Practice question
An owner invokes Section 147.2 for a Philippine-registered well-known mark used on dissimilar services. The parties stipulate that the challenged use indicates no connection with the owner and is not likely to damage its interests. Does well-known status alone establish that extension?
- Yes, it eliminates every proviso
- No; the connection and likely-damage requirements remain necessary
- Yes, if the owner dislikes the service
- Yes, all dissimilar services are automatically reserved
- No, because well-known marks are never protected
