Does Angry Chickz assume any liability by providing a waiver to a Developer?

According to the 2025 Angry Chickz Franchise Disclosure Document, Angry Chickz assumes no liability or obligation to the Developer by providing any waiver, approval, acceptance, consent, assistance, or suggestion to the Developer in connection with the Area Development Agreement. This also applies if Angry Chickz neglects, delays, or denies any request from the developer. This means that if Angry Chickz provides a waiver to a developer, the developer cannot hold Angry Chickz liable for any issues that may arise as a result of the waiver.

This clause protects Angry Chickz from potential lawsuits or claims by developers who may argue that Angry Chickz's advice or waivers led to financial losses or other damages. However, it's important to note that the specific terms and conditions of any waiver should be carefully reviewed by both Angry Chickz and the developer to ensure clarity and mutual understanding.

This type of clause is relatively common in franchise agreements, as franchisors often want to provide support and guidance to franchisees and developers without assuming undue liability for their business decisions. However, prospective developers should carefully consider the implications of this clause and seek legal advice to fully understand their rights and obligations.
