B_Bops Franchise · 2025 FDD

Answer from 2025 FDD Document

Upon approval of a proposed site, Company shall grant Developer the right and license to own and operate a B-Bop's Restaurant at such site, provided that Developer is in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the terms of all Unit Franchise Agreements between the parties. Subject to the foregoing, Company shall forward to Developer a Unit Franchise Agreement to be executed with respect to the approved site. The Unit Franchise Agreement shall be the standard form of franchise agreement being utilized by Company to grant franchises at the time of development of each Unit. Developer shall execute the Unit Franchise Agreement in accordance with Company's instructions within twenty (20) days of receipt thereof and return it, together with the initial franchise fee payable for the Unit (as specified in Appendix III), to Company. In the event Developer fails to return the Unit Franchise Agreement and the initial franchise fee to Company within such twenty (20) day period, Company's approval of the site shall be null and void and Developer shall have no rights with respect to such site. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the terms and conditions of the Unit Franchise Agreement executed for the Unit developed pursuant to this Agreement shall govern and control the franchise relationship for each such Unit, except to the extent that such terms and conditions conflict with the provisions of this Agreement, in which event the provisions of this Agreement shall control. The parties further acknowledge and agree that the terms and conditions of each Unit Franchise Agreement executed pursuant to this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the expiration and termination of this Agreement.

What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to B Bops's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, after B Bops approves a proposed site, the company will grant the Developer the right to own and operate a B Bops Restaurant at that location. This is conditional on the Developer complying with the terms of the Multiple-Unit Development Agreement and all Unit Franchise Agreements between the parties. B Bops will then forward a Unit Franchise Agreement to the Developer for execution.

The Developer must execute the Unit Franchise Agreement according to B Bops's instructions within twenty days of receiving it. Along with the signed agreement, the Developer must also return the initial franchise fee, as specified in Appendix III of the FDD, to B Bops.

If the Developer fails to return both the Unit Franchise Agreement and the initial franchise fee within the twenty-day period, B Bops's site approval becomes null and void. In this case, the Developer loses all rights related to that specific site. The terms and conditions of the Unit Franchise Agreement will govern the franchise relationship for each unit developed, unless they conflict with the Multiple-Unit Development Agreement, in which case the latter prevails. The Unit Franchise Agreement remains in effect even if the Multiple-Unit Development Agreement expires or terminates.
