D. Ongoing and Supplemental Training/Convention
We may require your Store's managers to attend and complete satisfactorily various training courses and programs offered periodically during the Term by us or third parties at the times and locations we designate. However, we will not require attendance at such training courses and programs (including any annual meeting of 7 BREW Store franchisees, as described below) for more than five (5) days total, or for more than three (3) consecutive days, during each calendar year. You are responsible for their compensation and TRE during their attendance. If you request any training courses and programs to be provided locally, then subject to our training personnel's availability, you must pay our then-current training fee and our training personnel's TRE.
Besides attending and/or participating in the various training courses and programs described in the previous paragraph, at least one of your representatives (the Managing Owner or another designated representative we approve) may attend an annual meeting of all 7 BREW Store franchisees for up to four (4) days at a location we designate. You must pay all TRE to attend and any meeting fee we charge.
