Which item in the Bft Disclosure Document discusses Bft's post-termination obligations?

According to Bft's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Item 17 discusses the franchisee's post-termination obligations. The table provided in Item 11 cross-references various obligations with sections in the Franchise Agreement, Multi-Unit Agreement, and relevant items in the Disclosure Document. Specifically, it indicates that post-termination obligations are detailed in Article 13 and Section 15.3 of the Franchise Agreement, Section 8.C of the Multi-Unit Agreement, and Item 17 of the Disclosure Document.

This means that if the franchise agreement is terminated, either by Bft or the franchisee, or upon its natural expiration, the franchisee will have certain duties and responsibilities that continue even after the franchise relationship ends. These obligations could include things like non-compete clauses, confidentiality requirements, and the proper handling of Bft's proprietary information.

Prospective franchisees should carefully review Item 17 of the Bft FDD and the referenced sections of the Franchise Agreement to fully understand the scope and impact of these post-termination obligations. Understanding these obligations is crucial for making an informed decision about investing in a Bft franchise, as they can significantly affect the franchisee's future business activities after the franchise term.
