What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Batteries Plus Bulbs FDD, the Franchise Agreement does have exhibits attached to it. Specifically, Exhibit A, concerning the store location and protected area, is an integral part of the Franchise Agreement. Alternatively, there is an 'Alternative Exhibit A' that can be completed to determine the store location.
Exhibit A identifies the location of the store and the franchisee's protected area. If the parties use Alternative Exhibit A, they will agree upon a geographic area where the store location will be established, subject to the franchisor's written acceptance, at least 150 days before the store is scheduled to open. Once the franchisor approves a location within the geographic area established in Alternative Exhibit A, both parties will update Exhibit A to identify the protected area.
For a prospective Batteries Plus Bulbs franchisee, this means that the franchise agreement is not a standalone document but includes additional exhibits that define key terms and conditions, such as the store location and protected area. Franchisees should carefully review all exhibits to fully understand their rights and obligations under the Franchise Agreement.
