`
`Required submission. The owner of the trademark registration must file a Declaration of Use and/or Excusable Nonuse Under Section 8 (Section 8 Declaration) between
`now and October 18, 2022. For an additional fee, the owner can file within the 6-month grace period that ends on April 18, 2023.
`
`Optional submission. If the owner can claim the benefits of incontestability, the owner may file an optional Declaration of Incontestability under Section 15. This may be
`combined with the required Section 8 Declaration by filing a Combined Declaration of Use and Incontestability Under Sections 8 and 15 (Combined Sections 8 and 15
`
`Declaration).
`
`If ownership of the registration or the owner's name has changed, the owner can use the Electronic Trademark Assignment System (ETAS) to record the
`change. More information on changes of ownership/owner name is available on the USPTO website.

`
`Proof of Use Audit. The USPTO is conducting an audit program to promote the accuracy and integrity of the trademark register. If a registration is selected for audit, the
`holder/owner will be required to submit proof of use for additional goods/services for which use is claimed in a Section 8 Declaration. Detailed information about the program is
`available on the Proof of Use Audit Program webpage.
`
`Determination of time of receipt by USPTO. Correspondence transmitted through the Trademark Electronic Application System (TEAS) is considered filed on the date the
`USPTO receives the transmission in Eastern Time.
`
`If the owner fails to file a timely Section 8 Declaration the registration will be CANCELLED and cannot be reinstated.
`
`This reminder notice is being sent only as a courtesy to trademark owners who maintain a current email address with the USPTO. Failure by the USPTO to send a
`reminder or non-receipt of a reminder does not excuse a trademark owner from meeting the statutory obligations for maintaining a registration.
`
`Foreign-domiciled owners must have a U.S.-licensed attorney represent them at the USPTO in any post-registration filing.
`
`Beware of misleading notices sent by private companies about registrations. Private companies not associated with the USPTO use public information available in
`trademark registrations to mail and email trademark-related offers and notices - most of which require fees. All official USPTO correspondence will only be emailed from the
`domain "@uspto.gov."
`
`Direct questions about this notice to the Trademark Assistance Center at 1-800-786-9199 (select option 1) or TrademarkAssistanceCenter@uspto.gov.
