By letter dated August 8, 2002, the Company notified ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇,
applicant for the US trademark STINGER in International Class 28 (Serial
No. 78/114688, filed March 13, 2002), that it considers his use of the
▇▇▇▇ to be infringing on the Company's previously registered ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇
(Reg. No. 2,374,557).
The Company is aware that a distributor with whom it has a prior business
relationship, ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇, is operating a website at
▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇. The Company is investigating the matter.
The Company is pursuing a trademark cancellation action in Korea against
two SNAKE EYES & Design marks (Registration Nos. 398601 and 365785).
