4. I.
The
Franchisor,
its
Predecessors
and
Affiliates
Our
name
is
I
-800-Flooded,
Inc.
We
are
a
Nevada
corporation.
We
have
no
affiliates
or
predecessors.
Our
principal
business
is
licensing
and
franchising
the
tradename
and
telephone
number
"
I
-800-Flooded,"
to
which
we
have
exclusive
rights.
We
have
no
other
business
activities.
We
do
not
engage
in
the
flood
damage
business
ourselves.
The
franchise
consists
of
the
following:
(a)
the
non-exclusive
right
to
use
the
tradename
"
I-800-Flooded"
in
your
geographical
area;
and
(b)
the
exclusive
right
to
receive
and
respond
to
telephone
calls
to
the
I-800-Flooded
number
from
the
telephone
prefixes
that
you
license
from
us.
There
are
no
requirements
that
you
buy
advertising
or
marketing
materials
from
us
although
they
are
available
if
you
want
them.
We
do
not
participate
in
the
management
of
your
business
in
any
way,
shape,
or
form.
We
only
ask
that
you
refrain
from
any
activity
that
will
bring
our
tradename
into
disrepute
and
that
you
indemnify
us
in
case
of
any
claim
advanced
against
us
on
account
of
your
activities.
Most
franchisees
will
have
an
existing
water
damage
restoration
business
and
will
be
interested
in
expanding
their
market
share
through
use
of
the
800-Flooded
tradename
and
number.
We
do
not
operate
the
kinds
of
businesses
being
franchised.
The
potential
customers
for
the
business
being
offered
to
the
franchisees
include
principally
owners
of
real
property
damaged
by
water,
such
as
might
result
from
natural
flooding,
faulty
construction,
or
burst
pipes.
We
are
not
aware
of
any
regulations
specific
to
the
industry
other
than
those
which
might
be
imposed
by
the
state
or
local
authorities
in
your
area,
such
as
the
requirement
for
a
contractor's
license
or
a
business
license
for
the
municipality
in
which
you
are
located.
There
is
no
competition
for
the
I-800-Flooded
tradename
or
number.
We
have
the
exclusive
rights
to
both
the
tradename
and
the
800
number.
At
this
time
we
are
not
aware
of
any
use
of
a
confusingly
similar
tradename
anywhere
in
the
United
States.
Of
course,
there
is
significant
competition
for
the
water
damage
restoration
business,
and
companies
are
engaged
in
this
business
throughout
the
United
States
and
Canada.
Our
principal
place
of
business
is
2156
West
Hillside
Drive,
Central
Point,
OR
97501.
We
are
a
new
company
organized
in
Nevada
on
or
about
July
1,
2001.
Our
agent
for
service
of
process
is
the
California
Corporations
Commissioner,
320
West
4th
Street,
Los
Angeles,
CA
90013-2344.
We
have
not
offered
franchises
in
any
other
line
of
business.
5. 2.

8.
Restrictions
on
Sources
of
Products
and
Services
We
have
no
required
specifications,
designated
suppliers,
or
approved
suppliers
for
goods,
services,
or
real
estate
relating
to
your
franchise
business.
We
will
not
derive
revenue
from
your
purchases
or
leases.
You
are
not
required
or
expected
to
purchase
marketing
materials
or
any
other
items
from
us
such
as
services,
fixtures,
equipment,
inventory,
computer
hardware
or
software,
or
real
estate.
Marketing
materials
are
available
separately
for
purchase
and
it
is
probably
to
your
advantage
to
use
them
because
we
can
probably
make
them
available
to
you
at
a
lower
cost
than
comparable
items
which
you
would
purchase
independently,
due
to
volume
discounts.
However,
there
are
no
purchases
required
either
by
written
agreement
or
by
our
practice.
We
do
not
issue
or
modify
specifications.
We
have
no
standards
which
we
impose
on
franchisees
except
that
they
comply
with
all
applicable
laws
and
regulations
and
that
they
engage
in
no
business
practices
that
would
bring
the
I
-800-Flooded
tradename
into
disrepute.
We
grant
approval
to
existing
water
damage
restoration
firms
if
the
prefixes
are
available.
We
have
no
criteria
for
approval
except
availability
of
the
prefixes,
although
we
would
strongly
discourage
anyone
without
an
existing,
viable,
ongoing
water
damage
restoration
business
from
investing
in
this
franchise.
The
franchisee
will
be
informed
immediately
whether
his

to
purchase
a

is
approved.

