What happens if the Cinnaholic Bakery location is in a state where Cinnaholic is not permitted to sell franchises?

Development Agreement. The Development Agreement will specify an Area of Responsibility within which you will focus your development efforts. Under the Development Agreement, you are not granted a territory, exclusive or otherwise, within which to develop your Bakery(s). Under the Development Agreement, we will determine or approve the location of future units and any territories for those units, and the then-current standards for sites and territories will apply. You may establish a Bakery at any location within your Area of Responsibility provided that we consent to the location, which may be granted or withheld in our sole discretion, the location is in a state where we are permitted to sell CINNAHOLIC® franchises, and the location is not located in another franchisee's franchise territory or area of responsibility. We will notify you of those areas which have been assigned to franchisees, either as exclusive territories or areas of responsibility. We do not intend to grant a large number of franchise territories, although we intend to grant other franchisees areas of responsibility within which they will concentrate their development efforts. An area of responsibility is a geographic territory within which we expect you to concentrate your development efforts. You will have no exclusive territorial rights, protected territory or other rights to exclude, control or impose conditions on the location or development of other or future franchises under the Marks or on our activities, except as may be provided in an applicable Franchise Agreement. If you fail to meet your development schedule, we may terminate your Development Agreement. You will not receive an exclusive territory. You may face competition from other franchisees, from outlets that we own, or from other channels of distribution or competitive brands that we control.
