What is the deadline for opening a new Learningrx Center in each Development Territory?
Learningrx Franchise · 2025 FDDAnswer from 2025 FDD Document
If you sign an Area Development Agreement to purchase Area Development Rights, you will acquire the temporary right to develop Centers in 1 or more non-exclusive Development Territories described in a Development Schedule, which you and we must agree upon. Site selection is your responsibility, but we will assist you in the location selection process by considering population density, income levels, general location guidelines, and the proximity of the proposed site to other LearningRx Centers, along with the then-current, or any other reasonable criteria. The Development Schedule will require you to open at least 1 new Center in each Development Territory every 12 months. Your failure to satisfy the terms of the Development Schedule may result in the termination of your Area Development Agreement, the reduction of your Area Development Rights, or the loss of 1 or more Development Territories, at our discretion. When and if the Development Schedule has been finally satisfied or expires by its terms, you will no longer have rights to your Development Territory, and each Center will be limited to its individual Territory.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Learningrx's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, if a franchisee signs an Area Development Agreement, they are required to open at least one new Learningrx Center in each Development Territory every 12 months. This schedule is documented in a Development Schedule agreed upon by both the franchisee and Learningrx.
Failure to meet the terms of the Development Schedule can lead to consequences such as termination of the Area Development Agreement, reduction of Area Development Rights, or the loss of one or more Development Territories. This underscores the importance of careful planning and execution in expanding the franchise.
Once the Development Schedule is satisfied or expires, the franchisee's rights to the Development Territory end, and each Learningrx Center is limited to its individual Territory. This means the franchisee no longer has the exclusive right to develop additional centers in the area, emphasizing the time-sensitive nature of the development agreement.
