City Wide's trademarks are important assets for the franchise system. As a franchisee, you are authorized to use these marks, as well as any other marks that City Wide develops and designates in the future, as long as you adhere to City Wide's standards and specifications. City Wide also states that it has made all required renewal and affidavit filings for these registrations.
City Wide retains significant control over its trademarks. Franchisees must promptly notify City Wide of any claims or actions related to the marks. City Wide has the sole right to defend any action regarding the marks. Franchisees are also prohibited from using the marks as part of any corporate or trade name, or in any modified form without authorization. All goodwill established through the use of the marks inures to the benefit of City Wide and its licensor. This underscores the importance of adhering to City Wide's standards when using the trademarks to protect the brand's integrity and value.
Prospective franchisees should be aware that City Wide can modify the system, including adopting new trademarks, and franchisees must accept and use these changes as if they were part of the original Franchise Agreement. While City Wide states it would attempt to replace the "CITY WIDE" mark at no additional cost to the franchisee (except for stationery and other supplies) if it lost the right to license the mark, franchisees should confirm what specific protections and support City Wide provides regarding trademark-related issues.
