Subject: 86796589 - AUTOMATTIC; Minor Amendment to Description

 

Mary,

 

I apologize, there’s one minor issue that needs to be addressed before 86796589 – AUTOMATTIC may be approved for pub due to the white in the “O” in the drawing for “AUTOMATTIC.”  Please let me know if you agree to the following minor amendment to the mark description:

 

Amendment to Mark Description

 

The mark consists of "AUTOMATTIC" in stylized font, the letter "O" contains a small diagonal slash. The letter "O" is in blue. The letters "A, U, T, M, A, T, T, I, and C" and the diagonal slash inside the "O" are in black. The upper left corner of the letter "I" is missing.  The color white shown in the drawing represents transparent areas and is not part of the mark. 

 

(emphasis added).

 

Just an FYI, I am leaving for vacation tomorrow, so please do let me know as soon as possible if you wish to proceed via Examiner’s Amendment.  I apologize for the inconvenience.  

 

Thank you,
