Dear Julie,
I have reviewed the above-referenced trademark application, and it appears that there is only one slight issue that needs to be addressed before the application can be moved forward. Specifically, we will need to disclaim the descriptive wording HEALTH, as was done in the other applications with the same wording. As such, I propose the following disclaimer statement: No claim is made to the exclusive right to use “HEALTH” apart from the mark as shown.
I am happy to make these changes by Examiner’s Amendment, if acceptable. Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.
Very truly yours,
Laura
