What required action must the Landlord take regarding modifications to the lease agreement with Cicis?

According to Cicis's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the landlord has a specific obligation regarding any modifications to the lease agreement. The landlord must provide Cicis with a copy of any modification, extension, renewal, rescission, or amendment to the lease immediately after it has been executed.

This requirement ensures that Cicis is kept fully informed of any changes to the lease agreement between the franchisee and the landlord. This is crucial for Cicis to protect its interests and ensure that the lease terms align with the franchise agreement. By receiving immediate notification of any alterations, Cicis can promptly assess the impact of these changes on the franchisee's ability to operate the Cicis restaurant and uphold brand standards.

This provision is a standard practice in franchising, where the franchisor has a vested interest in the stability and terms of the franchisee's location. It allows Cicis to maintain oversight and control over key aspects of the franchise operation, even though they are not a direct party to the lease agreement. The franchisee also benefits from this arrangement, as Cicis's involvement can help ensure fair and reasonable lease terms.
