In California, what specific attachment to the Baya Bar Multi-Unit Development Agreement has statements deleted?

According to Baya Bar's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, certain statements are deleted from Attachment 1 (Developer Acknowledgement Statement) to the Multi-Unit Development Agreement for franchisees in California. Specifically, Statements 4 and 8 are deleted from this attachment.

This deletion is likely due to California franchise law, which aims to protect franchisees by ensuring certain clauses are enforceable and align with state regulations. The FDD also notes several other California-specific legal considerations, such as the potential unenforceability of provisions related to choice of law, liquidated damages, and covenants not to compete.

Prospective Baya Bar franchisees in California should carefully review the entire FDD and all attachments, paying close attention to these California-specific addenda. It is advisable to consult with a legal professional experienced in franchise law to fully understand their rights and obligations under the Multi-Unit Development Agreement and Franchise Agreement, especially regarding the deleted statements and other legal considerations outlined in the FDD.
