Re Request to use Chrysler 300M

Dear Ms Hobbs

Thank you for your letter of November 82000 We are very pleased that DaimlerChrysler Corporation (DC) is willing to allow us to use its trademarks for purposes of our planned 300M owners club We want to be sure that we correctly understand the guidelines that you describe in your letter so that we can fully comply with any agreement we make We do have a few questions about those guidelines which we hope you can answer all set forth below

Your letter states that we may use CHRYSLER 300M in the assumed name of our club but not in the clubs incorporated or registered name We have tentatively planned to call our club Chrysler 300M Club International and we understand from your letter that this would be acceptable to DC as an assumed name but that we cannot formally incorporate using that name This raises two questions

1 Would it be acceptable to DC for us to incorporate under the name 300M Club International without using Chrysler in the incorporated name One of our prospective members checked the US Patent and Trademark web site and reports that DC trademark reg 2362025 appears to be for the 300M graphic and not just the word phrase 300M We also note that a PT Cruiser club (found at wwwptcruiserc1uborg) appears to have the formal name ofPT Cruiser Club LLC which suggests to us that perhaps 300M Club International would be acceptable to DC as our incorporated name

2 We plan to incorporate as a non-profit corporation in Colorado where one of our prospective members is an attorney He reports that if we incorporate under a name other than Chrysler 300M Club International we would be required to file a trade name affidavit with the Colorado Secretary of State to use that as an assumed name In other words if we incorporate as 300M Club International we would have to file a trade name affidavit to operate as Chrysler 300M Club International This essentially allows the state and the public to cross-reference the formal name and the assumed name Are we correct in assuming that filing such a trade name affidavit is acceptable to DC

We would also like permission to use the 300M graphic logo which is the subject of DCs trademark registration 2362025 in connection with our club probably as an element of a clubshyspecific graphic For example here is a sample of a possible membership card that we might use which incorporates DCs 300M graphic logo

3 Do we have DCs permission to use the 300M graphic logo subject to all of the conditions stated in your letter

Your letter states Always identify CHRYSLER 300M as a DaimlerChrysler Corporation trademark We would like clarification on the acceptable methods of doing so We would certainly be willing to include on our web site and on any club membership brochure a legend such as the following

Chrysler 300M and the 300M shield logo graphic are trademarks of DaimlerChrysler Corporation This Club is not affiliated with DaimlerChrysler Corporation

On other items however such a text legend either might not fit or would not be appropriate For example if we were to offer club members club logo travel mugs or keychain fobs or shirts or caps with the club name and logo embroidered or silk-screened on the item such a legend would either not fit or would render the item undesirable Similarly we would hope that this full legend would not be necessary on every letter sent by the club on club letterhead

4 Is it acceptable on promotional items and club letterhead to simply use TM in superscript adjacent to Chrysler or 300M or the 300M shield logo graphic to identify that element as being a trademark of DC

Thank you in advance for clarifying the answers to the above questions We believe that we otherwise understand the conditions that are in your November 8 letter and can fully comply with them This will be a non-commercial non-profit club and we plan to seek IRS tax exemption as a 501(c)(7) organization If you could send us a revised version of your November 8 letter that addresses the above five points we should be able to sign that and return it to you We look forward to a close and mutually beneficial relationship with DC and we appreciate your cooperation

Sincerely
