`Declaration
`
`Basis:
`If the applicant is filing the application based on use in commerce under 15 U.S.C. § 1051(a):
`
`The signatory believes that the applicant is the owner of the trademark/service mark sought to be registered;
`The mark is in use in commerce on or in connection with the goods/services in the application;
`The specimen(s) shows the mark as used on or in connection with the goods/services in the application; and
`To the best of the signatory's knowledge and belief, the facts recited in the application are accurate.
`
`And/Or
`If the applicant is filing the application based on an intent to use the mark in commerce under 15 U.S.C. § 1051(b), § 1126(d),
`and/or § 1126(e):
`
`The signatory believes that the applicant is entitled to use the mark in commerce;
`The applicant has a bona fide intention to use the mark in commerce on or in connection with the goods/services in the
`application; and
`To the best of the signatory's knowledge and belief, the facts recited in the application are accurate.
`
`To the best of the signatory's knowledge and belief, no other persons, except, if applicable, concurrent users, have the right to use the
`mark in commerce, either in the identical form or in such near resemblance as to be likely, when used on or in connection with the
`goods/services of such other persons, to cause confusion or mistake, or to deceive.
`
`To the best of the signatory's knowledge, information, and belief, formed after an inquiry reasonable under the circumstances, the
`allegations and other factual contentions made above have evidentiary support.
`
`The signatory being warned that willful false statements and the like are punishable by fine or imprisonment, or both, under 18 U.S.C. §
`1001, and that such willful false statements and the like may jeopardize the validity of the application or submission or any registration
`resulting therefrom, declares that all statements made of his/her own knowledge are true and all statements made on information and
`belief are believed to be true.
