What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Basecamp Fitness's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Liquidated Damages fee is payable if the franchisee's Area Development Agreement (ADA) is terminated and they have not developed all of the Basecamp Fitness studios they agreed to develop under the ADA.
The amount of the Liquidated Damages fee is $10,000 multiplied by the number of undeveloped Basecamp studios. This fee is due immediately after notice from Basecamp Fitness.
This means that if a franchisee signs an Area Development Agreement committing to open multiple Basecamp Fitness locations but fails to meet that obligation and the agreement is terminated, they will owe Basecamp Fitness $10,000 for each studio they failed to open. This is in addition to any other fees or penalties that may apply due to the termination of the agreement. This fee is designed to compensate Basecamp Fitness for the losses they incur when a franchisee fails to fulfill their development obligations.
