The disclaimer of exclusive rights to descriptive words affects registrability. This means that Sun Power is acknowledging that they cannot claim exclusive rights to certain words that are included in their trademark, which may be descriptive and commonly used in the industry. By making this disclaimer, it strengthens their application by showing that they are aware of the limitations of their mark and are not seeking to monopolize the use of common terms.
