Are there any circumstances under which the Exit FDD receipt acknowledgement is not required?

Exit Franchise · 2025 FDD

Answer from 2025 FDD Document

THE RECEIPT IS A SEPARATE DOCUMENT ATTACHED AS EXHIBIT G (2 COPIES) OF THIS DISCLOSURE DOCUMENT ACKNOWLEDGING RECEIPT OF THE DISCLOSURE DOCUMENT BY YOU.

Source: Item 23 — RECEIPT (FDD pages 42–235)

What This Means (2025 FDD)

According to Exit's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the receipt acknowledging that you received the FDD is a separate document attached as Exhibit G. The FDD states that there are two copies of this receipt. This implies that Exit requires a signed receipt to confirm that prospective franchisees have received and acknowledged the FDD.

The purpose of requiring a receipt is to ensure that franchisees have had the opportunity to review the FDD and make an informed decision about investing in the Exit franchise. This is a standard practice in franchising and is designed to protect both the franchisor and the franchisee.

Since the excerpt explicitly mentions the receipt's existence as a separate document (Exhibit G) and provides two copies, it strongly suggests that Exit always requires this acknowledgement. The document does not mention any circumstances where the receipt is not needed.
