What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Embassy Suites By Hilton Franchise Disclosure Document, the 'Effective Date' of the franchise agreement can be found in several key documents and agreements. Specifically, the Franchise Agreement itself states that it is dated as of the Effective Date. Additionally, if applicable, amendments such as the Eforea Spa Amendment to Franchise Agreement also specify an Effective Date. Furthermore, the U.S. Guaranty of Franchise Agreement also includes a section to be executed as of a specific date, which is referred to as the Effective Date.
For a prospective Embassy Suites By Hilton franchisee, this means the Effective Date is a crucial element in defining when the agreement and its associated obligations officially begin. It is essential to carefully review all related documents, including the main Franchise Agreement, any addenda, and any guarantees, to confirm this date. The Effective Date triggers various responsibilities and timelines outlined in the agreement, such as opening dates, compliance requirements, and payment schedules.
It is also important to note that the Technology Service Provider (TSP) Agreement references an effective date as the date signed by Hilton Supply Management (HSS), indicating that different agreements associated with the franchise may have distinct effective dates. Therefore, franchisees should pay close attention to each document's specific terms and conditions to fully understand their obligations and rights under the Embassy Suites By Hilton franchise system.
