What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Epcon Communities' 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, access to the Epcon Communities Intranet, which begins after the franchise agreement is executed and accepted and access codes are issued, concludes upon termination by either the franchisee or Epcon Communities. The franchisee's access rights to the Intranet will immediately terminate without notice if the franchisee fails to maintain authorized franchisee status.
Epcon Communities retains the right to terminate the agreement and the franchisee's access to the website and databases at any time, with or without cause or notice. Upon termination of the agreement or access rights, the franchisee must immediately stop accessing the Epcon Communities Intranet, including the website and databases.
This means that a franchisee's access to the Intranet is contingent upon maintaining good standing as an Epcon Communities franchisee. A prospective franchisee should understand that Epcon Communities can revoke access to these resources at any time, which could impact their ability to manage and grow their franchise. It is important to note that certain sections of the franchise agreement, specifically Sections 6 through 18, will remain in effect even after the termination of the agreement.
