Which statements are deleted from Attachment 1 (Franchisee Acknowledgement Statement) to the Baya Bar Franchise Agreement in California?

According to Baya Bar's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, specific statements within Attachment 1, the Franchisee Acknowledgement Statement, are deleted for franchisees in California. Specifically, statements 5 and 12 of Attachment 1 are removed from the Franchise Agreement for California franchisees. This deletion is likely due to California-specific franchise laws that may conflict with the standard language in those statements.

This modification indicates that Baya Bar is adapting its franchise agreement to comply with California franchise regulations, which are known to be protective of franchisees. The deletion of these statements suggests that the original statements might contain terms that are either unenforceable or not compliant with California law.

Prospective franchisees in California should carefully review the revised Attachment 1 to understand which specific franchisee acknowledgements have been removed and consult with a legal professional to fully understand their rights and obligations under the Baya Bar Franchise Agreement, as modified for California. Franchisees should also inquire with Baya Bar about the reasons for these deletions and how they impact the franchise relationship in California.
