provided, however, that you will not be required to pay any initial franchise fee under any of those<br />

agreements. You understand and agree that any and all Franchise Agreements will be construed<br />

and exist independently of this Agreement. The continued existence of each Franchise<br />

Agreement will be determined by the terms and conditions of such Franchise Agreement. Except<br />

as specifically set forth in this Agreement, the establishment and operation of each Anytime<br />

Fitness Center must be in accordance with the terms of the applicable Franchise Agreement.<br />

4. Term. Unless sooner terminated in accordance with Section 5 ofthis Agreement, the<br />

Agreement for the last Anytime Fitness Center that is scheduled to be opened under the Development<br />

Schedule.<br />

5. Default and Termination. You will be deemed in default under this Agreement if you<br />

breach any of the terms of this Agreement or if you or any "affiliate" of yours breaches any of the terms<br />

of any Franchise Agreement or any other agreement that you or your affiliates have with us or our<br />

affiliates. For purposes of this Agreement, an "affiliate" of any person will be any person or entity that<br />

controls that person, is under the control of that person, or is under common control with that person.<br />

A. All rights granted in this Agreement immediately terminate upon written notice without<br />

opportunity to cure if: (i) you become insolvent, commit any affirmative action of insolvency or file any<br />

action or petition of insolvency, (ii) a receiver (permanent or temporary) of your property is appointed by<br />

a court of competent authority, (iii) you make a general assignment or other similar arrangement for the<br />

benefit of your creditors, (iv) a final judgment against you remains unsatisfied of record for thirty (30)<br />

any of your affiliates that have entered into Franchise Agreements with us, (vi) suit to foreclose any lien<br />

days, or is not in the process of being dismissed, (vii) you fail to meet your development obligations set<br />

forth in the Development Schedule, (viii) you or any of your affiliates open any Anytime Fitness Center<br />

before that person or entity has signed a Franchise Agreement with us for that center in the form we<br />

provide, (ix) you fail to comply with any other provision ofthis Agreement, or your or any of your<br />

affiliates fail to comply with any other agreement you or they have with us or our affiliates and do not<br />

correct the failure within thirty (30) days after written notice of that failure is delivered to the breaching<br />

party (except that if the failure to comply is the third failure to comply with any provision of any<br />

agreement that you or any of your affiliates have with us or an affiliate of ours within twelve (12)<br />

consecutive months, then we need not provide any opportunity to cure the default), or (x) we have<br />

delivered to you or any of your affiliates a notice of termination of a Franchise Agreement in accordance<br />

with its terms and conditions.<br />

6. Rights and Duties of Parties Upon Termination or Expiration. Upon termination or<br />

expiration of this Agreement, all rights granted to you will automatically terminate, and:<br />

A. All remaining rights granted to you to develop Anytime Fitness Centers under this<br />

Agreement will automatically be revoked and will be null and void. You will not be entitled to any<br />

refund of any fees.<br />

B. You must within five (5) business days of the termination or expiration pay all sums<br />

owing to us and our affiliates. In addition, you agree to pay as fair and reasonable liquidated damages<br />

(but not as a penalty) an amount equal to Ten Thousand Dollars ($10,000) for each undeveloped Anytime<br />

Fitness Center. You agree that this amount is in addition to the Development Fees paid under this<br />

Agreement, and is for lost revenues from Monthly Fees (as defined in the Franchise Agreement) and other<br />

amounts payable to us, including the fact that you were holding the development rights for those Anytime<br />

Fitness Centers and precluding the development of certain Anytime Fitness Centers in the Development<br />

Territory, and that it would be difficult to calculate with certainty the amount of damage we wiII incur.<br />
