`
`OFFICE ACTION
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`O AVOID ABANDONMENT, THE OFFICE MUST RECEIVE A PROPER RESPONSE TO THIS OFFICE ACTION WITHIN 6 MONTHS
`OF THE ISSUE/MAILING DATE.
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`SSUE/MAILING DATE: 7/2/2008
`
`The referenced application has been reviewed by the assigned trademark examining attorney.(cid:160) Applicant must respond timely and completely to
`the issue(s) below.(cid:160) 15 U.S.C. §1062(b); 37 C.F.R. §§2.62, 2.65(a); TMEP §§711, 718.03.
`
`(cid:160)(cid:160)
`
`SEARCH
`
`(cid:160) T
`
`he Office records have been searched and there are no similar registered or pending marks that would bar registration under Trademark Act
`Section 2(d), 15 U.S.C. §1052(d). TMEP §704.02.
`
`DISCLAIMER REQUIRED
`
`(cid:160)A
`
`pplicant must disclaim the descriptive wording “480 HZ” apart from the mark as shown because it merely describes a feature of applicant’s
`goods.(cid:160) See 15 U.S.C. §1056(a); TMEP §§1213, 1213.03(a). The letters “HZ” are an abbreviation for “HERTZ” which refers to “a unit of
`
`(cid:160)
`(cid:160)
`

`
`measurement for electrical vibration.” (cid:160) The term Hertz is frequently used when describing audio bands. See attached evidence demonstrating
`usage and defining the terms. Here, the wording “480 HZ” in applicant’s mark is descriptive of the level of frequency used in applicant’s
`goods. Hence a disclaimer is required.
`The computerized printing format for the Office’s Trademark Official Gazette requires a standardized format for a disclaimer.(cid:160) TMEP
`§1213.08(a)(i).(cid:160) The following is the standard format used by the Office:
`
`No claim is made to the exclusive right to use “480 HZ” apart from the mark as shown.
`
`(cid:160)T
`
`MEP §1213.08(a)(i); see In re Owatonna Tool Co., 231 USPQ 493 (Comm’r Pats. 1983).
`
`(cid:160)I
`
`(cid:160) If it is not both, both should
`
`DENTIFICATION OF GOODS
`Applicant’s use of “or” is unacceptable because “or” suggests that it could be either, but is not necessarily both.
`not be listed, and if it is both, “and” is accurate.
`Plasma television sets; slim television sets equipped with a flat display; video apparatus, namely video cassette recorders, digital video disc
`players and digital video disc recorders, all equipped with a flat display, in International Class 9.
`Please note that, while the identification of goods may be amended to clarify or limit the goods, adding to the goods or broadening the scope of
`the goods is not permitted.(cid:160) 37 C.F.R. §2.71(a); TMEP §1402.06.(cid:160) Therefore, applicant may not amend the identification to include goods that are
`not within the scope of the goods set forth in the present identification.
`For assistance with identifying and classifying goods and/or services in trademark applications, please see the online searchable Manual of
`Acceptable Identifications of Goods and Services at http://tess2.uspto.gov/netahtml/tidm.html.
`Combined Applications
`If applicant prosecutes this application as a combined, or multiple-class application, then applicant must comply with each of the following for
`those goods and/or services based on an intent to use the mark in commerce under Trademark Act Section 1(b):
`(1)(cid:160)(cid:160) Applicant must list the goods and/or services by international class with the classes listed in ascending numerical order.(cid:160) TMEP §
`1403.01; and
`(2)(cid:160)(cid:160) Applicant must submit a filing fee for each international class of goods and/or services not covered by the fee already paid (current fee
`information should be confirmed at http://www.uspto.gov).(cid:160) 37 C.F.R. §2.86(a)(2); TMEP §§810 and 1403.01.
`
`Fee
`The filing fee for adding classes to an application is as follows:
`(1)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160) $325 per class, when the fees are submitted with a response filed online via the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS) at
`http://www.uspto.gov/teas/index.html; and
`
`(2)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160)(cid:160) $375 per class, when the fees are submitted with a paper response.(cid:160)
`37 C.F.R. §§2.6(a)(i) and (ii); TMEP §810.

`
`hertz (Hz)
`
`A unit of measurement for electrical vibration. one Hz is equal to one cycle per second. It replaces the earlier term
`"cycle per second [cps}." For example, in the United States. the common household electrical supply is at GE} hertz
`{meaning that the current changes direction or polarity 120 times. or 50 cycles. per second}.
`
`In Europe. line frequency is 5!] hertz, or 50 cycles per second. In general, broadcast transmission is at much higher
`frequency rates, usually expressed in l'(ll0l'|E|'l.Z (KHz} or megahertz (MHz). ln acoustic sound. the range of human
`hearing is from [1 Hz to roughly 20 KHz (depending on many factors. including age and how loud the drummer in your
`high school roclc band played}. The pitch of Middle C on a piano is 263 Hz.
`
`Hertz is also used frequently when describing the individual bands of an audio equalizer. To make that Middle C
`louder. you could use an equalizer to boost other frequencies to around 263 Hz. This unit of measure is named alter
`Heinrich Hertz. a German physicist.
`
`see also: audio . megahertz [MHzl.
