`
`Application suspended until submission of foreign registration or proof that foreign registration was renewed. Applicant is required to
`provide a copy of a foreign registration from applicant’s country of origin; the foreign registration must be valid when the U.S. registration
`issues. 15 U.S.C. §1126(e); 37 C.F.R. §2.34(a)(3)(ii)-(iii); TMEP §§1004, 1004.01(a). Action on the application is suspended until the USPTO

`
`also provide an English translation if the foreign registration or renewal document is not in English. 37 C.F.R. §2.34(a)(3)(ii)-(iii).
`
`If the foreign application abandons or the foreign registration is not renewed, applicant should promptly notify the trademark examining
`attorney. See TMEP §§1003.08, 1004.01(a). In such case, applicant may amend the application to rely on another filing basis, if appropriate, and
`will retain the priority filing date, if applicable. TMEP §§1003.08, 1004.01(a).
`
`
`

`No response required. Applicant may file a response, but is not required to do so.

`
`USPTO OFFICIAL NOTICE
`
`Office Action (Official Letter) has issued
`on November 30, 2021 for
`U.S. Trademark Application Serial No. 90788405
`
`A USPTO examining attorney has reviewed your trademark application and issued an Office action. You may be required to
`respond to this Office action. Follow the steps below.
`
`(1) Read the Office action HERE. This email is NOT the Office action.
`
`(2) Respond to the Office action, if a response is required. Respond by the deadline using the Trademark Electronic
`Application System (TEAS). Your response must be received by the USPTO on or before 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time of the last day
`of the response period. Otherwise, your application will be abandoned. See the Office action itself regarding how to respond.
`
`(3) Direct general questions about using USPTO electronic forms, the USPTO website, the application process, the status of your
`application, and whether there are outstanding deadlines to the Trademark Assistance Center (TAC).
`
`After reading the Office action, address any question(s) regarding the specific content to the USPTO examining attorney identified in
`the Office action.
`
`GENERAL GUIDANCE
`· Check the status of your application periodically in the Trademark Status & Document Retrieval (TSDR) database to avoid
`missing critical deadlines.
`
`· Update your correspondence email address to ensure you receive important USPTO notices about your application.
`
`· Beware of misleading notices sent by private companies about your application. Private companies not associated with
`the USPTO may mail or email you trademark-related offers and notices – most of which require fees. The USPTO will only
`email official USPTO correspondence from the domain “@uspto.gov.”
`
`· Hiring a U.S.-licensed attorney.
`If you do not have an attorney and are not required to have one under the trademark rules,
`we encourage you to hire a U.S.-licensed attorney specializing in trademark law to help guide you through the registration
`process. The USPTO examining attorney identified above is not your attorney and cannot give you legal advice, but rather
`works for and represents the USPTO in trademark matters.
