If you link to a Fannie Mae Web Site, Fannie Mae grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, royalty-free license to use the Fannie Mae service mark (the "Licensed Mark") solely for the purpose of serving as a link from your web site or other electronic publication to the Fannie Mae Web Site. Except for the limited license to use the Licensed Mark granted in this paragraph, you may not use any of Fannie Mae's trademarks or service marks (the "Marks") for any reason without Fannie Mae's prior written permission.

You acknowledge that all rights to the Marks, the content appearing on the Web Sites and the look and feel of the Web Sites belong to Fannie Mae and/or its third party licensors. You will not at any time directly or indirectly contest or infringe these rights.

Fannie Mae may at any time, in its sole discretion, immediately terminate your license to use the Licensed Mark and your right to link to the Fannie Mae Web Sites, with or without cause. If Fannie Mae exercises this right, you will immediately remove all links to the Fannie Mae Web Sites and cease using the Licensed Mark.
