of a franchise can only be made by a prospectus that has been previously filed and
registered with the Department of Law of the State of New York. The application
for registration of an offering prospectus or the acceptance and filing thereof
by the Department of Law as required by the New York law does not constitute approval
of the offering or the sale of such franchise by the Department of Law or the attorney
general of New York.

Fransmart Compliance Statement
Fransmart is committed to full compliance with all applicable franchise laws. Our
value to our clients is based upon trust, confidence and integrity. Clients entrust
us with significant responsibilities in connection with their own businesses, and
any failure by our associates to comply with applicable laws adversely affects our
clients' business and, therefore, our business as well.
All of our associates are expected to strictly comply with (i) the Federal Trade
Commission Franchise Rule, including ensuring that all prospective franchisees receive
any and all required disclosures within the required timeframes; (ii) all state
franchise registration and disclosure laws, including ensuring that the associate
is properly registered to solicit, offer and/or sell the client's and our franchises
in any state which requires registration; and (iii) all consumer protection, unfair
or deceptive practice, and other laws, rules and regulations governing the solicitation,
offer and sale of franchises. In addition, and to help ensure that no inadvertent
violation of law may occur, an associate must carefully review, and understand a
client's and our franchise materials before offering or selling the applicable franchises.
Violations of federal and state franchise laws risk serious civil penalties and
in many instances, criminal consequences. Fransmart will not support or protect
any associate who is found to have willfully or deliberately violated any such laws.
