What constitutes strict compliance for a Caring Transitions franchisee to receive rebates?

According to Caring Transitions' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, strict compliance for rebate eligibility involves several key factors. To be eligible for any rebates, a franchisee must strictly and promptly adhere to all obligations outlined in any agreement or instrument between the franchisee and Caring Transitions throughout the entire rebate period. This includes timely reporting of Gross Receipts and timely payment of all Royalties, National Branding Fees, Technology Fees, and other amounts due under the Franchise Agreement.

Additionally, the franchisee must attend all franchise system national and regional conferences, as well as all required on-site training centers. Furthermore, prior to receiving each rebate, the franchisee must execute a general release in a form prescribed by Caring Transitions. Failure to comply with any of these requirements can render the franchisee ineligible for rebates.

It's important to note that if the Franchise Agreement is terminated for any reason before the end of its initial term, the franchisee must return all rebates received to Caring Transitions. Moreover, any default on any agreement or instrument between the franchisee and Caring Transitions during the rebate period can nullify the rebate addendum, in addition to any other remedies Caring Transitions may pursue under the Franchise Agreement, at law, or in equity. Therefore, maintaining strict compliance is crucial for a Caring Transitions franchisee to receive and retain any rebates offered.
