The logo may never be used independent of the term "MEMBER," as set forth on the Attachment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the logos may not be used in any manner that, in the sole discretion of The Associations: discredits The Associations or tarnishes its reputation and goodwill; is false or misleading; violates the rights of others; violates any law, regulation or other public policy; or mischaracterizes the relationship between The Associations and the user, including but not limited to any use of the logos that might be reasonably construed as an endorsement, approval, sponsorship, or certification by The Associations of the user, the user's business or organization, or the user's products or services, or that might be reasonably construed as support or encouragement to purchase or utilize the user's products or services.
5. Use of the logos shall create no rights for users in or to the logos or their use beyond the terms and conditions of this limited and revocable license. The logos shall remain at all times the sole and exclusive intellectual property of The Associations. The Associations shall have the right, from time to time, to request samples of use of the logos from which it may determine compliance with these terms and conditions. Without further notice, The Associations reserve the right to prohibit use of the logos if it determines, in its sole discretion, that a user's logo usage is not in strict accordance with the terms and conditions of this license, otherwise could discredit The Associations or tarnish its reputation and goodwill, or the user is not a member of The Associations in good standing.
