What This Means (2025 FDD)
According to Stretch Zone's 2025 Franchise Disclosure Document, as the Area Developer, you may terminate the Area Development Agreement under any grounds permitted by law.

This provision offers a degree of flexibility for the Area Developer, allowing termination based on legal principles that might not be explicitly detailed in the franchise agreement. It is important to understand what constitutes legally permissible grounds for termination in the relevant jurisdiction, as these laws can vary.
