SCHEDULE B
 GUIDE FOR PROPER
USE OF GORES TRADEMARKS
     1.
    
    Most importantly, a trademark is a proper adjective, NOT a noun or a verb. When used such as
in advertising, catalogues, promotions, brochures, hang tags, radio, etc., the trademark must
always be followed by a noun signifying its generic or common name. The trademark should never
be used alone when it appears in text.
 Right:
    
    TRADEMARK ® outerwearWrong:
    
    Outerwear made of TRADEMARK®
 2.
    
    A trademark should always be used in a manner that will distinguish it from the surrounding
text. Capitalize trademarks completely, use initial caps with quotations, bold face type, or
italics. The generic product name should not be capitalized.
 Right:
    
    TRADEMARK ® outerwearWrong:
    
    TRADEMARK ® OUTERWEAR
 3.
    
    Always follow the trademark with the appropriate trademark notice and footnote. The
appropriate trademark notice should appear at least once in each piece of printed matter,
preferably the first time the trademark appears. The footnote usually appears at the bottom of
the last page.
 Example:
    
    TRADEMARK® outerwearFootnote:
    
    TRADEMARK is a registered
trademark of W. L. Gore & Associates, Inc.
  Right:
    
    The popularity of TRADEMARK® outerwearWrong:
    
    TRADEMARKs popularity

SCHEDULE B (Continued)
 GUIDE FOR PROPER USE OF GORES TRADEMARKS
 5.
    
    Do not coin new words or terms for a trademark.
 Wrong:
    
    TRADEMARKED outerwear
 6.
    
    Trademarks identify and distinguish our products from those of other companies, therefore,
Gores trademarks must not be combined or intermingled with the trademarks of other companies.
 Right:
    
    TRADEMARK ® outerwear by (Companys Name)TRADEMARK ® outerwear, the 
collection from (Company Name)Wrong:
    
    (Company Name) TRADEMARK ® outerwear(Company Name)s TRADEMARK ® outerwear
 7.
    
    Trademarks should be followed by ® or  or no designation as appropriate for a given mark
and a given geographical market. Please contact your Gore representative to determine your
appropriate designation.
