ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS SECTION
MISCELLANEOUS STATEMENT In brief, Applicant has amended each of the class 11, 21 and 28 goods in the application. Previously, on September 30, 2004, proposed amendments to the goods identification were faxed to the Examining Attorney for review and approval. It is respectfully submitted that the identification of the goods, is now in appropriate form. The Examiner further cited prior Registration No. 2,575,445 for O2 and Design against the present mark. The prior registration for O2 and Design recites goods including electric fans. Applicant respectfully submits that applicant’s mark, when used on or in connection with the identified goods, does not so resemble the registered mark for O2 and Design as to be likely to cause confusion, to cause mistake or to deceive. Of the goods recited in the present application, only those in class 011 recite fans and it is noted that the recitation, as now revised, includes no electric (non-portable) fans. It is also noted that the marks themselves differ significantly in appearance and presentation and such that, regardless of the differences between the respective goods, confusion would again be unlikely. For the above-reasons, it is respectfully submitted that the present application is now in appropriate form for publication and such action is respectfully submitted. Attorney for Applicant may be contacted at (248) 647-6000 with any questions the Examining Attorney may have.
