Upon termination of the Byrider Agreement, what action must the Licensee immediately take regarding the Licensed System?

According to Byrider's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, immediately upon termination of the Agreement, the Licensee must cease all use, and make no further use, in whole or part, of the Licensed System. This means that a franchisee can no longer operate using Byrider's software, documentation, or other proprietary tools after the franchise agreement ends. This obligation is in place regardless of the reason for termination.

This requirement protects Byrider's intellectual property and ensures that former franchisees do not unfairly compete using Byrider's established systems. It is a standard practice in franchising to require cessation of use of licensed systems upon termination to maintain brand consistency and prevent confusion in the marketplace.

In addition to ceasing use of the Licensed System, the Franchisee has other obligations upon termination or expiration of the Franchise Agreement, including promptly paying all amounts owed to the Company, returning the Manual and other confidential materials including all the BYRIDER Computer Software, maintaining confidentiality of all proprietary and Confidential Information furnished by the Company, immediately ceasing using any of the Marks, and immediately making all alterations to the building facilities and exterior signs at the Business Location to distinguish them from the appearance and identity of a Business.
