For Learningrx franchisees in Indiana, what sections of the Franchise Disclosure Document and Franchise Agreement are amended to omit any reference to selection of an out-of-Indiana forum?

According to the 2025 Learningrx Franchise Disclosure Document, certain sections are amended for franchisees operating in Indiana to ensure compliance with Indiana law. Specifically, these amendments address provisions that might compel franchisees to litigate disputes in a forum outside of Indiana. This is to protect the franchisee's rights within the state.

Item 17(w) of the Learningrx Franchise Disclosure Document, Section 16 of the Franchise Agreement, and Section 10.02 of the Area Developer Agreement are amended to remove any mention of selecting a legal forum outside of Indiana. This means that Learningrx franchisees in Indiana will not be forced to resolve disputes in a court or legal setting located outside the state, providing them with a more convenient and potentially less expensive legal recourse.

This amendment ensures that Indiana-based Learningrx franchisees are not subjected to potentially unfavorable or burdensome legal proceedings in other states. It aligns the franchise agreement with Indiana law, which seeks to protect franchisees from being compelled to litigate in distant or inconvenient forums. Prospective franchisees should carefully review these amended sections to understand their rights and obligations regarding dispute resolution within the franchise agreement.
