`
`REQUEST FOR FIRST EXTENSION OF TIME TO FILE
`NOTICE OF OPPOSITION
`
`Sir:
`
`Apple Computer, |nc., a Delaware corporation, having its principal place of
`
`business at 1 Infinite Loop, Cupertino, California 95014, by and through its attorneys
`
`hereby requests that the Board grant a sixty (60) day extension of time to file a Notice
`
`of Opposition to registration of the APPLE AWARDS trademark by applicant in the
`
`above-referenced case. The opposition period is presently set to expire
`
`
`
`October 25, 2001, and the requested extension of time would re—set the opposition
`
`deadline to December 24, 2001 for Apple Computer, Inc. The opposition period in this
`
`matter has not previously been extended.
`
`This request is not made to unduly delay proceedings in the Patent and
`
`Trademark Office. The extension is required to provide time for counsel to consider the
`
`matter, gather information and to consider conferring with Applicant’s counsel so that a
`
`decision can be made as to whether an opposition should be filed.
`
`it is believed that
`
`this constitutes good cause for the request.
`
`This request is being submitted in triplicate as required by 37 C.F.R.
`
`§2.102(d).
`
`Respectfully submitted,
`
`Dated: October L4’ 2001
