Before allowing Covenantor to have access to the Confidential Information (defined below), and as a material requirement necessary to protect Franchisor's proprietary rights in and Franchisee's right to use the Confidential Information, Franchisor and Franchisee require that Covenantor enter into this Agreement.
To induce Franchisor to enter into the Franchise Agreement and/or to avoid a material breach thereof, as the case may be, Franchisor, Franchisee and Covenantor desire that Covenantor enter into this Agreement.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Amorino FDD, the franchise agreement is established between the Franchisor and the Franchisee. Specifically, the document states that the Franchisor intends to sign a franchise agreement with the Franchisee, outlining the rights granted to the Franchisee regarding the development and operation of an Amorino store.
Furthermore, before allowing the Covenantor access to confidential information, both Franchisor and Franchisee require the Covenantor to enter into an agreement to protect the Franchisor's proprietary rights and the Franchisee's right to use confidential information. This highlights the importance of protecting sensitive business information within the Amorino franchise system.
To ensure the Franchisor enters into the Franchise Agreement, or to avoid any potential breach, the Franchisor, Franchisee, and Covenantor agree that the Covenantor will enter into this Agreement. The agreement emphasizes that any unauthorized use or disclosure of confidential information could cause substantial harm to both the Franchisor and the Franchisee. However, the FDD does not specify the full name of the 'Franchisee'.
