You must provide us with a copy of the Lease and we have fifteen (15) days to accept or reject the site.
You must deliver to us a fully executed copy of the approved Lease as amended by the Lease Addendum within ten (10) days after its execution.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Aira Fitness has a 15-day period to either accept or reject a proposed site for the Aira Fitness Business. This timeframe begins once the franchisee provides Aira Fitness with a copy of the lease. If Aira Fitness does not respond within the 15-day period, the site is considered disapproved.
This approval process is part of Aira Fitness's site selection criteria, ensuring that the location meets their minimum standards. However, Aira Fitness's approval of a site or lease does not guarantee the franchisee will achieve a specific sales volume or level of profitability. The FDD clarifies that Aira Fitness's approval only indicates that the site meets their minimum requirements and that the lease contains the terms they require.
Furthermore, the franchisee is responsible for providing a fully executed copy of the approved lease, along with any lease addendum, within 10 days after its execution. This ensures that Aira Fitness has the final, agreed-upon lease terms on record. This process protects Aira Fitness by ensuring franchisees secure locations that align with the brand's standards and operational needs, while also placing the responsibility on the franchisee to ensure the site's suitability and compliance with all applicable laws.
