(2)All the goods and/or services listed in the U.S. registration that are identified for replacement are covered by the registered extension of protection.

If the request to note replacement is filed in reference to a pending request for extension of protection, the request will not be processed until the extension of protection registers.

(1)The serial number or registration number of the extension of protection;
(2)The registration number of the replaced U.S. registration;
(3)The goods and/or services for which replacement is requested; and
(4)The fee required by § 7.6.
(d)If the request to note replacement is denied, the Office will notify the holder of the reason(s) for refusal. \[90 FR 23290, June 2, 2025\]
