otherwise address the following deficiencies:

additional changes have been requested by other states, please include only the pages showing those changes also.

The Commissioner may withdraw an application in which no activity has occurred for 120 days (Minnesota Statutes,

Subject: RE: F-8674, AKT Franchise, LLC

Hello Flora,

Thank you for the email below regarding the initial registration application for AKT Franchise, LLC. I have reviewed Item
6 and Item 11, and it appears that both locations.disclose an AKT University Tuition Fee of: (I) $1,500 retained by the
Franchisor, and (ii) $1,499 remitted to the franchisee where the training is provided.

In the "Amount" column in Item 6, it only lists the $1,500 fee because this is the applicable fee that is payable by a
franchisee if they choose to pay for their initial instructors to attend AKT University. This is explained in more detail in
Item 5:

We estimate that you will cover the AKT University Tuition Fee (currently, $1,500) that we charge to provide AKT
University to your initial instructors, so that those instructors can become Authorized AKT Instructors that offer and
provide the Approved Services at your Franchised Business. Prior to opening, we will provide AKT University to at least six
(6) instructors, as you determine appropriate in your discretion, and, ifyou choose to cover the costs for those instructors
to attend AKT University at our affiliate-owned studio, your cost will be between $9,000 (in AKT University Tuition Fees)
and approximately $17,994 (in AKT University Tuition Fees and, if necessary, travel and related expenses

If an instructor wants to attend AKT University after the franchised business is open and operating, and they attend at a
franchised study and incur the cost of $1,499 to the hosting franchisee + $1,500 to the franchisor, this will be an expense
borne by the instructor him or herself, and accordingly is not disclosable in Item 6.

I hope this clarifies our position, and addresses any concerns you have regarding these disclosure. Please let me know if I
can provide any additional explanation to facilitate your review.

Thank you very much for your time and attention to this matter.

Kindly,

Ben Staplin

Notes to Item 6 Chart:

All fees are uniformly imposed by and are payable to us, unless otherwise noted. No other fees or
payments are to be paid to us, nor do we impose or collect any other fees or payments for any third party. Any
fees paid to us are non-refundable unless otherwise noted. Fees payable to third parties may be reftindable based
on your individual arrangements. With.regards to any interest charged in connection with the fees set forth in the
chart above, the highest interest rate allowed by law in California is 10% annually.
1
Gross Sales. Except as provided below, the term "Gross Sales" means the total revenues you derive,
directly or indirectly from all business conducted upon, from or in connection with the Studio, less sales taxes or
similar taxes imposed by governmental authorities. (See Section 5.3 of the Franchise Agreement for a more
complete definition). Please note that we exclude revenue generated from the provision of the AKT University at
your Studio from the definition of "Gross Sales" because you are required to pay us a flat fee of $1,500 for each
individual that received the required training (as described more fully in the AKT University Tuition section of
the Chart above). Please see Section 5.3 of the Franchise Agreement for additional information.

You must participate in our then-current electronic funds transfer and reporting program(s). All fees owed
and any other amounts designated by us must be received or credited to our account by pre-authorized bank debit
by 5:00 p.m. on or before the applicable due date. Your franchised business may be located in a jurisdiction
whose taxing authority will subject us to tax assessments on payments you submit to us for the Royalty Fee
and Marketing Fund contributions. Under such circumstances, you will be required to adjust, or "gross up"
your payment to us to account for these taxes.

3
Marketing Fund. We reserve the right to establish a fund designed to market and otherwise develop
the brand, Proprietary Marks, System, Studios and/or Approved Services (the "Marketing Fund"). When we
establish a Marketing Fund, we may require you to make a Fund Contribution as described more fully above.
The Marketing Fund may be used for (among other things) product and technology development; signage;
creation, production and distribution of marketing, advertising, public relations and other materials in any
medium, including the internet; social media; administration expenses; brand/image campaigns; media; national,
regional and other marketing programs; activities to promote current and/or future Studios and the AKT brand;
agency and consulting services; research; and any expenses approved by us and associated with your Studio. We
will have sole discretion over all matters relating to the Marketing Fund. You must pay for your own local
advertising.

