** IMPORTANT INFORMATION: 6 MONTH DEADLINE **

You filed the trademark application identified below based upon a bona fide intention to use the mark in commerce. You must use the mark in commerce and file a Statement of Use (a.k.a. Allegation of Use) before the USPTO will register the mark. You have six (6) MONTHS from the ISSUE DATE of this Notice of Allowance (NOA) to file either a Statement of Use, or if you are not yet using the mark in commerce, a Request for Extension of Time to File a Statement of Use ("Extension Request"). If you file an extension request, you must continue to file a new request every six months calculated from the issue date of the NOA until the Statement of Use is filed. Applicant may file a total of five (5) extension requests. FAILURE TO FILE A REQUIRED DOCUMENT DURING THE APPROPRIATE TIME PERIOD WILL RESULT IN THE ABANDONMENT OF YOUR APPLICATION.

Please note that both the "Statement of Use " and "Extension Request" have many legal requirements including fees. Therefore, we encourage use of the USPTO forms, available online at http://www.gov.uspto.report/teas/index.html (under "INTENT-TO-USE (ITU) FORMS"), to avoid the possible omission of important information. Please note that the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS) provides line-by-line help instructions for completing the Extension Request or Statement of Use forms online. If you do not have access to the Internet, you may call 1-800-786-9199 to request the printed form(s).

** Registration Subject to Cancellation for Fraudulent Statements **

Ensure that statements made in filings to the USPTO are accurate, as inaccuracies may result in the cancellation of your trademark registration. The lack of a bona fide intention to use the mark with all goods and/or services included in an application or the lack of use on all goods and/or services for which you claimed use could jeopardize the validity of your registration, possibly resulting in its cancellation.
