"If a licensor does not exercise sufficient control over the quality of
the goods and services offered by the licensee, the trademark may, in
some countries (for example, the United Kingdom), become vulnerable to
attack by the licensee or a third party. In other countries, such as the
United States, the trademark may be deemed abandoned."
