• 1. Interest in Premises. You must deliver to us, before you commence construction, and in any event no later than thirty (30) days after the Effective Date, either a deed reflecting your ownership of the Premises (the "Deed") or a copy of your lease for the Premises that allows you the right to enter into the Franchise Agreement (the "Lease"). If you fail to timely provide us the Deed or Lease, we may immediately terminate the Franchise Agreement. You represent and warrant that, throughout the Term of the Franchise Agreement, you will be entitled to possession of the Premises and your Hotel without restrictions that would interfere with your performance under the Franchise Agreement, subject to the reasonable requirements of any financing secured by your Hotel. You will provide us copies of all documentation reflecting your right to possession of the Premises at any time upon our request. Further, if you do not own the Premises, you must provide us with copies of any amendment, addendum, extension, or other modification to the Lease within five days following execution.

You acknowledge and agree that any of our involvement in the approval of location is for our sole benefit. You further acknowledge that you have been advised to obtain the advice of your own professional advisors in connection with your purchase of the Premises or the Lease, as applicable.

You agree to take all action necessary to perform the development and construction of your Hotel, renovation, furnishing, equipping, acquisition of supplies and the implementation of the Plans (as defined below) ("Construction Work") all in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Franchise Agreement, within the time frames that we specify.

Before you begin the Construction Work, you will submit copies of applicable permits, licenses and zoning variances to us for approval. We may assign you a project manager or onboarding specialist.
