Does the Buns On Fire disclosure document include an exhibit for State Specific Addenda?

According to the 2025 Buns On Fire Franchise Disclosure Document, there is an exhibit for State Specific Addenda. Specifically, Exhibit F is designated as the "State Specific Addendum." Furthermore, the document includes addenda to the Franchise Disclosure Document for several states including California, Washington, Rhode Island, Virginia, Minnesota, and Indiana.

These addenda modify certain aspects of the standard franchise agreement to comply with specific state laws. For example, the California addendum stipulates that California franchisees should not complete certain questions in the questionnaire attached to the Franchise Agreement. The addenda for Hawaii defers payment of the initial franchise fee until pre-opening obligations are met and the franchisee commences operation. The Washington addendum includes information regarding the Washington Franchise Investment Protection Act.

These state-specific addenda are crucial for prospective franchisees as they outline the specific legal requirements and modifications to the franchise agreement that apply in their state. Franchisees should carefully review the addendum for their state to understand their rights and obligations under the franchise agreement, as these addenda can supersede or modify the standard terms of the agreement. This is a fairly common practice in franchising, as state franchise laws vary considerably and franchisors must tailor their agreements to comply with local regulations.
