Focus CFO grants Franchisees the non-exclusive right to provide CFO Services under the name "Focus CFO" and use the following marks:

You may also use any other current or future trade name, trademark, service mark or logo ("Marks") that we designate for your use, including the logo on the front of this Disclosure Document, to identify yourself as a Franchisee and in connection with providing the Focus CFO services. The Marks are either owned by Focus CFO or The CFO Company, LLC, a subsidiary of Focus CFO Holdings, LLC and licensed to be used by Focus CFO and our Franchisees. The identified trademark was registered on the United States Patent and Trademark Office ("USPTO") principal register on August 31, 2012 as Number 85/718,505. We have filed the necessary affidavits and renewal applications for the trademarks as required by the USPTO.

We know of no effective material determinations of the USPTO, Trademark Trial and Appeal Board, the trademark administrator or any state trademark administrator or any court, state or federal, involving or regarding our use of the Marks. We know of no pending infringement opposition or cancellation proceeding. We know of no pending material federal or state court litigation, regarding our use or ownership of the Marks. There are no agreements currently in effect that significantly limit our rights to use or license the use of the Marks in any manner material to the franchise. We know of no infringing or prior superior uses that could materially affect the use of the Marks in any state.

You must follow our rules when you use these Marks. You cannot use a name or mark as part of a corporate name or with modifying words, designs or symbols except for those which Focus CFO licenses to you. You may not use Focus CFO's registered name in connection with the sale of unauthorized products or services or in a manner not authorized in writing by Focus CFO.
