EXACTLY. And Coke has a match for Pepsi...and Pepsi had a match for Coke! Now, Coke can't make it & sell it and call it Pepsy, nor can Pepsi do the same and call it Koke!

Thanks all for the comments ...good and bad...

new additions closer to burnt orange and less halloween orange in my initial post...

In regards to trademarked colors, all it takes is one digit +/- on the RGB scale or Pantone chart and you have visually the same color but not the trademarked one. Although, I would guess, even if you used the same exact color, unless you are in a competing business to the company that uses that color and using it in a similar way they probably aren't going to make a big deal of it.
