Sec. 5. (1) Registration of a mark shall be effective for a term of 10 years from the date of registration, and may be renewed for successive terms of 10 years upon application filed within 6 months prior to the expiration of each term, on a form to be furnished by the administrator. A renewal fee of $25.00, payable to the state, shall accompany the application for renewal of the registration.

(2) The administrator shall notify registrants of marks of the necessity of renewal within the year next preceding the expiration of the 10 years from the date of registration by writing to the last known address of the registrants.

(3) Any registration in force on the date on which this act becomes effective shall expire 10 years from the date of the registration or of the last renewal thereof or 1 year after the effective date of this act, whichever is later, and may be renewed by filing an application with the administrator, on a form furnished by the administrator, and paying the renewal fee therefor within 6 months prior to the expiration of the registration.

(4) An application for renewal shall include a statement by the applicant setting forth the goods or services on or in connection with which the mark is still in use in this state, or if not still in use sufficient facts must be recited to show that nonuse is due to special circumstances which excuse such nonuse and is not due to any intention to abandon the mark.
