Based on the 2025 Bumper Man Franchise Disclosure Document, the excerpts provided do not specify which state's laws govern the interpretation and enforcement of the Bumper Man Guaranty. However, the document includes addenda for franchisees in specific states like Rhode Island, Washington, New York, Maryland, and Minnesota, addressing how the franchise agreement interacts with those states' franchise laws. These addenda primarily focus on modifications or clarifications to ensure compliance with state-specific franchise regulations.

Several addenda include clauses that address governing law and enforcement within the context of franchise agreements. For example, the Rhode Island addendum notes that any provision restricting jurisdiction or venue to a forum outside of Rhode Island or requiring the application of another state's laws is void with respect to claims enforceable under the Rhode Island Franchise Investment Act. Similarly, the Minnesota addendum states that nothing in the Franchise Disclosure Document or Franchise Agreement can reduce a franchisee's rights under the Minnesota Franchise Investment Law.

Given the absence of a specific clause addressing the governing law for the Guaranty itself, it is important for a prospective Bumper Man franchisee to clarify with the franchisor which state's laws govern the interpretation and enforcement of the Guaranty. This information is crucial for understanding the legal framework that would apply in case of disputes related to the Guaranty.
