What is the meaning of capitalized terms used but not defined in the Bumper Man Certified Technician Addendum?

According to the 2025 Bumper Man Franchise Disclosure Document, capitalized terms within the Certified Technician Addendum, which are not specifically defined in the addendum itself, carry the same meaning as defined in the main Bumper Man Franchise Agreement. This ensures consistency and avoids ambiguity in interpreting the legal obligations and rights outlined in both documents.

For a prospective Bumper Man franchisee, this means that understanding the definitions in the Franchise Agreement is crucial, as these definitions extend to the addendum governing the Certified Technician. Franchisees should carefully review the Franchise Agreement to fully grasp the meaning of capitalized terms used throughout the Certified Technician Addendum.

For example, terms like "Affiliate," "Agreement," "Applicable Law," "Bumper Business," "Brand," "Brand Property," "Business Day," "Certified Technician," and "Certified Technician Addendum" are defined within the main Franchise Agreement. Franchisees need to understand these definitions, as they are foundational to interpreting the scope and limitations of the Certified Technician's role and responsibilities. This interconnectedness underscores the importance of thoroughly reviewing the entire Franchise Agreement and all associated addenda to fully understand the franchisee's and the Certified Technician's obligations and rights.
