Answer from 2025 FDD Document

lord agrees to allow Tenant to remodel, equip, paint and decorate the interior of the Premises and to display such proprietary marks and signs on the interior and exterior of the Premises pursuant to the Franchise Agreement and any successor Franchise Agreement.

    1. Assignment. Tenant has the right to assign all of its right, title and interest in the Lease to Aira Fitness or its successor, or either company's affiliates, at any time during the term of the Lease, including any extensions or renewals, without first obtaining Landlord's consent. No assignment will be effective, however, until Aira Fitness or its successor or designated affiliate gives Landlord written notice of its acceptance of the assignment. If Aira Fitness elects to assume the lease under this paragraph or unilaterally assumes the lease as provided for in subparagraphs 3(c) or 4(a), Landlord and Tenant agree that (i) Tenant will remain liable for the responsibilities and obligations, including amounts owed to Landlord, prior to the date of assignment and assumption, and (ii) Aira Fitness will have the right to sublease the Premises to another AIRA FITNESS franchisee, without further need for Landlord approval, provided the franchisee agrees to operate the Aira Fitness Business as an Aira Fitness Business pursuant to a franchise agreement with Aira Fitness. Aira Fitness will be responsible for the lease obligations incurred after the effective date of the assignment.

Landlord agrees to provide Aira Fitness the written notice of default as written and on the same day Landlord gives it to Tenant. Although Aira Fitness is under no obligation to cure the default, Aira Fitness will notify Landlord it intends to cure the default and unilaterally assume Tenant's interest in the lease as provided in Paragraph 3(c).

What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Aira Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Aira Fitness has the right to assume the tenant's interest in the lease under specific circumstances. These include upon the expiration or termination of the Franchise Agreement, or upon the tenant's default and failure to cure a default under either the Lease or the Franchise Agreement. However, it is important to note that Aira Fitness has the right, but not the obligation, to assume the tenant's interest in the lease.

If Aira Fitness elects to assume the lease, the tenant will remain liable for responsibilities and obligations, including amounts owed to the Landlord, prior to the date of assignment and assumption. Aira Fitness will be responsible for the lease obligations incurred after the effective date of the assignment. Additionally, Aira Fitness has the right to sublease the premises to another Aira Fitness franchisee without further need for Landlord approval, provided the franchisee agrees to operate the Aira Fitness Business as an Aira Fitness Business pursuant to a franchise agreement with Aira Fitness.

In the event of a default by the tenant, the landlord is required to provide written notice to both the tenant and Aira Fitness. Aira Fitness then has the option to notify the landlord of its intent to cure the default and unilaterally assume the tenant's interest in the lease, with an additional fifteen days from the expiration of the tenant's cure period to take action. All notices to Aira Fitness must be sent by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to the address specified in the FDD.
