The rights granted to Buyer are personal to Buyer and may not be transferred, assigned or sublicensed, other than to Buyer's customer if such customer is a sub-distributor or reseller of the goods in which case the terms of such transfer, assignment or sublicense shall be the same as those set out in this provision. Buyer shall not utilize any marks confusingly similar to the Resideo Marks and Home Mark. Any use of the Resideo Marks and Home Mark by Buyer must be in strict conformity with Resideo's corporate policy regarding trademark usage, which shall be provided to Buyer upon request in writing. Any advertising copy and promotional materials, including Internet web pages or designs, containing or referring to the Resideo or Home Mark ("Copy") which Buyer intends to use and its proposed placement must be approved in advance and in writing (including email) by Resideo to ensure proper trademark usage by Buyer.
