What is required to validly amend the terms of the landlord addendum for an Aira Fitness franchise?

According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, any changes to the landlord addendum must be documented in writing. For an amendment or variation of the terms to be considered valid, all parties involved, including the landlord, tenant (franchisee), and Aira Fitness, must sign the written agreement. Additionally, Aira Fitness must provide its written consent to the changes.

This requirement ensures that Aira Fitness maintains control over the terms of the lease agreement, which is crucial for protecting its brand and ensuring consistency across all franchise locations. By requiring written consent, Aira Fitness can review and approve any proposed changes to ensure they align with the company's standards and legal requirements.

For a prospective Aira Fitness franchisee, this means that any negotiation with the landlord regarding the lease terms must ultimately be approved by Aira Fitness. This may add an extra layer to the negotiation process, but it also provides the franchisee with the assurance that the lease terms are acceptable to the franchisor and are in line with the overall franchise agreement. Franchisees should factor in the time it may take to obtain Aira Fitness's written consent when negotiating lease terms with a landlord.
