PANCRASE
WORLD NEWS -
Unauthorized Use
of Pancrase Brand and
Trademarks
Sunday
Jan. 10, 2021
PANCRASE CO., LTD
(JPN)
https://www.pancrase.co.jp/rls/2021/0109.html
Pancrase Corporate
Headquarters in Japan Issues Statement Concerning
Name And Trademark Infringement
(translated from
Japanese)
About the use of
Pancrase trademark by a third party.
Recently, it has been confirmed that a third
party illegally uses the Pancrase trademark. We
would like to report this and ask for your
attention.
On May 18, 2012, Smash Co., Ltd. (hereinafter
referred to as the "Company") made a business
transfer agreement with Pancrase Co., Ltd. as the
transferor and the Company as the transferee
(hereinafter referred to as the "Business Transfer
Agreement"). .) Has been concluded, and the business
related to the operation of the professional martial
arts "Pancrase" operated by Pancrase Co., Ltd.
(hereinafter referred to as "this business") has
been transferred, and since then, this business has
been operated. Pancrase Co., Ltd. has taken over
this business from World Pancrase Create Co., Ltd.
based on the business transfer agreement
(hereinafter referred to as the "original business
transfer agreement"). You have reassigned your
business. In addition, based on this business
transfer agreement, the Company has also transferred
all trademark rights including the logo related to
Pancrase, but in the original business transfer
agreement, the trademark rights to be transferred
are not limited to Japan. It is clearly stated that
the trademark right has been acquired overseas,
including the United States. Therefore, the Company
has acquired the trademark rights of Pancrase in
Japan and overseas owned by World Pancrase Create
Co., Ltd. effectively and properly through Pancrase
Co., Ltd.
Recently, a US company (hereinafter referred
to as the "US Company") has received a trademark
registration in the United States, mainly in the
United States, using the Pancrase Hybrid Wrestling
and other Pancrase names and the Pancrase logo. I
gave a false explanation that I was, and I got
information that I was touting myself as if I was a
legitimate right holder of the Pancrase brand,
creating and distributing documentary films and
planning various events. .. However, the US Company
applied for trademark registration when the
trademark registration related to Pancrase had
temporarily expired due to procedural reasons, and
the US Company applied for Pancrase in the United
States before the Company. There is no record of use
of related trademarks, and trademark rights in the
United States are not recognized in preference to
the Company. In addition, although it is stated on
Facebook etc. that the US company has registered the
logo with the US Patent and Trademark Office, it is
only at the stage of application and examination,
which is not the case.
We have determined that the U.S. Company has
seriously infringed our rights and are preparing to
take legal action against the company and its
affiliates, as well as our Pancrase in the United
States. We are in the process of registering a brand
trademark in our name.
Please note that if you are not aware of the
above circumstances and are involved in the US
company by mistaking it as the legitimate right
holder of the Pancrase brand, you may inconvenience
yourself.
Regarding unauthorized use of Pancrase brand
Smash Co. Ltd. of Japan (“Smash”), operator
of Pancrase, would like to share with you certain
information we have obtained with regard to the
unauthorized use of our Pancrase brand by a third
party.
We have obtained information that a certain
US company (“the Company”) is preparing a project in
which production and distribution of Pancrase
documentary films and hosting of events under the
name of Pancrase are under way mainly in the US. The
Company has been using Pancrase trademark “Pancrase
Hybrid Wrestling” and Pancrase logo and making
itself out as the rightful owner of the Pancrase
brand with the logo registered with the authorities.
However, the Company just made a trademark
application while the trademark registration,
temporarily expired due to procedural reasons The
Company has no record of use of the Pancrase
trademark preceding our use. We believe that the
Company's trademark registration application does
not prevail over ours.The Company's statement in its
Facebook or others that the Pancrase logo is
registered with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office in its name is anything but the
case; the trademark application is still under
evaluation.
Smash entered into a certain business
transfer agreement dated May 18, 2012 with Pancrase
KK (the “Business Transfer Agreement”) by which the
“Pancrase business” was transferred from Pancrase KK
to Smash, and Smash has since been operating the
Pancrase business. Prior To that, Pancrase KK had
obtained the Pancrase business from World Pancrase
Create under a certain business transfer agreement
(the “Initial Business Transfer Agreement”). Smash
has obtained all of the trademark rights relating to
the Pancrase business under the Business Transfer
Agreement. Under the Initial Transfer Business
Agreement, the transferred trademarks were expressly
referred to as those obtained in foreign countries
including the US as well as in Japan and,
hence,Smash has duly and effectively obtained all of
the Pancrase trademarks which World Pancrase Created
held in Japan and those foreign countries via
Pancrase KK.
We are in the process of applying for
trademark registration in Smash's name in the US.
Smash has determined that significant infringement
of its rights has been committed by the Company and
is preparing to institute legal proceedings against
the Company and its related parties.
Let me take the liberty of advising that
caution should be taken against any risks which may
arise from being unknowingly involved in the
Company's project based on the misunderstanding that
it is the rightful owner of the Pancrase brand.
