What exceptions are made to the condition in which a Cd One Price Cleaners subtenant must surrender the premises?

According to Cd One Price Cleaners' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a subtenant is generally required to surrender the premises in as good a condition as it was at the commencement date of the sublease. However, there are specific exceptions to this requirement.

The exceptions to this condition include ordinary wear and tear, damage caused by fire or other casualties, and taking by eminent domain. This means that the Cd One Price Cleaners subtenant will not be held responsible for deterioration that occurs naturally over time with normal use, or for damage resulting from unforeseen events like fires or natural disasters. Additionally, if the property is taken by the government for public use, the subtenant is not liable for any changes to the condition of the premises due to this action.

Furthermore, the condition in which the subtenant must surrender the premises must also align with the requirements of the Prime Lease, which is the original lease agreement between the landlord and the sublandlord. This indicates that the Cd One Price Cleaners subtenant's obligations are also governed by the terms of the Prime Lease, adding another layer of conditions to the surrender of the premises. A prospective franchisee should carefully review the Prime Lease to fully understand their obligations.
