Are royalties always required for internal use?
If the University’s name/marks are utilized on a product that is being resold, then royalties are due. If the product is being distributed at no cost and does not include any commercial sponsors or endorsements, then the royalty fee will be waived. Note: These are general guidelines and each case is reviewed for royalty exemption at the time the internal request is submitted to the Trademark Licensing office.
