Exhibit A.

Sale and Promotion of Products and Services in Connection With the B Logo

13. Over the years, Bridgestone has sold billions of dollars of tires and other products

branded with its B Logo in the U.S.

14. Bridgestone’s B Logo-branded tires have been sold through approximately 2,200

company-owned stores and 8,000 authorized and independent dealers and retailers nationwide—

ranging from major retailers such as Walmart, Costco, and Sears to independent tire dealers.

15. Bridgestone’s B Logo-branded tires have been featured as original equipment

on some of the world’s top-selling cars and trucks, including those made by BMW, Toyota,

Nissan, General Motors, Chrysler, Daimler (Mercedes-Benz), Volkswagen, Mazda, Subaru,

and others.

16. Bridgestone spends tens of millions of dollars annually advertising, marketing,

and promoting the B Logo (with its BRIDGESTONE and other marks) and products through

virtually every type of digital, broadcast, and print media, including print advertisements (e.g.,

magazines and newspapers), television and radio commercials, Internet advertising, social media,

billboards, brochures, catalogs, point-of-sale displays, sponsorships, trade shows, branded

products, and promotional items.

17. In addition, the B Logo is promoted and displayed in a variety of ways through

Bridgestone’s company-owned stores and authorized and independent dealers and retailers who

have Bridgestone signage displayed in and outside their stores.

18. For decades, the B Logo has been promoted through nationally-distributed

general-interest magazines such as Fortune, People, Time, Sports Illustrated, Rolling Stone, Golf

Digest, Men’s Fitness, Men’s Health, Jet, and Popular Mechanics, as well as major national

newspapers such as the Wall Street Journal and USA Today. Additionally, Bridgestone’s

corporate-owned stores and independent tire retailers regularly run advertisements in local

newspapers throughout the country featuring and promoting the B Logo.

19. The B Logo has been regularly featured in national and local television, cable,

and radio advertisements. Bridgestone’s television commercials have appeared on major

network channels, including NBC, ABC, CBS, and FOX channels. It has also aired on cable-

television networks such as ESPN, MTV, HGTV, TNN, TNT, VH1, FX, Comedy Central,

Discovery Channel, The History Channel, and Speed TV. For example, in 2012 Bridgestone

launched its successful “Time to Perform” television advertising campaign, comprised of a series

of commercials featuring high-profile professional athletes (such as NFL players Troy Aikman,

Deion Sanders, Matthew Stafford, and Adam Vinetari; NBA players Tim Duncan and Steve

Nash; NHL Player Drew Doughty; women’s soccer player Alex Morgan; pro bowler Kelly

Kulick; and pro golfers Fred Couples, Matt Kuchar, and Hudson Swafford) and the B Logo

(representative screenshots below).

20. For a number of years, starting in 2008, commercials featuring the B Logo mark

aired during the Super Bowl and reached over 100 million viewers each year. The 2008 Super

Bowl was the second most watched television program in U.S. history when it aired. The 2011

Super Bowl broadcast reached over 110 million viewers, breaking the then-existing record for

the most-watched program in U.S. television history. Subsequent Super Bowls have since

broken this record, with the 2015 Super Bowl broadcast reaching over 114 million viewers.

21. The B Logo has further been promoted through Bridgestone’s sponsorship of a

number of high-profile sports leagues, associations, and events. For example, BRIDGESTONE

tires (including those branded with the B Logo) are the Official Tire of the National Football

League (NFL), the National Hockey League (NHL), National Hockey League Players

Association (NHLPA), and the Professional Golfers Association (PGA) Tour. Bridgestone was

the title sponsor of the Super Bowl XLII, XLIII, and XLIV “Bridgestone Super Bowl Halftime

Show” and currently sponsors the NHL Winter Classic (depicted below) and the World Golf

Championships–Bridgestone Invitational played at the Firestone Country Club in Akron, Ohio.

22. Moreover, Bridgestone has signed on to be 1 of 12 primary Olympics

partners/sponsors (along with Coca-Cola, McDonalds, Visa, Samsung, and others) through 2024.

BRIDGESTONE tires (including those branded with the B Logo) are the Official Tire of the

Olympic Games. Bridgestone is also a Founding Partner of the Olympic Channel (logo shown

below), supporting this groundbreaking digital platform in its mission to celebrate the Olympic

Movement and the world’s greatest athletes every day of the year. In the U.S., Bridgestone was

a proud partner of U.S. Figure Skating through 2018 and is a proud partner of the United States

Olympic Committee and U.S. Paralympics through 2024.

23. The B Logo has been promoted through various widely followed automotive

racing events, including Formula 1 racing for many years. During that time, Formula 1 race cars

were equipped with BRIDGESTONE tires featuring the B Logo in prominent white lettering on

the tire sidewall, as shown below. In addition to Formula 1, the B Logo has been promoted

through sponsorship of the Champ Car World Series since 1996 and Formula D Drift Series

racing. The B Logo has appeared prominently on signage and other materials throughout these

events.

