• in response to determining that the sample does not comply with the terms and conditions,
• determining if previous samples from the requestor were rejected as not complying with the terms and conditions and if so, determining a total number of samples rejected,
• comparing the number to a number limit,
• in response to determining that the number exceeds the number limit, denying the requestor access to the trademark, and
