`
`RE: Serial Number 76/405693
`
`The assigned examining attorney has reviewed the referenced application and determined the
`following.
`
`The applicant must disclaim the descriptive wording “VANILLA” apart from the mark as shown.
`Trademark Act Section 6, 15 U.S.C. §1056; TMEP §§l2l3 and 12l3.03(a). The wording is merely
`descriptive because it is a generic flavor designation for the goods.
`
`The computerized printing format for the Trademark Oficial Gazette requires a standard form for a
`disclaimer. TMEP §l213.08(a)(i). A properly worded disclaimer should read as follows:
`
`No claim is made to the exclusive right to use VANILLA apart from the mark as shown.
`
`See In re Owalonna Tool Co., 231 USPQ 493 (Comm’r Pats. 1983).
`
`The examining attorney has searched the Office records and has found no similar registered or
`pending mark which would bar registration under Trademark Act Section 2(d),
`15 U.S.C.
`§1052(d). TMEP §704.o2.
`_
`»
`
`

`
`PLEASE NOTE: All of the issues raised can be resolved by telephone. The applicant may
`telephone the examining attorney,
`instead of submitting a written response,
`to expedite the
`application.
