Answer from 2024 FDD Document

3.G. SPA RELOCATION

To the extent that Franchisee wishes to relocate the Franchised Business and, thereby, Franchisee's Spa Location and Franchisee's Spa Facility, Franchisee must obtain Franchisor's prior written consent, which Franchisor may refuse in Franchisor's Reasonable Business Judgment. Franchisee agrees that if Franchisor does consent to the relocation of the Franchised Business, that Franchisor may condition Franchisor's

consent to Franchisee's relocation request on requirements imposed by Franchisor which may include, among other things: (a) that the proposed Spa Location meet and satisfy Franchisor's then current standards for Spa Locations; (b) that the proposed Spa Facility meet and satisfy Franchisor's then current standards for Spa Facilities; (c) that the proposed Spa Facility be constructed and established in accordance with Franchisor's current standards and specifications; (d) that the proposed Spa Location be located within Franchisee's Designated Territory; (e) that the proposed Spa Location (even if it is located within the Designated Territory) not be within a close proximity to the Designated Territory and/or Spa Location of another Spa and/or Spa Location Franchise; and (f) that, as to the proposed Spa Facility and proposed Spa Location, Franchisee satisfy the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement for Spa Facilities, and Spa Locations including, but not limited to, the requirements set forth in Articles 2.A. and 3.B of this Agreement. Franchisee agrees that Franchisor possesses sole discretion as to whether or not Franchisor approves of Franchisee's relocation request.

What This Means (2024 FDD)

According to the 2024 C3 Wellness Spa Franchise Disclosure Document, the franchisee must get prior written consent from C3 Wellness Spa to relocate the Franchised Business, Spa Location, and Spa Facility. C3 Wellness Spa may refuse consent in its Reasonable Business Judgment.

If C3 Wellness Spa consents to the relocation, it may impose requirements. These may include that the proposed Spa Location and Facility meet C3 Wellness Spa's current standards for Spa Locations and Facilities. The Spa Facility must be constructed and established per C3 Wellness Spa's current standards and specifications. The proposed Spa Location must be within the franchisee's Designated Territory and not be too close to another Spa or Spa Location Franchise, even within the Designated Territory.

The franchisee must also satisfy the terms and conditions in the agreement for Spa Facilities and Locations, including those in Articles 2.A. and 3.B. C3 Wellness Spa retains sole discretion over approving any relocation request. A separate document, the Site Selection Acknowledgment, clarifies that identifying a potential site does not grant any territorial rights and is not an approval of any spa location.
