What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Capriottis Sandwich Shop FDD, the Site Selection Addendum serves to specify the accepted location for the franchise and is an integral part of the Franchise Agreement. The addendum supplements the Franchise Agreement, and its terms are controlling with respect to the subject matter. The accepted location is specified on a separate piece of paper and attached as Exhibit 2, becoming part of the Franchise Agreement.
This addendum is used to document the agreement between Capriottis Sandwich Shop and the franchisee regarding the specific location from which the franchisee will operate. This ensures that both parties are aligned on the chosen site and its suitability for a Capriottis Sandwich Shop restaurant. The Franchise Agreement grants the franchisee the right to operate a sandwich shop at the location specifically set forth in Section 3 of the agreement or on the Site Selection Addendum (Exhibit A).
Furthermore, the Site Selection Addendum ensures that the franchisee's right to use Capriottis Sandwich Shop's marks and system is limited to the designated location. This protects the brand by controlling where and how the franchise operates. The addendum also reinforces that the franchisee must adhere to the standards and methods defined in the Franchise Agreement and the Confidential Operations Manual.
