What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Cinnaholic FDD, the Guaranty Agreement stipulates that the undersigned (Guarantor) guarantees the Developer will punctually pay and perform each undertaking, condition, and covenant outlined in the Development Agreement. This guarantee is made in consideration of, and as an inducement to, Cinnaholic Franchising, LLC entering into the Development Agreement with the Developer.
In simpler terms, the guarantor is promising that the developer will fulfill all financial and operational obligations as specified in the Development Agreement. This includes making payments on time and adhering to all the terms and conditions of the agreement. The guarantor's commitment is absolute and unconditional, ensuring that Cinnaholic receives what is due under the Development Agreement.
This requirement protects Cinnaholic by providing an additional layer of security. If the developer fails to meet their obligations, Cinnaholic can seek recourse directly from the guarantor. This arrangement reduces the risk for Cinnaholic and ensures that there is a responsible party who is ultimately accountable for the developer's performance under the Development Agreement.
