Under what circumstances can Deer Solution terminate the franchise agreement with written notice but without an opportunity to cure?

According to the 2025 Deer Solution Franchise Disclosure Document, Deer Solution can terminate the franchise agreement with written notice and without an opportunity to cure under several specific circumstances. These include if the franchisee or an owner is convicted of or pleads guilty to a felony crime. Deer Solution can also terminate the agreement if the franchisee or an owner engages in intentionally dishonest or unethical conduct that, in Deer Solution's reasonable business judgment, results in embarrassment to Deer Solution, the System, the Licensed Marks, Deer Solution Businesses, the Franchised Business, and/or the reputation of the Deer Solution brand.

Additionally, Deer Solution can terminate the agreement without an opportunity to cure if the franchisee fails to complete, to Deer Solution's reasonable satisfaction, the Training Program and/or supplemental training programs designated by Deer Solution. The agreement can also be terminated if the franchisee fails to notify Deer Solution of any known breach of the Confidentiality Agreement or facts that would cause a reasonable person to believe that a person or entity violated the Confidentiality Agreement, and/or fails to take reasonable steps to prevent any person or entity from violating the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement and/or otherwise publicly disseminating Confidential Information, upon receiving actual or constructive notice.

Furthermore, Deer Solution can terminate the agreement without an opportunity to cure if the franchisee misappropriates, misuses, or makes any unauthorized use of the Licensed Marks, the Confidential Information, and/or the System, materially impairs the goodwill associated with the Licensed Marks, and/or applies for registration of the Licensed Marks anywhere in the world. Finally, Deer Solution can terminate the agreement if the franchisee and/or an Owner fails to comply with Anti-Terrorism Laws or becomes listed on the Annex to Executive Order 13244. These stipulations provide Deer Solution with significant power to immediately terminate the agreement under specific conditions, highlighting the importance for franchisees to adhere strictly to the terms of the agreement and maintain ethical and legal compliance.