3
Insurance Policies. The minimum limits for coverage under many policies will vary depending on
various factors, including where you are located and the size of your Studio. See Item 8 of this Disclosure
Document for our minimum insurance requirements.

4
Audit Fees. In the event that an audit discloses an understatement of Gross Sales or other discrepancy,
in addition to the cost of the audit, you will be required to pay the marketing due on the amount of such
understatement, plus late fees and interest.
5
Alternative Supplier Approval. You may request the approval of an item, product, service or supplier.
We may require you to pre-pay any reasonable charges connected with our review and evaluation of any proposal.
6
Business Management Software Fee. We will make available to you a business management software
program that you will use in the operation of your Studio. Currently, the approved and required software for use
in the Studio is "ClubReady," an online/web-based business management program. You will pay the third-party
vendor directly for all fees associated with the use of the software. We have the right to access any and all
information stored in the program that pertains to the Studio through file transfer protocol or polling through the
Internet, at our discretion.

ITEM 18
PUBLIC FIGURES

We do not currently use any public figure or personality to promote the franchise.

ITEM 19
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE REPRESENTATIONS

The FTC's Franchise Rule permits a franchisor to provide information about the actual or potential financial
performance of its franchised and/or franchisor-owned outlets, if there is a reasonable basis for the information,
and ifthe information is included in the disclosure document. Financial performance information that differs from
that included in Item 19 may be given only if (1) a franchisor provides the actual records of an existing outlet you
are considering buying; or (2) a franchisor supplements the information provided in this Item 19, for example, by
providing information about possible performance at a particular location or under particular circumstances.

In Part I of this Item, we disclose the average "Gross Revenue" generated from April 1, 2017 through March 31,
2018 (the "Measurement Period") by the only two (2) Studios that were open and operated (i) by the founder of
the AKT brand over the entire Measurement Period, and (ii) utilizing the mark AKT and certain System
components (the "Disclosed Studios"). Three (3) pop-up Studios that are operated by the founder of the AKT
brand on a temporary basis, and, accordingly, are closed for most of the year, were excluded from this Item 19.

The Disclosed Studios are operated using the Proprietary Marks and System and continue to be owned by founder
of the AKT brand. We and the owner ofthe Disclosed Studios expect and intend to enter into franchise agreements
that will govern the operation of these Studios once we are able to offer/sellfranchiseswhere the Disclosed Studios
are located.

In Part II of this Item, we disclose the Gross Revenue generated by each Disclosed Studio, as well as the cost of
sales and certain other operating expenses incurred by that Disclosed Studio, over the Measurement Period.
58

2018 Franchise Disclosure Document
Accordingly, the financial performance representations contained in both Part I and Part I I ofthis Item 19 are
historical representations based on past performance of existing Studios. The following representations are based
on monthly profit and loss reports provided by the owners of the Disclosed Studios. No other Studios of any kind
were in existence during the Measurement Period.

Written substantiation for the financial performance representation will be made available to prospective
franchisees upon request.

Two company-owned Studios earned these amounts. Your individual results may differ. There is no
assurance that you'll sell as much.

Explanatory Notes to Part I I ofthis Item 19

1. Grass Revenue. The term "Gross Revenue" means the total revenue generated by a given Disclosed
Studio over the Measurement Period, including all revenue generated from the sale and provision of any
and all Approved Services at, from, or otherwise through, that Studio. The term "Gross Revenue" does
not include any amount of revenue the Disclosed Studios may have generated by providing the AKT
University (because the Covered Studios did not offer and generate revenue from the provision of AKT
University in the manner contemplated in this Disclosure Document).

