APPLICATION AND LACK OF RIGHTS
`
`5.
`
`On July 25, 2008, the Application filed by Applicant sought an extension of its
`
`International Registration No. 974,627 to the USPTO to register in the United States the mark
`
`LOFT for “confectionery, namely, candy, chocolates, chocolate chips, fruit gums, chewing gums,
`
`lollipops; chocolate products, namely, chocolate powder and chocolate syrup; pastries, ice-cream;
`
`preparations for making the aforementioned products, namely, cocoa powder and sugar.”
`
`6.
`
`Upon information and belief, Applicant did not use prior to July 25, 2008 the
`
`LOFT mark in U.S. commerce for some or all of the goods claimed in its Application.
`
`7.
`
`Upon information and belief, Applicant has never used to the date of this Notice
`
`of Opposition the LOFT mark in U.S. commerce for some or all of the goods claimed in its
`
`Application.
`
`8.
`
`Upon information and belief, Applicant has not taken any steps to the date of this
`
`Notice of Opposition to use or to license the use of the LOFT mark in U.S. commerce for some
`
`or all of the goods claimed in its Application.
`
`APPLICANT’S REPEATED AND CONTINUING HISTORY OF FAILING TO
`ESTABLISH RIGHTS
`
`9.
`
`Applicant has a history of first seeking or obtaining a registration of LOFT in the
`
`USPTO based on non-U.S. rights and then failing to file any evidence that it has used the LOFT
`
`mark in U.S. commerce.
`
`10.
`
`Upon information and belief, on November 29, 1990, Applicant previously filed
`
`in the USPTO an application, Serial No 74/119484, to register LOFT for “confectionery,
`
`24719/000/l l30733.4
`
`

`
`chewing gum for nomnedical purposes, chocolate, chocolate products, including pralines;
`
`pastries” in Class 30 based on a German application, and on April 2, 1992, Applicant abandoned
`
`that application in the USPTO by failing to respond to an office action.
`
`11.
`
`Upon information and belief, Applicant had a previous registration in the USPTO,
`
`Registration No. 1972196 issued May 7, 1996, of LOFT for “candy” in Class 30 based on a
`
`German registration, and that registration in the USPTO was cancelled on Februaiy 8, 2003 for
`
`failure to file a statement of use.
`
`12.
`
`Upon information and belief, Applicant has a current registration in the USPTO,
`
`Registration No. 2,731,327 issued July 1, 2003, of LOFT for “candy, chocolate, chocolate
`
`candies and pastries” in Class 30 based on a German registration, and Applicant failed to file a
`
`statement of use prior to July 1, 2009, the deadline for doing so.
`
`APPLICANT’S FALSE STATEMENTS
`
`13.
`
`Upon information and belief, at the time Applicant requested that its International
`
`Application be extended to the United States resulting in the Application here in issue, Applicant
`
`made a statement to the effect that Applicant had a bona fide intention to use the mark on all of
`
`the goods claimed in its Application.
`
`14.
`
`Upon information and belief, at the time Applicant requested that its International
`
`Application be extended to the United States resulting in the Application here in issue, Applicant
`
`did not have a bona fide intention to use the LOFT mark in U.S. commerce for some or all of the
`
`goods claimed in its Application.
`
`24719/000/l l30733.4
`
`

`
`15.
`
`Upon information and belief, in requesting that its International Application be
`
`extended to the United States resulting in the Application here in issue, Applicant made one or
`
`more false statements about Applicant’s intention to use the trademark LOFT in U.S. commerce
`
`for some or all of the goods claimed in its Application.
`
`16.
`
`Upon information and belief, in requesting that its International Application be
`
`extended to the United States resulting in the Application here in issue, Applicant committed
`
`fraud on the USPTO by making one or more false statements about Applicant’s intention to use
`
`the trademark LOFT in U.S. commerce for some or all of the goods claimed in its Application,
`
`and these were knowingly false statements of material fact with the intent to deceive the USPTO,
`
`and/or were made in reckless disregard of the truth or falsity of those statements, and/or were
`
`made after grossly insufficient investigation of the facts.
`
`OPPOSER’S INJURY
`
`17.
`
`The tremendous amount of time, effort and money expended by Opposer to build
`
`up the LOFT brand name over the past years, and the phenomenal growth of that business, has
`
`caused the LOFT Marks to become famous and distinctive of Opposer’s business. Opposer
`
`would be injured by the granting of such registration because App1icant’s LOFT mark is likely to
`
`cause dilution by blurring or tamishment of the distinctive significance and quality of the LOFT
`
`Marks that uniquely identify Opposer’s products and services in the United States.
`
`18.
`
`Applicant’s LOFT mark also is likely, when applied to the goods identified in the
`
`Application, to cause confilsion, or to cause mistake or to deceive in that prospective consumers
`
`of Applicant’s goods and services naturally will believe that the goods originated, were approved
`
`247l9/000/1 l30733.4
`
`10
`
`

`
`or were sponsored by Opposer. Opposer would thereby be injured by the granting to Applicant
`
`of the registrations sought.
`
`19.
`
`Opposer would be further injured by the granting of a certificate of registration to
`
`Applicant because Applicant’s LOFT mark would falsely suggest an affiliation, connection or
`
`association of Applicant with Opposer.
`
`WHEREFORE, Opposer, by its attorneys, respectfully requests that their opposition be
`
`sustained and that the Application be denied.
