(5) Specimen means a sample of use of the trademark, on or in a medium
acceptable to the secretary of state. A specimen for a trademark for goods must
show the trademark as used on or in connection with the goods in commerce in this
state, such as a label, tag, or container for the goods; a display associated with the

for services must show the trademark as used in connection with the sale or
advertising of the services in commerce in this state.

(6) Standard character trademark means a trademark:

(a) In which the trademark is expressed only in English letters, roman or
arabic numerals, or punctuation marks as may be acceptable to the secretary of
state; and

(b) In which no stylization of lettering or numbers is claimed.

(7) Trademark means a word, name, symbol, device, or any combination
thereof, including packaging, configuration of goods, or other trade dress, used by
a person to identify and distinguish the person's goods or services from those
manufactured, sold, or rendered by others and to indicate the source of the goods
or services, even if that source is unknown.

(8) Transfer includes an assignment and a transfer by operation of law, but
does not include a security interest or a license.

(9) Use in commerce means a bona fide use of a trademark in the ordinary
course of trade, and not made merely to reserve a right in a trademark.
