What This Means (2024 FDD)
According to the 2024 Hyper Kidz Franchise Disclosure Document, all written notices and reports must be delivered in a specific manner to be considered properly delivered under the terms of the Franchise Agreement.
Notices can be delivered by hand, which is considered delivered at the time of delivery. Alternatively, notices can be sent via facsimile, with delivery deemed to occur one business day after transmission, provided there is machine-generated evidence of receipt. Another option is using a commercial courier service for overnight delivery, with delivery considered one business day after being placed in their hands. Electronic mail is also acceptable, with delivery considered one business day after transmission, so long as a hard copy is also sent via another approved method.
Finally, notices can be sent via the United States Mail using Registered or Certified Mail, with Return Receipt Requested and postage prepaid. In this case, delivery is considered five business days after placement in the mail. All notices must be addressed as set forth in the introductory paragraph of the Franchise Agreement to ensure proper receipt.
