The franchise agreement requires you to sign a general release of claims if you transfer your franchise or your multi-unit development agreement. California corporations code §31512 voids a waiver of your rights under the franchise investment law (California corporations code §§31000 through 31516). The business and professions code §20010 voids a waiver of your rights under the franchise relations act (business and professions code §§20000 through 20043).

This provision supersedes any other term of any document executed in connection with the franchise.
