After termination or expiration of the Learningrx Area Developer Agreement, can Learningrx open or license others to open centers within the Development Territory?

According to Learningrx's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, upon the termination or expiration of the Area Developer Agreement, Learningrx has the right to open or license others to open Learningrx centers within the Development Territory. This means that once the agreement concludes, Learningrx is no longer restricted from operating or franchising within the territory that was previously assigned to the Area Developer.

This clause has significant implications for prospective Area Developers. While the agreement is in effect, they have the exclusive right to develop Learningrx centers within their designated territory, provided they comply with the terms of the agreement and the Development Schedule. However, this exclusivity ends when the agreement expires or is terminated.

Therefore, an Area Developer's investment and efforts to build the Learningrx brand in their territory could potentially benefit Learningrx directly after the agreement ends, as Learningrx could then establish its own centers or grant franchises to others in the same area. This highlights the importance of understanding the terms of renewal and the factors that contribute to a successful, long-term relationship with Learningrx to maximize the return on investment within the Development Territory.
