What days are excluded from the definition of 'business day' in the Beauty Bungalows agreement?

According to Beauty Bungalows' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the definition of a 'business day' excludes specific days for the purposes of the franchise agreement. This is relevant to how certain deadlines or notification periods are calculated.

Specifically, the agreement excludes Saturdays and Sundays from the definition of a business day. In addition to weekends, the following national holidays are also excluded: New Year's Day, Martin Luther King Day, Presidents' Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Columbus Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving, and Christmas.

This definition is important because certain actions or notifications related to the Beauty Bungalows franchise agreement may have deadlines that are calculated in 'business days'. For example, the FDD states that notices sent by expedited delivery service or registered/certified mail are deemed given three business days after mailing. Franchisees should be aware of these exclusions to ensure they comply with the agreement's requirements and deadlines.
