What section of the Bumble Roofing Franchise Agreement details the franchisee's obligations regarding trademarks and proprietary information?

According to Bumble Roofing's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Item 9 outlines the franchisee's obligations under the franchise agreement. Specifically, obligations related to trademarks and proprietary information are detailed in Section 10 of the Franchise Agreement.

This means that as a Bumble Roofing franchisee, you must refer to Section 10 of the Franchise Agreement to understand your responsibilities regarding the proper use and protection of Bumble Roofing's trademarks, as well as the handling of any proprietary or confidential information. This section likely covers what you can and cannot do with the Bumble Roofing brand, logos, and other intellectual property. It will also likely cover the handling of sensitive business information, customer lists, and trade secrets.

Understanding these obligations is crucial because misuse or unauthorized disclosure of trademarks or proprietary information could lead to legal consequences, damage the Bumble Roofing brand, and potentially result in termination of the franchise agreement. Franchisees should carefully review Section 10 and seek clarification from Bumble Roofing if any aspects are unclear. Additionally, Item 13 and Item 14 of the disclosure document provide further information regarding trademarks and proprietary information.
