DEVELOPMENT RIGHTS RIDER TO BREW CULTURE FRANCHISE, LLC FRANCHISE AGREEMENT
- Background. This Development Rights Rider (the "Rider") is made between BREW CULTURE FRANCHISE, LLC ("we," "us," or "our") and _____________________ ("you" or "your"). This Rider is attached to, and intended to be a part of, the Franchise Agreement that we and you are signing concurrently with signing this Rider (the "First Franchise Agreement") for your construction, development, and operation of your first traditional 7 BREW Store (defined below) at a location to be specified within the Territory (defined below). We and you are signing this Rider because you want the right to construct, develop, and operate additional traditional 7 BREW Stores within the Territory (besides the Store covered by the First Franchise Agreement) over a certain time period, and we are willing to grant you those development rights if you comply with this Rider.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to 7 Brew's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchise agreement includes a Development Rights Rider. This rider is made between Brew Culture Franchise, LLC, and the franchisee. The purpose of the Rider is to grant the franchisee the right to construct, develop, and operate additional traditional 7 Brew Stores within a specific territory over a defined period. The rider is attached to, and part of, the Franchise Agreement that is signed concurrently with the Rider for the construction, development, and operation of the first traditional 7 Brew Store.
The Development Rights Rider grants the franchisee the exclusive right to construct, develop, and operate a specified number of traditional 7 Brew Stores within a two-mile radius of coordinate locations detailed in Exhibit B. This right is subject to compliance with the development schedule outlined in Exhibit A. The franchisee's location exclusivity for Traditional 7 Brew Stores is the only restriction on the franchisor's activities within the Territory during the Rider's term. The franchisor and its affiliates retain the right to engage in any other activities, including operating Non-Traditional 7 Brew Stores, within the Territory.
The franchisee must pay a Development Fee for these rights, which is not refundable under any circumstances, even if the franchisee fails to comply with the development schedule and the Rider is terminated. The Rider's term begins on the date it is signed and ends when the final Traditional 7 Brew Store is opened or when the Rider is terminated, but no later than a specified date. The franchisor can terminate the Rider if the franchisee fails to meet development obligations or other requirements, or if the First Franchise Agreement is terminated.
