What is the Circle K Franchisee's understanding regarding the Franchisor's grant of rights?

Except for the limited License granted to Franchisee hereunder, all other rights related to the Business System and the Marks not specifically granted to Franchisee hereunder are expressly reserved by Franchisor and its Affiliates.

Franchisee acknowledges that the License granted hereby relates solely to the Franchised Location, affords Franchisee no rights regarding other licenses or locations, and does not give Franchisee any exclusive right to market or sell to any prospective customers or any exclusive right to any territory.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Franchisee acknowledges and agrees that Franchisor and its Affiliates have expressly reserved certain rights to the use of the Marks, the Business Systems, the Methods, and Confidential Information in connection with their own convenience store and retailing operations, in connection with licensing the same or similar products or services utilizing the same or similar Marks, or any other trademarks, service marks or names, in connection with the manufacture and sale of products at wholesale and at retail, and in connection with granting such rights to others pursuant to a franchise agreement, some or all of which activities may compete, directly or indirectly, with Franchisee's operation of the Store.

Franchisee agrees that it will not in any way interfere with the business operations of Franchisor, its Affiliates or other franchisees.

Franchisor has the right to make such changes to the Business System as it deems appropriate, including without limitation, changes to the building appearance and "image" requirements.

Because complete and detailed uniformity under many varying conditions may not be possible or practical, Franchisor has the right to vary the standards for any license owner based upon the peculiarities of a particular site or circumstance, density of population, business potential, population or trade area, existing business practices, governmental requirements, local ordinances, or any other condition that Franchisor deems to be potentially significant to the successful operation of a Circle K Store.

A grant by Franchisor of one or more variances to one or more other franchisees will not entitle Franchisee to the same or a different variation.

• 2.3 Use of Franchised Location; No Subfranchising.

Franchisee agrees to operate the Store under the Business System using the Marks in strict compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
