What is the issue date of the Franchise Disclosure Document for Beehive Homes referenced in Exhibit J?

According to Beehive Homes' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the issue date of the Franchise Disclosure Document is April 28, 2025. This date is significant because Beehive Homes must provide the Franchise Disclosure Document to a prospective franchisee at least 14 calendar days before they sign a binding agreement or make any payment related to the franchise. This requirement ensures that franchisees have adequate time to review the document and seek professional advice.

The Franchise Disclosure Document summarizes the franchise agreement's provisions and other relevant information. It is crucial for potential franchisees to read the document and all related agreements carefully. The document includes several exhibits, such as state franchise administrators, lists of franchised homes and franchisees ceasing operations, financial statements, the franchise agreement, and other pertinent information.

If Beehive Homes fails to deliver the Franchise Disclosure Document on time or if the document contains false, misleading, or omits important information, it may constitute a violation of federal and state laws. In such cases, the franchisee should report the violation to the Federal Trade Commission and the relevant state agency listed in Exhibit A. The issue date serves as a reference point for determining whether the document was provided in a timely and accurate manner.
