After receiving the Dermani Medspa Franchise Disclosure Document, what action must I take with the receipt acknowledgment pages found in Exhibit N?

According to Dermani Medspa's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, Exhibit N contains two identical pages acknowledging receipt of the entire document, including all exhibits. As a prospective franchisee, you are required to sign and return one copy of the receipt acknowledgment to Dermani Medspa, while retaining the other copy for your records along with the rest of the Franchise Disclosure Document.

This process confirms that you have received the FDD, which is a critical step in the franchise purchasing process. Federal and state laws mandate that franchisors provide this document to potential franchisees within a specific timeframe before any binding agreements are signed or payments are made. For instance, the FDD must be provided 14 calendar days before signing an agreement or making a payment. New York, Michigan and Iowa have slightly different requirements regarding the timing of providing the FDD.

Failure by Dermani Medspa to deliver the FDD on time, or if the document contains false, misleading, or omits material information, it could constitute a violation of federal and state laws. In such cases, the document advises that the issue should be reported to the Federal Trade Commission and the appropriate state agency listed in Exhibit C. Ensuring that you properly acknowledge and document your receipt of the FDD helps protect both you and Dermani Medspa in adhering to franchise regulations.
