What date should be inserted on the Basecamp Fitness Franchisee Questionnaire related to the Area Development Agreement?

According to Basecamp Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Franchisee Questionnaire includes a section where prospective franchisees must insert the date on which they received a copy of the Area Development Agreement with all material blanks fully completed. This date signifies when the franchisee had access to the complete terms of the agreement before signing.

This requirement ensures that the prospective Basecamp Fitness franchisee has had adequate time to review the fully completed Area Development Agreement before making a final commitment. It aligns with the FTC's franchise rule, which mandates that franchisees receive the FDD and all related agreements at least 14 days before signing any binding documents or paying any fees. By providing this date, the franchisee acknowledges they have had the opportunity to examine the agreement thoroughly.

It is important to note that residents of California, Hawaii, Maryland, and Washington are not required to sign the Franchisee Questionnaire, or if they do, the questionnaire will not apply to them. This may be due to specific state franchise laws or regulations. Prospective franchisees should consult with a franchise attorney to fully understand their rights and obligations before signing any agreements.
