1. We convey this cease and desist demand letter in the name of, and on behalf of Guccio Gucci S.p.A., headquartered at Via Tornabuoni 73/r, 50123 Florence, Italy and Gucci Group N.V. headquartered at Rembrandt Tower, Amstelplein 1 NL-1096 Amsterdam (Netherlands). 2. As you are certainly aware, Guccio Gucci S.p.A. and Gucci Group N.V. are the owners of the trademark GUCCI since 1971, with registrations in Italy and in many other countries. For your convenience we cite, inter alia, the Italian Registration Nos. 252243 (figurative) of June 23, 1971 in all classes and 302066 (word) of March 30, 1977 in classes 3, 14, 18 and 25; the Community Trademark registration Nos. 121905 (figurative) of August 28, 1998 in all classes; 121947 (figurative) of November 24, 1998 in all classes; and 4107546 (figurative) of December 21, 2005 in all classes; the International Registration Nos. 429833 (figurative) of March 30, 1977 in classes 3, 14, 18 and 25; 457952 (figurative) of December 16, 1980 in all classes and 591578 (figurative) of October 8, 1998 in classes 19, 23 and 24. 3. Please be advised that Guccio Gucci S.p.A. and Gucci Group N.V. have also secured national registrations in many other jurisdictions including Armenia, Australia, China, Canada, Cyprus, Denmark, France, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Ireland, Japan, Malaysia, Paraguay, United Kingdom, USA, and the trademark GUCCI is certainly well-known worldwide. 4. Our clients have recently become aware that you have registered the domain name <gucci- shoes.biz> without any prima facie rights or legitimate interests on said distinctive sign. 5. The registration and use of a domain name confusingly similar to the trademark GUCCI constitutes a clear infringement of our clients’ rights due to the obvious risk of confusion, mistake, and deception caused by the subject domain name. Please also be advised that Courts in the majority of jurisdictions, including yours, as well as Arbitration Panels, consistently maintain that registering a third party’s trademark as a domain name (widely referred to as “domain name grabbing” or “abusive registration of a domain name”) is a violation of an entity’s intellectual property rights. 6. Furthermore, the domain name herein is redirected to a web site where prima facie counterfeit GUCCI products are offered for sale and our clients’ trademarks are misappropriated. Such use of the domain name is therefore infringing our clients’ trademarks as Internet users are intentionally attracted, for commercial gain, to the above-mentioned web site by creating a likelihood of confusion with our clients’ trademarks as to the source, sponsorship, affiliation, or endorsement of the web site and of the products promoted thereon. 7. In light of the foregoing, we hereby demand that you immediately: a) Cease any and all use of the domain name <>; b) confirm, in writing to our attention, your availability to immediately transfer the above- referenced domain name, free of any charge, to our clients; c) undertake not to register and/or to use the designation GUCCI as a trademark, domain name, trade name or, more generally, as a distinctive sign; d) refrain from merely cancelling the domain name since doing so shall be considered by our client as tantamount to your direct assignment of it to an illegitimate third party. 8. We are confident that you will timely comply with the demands of Guccio Gucci S.p.A and Gucci Group N.V. set forth herein. However, your failure to satisfy each of the conditions set forth supra in Paragraph 7, and/or without your express acknowledgment of the merits of our clients’ assertions, within, and not later than 7 days from receipt of this letter, will force our clients to seek vindication of their intellectual property rights without any further notice to you by any means and in any venue deemed appropriate, also with the assistance of our associated law firm in your jurisdiction. We note that this letter is written without prejudice to, or waiver of, Guccio Gucci S.p.A. and Gucci Group N.V. rights and remedies worldwide, all of which are hereby expressly reserved.
