Item 22: Franchise Contracts

Item 22 of the amended Rule requires franchisors to attach a copy of all proposed agreements relating to the franchise offering that the franchisor provides or for which the franchisor makes arrangements. These include not only the franchise agreement, but leases, options, financing agreements, and purchase agreements. These attachments are part of the disclosure document. Typically, the attached agreements should be the same as those listed in the Table of Contents and in the Receipt.