24. In 2010, Nashville’s sports and entertainment venue (depicted below) was

renamed BRIDGESTONE ARENA. The BRIDGESTONE ARENA venue is home to the

Predators―Nashville’s NHL hockey team. The venue has received several awards, including

the ACM (Academy of Country Music) Venue of the Year, the IEBD (International

Entertainment Buyers Association) Venue of the Year, Facilities Magazine Prime Site, and

Pollstar Venue of the Year. It has also hosted high-profile events, such as the third round of the

2012 NCAA Men’s Basketball Tournament, 2011 Stanley Cup Western Conference

Quarterfinals and Semifinals, and 45th and 51st Annual Country Music Awards. In 2017,

Bridgestone’s naming rights in the BRIDGESTONE ARENA were extended to 2025. The B

Logo is prominently displayed on and in the arena:

25. The B Logo has also been promoted online through various company websites,

popular social-networking websites (including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and YouTube), and

advertising placed on third-party websites, e.g.:

Page 26: Notice of Opposition - ttabvue.uspto.govttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/ttabvue-91255580-OPP-1.pdf · Trademark Trial and Appeal Board Electronic Filing System. ESTTA Tracking number: ESTTA1052276

13

26. In addition to its own substantial advertising and promotional activities,

Bridgestone, the B Logo, Bridgestone’s products, and Bridgestone’s sponsored events receive a

significant amount of unsolicited media coverage, including on nationally broadcast television

programs and in widely circulated publications.

27. As a result of the distinctive nature and inherent strength of the B Logo;

widespread use, advertising, publicity, and promotion; and billions of dollars of sales, the B

Logo has been well-known and famous since long before Applicant’s filing date and first use of

its mark.

Applicant and Its Mark

28. Applicant Wenzhou Kebao Sanitary Ware Co., Ltd. is a Chinese limited liability

company with an address at No.650, Haigong Ave., Haicheng Street, Longwan District,

Wenzhou CHINA 325024.

14

29. On June 27, 2019, Applicant filed a use-based application for the mark

, alleging a first-use/use-in-commerce date of June 27, 2019 (later

changed to June 17, 2019), for “Baskets for household purposes; Clothing stretchers; Dustbins;

Paper plates; Soap boxes; Soap holders; Toilet brushes; Toilet paper dispensers; Toilet paper

holders; Towel rails and rings; Watering cans; Boxes for dispensing paper towels for household

use; Nozzles for watering hose; Sprinklers for watering flowers and plants; Wall soap dishes;

Waste paper baskets.” The application was assigned Application Serial No. 88491141.

Count One

Likelihood of Confusion, 15 U.S.C. § 1052(d)

30. Bridgestone repeats and re-alleges each and every allegation set forth in each of

the preceding paragraphs.

31. Bridgestone’s use and registration of its B Logo long predate the June 27, 2019,

filing date and alleged first-use/use-in-commerce dates of Applicant’s Application Serial

88491141.

32. Applicant’s mark so resembles Bridgestone’s prior used

and registered B Logo mark, and the goods covered by Bridgestone’s used/registered B Logo

mark and Applicant’s mark are overlapping and similar, such that a

potential consumer would be likely to be confused, mistaken, or deceived as to the source of

the parties’ respective goods under Section 2(d) of the Lanham Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C.

§ 1052(d).

15

Count Two

Dilution, 15 U.S.C. § 1125(c)

33. Bridgestone repeats and re-alleges each and every allegation set forth in each of

the preceding paragraphs.

34. Through extensive use and promotion, Bridgestone’s distinctive B Logo has

become famous, as defined under Section 43(c)(1) of the Lanham Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C.

§ 1125(c)(1).

35. The B Logo became famous well before the June 27, 2019 filing date and alleged

first-use/use-in-commerce dates in Application Serial 88491141.

36. Applicant’s mark is likely to dilute the distinctive

quality of the B Logo mark under Section 43(c) of the Lanham Act, as amended, 15 U.S.C.

§ 1125(c).

Count Three

Fraud in the Application

37. Bridgestone repeats and realleges each and every allegation set forth in the

preceding paragraphs.

38. On June 27, 2019, Applicant submitted the following specimen and statements

with its Application No. 88491141:

Page 29: Notice of Opposition - ttabvue.uspto.govttabvue.uspto.gov/ttabvue/ttabvue-91255580-OPP-1.pdf · Trademark Trial and Appeal Board Electronic Filing System. ESTTA Tracking number: ESTTA1052276

16

The applicant is using the mark in commerce on or in connection with the

identified goods/services.

In International Class 021, the mark was first used by the applicant or the

applicant’s related company or licensee predecessor in interest at least as

early as 06/17/2018, and first used in commerce at least as early as

09/20/2018, and is now in use in such commerce.

39. On September 19, 2019, the PTO issued an Office Action refusing registration of

Application Serial No. 88491141 “because the specimen appears to consist of a digitally altered

image or a mock-up of the mark on the goods or their packaging and does not show the applied-

for mark in actual use in commerce,” noting that “applicant digitally placed its mark over a

picture of a towel rail. The unusual placement of the mark on the face of the decorative

bathroom fixture, as well as the change in resolution and distortions around the mark, are clear

mark shown in the Application No. 88491141 with the intent to procure a registration to which

Applicant was not entitled.

43. Applicant’s false material statements were made knowingly.

44. The PTO relied on such knowingly false statements of material fact in approving

the Application No. 88491141 for publication.

45. Based on the conduct described above, Applicant committed fraud on the PTO.

Accordingly, Application Serial No. 88491141 should be refused registration.

WHEREFORE, Bridgestone believes that it is being and will continue to be damaged by

the registration of the mark shown in Application Serial No. 88491141
