What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Beem Light Sauna Franchise Disclosure Document, the Guarantors waive certain rights and notices related to the Guaranteed Liabilities. Specifically, the Guarantors waive presentment, demand, notice of dishonor, protest, and all other notices. This includes notices of acceptance of the guarantee, the existence or creation of any Guaranteed Liabilities, the amounts and terms of those liabilities, and any defaults, disputes, or controversies between Beem Light Sauna and the Franchisee, as well as any settlements, compromises, or adjustments related to those issues.
This waiver means that the Guarantors will not be formally notified of many actions or events related to the Franchisee's obligations. Beem Light Sauna does not have to seek payment from the Franchisee first or pursue any other security for the Guaranteed Liabilities before enforcing the Guarantee. The Guarantee is considered primary, meaning Beem Light Sauna can immediately seek fulfillment of the obligations from the Guarantors without initially targeting the Franchisee.
The Guarantee remains effective even if the Franchisee becomes insolvent, undergoes reorganization, merger, or consolidation, or experiences a change in ownership. The Guarantee is irrevocable, absolute, and unconditional, remaining in full force until all Guaranteed Liabilities are fully paid or the Franchise Agreement expires.
These waivers and conditions place a significant responsibility on the Guarantors, as they may be required to fulfill the Franchisee's obligations without prior notice or recourse to the Franchisee's assets. Prospective franchisees should ensure that any Guarantors fully understand these obligations and have consulted with legal counsel, as indicated in the agreement, to comprehend the implications of the Guarantee.
