`
`
`NOTICE OF OPPOSITION
`
`Opposer, Lance Armstrong Foundation, a Texas nonprofit corporation, having its principal place
`of business at 2201 E 6th Street, Austin, Texas 78702 ("Opposer") believes that it has been
`andlor will be damaged by the registration of Application Serial No. 77617826 for
`INSTASTRONG and hereby opposes the same.
`
`As grounds for opposition, Opposer alleges that:
`
`1.
`
`2.
`
`3.
`
`According to the Trademark Office records, on or about November 19, 2008, Applicant
`Donald W. Runyan (“Applicant”) applied to register INSTASTRONG, which was
`subsequently assigned Application Serial No. 77617826 (“Applicant's Mark") for “adult
`sexual stimulation aid, namely, penis rigidity enhancement device in the nature of an
`open-cylindrical shaped device which extends over the shaft of a penis in order to
`maintain the shaft of a penis in an erect position,” in class 10, based on App|icant’s intent
`to use Applicant’s Mark in commerce forthe aforementioned goods. This application was
`published in the August 25, 2009 edition of the Official Gazette.
`
`On or about September 24, 2009. Opposer filed a First 90 Day Request for Extension of
`Time to Oppose Applicant’s Mark, and the time period within which to file an opposition
`was extended to December 23, 2009.
`
`On or about December 9, 2009, Opposer filed a further 60 day Request for Extension of
`Time to Op.pose Applicants Mark, with Consent, and the time period within which to file an
`opposition was further extended to February 21, 2010. Because February 21, 2010 is a
`Sunday, pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 2.196, the time period within which to file an opposition is
`extended to Monday, February 22, 2010.
