order EUIPO to pay the costs.

Pleas in law

Infringement of Article 51(1)(a) in connection with Article 15 of Regulation No 207/2009 insofar as the Board of Appeal wrongly held that the proprietor had proven genuine use of the contested CTM for the goods and services as registered, in particular ‘computer software’ and the related services in classes 41 and 42;
