4.1.1 We will train up to two people, which must include you (or your Operating Owner, if you are an Entity) and your Designated Manager (defined in Section 8.55 below), if applicable, in the material aspects of operating an Extreme Art Studio Business, at no charge for your first Extreme Art Studio Business you open, so long as all such persons attend training at the same time ("Initial Training Program"). We will provide the Initial Training Program at either our designated training facility in Minneapolis, Minnesota, such other location we designate or virtually. You may not begin your Extreme Art Studio Business until you (or your Operating Owner, if you are an Entity) and your Designated Manager, if any, complete our Initial Training Program to our satisfaction. If we determine that you (or your Operating Owner) or any Designated Manager cannot complete the Initial Training Program to our satisfaction, we may require your Operating Owner and/or Designated Manager to attend the Initial Training Program again in accordance with Section 4.1.2 or appoint a new Operating Owner and/or Designated Manager and send those individual(s) to the next available Initial Training Program, at your expense. If the Initial Training Program is not completed to our satisfaction after two attempts, we may terminate this
Franchise Agreement. You may invite additional employees to attend the Initial Training Program if space allows, though we will charge you our then-current training fee for each additional attendee. We reserve the right to limit the number of attendees for the Initial Training Program and the right to vary the length and content of the Initial Training Program as we deem appropriate in our sole discretion based on the experience of the attendee. We shall determine the scheduling, exact duration, contents and manner of the Initial Training Program in our discretion and may delay your attendance until a suitable time near the grand opening date for your Franchised Business in our discretion.