2. Estimated Royalty. For each Disclosed Studio, the term "Estimated Royalty" means the Royalty Fee we
would have had to pay us over the Measurement Period if that Studio was owned by a franchisee and
governed by our current form ofFranchise Agreement, which would amount to seven percent (7%) of the
Traditional Revenue of that Studio over the Measurement Period.

a. It is important to note that the "Estimated Royalty" figures provided for each company-owned
Disclosed Studio in this Part II Chart are only an estimate. For clarification purposes, the
Disclosed Studios did not actually pay us this amount because they are not required to pay us any
Royalty in connection with operating these Studios. We included an Estimated Royalty in this
Chart for each Disclosed Studio amounting to seven percent (7%) that Studio's Gross Revenue
over the Measurement Period (i) because that is the amount you will be required to pay to us in
connection with the Gross Revenue you generate at your Franchised Business, and (ii) in a good
faith effort to provide you with an accurate picture of the type of expenses you might incur in
connection with your franchised Studio(s).

b. Under your Franchise Agreement, the Royalty described in Item 6 of this Disclosure Document
will only apply to your Gross Revenue. The amount payable to us, and the fee retained by you, in
connection with providing AKT University is not included in your Gross Revenue and will
accordingly not affect the amount of Royalties owed.

3. Rent. For each Disclosed Studio, the term "Rent" means the cumulative amount that Studio expended on
rent, common area maintenance and other amounts due under the lease for the premises of that Studio
over the Measurement Period. Please note that: (i) none of the Disclosed Studios received any "free rent"

Notes Regarding P r o s e d Studios and Item 19Genera^

1 When reviewing this hem 19aud evaluating our franchisee


note the following characteristics of Disclosed Studios described in thisttem 19(as compared toa
new Franchised Business):

a. The territory wherein each Disclosed Studio operates is located within the StateofNewYork,
where the AKThrand has likely obtained more ofareputation and garnered goodwill amongst
the relevant target audience(as compared to another region of tbe United States where there
are no Studio locations);

b The Disclosed Studios do not have a written franchise or other license agreement with
Franchisor as of the Issue Date of this Disclosure Document, but each of these locations(as
detailed more tully in Fart 11 of this Item) does utilize tbe Marks and System inamanner
similarto how you will he required to use sucb intellectual property in the operation ofanew
Franchised Business and we expect and intend to enter into franchise agreements that will
govern the Disclosed Studios once we are able to offer and sell franchises in tbe area where
the Disclosed Studios are located;

c. The Disclosed Studios were not required to pay us or any otber party an InitialFrancbise Fee
or the other initial tees described in item^of tbis Disclosure Document.At the same time,
none ofthe Disclosed Studios incurred the various otherpre-opening costs and expenses over
the Measurement Period that you are likely to incur in connection with tbe development ofa
new Franchised Business-this is because these Studios were all open and operating for some
time as ofthe date the Measurement Period commenced; and

d. Certain aspects of the DisclosedStudios are primarily managed onaday-to-day basis hya
single individual that manages such matters for both locations. While this engagement would
be similar to you engaginga^Designated Manager" or other third party to assist in managing
certain aspects ofyour Francbised Business, we do not expect tbat you will be engaging such
athird party at the outset of operating your new Francbised Business(unless you areamulti-
unit owner).

2. The figures provided in this Item exclude certain tax liabilities for which you will be responsible

3. The figures disclosed in this Item may not include all the professional tees or other administrative
expensesthatyou might incur inconnectionwithopeningandcommencingoperationsof your
Franchised Business, including legal and accounting tees.

4 Interest expense, interest income, depreciation, amortization and other income or expenses will vary
suhstantiaily from husiness to business, depending on the amount and kind offinancing you obtain to
establish your Franchised Business.You should consultwith your tax advisor regarding depreciation
and amortization schedules and the period over which assets of your Franchised Business may be
amortizedordepreciated,aswellastheeftect,ifany,ofanyrecentorproposedtax legislation Please
note that the figures set torth in this Item 19do not involve any depreciation or amortization.

5. Expenses andcosts, as well as the actual accountingandoperational methods employed by a


franchisee, may significantly impact profits realized in any particular operation Actual results will
vary from Franchised Business to Franchised Business, and we cannot estimate the results of a
particularFranchised Business The revenues and expenses ofyour business will be directly affected
by many factors, such as: (a) your DesignatedTerritory's geographic location and population
demographics; (b)advertising effectiveness based on market saturation;(c)whetber you operate tbe

business personally or hire a third party to serve as your Designated Manager; (d) your product and
service pricing; (e) vendor prices on materials, supplies and inventory; (f) personnel salaries and
benefits (life and health insurance, etc.); (g) insurance costs; (h) weather conditions; (i) ability to
generate customers; (j) customer loyalty; (k) employment conditions in the market; and (I) the efforts
you and your personnel put into your Franchised Business.

