§482-26 Assignment; change of name. (a) The registration of a mark shall be assignable with the goodwill of the business in which the mark is used, or with that part of the goodwill of the business connected with the use of and symbolized by the mark.

Upon recording of the assignment, the director shall issue a new certificate for the remainder of the term of the registration or of the last renewal thereof in the name of the new assignee. An assignment of a registration of a mark under this section shall be void against a subsequent purchaser for valuable consideration without notice, unless the assignment is recorded with the director within three months after the date thereof or prior to the subsequent purchase.
(b) Any registrant may change the name of the person to whom the mark is issued by filing an application to change the name of the registrant with the director and paying the appropriate fee. The director shall issue a new certificate of registration in the name of the registrant. [L 2001, c 15, pt of §1]
