1Opinion of the Court

LINN, Circuit Judge.

St. Helena Hospital (“St. Helena”) appeals from the decision of the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board (“the Board”) in In re St. Helena Hosp., Serial No. 85/416,343, 2013 WL 5407267 (T.T.A.B., June 25, 2013). The Board affirmed the examiner’s rejection of St. Helena’s application to register “TAKETEN,” under 15 U.S.C. § 1052(d) (2012), as likely to cause confusion with the mark “TAKE 10!” shown in United States Registration No. 2,577,657 (“the '657 Registration”). Because the Board erred in its determination of likelihood of confusion, we reverse and remand.
