Under what circumstances can Learningrx or the Franchisee bring an action related to the Spousal Affiliate Agreement in any court with jurisdiction, regardless of the specified venue?

According to Learningrx's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, both Learningrx and the franchisee have the option to initiate legal proceedings related to the Spousal Affiliate Agreement in any court that possesses jurisdiction, irrespective of the usual venue stipulations, if the action involves a request for injunctive relief or other extraordinary relief.

This provision grants Learningrx and its franchisees greater flexibility in selecting a venue for disputes, particularly when seeking urgent or non-monetary remedies. Injunctive relief typically aims to prevent someone from taking a specific action, while extraordinary relief encompasses remedies beyond standard monetary damages. This clause recognizes that certain breaches of the Spousal Affiliate Agreement may require immediate action and allows Learningrx or the franchisee to pursue such remedies in any court that can provide appropriate relief.

For a prospective Learningrx franchisee, this clause offers a degree of protection and recourse in situations where swift legal action is necessary to safeguard their business interests or Learningrx's brand reputation. However, it's important to note that this applies specifically to actions seeking injunctive or extraordinary relief, and other types of disputes may still be subject to the venue restrictions outlined in the agreement, which specify El Paso or Denver County, Colorado as the venue.
