What fee must a C12 Group franchisee pay to avoid the post-termination non-competition agreement?

According to the 2025 C12 Group Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must pay the Exit Fee to avoid the post-termination non-competition agreement. The document states that for two years after the termination of the agreement, a franchisee cannot be involved with a competitive business within their territory, within ten miles of their territory, within the territory of any other C12 Group franchise, or within ten miles of any other C12 Group franchise territory. A competitive business is defined as one that offers peer mentorship and coaching to Christian business leaders.

However, this post-termination non-competition obligation does not apply if the franchisee pays C12 Group the Exit Fee. The specific amount of the Exit Fee is not detailed in the provided excerpts.

Prospective franchisees should carefully consider the implications of the post-termination non-competition agreement and the Exit Fee. It is crucial to understand the amount of the Exit Fee and factor it into their financial planning, especially if they anticipate potentially leaving the C12 Group franchise system. It would be prudent to discuss this fee and its implications with C12 Group representatives during the due diligence process.