any
of
its
obligations
under

Agreement.

any
law
or
regulation

its
business,
or
the
Franchisee
commits
an

or
moral
turpitude
which
might

or

Territory.
You
have
no
exclusive
geographical
area,
but
you
do
have
the
exclusive
right
to
receive
telephone
calls
to
I
-800-Flooded
for
the
telephone
number
prefixes
that
you
license
from
us.
The
word
"territory"
whenever
it
appears
in
this
offering
circular
or
in
the
franchise
agreement
refers
to
the
telephone
number
prefixes
that
we
have
licensed
to
each
franchisee,
not
to
a
geographical
territory.
We
charge
the
initial
franchise
fee
for
each
prefix.
We
will
not
allow
anyone
else
to
receive
calls
from
the
telephone
number
prefixes
which
we
have
licensed
to
you.
We
will
not
establish
a
company-owned
outlet
or
other
channel
of
distribution
using
the
your
number
prefixes.
Continuation
of
your
license
does
not
depend
on
achievement
of
any
particular
sales
volume.
Your
license
will
not
be
altered
or
terminated
as
long
as
you
comply
with
your
obligations
under
the
franchise
and
licensing
agreement.
We
do
not
guarantee
that
there
are
any
particular
number
of
people
living
within
the
geographical
area
served
by
your
telephone
number
prefixes.
You
may
acquire
other
telephone
number
prefixes
from
us
if
they
are
available
in
your
geographical
area.
Other
franchisees
may
advertise
and
do
work
within
your
geographical
area
and
vice
versa.
There
is
no
restriction
on
where
you
may
work,
nor
any
restriction
on
where
other
franchisees
may
work.
The
only
restriction
is
that
no
other
franchisee
will
get
calls
from
the
telephone
number
prefixes
which
have
been
reserved
for
you.

In
addition,
we
have
the
federally
registered

to

or

trademark
listed

in
a
manner
material

We

may
have
the
option
to

at
your
own
expense,
and
we
reserve
the
right
to
do
so
as

As
a
practical
matter,
it
is
extremely
unlikely
that
any
third

would
attempt
to
use
the

apart
from
the
number,
which
no
third
party
can
access
without
our
knowledge
or
consent.

of
the
use
or
claims
or
fights
to
a
trademark
identical
to
or
confusingly
similar
to
the
trademark
licensed
to
you.
We
are
not
required
to
take
affirmative
action
if
you
do
notify
us
of
such
uses
or
claims.
In
case
of
administrative
proceedings
or
litigation
involving
us,
we
have
the
right
to
control
it.
We
will
protect
you
against
claims
of
infringement
or
unfair
competition
arising
out
of
your
use
of
the
trademark.
We
will
assume
your
defense
and
indemnify
you
for
expenses
and
damages
if
you
become
a
party
to
an
administrative
or
judicial
proceeding
against
your
will
involving
a
trademark
licensed
by
us
to
you,
or
if
the
proceeding
is
resolved
unfavorably
to
you.
If
you
are
required
to
modify
or
discontinue
the
use
of
the
trademark
as
a
result
of
a
proceeding
or
settlement,
the
difference
between
your
franchise
fee
and
the
net
revenue
you
derived
from
the
franchise
will
be
refunded.
We
do
not
know
of
either
superior
prior
rights
or
infringing
uses
that
could
materially
affect
the
franchisee's
use
of
the
principal