6. We suggest strongly that you consult your financial advisor or personal accountant concerning
financial projections and federal, state and local income taxes and any other applicable taxes that you
may incur in operating a Franchised Business.

Other than the preceding financial performance representation, we do not make any financial performance
representations. We also do not authorize our employees or representatives to make any such representations either
orally or in writing. If you are purchasing an existing AKT Studio, however, we may provide you with the actual
records of that outlet. If you receive any other financial performance information or projections of your future
income, you should report it to the our management by contacting Melissa Chordock at AKT Franchise, LLC,

and Urbanspoon), marketplace sites (such as eBay and Craigslist), Wikis, chat rooms and virtual worlds, that
allows participants to communicate online and form communities around shared interests and experiences. While
it can be a very effective tool for building brand awareness, it can also be devastating to a brand if used improperly.

in the Manual. Any use of Social Media by Franchisee pertaining to the Studio must be in good taste and not
linked to controversial, unethical, immoral, illegal or inappropriate content. Franchisor reserves the right to

"Whereas, Franchisor arid Franchisee are parties"to ah AKT Franchise Agreement executed on even date

Now, therefore in consideration of the mutual promises contained herein and as an inducement to
Franchisor to execute the Franchise Agreement, the parties agree as follows:

A. Franchisee shall pay any and all fees and other charges in connection with this Addendum and the
Franchise Agreement (including, without limitation, the Royalty Fees, contributions to the Fund and any other
payments due to Franchisor by Franchisee, and any applicable late fees and interest charges) by electronic,

B. Upon execution and delivery of this Agreement, Franchisee shall execute and deliver two (2) originals of
the "Electronic Debit Authorization" attached as Exhibit 3 to the Franchise Agreement, which authorizes
Franchisee's bank or other financial institution to accept debit originations, electronic debit entries, or other EFT,

set forth in Section 5 of the Franchise Agreement.

D. Franchisee is responsible for paying all service charges and other fees imposed or otherwise resulting

Franchise Agreement and/or this Addendum directly to Franchisor by check or other non-electronic means in lieu
of EFT at Franchisor's discretion. It shall be a non-curable event of default under Article 15 of the Franchise
Agreement i f Franchisee closes any bank account without completing all of the following forthwith after such
closing: ( I ) immediately notifying Franchisor thereof in writing, (2) immediately establishing another bank

Report on Financial Statement j


We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of AKT Franchise, LLC, as of March 22, 2018, and j
the related notes to the financial statement.

Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements


Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this financial statement in
accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this
includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation
and fair presentation of financial statement that are free from material misstatement, whether due to
fraud or error.

Auditors' Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of
America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance
about whether the financial statement is free from material misstatement.

An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statement. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the
assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statement, whether due to fraud or
error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's
preparation and fair presentation of the financial statement in order to design audit procedures that
are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the
effectiveness ofthe entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also
includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of
significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation
of the financial statement.

We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis

Note 2 - Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of presentation - The Company's financial statement has been prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("US GAAP"). The Company believes this
information includes all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, necessary to fairly present
the financial condition as of March 22, 2018.

Cash and cash equivalents - The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with
an original maturity of ninety days or less to be cash equivalents. As of March 22, 2018 the Company
carried no cash equivalents.

Concentration of credit risk - The cash balances of the Company are held primarily in one financial
institution. If cash balances exceed the amounts covered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation,
the excess balances could be at a risk of loss.

Fair value measurements - The Company's financial instruments, none of which are held for trading
purposes, include only cash. Management estimates that the fair value of all financial instruments at
March 22, 2018 does not differ materially from the aggregate carrying values of its financial instruments
recorded in the accompanying financial statement.
