Can the lease addendum for Bhc be amended orally?

According to Bhc's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the lease addendum cannot be amended orally. The FDD states that the addendum may only be amended through a written agreement that is properly executed by each party involved.

This requirement for written amendments ensures that all changes to the lease addendum are documented and agreed upon by all parties, which include the landlord, tenant (franchisee), and Bhc. This protects all parties by providing a clear record of any modifications made to the original agreement, reducing the potential for misunderstandings or disputes in the future.

For a prospective Bhc franchisee, this means that any desired changes to the lease addendum must be formally documented in writing and signed by all relevant parties to be valid. This is a standard practice in franchising and real estate to maintain clarity and enforceability of agreements.
