Continuing Ownership of Existing Trademarks Clause Samples

The Continuing Ownership of Existing Trademarks clause establishes that each party retains ownership of any trademarks they held prior to entering into the agreement. In practice, this means that any logos, brand names, or other trademarked materials already registered or used by a party remain their exclusive property, regardless of any collaboration or joint activities under the contract. This clause ensures that pre-existing intellectual property rights are preserved and not inadvertently transferred or shared, thereby preventing disputes over trademark ownership during or after the business relationship.
