- Initial Training Fee. This is our current Initial Training Fee that is paid to us to help defray the costs and expenses that are incurred in connection with the initial training we provide to you prior to you commencing operating your Franchised Business and for the two years after you commence operation, including the initial training program that you (or, if you are entity, your operating principal) and, if appropriate, manager that you designate to handle the day-to-day operations of your Franchised Business and that we approve (a "Designated Manager"). With that said, our standard franchise offering assumes that you or, if applicable, your operating principal will be directly managing the dayto-day operations of the Franchised Business over at least the first full year of operations.

What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Spray Net's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, the Initial Training Fee of $15,000 is paid to help cover the costs and expenses associated with the initial training provided to the franchisee. This training occurs before the franchisee begins operating their Spray Net business and continues for two years after operations commence.
The training program is for the franchisee (or their operating principal, if the franchisee is an entity) and, if applicable, a Designated Manager approved by Spray Net to handle the day-to-day operations. However, Spray Net's standard franchise offering anticipates that the franchisee or their operating principal will directly manage the business's daily operations for at least the first full year.
It's important to note that if a franchisee does not complete the initial training program to Spray Net's satisfaction, Spray Net may terminate the franchise agreement. In such a case, Spray Net may return the Initial Franchise Fee and 50% of the Training Fee to the franchisee, provided they sign a release and confidentiality agreement. However, if the franchisee withdraws from the training program or does not complete it, the Initial Franchise Fee is non-refundable.
