Pre-Opening Obligations
Before you begin your Business, we will:
-
- Designate your Territory in writing and approve, if it meets our standards and specifications for approval, the physical location selected solely by you to be used for the operation of the Center. (See Sections 4 and 10 of the Franchise Agreement).
-
- Provide digital access to our confidential Operations Manual, which contains specifications, standards, operating procedures and rules that must be followed. The Operations Manual is confidential and remains our property. We may modify the Operations Manual from time to time, but the modification will not alter your status and rights under the Franchise Agreement. We have included a copy of the Table of Contents of our Operations Manual as Exhibit F to this Franchise Disclosure Document. Given that the Operations Manual is completely electronic, it does not contain a set number of pages, however if it were to be printed, we estimate the total number of pages to be approximately 700. (See Section 7.04 of the Franchise Agreement).
-
- Provide limited advice about selecting and analyzing a site for the Center. Your site for a Micro Center must be at least 800 square feet and your site for a Standard Center must be at least 1,000 square feet, unless otherwise approved by us in writing prior to lease execution, and be located inside of your Territory. You must maintain a physical location for your Center at all times.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Learningrx's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee must maintain a physical location for their Learningrx Center at all times. The franchisor must approve the physical location selected by the franchisee. For a Micro Center, the location must be at least 800 square feet, while a Standard Center requires a minimum of 1,000 square feet, unless Learningrx provides written approval for a smaller space prior to lease execution. The location must be within the franchisee's designated territory.
Learningrx offers limited advice on site selection, considering factors such as population density, income levels, general location guidelines, and proximity to other Learningrx Centers. The franchisee is responsible for the final site selection. If Learningrx does not approve the initial site, the franchisee must propose two alternate sites for evaluation. Learningrx has 30 days to approve or disapprove a site after receiving notice from the franchisee.
If Learningrx does not approve the franchisee's site, they may terminate the Franchise Agreement. The franchisee is responsible for leasing or purchasing the location from independent third parties. Additionally, the franchisee is responsible for submitting plans for the Center's design for Learningrx's approval and must cover all construction or remodeling costs to meet Learningrx's standards and specifications.
