`
`Jul 1, 2016
`
`WARNING:  Your trademark registration will be CANCELLED and will EXPIRE if you do not file the required documents below during the specified statutory time
`periods.
`
`The above-identified registration registered on Jul 1, 1997.  Therefore, the owner of the registration must file a Declaration of Use and/or Excusable Nonuse and an
`Application for Renewal under §§8 and 9 of the Trademark Act anytime between now and Jul 3, 2017.  For an additional fee, the owner may file the documents within the
`six-month grace period that ends on Jan 2, 2018.   See 15 U.S.C. §§1058, 1059.  The current fee for a combined filing under §§8 and 9 is $400 per class for filings submitted
`through the USPTO's official website using the Trademark Electronic Application System ("TEAS"), and the additional fee for filing during the six-month grace period is $200 per
`class.  37 C.F.R. §2.6.
`
`To expedite processing, the owner is encouraged to file through TEAS.  Official forms for filing a Combined Declaration of Use and/or Excusable Nonuse and Application for
`Renewal under §§8 and 9 are available through TEAS at http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/teas/reg_maintain.jsp.
`
`For information regarding how to record ownership documents such as assignments, name changes and mergers, please see TMEP §503.  To expedite recordation, the owner
`is encouraged to file requests for recordation through the Electronic Trademark Assignment System ("ETAS") at http://etas.uspto.gov.
`
`For further information regarding the maintenance of a trademark registration, including future maintenance filings, please consult the USPTO website at
`http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/process/maintain/prfaq.jsp.
`
`This reminder notice is being sent only as a courtesy to those trademark owners who have authorized e-mail communication and maintain a current e-mail address with
`the USPTO.   Failure by the USPTO to send a reminder or non-receipt of a reminder does not excuse a trademark owner from meeting the statutory obligations for maintaining a
`trademark registration.  If a registration is cancelled and/or expired due to the failure to timely file required maintenance documents, it cannot be reinstated or revived.
`
`To check the status of this registration, go to http://tsdr.uspto.gov/#caseNumber=74667991&caseType=SERIAL_NO&searchType=statusSearch or contact the Trademark
`Assistance Center at 1-800-786-9199.
`
`Beware of Unofficial Trademark Solicitations:  Please be aware that private companies not associated with the USPTO often use trademark registration information from the
`USPTO's database to mail or e-mail trademark-related solicitations.  This is the only official reminder that you will receive from the USPTO about your upcoming required
`maintenance filings.  For additional information about these private solicitations, please visit the USPTO website at http://www.uspto.gov/trademarks/solicitation_warnings.jsp.
`
`In order to be eligible for future e-mail reminders of maintenance filings, please remember to authorize e-mail communication when filing your maintenance documents through
`TEAS and ensure that you maintain a current e-mail address with the USPTO.
