DRAWING AND SPECIMEN
The drawing displays the mark as POWERGRIDS. However, this differs from the display of the mark on the specimen, where it appears as POWERGRID. The applicant must either:
(1) submit a new drawing of the mark that agrees with the specimen; or
(2) submit a substitute specimen that shows use of the mark shown in the drawing.
The applicant may not amend the drawing if the amendment would materially alter the character of the mark. 37 C.F.R. §2.72(b); TMEP §§807.14, 807.14(a) and 807.14(a)(i).
If a substitute specimen is submitted, the applicant must verify, with an affidavit or a declaration
under 37 C.F.R. §2.20, that the substitute specimen was in use in commerce prior to the expiration of the time allowed to the applicant for filing a statement of use. 37 C.F.R. §§2.59(b) and 2.72(b); TMEP §904.09.
