B. DESIGNATED AREA. The "Designated Area" means the following area:
If the Designated Area is not identified as of the date of this Franchise Agreement, we will determine the Designated Area when you sign the lease for the Authorized Location. The Designated Area will be an area of up to 3 driving miles from the Authorized Location as we determine in our sole judgment after a review of relevant factors (see Section 2.C).
The Designated Area may overlap with designated areas of other Aira Fitness Businesses. In the overlapping areas, each Aira Fitness Business is permitted to market and solicit for members (see Section 6.B). Once identified by us, the Designated Area is fixed for the initial term of the Franchise Agreement unless you relocate the Aira Fitness Business and upon renewal or transfer (see Sections 4.B, 5.G, and 12.C). The driving miles are fixed as of the date the Designated Area is determined by us based on our mapping program used at the time the Designated Area is determined (currently, ESRI). No Designated Area will be enlarged due to any future road construction or other alteration.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Designated Area for an Aira Fitness franchise can change under specific circumstances related to relocation, renewal, or transfer of the franchise.
The Designated Area is generally fixed for the initial term of the Franchise Agreement. However, if the franchisee relocates the Aira Fitness Business, Aira Fitness may modify the Designated Area to account for neighboring Aira Fitness Businesses and other factors. This modification is at Aira Fitness's sole discretion. Relocation can occur due to condemnation, destruction, lease expiration, or the franchisee's voluntary decision, each with specific conditions that must be met.
Upon renewal of the franchise agreement, Aira Fitness has the option to offer a new franchise agreement with materially different terms, including a modified Designated Area. This means that the franchisee's protected territory could be altered when they renew their agreement. Additionally, in the event of a transfer of the franchise, Aira Fitness has the unilateral right to change or modify the boundaries of the Designated Area under the new franchise agreement. The modification, if any, will be noted in the new franchise agreement issued with respect to the transfer.
These provisions highlight the importance of understanding the conditions under which the Designated Area can change, as they can significantly impact the franchisee's business operations and market exclusivity. Prospective franchisees should carefully consider these factors and discuss them with Aira Fitness to fully understand the potential implications for their investment.
