Specifications and Standards. You must purchase certain products, supplies and equipment under specifications and standards that we periodically establish either in the Franchise Agreement, Manual or notices we send to you occasionally. These specifications are established to provide standards for performance, durability, design and appearance. We will notify you whenever we establish or revise any of our standards or specifications, or if we designate new or additional approved suppliers for products, equipment or services. Even if we designate and approve a supplier, you will not be obligated to purchase any items from it, except as noted earlier.
We do not currently, but reserve the right to negotiate purchase agreements for certain equipment or supplies. You may purchase such equipment or supplies from these designated suppliers or from any approved supplier on the terms as you negotiate. The Manual contains details relating to these purchases. At the time you open the Franchised Business you must stock the initial inventory of products, equipment, services and supplies required by us as outlined in the Manual or otherwise in writing.
