Amorino has sole discretion to take action to protect the Proprietary Marks and will indemnify and defend franchisees against claims arising from their authorized use of the marks. The Franchise Agreement does not provide for franchisees to receive compensation for tangible costs of changing any Proprietary Mark, and any improvements made to any Proprietary Mark or Proprietary Product belong to Amorino or CPG.
