What document must an All County franchisee execute to participate in the Reconciliation Assistance Program?

According to All County's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, as a condition of participating in the Reconciliation Assistance Program, a franchisee must execute Appendix E to the Franchise Agreement. The Reconciliation Assistance Program is a service provided by All County to assist franchisees in reconciling bookkeeping and accounting data related to their franchised business operations.

All County requires franchisees to participate in the Reconciliation Assistance Program. Franchisees must participate in the program for at least the first 18 full accounting periods from the franchise agreement's effective date. After this initial period, a franchisee can request in writing to be released from mandatory participation in the program.

For the first six full accounting periods, All County provides the Reconciliation Program services without charging a Reconciliation Assistance Program Fee. After this initial period, the Reconciliation Assistance Program Fee is $425 per accounting period. Additionally, All County charges $45 per hour for any work related to a franchisee's failure to comply with the required methods of operation for reconciling client accounts. All County may increase the Reconciliation Assistance Program Fee and hourly fee with 30 days' prior written notice, but not more than once in any 12 consecutive accounting periods.

If a franchisee uses a qualifying Broker of Record who is not an owner of the franchised business, the franchisee must participate in the Reconciliation Assistance Program until an owner becomes a qualified Broker of Record. This requirement ensures proper financial oversight and compliance within the franchise.
