During the term of this Agreement, the Location shall be used exclusively to operate a Non-Traditional Restaurant. During the term of this Agreement, Franchisee may not relocate the Location within the Host Facility. If the

Non-Traditional Location is within a Host Facility, Franchisor has approved the location and facility identified on Attachment A to the Non- Traditional Addendum. Franchisee acknowledges and warrants that Franchisor's approval of the Location, and the Host Facility does not constitute a guarantee, recommendation, or endorsement of the Location or Host Facility and that the success of the Non-Traditional Restaurant to be operated at the Location within the Host Facility depends upon Franchisee's abilities as an independent businessperson."
