What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to Bor Restoration's 2024 Franchise Disclosure Document, the term 'Party' refers to BOR Franchising, LLC (Franchisor), the Franchisee, and the Guarantor. These entities may be individually referred to as a 'Party' or collectively as the 'Parties.'
This definition appears in both the Guaranty of Franchisee's Obligations and the General Release documents. It clarifies that 'Party' is a singular term used to denote any of the involved entities (Franchisor, Franchisee, or Guarantor) in the context of these agreements. The plural term 'Parties' refers to all of them collectively.
For a prospective Bor Restoration franchisee, this means that any document referencing 'Party' could be referring to them, the franchisor, or the guarantor, depending on the context. It is important to understand which entity is being referenced to fully grasp the obligations and rights outlined in the specific clause or section of the agreement. This distinction is crucial for understanding legal responsibilities and entitlements within the franchise relationship.
