What documentation regarding the financing of the Cicis Restaurant or its operations must the franchisee provide to the franchisor upon request?

According to Cicis' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, franchisees are required to provide Cicis with any and all loan documents or other documentation regarding the financing of their restaurant or its operations upon request. This requirement ensures that Cicis has access to information about the franchisee's financial status and the financial health of the restaurant.

This provision enables Cicis to monitor the franchisee's ability to meet their financial obligations and maintain the standards of the Cicis brand. By requesting loan documents and other financial records, Cicis can assess the franchisee's financial stability and identify any potential risks or issues that could impact the operation of the restaurant. This allows Cicis to offer support or take necessary actions to protect its brand and system.

For a prospective franchisee, this means being prepared to share detailed financial information with Cicis throughout the term of the franchise agreement. It is essential to maintain organized and accurate financial records and to understand that Cicis has the right to request and review these documents. Failure to provide the requested documentation could potentially lead to a breach of the franchise agreement and possible termination.
