`
`The mark consists of a design appearingon labels for the goods. The design
`combines a vertical half-circular design with a contrasting vertical more open
`half-circular design. The two components conjoin at the base but divide in the
`middle resulting in two separate and distinctelements. The narrower and more
`open half-circular design superimposes over andextends above the left tapering
`portionof the thicker half-circular design. The word "ENERGIZER" is situated im-
`mediately to the left of the composite design with the ending two letters posi-
`tioned inside the concave of the double half-circular bands.

`The mark consists of a design appearingon packaging for the goods. The design
`comprises two arcuate wave bands. The top band starts on the left, ascends
`briefly, then descends in a curve and ascendsagain three-quarters across to the
`right creating a wave. The lower band startson the left and is a simple arcuate
`ascending generally from the left to the right; the band itself is widest at the left,
`tapers at the offset middle and resumes widening slightly at the right. The bands
`consist of gradient tonal values with a solid elliptical burst punctuatingthe offset
`right area where the bands cross one another. The word "ENERGIZER" is su-
`perimposed over top portions of the bands. The stippling shown in the drawing is
`for indicating the contrasting arrangement; it is not a feature of the markand
`does not indicate color.

`Description of
`Mark
`
`The mark consists of two arcuate wave bands. The top band starts on the left,
`ascends briefly, then descends in a curveand ascends again three-quarters
`acrossto the right creating a wave. The lowerband starts on the left and is a sim-
`plearcuate ascending generally from the left to the right; the band itself is widest
`at the left, tapers at the offset middle and resumes widening slightly at theright.
`The bands consist of gradient tonal values, with a solid elliptical burst punctuat-
`ing the offset right area where the bands cross one another. The word "Ener-
`gizer" is superimposed over top portions of the bands. The stippling shown in
`the drawing is for indicating the contrasting arrangement; it is not a feature of the
`mark and does not indicate color.

`
`Energizer Brands, LLC, a corporation organized and existing under the laws of Delaware,
`
`with an office at 533 Maryville University Drive, St. Louis, Missouri 63141 (“Opposer”),
`
`believes it will be damaged by registration of the marks BATTERISER and BATTERISE as
`
`shown in Application Serial Nos. 86/571,275 and 86/571,464 respectively, and hereby opposes
`
`its registration pursuant to 15 U.S.C. §§ 1051 et seq., including specifically 15 U.S.C. § 1063.
`
`This Notice of Opposition has been timely filed following an extension of time to oppose
`
`granted by the Trademark Trial & Appeal Board (the “TTAB”) on September 11, 2015. As
`
`grounds for its opposition, Opposer alleges as follows:
`
`

`
`As evidenced in Application Serial Nos. 86/571,275 and 86/571,464, Applicant
