You must operate your Beauty Bungalows Franchise in accordance with our standard business operating practices and sign our standard franchise agreement ("Franchise Agreement"), which is attached to this Disclosure Document as Exhibit B.

You will have no obligation, nor any right, to open any additional locations other than the Site or to use the Marks or the System in any wholesale, e-commerce, or other channel of distribution.
Multi-Unit Development Business
We also offer, to qualified applicants, the opportunity to develop additional units by purchasing the rights to develop multiple Beauty Bungalows Franchises in a defined geographical area (the ("Development Area") in accordance with a specified business development schedule ("Development Schedule"). You will be required to sign our area development agreement ("Area development agreement" or "ADA") at the same time you execute the Initial Franchise Agreement, and you will be required to develop these additional units within a fixed time period. The Initial Franchise Agreement will count as the first unit developed as part of your ADA. You must sign our then-current franchise agreement for each additional unit opened under the terms of the ADA. These franchise agreements may not be the same as the initial Franchise Agreement that you will sign for your first Franchise ("Initial Franchise Agreement").

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Beauty Bungalows Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee is obligated to develop and operate one Beauty Bungalows franchise location at a mutually agreed-upon site. The specific area of the site will be detailed in the Franchise Agreement. This obligation is tied to the right granted to the franchisee under the agreement.
The franchisee does not have the right or obligation to open additional locations beyond the specified site unless they enter into an area development agreement. They are also restricted from using the Beauty Bungalows marks or system in wholesale, e-commerce, or other distribution channels outside of the physical location.
For franchisees seeking to expand, Beauty Bungalows offers the opportunity to develop multiple units within a defined geographical area under an area development agreement (ADA). This agreement requires franchisees to adhere to a specified development schedule. The initial franchise agreement counts as the first unit developed under the ADA, and subsequent units require signing the then-current franchise agreement, which may differ from the initial agreement.
