It is important for a prospective franchisee to understand the trademarks licensed to them, as they are central to the brand's identity. Best Brains requires franchisees to use these marks as the sole identification of their franchised business, while also identifying themselves as the independent owner. Franchisees must adhere to specific guidelines regarding the use of these marks, including proper display on signs, posters, and other materials, as well as providing necessary trademark and service mark registration notices.

Best Brains retains ownership of any sign face bearing the marks, even if the franchisee paid for its creation. Furthermore, franchisees must notify Best Brains of any potential infringement or challenges to the use of the marks. Best Brains has the sole discretion to take action regarding infringements and will control any related litigation. Best Brains will indemnify franchisees against damages they are held liable for in proceedings related to trademark infringement, provided the franchisee has complied with the franchise agreement and notified Best Brains in a timely manner.

If Best Brains decides to modify or discontinue the use of any mark, franchisees must comply with their instructions, and Best Brains will reimburse the franchisee's out-of-pocket costs for complying with this obligation. This ensures that the brand maintains control over its trademarks and can adapt to changing market conditions or legal requirements.
