Nothing contained herein shall be construed or deemed to impose any duty or obligation upon Us to collect such accounts receivable and, if all or a portion of such accounts receivable are not collected by Us, You release and waive any claims thereto against Us. If We are successful in collecting all or a part of such accounts receivable, We shall remit to You such sums collected after first deducting any and all monies owed to Us; after deducting the pro rata cost of servicing the customer(s) with respect to whom the receivables were collected; and, after further deducting Our costs of collection; and,

Such option shall be exercised, if at all, in whole or in part, by Us upon or within fifteen (15) days of termination of this Agreement. It is expressly understood that this provision is an option that We may or may not exercise, and that We are under no obligation to do so. We shall have the right to set off all amounts due from You against any payment We would otherwise make to You under this Subsection. If We and You cannot agree on the fair market value of the property, it will be determined by an independent appraisal paid for by both You and Us.

What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Dryject's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, upon termination or expiration of the franchise agreement, several financial obligations and procedures come into effect. Dryject has the right to collect any accounts receivable that you have, and you must assign these to them. Dryject will then remit any sums collected to you after deducting any monies owed to them, the pro rata cost of servicing the customer, and their costs of collection. You must also immediately stop contacting customers or former customers of the Dryject business for any purpose.

Furthermore, Dryject has the option to purchase your equipment, inventory, signs, supplies, and products used in the franchised business at fair market value. This option can be exercised within 15 days of the termination of the agreement. Dryject can also deduct any amounts you owe them from any payment they would otherwise make to you for these items. If you and Dryject cannot agree on the fair market value, an independent appraisal will determine the value, with the cost shared between you and Dryject.

If you have authorized Dryject to make electronic fund transfers for royalty or other fees, that authorization remains in effect until the termination or expiration of the franchise agreement. If there are insufficient funds to cover a transfer or if your financial institution refuses to honor a transfer, you are still responsible for paying the charges you owe to Dryject under the franchise agreement.
