| No opposition was filed for this published application. The issue date of this NOA establishes the due date for the filing of
a Statement of Use (SOU) or a Request for Extension of Time to file a Statement of Use (Extension Request). WARNING: An SOU that meets all legal requirements must be filed before a registration

| SIX (6)-MONTH DEADLINE: Applicant has six (6) MONTHS from the NOA issue date to file either: |
| - |
An SOU, if the applicant is using the mark in commerce (required even if the applicant was using the mark at the time of filing the
application, if use basis was not specified originally); OR |
| - |
An Extension Request, if the applicant is not yet using the mark in commerce. If an Extension Request is filed, a new request must
be filed every six (6) months until the SOU is filed. The applicant may file a total of five (5) extension requests. WARNING: An SOU may not be filed more than thirty-six
(36) months from when the NOA issued. The deadline for filing is always calculated from the issue date of the NOA. |
How to file SOU and/or Extension Request:

legal requirements, including fees and verified statements; therefore, please use the USPTO forms available online at http://www.gov.uspto.report/trademarks-application-process/filing-online (under the "INTENT-TO-USE (ITU) FORMS" category) to avoid the possible omission of required information.
