How much notice will Bigfoot Forestry provide before suspending or discontinuing the brand fund?

According to the 2025 Bigfoot Forestry FDD, Bigfoot Forestry may suspend or discontinue the brand fund at any time, providing franchisees with 30 days' prior notice.

This means that Bigfoot Forestry has the right to stop or end the brand fund with only a 30-day heads up to its franchisees. The brand fund is used for marketing and advertising activities, so any changes to it could impact a franchisee's marketing efforts.

It is important to note that Bigfoot Forestry has sole discretion in determining the content, concepts, materials, media, endorsements, frequency, placement, location, and all other matters pertaining to marketing or advertising activities. The FDD also states that the fund is not a trust and Bigfoot Forestry has no fiduciary obligations to franchisees regarding the fund's administration. This gives Bigfoot Forestry significant control over the brand fund and its usage.
