Is Dryject required to furnish a bond or other security when seeking an injunction against the Signer?

According to the 2025 Dryject Franchise Disclosure Document, Dryject is not required to furnish a bond or other security when seeking an injunction against the franchisee's trainee in the event of a breach of the agreement. Specifically, if the trainee violates the agreement, Dryject can seek a temporary or permanent injunction and specific performance of the agreement's terms without needing to provide a bond or other security. This applies to situations where the trainee, who has access to Dryject's trade secrets, attempts to divert business or opportunities to a competitor.

This provision is designed to protect Dryject's interests and trade secrets by allowing swift legal action against a trainee who breaches their agreement. The trainee agrees that any breach would cause irreparable injury to Dryject, justifying the right to seek injunctive relief without the bond requirement. This clause is particularly relevant because trainees gain knowledge of the Dryject system and could potentially use that knowledge to harm the franchise if they were to work for a competitor.

For a prospective Dryject franchisee, this means that Dryject can act quickly and decisively to prevent a trainee from harming the business without the delay or expense of posting a bond. However, this provision applies specifically to breaches by the trainee and not necessarily to breaches by the franchisee themselves. Franchisees should be aware of this clause and ensure their trainees understand their obligations to protect Dryject's confidential information and business interests. It is also important to note that this clause is contingent on the trainee having access to Dryject's trade secrets and the need to protect the uniqueness of the Dryject system.
