What does this legal sentence mean?

Hi,

Can anyone help to explain the meaning of this sentence?

THE LICENSEE assumes responsibility, as of today, for any infraction to rights of third parties in which it may incur for the use of THE TRADEMARKS, binding itself to maintain in force THE TRADEMARKS.

My own understanding is:

If you infract the rights of third parties, you should assume responsibility, but at the same time you must protect the trademarks from being hurt.

Is that right? How do you understand it?

Thanks

Here's how I understand this sentence. (you may have a native speaker verify it ) If you violate rights of third parties through the use of the trademarks (*), you should assume responsibilty but, at the same time, still keep the trademarks (*). (*)Given the trademarks, the customer may have high expectations and could possibly be disappointed by the poor quality of the products bought.
