Is specific performance an exclusive remedy for breach of the Clear Pest Pros Release?

According to Clear Pest Pros's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, specific performance is not the exclusive remedy for a breach of the Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement. Clear Pest Pros retains the right to pursue all available rights and remedies in the event of a breach. This means that Clear Pest Pros is not limited to only seeking specific performance, which is a court order compelling the breaching party to fulfill their obligations under the agreement.

For a prospective Clear Pest Pros franchisee, this implies that if they were to breach the Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement, Clear Pest Pros could pursue various legal avenues beyond just demanding the franchisee comply with the agreement's terms. This could include seeking monetary damages to compensate for losses resulting from the breach, injunctive relief to prevent further breaches, or other remedies available under applicable law.

This provision protects Clear Pest Pros's confidential information and trade secrets by providing them with multiple options to address breaches. It also means that a franchisee faces potentially broader liability if they violate the Confidentiality and Non-Disclosure Agreement, as the consequences are not limited to simply being compelled to comply with the agreement. Franchisees should, therefore, take extra care to protect Clear Pest Pros's confidential information.
