What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 FDD, 1 800 Packouts uses a Rider to the Franchise Agreement to address specific legal considerations in certain states. These Riders modify the standard franchise agreement to comply with state franchise laws.
Specifically, if a 1 800 Packouts franchisee is a resident of Maryland, operates their franchised business in Maryland, or any of the offering or sales activity relating to the Franchise Agreement occurred in Maryland, a Rider is signed. This Rider includes stipulations that any general release signed as a condition to transfer or renewal will not apply to claims arising under the Maryland Franchise Registration and Disclosure Law. It also specifies that while the standard agreement dictates governing law and jurisdiction, a franchisee may bring action in Maryland for claims arising under the Maryland Franchise Registration and Disclosure Law, and Maryland law will apply to these claims.
Similar Riders are used in other states like North Dakota, New York, Washington, Minnesota, and Rhode Island, each addressing specific state laws. For example, the North Dakota Rider addresses releases and covenants not to compete, while the New York Rider concerns rights and causes of action under New York's General Business Law. The Washington Rider acknowledges the Washington Franchise Investment Protection Act, and the Minnesota Rider addresses releases, renewal, and termination in accordance with Minnesota law. The Rhode Island Rider addresses consent to jurisdiction and governing law.
