What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Bumble Roofing Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee's misrepresentation or violation of Anti-Terrorism Laws constitutes grounds for immediate termination of the franchise agreement. This extends to the franchisee, their owners, agents, and employees.
The FDD defines "Anti-Terrorism Laws" as Executive Order 13224, Terrorism Sanctions Regulations, Foreign Terrorist Organizations Sanctions Regulations, Cuban Assets Control Regulations, the USA PATRIOT Act, and all other present and future federal, state and local laws, ordinances, regulations, policies and any other requirements of any governmental authority relating to terrorist acts and/or acts of war.
This means that a Bumble Roofing franchisee must ensure full compliance with all relevant Anti-Terrorism Laws. Any failure to comply, whether intentional or unintentional, could lead to the immediate termination of the franchise agreement. Franchisees are also responsible for understanding and adhering to these laws, as well as ensuring that their employees and agents do so as well. This requirement highlights the importance of due diligence and ongoing monitoring to avoid any potential violations.
