Text

If the commissioner finds that it is necessary and appropriate for the protection of prospective franchisees or subfranchisors because the applicant has failed to demonstrate that adequate financial arrangements have been made to fulfill the franchisor’s obligations to provide real estate, improvements, equipment, inventory, training, or other items included in the offering, the commissioner may by rule or order require the escrow or impound of franchisee fees and other funds paid by the franchisee or subfranchisor until such obligations have been satisfied. At the option of the franchisor, the franchisor may furnish a surety bond as provided by rule of the commissioner.
