association, or other legal entity has the right to use the mark in commerce, either in

reasonable under the circumstances, the allegations and other factual contentions
made above have evidentiary support.

I declare under penalty of perjury under the laws of the United States of America that all the

that willful false statements and the like may jeopardize the validity of the application or
