What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to the 2025 Learningrx Franchise Disclosure Document, Learningrx typically provides a franchisee 30 days to correct a breach of the franchise agreement after receiving written notice. Specifically, if a franchisee fails to maintain and operate the business in compliance with the agreement, the Learningrx system, or the operations manual, they have 30 days to fix the issue. This 30-day cure period also applies if the franchisee fails to pay Learningrx, its affiliates, or suppliers for obligations under the agreement, fails to comply with any material federal, state, or local law, fails to open the business within nine months, or breaches any other term of the agreement.
However, Learningrx can terminate the franchise agreement immediately without notice under certain circumstances. These include misrepresentation or omission of material facts that induced Learningrx to enter into the agreement, failure to complete the required initial training, failure to designate an acceptable site, or failure to obtain required licenses or hire licensed professionals within six months of signing the agreement.
It's important to note that these termination clauses may be subject to state laws that provide different notice and cure periods. For example, the FDD states that in Minnesota, franchisees are typically given 90 days' notice of termination with 60 days to cure, and 180 days' notice for non-renewal, except in certain specific cases. Therefore, prospective franchisees should be aware of both the Learningrx franchise agreement terms and any applicable state laws regarding termination and cure periods.
