Compare this cost (trademark and arbitration) against buying the com version of the name you want.

If the name costs less that $9,000 buy that domain registration or look for a name that you can register in dot com and pay to trademark that name now so it can't be registered in any new gTLD.

Nice accelerated tax deduction for 2014 ...
just so no one gets confused, you can't trademark something and then think that gives you rights to a domain name registered before the trademark. if your trademark comes before the domain, you may have some chance but certainly not after the domain registration.
