G6 Hospitality Franchising LLC is a Delaware limited liability company organized in January 2005, whose original name was Accor Franchising North America, LLC. The name was changed in July 2012. Their principal business address is 4001 International Parkway, Carrollton, Texas 75007. They began offering franchises for Motel 6 Motels in January 2005.

We offer franchises for the establishment and operation of transient budget lodging facilities offering lodging services and limited amenities at a price that competes directly with other brands in the budget segment of the lodging industry and which operate under the “Motel 6” name and mark and the Motel 6 System, as described below (the “Motel 6 Motel”). The Motel 6 System is a distinctive system (the “System”) whose distinguishing characteristics include, among others, the Property Management System Software (the “Software”), the Property Management System (the “Computer System”), a proprietary reservation system (the “Reservation System”), and a marketing program (the “Marketing Program”). We periodically modify aspects of the Motel 6 System. Motel 6 Motels are identified by the name and mark “Motel 6,” and by certain other trade names, service marks, trademarks, logos, emblems and indicia of origin (the “Proprietary Marks”). We may change, or designate other Proprietary Marks for use in the System. The terms, conditions, and obligations under which you operate the Motel are described in a franchise agreement that you and we sign before you begin operations (the “Franchise Agreement”). You must also sign a Software Agreement with us for the Software used in operating the Motel. Before signing a Franchise Agreement or the Software Agreement, you must sign and submit a franchise application including a credit check (the “Application”) to us. The Application, the Franchise Agreement, and the Software Agreement are referred to in Item 22 below, and copies of the documents are attached as exhibits to this disclosure document. To promote uniform quality in Motels operating under the Motel 6 Brand, we have prepared confidential operating Manuals and other resources (the “Manuals”) which contain mandatory and recommended Standards and procedures for operating your Motel and maintaining consistent quality across the Brand. The franchises described in this disclosure document are offered for the operation of newly constructed motels and for the conversion of existing properties to Motel 6 Motels or renovation of the property as required under your Franchise Agreement. If you are granted a franchise for a motel to be built, you must sign a New Construction Addendum (“Construction Addendum”) and a New Construction Assistance Agreement (“Construction Assistance Agreement”). If you are granted a franchise for a conversion property, you must sign a Renovation Addendum to the Franchise Agreement (“Renovation Addendum”) and a Renovation Assistance Agreement (“Renovation Assistance Agreement”). If you satisfy our qualifications, we may offer you franchises for both a Motel 6 Motel and a Studio 6 motel (“Studio 6 Motel”) to be operated at the same location, either within the same building or in separate buildings adjacent to one another, but in each case with a shared lobby (the “Dual Brand Operation”). To obtain a franchise for a Motel 6 Motel to be operated as part of a Dual Brand Operation, you must execute a Franchise Agreement for the Motel 6 Motel, a franchise agreement for a Studio 6 Motel (“Studio 6 Franchise Agreement”) in the form attached as an exhibit to the Studio 6 Franchise Disclosure Document, and the Dual Brand Amendments to both the Motel 6 Franchise Agreement and the Studio 6 Franchise Agreement. You must also satisfy all of our then-current requirements for Dual Brand Operations, which may include the following, among others: (1) the same individual or entity must be the franchisee under both the Motel 6 Franchise Agreement and the Studio 6 Franchise Agreement; (2) the Dual Brand Operation must contain a minimum total room count of 100 rooms, with no less than 30% of the total rooms to be included in the inventory of the Studio 6 Motel; and (3) we must approve the proposed room configuration, layout and any other changes to both the Motel 6 Motel and the Studio 6 Motel. Unless otherwise defined, all defined terms used in this disclosure document will have the meanings given to them in the Franchise Agreement.
