Which section of the Pump It Up Franchise Agreement is deleted in its entirety?

According to the 2025 Pump It Up Franchise Disclosure Document, Section 17 of the Franchise Agreement is deleted in its entirety for franchisees in Washington state. This means that whatever topics or provisions Section 17 covered in the standard Pump It Up franchise agreement will not apply to franchisees operating in Washington.

Without knowing the specific content of Section 17, it's difficult to assess the full impact of this deletion. Franchise agreements typically cover a wide range of topics, such as the franchisee's obligations, the franchisor's responsibilities, intellectual property rights, termination conditions, and dispute resolution processes. The absence of Section 17 could significantly alter the contractual relationship between Pump It Up and its Washington franchisees, potentially creating both advantages and disadvantages for the franchisee.

Prospective Pump It Up franchisees in Washington should carefully review the franchise agreement and any related addenda with legal counsel to understand how the deletion of Section 17 affects their rights and obligations. They should also ask Pump It Up to explain the specific reasons for this deletion and how the subject matter of Section 17 is otherwise addressed in their franchise relationship.
