Schedule A: Trademark In ormpose new standards during the term of the agreement where necessary. In short, the licensor must protect the value and reputation of its trademark. Where the specific circumstances of your situation review samples of the licensee's product, or it may schedule inspections of the facilities in which licensee manufactures the products to ensure that quality standards are met. The licensor may also ie must meet in order to continue use of the trademark, it is important for the licensee to pay close attention to the licensee's compliance with these standards. The licensor may wish to periodically ages that the licensee might suffer due to the failure of the licensor to live up to those representations. Quality Control In addition to setting forth the initial quality standards that the license right to grant the license in the first place. The terms of the sample agreement below state that the licensor will guarantee theses basic representations by indemnifying the licensee against any damWarranties The most basic representation that a licensor will generally be expected to make is that it has the ownership interest in the trademark that it claims to have, and that it therefore has thetomers, expenses incurred in advertising the product, etc. It is important in this provision to define clearly the method by which royalty payments will be calculated.

Or will certain expenses be deducted from gross sales before the percentage is taken, i.e., the amount of products returned by cushe licensed products.

For example, will the red by the licensee in the sale of licensed products. The simplest method of calculating the royalty as a percentage of total sales is to select a percentage of gross sales revenues from all sales of tng royalty payments. In some cases, a royalty is a flat amount paid based on the number of units sold by the licensee. In other cases, a royalty is computed as a percentage of the sales revenue receiv the amount of money paid for the license is based directly upon the actual amount of sales that the licensee realizes through the use of the license. There are a number of different ways of calculatill units sold in connection with the Trademark (for example, where the trademark is actually affixed to a specific product to be sold by the licensee), then a royalty system may be advisable, in which fee may be more practicable than attempting to determine a royalty payment that is dependent upon gross sales. Where it is feasible to determine the total number of units sold or the total value of asense as consideration for the granting of the license. For example, where it would be difficult to quantify the amount of goods or services sold in connection with the trademark, settling upon a flatnd of the license granted therein, is generally for a fixed period of years, all trademark rights will revert back to the licensor.
