infringement, or otherwise unauthorized use of the Trademark, or confusingly

costs paid by the parties. For purposes of clarification, this agreement of
Licensee to pay certain costs and expenses relates only to actions necessary
as a result of the activities contemplated under the Sourcing Agreement and
not to Licensor's general policing and enforcement of its trademark rights.

the Territory in order to safeguard Licensor's rights to the Trademark.
