911 Restoration Franchise Inc. was formed as a California corporation on March 15, 2007. Their principal place of business is 7721 Densmore Avenue, Van Nuys, California 91406. They began offering franchises in 2007.

The “Franchised Business,” as described below, is established and operated under a comprehensive and unique system (the “System”). Our System includes programs for sales promotion, advertising programs, franchisee training, business administration, business operations methods, standards, product specifications, proprietary products, proprietary marks, confidential information, and other procedures and methods related to the operation of the Franchised Business, all of which may be changed, improved and further developed by us. Certain aspects of the System are more fully described in this Disclosure Document and in the Confidential Operations Manual (the “Manual”), which you should expect to evolve over time and to which you are granted access when you become our franchisee. The Franchised Business provides emergency clean-up of fire damage, water damage, mold damage and mold inspections, carpet cleaning, duct cleaning and crawl space cleaning under the name and mark “911 Restoration”. The System is identified by certain trade names, service marks, trademarks, logos, emblems and indicia of origin, including the mark “911 Restoration”, together with other trade names, service marks, trademarks, logos, emblems and indicia of origin which are now designated and may in the future be designated by us in writing for use with the System (the “Marks” or “Proprietary Marks”), as further described in Item 13. Our franchisees will generally be people or businesses that are already in similar businesses who will convert their existing businesses to Franchised Businesses. We estimate that you will need approximately 1,000 square feet of warehouse space and 300 square feet of office space for your Franchised Business. You will be called upon to provide the services that our System offers and you must respond accordingly. Your clients will include homeowners, property managers, insurance companies, or others that are responsible for real property maintenance. We offer 3 separate franchises in this Disclosure Document, although we may not necessarily grant you the opportunity to purchase under any of these programs. “Traditional Franchises” are offered to qualified candidates who are not currently operating a business similar or related to a Franchised Business. If you purchase a Traditional Franchise, you will sign our Franchise Agreement (“Exhibit B”) to own and operate a Franchised Business in an assigned territory (a “Territory”). Traditional Franchises have the option to obtain conditional rights to obtain franchises for additional geographic territories (each, an “Additional Franchised Territory”) for reduced initial franchise fees payable over 2 years in consideration for the payment of a $5,000 deposit (the “Deposit”) to us, in advance, for each Additional Franchised Territory. Qualified candidates who desire to obtain Additional Franchise Territory will sign our Multi-Territory Deposit Amendment (the “Deposit Amendment”) to the Franchise Agreement for your first and (if applicable) second Additional Franchised Territory when you sign your Franchise Agreement for your first Territory, and will subsequently sign individual Franchise Agreements for each Additional Franchised Territory. You are not required to develop and open any Additional Franchised Territory. However, if you choose to acquire an Additional Franchised Territory, each Additional Franchised Territory must be opened by the deadline stated in your Multi-Territory Deposit Agreement. An Additional Franchised Territory will be considered to have been “opened” after the then-current Franchise Agreement for the Additional Franchised Territory is executed and business operations actually begin in the Additional Franchised Territory. “Conversion Franchises” are offered to qualified candidates who are currently operating a business similar or related to a Franchised Business and who wish to convert their existing business into a Franchised Business for an assigned Territory. If you purchase a Conversion Franchise, you will sign our Franchise Agreement and our Conversion Addendum in the form attached as Exhibit J to the Franchise Agreement. Your existing business's average annual gross revenue for the 3 prior years must exceed $300,000 to qualify to purchase a Conversion Franchise. “Micro-Market Franchises” are offered to qualified candidates who desire to operate a Franchised Business in a smaller Territory than the Territories for Traditional Franchises and Conversion Franchises. If you purchase a Micro-Market Franchise, you will sign our Franchise Agreement for your Territory. “Multiple Franchise Owner” are offered to qualified candidates who desire to operate more than one Franchised Business. The number of franchises that can be operated by any one Franchise Owner varies and is determine by the Franchisor. As a Multiple Franchise Owner, the Franchisor allows consolidation of certain operating fees when the individual franchise territories are operated from one office and the territories are contiguous geographically. The number of franchises that can be operated under one branch office vary according to market and will be determined by the Franchisor.
