`
`PETITION FOR CANCELLATION
`
`Petitioner Alvogen IP Co S.a.r.l.
`
`("Petitioner"),
`
`requests
`
`cancellation of
`
`the
`
`aboVe—identif1ed Registration. The basis for cancellation is set forth below.
`
`1.
`
`Petitioner
`
`is
`
`a Luxembourg Corporation with an address of rue Erasme
`
`Luxembourg L-2082 Luxembourg.
`
`2.
`
`Upon information and belief, Registrant Sanofi ("Respondent"),
`
`is a French
`
`corporation with a business address of 174 avenue de France F-75013 Paris, France.
`
`3.
`
`Petitioner is the owner of Trademark Application No. 77/939,659 for the mark
`
`"A” LOGO and Design in International Class5 for "pharmaceutical preparations, namely,
`
`antibiotics, antidiabetics, antihypertensives, antidepressants, analgesics, anti-inflammatories,
`
`antivirals, and antiepileptics; transdermal patches for use in the treatment of infections, diabetes,
`
`i(S(l(>l>%<>t4
`
`lyrlm;
`
`

`
`hypertension, depression, pain, inflammation, and epilepsy; and contraceptive sponges," and in
`
`International Class 42 for "pharmaceutical research services."
`
`4.
`
`Respondent
`
`is
`
`the owner of U.S. Registration No. 3,127,143 (the "Mobius
`
`Triangle Device Registration") in International Class 5 for "pharmaceutical preparations, namely,
`
`medicines for the treatment of obesity, tobacco withdrawal, and for prevention of cardiovascular
`
`diseases; dietetic foods adapted for medical use; beverages for medical use, namely, nutritionally
`
`fortified beverages and vitamin fortified beverages; medicinal
`
`infusions in the nature of
`
`medicinal herbs."
`
`5.
`
`Respondent's Mobius Triangle Device Registration is depicted as follows:
`
`
`
`The mark is described as a "mobius triangle shape," claiming the color yellow, orange, and red as
`
`a feature of the mark.
`
`6.
`
`On information and belief, Respondent has never used the mark depicted in the
`
`Mobius Triangle Device Registration in the United States in connection with the goods identified
`
`in paragraph 4 above.
`
`7.
`
`Through Respondent's actions, and/or failures to use the mark in the United
`
`States, Respondent has abandoned all rights in and to the Mobius Triangle Device Registration.
`
`Therefore, Petitioner believes that Respondent's Registration should be cancelled due to
`
`abandonment pursuant to 15 U.S.C. § 1064(3).
