Under what grounds can a Pump It Up franchisee terminate the agreement?

According to the 2025 Pump It Up Franchise Disclosure Document, a franchisee's ability to terminate the agreement is determined by applicable law. Specifically, for franchisees in Washington state, the FDD states that the franchisee may terminate the Agreement upon any grounds available by law.

This means that the specific legal grounds for termination would depend on the franchise laws and general contract laws in effect in the franchisee's jurisdiction. These laws often allow termination for reasons such as breach of contract by the franchisor, fraud, or other specific violations of franchise regulations.

Prospective Pump It Up franchisees should consult with an attorney to understand their rights and obligations regarding termination under the laws of their specific state or jurisdiction. This is particularly important as franchise agreements often heavily favor the franchisor, and the legal grounds for a franchisee to terminate may be limited without proper legal counsel.
