Fitness franchises offered and sold in the state of Minnesota:<br />

The Minnesota Addendum is only applicable if you are a resident of Minnesota or if your<br />

1. Minn. Stat. Section 80C.21 and Minn. Rule 2860.4400J prohibit Franchisor from<br />

requiring litigation to be conducted outside Minnesota. In addition, nothing in this Agreement can<br />

abrogate or reduce any of your rights as provided for in Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 80C or your rights to<br />

any procedure, forum or remedies provided for by the laws of the jurisdiction.<br />

2. Franchisor will comply with Minn. Stat. Section 80C.14, subds. 3,4 and 5, which require,<br />

except in certain specified cases, that the Franchisee be given 90 days notice oftermination (with 60 days<br />

to cure) and 180 days notice for nonrenewal of the Franchise Agreement.<br />

3. Section 3 is revised to include the following:<br />

"To the extent required by the Minnesota Franchise Act, Franchisor will<br />

protect your rights to use the trademarks, service marks, trade names,<br />

costs or expenses arising out of any claim, suit or demand regarding your<br />

use of the marks, provided you are using the Names and Marks in<br />

accordance with this Agreement."<br />

4. Franchisor shall not require Franchisee to assent to a release, assignment, novation or<br />

waiver that would relieve any person from liability imposed by Minnesota Statutes, Sections 80C.0! to<br />

80C.22, provided that the foregoing shall not bar the voluntary settlement of disputes.<br />

5. Each provision of this Addendum shall be effective only to the extent, with respect to<br />

such provision, that the jurisdictional requirements of the Minnesota Franchise Law or the Rules and<br />

Regulations promulgated thereunder by the Minnesota Commissioner of Commerce are met<br />

independently without reference to this Addendum.<br />
